>>5353848“So!” Talbot pants as the two of you draw closer to the <span class="mu-g">ARENA,</span> “Whatcha’ gonna give me when I win my match, huh?”
Slowly recovering from the sudden hand-holding, you do what you do best and come out swinging! No clue, you growl–wasn’t he planning on taking those girls <span class="mu-i">dancing</span>?
“Uh… I err..” He stammers as he nearly trips into the crowd surrounding the ring, “That wasn’t-”
Just focus on <span class="mu-i">winning</span>, tough guy, you add in an unimpressed tone. As they say: don’t count your chipmunks before they crash!
“I’ll count whatever I want!” Replies the janitor with renewed confidence! “You know me, Stan–who the hell are they gonna toss at me that can-”
“Oh good, you made it.” Interrupts the skeleton in the sparkly green coat as he flags you two down. “Hurry yer’ ass up–your opponent’s waitin’ for ya.”
Releasing your hand, Talbot gives the announcer’s comments a dismissive wave! “Yea, yea… keep your coat on, twinkle-toes!” Glancing back at you one last time, your ex-bodyguard flashes you a cocky smile! “Wish me luck, yea?”
Uh-huh, you nod with a grin slowly forming on your unimpressed face, knock ‘em dead!
Striding into the ring with both arms lifted in the air, Talbot works the crowd like a pro–waving and pointing finger guns all over the audience, he takes his place on one side of the ring only after the MC finally coaxes everyone into shutting up!
“<span class="mu-s">AaAAAAaaaND HIS OPPONENT IN THIS DAVID AND GOLIATH MATCHUP: DON’T LET HER LOOKS DECEIVE YOU, FOLKS, SHE’S A LIT FIRECRACKER! GIVE IT UP FOR… KIIIIIIIIKIIIII!!!!!</span>”
https://youtu.be/JHQa1SA3EtI“Oh <span class="mu-i">SNAP</span>!” Ly exclaims as your team’s pint-sized machine gunner enters the ring with grim determination hidden behind her bangs! As Talbot watches in disbelief, the film student chucks a spent plastic cup to the side as she enters! With killer instinct burning in her obscured eyes, she also takes her time with the crowd by dramatically cupping her hand to her ear and motioning for the skeletons to give it up!
“<span class="mu-r">Well, now!</span>” Nats observes as the two fighters prepare for combat, “<span class="mu-r">This oughta’ be exciting!</span>”
Sure, you nod, but you don’t know who the heck to root for!
Shoving your way through the forest of skeletons, you manage to find a decent viewing spot near the front just in time for the starting bell!
<span class="mu-b">Let’s see how this plays out! ROLL ME 2d100–one for TALBOT, one for KIKI! I’LL TAKE THE BEST OF 3 ROLLS FOR EACH!
Here’s where you REALLY come in, though: If you WRITE-IN which character you wanna CHEER FOR, they’ll get a BONEUS to the rolls! I’m guessing there will be about ONE OR TWO MORE ROLLS BEFORE THE FIGHT IS DONE! Get going!</span>
