Viviane, as always, already visualised the response from her person of interest, although so far Ayumi had not responded in any way she expected. A mere margin of error that she would correct later, just as she had corrected her last reply to avoid communicating unnecessary information to the other half. That being the case, she sent that reply, waited a few seconds, which felt like an eternity in her comfortable chair, where she turned slightly while humming, weighing up whether she should wait for Ayumi's reply or get on with her chores. After all, she had other matches to plan, scripts to finish, and also to choose the best outfit for her matches tonight at the pub. Her main job. However, as she contemplated leaving her comfortable seat, the trill of an incoming message made her stay and read it.
The confident smile she had worn vanished as she contemplated the points that made the veteran uncomfortable, increasing a rather possessive and overwhelming emotion in that small, seductive body. All because ViVi felt scolded, as if she were being taught how to do business again, and to a certain extent, Ayumi reminded her of the first time she spoke to Gael. As respectful as they was to ViVi, there was something about her eloquence that always got on her nerves. Perhaps it was as if, instead of being polite to her, they were condescending, which to a creature like her translates into ‘belittling her’, reminding her how small she still is in this business world.
Numb, she grabbed a handkerchief and bit it tenderly, cowering. Then she closed her eyes and exhaled slowly, taking her time to inflate her chest and hold her breath for about 10 seconds—
This was not under my control... She and Gael would get along well, they talk in the same dry way... or why, why, why, could it be that it bothers me that she doesn't behave like a naive girl... But I expected her to be this good at it! Why does her aura irritate me so much? God, what a skilled and direct woman! Or maybe it's because she didn't like my flirting... Wait, am I the problem?!
There was no other choice. ViVi took a cushion from her bed and buried her face in it and stifling a shout.
She couldn't treat her like just another deluded. She wanted to hunt her down. ViVi couldn't hide things from her because Tanaka would find out and ruin everything. And she wanted to hunt her down. She couldn't not respond to her now, leave and respond later, or simply not respond at all, because that would be running away, as well as being too rude. And, again, she wanted to hunt her down.
ViVi was plunged into a huge dilemma. She considered using a L.A.W manager, but the chances of L.A.W putting them in the same ring were very remote, and ViVi wasn't that patient. And for the thousandth time, the queen wanted to hunt her down in front of everyone.
She's going to have to do things differently with her if she wants a chance. She swallowed hard and, taking her time, wrote her reply.

Well, to be totally honest with you, without hiding anything. I apologise...—no, that doesn't sound right... and it's not that big a deal! And it's too much! Hm...— personally, I was trying to indicate that I didn't just want a match. If sharing the same ring with you allows me to have fun with you, like in a sparring match or something more, I would appeal for that. I am open to paying for each additional move on a case-by-case basis if necessary. I will attach some examples of the moves and mischief I am referring to, ma'am, to avoid surprising you with something you did not sign up for.
I am open to limiting, changing, or eliminating this if it is not to your liking, of course. As I said, you would be my guest, and I intend to treat you with the appropriate vehemence.
I should warn you that this series is very important to me. The reason? It is entirely under my control, and it is the first time I have handled something like this under the authority of a federation. I know it's not something that matters or affects you, but I guess it allows me to set a parameter with you. I want to inaugurate it with a woman who served as my inspiration for my character and personality; however, I want to start this point in my new career with a victory. And I am willing to compensate you for it.
I loved wrestling, of course, as much or more than you do, and I understand that buying the result can be offensive to any professional wrestler. Especially one with your reputation. But my goal is not to take it by force, nor to offend you with my money, much less treat you like a woman without a reputation to maintain and care for. But I have no ambition to make a name for myself competing for those silly championships. I prefer to make a very different career for myself. A more lucrative one.
I want to relate my image to pro-wrestling, of course, and I don't plan to fake the moves or exaggerate things to such a fetishistic and soulless extent. I loved the level of realism she brought to any ring. But I want to leave a mark on the world for having done something well, something bigger and bigger, something that involves others in making these ideas much more profitable and not just another failed project on someone's list of failed attempts.
Therefore, the results of these matches are not reflected in your official record, unless you give your permission. Therefore, I am contacting you through this medium, directly by email rather than in person, presenting all the ideas, permissions and parameters that I proposed to you and confirming with the federation. I can prepare a confidentiality agreement that benefits both sides, and another that stipulates any other wishes you may have, so that you can be my first guest and your demands are met. And of course, I would send you a copy as soon as it is ready so that you can verify that it is exactly what you want.
Sincerely,
ViVi. Valentine.
