“I wanna live not just survive.”
— Unknown
Ranma was quite shocked that he was being called out by a stranger, though it's not the first time he's been yelled at like this. ❝ Whoa, relax. ❞ She seemed really upset and he wondered why. Perhaps it's her first time being around here. It didn't matter much to him, he just wanted to leave and stop being yelled at.
❝You're sure yelling at me like Akane would. ❞ Ranma sighed. ❝ Listen, I don't know if you're new here but, this type of thing happens all the time. Plus, it ain't my fault there were explosives. People challenge me left and right and I have to deal with it. ❞ He shrugged and stretched out his arms.
❝ I'm a martial artist. It's what I do. What we all do. If you're done complaining, I gotta get going. ❞
She couldn't help the fact that the LOUD SHOUTS from the gathered crowd drew her attention as well. As much as Ami would like to better in some aspects, she was still a NOSY TEEN & there was no fighting that. In fact, she though it was possibly just a traveling act? Something SIMPLE & FUN. Not a fight that had with it added EXLPOSIVES. The fact that the crowd wasn't stopping this was already alarming & the boy who DANCED around like it was just another day was jarring to watch.
But it finally stopped & the shock of what she just witness did not subside. The look of WORRY mixed a bit of AGITATION was plastered all over her face. Ami found herself slightly stomping over to the other. ❝ Just what were you doing ? ! You could have gotten yourself & others HURT ! ❞ Ami didn't even ACKNOWLEDGE the name he called her. ❝ This was unacceptable ! Having a fight in the middle of the street ! Have you no manners ? ! ❞
SO, I mention it in my about, but I will go into in some headcanons about how Ranma had a rough upbringing. His father, though he loves him, caused Ranma trauma due to his torturous methods in training and just his mental worth. I feel this can be assumed when you read up on how Genma trained Ranma but in the show it's all played for laughs. In any case, this is how I see it and it will be a part of my portrayal. I was thinking of tagging tw: mental abuse ? but I'm not sure. If anyone needs it tagged specifically, let me know! ♥
Ranma was in his own world as he made his preparations. He took training seriously. Especially when his father was watching over him. Ranma has a ton of pressure from his father, he uses his harsh tactics to make him stronger. ❝ Oh? ❞ He said as he came back into reality. ❝ Sureeee. You just wanna tag along so you can criticize everything I do yeah? ❞
Once his backpack was secured. he crossed his arms behind his head. Honestly, he wanted her to tag along. He wanted Akane to see him become stronger and how strong he was already. He loved to show off. Of course he wouldn't say any of this out loud. He rather just be a jerk about it.
❝ Well, I'll make sure to thank Kasumi for saving me. ❞ He gave a foolish grin, laughing to himself. ❝ Seriously, you better not complain. I'm ready to push the limits with my training. ❞
❝ I'm not tagging along because I like you or anything, @proudfighter ! ❞ And if she does, who even cares ( she knows he doesn't ). ❝ I - I'm doing it because ━━ ❞ C'mon Akane, think of an excuse, a great one that won't make him suspect anything. ❝ Because my father ordered me to ! ❞ Not entirely wrong yet more than an order it had been a SUGGESTION.
His monthly trip for an intense weekend of training has come and just like before she wishes to go. Behind her rough exterior Akane shows her tenderness in the constant concern she holds for the other, worrying endlessly on her mind though never saying it out loud. She wants to make sure he'll be SAFE AND SOUND from beginning to end, a guarantee that everything will work out regardless of the adversities they come across to. Perhaps if he knew of such thoughts, he wouldn't be so reluctant to let her join. . .
❝ I WON'T COOK this time so you can rest assured. ❞ A slight frown mixed with a flustered look is all she has to offer. ❝ And Kasumi packed enough food for the three of us. ❞ Yes, three, of course Mr. Saotome was going to be with them. ❝ Hey ! Are you even listening ? ! ❞
STARTER CALL.
