Hello, Prince of Tennis Captain

This story starts very slowly, so please bear with me. This is my first attempt at this style... Send me all your opinions and brickbats! [Flips table] After agonizing over it all night, I finally decided... This story won't be long. Since it has a farming-story vibe, I might as well keep things low-key throughout. =-= It starts very slowly. Sorry if you have little patience and prefer dramatic, high-stakes stories (I actually like those too [twists around]). =-= I expect to finish this novella in under 100,000 words. =-= But even 100,000 words seems like a huge undertaking for me... ( ... ) No scheming, no wealthy-family feuds. They're just a bunch of boys who love tennis. =-= I've always wondered how Prince of Tennis could be turned into a dark supernatural story. It's so strange... I'm not writing this for VIP status or a spot on the rankings. Finding it is all down to fate, so please stop lurking without a word... I'm not after anything. I just like reading your opinions. Could you really not spare half a minute to type a few words? I welcome suggestions and even negative ratings. I'm not asking for anything, so would it really kill you to pop in and say something? I'll repeat the Heart Sutra ten times. I need to keep my cool. = =+ If you think my setting and story are to your taste, then go ahead and click in without hesitation. The entire story is here. =-= If I post any announcements or whatever, I'll put them here too. I'm obsessed with Ryoga, and whenever I write Prince of Tennis, I love pairing him up with someone ( ... ). If, like me, your tastes are pretty different from the mainstream and you've fallen for this supporting character who only appeared in the movie, click in. =-= The pairing for this story is clearly stated in the search bar and the blurb, so I won't repeat it here. =-=
