WORDS: 400 | The Real Rawr Redhead  


Feels like ages since I last went skating~? Headed to Hargeon with something of a glum spirit and yet now through some combination of events here almost feeling like she was lamenting the fact that her shifts at the pool and such were coming to an end, the rarity which was a summertime skating rink was something that the regretful redhead could not ignore, and so Samantha Salucci had laced up a pair of skates and readied herself for a little bit of expression atop the ice rather than using it on this occasion.
Not since those times with mom and… Looking forward to the chance as well as she wobbled her way from the bench she had used to slip into her sharp bottomed footwear and onto that smooth and glossy surface, all the same there came a double helping of bitterness which might arrive with the sweetness of enjoying the event not only because of how her looming departure would weigh upon her, but also because of the memory of the last time she had done something like this. Happier times when it came to her family life, that was for sure.

Suppose I better see if I still got it…? Not that she particularly wanted to let the sour taste of what had happened when it came to her parents ruin this experience when she was already enjoying the best mood she had felt for a while, the scarlet haired skater let loose a huffing breath and focused herself instead upon the activity at hand, and with that and a desire to prove to herself that she could do something special even with a bit of rust upon her skills she moved from a slow glide into more of a pushing rush.

Well, well, not bad Samantha~! Driving her heels into the slick surface beneath herself a few times to build up some decent speed and break away from the pack of others who seemed to be drifting across the ice until she found a nice clear and open stretch between groups, those baby blues moved to one side and then the other to check she was safe and then in a moment she thrust herself into the air and twisted, performing a little turn before landing back upon her feet in a mostly stable fashion before then smiling with satisfaction at the result. Clearly she hadn’t lost too many steps, eh~?

Ryuuji
Ryuuji had never been skating in his life but he wanted to give it a chance since it was being offered and he knew if he didn't do in now when would he be able to do it again? He had no ideas where there are even places to ice skate besides here so he made his way there and went to the counter and he got a pair of skates then he went to the bench and sat down and he started tying his skates and he made sure they were nice and tight so he wouldn't come out of them and then he tried to stand up and he failed nearly falling on his face but he caught himself. He kept onto his feet and then he used the railing to get to the ice and he was a bit worried about this now and he was having regrets about coming to do this but he had already committed and got the skates and was about to get on the ice.

He had to do it he told himself as he steps out onto the ice with his skates and he instantly fell on his ass and he grabbed onto the wall and pulled himself back onto his feet and then he used the side to slowly go around the outside and he wondered if he was looking like an idiot, not only was he not able to skate right but he had come alone and he looked around seeing the couples and the families that were enjoying the skating and the fun and he wondered if he should have invited someone to have come with him not like he had a large group of friends anyways to come with him. He also wouldn't have wanted to have been making a mess of himself in front of other people that knew him anyways so he was just going to suck it up.

He focused on his skates and he thought about giving himself a body shield but he figured that it was a bad idea as that would probably stick out and draw more attention to himself as he kept going slow by the side of the skating area like a fresh born fawn that was not yet about to fully make use of it's legs and was wobbling and their legs giving out and he wondered how other people were doing this so easily and not just falling all over the place.

WORDS: 410 | The Real Rawr Redhead


Wait, isn’t that…? The burgundy belle beaming a little bit at her own performance when she spied a soul who she was able to recognise, by this stage she had to be sure that the mark of Fairy Tail carried some kind of magnetic quality when those baby blues yet again seemed to clap eyes upon that snowy hair colour and well cut frame of the fellow who she had seen so very many times at this event, though the fact seemed to draw more of a smile than a sense of suspicion at this point.
“Well, well, well… Seems Mr Swim Star ain’t so hot on the ice, huh~?” As such Samantha seeming to skip off with the intention of sliding in next to her silvery haired senior with a lopsided grin upon her face, after having found the young man proving the better when it came to the competition in the pool there felt like some degree of satisfaction in seeing him struggling to move across the ice in the manner of a newborn foal, and because of that the fiery femme tilted her head and teased him a little for his lack of skill or experience though more so in a playful way than anything else.

“This your first time, Ryu~?” By no means holding her defeat in the water against him childishly and instead feeling like in many ways the bond between the pair of them had only seemed to deepen with the addition of an element of rivalry, in many ways the redhead viewed the boy who she had met on the beach and so many times since as practically the first and closest thing she had to a friend in her guild, and for that reason though smug was ultimately willing to lend some expertise as well.
“I can give you some pointers if you like~? Pay ya back a little for helping me out before…?” As such holding out a gloved hand in order to help better steady him and happy to act as his guide across this smooth and slippery surface if he felt so inclined, Miss Salucci had not forgotten how he had shown her a kind spirit more than once as they had struck up this fledgling connection, and quietly relished the chance to impress him in an arena which finally felt like her own. After all, magic or no magic she wanted to prove she could hold her own, right~?

Ryuuji
Ryuuji looked at the woman that was coming up on him and talking to him and he wondered what to even say to her as she was seeing him suck at something. "I only got lucky at beating you in swimming. It wasn't all that great and you know that, but yes I am not so good on the ice but I can clearly see you are a graceful goddess on the ice~" He teased her back for calling him Mr swim star. He was not a swimming star and he was not even sure how he beat her unless she held back or maybe she was not trying her hardest. He was glad he could win to have won but he didn't have that kind of belief in himself to have been able to beat someone that is a natural to the water like Sam seemed to be when she was in the pool.

"Yes this is my first time trying to skate, I figured how many more chances would I get to ice skate, so I went why not but clearly I lack the finesse to skate very well." He had started to lose his balance again and he tried not to swing his arms to much as she was close to him and he didn't want to accidently hit you or cause some other kind of misunderstanding if he bumped her or fell into her and knocking her over. He got his balance back and he took a deep breath as he seemed to not have fallen again or have done anything that might get him in trouble or the dog house with this woman. "So you skate a lot or is it a small learning curve for you to get back to it?" He ad to wonder as she was seeming to be as firm as a tree on her skates while he feels like he is about to see what his own butt looks like from the back as he falls.

When the woman offers her hand out to him he looked at her and then he hand and then he took her hand to see if he could handle it and if he was going to fall he was going to let go of her so she isn't pulled on top of him or so he doesn't land on her or hurt her. He can feel eyes on them from other people that were skating around and he spoke low so only she can hear him. "Aren't you worried some people might get the wrong idea by seeing you holding my hand?" He was sure that she had thought about that before she had offered him her hand and started helping him skate but for some reason he was feeling more stable while he was skating with her, even if she was smaller than him she seemed to know just how to go and the speed that is right so he doesn't just end up falling and eating ice.

WORDS: 440 | The Real Rawr Redhead


“W-Whaaaat? Goddess…? I do alright, I guess? Ain’t that hard really…” The feisty femme a little bit flustered when her guildmate seemed to compare her ability upon the ice to something divine, it didn’t take long for those cheeks to glow at the compliment which she received, and though Samantha tried to downplay the suggestion at the same time a piece of her was happy that she had apparently impressed him enough for such words of praise, and was likely why she seemed to mutter and mumble in response to his words.
“Ehhhh, I’m sure you’ll pick it up with a bit of practice and a decent teacher~?” The scarlet skater shaking her head soon after when her senior seemed to say that he lacked the skill needed to do well at the same and our leading lady in firm disagreement, while it was true that talent and the like certainly played a role both in the speed one learned and the ultimate potential one had for this kind of thing, ultimately experience and persistence were the real keys to the kingdom as she saw it and as such she refuted the idea that it would take more than a spot of effort and the right tips to get the hang of it.

“I used to go a lot when I was kid, with my parents? In winter the lakes near Baska would freeze and lotsa people did~” Meanwhile the magenta marvel leaving her mitt in place and offering a little bit of her own balance to steady Ryuuji once he had hold of her hand, for a moment the smile she wore seemed to fade for a second as the question seemed to lift memories which were rather bittersweet given how she had learned this kind of thing for the sake of showing off for her father, though ultimately at least part of the hurt which lingered with that fact was soothed by the image of many of the folk with whom she shared her home skating together in frolicsome harmony.
“W-We?! Waaaahhh!!!” Not that such sense of accord seemed to linger when next it seemed that the lad would point out how there was an air of romance in the image of them skating hand in hand, the astonishment which such a suggestion birthed seemed to see Miss Salucci stumble a little in a sort of ice rink equivalent of spitting out her drink, before the resulting cascade of motions saw her equilibrium seeming entirely compromised and cast her to the ground because of it. And perhaps with her, any who might be holding her hand as well…

Ryuuji
He heard her story and he wondered how Baska looked in the winter if they have skating like that. He guessed that he would have to go and see for himself if that was real not that he didn't trust her just he hadn't heard of it in his time in the country but he had mostly stayed to the east so he hadn't gone that far in to really see if it was something that happened and existed. He could feel her hand had slightly gripped tighter on his hand as if she was remembering something and he wondered if talking about that had brought something up in her mind that would make her feel something like that. He had no idea of much about her or her past but he would let that come in due time if she were to come into need or want to tell him for now he needed to focus and keep skating so he wouldn't make himself look worse than he had already done.

He saw the look on her face after he had said what he had about it looking like that might be a couple to other people that were around them and he could see that it had clearly panicked her, but before he could say anything to try and calm the situation something happened and the woman went down and she still was holding his hand so he was pulled down along with her. The man had fallen on to her and he used his free hand to push himself up and he found himself right above her looking down into her eyes his face right in front of her face. He spoke softly to her as he was not sure if she was okay or if she had hit her head but he could see that her cheeks were fully flushed as his eyes looked into her blue eyes. "Are you okay Sam? Did you hit your head or get hurt?" He got his knee under his and his leg had gently bumped her leg as his free moved toward her head to check and make sure that she wasn't bleeding from the back of her head or if there was any kind of bump.

WORDS: 510 | The Real Rawr Redhead


“Unnfff!” The lass likely to hit the ground with quite the clatter even without the ‘extra help’ which she was given by the toppling form of her guildmate along with her, Sam let loose a guttural groan as she slammed into the ice with her student atop her, and as such was left a little dazed by the experience both for the impact and the rather startling moments which preceded it, which was not helped by the way in which her head seemed to snap back and crack against the ice as she did so.
“What am I…?” As such the amaranth amazon seeming to blink as she found herself suddenly floored by the fall and laying flat on her back, her lashes flapped in something of a flurry over those baby blues for a moment as she tried to process what had happened to her, and then glanced a little ways downward to see just what it was which was now bearing down upon her frame.

“R-Ryuuji!” Such curiosity only seeming to coincide with the effort of her guildmate to check her over and as such the lass looking down as the lad lurched up to inspect her, the sapphire stare of the stunner seemed to widen with surprise and shock as she found herself practically face to face with her fellow fairy, and only too rapidly did her cheeks and her ears as well grow rosy because of it.
“I’m fine! Fine!” Along with that the words about the pair of them seeming like a couple ringing through her ears yet again thanks to a position which looked to be rather intimate given how entangled they seemed, the response from the redhead was rather knee jerk as she declared herself to have survived the accident unscathed, and almost immediately afterward seemed to try to scamper away from this half embrace by flailing her arms and attempting to create a sense of separation between the pair of them.

“A-Ahh… Huhhhh?” Such effort seeming to be interrupted however as the building pace and intensity of her pulse seemed to overpower her panic for a moment and sent a sharp and shooting pain outward from the back of her skull, once more confusion seemed to abound for Miss Salucci as she found something throbbing at the back of her head, and as such lifted a hand as best she could to inspect the damage.
“That ain’t good…” Wincing as soon as she touched the area and noting not only a rather significantly sized bump seeming to form but along with it an odd and wet feeling in her hair as well, the scarlet stunner certainly lived up to the name as she pulled that paw back around to see what had dampened it and saw redness now coating her fingers as a result, she tilted her head toward her would-be medic and showed off the damage in an almost kiddish fashion, all while maintaining what now must have seemed an uncommon calm as well. After all, she tended to deal physical injuries a lot better than emotional ones, right~?

He laughed softly as the woman seemed to panic and make space between them, he guessed she must be already as she seemed to not lack her usual energy of panic I am a strong woman that don't need no man, don't even say you or I are like that. Then he saw her make a motion like something had in fact been hurt and he he watched her touch the back of her head and then make a bit of a worrying face before she had pulled her hand back and saw the blood on it. He got close to her as she had turned her head to show him and he moved in close and gently touched around the back of her head being as gentle as he could till he found the split in the back of her head. "Okay this is probably going to feel weird just try to stay still okay? I am going to use a small barrier to hold the wound to slow the bleeding then I am going to use some healing magic okay?"

He moved his hand and a very small barrier appeared holding against the wound to try and stop the bleeding and then he focused mana into his hand and started to heal the wound on her head so it would look as good as new when he was done with the place she had split her head. He then released the barrier and then he got back in front of her and he looked into her eyes. "Are you feeling any dizziness or other pain?" He wanted to make sure that she was okay and not concussed, but from her hitting her head like she had he expected she would be a bit concussed as she had split the back of her head open. "If you think you can't walk let me know and I will make a shield that will work like a sled and I will pull you long off the ice to safety. Do you have any one that can stay with you over night to watch over you? If now I will volunteer to stay over at where you are staying and watch over you to make sure you are okay."

He had clearly not understood what he was saying could be misunderstood by the poor woman or in some way make her think he is not being like this out of kindness but for other reasons. He looked at the blood on his hand and her glove and he wondered if the place would let them wash the blood off or would have something that they could use to wash the blood off easier as he doubted a place like this wouldn't at least have a way that it could be cleaned up as this was something that could reasonably happen he would think.

WORDS: 580 | TOTAL: 2340| The Real Rawr Redhead


“Guess you finally got to show off those medic skills, hm~?” The redhead only too readily seeming to recall the offer which she had been given by the young man who now attended to her when they had been atop the water, Sam couldn’t help but recall how she had seemed to constantly been tripping over something or herself in some form or fashion on practically every meeting they had, and perhaps was glad for the fact that her bump was in a place which would take the focus away from the rosiness in her cheeks as a result.
“U-Unn… Yeah, that does feel kinda weird…?” Always seeming to try and maintain that sense of toughness about her even in light of so many cute and clumsy moments, this one proved no different as she fought against the urge to wince or groan as ‘nurse’ set to work, and instead passed off any moments of pain which might have registered for her as the girl merely being inexperienced with his rather unusual method of treating her.

“I think I’m alright? Just dazed is all… Yeah! Two fingers~!” All the same feeling more touched than she could really let on that he was being so very attentive to her in this fashion, as he checked her over for signs of further mishap the girl confirmed that she felt fine and if anything had dented her sense of pride worst of all, but to confirm that she hadn’t been knocked too loopy by the crack she had taken to her head held up a couple of digits and confirmed that she wasn’t suffering double vision or anything of the sort.
“I uh, Should be okay? Got a roommate. She’s a bit… Weird, but she’ll probably love the chance to lord it over me like this…?” Quietly relishing the care and attention which he gave to her however and as such almost disappointed to reveal the fact that the reason she was here was on the word and urging of the girl who she lived with, the magenta marvel was almost tempted to suggest he watch over her all the same because she was enjoying their budding bond, but ultimately decided that Nina would complicate things. No doubt she’d be drooling all over a guy like this, right?

“Um… T-Thanks for looking a-after me, Ryuuji? You’re a cool guy.” At least able to move again under her own steam so to speak as a greater sign of her overall wellness and showing that by lifting herself up onto legs which felt a little wobbly and effectively tippy toeing her way off the ice, though it was a bit embarrassing to see people looking to her with a sense of caution and concern the crimson cutie felt a little better for the support he offered, and so as she found her way to a bench to take her skates back off opted to offer up her best attempt at gratitude she could.
“I’m glad we bumped into each other here…” Glowing a bit all the while but deciding that she might never have a better chance to tell him that it had been his company that had made this little trip bearable, she finally found the strength to look into his eye as she admitted her appreciation for the time they had spent together, and with that perhaps a hope that they might run into each other again. Either at the guild, or somewhere else perhaps~?

Ryuuji
Once he heard she was alright and that she didn't seem out of it, he was relieved as he didn't think his big body falling onto her would have left her unharmed but if she said so he was going to believe her. He heard she had a roommate and he smiled as he was glad that she had someone to keep an eye on her. "I am glad to hear you have someone that will be able to watch over and help you." He had followed her off the ice as he as well thinks he was done for the day at trying to skate and he was starting to feel a bit hungry and maybe like he should go and eat before he went back to the place he was staying while he was in the south.

He sat down the bench a bit from her and also started removing his skates when he heard her speak. "You are welcome, it is the least I could do for the trouble I have seemed to cause you the whole time I have bumped into you during these events. I don't know if I would say I am cool, I just know what it is like to be tough and sometimes tough stops people from seeking up or the comfort of others." He was being honest and in a way was admitting that him being tough as well has caused him to turn away aid even if he had really needed it and could have used it himself.

He looked to the woman as she spoke about being glad that they bumped into each other here and he smirked with a small teasing laugh. "I am glad to hear you are still able to make jokes about it. If you want we can get something to eat and I will walk you back to the place you are staying just so I can know you made it back safe." He was happy to hear her speak and be happy but he wanted to also make sure that she made it back to the place she was staying okay, for one reason of making sure if some effect happened to take place on a delay even though he knows she will turn him down he wanted to offer.
