After A Loss....(Open Thread)

[valen311]

Marisa Evans came into the gym, dressed in a pink sports bra and matching spandex shorts. She had come to work out, and try to take her mind off the loss Belinda handed her a few days ago in their erotic climax-pinfall match for the AFW Hentai title. She had just finished watched the footage, seeing once again how she had Belinda in major trouble throughout the last half of the match, forcing the French woman into a massive climax with her hentai finisher. However the American had taken too long to start a pin attempt, and Bel managed to kick out, and few short moments later apply her own hentai finisher to Marisa, forcing her to endure multiple orgasms before pinning her. (Pretty accurate summary, but if you want to see the whole last part yourself its on the Google Groups board)
Marisa tried the weights and punching bag half heartedly, then after giving up on them, spread a yoga mat down in an empty corner, doing various yoga forms to help with her flexibility and help clear her head.

Yoshiko Oyama opened slowly the door that led to the gym, wearing a loose white t-shirt and a pair of blue shorts. It was her first day at that place, and she intended to do her daily training there. She found out that someone was already at the gym, though. It was also the first person she saw at this new place, and preferred to watch her at a distance.

It was a woman. Yoshiko took a couple steps forward. The woman, though a bit shorter than herself, seemed more mature. The woman started practising yoga, and Yoshiko came closer again. She looked at the woman's perfectly sized bust under the pink bra, and, blushing a little, she looked at her own, which seemed small in comparison. Gulping down the jealousy, she approached the woman and bowed. "Yoshiko Oyama. I'm glad to meet you."

"Hi. I'm Marisa." the platinum haired American stood from the position she was in. "Marisa Evans. I haven't seen you around, are you new?"
She offered a friendly smile as she looked Yoshiko over.
*She's young, maybe even fresh out of high school. I was probably still modeling at her age.* she thought to herself.

Marisa's smile served to make Yoshiko feel less awkward. The girl didn't expect to meet someone friendly so soon. "Yes, Evans-san. It's my first day here." She made a pause, then continued. "Perhaps you're one of the veteran competitors?"

[valen311]

"Please, Marisa will do." the American replied to Yoshiko's formal address. "As for a veteran, well yes, I've been around the AFW for awhile now. I mainly compete in the erotic grappling matches here. Welcome aboard, by the way. Yoshiko, that's a lovely name. Let's have a seat, hmm?"
She motioned to a large gym mat that was near where she was practicing yoga.
"So, are you familiar with the types of matches that go on here at the AFW?" she asked as she tried to gauge Yoshiko's reaction to her area of expertise. "I don't mean anything by this, but you look fairly young...."

[Thecoward]

Yoshiko blushed lightly at the mentioning of the word "erotic", but continued the conversation quickly. "Ev... Marisa, please don't look down at me. Even though I am only 18, I have been extensively trained in the ways of jujitsu since my early childhood. I dare to consider myself flexible enough to endure any kind of match", she finally finished. She didn't want to be considered a total rookie by a friendly senior.

Marisa smiled.
"Look down on you? Of course not." she said. "It's just, you seemed a little uneasy when I said 'erotic grappling'. I certainly hope in your mind you're not comparing me to a porn actress who rolls around on a mat with another woman before her sex scene." she said, still smiling but also looking at Yoshiko with a firm gaze.

[Thecoward]

It was true. She did feel uneasy with the idea of making another girl submit from humiliation... or being humiliated herself.

"I would never think that of you", she said, even though she actually considered the possibility. "It's just that I don't have much experience in ero...", she faltered, "hum, this kind of match."

[valen311]

Marisa nodded.
"Well, everyone here eventually has to compete in a hentai match, but there are a few of us who actually decide to specialize in it." she said.
She paused, remembering the advice she was given long ago.
"The problem most of the ladies here run into is, they equate an erotic match with ordinary sex. It's not. It's a fight, just of a different sort." the American went on. "You said you've trained to master a martial art, yes? Women like myself, Belinda, Tana, and a few others have also put in long hours to master an art. For example, even though I don't look it, I've trained in aikido and the grappling forms of pro and Roman-Grecco wrestling. Then I spent lots of hours finding out ways to sexually attack someone from within the holds I've learned."
She looked up at Yoshiko.
"Those were fun hours, and there were many surprised sparring partners." she recalled. "Of course there was the also time spent studying sexual anatomy, psychology....the list goes on and I think you get the point. I fight....just on a different battlefield and using a different technique."

[Thecoward]

"I see...", she muttered. The whole philosophy of hers was fairly logic, and Yoshiko could understand it looking back at her own life, the efforts, the training. She felt that Marisa and her had the same wavelengh after hearing those words.

Yet, it was strange to her that someone talked so freely of something that seemed so awkward to her, stand alone specializing in a style based on it. She had to do some research. Yoshiko bowed again. "Marisa-san, I'd be honoured if you accepted to share your experience with me", she said, not looking directly at Marisa and unintentionally adding the honorific to her name again.
