#ruth rambles

Well when we finally went into normal mode Ike totally stomped the other team as X, getting some great awakenings (Quickstrike, Cast, etc) and we absolutely obliterated the other team. But the entire time Lucina was just losing it over, to quote, “X’s himbo lines.” She kept saying how it was super funny Era was so quiet compared to her loud teammate. I was playing Asher goalie and didn’t really score, just kept the ball away from the enemies. But we all worked very well together, and she did pretty good for a relatively new player.

Lucina likes to ship characters / write fanfics (I do too but weirdly enough I haven’t done so with Omega Strikers characters) so when she found out Era liked Kai in canon and not X she was absolutely FUMING. We all had a long laugh (alongside her, dw) and she literally made a whole Google Slides presentation on why Era and X would be a better couple than Era and Kai. Ike and I sat through it, not really partial to either side but finding it incredibly amusing. Literally one of the slides was just “himbo with a goth gf is one of the best dynamics in fiction” with the line beneath it saying “screw you daddy issues.”

I’m still baffled this all happened literally just because Ike and I wanted a third teammate so we didn’t have to suffer solo-queue goalies or backwards forwards.

( I could upload an image or two of the slideshow but I’m on my phone right now and not my laptop, might add it later lmao. )

Sorry I’m doing my nightly scroll of my tiger and Kaiser gallery and I feel like I needed to make note of how genuinely disgusted she looks here
