#tadot2

Teshima can't see her at first. But then Aoyagi shakily raises a hand from where she's lying under her Corratec, her cleats poking out from underneath the wheel. Teshima jogs over and kneels next to her, hissing as the scrapes on his knees suddenly make themselves known. Together, they detangle Aoyagi's limbs from the bike frame.

Teshima's laugh is light, derisive and self-depreciating.

"Sorry, Aoyagi. I messed up."

His ready smile belies how frustrated he is with himself. He knows how seamlessly they're capable of working together, he can see it, but they're still so far away from that goal. And it's not his strategy or Aoyagi's skills that are lacking, which only leads him to conclude that it's his own cycling that is, as usual, the weak link, the snag that's making them fail.

A hand lands on Teshima's shoulder. Aoyagi has such a good read on him at this point that she can see right through Teshima's fronts. She's almost better at it than Teshima is at gauging the difference in the quality of her silences.

"It was my fault, too, Junta."

While Aoyagi's tone is apologetic, the single eye that's visible from under her bangs takes on a determined glint.

"We do need to practice more to perfect the technique. You're right, Aoyagi." Teshima pushes back his sweaty bangs and stands up, offering Aoyagi a hand. She takes it, but when she rests his weight on his right foot she winces in pain. Teshima's stomach sinks.

"Crap, are you hurt?"

A nod.

"Is it a sprain? Can you walk?"

An uncertain shake of the head, and then another nod.

Teshima offers her his shoulder for support.

"If it is sprained you'll have to stay off it for a few weeks," he says, mostly for the sake of something to say.

He really hopes it isn't sprained.

Aoyagi slings an arm over Teshima's shoulders, quiet in an acknowledging sort of way. Teshima frowns at their bikes on the ground.

"Come on. I'll fetch these later." At least it's late, and this path isn't really frequented by anyone who isn't a cycling club member at any point of the day anyway. No reason to come out here aside from training.

In the club room there's a first aid kit, and supplies, and their phones. It isn't far, but the walk is long enough that Teshima's nervous at the idea of Aoyagi limping delicately along beside him as the evening dimness swiftly darkens to black.

Neither of them are expecting the low, thundering rumble of bike wheels turning fast along the road, distant but rapidly getting closer. They've been the only club members here this late every day for the past week.

As usual, the first thing Teshima notices about Tadokoro riding his bike is the sheer, breathtaking size of him, the breadth of his shoulders appearing even wider over the frame of his bike, his hands enveloping the handlebars.

"Ha, it looks like you took a bad spill. Need some help?"

"The fall wasn't that bad," Teshima comments pleasantly, even though it was, even though Aoyagi's clinging to his shoulder. Tadokoro sounds almost proud of them, somehow, which confuses Teshima, but he doesn't bring it up.

Tadokoro's laugh chases away Teshima's defensiveness like a sunbeam piercing through stormclouds. "It's fine! Falling helps build your strength, after all."

"Tadokoro-san," says Aoyagi, her voice tinged with admiration the way it always is when she's talking to or about the sprinter. It makes Teshima smile.

"Aoyagi. I'll carry you back," announces Tadokoro, and Aoyagi barely has time to nod in agreement before he picks her up and puts her over one shoulder like she weighs absolutely nothing.

Aoyagi's eyes widen comically as her feet leave the ground. Teshima imagines he's probably wearing a similar expression.

"You're lucky I decided to stay and do a few more laps!"

Teshima chooses to push his Colnago to the side of the road for now. He stands Aoyagi's Corratec upright and wheels it along behind Tadokoro, who's keeping Aoyagi in place with one large hand and wheeling his Specialized along beside him with the other. Teshima is mildly surprised to find that he's actually jealous of Aoyagi for being carried. It's a ridiculous thought, so he ignores it. No matter how solid Tadokoro's back looks and how safe it must be in his grip, being dumped over his shoulder with all the blood rushing to your head can't be comfortable.

"You two have been working hard," Tadokoro continues as he strides along, Aoyagi's hands moving against his back as she scrabbles for purchase. "If you want any advice, ask me. I can tell you everything you need to know about taking the goal."

Aoyagi perks up, glancing at Teshima as Tadokoro looks over his shoulder to shoot Teshima a wide, sharp-toothed grin.

Teshima smiles back in a manner that's more measured, but no less sincere.

"Maybe we'll take you up on that. Thank you for offering."

Tadokoro laughs again, loudly. He seems to do everything loudly. It's kind of charming.

"You should! It's a special offer. I think you two have what it takes to win if you work at it."

"You do?" In spite of himself, Teshima's chest swells with pride. Aoyagi fidgets a little on Tadokoro's shoulder and looks at Teshima again, practically beaming.

and theyre not ~in a relationship~, maki's aro and onoda's v v poly, but they hold hands and kiss and stuff

and i think onoda is def more forward than maki, sexwise, though makis probs more experienced. they share a bed fairly often cause its a pain to roll out the futon and onodas small so he fits easily.

so at first maki thinks onoda's just impaired by sleepiness and doesnt realise hes touching maki's hip, or maki's chest, or both, but then he's kissing up his jaw and catching teeth on his earlobe and suddenly maki realises that onoda knows exactly what hes doing and is just giving maki the chance to throw him off

and maki considers it, cause he might feel guilty about this, but onoda says 'yuu-chan' and damn, ok

idk if they do much penetrative stuff tbh, mostly frottage and whatnot, but tbh i think onoda tops more than maki? theyre both switches SHRUGS i need to talk about the other ships u asked for gomen anon

ok so uhhh manatou? 

i have less to say about this thank heck uh

i dont have nearly as many Important feelings about this mostly because manami is pretty incomprehensible to me - by which i mean i feel like comprehending him might be a lil dangerous for me hahaha

but i really like this as a ship because of toudous... miscomprehension of the dynamic they have

he thinks its a kouhai admiring his senpai, he thinks manami looks up to him. but mostly its just manami wanting physical stimulation tbh

he throws himself at people casually and seemingly at random, and he tells people he loves them all the time

this is supposed to be specifically about this one ship shit uhhh

i think toudou kinda tries to resist him, tries to keep his kouhai 'pure', though hes anything but. keeps his pants on most of the time, but manami weasels his hand in there more often than you'd think. (though imo toudou keeps his pants on during sex a lot, but thats probs cause i headcanon him as a trans guy??)

which usually gets him slapped, but hey, hes into it. once toudou gets that manami's into pain he gets pretty involved with that, its a way of getting manami to calm down a little without involving himself too much cause he definitely feels guilty about getting involved with his kouhai in a way that makishima never really has to. toudou likes stepping on people and feeling superior to them i think? yeah. he steps on manami in bike cleats when hes late sometimes i think

fukukin is probs the most romantic thing i ship within yowapeda?? they arent Dating - they both have too much responsibility and too many other people to kiss, plus the long-distance makes it p difficult - but they go on dates whenever they happen to be close enough, and sometimes one of them will travel just to see the other

fuku had the biggest crush on kinjou from v early on, it took him a while to reconcile that within himself i think, a fair bit of sitting and talking at shinkai till he was ok with admitting that he wants to kiss the boy, and even longer till he was able to ask kinjou if maybe he wanted to spend some time alone together sometime, maybe get a coffee if kinjou drinks coffee

its the stammeriest kinjous seen him (by which i mean, he stumbles over like, one word), and its charming

hes been into fukutomi for ages but figured he was straight, so hes p glad to see thats not the case.

i usually dont have many thoughts about virginities and whatnots, but im p sure fuku saves himself for kinjou. kinjou usually tops, because fuku is the strongest at takin dick, but they def switch it up a lot.

(also theyre both trans idc what you say)

ok im almost through!! im doin it!

tadot2 is sooo good augh

hes their senpai in everything??? cycling and also hes their 'ideal man' kinda thing, theyre all trans and tadokoros really helping t2 with their transitions (hes a lot further along than them, hes already had top surgery) and hes such a supportive guy, he loves them a lot

he knew they were dating even before they were dating, but he never assumed theyd also be interested in him

but theyve discussed it so many times, theyve both wanted to bang him since day one, and theyve talked about the threesome a lot - especially in the middle of things, yknow

and they all have movie nights together p often, so they have opportunity

they climb nice and slowly into his lap - they sit on him p often so its no big deal, but then they just. start making out on top of him. and i mean, he cant help but be into that, come on. so hes bright red and shifting uncomfortably and they both look up at him with these big grins (aoyagi is smiling shyly but its a grin in his heart) and both kiss him on the cheek

and then he gets it.
