VOICE | aroo ready?

[workingsnug]

Gooooood evening -- [there's a slightly muffled exchange, as though he's holding his hand over the microphone. it sounds a little like "Hey! Hey, buddy! What's this place called again?" and then:] Heeeeeropa!

I've got just one question for ya, Heropa. And it is... Are. You. Ready?

[there's a deep inhale, before he bellows. this post is not recommended for users of headphones.] I SAID! ARE! YOU! READY!

Because. The Wulf has arrived! That's right. It's a surprise engagement, and I'm gonna make sure it's one that you never forget!

The mighty champion, the hero of New Meridian, the one and only! Beowulf! Will be taking on the first three contenders brave enough to challenge him! One night only, first come, first serve!

This kinda open call is a real one in a lifetime opportunity, so don't let it pass you by!

[he includes his current location; it's not even really far from the landing site, maybe a few blocks away from the provided housing. does he mean to come and spar with him? is he a rampaging madman that needs to be stopped? is he just an idiot? bets are now officially open!]

I've never seen somebody using the network like a dating app, but for fights instead of f -- well, not fights.

[workingsnug]

Oh, there's an app for that! But The Wulf doesn't need it to find a fight! Wherever there's an exciting match, that's where you know you'll find Beowulf!

[wow. even without the stage name (?), this guy reminds him so much of


well everyone he knows from back home, basically]

Sweet. Is that your tagline?

voice;

[workingsnug]

[mumbling to himself, as though to try and remember something only vaguely familiar...] Tagline... Tagline. Tagline?

[and suddenly:] Nope! That's just a fact. That's a Beowulf fact for you.

[lasersounds]

Never heard of you.

[Because Lance is nothing, if not a shit-stirrer.]

[workingsnug]

What! You never heard of [he says the following ALMOST exactly the same way he did in his initial post. there's two or maybe three syllables that he says differently.] the one and only, Beowulf? [when he continues, it's much more normal person voice.] Geeze, kids these days.

[lasersounds]

Nope, is there a reason I should have? I mean...look around dude, the place is full of heroes and new ones arrive every day.

[workingsnug]

Oh, sweet! Sounds like we're finally getting some deserved recognition!

( when has clarisse ever turned down a fight tbh )

You should be ready to get your ass handed to you.

voice;

[workingsnug]

I'm ready for anything! You name it, and Beowulf can, and will, take it on in the ring!

No matter what, Beowulf will tackle it! Theeee lightweight champ! The cruiserweight champ! Gigan warriors, in their prime! His own self! The crushing boredom of loneliness! The heavyweight champ! Wince McMayhem himself! Beowulf can fight it aaaaaaaaaall!!

voice;

[areou]

Ooookay, protip: Beowulf should stop referring to himself in third person. You know no one is gonna take you seriously like that, right?

( she's trying to be helpful, for once. sort of. )

I mean, I'll still kick your ass, because a fight's a fight, but don't say I didn't tell you so if you get more laughs than challenges.

voice;

[workingsnug]

Protip! Beowulf doesn't take protips unless they're real tips from real pros. So unless you're a veteran of the promotion, I don't really gotta listen to you.

[a short pause, before:] I mean, Beowulf doesn't! [this isn't even really a constant part of his gimmick, but now she's made him petulant.]

[possibly the best possible outcome? for anyone to come through the porter?]

Yes! Yes, where you at? I'll throw down!

[he also attaches a photo, presumably to indicate his exact location:]

voice on his end toooo ACTION

[h2no]

[he is saving this. forever.]

Good thing I live nearby!!

[archie shows up momentarily.

on the back a of a giant bat.

if you're gonna do something this stupid, you gotta do it with style.

crobat lands heavily and archie hops off the back - he's pretty short, actually? anyway, he hops of crobat, returns the pokémon (who would certainly be exasperated to know its trainer is about to fight) and raises a hand in a cheery greeting to... literally the only person in the street who could be beowulf.]

Yo!

action » open log if you want!!

[workingsnug]

[geeze, HOW nearby? beowulf barely had time to shut his phone (?) off. and now he's staring at a giant bat vanish into nothingness in the palm of this guy who's got some kinda nautical theme going on. or maybe some kind of like, beach goth? bats are a pretty good indicator of gothness. either way, beowulf stops posing and yelling, and shifts to stretching instead.]

Haha! The first contender! Not much of an audience, but hey! A true pro can work under any situation.

[here if you wanna write out some slaps!]

[ This answer comes late at night, after the whole age plot snafu has been resolved. ]

HELL YEAH, I'M IN! LET'S THROWDOWN!

permavid;

[workingsnug]

Yes! Hell yes! Come at me, bro! Just hurry up about it, 'cause that first come first serve thing is still... A thing! Yeah!

[burlyboy]

Okay, but that's not fair! I live in Maurtia Falls! It's gonna take me longer to get to you than some of the others and I guarantee you I'd be able to give you one of the better fights you're gonna get. Not saying I'm not gonna hurry, but don't make me go all that way to turn down a good fight.

[imaphantomthief]

Ok but what do you do? Is this MMA or something?

[halloflamer]

[After watching Archie giddily Fly off on Crobat for this ...whatever this is.]

Hey guy, are you gonna wreck Archie?

Cuz I wanna watch.

voice;

[workingsnug]

[let's pretend that this is actually sent between beowulf's announcement and archie's arrival. so, he has no idea what this guy is talking about, except that] Of course I am! The Wulf doesn't lose any more than he backs down, which is never!

And an audience is always welcome.

Re: voice;

[halloflamer]

Hah! Great, I like a Gutsy competitive guy like you!!

How about you leave your comm on while you whup 'im? Just turn it to video and lean it against a tree or something. I miss televised matches like that!

--What'd you say you were the Champion of, again?
