Julianne Aves (D) vs. Esther Gates: To Preen, or Not to Preen

[HotWheels]

Humiliation Match
The first competitor to force her opponent to submit to a humiliation-style hold wins.

One of those higher-ups in LAW either really liked Esther, or they really disliked her.

Like was a possibility because they kept throwing her in matches where she would be part of an enticing show. Disliked was a possibility because those matches could leave her...well, a little short on dignity. She had gotten lucky with a couple of her matches; things had swung in such a direction that potentially embarrassing scenarios had turned out fine for her in the end. Opponent was into it, crowd was into it. All that dulled potential shame. On this night, however, shame was the name of the game. Wasn't much dodging that either she or her opponent would get humiliated in about, eh, ten minutes, depending on how stubborn the two of them were. Frankly, it was fine. Esther didn't have any misplaced pride to think herself too good for this kind of match; she just wanted a win, forever and always. The circumstances did sit somewhere between curious and a little vexing, though.

Screw it, Esther would just take it as flattery.

Spoiler

As Separate Ways broke through the uncertain arena murmur, Esther took a big gulp of air and made from guerilla to the stage. It occurred to her, as the crowd lifted, that she hadn't actually had a match in the arena yet. It was...wild seeing the people that greeted her. Her mom family really had left wrestling in good favor. Smiling as her eyes swept over the peaks of the arena, Esther waved to the crowd in appreciation, abandoning her more ritualistic entrance plans, and gave the small bundle of asters in her hand to a preteen blonde on the stage side of the ramp. This was a...drink it in moment. She didn't need to overdo it; that was one bit of wisdom she possessed from years doing pageants.

She continued her waving on the stroll down the ramp, and only once on the stairs did she flex, showing off the hard-earned muscles that gave tone to her ample curves. Despite the uneven few weeks, Esther felt...good. Confident. Ready to take on...what was her name? Julianne? Esther hadn't found a bit of current information on the woman; they had said it was her debut. She didn't know what to expect. Esther could only count on the fact that it sounded like she was new, and that also sounded like inexperience.

After more waving, her music gave way, and Esther paced as she waited to see what Julianne had in store for her. She would swear to God, if she was another Ryu trying to tell her how to wrestle properly...

[ADarlingDucky]

It was about damn time.

Really, Julianne shouldn't have let such thoughts fill her head, especially on a night that was as important to her as this one, but a part of her couldn't help but be a bit annoyed that her LAW debut, the thing she had been looking forward to for so long, had been this long in the making. Well, that wasn't necessarily the whole story. Sure, she had been given a few opportunities to debut earlier, but against smaller opponents, on smaller shows, in smaller venues. And honestly, did she deserve that? No, not at all! This was much more her speed, a debut match in a massive arena, in front of a massive crowd, and against the daughter of a well known wrestler, and in a match type that was sure to draw eyes from everywhere, places all over the world! Now THAT was fitting for her!

Julianne looked over to her side, examining herself once more in the mirror beside her, checking to make sure that she looked perfect. She had done this nearly a dozen times already, but it really couldn't hurt to do it one more time before she left! With a confident smile, the peacock would turn, and with the poise and grace of a runway model, would strut out of the locker rooms, through the backstage area, all the way up to the curtain that separated the backstage area from the arena proper, pausing only long enough to take a deep breath! And then, Julianne Aves would push through the curtain and out onto the entrance ramp, making her official LAW debut for all the world to see!

Spoiler

From the first second that she stepped out onto the entrance ramp, everything that Julianne did was as eye-catching as possible, from the little twirl that she performed before beginning her walk down to the ring, to the way she sashayed her hips as she stepped towards the squared circle! Her hands rested on her back, just above her plump rear end, and both held a gigantic fan, held up behind her to look like a peacock's tail, all a part of her theme! She was short as well, but still classified as a middleweight, and the reason why was on full display thanks to her outfit, a small and flashy two piece, that helped show off how excessively curvy Julianne happened to be!

In short order, she had made her way to the ring, before climbing up the steps onto the apron! But she didn't stop there either, quickly stepping over to the corner post and taking two short steps up the ropes, standing atop the middle rope before raising one of her legs and planting it atop the top turnbuckle! She lifted her hands up and off of her back, spreading them out wide to her sides, shaking her fans all the while as she preened for the crowd, the cameras, and even for her opponent, all before letting her fans fall away to the floor outside! Once that was done, Julianne quickly swung her leg over the ropes and climbed down into the ring, finally turning to address the lavender haired beauty across from her!

"I hope you're ready to put on a show, because I've been waiting a loooooong time for this..." Julianne called out to the woman across from her, eager to get her debut underway!

[HotWheels]

A couple of seconds passed with Esther actually believing a peacock had walked out onto stage and that her opponent had the strangest mascot she had ever seen. She looked on in utter disbelief, squinting and trying to figure out the whys and hows, but about the time she started questioning if peacocks could stand so tall, she realized she looked at a woman dressed like a peacock, not the actual creature. "Good to know you're not going crazy, Esther," she muttered to herself under her breath. Might need to get her eyes checked, though.

Just because she wasn't watching an actual peacock approach the ring didn't mean that the show didn't enrapture the southerner. She couldn't make out where the costume ended and the woman began at first, but while she certainly didn't look at the genuine article, the woman had all the over-the-top theater of the crazy little birds themselves. Leaning her elbows on the ropes, she couldn't take her eyes off of Julianne, half-forgetting to do her stretches while she watched. And her eyes could only grow bigger once Julianne drew closer, giving the lavender beauty her first good look at the woman sans the flying feathers.

"Holy wow."

Curves. Straps. The mask and makeup. Esther had to chew on her tongue to stop it from licking her lips seemingly under its own will. The buff beauty couldn't remember the last time she had seen someone in an outfit that did more to flaunt her figure. And there was a lot flaunted. And it was a lot of figure. Esther had never believed a whole peacock getup would be the sort of thing that would attract her, but as Julianne walked the ring with her, she figured that if the woman in the middle of all the feathers looked and dressed like that, that made it sound better than yeah I have a thing for ladies dressed like a peacock.

Shit, she should prep. Letting Julianne finish the show after taking one more glance at her, the middleweight stretched her arms and started stacking her legs to get the joints loose when she heard what had to be Julianne speaking to her. She popped up, trying to do a decent job of making herself look enticing, too, with hands on her hips and a puff of her chest. Sounded friendly enough. Esther grinned at her. "You bet! You been sewing that thing the whole time?" She gestured at the outfit. "Looks good."

[ADarlingDucky]

Every single second of Julianne's entrance had been carefully thought over, multiple different times before being settled on, and practiced an even greater number of times, until it was a finely practiced routine! All of it served her incredibly well when she finally did the real thing, stepping down the entrance ramp, hips swaying and fans shaking, all the way up until she climbed the ropes and preened proudly atop them, before her fans were tossed aside and she'd climb down into the squared circle! And now that she had turned all the eyes in the stadium to her, she would turn and greet her opponent, the women who'd be aiding her in making her grand debut into LAW one for the history books!

Julianne took a moment to look Esther up and down, the lavender haired beauty helping her out by walking towards her and standing square, hands on her hips and her chest puffed out proudly! She was pretty, very pretty, and she possessed quite a figure on her, one that most certainly caught the eyes of fans! Of course, Julianne was the exact opposite of a modest lady, striving to be seen and heard no matter what she did, so she couldn't help but subconsciously compare Esther's outfit and physique to her own! Esther was indeed curvy and pretty, but Julianne felt as though she was flashier in her outfit choice, and showier with her curves, and so any threat that Esther posed to her spotlight was quickly dismissed! And as such, Julianne was happy to answer her query about her outfit!

"Oh this? Ah, I wish I could say I made it! But no, I simply gave a lot of painstakingly detailed descriptions, and went through about 50 different versions before it was right! Had to be perfect after all, you know?" Julianne said with a smile, showing off perhaps a bit of just how important it was that she be the center of attention as she did so! But, the outfit was only part of it! She had to be flashy in the ring, and that could only start when her and Esther were ready to go!

"Honestly, that's neither here nor there! But don't worry! If you like, I can give you a much closer look at my outfit..." Julianne said, a quick twirl to show off to Esther and the crowd! It was clear what her words meant, that Esther's closer look would come during the match, and Julianne would show that she was ready to begin as she stepped to the center of the ring, a nod to the official leaving just Esther to signal as well, and things would be off to the races!

[HotWheels]

She called her outfit perfect, and a wistful Esther, unable to stop her eyes from trailing down the woman's figure again (though she tried to be...sort of subtle?), had to agree. "Yeah... I think that hits pretty close to the mark. Good taste." Sometimes, the southerner wished she had made different choices with her own outfit. Hers she had assembled in honor of her mom's, since she wanted to keep on representing the family name as the latest Gates with a famed wrestling career, but no one would have ever called her mom the most expressive person ever. Esther wanted to...let loose with some of her expression. Carve her own path. Dress in a really tight and revealing peacock suit. Or something similar. But she had a responsibility.

She blinked. Okay, maybe not the time to wish and daydream. Julianne spoke to her again, and while Esther missed the first few words, she caught up with her in time to hear...words that, uh...got the juices flowing. Because how could anything else happen when a woman dressed in that outfit passed her those words in that tone of voice. Why did her brain and body have to do these things? Why did Julianne happen to know the exact button to push? She thought she had been subtle, thought a woman being entirely unsubtle as she stood there shifting her legs and chewing her lower lip while Julianne walked away.

"I'll give you a few of those too, eh?" she called after her, trying to save face a bit. Nope, Esther, don't do it, she reminded herself. After some bumps here and there, a win tonight would go a long way to bettering her stance, especially if she left a humiliated woman in her wake. With a clap of her hands and a nod to the ref, Esther sorted her brain out as quickly as she could to do just that; as the bell rang, the beautiful Aster, ever an aggressor, closed the distance with her shorter opponent to seek a lock-up. Humiliation stipulations didn't mean she wouldn't start with some good ol' southern wrasslin.

[ADarlingDucky]

Esther's admiration of her outfit was welcome indeed, as Julianne was sure that the audience was quite impressed with her look, but to know that she also had her opponent staring at her was even more of a boost to her confidence, which was sky high! And so as she gave Esther a little teasing remark, she cast a quick look over her shoulder towards Esther, all too pleased to see the purple haired beauty biting her lip and rubbing her thighs together, wrapped around Julianne's finger all before the match started! Oh yeah, this was definitely going to be fun. And not even Esther's teasing remark about nabbing Julianne's spotlight with some up up close and personal teasing of her own would sour her mood!

And once the match was started by the loud ringing of the bell permeating throughout the arena, Julianne and Esther would be off to the races, with the taller woman stepping forwards to the center of the ring, holding up her hands! Julianne approached as well, but as she drew close to Esther, she took a moment to weigh her options, looking her up and down! In a test of strength, Esther was most definitely at an advantage, as she was larger and heavier, so Julianne wasn't quite keen to go that route! That meant it was time to get a little creative with how to kick things off!

"Alright... now I hope you won't hold this against me, but..." Julianne trailed off, reaching towards Esther's hands as if to lock up as well... before reaching past, snagging Esther's wrists! If she got a firm hold on them, Julianne would make good use of that grip, when she attempted to leap up suddenly and wrap her legs around Esther's waist, suddenly forcing her foe to carry her weight as she coiled her thick thighs around her!

"Lock-ups aren't really my thing, so I'd much rather start with this instead!" Julianne said with a wink, gripping her foe's wrists and quickly cinching her thighs down around Esther's waist to hold onto her, looking to start with something surprising that forced her foe to adapt, and perhaps, find herself crushed early on if she wasn't quick to stop it!

[HotWheels]

The southerner had her advantages in this match, she knew. Height always helped, and whatever she thought about how good Julianne's figure looked in her two-piece getup, Esther's own form packed a handful more bodybuilding muscles. The strategy seemed to be to wind the smaller woman with some grappling, apply a little overbearing strength here and there, and leave he pretty peacock set up to get placed on display for the crowd. As long as Esther avoided becoming an easy target on the ground and... didn't get too close of a look so she could keep her head, she liked her chances. Damn that last one for being a big if.

She thought her opponent might buy right into the plan. Esther, rocking back and forth on her heels, clapped her hands again and shifted forward to meet Julianne for what seemed like a guarantee of a lock-up with the way the smaller woman approached. There was some consternation in the way the pretty peacock looked her over, she could see, but as long as she got close enough, Esther would have her. That was a damn tempting proposition in and of itself.

With her longer reach, Esther was already looking to bore down on Julianne once they were close enough, before she could fully grasp what the other middleweight half-said. Her arms snapped down in hopes that she would be able to give Julianne a good toss onto her back with the initial push. It would be a nice confidence booster, and what girl having taken her lumps during her first couple of months on the job didn't want a good confidence boo-

Julianne was quicker. Esther's eyes flew wide when the woman nimbly caught her by the wrists, throwing off the Aster's plans and momentum entirely. "Shit!", she hissed, with a stumble forward. No one would ever call the former farmer graceful, since she had some clumsy feet when she wanted to, but why did she have to open looking like a klutz!?

However, it was worse than just a stumble. Her lurch forward worked right into Julianne's hands, and before Esther could realize what was happening, she felt bare skin along her midriff, followed by enough pressure to give her a start. Esther's stumble turned into a full-on trip as she landed on one knee with a yelp, barely managing to hold her and Julianne's combined weight up without falling forward. Already, muscles were dimpling her skin as she tried to avoid the exact things he had known would end bad for her: letting Julianne take her to the mat.

"Okay, didn't...expect that...", she conceded, trying to withstand the squeeze and stand at the same time. Damned thick legs.

[ADarlingDucky]

Leaping into your opponent's grasp and relying on them to hold your weight might have been a dangerous proposition, but Julianne needed something flashy to start off with, as a regular lockup would just be no good, not to mention what an advantage it'd give Esther! And so instead, she grasped her foe's wrists firmly before leaping up and wrapping her legs around Esther's waist, the far more dangerous part of her plan, but one that let her lock in a tight squeeze already! Fortunately for her, Esther didn't end up falling forwards to the mat, which no doubt would have been a rough landing for both of them, but managed to catch herself as she was forced down to a knee, all Julianne's thighs coiling around her foe's curvy waist to really cinch in her bodyscissor during this!

Honestly, she was happy that Esther stayed up! It would look a bit more impressive if she was crushing a still standing Esther, so she held on tight and gave Esther a moment to catch her breath and figure out her new situation, with the peacock flashing her a wink as she did so! Once Esther managed to catch her breath, Julianne would quickly pull herself a bit more upright, bringing her face closer and closer to her lavender haired foe's own pretty features as she looked for some nice quality time with her!

"I have to extend my thanks to you... you're honestly the perfect person to have my debut against, I am so happy to have someone that allows me to really shine!" Julianne said, smiling warmly while still crushing Esther's midsection, two sharp contrasts that likely served to distract her foe! But Julianne did definitely mean it, and she also wanted to make sure that her foe knew how grateful she was, and what better way to do that than to give her a reward! ...At least, that was how Julianne viewed what she did next!

"Here, why don't you come here and enjoy yourself!" Julianne teased, before shifting her hands from Esther's wrists to her head, wrapping her arms around the larger woman's head instead! And if not stopped, she'd lean forwards and straighten her back out, as she looked to pull herself in close and press her hefty chest to Esther's face, pulling her opponent into her cleavage to lock in a breast smother in addition to her bodyscissor!

[HotWheels]

This situation would have been fun in a lot of places. Not so in the middle of a wrestling ring while the thighs around her waist grinding into her sides. With a constant groan roiling from her throat while she relied on her well-earned, sculpted figure to keep her and her opponent upright, Esther tried hard to shake her arms free of Julianne's grip, but with her attention split three different ways and the woman stronger than she looked, she could never quite sling either one free. Esther looked down at the exchange between thick, pale legs and her own muscular-but-struggling midriff, all too impressed with the situation. She was kind of...stuck, not wanting to go down but in bad enough shape in her current predicament.

As Julianne leaned in, Esther had turned to a fanged wince. That wince turned into a partial scowl while the woman praised her for helping her shine, but even the struggling and ensnared southerner had to admit that this was pretty clever. She just didn't have to gloat about it. "Don't get used to it...", Esther strained out, again trying to snatch her hands away so the pretty peacock would fall but nearly losing her balance when she did. "And I've hauled around a lot...heavier than you before...for a lot longer..."

In order to prove her point, the powerful farm girl started to will her legs to action and slowly rise back onto both feet so she could try and haul Julianne to a turnbuckle. Her hands raised to try and balance out the way Julianne was leaning; as they did, she almost didn't catch what Julianne said. But the peacock quickly got a hold on the back of her head, freeing the Aster's hands. "There we go!", she said in triumph, and her hands shifted to shove at Julianne's stomach to throw her off-

Before she could, Julianne pulled forward on her head, and her vision got filled with a sea of cleavage. "No, stop- mmmmm!" Cleavage that she would meet before she could properly get her cry out.

Properly shocked by the sudden smother, the Aster collapsed right back onto her knees, having to use both hands to have a chance to stay partially upright.

[ADarlingDucky]

Hopping up onto Esther's curvy frame, Julianne was delighted when her foe remained upright, managing to carry her even despite the crushing bodyscissor that the peacock immediately applied, leaving Esther to gasp and groan as she worked her way back up to her feet! Julianne clung along for the ride, and once Esther was back up, she seemed confident enough that she could carry herself and Julianne as well, groaning out a cute statement about being able to carry much heavier! That was good for Julianne of course, she didn't want to end up on the mat, the audience got a much better view of what was going on when the two were upright, and Julianne knew they'd really enjoy what came next!

That being the demure middleweight changing her grip on Esther's wrists, abandoning it entirely as she slipped her arms up and around her opponent's head, getting a nice hug on her cranium, one that let Julianne lean forwards and pull Esther's pretty features right into her cleavage! Almost immediately, the position that Esther worked herself back up to would crumble, and she would once more lean forwards and land on her knees, this time unable to even see with her face buried between Julianne's boobs! The crowd loved a good smother, and Julianne was more than happy to give them exactly what they were looking for, even finding some time to chide her opponent for nearly toppling to the mat yet again!

"Woah! Easy there, you almost dropped me. I thought you just said you had carried heavier things for much longer? Don't tell me that this is too much... I'm even being so nice, because let's face it, even if you can't see, I guarantee that you've got the best view in the whole arena!" Julianne teased, unable to help the wide smile that spread across her face as the audience ate it up, the peacock even getting cheeky enough to wiggle her shoulders, shaking her large breasts in Esther's face, forcing her foe to motorboat them!

If Esther wanted to get out of this predicament, she'd need to find a way to do it fast, because with a quick strain of her muscles, Julianne would hug a little harder on her head, squeeze a little harder on her waist, all to better latch on and keep Esther nice and in the dark, right where Julianne could control her!
