Hoshi: Well, Roy got into the roster, so I might as well write Marth and Lyn rubbing it into the Ylisseans' faces.
Warning: Surprise Skies of Arcadia references. OOC, but that's nothing new. Marth and Lyn are being jerks. Roy is one hundred percent done with all of you. Also, Mii fighters deserved better, so I'm giving them more.
-:-:-:-
"So, this is Yafutoma, huh?" Roy looked around in awe. "It's really beautiful…"
"Master Roy!" Wolt ran towards him. "They have a service where you can ride in these washtub-like boats!"
"That actually sounds pretty fun. Where-?!" Roy was interrupted as a beam of light enveloped him.
"…master Roy?!" Wolt stared at the space the redhead used to occupy. "St. Elimine, why did your beam of light claim my lord?! He's too young for it to be his time yet! I-oh."
Wolt paused in his grief to pick up a note that was left behind. A small, floating white-gloved hand floated away from the paper.
"Roy has been added to the Smash Bros roster! He'll be back when we decide to return him."
"When will that be?" Wolt asked the mini glove.
"I have no idea!" The glove chimed in a singsong tone. "Well, you'll get him back when we're done with him." The glove then went back into the note and disappeared with it altogether.
"…" Wolt narrowed his eyes at the space the glove and note used to occupy. "Damn Smash Bros tournaments and their kidnappings… Well, I suppose I'll have to report this to Captain Vyse and Marcus."
-:-:-:-
"-are they…?" Roy looked around, realizing he wasn't in Yafutoma anymore. The place did look familiar, though. Almost like a toybo-. Oh no. Hell no. "You've got to be kidding me!"
"NOPE!" Master Hand swung in cheerily, updating Roy's outfit to fit SSB4's standards. "Now go visit your mom and your angry not-boyfriend before they try to kill off my newcomers."
"I thought I told them to calm the hell down…" Roy sighed. "I should've accepted that bottle of loqua from Vyse when I had the chance. Doing this completely smashed would've been a better option."
"Don't you just sleep with nearly everyone when you get drunk?" Master Hand reminded him.
"Better than dealing with any of this sober!" Roy threw his hands in the air. "Feh, I guess someone's gotta be the reasonable one in this franchise, and I can't leave Ike to do it on his own."
-:-:-:-
"SURPRISE BITCHES!" Master Hand announced eloquently. "I bet you thought you'd seen the last of Roy! Well, you thought wrong! 'Cause he's back!" He gestured dramatically to the redhead.
"I'm…happy to be back." Roy beamed. Sheesh, he was finding it hard to even pretend to be happy.
"Roy?!" that sounded like Marth's voice. And then the audience was blown away as a blue-haired man closed in on the redhead. Yep, that was definitely Marth. The Altean lord scanned him, apparently still surprised. "I…I can't believe…!"
"I can't really believe it either." Roy chuckled, feeling a little genuine happiness. Marth drew him into a tight hug.
"I've missed you." Marth admitted.
"Not more than me." Lyn said. Wait, when did she-? "Get off my son, Marth." The Altean lord narrowed his eyes at her before letting Roy go. He supposed it was only fair since she was Roy's mom, after all.
"It's good to see you as well, mother." Roy smiled as she embraced him.
"Your father would be proud." Lyn commented as she let go of him.
Roy opened his mouth to say something when he noticed the ominous black auras surrounding Lucina and the Robins. Well, they looked new!
"Um…" was what Roy ultimately ended up saying.
"I can't believe…" Robin (The Queen) started.
"…the Young Lion…" Robin (The King) continued.
"…joined instead of father." Lucina finished.
"IN YOUR FAAAAAAACE!" Marth and Lyn gloated.
Roy frowned and crossed his arms. "Be nice to the newcomers, you two." Roy's scolding fell on deaf ears. He sighed as Ike walked up to him and led him away.
"They're just spiteful because they lost to Lucina and the two tacticians in a 99 stock match." Ike informed him. "It's only a matter of time before they demand a rematch, and I don't think you want to get involved in that."
Roy huffed. "You know what? Someone's got to put an end to this nonsense! I'm going to go schedule a match."
"Roy, no." Ike whined.
"Don't tell me how to live my life!" Roy scheduled the match cheerily.
-:-:-:-
"Special Edition: Fire Emblem Team Match Throwdown!" Master Hand announced. "For the Blue Team, we have Marth Lowell and Lyndis!"
Marth didn't even spare a glance at the crowd while Lyn waved to all her fans.
"For the Green Team, we have Lucina and the Robins!" Master Hand gestured to the Ylisseans.
"Ha, we kind of sound like a band." Robin (Alpha Female) chuckled as they all waved to their fans.
"And for the Red Team, we have Roy, Ike, and Chrom!" Master Hand gestured to the last of the Fire Emblem fighters.
"Wait, Roy, why?" Marth and Lyn protested.
"B-but Chrom/Father!" The Robins and Lucina also protested respectively.
"I'm not fighting alongside two elitists who treat their fellow franchise members like dirt." Roy crossed his arms and turned away.
"I just wanted to fight a match." Chrom admitted. "But I do wish you three would go back to acting normally again too."
"Just so you know, if our team wins, you guys have to make up, all right?" Roy clarified. "And don't hold back, either! I don't want to hear any complaints when you lose."
Marth exchanged looks with Lyn while the Robins shared uneasy looks with Lucina.
"Ashera, this can't end well…" Ike shook his head.
"Ready? Go!" The announcer voice boomed.
It wasn't even three seconds before Ike was launched off the stage in a complete OHKO. Roy narrowed his eyes at the Hero King, who quickly avoided his gaze.
"Marth!" If Roy was the type to put his hands on his hips, he'd be doing it now.
"What?" Marth feigned innocence. "I couldn't hurt you." Roy grunted in annoyance at that.
"When I said, 'don't hold back,' I meant against me!" The Pheraen lord crossed his arms.
"I refuse to lay my hands on my child." Lyn informed him resolutely.
"And I've no wish to hurt my father." Lucina added.
"You didn't hesitate at Fort Ferox." Chrom pointed out. "We also spar all the time. Just think of it like that."
Lucina raised her blade while her father raised his to block. Before Lucina could complete the swing, she flinched and ended up re-sheathing her Falchion. "Ugh, it's like that one timeline where I accidentally killed you at Fort Ferox! I'm getting flashbacks; I can't do this!" She shook her head.
"Hah!" Robin (Omega Male) scoffed. "Try being the vessel for a fellgod dragon! In most timelines, I was forced to kill him, abuse my children, and I ruled the world with zombies! Ahahahaha…"
"And it's even worse when you have the option to marry him." Robin (Mademoiselle) nodded. "Some timelines I get to raise Lucina only to be forced to rip away her entire world… And then I get to live with the knowledge that what I did to her would've hurt Chrom more than anything…"
"…how are your poor tacticians still sane with memories like that?" Roy whispered to Chrom, the broken looks on the Robins' faces were scaring him.
"No one knows," Chrom shrugged, "but I've admired their strength all the same."
"I really can't touch Roy/Chrom, but I can hurt Chrom/the Young Lion." The Blue Team and the Green Team said respectively.
An awkward silence followed. Marth and Lyn slowly made eye contact with Lucina and the Robins before both sides launched at each other.
"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY FATHER!" Lucina charged a Shieldbreaker.
"YOU BACK THE HELL OFF MY SON!" Lyn gripped the hilt of her Mani Katti, adjusting her stance.
"Hurt Chrom, and you die!" Robin (Fraulein) dashed forward with her Levin Sword drawn while Robin (Hombre) charged a Thoron.
"Hurt Roy, and you'll wish you had died!" Marth fended off both attacks from the strategists.
Roy and Chrom watched the heated fight in front of them with unimpressed looks. A smash ball floated onto the stage while Blue Team and Green Team fought, but neither team seemed to pay it any mind, so wrapped up in each other.
"Want to try pairing up?" Chrom suggested to Roy.
"All right, sounds like we could get 'em all that way." Roy agreed, going after the smash ball.
"Did the stage suddenly get darker?" Lyn noticed while blocking one of Lucina's strikes. The Blue and Green Teams turned their attention to a glowing Roy.
"CRITICAL HIT!" Roy's final smash knocked them off the stage at an angle and towards…
"We're not done, yet!" …Chrom, who angled the two teams into the air. Lyn and the tacticians turned into twinkles in the sky while Marth and Lucina faceplanted against the screen.
"Game!" The Announcer concluded. "This winner is…RED TEAM!"
"One hell of a way to start off your comeback." Ike commended Roy…in a full-body cast.
"Well, it was either get them to get along or spend most of my time getting plastered." Roy rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
"Wait, aren't you too young to drink?" Chrom asked.
"Don't tell the liquor-sellers that!" Roy shushed him. "It's never too late for Smash Bros to pull off more bullshit that I might need to get drunk to deal with."
"Roy, you can't fool the liquor-sellers." Ike shook his head as much as he was able in a full-body cast. "You might not look fifteen anymore, but you definitely still look too young for alcohol."
"We'll see about that!" Roy cackled.

When Ryu joined the roster, that was when Mii Brawler knew…
Why didn't they vote for this guy in the first place?! He was, like, prime fighter material right here! Just what Smash Brothers was missing!
…Oh, but then their vote would've been wasted, huh?
Well, at least they didn't have to re-do their votes or anything. After Roy got into the roster, Marth, Lyn, and Ike literally stopped caring about whoever else got into the roster and weren't in any condition to recast their ballots.
Master Hand certainly tried, though…
"Add Goku to the roster, I don't care." Marth rolled his eyes. "I got the only person worth giving a damn for anyway."
"And we can go fishing and do sparring and have picnics and other Mother-Son bonding activities." Lyn clasped her hands, sparkles in her eyes. Yeah, there…wasn't really any way to make her recast her ballot…
"Like I'd want to subject my friends to this toybox…" Ike crossed his arms. "At least Roy is already used to this craziness…"
"I'm giving up on your franchise forever." Master Hand threw himself into the air.

And has Mii Swordfighter finally picked a worthy swordmaster from the ever extensive list of fictional sword-users?
No.
Because Smash Bros already has one…two…one-fifth of the roster as sword-fighters, and Mii Swordfighter didn't see the point in adding anymore.
So, Mii Swordfighter chose…!
Oh wow, is Lloyd Irving a costume for the Mii Swordfighters?! Lloyd Irving?!
Mii Swordfighter can be Lloyd Irving now?
Forget revealing the vote, Mii Swordfighter can be Lloyd Irving!
LLOYD.
IRVING.
YEAH!
Except he doesn't use two swords, so it's all a sham in the end…
STILL, LLOYD IRVING, THOUGH!
-:-:-:-
Hoshi: Okay, now the ride is over! Hope you enjoyed the extra stretch!
Hoshi: What about that follow-up story to Smash Support? Well, I think I should hold off on that until Smash Bros is done adding things. Also, it would be a really bad idea to try to get between KN and her computer right now…
