Ride 740: Sugimoto driven in a corner
Pag 1
3: Pinch and crush him, Danchiku!! Crush Sugimoto-san!!
Pag 2
1: As easy as crushing dry leaves!!
Yeah, Issaa!!
Pag 4
3: You're slow
Pag 5
1: You're slow, Sugimoto-san – Bamboo Hop Shot!!
2: He's fast!!
4: He got even faster.... than the second day...
But
5: But!!
Pag 6
1: It's not so easy to crush my heart, Danchiku!!
Kuaaaaagh
Pag 7
2: The battle between those two has started!!
3: The last battle of the training camp's fourth day!! The rule is simple, whoever crosses the sensor line first wins!!
4: The serious battle between Danchiku and Sugimoto, betting the spot in the Inter High!!
5: Sugimoto....!!
6: Danchiku!!
7: But.... this battle....
Pag 8
1: That's right, Onoda
4: He.... Sugimoto understands everything
And he's fighting upon understanding that
6: He's running with that resolution
And he has no intention whatsoever of stepping aside!!
Pag 9
2: What....
I really settled this with one attack
3: It was easy
5: Kuaaagh
8: Kuaaaagh
9: …. no
Pag 10
1: Kuaaaaagh
He's still chasing after me!!
Pag 11
1: Sugimoto-san
2: Dan.... chikuu!!
3: I wonder what's this feeling
I was thinking I could win against you, and it's true that I said I could defeat you with one attack
4: But, I don't know why, but my heart is beating fast
And for some reason the corners of my mouth are pulling up
5: Maybe it's because I know we've practiced and desperately ran together until now, but when earlier I turned back and I didn't see you, I though “ah of course”, but there was also another feeling....
Pag 12
1: I thought- there's no way that that Sugimoto-san was beaten by just one attack!!
Pag 13
1: Ha
2: Kuaaagh
3: He chased me and kept going until he passed me!!
5: Dammit, even though I couldn't defeat him in one blow, right now I feel so good!!
6: I'm thinking that this is the spirit!!
Pag 14
1: Sugimoto-san!!
2: It's so hard....!!
Danchiku really got stronger than on the second day
3: But this is the basis of road racing: don't let your opponent understand how it is for you!!
4: Looks like you're having a hard time, Sugimoto-san
Pag 15
1: He noticed!!
2: But there's no way I'm giving up the lead position
Until my breath calms down, I'll keep just the right pace....
3: He jumped ahead!!
4: Can you follow!?
6: Mh
7: Easily!!
Pag 16
2: Well you're so reliable!!
Danchiku used his “Hop Shot” again
Pag 17
1: Garuaah!!
2: He left me behind!!
3: Kuaaaaagh
Keep up, Sugimoto Terufumi!!
4: Sugimoto-san, you followed!! I'm happy that we're clashing seriously now
5: Issa told me not to tell you
But I'll tell you, Sugimoto-san
6: There's another secret to my special technique “Panda Shout”
Panda Shout is....
Pag 18
1: A breathing technique
2: When humans breathe, oxygen weaves into their lungs
3: And when they work out, they need a lot of fresh oxygen
And they become conscious of their “inhaling”
4: But if they do it too much, their breathing becomes uneven and shallow, and they inhale the oxygen around their mouth that it's not “fresh air”
5: Exhaling is more important than inhaling!!
“Actively pushing out the air in your lungs”!!
6: That way, you can naturally take in a lot of “fresh air”!!
Panda Shout uses the abdominal pressure to squeeze out all the air from my lungs
Pag 19
1: It's the ultimate technique to intake oxygen!!
3: Technique to intake....!!
4: If he can accelerate even more....!!
5: I'll use it right away
Ah, and there's one more thing
Huh
6: When I use this
Pag 20
1: My acceleration with Hop Shot becomes twice as fast!!
2: Two.... ice
Please hold on tight and follow me, Sugimoto-san!!

PLEASE INFODUMP AS MUCH AS YOU WANT I AM SO IMMEDIATELY INTERESTED
i can be more specific if you want/need but like, throw wide the gates!!!!!! TELL ME WHATEVER YOU WANT
my friend Ban (feniksido on here) has an incredibly intricate project he's been working on for ages and ages (if you ever see me reblog the same image sets a bunch from him it's because it's like my dominant special interest and if i don't look at kharian and enzo regularly i'll wither inside) and i love it with all my heart!!!
i love learning about worldbuilding projects and oc's so much im so excited you want to talk about yours PLEASE!!! vibrates in place i am excited to learn
HEEHEE OKOK UMMMM
ok well . BASICALLY it started as a vague "dnd-type setting" and sort of spiraled from there
so there are three kingdoms [Troceia, Alistair, and Amaryllis] on the larger continent and a commonwealth [Nesprit] on the second one :] here let me get my trusty map
now keep in mind i know very little abt geography so this is mostly abt continent shapes + kingdom/capital placements
hmm lets see.. the first character to be created was mordred elderhardt, a runaway prince of Trociea who ended up escaping and finding their way to the honeystone, which is an inn in the mid-sized trading town of wellspring! since that was the first town to be invented it became the shorthand name for the universe as a whole
the "#mordred" and "#troceia" tags have posts that remind me of them, their kingdom, + their family [which. has character lore up to three generations back] and the "#honeystone" tag has posts abt the inn + the family that owns it !
perhaps one of the most active character tags i have is "#quigley" who . has nothing to do with any of that HSGDHG he started as my dnd character and then i got so attached i airdropped him into wellspring . though i dont use the wellspring tags for his posts bc he would clog them <33 he is my favorite oc though
thats the most basic starting point for the Lore ,, i also have some more general info like regional folklore, religion, creatures [which you found some of by yourself :33], international relations, cultures, etc etc etc !!! not to mention the rest of the characters ,, if you have any specific questions/topics of interest i can elaborate on them :DD we can also dm if you want/are comfortable :3

❝ It began as all things did: a girl on the shore, terrified and desirous. ❞ for nirmala!
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ— A STUDY IN DROWNING ( accepting! )
It’s too cold to linger too long outside today. There is a southern wind which kicks up off the coast and brings with it a chill that seeps into the bones. It’s a bad day for Baba, who keeps to the first floor of the house after he has trekked awkwardly through the fields and orchard despite the frost - blanketed ground. Nirmala can hear the long drag of his gait and the uneven thump of his cane even from upstairs; it’s slower than it usually is and that means, @taitropa says, that she mustn’t pester him too much.
This is a horrible thing to Nirmala, who prefers Baba’s stories over anything else. Mama tells stories just fine; she tells stories about ships and saints and sometimes she tells them in song, and Nirmala loves Mama’s voice. But it’s Baba who tells stories about girls with knives and boys with guns and the danger of city streets rife with mischief, which are, of course, far more exciting tales. Especially because Mama hates that he tells them to Nirmala.
❝ Mama, ❞ interjects Nirmala, who sits on the cold wooden floor with her legs crossed beneath her. Mama sits behind her and rubs oil into her scalp with calloused fingers made rough from saltwater. They are still gentle; if Nirmala closes her eyes, she might fall asleep and she still has bribing to do today. Downstairs, Baba scolds the dog for getting underfoot, the sanded down quality of his voice muffled by the yowling wind outside. Nirmala tilts her head back until her neck hurts and Mama’s warm eyes come into view. ❝ What’s desirous? ❞
