[OPEN] Stress Relief

Jun had been jogging for an hour and a half, all the while watching another blond pound into a punching bag. Rapidly. He recognized the guy somewhat...Hyousuke Suzuki. No relation to their resident house cat. They say the guy used to run with a group of wannabe delinquents, and he did fit the bill. The five foot five blond didn't like just punching a dummy...it didn't do him any good. No practice of actual skills. Just too mindless for his liking. Both Jun and his twin brother always practiced their new techniques on each other, learned from their father. Despite his forced break from hand to hand combat techniques, he had bounced back pretty well, his father complimenting him about it.

This guy didn't show any real skill...so you couldn't really judge based on what the guy was doing. Hyousuke was taller than Jun, and much more well muscled, where Jun was much more average looking...some would even say slim and innocent looking. He did admire the taller boy's focus...if the green eyed teenager didn't have headphones on, he would have snapped at everyone for being so loud. Still, he was done and was resting first. He hadn't practiced his hand to hand much...maybe this guy could help? Besides, maybe he'd gain a new friend, or at least a regular sparring partner.

After another half hour of resting and drinking water, the boy walked up with an extra, unopened water bottle. "Quirk or not, you should probably take a small break. Here. I'm Jun, by the way..." He held out a water bottle to the guy. Jun was clad in a green T-shirt and black shorts.

"Even so, push yourself too hard too fast and you'll end up doing more harm than good. By the way, I got that from the vending machine..." He pointed at the vending machine for water and handed the used bottle back to Hyousuke. Then the guy asked what he was doing here. "I was on the treadmill for a while. Plus kind of scoping out if there was anyone vaguely familiar or I've heard somewhat about around to see if they're okay with a little hand to hand training...my dad would freak if he found out how much I've been slacking on that..." Jun rubbed the back of his neck and giggled nervously. "Even so, you're the only one I've at least heard of, and I thought you were in the same class as me? Class 1-A? There's a lot of blondes in class..." While he was generally okay at connecting faces with names, Hyousuke apparently didn't stand out that much. And with how unsociable, but approachable, Jun was, he doubted the guy recognized him either. Even if Jun was a bit on the cute side.

"Punching a sandbag is good and all, but if you want to get better at close range combat, what's better than a live opponent?" Jun was very...average, even a bit on the slim side, though he naturally fast and had good reflexes, he was pretty fragile. What he also had was training from a former JSDF and police officer. So there was that to take into account. Still, it should be fun to throw around another student for a little bit...or even be thrown around himself. Jun and his twin brother used to do that all the time.

Hyousuke was open to the idea. Jun put both water bottles down. "Preferably no quirks...my own is primarily ranged based anyways, so kind of counter to what I want to work on." He got some basic safety pads for the two of them. After putting on his set, Jun walked into the ring. He could already hear murmurs. People betting on which one will win. Many of them seemed to be betting against the smaller boy. But it was whatever. "How do want to do this? Knockdowns, submissions, etc.? First to three points wins? Want any rewards involved or just bragging rights?" It didn't matter much to him. He could handle any prize that the guy was likely to think up. So long as it didn't involve anything lewd or disgusting. He doubted he would...Hyousuke didn't seem like that kind of person.

Relaxed, Jun waited in the guy's answer. And then would wait on him to make the first move. Jun's style in close quarters was more reactionary than proactive. Hyousuke seemed to be the type to stay on the offensive. But this was all just guesses at this point.

Jun shrugged. "I'm fine with that." Hyousuke gave Jun a few moments to prepare, and the smaller blond was ready whenever Hyousuke was. The taller blond went into a kickboxing stance. So the guy had some training. But how practical was it? The wall of muscle rushed forward, starting with a left handed jab. A test. Jun dodged to the left, grabbing Hyousuke's left elbow. With his other hand, Jun grabbed the shirt at the guy's sternum and used his own momentum to flip the guy over his shoulder. Jun doubted the taller boy would be able to land on his feet or anything of the like. If he didn't, and landed on his back, Jun would drive a fist downward towards the guy's face, only to stop just before contact, and promptly back off.

If Hyousuke got into a sitting position immediately, Jun would do an open palmed strike at the right side of Hyousuke's head to stun him. Then go into a roundhouse kick to the left side of the head before backing off.

Either way, the murmurs would circulate at how the smaller, unassuming, if cute, boy was able to flip a much larger guy over himself and onto the mat. Never underestimate this chibi blonde boi! Though something nagged at the back of his mind that this sure as hell wasn't all Hyousuke had...that wild look...he definitely thrived in a fight. Hopefully, Hyousuke will give him everything he had, or this was going to be a very disappointing fight.

The taller blond responded quickly, putting up his arms in defense, fast enough where even if Jun hadn't stopped, he would have blocked it. And had some words to say.

"If you say so..." Which he probably could...Jun was pretty average in strength for a guy his size, he wondered if the guy remembered that it was just a sparring match. Though Jun had to react immediately, deflecting the first jab, and had to take a step back and duck to narrowly avoid the second punch, though it probably brushed through hair. With his right arm, Jun aimed a punch to the gut.Then aimed another punch to the lower ribs before backing off. If Hyousuke came at him again, Jun would aim a kick to the shin to interrupt any kind of counter attack and put him hopefully on a knee. A quick hop and dart around, Jun then aimed a chop to the back of the neck.

Jun seemed calm and cool, very unlike his wild and almost animistic opponent. The guy seemed like a former delinquent to him. Well, at least he'll make Jun earn his victory...assuming it will be a victory, it certainly seemed like he won't make it easy.

Both strikes found their mark, but it wasn't enough to take him down. Hyousuke demonstrated a good deal of balance in lifting his leg so that his kick would instead hit the man's ankle slide away. It was a neat trick he didn't know about. The other boy reacted well, moving his body to attack, instead of defending against his chop. Considering how fragile Jun was, it was actually probably the best move he could have made. While chop did hit the man's face, it did force Jun to do a hope and spin away from the incoming punch. It did manage to graze his left side, making the smaller boy wince. He could already feel the bruise forming there. It was clear to Jun that Hyousuke was willing to take damage in order to dish some out.

And that put Jun on edge. He wasn't sure he could out damage the larger boy. Even more so since he could likely four to five shot him if those were good, solid hits and not grazes like before.

Taking a few steps back, Jun watched Hyousuke for a minute. Maybe the best offense was a good defense in this particular case. So he'd wait and see what the other guy would do next. Though he was already being predictable.

If Hyousuke charged him again with a punch, he'd dodge to the outside, grabbing wrist, then grabbed the back of the boy's head, and use his weight to force the guy down. And do the apprehending technique his dad showed him. And what's commonly seen on cop shows everywhere.

It seemed Jun's choice was the right one. As predicted, Hyousuke charged. But the larger boy wasn't going to go down alone. A more skin tight attire might have saved the smaller blond. But the guy got lucky, and grabbed the sleeve of Jun's T-shirt on his left arm. And promptly slammed him on the ground next to the larger boy. Despite the pain, Jun tried to latch onto the arm, and attempted to tangle his legs to put a strangle hold on Hyousuke, hoping to cut off his oxygen supply enough for him tap out. Though he kind of doubted it...Hyousuke seemed more than a little bull headed. Almost a typical all brawn and no brain type of guy. Effective, but not always ideal. And without quirks, Jun couldn't capitalize on this as much as he normally would. His lightning half would have a field day in this type of close quarters brawl.

Due to the awkwardness of the strangle hold, and his own relatively average strength, Jun could be peeled off. And his own light weight, probably even lifted while still attached. It wouldn't be easy, but could be achieved. It was all dependent on how Hyousuke's brain thought. As fun as this was, it was also a bit worrisome. Jun never had to get that rough with Riku, and vice versa, so this was more than a little new.
