Fic post from my archive.

Sunao

Ryouma and Tezuka have a mild clash of wills, over which Ryouma gets rather frustrated. Drama, I-3

Note: This particular story really came out of my personal opinion that the whole affair with Kevin Smith in the anime was rather inconsistent with the way Ryouma and Tezuka normally behave.

Ryouma could hear the mocking undertone perfectly well, and stifled a grin. It wasn't quite time to grin at this one, yet. Not until Ryouma had him on the court.

Silly girl, it wasn't the blackmail. If it were, Tezuka would have told me how to finish the multi-part. ^_^; But it's good when inspiration coincides with doing something nice for someone, so here you are. <3

*nods* Considering that there's almost nothing Ryouma really wants to do that Tezuka doesn't let him, and, in fact, encourage him to do, it's really hard to tell. I thought the senbatsu arc's take was over the edge. Actually, the movie/ova/whatever seemed like a reasonable variation: if Tezuka orders Ryouma off, he'll do as he's told, but he'll also keep an eye out for opportunities to do what he wants without explicitly going against what he's been told. Possibly because he knows perfectly well that Tezuka's own competitive temper will get the better of him eventually. It took a while to decide on a reason not to fight that would stand up to Tezuka's own temper enough to make him hold back Ryouma's. Such impulsive boys...

*grins* Yeah, the Ryouma-sticks-it-to-someone eps were an awful lot of fun.

Really appreciate it. It's nice when someone you barely know makes some kind of effort.

I think that's a good point. Ryoma's mother is a lawyer - want to bet that Ryoma would be an EXPERT at getting around the rules??? And Tezuka knows this, which is why he has to lay it down bare when it comes down to it.

^_^ I miss those eps.
