"Are you EFFING kidding me right now?"
Storming into the room, Ryan threw her arms up into the air as a look of sheer exasperation was set upon her face. Unfazed by her friend's dramatic flair, Tsukiko continued about her business of beating the stuffing out of the punching bag that hung before her; dangling like a carrot in front of a rabbit.
"Seriously! Why would you agree to a match against Lissie Hope of all people! When the woman isn't killin' the careers of mid-carders on Clash she's trying to kill herself! Her ego has long since gone to her dopey lookin' head and I HIGHLY doubt she gives a damn what happens once she's had her way with CruiserClash. I bet it'll just be back to business once she's back on Clash in a month!"
THWACK!
Once the stars had cleared from her vision, Ryan looked up at the foreboding image of Tsukiko as she stood over her; a red mark already forming upon her face where her friend had slapped her.
"W-what the fuck was that for?!"
{"That is not something to take lightly."}
"W-what are you-"
{"Suicide is neither a laughing matter nor is it something to be made light of. Understand?"}
With a remorseful look upon her face, Ryan silently nodded. Tsukiko was right of course; suicide wasn't a laughing matter and anyone that might be suffering from such thoughts needed to be helped; whether they liked it or not. Life was a precious thing.
{"Good. Now rise to your feet with a more grounded perception of things."}
Offering a hand, Tsukiko helped her friend back up to her feet; a red handprint clearly marking Ryan's left cheek.
"Grounded? How? It's Lisse Effin' Hope."
{"And?"}
"LISSIE. EFFING. HOPE."
{"I see, even you are wrapped within the illusion of dominance that she shrouds herself with."}
"Pardon?"
{"Hope-san is a woman who has contributed endless hours of time and discipline so that she might obtain the glory and recognition that she has always dreamed of. For that, she should be rightly honored and respected. However, that does not deviate from the fact that she is only human and humans are far from invincible; regardless of their delusions. Although, I must say that it can be quite entertaining to witness"}
"Hold up. Are you saying that you respect her despite how much of a flippity-floppit biznitch she has been and continues to be? I mean, you can't parade around calling yourself things like THE CHAMPION OF ALL WOMEN and ACTION WRESTLING'S ONLY HEROINE without being a major effin' cu-"
{"That is precisely what I am saying. Hope-san is a woman that has put forth the effort and has earned the right to reap the benefits that come along with that. Even so, I am not allowing the myth that has been developed along the way to cloud my judgment nor blind me to the facts."}
"Okay, that's all well and good but I highly doubt she even considers this match a warm-up and is completely disregarding you as a competitor. It's kinda what those shmucks on Clash tend to do. Ya know, give each other verbal handjobs until it's time to stop. Then they just act like apes and go ham with the verbiage until you're either mentally fuckered or pass out from sheer boredom. There really isn't any middle ground with them."
With a half-hearted shrug, Tsukiko turned her attention back to the punching bag; rhythmic combinations soon connecting.
"That's it? That's all you have to say?"
With those questions hanging in the air, Tsukiko faced her friend once more. This time a look of fierceness burning in her eyes.
{"What is it that you want me to say? That I accept the perceived notion of the fans that Hope-san is going to mop the floor with me? In case you have forgotten, I and Tsukiko; THE Shimmering Kitsune! There is no way, under ANY circumstance, that I am going to back down from a fight! Unlike some within Actin Wrestling, I am unafraid of facing defeat and I will continue to hone my craft and perfect my style!"}
"Crushing delusions along the way, right?"
{"Of course!"}
