>[Kelly Omega knows 'the zone' when she sees it.]You know, when you get so deep into study you forget the world around you? At least Maaike seems to be eating; that was the thing Kelly O forgot. Until the tapes finished and she'd go to stand up, but the blood rush to her sustenance deprived brain would threaten to collapse her where she stood. Those were the days; before her debut, first title match, first tournament... Omega used to watch the old Goon Japan tapes and study [MONARCH] on the microphone; it was taboo being in the GJPW Dojo and watching All-Waifu Wrestling, but Omega studied Dorthe DiVanna and Gogo 69's classics; the National Waifu Alliance was where she learned her .50 Calibre Lock.
As Maaike seems to snap back to reality, Omega speaks softly.
"So look, there isn't a whole lot of tape on Torrie. I am pretty sure this was her only recorded match. But Camilla is a powerhouse, not too far from you in some ways. But between you and me, I've seen Torrie in the Dojo here. She's been training with the Barbarian, Tonya or whatever. So Tonya's a powerhouse too, and that is kind of exactly what you want in a trainer. Considering Violet and Train Girl are powerhouses too... well, tch, Torrie kind of lucked out there."
"It is gonna suck to hear this, Maaike, but sometimes difficult truths are better than convenient lies: Torrie Blossom is going to be tough. Of course, Araya was, too. But I mean... tch. How do I say this. Blossom is one of Priscilla Divine's handpicked little toys. You've seen what she did for the schizo Kade, the cheerleader -- before she died... -- and even the other two assholes the bigwigs don't want me naming."
