(This is from the perspective of my player Tsuyu Asui)
"...and now we will focus on one of the more interesting and unusual prospects in the upcoming ISFL draft and her name is Tsuyu Asui a wide receiver from the London Royals. To me she is one of the biggest boom or bust prospects in the draft and I personally don't see her going as high as she is projected in this draft. She will ether be a throw away pick or a major steal in maybe the 4th round and then she will spend another year with the Royals where we will see how good she can be as WR1 -"
I turned off the TV in anger and sighed to myself. Honestly I didn't really care where I am drafted but to hear that analyst Mike Sportsman call me a "boom or bust in the 4th round" prospect kind of put a damper on my mood. I should probably introduce myself. I am Tsuyu Asui and today was the day of the ISFL draft. I decided not to attend the actual draft so I can have a draft party at my London condo.
I then hear the teapot whistle and just sigh to myself as I make myself a cup of calming herbal tea. Life in London had made me a bit addicted to it and it does help calm my nerves quite a bit. I then then work on my homemade pizzas while waiting for my friends to arrive. I had invited some of my friends from UA and only a few could make the plane trip but that's alright. I'd imagine a trip from Japan to the UK would be quite a flight.
I had just put the pizzas in the oven and was working on some hommade fruit punch when the doorbell rang. I quickly looked at myself in the mirror to make sure I looked okay and opened the door to see Deku, Mina, Ochako, and a skinny All-Might all feeling the effects of heavy jet lag. I gave them all welcoming hugs and welcomed them into the condo.
"The flight was so long..." Mina said collapsing into the couch "plus it was delayed by an hour...been up since 6 am.." I could tell. She looked more tired then the rest of them. Hell Deku looked like he fell asleep on the flight because he looked relatively awake.
"Got anything to eat?" Might asked "I'm starving. Only ate peanuts on the flight because I don’t trust airplane food-" as if on cue Ochako dashed to my bathroom and locked the door "not saying I told her so but..."
"Good thing this place has two bathrooms" I giggle "anyways pizzas are in the oven and I have snacks in the kitchen. We have a few hours before the draft starts so let's just catch up" I show them around the condo after getting All-might some pretzels and Deku sees the uniforms i hanged up.
"I guess you weren't wrong when you said they were custom made" He says as he looks at my Royals jersey. "It doesn't look to different from your hero outfit"
"Yeah I gave them my hero outfit to base it off of." I say, smiling as I reminisce "I learned pretty quickly how hard it would be to keep up a secret identity along with doing this"
"Even the helmets look custom" Mina says, examining one I had laying around "must have cost a lot when it was made"
"Ehh the team covered the coat" I smile then Ochako comes out of the bathroom with a relived looks on her face
"Never eating airline food again!" She yelled "All-might I swear if you tell me that you told me so..."
"Already got it out of my system don't worry" he says and I hear my oven going off so I pull the pizzas out of the oven. One was meat-lovers, one cheese, and one was a recipe I learned myself that has a combination of mushrooms and garlic and pepperoni on it.
"Eat up guys i know you are all hungry...actually Ochako maybe you should wait a bit aheh" I say as I remember her bathroom run.
"Don't worry I am gonna wait until it is all out of my system" she sighs and everyone gets a few slices and eats up, including her about am hour later.
"Hmmm this is delicious!" Mina smiles "where did you get the recipe?"
"I learned them from a few different people" I say "the mushroom one is from trying things out. I got into cooking as a hobby"
"Well you are pretty good at it" She says between bites and eventually a few hours later the draft finally starts up. "Look no matter where you are taken i am sure you will be happy" she says as she pats my nervous back
"I know...but so many people are trying to put me down" I then tell them about what Mike Sportsman said about what kind of prospect I am in this draft "what he said just makes me mad and I know what he said should not bother me but it kind of does..."
"Look no matter where you are taken you will ether be a knock out pick early on or a huge steal later on. No matter where you go I trust you will do your best" All-Might smiles as they all hug me.
"T-thanks guys" I say, a little teary eyed. The unfortunate part is that we had a long while to wait until I got that elusive phone call. Like over 2 rounds of me not getting picked to wait. But eventually the phone rang waking up a sleeping Mina. Caller ID says the call is coming from Philadelphia. "H-hello this is Tsuyu Asui of the London Royals speaking"
"Hey Tsuyu this is Cody one of the GMs of the Philadelphia Liberty, how are you doing?' The voice says as my excitement grows
"I feel great. Tired and anxious, but great" I say honestly.
"That is completely understandable. Look we are about to draft you into our great franchise but I need you to know that you will probably be spending another year in the DSFL before we call you up, is that okay with you?"
"Umm sure! That is completely okay with me I was expecting that anyways."
"That is great to hear! Listen we are building something great here and I hope you will be a part of it. Welcome to the Liberty." We then end the call as the ISFL Commissioner Bex comes onto the podium.
"With the second pick in the third round of the ISFL draft the Philadelphia Liberty select Tsuyu Asui of the London Royals and the University of Kentucky!" At that my friends all give me a big group hug as I let all my emotions out and cry happily. I am so happy to have finally had this moment and I can't wait to see what happens next.
