Ichiro had his bento under one arm as he walked to the spot he texted Yasuki Tsubasa about earlier. He was still in his gym shorts and tight black shirt seeing as he has just been working out since their stretching session this morning. He set up on one of the tables in a grass area near a fountain in the courtyard and figured he'd simply wait for Tsubasa before he started eating. He had brought along his music player and was winding down with some Jazz music, he loved the pacing of it and how the sounds felt. He closed his eyes and just listened tapping his foot to the beat as he waited.

Tsubasa eventually showed up carrying a small bag from the local convenience store, filled with pre-made food for her own lunch. She checked her phone once more to make sure of the location before looking up to find Ichiro already sitting and listening to music.
She takes a seat next to him on the bench, stretching out as she placed her food on the bench and waited for him to finish listening to his song.

Ichiro felt the presence of someone there and looked over to see Tsubasa sitting there he pulled an ear bud out and smiled widely.
"Hey there Tsubasa-san! glad you decided to meet. How has the rest of your day been?"

"Pretty good so far~ we decided what we're going to do in performing arts and stuff and now I'm eating food with a guy who appreciates all my good qualities~ so it's a good day."
She pulls out a convenience store onigiri from her bag, pulling off the wrapper before fixing the seaweed to it.

Ichiro chuckled "there is no way I can appreciate your best qualities, I've barely gotten to know you yet." He said with a charming smile.
"Ugh my arms are so sore, going from Iai class to defense class after working out this morning definitely gonna need to get my shoulders and arms looked at." He said as he opened his bento to reveal the sushi meal.

"Well Ichiro-san. Every journey begins with a single step. You just need to spend more time exercising and stretching your important muscles and as time goes on they'll be less and less sore and you'll be able to go for longer and longer." She took a bite of her food then, mostly unawares of how her words could be interpreted.

Ichiro let's out a small laugh "Oh trust me Tsubasa-san I am no stranger to hard work I just did some stuff I'm not used to as much and I haven't taken a break all day. I can go for awhile." He says innocently enough.
"So how do you know so much about exercising and stretching and such? Seems like odd knowledge for a performing." He asked as he popped a piece of sushi into his mouth.

"Performing is just as strenuous as a fight. Even more so actually. While a duel may only last a few minutes my concerts can last for a few hours. I'll be dancing and singing the whole time. Plus I have to spend several hours a day practicing routines, doing press events, and making sure everything is perfect for my fans."
She paused to take a bite of rice ball, chomping down half in one bite.
"Every day we woke up at 5am to start working out, to exercise and stretch. Long long days and I am glad they are over for now but old habits die hard."

"Fair, dance is quite exhausting, I did it a bit during my training at my old school. My sensei said it improved muscle endurance and flexibility. Though I'd take a day full of dancing over getting hit by a bokken all day." He says smiling as he pops a sushi into his mouth.
Ichiro swallowed "so why come to RHS? Seems like you already had a pretty successful career as a singer."

"Things were okay but... I wanted a different experience. I wanted to make friends, I wanted to make my own schedule. I wanted to do something other than spend my whole life on the road doing nothing but work. So our group broke up and I came back home and now I'm here."
Tsubasa nibbled her food again. "I don't know by the way, if you wear a nice helmet you can get whacked on the head all the time and not feel it."
