We rejoin the two sisters, with Kuro-Hana still on her phone and KITSUNE seeming to have broken her trance.
[KITSUNE] Whoa, I spaced out there for a minute. My bad.
[Hana] Yeah, you do that sometimes.
[KITSUNE] Anyway, have you looked into your opponent yet?
[Hana] Asian Strip-Me Barbie? Yeah, I have.
There's a brief silence as KITSUNE stares at Hana, who continues to play on her phone.
[KITSUNE] And?
Hana lets out an annoyed sigh and lowers her phone.
[Hana] Mulan Li. Asian-American. Short, but with some weight on her frame. Combines cheating with some mild athleticism and martial arts, mostly kicks.
KITSUNE smirks.
[KITSUNE] Kicks, eh? Are they on your level?
[Hana] No.
[KITSUNE] You seem pretty sure of that.
[Hana] Of course I am. I've seen her type before. She goes to the gym often, but she's not training or working out for wrestling. She's working out to look "fleek", or "hott" or whatever other stupid term is being used nowadays. She's all about look. The things I do don't just look good, they hurt too. For the sake of her selfies, I hope she knows how to cover up bruises.
[KITSUNE] Would you say there's anything she's better at than you?
[Hana] I dunno, Instagram? Facebook? Probably social media in general. That's not gonna help her when my foot's upside her head, but I'm sure she'll make an awesome post about it when she regains consciousness.
KITSUNE can't help but chuckle a bit at her sister's outburst.
[KITSUNE] Even when you're fired up, you sound like you don't give a shit.
[Hana] It's a gift.
[KITSUNE] Did you watch her match last week?
[Hana] Kinda. She got smacked around with a log by Ishimori. Wasn't really impressed with anything she did. She's honestly not a threat to me. I'm sure some of her loser neckbeard fans are gonna throw a fit, but those people aren't worth my time.
Hana reached around the side of the couch and grabs a hefty laptop bag, pulling out a beastly laptop. Her focus is now on that.
[KITSUNE] From what I've read, she's apparently pretty good at taking advantage of openings.
[Hana] Yeah, that's great. Problem is I'll have to give her an opening for that to work. Even if I do, I'm not concerned.
[KITSUNE] You're sure you're not taking her too lightly?
[Hana] Yep. Like I said, there's no substance to her. Doesn't matter what capacity we're talking about, she's about as deep as a puddle. Not even those ones that are fun to jump in. She's that type of puddle you jump in that barely covers the bottom of your shoes. You're just left disappointed and you STILL have to wipe your feet off!
[KITSUNE] That's an... odd comparison, regardless of how bafflingly annoyed it seems to make you.
[Hana] It makes sense.
[KITSUNE] Does it though?
[Hana] Think about it. If there's some sort of consequences to your actions, you at least want whatever you did to be worth it. Right?
[KITSUNE] I guess that makes sense.
[Hana] That's why I'm annoyed. This isn't gonna be worth it. The beat down I put on her isn't gonna have any type of value. It'll be wasted effort on my part. I'm not even gonna bother bringing up the Aokigahara. It would probably just spit her soul back out into the world anyway.
[KITSUNE] I'm beginning to feel like you just don't like Mulan-chan.
[Hana] I don't like anybody, but I also don't respect her. She's not good and I don't see her getting any better. At least your opponent has potential. Mulan is just a pretty face. She belongs in modeling, not wrestling.
[KITSUNE] Oh hey, a compliment! A backhanded one, but a compliment nonetheless!
[Hana] That's the best she's getting out of me.
There's a silence between the two as Hana clacks away on her keyboard while KITSUNE messes around on her phone. After a few moments, KITSUNE lowers her phone and looks over at Hana. It seems like a thought has crossed her mind.
[KITSUNE] You know, I just thought of something... Our matches are gonna be random.
[Hana] You mentioned that earlier.
[KITSUNE] What if you two have a selfie-off or something like that?
[Hana] ... Shit, I hope not.
[KITSUNE] Better get tweeting and posting and such.
[Hana] Meh, I'm not worried. I have two thumbs and a functional brain. I'll be fine.
[KITSUNE] A functional brain isn't necessarily an advantage when it comes to tweeting. There's a lot of stupid people out there, especially teenagers.
[Hana] Listen, it doesn't matter what kind of match it is. There's no scenario short of me having a heart attack or getting hit by a bus where I lose to this woman. I absolutely refuse to allow that to be a possibility, in this universe and other connected multiverses.
[KITSUNE] Okay... Wanna order Chinese?
[Hana] There's probably some kind of racially insensitive joke that could be made here, but I'll refrain and just say sure.
KITSUNE starts typing away on her phone while Hana is still completely engrossed with her laptop. The scene fades as KITSUNE starts to make a phone call.
[KITSUNE] Whoa, I spaced out there for a minute. My bad.
[Hana] Yeah, you do that sometimes.
