[ Riou squats and takes a fighting stance as well, starting to slowly circle Jakurai. He's looking for whatever the closest thing to an opening he can perceive is before he moves forward, unless Jakurai moves first. ]
[Jakurai holds a defensive until he can really get a read on Riou. Jakurai is quick, but the quick tactic only works so many times. He doesn't really want to knock the wind out of the guy either....he will approach this fight/spar with more calculation than he originally thought.]
[ If Jakurai ends up knocking the wind out of him, Riou will be impressed. He can tell that Jakurai is fast and more slender, so it's likely that he's expecting Riou to wear himself out as a larger, more strength-based opponent. Riou has to be careful to watch his stamina in a battle like this.
Eventually, he launches a tackle at Jakurai's legs to try to knock him to the ground. ]

Let me know when you're ready.
