Her head quickly snapped back to Teio. Her cheeks were still red, but her ears would wiggle at the same time.
A live demo, hm?
Well then.
She narrowed her eyes, before clutching Teio’s arm and jogging on down a hallway. . .
To where? Only she knew.
She raised an eyebrow at the reaction, it seemed like McQueen had an idea about the actual meaning especially with the blush on her face.
"Mmmmh? It seems McQueen's a bit too embarrassed to say it out loud? It's fine McQueen, any explanation to do! Words or live demo!"
"I am Oguri Cap. I'm going to do my best to make everyone in my hometown happy. Please take care of me."
The Gray Monster, Oguri Cap
Rivals: Fujimasa March, Tamamo Cross
— As such, McQueen would withdraw her arm, and the hidden blush would soon come to the forefront.
“W-well! That’s. . .you know. . . !”
Careful, Teio. McQueen might just show her what she meant. . .
“Hmm?”
It was obvious that McQueen wasn’t paying attention. Having been caught up in the moment herself and admiring Teio being pinned against the wall by her like this, it wasn’t until Teio’s words rang in her head that she lost all pretense of being in control.
—
Teio just looked down in utter defeat, unaware of what was actually going on in McQueen's mind. Just kicking the rock over her loss with McQueen's boldness.
At least until she looked up at McQueen in the eyes.
"... Actually McQueen, what does being a top mean?"
“I’m glad we cleared that up, then.” Her thumb brushed along Teio’s lips, while McQueen smiled a little teasingly.
. . .
What Teio /didn’t/ know, was how McQueen was completely freaking out on the inside. It just so happened that her competitiveness, in this case ‘being a —
"Eeee...!"
Her eyes started darting around the area rather quickly as her flusterness grew, even she was no match for McQueen's boldness what the heck!!
Raising her arms up against the wal as if to concede.
"Y-YOU'RE RIGHT! I'M NOT THE TOP HERE!"
Uwaah... So scary. 💧💧
One of McQueen’s legs would move slightly in between Teio’s, but they would only rub against each other for now. . .
A hand would gently grip the other uma's chin as McQueen tilted Teio’s face up, McQueen’s own eyes lidded.
“. . .Still saying so?~”
"Heh? Of course it's not wrong! After all I'm the one who made a miraculous run and you saw it! So I'm naturally on the- toHpp?!!"
Her rambling was suddenly interrupted by the immediate kabedon, looking at McQueen's arm on the wall and then back at her.
"I- I mean yeah! ──
She barely looks up from the rim of her teacup as she took a sip.
Her eyes closed as she puts the small cup with a sigh.
“It’s very clear that whatever you used is wrong. After all. . .”
McQueen suddenly stood up and. . .kabedons Teio by the wall.
—
— of control.
Thank goodness she didn’t opt for a longer race. She had clearly underestimated a solo run to a mock race itself.
Especially against Teio.
Well, she might as well try and keepher breathing deep and steady from behind Teio.
As the race began, naturally, coming off of a long break, especially because of her degenerative suspensory ligament desmitis, she took it easy. Easier than she normally would, even at this pace.
Though she knew she could run again, her body had tensed itself for that shooting —
Teio eyed as the coin was flipped, flying in the sky momentarily before landing back down onto the ground. Bending forward as her feet were ready to dash off.
Her ears perked up, hearing the faint sound of the coin hitting the turf as she propelled herself forward.
— that the break had gotten her completely rusty. Her pace was much slower than it used to be, and her legs, while still strong, seemed. . .heavier. Her lungs seemed to need more air, and soon, she found herself slipping behind Teio’s slipstream to try and find some semblance —
The corners of her lips twitched in amusement. While it was true that it sounded totally out of left field, although she didn’t particularly think of it this far in advance, it still ended up being completely in her favour! It would unbalance Teio, and, well. . .if she felt the —
"Right right. I get what you're getting at here, you are putting a lot of hard work into getting back into shape and that's great! But you've got a loooong way until you'll be anywhere at my level McQueen!"
Teio got herself into position as well at the starting line —
— same. . .
She’d get a date from Teio!
“Then. . .”
Like their last time, she fished out a silver coin from her pocket, balanced it on her thumb and flicked it into the air, the sunlight glinting off of the coin itself as it flipped, end over end. . .until it bounced off the —
