So, Ramona's preview just came out, and the people are talking.
Zelda finished the video, and immediately came to one single conclusion.
"Ramona stomps."
Cloud sighed, "She can drag the fight to a place where she has the home field advantage. The only actual advantage that Amy girl has is speed, and even then, Ramona's used to being chased."
Zelda rolled her eyes, "Seven evil exes." she deadpanned, "Now, if you'll excuse me," she moved a hand to her head, "I need to find a spell to purge that image of Boomstick's projectile vomit."
Cloud shuddered, "Save one for me!" he called after her.
"Get Yang's girlfriend to do it for you!"
"But-" Cloud paused, "Wait, did she mean Tifa or Blake?" He waited a little bit before resuming his thought, "Wait, can Blake even learn that kind of magic?"
"I was talking about Tifa!" Zelda called from several rooms over.
"Oh…" Cloud realized.
"Wait, Tifa doesn't know how to use therapeutic magic! At least, not the mental health kind…"
"Well, not with magic anyways but still…"
"Dude. Why are you talking to yourself?"
"Shut up Wade."
"So, why are we doing this in the first place?" Tracer asked.
"Look Tracer," Green Arrow sighed, "You have got to get over this…" He made several strange gestures with his hands, "Thing you have with snipers."
"I do not have a thing for Amélie." Lena protested.
Ollie raised an eyebrow, "Oh really? I didn't mention a name." He smirked.
The pilot blushed, "Uh, well… I uh…" she babbled.
"Exactly."
"Wait, why are we talking about me? Why aren't we talking about the upcoming fight?" Tracer recovered.
"Ramona can force a home field advantage with Subspace. A lot like Scorpion with the Netherrealm, or Flash with the Speed Force." The Emerald Archer replied.
"Oh. Has there ever been a fight where home field advantage was forced, and the fighter didn't win?"
"Nobody comes to mind." Green Arrow admitted.
"And as for the fans?"
Green Arrow sighed, "They seem to be refusing to acknowledge the fact that Sonic and Tails both won their respective fights. Against Mario and Luigi even, two fighters who have a better track record with successful games than them."
"Wow." Tracer blinked (the action, not the ability), "That seems… petty."
"It really, really is." Oliver sighed, "It's almost as annoying as Street Fighter fans refusing to remember that Blanka won his fight."
"To be fair, that was all the way back in season one." Tracer admitted.
"Still doesn't change the fact that they're being assholes."
Sonic and Tails were setting up the med bay. They were at least 99% sure that Ramona would win, so they were making sure that the room would be comfortable for Amy when she got to the hotel.
"Okay, we have the soft-serve ready for her when she gets here, right?"
Sonic looked around, "Nope. One sec," The hedgehog ran out in a blue blur of light, then returned in seven seconds, "Sorry I'm late. There was a bit of traffic on the way to the kitchen."
"What kind of traffic?"
"Guts was using Dante as target practice for his arrows." Sonic replied.
"Again?" Tails asked, exasperated, "That's like…"
"The thirteenth time this month." Sonic finished.
"Thirteenth?" Tails asked, "I thought it was fourteen."
Sonic shook his head, "No. There was a misfire of one of Hawkeye's Pym Particle Arrows. And it was Deadpool that got hit by those." He clarified, "It happened like, just after Ken got here. Apparently, he was with Peach, Bowser, Shadow and some other guys, and Deadpool ticked him off a little too much."
"Huh."
"Yeah."
"You know that ice cream is going to melt if we don't get a cooler soon, right?" Tails asked after about a full minute of silence.
Sonic sighed, "I'll be right back."
Deadpool: Five bucks nets you ten that the Sonic fans will get all mad and fan 'rage-y' when Amy loses.
That's an idiotic bet, Wade. Freakin' everyone knows that they'll rage. Fandoms are nuts like that.
Deadpool: Worth a shot.
It really wasn't. It's fairly obvious that they'll outright refuse to acknowledge the fact that Sonic, Tails, and I guess Metal Sonic on a technicality, all won their fights. Getting them to acknowledge that Screwattack isn't biased in that regard is like trying to claim the rights to all these characters. It's just not going to happen.
