Tetsuko steps into the dojo with a sparring bag slung over her shoulder. Inside, an assortment of martial arts clubs have designated areas for their respective recruitment booths. The large Doji makes for a beeline for a booth with no words on it. Instead, the booth is adorned with the image of two gloved fists meeting together at the knuckles. She takes her place behind the stall, returning as she was from the year before. Producing from the bag a clipboard with sign-up paperwork on it, an assortment of pens, and liability waivers, the arranges them before her.
Now, she just sits back and awaits the first of this year's club members.

Ichiro sees the two gloves and assumes some type of fighting club is set up in the corner so his makes his way there. He approached bare chested but was putting his shirt on as he walked he finishes as he is standing in front of the booth and freezes partially as he sees the girl manning the booth. His black eye may have faded but the image of the beautiful, and terrifying girl that gave it to him was fresh in his mind. "Um....h-hi."

The Doji grins to the Akodo as he approaches.
"Hey Akodo-san. Looking to join the Boxing Club?" she asks with a toothy smile. After a pause, she motions to his fading black eye. "Ano... sorry about leaving that mark the other night. You don't have to worry about getting a matching one, in the club we use knuckle protection which should help to minimize the bruising."

Ichiro feels a wave of relief wash over him she seems to have met the whole incident wash over. He bows to Tetsuko "no it is I who should be apologizing i am lucky I only walked away with that, or that I walked away at all...." His sentence dangles as he remembers the small angry sensei that had murder in her eyes. Well, eye.
"Sure I'd love to sign up for this club and don't worry you won't be landing another shot like that on me "he says with a cocky smile as he signs the sheet.

Tetsuko offers a laugh.
"Yeah? You're on, then." she says mischievously. She eyes him up and down. "Though, I don't doubt you can carry your weight. That confidence gonna keep up when we start competing? No way am I letting this school not take home the championship title."

Ichiro throws a laugh back at her
"Don't worry I'm definitely good with my hands. I won't say the best, at least not yet, but I know what I'm doing, everyone in my school was drilled extensively in hand to hand combat I assume boxing won't be vastly different from other martial arts." He lives for the competition Tetsuko gets the feeling that Ichiro has a deep competition.

"Well, good!" Tetsuko says. "We'll need that kind of drive and skill if we are to win. Last year, the Hida War Academy very nearly stole our title out from under us, and we can't have that, now, can we?"

"That pack of brutes! No way will we lose to them this year." Ichiro looks the Doji up and down for a bit assessing her "You seem like you're quite the competent fighter yourself. I already know you're strong but there is more to this thing than strength."

Kogeki takes some time from his duty at the cooking booth to come over to the club, wearing his cooking whites and chef hat the large thug with the nose piercing walks towards the booth. "Uh...boxing club right?" he says looking between the two of them.

Tetsuko nods to Ichiro.
"Hai. Strength is good and all, but it's the quicker fist and the sharper mind that wins the day."
She makes to elaborate on the statement, but then the Spider shows up. She quickly searches his clothing for a mon before addressing him.
"Ah, yes.... Gyushi-san. You are in the right place! Looking to get some strikes in between souffles? Fights between fryings?" She pauses. "There's also a punch pun in there somewhere, but I'm not going to look for it." She chuckles, clearly thinking her bad jokes as funny.
