— 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐅𝐄𝐂𝐓 𝐏𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄 ▨

synopsis. budo masuta x art club reader, where budo fell both first and harder!!

notes. guys it finally happened my first yansim req!! i will gladly feed all the budo lovers 🤭

every day, without fail, you're sitting outside the martial arts room and painting something. occasionally, you might draw some of the members of the club, as you have a perfect view from the window.

budo's caught sight of you a few times. sends you a friendly smile and a wave, when he doesn't even know your name. eventually, he gathers up the courage to ask.

he's a little awkward, but it's honestly endearing. he sits next to you one day, asking if he can see your drawing. you smile and show him, leaning the he notices it's sketches of all the martial arts club members, but he's the one on there the most.

a bit of pink dusts his face, looking over himself on paper. you notice a few details now that he's a bit closer, so you change a few things about the drawing, intently looking at him.

aaaand he's caught feelings from that moment. he's spending a lot more time with you now!! he invites you to walk around the school with him both before and after classes.

budo gets your number. his club celebrates the occasion.

it's funny to imagine budo giggling and kicking his feet in his bed at your texts, but that is basically what happens. minus the kicking. he does shuffle a lot, though.

you both meet up outside of school once you give him your number. you've invited him over to your house a few times and showed him your art room. you both began making something random, but it ended with you both smearing paint on each others' faces.

he likes to give you things. whether it's buying you something while you're out shopping together or him finding a stuffed animal that reminds him of you, he doesn't think twice. you will have gained a new item that day.

budo believes in waiting to get to know you before asking you out. it'll be several months before he does so—he just wants to make sure you're comfortable with him by that time.

when he finally does, he confesses in a very romantic way. he'll make sure that it's doing something you like—maybe going to a museum, walking around a lake... or, perhaps—he'll partake in the 'confessing on a friday under the cherry tree' myth.

and he'll look around to make sure no one can hear him ask but you. he'll ask you with a smile on his face, gently holding your hands in his as he looks into your eyes. (you say yes, obviously.)

he wants to kiss you. very badly.

he doesn't know if he should, but you can tell by the look on his face what he's thinking. so, you lean in and do it yourself. it's just a small peck, but he's fallen even further than possible.

if earlier, he had fallen so hard for you he landed on his face, he'd be on his way to the center of the earth by now. he likes you so much that the ground gave in.

he melts when you do almost anything. holding him and lightly dusting your fingers over him, peppering kisses all over his face... he could go on and on about what affections he loves to get from you.

but, he loves to give even more. don't expect to have to do any work when you're in his vicinity. he'll take care of everything you need.

your personalities go together very well. in at least one aspect, you and him are similar, and in at least one, you're different. it's the best mix—and you complement each other perfectly.

notes. guys i have no clue but i've had like no motivation to write for the past week i'm super sorry

__

Budo Masuta is by far one of the most popular students in school. He's powerful, friendly, and has a strong sense of justice. Not only that, but he isn't one to judge others, rather trying his best to solve all problems that come his way, whether it be his own or others'.

This includes Ayano's problems, which comes as a surprise to her due to no one being so determined and willing.

Budo and Sho don't often hang out as friends, it's usually a "master and disciple esc" situation between them. I imagine they don't necessarily dislike each other, it's just that their tastes outside of Martial Arts don't exactly mix well together.

Since Raibaru and Budo spent so much time together last year, everyone's mind obviously went to "they must be dating" or something to the sort, even though they've both already denied this. Sometimes, one of the gyaru's like to poke fun at this old rumour, but it doesn't lead to much since Budo and Raibaru both dislike such gossip.

Shifting the Paradigm: On Tori as the Aggressor in Aikido

The great irony of traditional aikido techniques is that they are fundamentally dependent on tori’s position as the aggressor.

It seems as though uke (the so-called “receiver” of the technique) would be the aggressor as they initiate a hands on encounter, usually exemplified in a wrist grab.

However, the purpose of the wrist grab, historically, is for an unarmed party to attempt to control an armed party who has deployed (and is attempting to make good use of) a sword.

Indeed, most of the root techniques of aikido are sword cuts, deployed after one’s sword wielding wrists have been seized.

In other words, tori is an armed swordsman, and uke is attempting to control their sword with empty hands.

This is why uke traditionally is so eager to seize the wrists, and to hang on to them, even following tori’s leading motions.

Understanding this dynamic fundamentally changes the feeling and energy of the position of both tori and uke. Tori is not merely defending themselves from a disadvantageous position, and uke is not merely aggressing- just the opposite is true in the classical kata.

It doesn’t really matter that uke may have initiated the encounter, and possibly have lost control of their original weapon, resulting in an unarmed continuation. At the point of contact they (uke) are ultimately on the defense.

Defense and offense, attacker and defender, leading and following, are ultimately all one unitary phenomenon.

Tori doesn’t follow, tori leads. They provide and control the opening and closure of the encounter. Tori doesn’t so much blend or harmonize as they create a dynamic that must be harmonized with.

Morihei Ueshiba famously noted that “Aiki is love,” and perhaps it is, but it’s love that bounds from a position of power. While not always expressly verbalized as such, that has always been the case- that I should take care of my “opponent” not only because I have the responsibility to, but because that responsibility is born of a capacity, the advantageous position, to not.
