Shipping the SDRA2 Cast With Each Other

Kagasai/Shinji Kasai x Yuri Kagarin

Yuri didn't know what he had done to deserve this punishment as he grumbled in the workout room. The 'punishment' he was being subjected to was having to join Shinji, Hajime and Yuki in training at the moment.

As an astronaut, Yuri needed to keep up his fitness, but a bad windstorm had come onto Utsuroshima and had distressed the students while making a mess, so Monocrow kept them all inside the boat for the day. Yuri had seen what the outside looked like from the third floor balcony, and the roads were enough of a tripping hazard with all the branches as Monocrow worked hard.

The reason why Yuri had initially gone into the workout room was because he found out that Sora was working out in there and wanted to join her, and he stayed because she was working out with a few of the other guys and wanted to 'protect her from them,' in his words. She had ended up leaving, but said that she would come back in a bit.

Sora had been gone for ten minutes, and Yuri was hoping that she wasn't getting distracted by anything. While he was deep in his thoughts while training, he didn't notice someone coming up up him and tapping him on the shoulder.

"Wha-? Oh, it's you." He sighed, recognizing Shinji standing over him. "What do you want?"

"Uh, there's a really red mark on your leg, that's all. I think you should rest it and not exercise your legs for now." The firefighter recommended. "I've seen those marks before, I think it's a muscle injury."

Yuri looked down at his legs and noticed the red patch on the side of his left leg. He hadn't noticed it before, but he only felt a bit of a tingling sensation from it. "I do not feel any pain from there. You are wasting your breath." He stated, going back to his sit-ups.

Shinji was a little concerned, despite his rejection. "But Yuri-"

"Don't bother, he's not gonna listen to you." Hajime sighed. "Let's just continue for now, he'll ask for help when he needs it."

No more was spoken between the boys and Yuri for a good five minutes as they continued to work out, and Yuri had gotten started on stretching his muscles to not get cramps in them after exercising. Unfortunately, the more he stretched his legs, the more the tingling was turning into a worse feeling.

Finally, Yuri decided to consider Shinji's advice and tried to get up and leave, but his injured leg ended up buckling under him. The three others in the room immediately noticed his fall and the quiet Russian cussing, and Shinji came back over.

"Are you alright, man? Here, let me help you." He bent down and tried to help Yuri stand up, despite the spaceman batting him away with his hands.

"I, uh, think you need to check on his leg. It looks worse than before." Yuki noticed, and everyone noticed how red that leg was now compared to before.

"Here, I'll take you to the infirmary and get you fixed up." Shinji decided, carefully hoisting Yuri into his arms.

"Ew ew ew. You're so gross." The spaceman grumbled. "At least wash your sweaty hands before picking me up with them. And what medical experience do you have?"

"Firefighters are actually given basic first aid training, so I have experience with these kinds of things." The taller boy reassured. "And besides, my help is much cheaper than Syobai's."

Yuri huffed and ended up staying quiet for the rest of being carried from the workout room to the infirmary. When they got inside, Shinji placed Yuri on one of the beds, and Sora was reading in one of the chairs.

"Sora?! You were here?!" They exclaimed, and the albino looked up from her book. Now that they noticed her, they could see that she had a bandage around her ankle and an empty plate on the small table next to her.

"Oh, uh, funny story." She chuckled awkwardly. "I started getting cramps, thought it was that time of the month, and went upstairs to get a pad. I put one on, started heading down the stairs, and passed by Mikado and ending up tripping on his cape. He started getting annoyingly weepy and teleported us here, but he did give me a free meal as an 'apology' while I bandaged myself up. Now I'm waiting for the painkillers to kick in to I can head back to my room. Or I could ask Mikado for a ride."

Yuri was so focused on her story that he didn't notice Shinji evaluating his leg, putting an ointment on it, and wrapping a bandage around it. "There, that should be good. I'll grab you a painkiller; and Sora, I'll tell Hajime and Yuki what happened." The firefighter promised.

Yuri huffed and looked away, wishing that his ears were hurt instead of his leg.
