NEEEEERD - Nico Cardona vs Shimmerlace Snuggleblossom

[Malkavia]

Standard Match (Win by KO, submission or pinfall)
Stakes: POW

“You want to change your entrance music? From...what’s on the schedule?”
“Not, like, permanently. But like, a special match needs a special setter-offer, aye?”
“It’s a daytime TV Spot. Ma’am, there are licensing issues...”

Trust her, LAW had the rights, and aye, a daytime spot it was, but focus. This was Shimmer’s match against Nico “Prepare Miss Snugglebottoms, it’s Whacking Day” Cardona. Snugglebottoms! Nico's trash-talking Tweet had come at the end of a rotten day—

(actively repressed)

(At the drugstore of all places, Shimmer'd finally been cornered by Madeleine. “If you keep losing, and they don’t drop you, they’re going to start booking you as an entertaining loser. There's no bouncing back from that, Charlotte.” The vampire wanted to "help.")

—but the challenge left Shimmer practically salivating. Shimmer had spent the next two days grinning at everyone and everything. She smirked over dinner, beamed in the gym, and positively wagged her tail on the way to the arena. Shimmer had a match with a cute Spanish nerd who responded to her Tweets and was actually, genuinely funny, who called her Snugglebottoms.

“Look,” the Summer Sapling said to Greg the Sound Guy, “just play the bit, and you can use my parking space for a month.” Even 3-0 loser Lionesses got better parking than the sound tech. “And if any shit comes of it, I’ll take the dive, aye? However you want to spin it...I switched it without you knowing...whatever. Just play the song.”

When the match started, Shimmerlace walked down the ramp in a costume utterly alien to her usual aesthetic. Her face was stoic as a tombstone. Her back was arch, and in her hands she carried an instrument of justice: a thick, black baton. Over her wild costume of the fey court, she wore a formless brown robe and a black tie. The Teatime Bunny skipped, solemn as a druid on May Day, to the celebratory, magnificent beat of her new entrance:

Oh whacking day, oh whacking day!
Our hallowed saints, skull cracking day!
We’ll break their backs, gouge out their eyes!
Their evil hearts we’ll pulverize!
Oh whacking day, oh whacking day!
May God bestow his grace on thee!

Nico stood backstage and hopped up and down, her football that she would shoot into the crowd between her ankles as the always energetic catalonian cutie watched the entrance of her opponent for this evening...Shimmerface Snugglebottom...she did'nt knew what to expect, but she hoped that Shimmer was as nice as she had been when they had their little twitterbattle. Nico always loved to make new friends and the pinqette seemed nice enough. Nico waited looking at screen that was situated in one of the hallways and if she had hoped to like her opponent for this evening, she knew she loved her now as suddenly all the lights turned low and Shimmer would step hoot, wearing a monks hood while the "Anthem of Whacking Day" was playing. "Deu Meu...how cool!", Nico said and followed every second of the entrance.

Now the young european was pumped! Shimmer seemed to have as much humor as she had but now she had to hurry to get something arranged. Her usual intro would'nt do. For this she had to go all out and so the energetic blonde charged to the technicians room. When Shimmer ended her entrance, showing her face to the crowd it only needed a few seconds as the lights in the arena turned into a sensual red and a song started to play that was located in the soul genre. Barry Whites "Can't get enough of your love", was playing over the big speakers, but as it was the Simpsons version there was a big warning for Shimmer who obviously wanted to whack some innocent snakes!

"Don't bother the snakes...leave all the snakes...alone..."

And with the song taking on tempo the Blonde came out the titantron eagerly waving her hand to the crowd as she came down the ramp, doing her ususal football tricks while the admittedly, very sexy song accompined her. When reaching the ring she put the ball between her ankles again and jumped up to the side of the ring, grinning at Shimmer and used the topropes to swing over them into the ring! Nico grinned and looked around, waved to the cheering crowd and then took her ball, which she had balanced on her left leg,struck it upwards and then slammed it into the crowd with all the power of her famous right leg! She was'nt called the Goleador for nothing!

When her signed ball got into the possession of a lucky crowd member, she turned around to Shimmer and excitedly jumped into her arms,hugging her. "Hola! Em dic Nico Cardona! So nice to finally meet you, Shimmerface!", she smiled and embraced her tight. "I hope we will have much fun, you already seem like someone can take a joke or two, huh?", the blonde ball of energy said and let go of Shimmer to look her in the eyes. "Let's have a good match and don't be upset if it's your snugglebottom that gets whacked!"

[Malkavia]

Like a gladiatrix, your girl came to the ring prepared and eagle-eyed, for this was a space where many an enemy lies in wait, building in their hearts strange cunning and mischief. But what the Feychild had not anticipated was a hug. A nerdy hug. Such a thought rang peculiar in the head...nerdy hug...but such was also the undeniable reality. A Nico-style hug was an embrace exploding with unchecked excitement, clinging but not desperate, buzzing with the same energy as the roaring fans and the Nico, Goleador grin—a grin so unselfconsciously joyful Shimmer found herself, woozily, through a thick and prickly blush, grinning back.

Aye, the Goleador caught Shimmer off guard, and for a beat there, she wobbled on her heels. But then the Goleador dropped back down to earth and started running her mouth.

"Let's have a good match and don't be upset if it's your snugglebottom that gets whacked!"

Golden words, sunlight words, delightful, childhood play words. The kind of words a version of Shimmerlace, perhaps, might have uttered. But the problem with sunlight is a match can only have so much of it before it grows blinding; the audience craves a touch of shadow to provide definition and depth.

”Oh, let’s have a good match—aye, sure! Says the wee nerd who can’t even string my name together proper.” Shimmerlace slipped off her robe, tossing it over the ropes, baring down to the pinks and purples of her in-ring outfit. Then she let her arms settle over the ropes. ”Where I fly in from, we got a scale for measuring falsity o’ the heart—and you miss? Phew! Our wee bullshit detector would fly to pieces you’d get it so worked up. No no no.”

The Seelie Scout shook a finger. How many eyes were on her now—whether in the stands or the many electronic screens? It was hard to fathom, but in the end it didn’t matter for she could imagine the eyes and let that thought pump up her wicked grin. ”No, I got a read on you, goalie geek. Your little 'have a good match?' False as a four euro note. Your supposed devotion to 'being a real fan?' Fake. Memes. Shallow quotes. Twitterborne Clout chasing. You ain't got a real speck o' nerdy magic in you—not a pebble of authentic devotion to your media, your Simpsons, your Star Trek, your horror! Which is why I'm here to give your arse a richly deserved kickin', aye, but not just as as a wrestler, but as a fuckin' nerd and fan! Prepare to be unmasked, ya bleedin' poser!”

[RedShinigami]

Nico, as always, hoppes up and down like a Kangaroo, unable to contain her energy, ready to kick some serious butt! Shimmer seemed ok enough, she just gave a custommade Simpsons entrance so that gave her a big plus in the Blondes book whose goods jiggled up and down while jumping in her extra skimpy leotard. Of course this had not been something she had insisted on! She was a good catholic girl after all!

But when Shimmer started to talk, Nicos spirits as her smile started to sink. Lower, lower until both hit an alltime low when the pinquette was finished. Nico stood there and brought up her hands to her chest, her head faced the ground, her body trembling. The crowd started to mumble and the ref approached her. "Uh.. Miss Cardona are you..."

Suddenly the howl of a hurt animal echoed through the arena as Nicos head shot up, revealing the tears in her big, emerald eyes. "Bohohoooooooooo!", she wimmered and rubbed her crying eyes. The crowd as the referee were stunned. "That...that was so meeean... Why are you so mean to me Shiiiiiimm? I have'nt done anythin...sniff...anything wrong and you are so meeeeeaaaan, boohoooooo...", the Catalonian howled and looked away from Shimmer. "That was uncalled for, I just wanted us to have fun..."

Nico turned away from Shimmer and threw her hands to her face, still crying as the crowd slowly started to boo and scream at shimmer for being so cruel to their beloved sunny wrestler.
" You hate meheheheee... Why are you hating meeee... ", the sensible, friendly Marshmallow cried muffled between her hands.

[Malkavia]

As Shimmerlace concluded her speech, the pink-bedecked wrestler smirked. From the day Snugglebottom had slid into her inbox, Shimmerlace had anticipated this battle—the bloody back and forth, two warriors defending with fire and steel their nerdy honor! Now she’d thrown down the gauntlet, and—

”Bohohoooooooooo!”

The Pink Pixie blinked. Though the grin never faltered, she did raise her pinkie up to clean out her ear.

Why are you so mean to me Shiiiiiimm?

Well.This response was...altogether disproportionate. Shimmerlace hadn’t meant—

…Mmm, actually, she had very much meant to wound...

No. No, not to wound. To threaten. To provoke. To give their match an exciting, iron-tinged scent of blood—

“Booooooo!”

For a moment, the Pixie’s attention flitted back to the seats. Now that—that was new. From those impressionable sods, Shimmer had in the past drawn her share of (muted) cheers and (more enthusiastic) laughter...But boos? To look out to the stands and see some of the scattered fans leaning over the rails, hands cupped over their lips, bellowing—well that painted a picture. Here was she, Gloaming Fiend of the Night Mother’s Fungal domain, whose venomous lips could slice open the fellas in the seats!

“you are so meeeeeaaaan, boohoooooo..."

“Snrk...”

As she stood up from her corner and trotted across the ring to Nico, Shimmerlace’s eyes sparkled, blue and bright and cheerful. The purple cloth of her half-capes billowing up behind her, hands folded behind her back, she came blowing up on Nico until their faces were on the verge of touching. And there for a beat she stood. Staring. Contemplating remorse? Drinking in the tears? Working arithmetic?

“Hey. Ya dumb nerd...” The Pixie raised a finger. Booooop. She pressed it into the Goleador’s nose. “Gotcha.”

[RedShinigami]

Nico stood there, crying her eyes out after the tirade she had to get through, delivered by Shimmer. The Blonde cutie in her revealing red and blue leotard stood there and whimpered while accusing the Irish Woman of being rude and mean to her.

She sobbed and heard her opponent coming closer, but Nico did'nt care, for her, this was a horrible start into this match and she hardly knew if she ever could stomach it. Then she heard her close, her body tensing on its own, awaiting an attack that never came but instead she got called out again.

"Huh?", Nico asked, wiped her arm over her eyes and looked at the cute pinquette. She had the opportunity to see Shimmer closer now and she was quite the looker. Nico blushed a little and when the Irishwoman raised her arm she booped Nico on the nose.

The whole crowd remained silent, no one knowing what to say about the situation. It almost seemed like a bad comedy skit as both women stood in the ring, overdramatically acting like William Shatner on acid.

Nico sniffed and then looked at Shimmer and before you could say "Jebediah Springfield", a grin swept over the Catalonians face, grabbing Shimmers wrist, pulling her in and then pressing her lips onto her fellow europeans.

The crowd awakened again and cheered as the bell rang and Nico then grinned as both parted, Shimmer now had to be aware of the play she was unwillingly had been part off.

"You are cute, senorita. Let's have a good match!", Nico grinned and the tears were already all but dried when she turned the Pinquette aroundy bringing her into an abdominal stretchy starting the Lioness Match of the evening off with amateur acting and flirting.

[Malkavia]

“I should’ve fuckin’ known!” Shimmer cackled, but her ribs felt the pinch as the Goleador bent her back and levered her arm skyward, all while giving herself an open window at Shimmer’s side. Aye, if Shimmer didn't haul ass, her ribs were about to feel a lot worse. Her face burned pink as she stumbled under hyperextension and the flush of the Goleador's game. “As if you’d have anything but crocodile tears!”

A trick, a lie, a bamboozle, a card that starts out queen of clubs and then reveals itself, POOF, a joker shrouded in smoke—that’s all fine and fun. Aye, but some lines when crossed demand a touch of faerie flame, sweet senorita.

Shimmerlace bent her knees. Squatted. Tried to pull the Goleador low. Then, when her thighs would ripple with stored energy, she’d press it all up—a jump. The idea would be to send the two of them, rosy fairy over blonde goalie, balance shot to fuck, tumbling tea over kettle over ass.

And from there!

Fuck, Shimmer hadn’t thought from there. She just saw the fuckin tumble and leapt.

[RedShinigami]

"Siii you should have, ShimShim, but dont worry, I am not biting. Not hard that is.", the cheeky Catalonian grinned and placed a small peck on the Pinquettes neck before stretching her even more. But of course the match had just started and it would take a lot more to get her opponent down but for starters this worked, their bodies close, Nico feeling Shimmers warm skin on hers.

But of course the Irish Lass did'nt intend to go down without a fight and so with a few swift movements, she managed to get both of them falling. Was there a plan behind it? Hardly, but Nico did'nt care. What counted was that she landed on top of Shim and was ready to use that position to her advantage as she wrapped one arm around the Pinquettes neck and her legs snaked around midsection.

If everything worked then she would turn around to finalize the rear naked choke but one would wonder, why was one of her arms free? If Shimmer was unable to do something about it then she would know in a few seconds...

[Malkavia]

The plan: Bump Nico just over her center of gravity, unsettle the balance, and land larger pinkette on — SPLAT — flailing smaller blonde.

But…Effortless as a bird catching a breeze, Nico threw your girl into her own jump, slamming stomach against mat. Across the whole tableau, the only paint stroke less than pure elegance was the PLAP Shimmer’s ribs made against the ground and the "FUCK" she called out.

”Aren’t we a fuckin’ affectionate wee tart…GECK!”

Contrary to the irritated buzz that had erupted from neck to ear, Nico’s kiss on the neck had been more than mere flex. It kept the Pixie’s mind seconds behind the action, until the arm round her throat yanked her back to present. Mouth aquirk, Shimmer’s eyes narrowed. Hands shot to throat while every nerve in Shimmer’s body warned to keep her neck open, but—hush. Your girl knew enough not to struggle while oxygen was a question. Instead, she narrowed on one target: Slip fingers under the arm. Make a space for blood and air.

[RedShinigami]

Nico just chuckled and gave her new friend a peck on the cheek while still having her arm wrapped tightly around her. "Only to those I really like ShimShim.", she grinned and with glee in her eyes she noticed that the irish lass was not about to do something about her free arm who finally got into action too.

Nico cupped one of the pinquettes breasts and started to massage it in her hand, squeezing and pulling it while Shimmer still tried to pry her other arm off of her. Nico secured her opponent with both legs and the the groping commence, softly purring into Shimmers ears while she did so.

"Hmmm so nice and softy Senorita Snugglebottoms... Makes me wonder how they feel without clothes...", she grinned and pressed her cheek against the irishwomans face.
"That is so much fun!"
