WE ARE MAVERICK, WE WON’T GIVE IN UNTIL WE WIN THIS GAME | |
 name Souvenir tagged @jeffdeliversmail words 749 notes At first I struggled…but then it kinda got going to a point I had to chop bits off to make the word limit, lol. I hope it is a decent enough read anyway. | “Parabellum didn’t go the ideal way…but at least I got Shannon and Sarah a souvenir each.” Enter our ears as we find ourselves inside ConexionCafe. Why are we inside an internet cafe? Because Otaki happens to be sitting by one of the computers, seemingly fixated on something on screen. Though instead of letting us look at what she was interested in, Megan turns her seat around to greet us with a smile before speaking up. “But there are only so many sidequests one can do before the main story can be tackled…and the second chapter of my main story, my first PRIME appearance under a PRIME contract, is to fight against Mark Keaton. You know, the guy who - alongside me - failed to win for PRIME in that big battle royal at Parabellum…so you could almost say that, if anything, this is a battle of losers with the hope that getting a win in the Windy City could reignite the winning ways of old…” The milky skinned woman couldn’t help but chuckle for a moment before shrugging lightly. “Just hearing those four little words makes me feel like such an old fogey. And yet that is kind of what I’ve become, with a legacy that was so great and memorable…a legacy that could’ve ended with an almighty roar but instead a mere whimper. Why did I sabotage that beautiful ending and risk permanently damaging my own legacy to come to PRIME? I have my reasons and truth be told, in the not so long time since I’ve returned, there are many people that have made me think ‘damn, I’d love to get a piece of them’…” While speaking Megan allows an almost childlike smile to appear on her face…though it was quick to crumble after a brief pause. “Though, truth also be told, RMK wasn’t one of them. When I first heard of them, no…the very moment I heard the word ‘Remarkable’…I was hoping, praying even, that he’d be some high level behemoth that would require me to pull off some Dark Soul level skills to overcome. Instead, once I actually looked up who RMK is, I was struck by a tsunami of disappointment after tsunami of disappointment. I at least expected a man who’d be able to fight with the kind of grit stereotypically associated with ice hockey players…but instead he gives me the impression of a mere child cosplaying as an eighties star because his parents wouldn’t put anything else on the radio. But then Parabellum happened and - though it ended in defeat for me, him and nearly everyone who represented PRIME - it spun a new perspective on things. For I got to actually face off against RMK…sure, there was like cluster of others clogging the battlefield like Kett across Andromeda, thus robbing me of a true chance to know what Mark Keaton could really do, but from what I managed to see him do I can say…he somewhat impressed me. I could see an actual desire to win, I could see a sign of intelligence ticking in his head and I could see someone who would’ve won at Parabellum if it wasn’t for me giving his chances that night a Grand Finale. And it is all because of those things that I can say that, without a shadow of a doubt that…” The Purple Haired Dynamo motions us to come closer. So we did and she didn’t waste any time in whispering the following words out towards us. “Joey’s Rattata has a better chance against the Elite Four than Mark Keaton does against me this Sunday.” The laughter that followed was loud enough to make us step back a bit as a massive smile crawls upon the Englishwoman’s face. “Sure he has the size and strength advantage over me, while his determination isn’t something to look down upon, but I’ve faced bigger, stronger and more determined people than him and each time I’ve turned them humble. So don’t anyone think I’d hesitate to do the same to Mark to win my first PRIME match as an official PRIME superstar. But hey, if you’re actually watching this, don’t get upset about losing to me Mark…I hear that Chicago has some amazing souvenir stores available to give your Windy City memory a happy ending.” After rather condescendingly saying her words the Otaki grabs her things, gets up from her seat and heads out of the cafe…revealing what is on her computer screen in the process…  |
