>"I actually came down here to listen Maria, but if you want to talk I'll talk and I'm not gonna pull any punches."Sitting cross-legged on the floor in front of a visibly defeated Holly Hope-Again, Amy gazes upward at the blonde.
>"Did you know that tonight was your third main event match? There's only one person who's main evented more shows than you and she ain't here anymore, so results aside I think you should be extremely proud of that."Amy readjusts her position.
>"So let's talk about tonight; your team didn't win and you took the fall, you fought your heart out and everyone watching saw it. From the look on your face I can see that's not a huge comfort to you, so let's move on to why the hell you were even there in the first place. Did those P.U.S.S.Y. people at least pay you in advance? What I want to know is why you keep putting your livelihood in the hands of people who don't give a shit about you. There's nothing wrong with being a merc or a lone wolf if it's working, but this ain't."Holly chuckles wryly, shaking her head as she does so.
>"You really do believe that? Don't you? Cristo, Amy, you really still are the same innocent little girl that followed the pros around like a puppy... Fighting doesn't mean shit if I keep coming up short. The "heart" or "grit" or whatever you want to call it don't matter if I keep getting put down by girls who I should be... no... girls who I act like I can beat. God knows I shouldn't be beating them. PUSSY paid me, I got my cut, and I got humiliated for it. Just another list of people I've let down, even if they were fuckhead employers."
