"You're reading TvTropes?"
"Yeah, why?"
Yang was astounded that Tifa would read something so cynical, so sarcastic, so rude, so spoilerific…
And so goddamn addicting!
"What article are you reading?" Yang asked excitedly, sitting down on her one bag, and a Strawberry Sunrise in hand.
"The article called Guilt-Based Gaming. It's about calling the player out for doing certain things. There's even one from my series." Tifa explained.
"Oh?"
"Well, Dissidia anyways, but still." Tifa replied sheepishly.
After going through several other articles, the ended up on one that they dreaded finding: The Death Battle review page.
"Ugh. This section is painful."
"I'm with you on that one Xiao Long." Tifa agreed. They kept scrolling through the page.
"Well, the person who just said it was 'Fun, if flawed' is rather reasonable." Yang pointed out.
"I do enjoy that guy who called out the angry fans who still claim that your victory was only due to the partnership between the two companies." Tifa agreed.
"Yep, you either Love it, or Hate it." Yang pointed out.
They kept scrolling through the various pages on the website. Laughing at some of the various pages, shedding some tears at the tearjerker pages Ultimately, they finally ended up enjoying themselves.
"We should swap stories about what our friends' reactions were to the other Death Battles." Tifa suggested.
"Yeah, I remember Weiss' reaction to Green Arrow losing."
A few weeks ago, at Beacon…
"OH COME ON!" Much like Ruby's scream of defiance when she saw the Blue Bomber's loss, several birds were scared off of the roof of the school. Yang was finally convinced to come out of her box…
Didn't stop her from wearing three-inch thick plate body armor all over her body.
"What's wrong this time Weiss?" Pyrrha asked the heiress,
Weiss looked shocked, "Wha- What's wrong? These guys are clearly biased against rich people!" She answered with venom in her voice.
"How did you come to that logic Weiss-cream?"
"Batman lost to some idiotic photographer, Harry Potter lost to some son of a slave, Beast lives in a mansion and lost to some flying gorilla with wings, and now some farm boy just beat a millionaire!" She rebuttaled.
"And yet, Batman beat up Captain America, Toph defeated Gaara, Rogue also lives in a mansion and defeated Wonder Woman, and I'm pretty sure that Samus has more money from her bounties than Boba Fett." Ruby pointed out.
Weiss merely grumbled in response.
Yang perked up for a bit, "Well, on the bright side there hasn't been any attempts on my li-"
CHING!
She was cut off by a VERY large razor-blade blade embedding itself a quarter of an inch in her plate armor. A faint 'sonnova bitch!' was heard off on the other side of the auditorium as several people ran out.
Yang simply sighed.
"Well, that's nothing compared to all the outrage when Charizard" Tifa replied.
A few weeks ago, in AVALANCHE HQ.
"Tai's tactics are very dishonorable. Attacking a foe like that is unfair." Red XIII replied with a growl.
"I grew up with Charizard. I hate how they killed him off." Barret replied with a growl, reigning in his rage for the sake of Marline, who was sitting in his lap.
"I hate how these fuc- er, jerks killed off Red too. That was really unnecessary." Cid replied, catching himself before Barret could blast his arm off for teaching the sweet girl foul language.
Cloud scoffed, "Oh, So Red constantly trying to catch Tai's digimon and being the one who initiated the fight wasn't dishonorable?" He reasoned, making Red XIII grumble a bit.
"This is Death Battle. The keyword being 'death' here." Tifa pointed out, resting an icepack on her neck, "One of the fighters in question must die, or end up without a working mortal avatar to continue with." She said, giving a glare that Barret and Cid backed off at.
"Besides, it's like Tifa and Cloud said," Marline pointed out, "They get resurrected after the fight, with the only thing being phantom pains in the area that was the cause of death."
"Hm, do you ever think this whole time we spent together could be used in some weird fanfiction?" Yang asked.
"I doubt it," Tifa continued, "But it would be interesting."
AN: Self-praising line is self-praising. But the reference to TvTropes should be a hint… As in, can someone recomend me on the site? - Ugh, I have no shame.
