Fujji was small, too small, really. The meaner part of him wanted to pick on her, give her a real hard time as bigger brothers tended to do. But she was family and thus was-mostly- safe from his meaner streak. A part of him that had ripened with age, shoved his childlike innocence and softness off a cliff. Nothing bad had happened, he wasn't jaded or traumatised, he just was. And it suited him just fine, if it wasn't broke why fix it? Once again he made his way to the square training court, all neat and tidy, with the mats rolled perfectly flat against the floor. Everyone knew Hattori would throw a fit-or rather squint everyone into oblivion- if they didn't tidy up after themselves when they were done here. And thus it was always tidy. Water buckets filled with fresh rain water, training dummies stacked neatly to the side made of bamboo of course.

Moving to the centre, he tipped his head back and called for his little sister. There was a pointed edge to his call, demeaning and somehow smarmy all at once. Or maybe his voice was just like that, puberty, am I right?

Fuji's muzzle crinkled at the tone her brother called her with but she put away the poultice she had been working on and made her way to the training grounds none the less. She had an antiseptic scent that clung to her fur these days, all pine and eucalypt, sharp on the nose, and she knew Tachi would smell her before he saw her, so there was little point wasting time on pleasantries. There was only one reason to call her to this place.

Rather than give the dojo the respect it deserved, she set her shoulders and lowered her horned head. She was always down for blowing off steam and saving the smart talk for afterwards. She barrelled into the arena, knowing the final turn would lose her some momentum. She hoped she could catch her larger brother by surprise and ram him right in the butt, but a rib or a shoulder would do just as well.

Tachi hadn't expected any less from his rotund little sister. He hadn't seen her at first, aside from a flash of pink from between the bamboo shafts, but then she barrelled around the corner. Head lowered, curled horns at the ready to slam into his shins, or something just as close to the floor. For a while Tachi and his siblings had wondered if she'd ever grow and apparently the answer to that is no, like she was determined to be the smallest wolf possible. A pink stain on the world.

Light and dainty on his feet-apparently all of his bulk had been handed off to his other siblings- Tachi swung out of the way, but even then it wasn't enough to entirely dodge her attack. He winced a little as she swiped the hock of his back right leg, causing his teeth to grit together as he lashed out in retaliation, aiming to punt her over like one would kick a ball, or a baby.

She'd hit... something, so that was a plus, and when her brother's leg struck out she relaxed her body to add dead weight to the landing. Sure it sent her sliding back a few steps, but it was nothing compared to the kicks she had seen Usagi do. Her teeth bared themselves in a fierce grin and she forced out a laugh instead of the groan that wanted to come with the blow. “He, I've met birds that kick harder.” The evidence was still painted across her face in angry pink slashes, but the comment was purely meant to taunt her brother as she crept closer to plant her front feet. She swung her hefty rear end around and kicked out with both back legs as she had seen their older brother do, hoping to land a blow right in the soft part of his stomach.

The orange of his eyes narrowed, ears flicking as he doubted her words. That's all she really had at her disposal, pointed words that didn't amount to much in Tachi's opinion. Tachi knew better than to try and grab her by the scruff he'd get a mouthful of pointed crystals if he did that, but those curved horns atop her head were practically handles. Ready for grabbing. Reaching down he followed as she turned, paws thudding against the tatami mats as they both pivoted in place, one aiming to kick and the other to grab. It wasn't the cleanest of fights, more of a tussle than anything else but Tachi was intent on winning, his teeth snapped in the air as he missed his initial lunge, only to try again as he reached down, thinking it was worth the risk.
