Alix Jacques
Reine Roquefeuil
Lucielle Costa
"Olá pessoal! This is Lucielle Costa here with the gothic renaissance woman Alix Jacques and "The Purple Widow", Reine Roquefeuil. Now, Alix, you stated that you requested this time because you wanted to announce your intention to branch out from Hentai wrestling to participate in other forms of competition here in LAW. And you have been branching out quite a bit as it is: First taking on trainees and now as the showrunner to the smash hit 'LAW: After Dark'. Don't you think you may be taking on too much, too fast?"
"A very solid question, Lucielle. It's actually because of my newfound responsibilities -- to my trainees in particular -- that I'm going to be expanding my horizons as a wrestler. As an athlete. When you have people looking to you for guidance, you have to make sure that you're in tip-top shape every step of the way to make sure that they're provided the best example. And that's why I'm so thankful for my bestie here!" Alix showed her appreciation with a warm, tight embrace that wasn't reciprocated on Reine's end. She stood there with her arms crossed, groaning with what the curly-haired goth knew was feigned annoyance, her purple eyes rolled to the side, away from the other two women.
The blonde was smiling on the inside. Really, she was. But she had a part to play, and a reputation to keep.
"She's done so much to help me train! I can't thank you enough, Reine."
"You can start by letting me go." Alix obliged her, her sunny smile not having diminished the slightest bit. "Thank you."
Lucielle couldn't hold back a chuckle at the "Sweetheart and Tsundere" dynamic they had going on. "You two are adorable."
Reine Roquefeuil the person didn't mind the comment, but the Purple Widow did. And a hard scowl made it impossible to miss. "Don't you have more questions, Lucielle?"
Scratch that. Alix was adorable. Reine? Not so much.
Alix's expression dimmed. "Reine, s'il vous plaît, ne soyez pas impoli."
Reine rolled her eyes. "We're here to field questions, not comments."
Alix regarded Lucielle with an apologetic smile. A front, it may be, but she still wanted their manners minded. "Don't mind her, sweetie."
"Right." She continued on, as smooth as butter. If Reine got too bitchy, she could just put on the mask and give her a little something in the ring later. "Can you tell the fans what they can expect to see from you in the ring, moving forward?"
"Well, I don't wanna give my future opponents too much of a heads up, but what I will say is that this here gal is a lot tougher than she looks! I'm in the best shape of my life, and I'm getting better every day! And I'm ready to give it everything I've got!" Alix punctuated her statement with a raised fist for the camera.
"These are not the empty promises of some doe-eyed lamb about to walk into the slaughter. Alix and I have been training together long before she walked through LAW's doors, and when I heard that she was signed, we kicked it into overdrive. Countless hours were devoted to making this woman's life Hell to prepare her for what she's about to face."
Alix bristled at the memories. "She's not kidding."
"And you've seen the results." Reine spoke into the camera. To the fans. She raised four fingers. "Four matches. Four victories. A mere preview of the coming domination."
Alix wanted to make some suggestive remark about all the dominating she'd do, but she felt a speech coming on, so she stood silent, making faces like she was the baddest woman alive while Reine cooked. Cooked, and did her damnedest not to corpse. The juxtaposition of the serious effort that she was putting into this promo and Alix's silliness was probably going to make the latter look ridiculous, but that would only work to her benefit.
Underestimate her at your own peril.
And so Reine continued. "This woman has shed years' worth of blood, sweat, and tears training for combat. And she didn't even need to use everything she's learned to get gold around her waist in the past." Alix made a gesture at her waist to punctuate the statement. "Now I have a question for you, Lucielle: What do you think's gonna happen when she lets loose?"
