This trip has been wonderful. Akaya is playing spectacularly. I don't know if it's possible to be more proud of him. He has grown so much as a player. His win yesterday was a bit closer than I would have liked, but he still did very well. I still think he needs a bit more work on his forehand, but I haven't said anything to his coach even though I very much want to.

Besides tennis, I met someone. His name is Adrian and he's at the tournament because he was invited by a friend. He's from southern France. Toulouse, specifically. It's obviously just a short thing due to the tournament being over Sunday, but my gods, he's gorgeous.

Better than imperial march, you think?

Like language practice. Very educational. Classic. You'd think he would have built up some tolerance by now.

[gtl_yukimura]

If you could figure out a way to mash up the two, it would be perfect.

I strive to improve. One would think so, but he still does it with me alone on occasion.

[xyzai]

Have some faith in me.

Ask him for movie recs. He did it to me once at an event and I'm still mad.

[gtl_yukimura]

It was merely a suggestion, not an implication you couldn't do it.

Good idea. Who did he see?

[xyzai]

Good.

Do share. If I knew them, I wouldn't be mad that he left.

[gtl_yukimura]

Of course. We could watch them when I return and judge them harshly. Do you want me to find out?

[xyzai]

Yes. I could probably book a film screening room? It wasn't like that. I just didn't want to be alone with some randoms.

[gtl_yukimura]

Wonderful. That makes sense. He should still make it up to you.

[xyzai]

You bring the snacks. I'm raiding his fridge right now, so I feel like that's fair enough.

[gtl_yukimura]

Anything in particular you'd like? That's a fair trade.

[xyzai]

An anpan.
