Mini Fanfic #1004: Villainous Fathers (Or Lack Thereof...) (Super Smash Bros Ultimate)
4:00 p.m. at Smash Mansion's Dining Hall.....
Pichu: (Happily Presents Sephiroth his Handmade Card) Pi...chu....Pichu!~
Sephiroth: A lovely Father's Day Card made for yours truly?~
Pichu: (Happily Nodded) Pichu. (Shyly Looks Away With his Hands Behind his Back) Pi....Pichu Pichu Pi......
Sephiroth: (Opens Up the Father's Day Card Pichu Made For Him and Sees the Words "I Love You" in Eight Different Crayon Colors With a Soft Smile on his Face) Nonsense. (Picks His Adopted Son Up and Sits him on his Lap) I think the card you've made looks magnificent. (Bops on Pichu's Nose, Causing the Pokémon Himself to Giggle Ticklishly) I wish my creations would turn out nearly as good as yours in comparison.
Ganondorf: You know how to draw, Sephiroth?
Sephiroth: (Wiggle his Hand a Bit in Uncertainty) Eh.....Somewhat. My artistic skills are below average at best. (Plaves his Hand on his Chin) Perhaps I should try taking art classes someday in the future......
Hades: (Moves his Head Away From the Newspaper He's Currently Reading) I recommend you take lessons from that Yusuke kid. I heard he's taking one on one lectures on his freetime. But you might wanna try making an appointment with four eyes first before anything.
Sephiroth: Did not take Futuba as a type to care about this kind of stuff.
Hades: Neither did I. But it is somewhat helping her get close to her obvious crush. So.....(Shrugs) good for her I suppose. (Takes a Sip of Coffee Out of his "World Most Terrible Uncle" Mug)
Ridley: Hey, you guys ever think about your dads sometime? The only memory I have of mines was seeing him and ma get killed by hunters when I was hatched.
Ganondorf: (Eyes Widened a Bit in Surprise) Yikes.....Also......(Places his Hand onto his Chest Along With Everyone Else in the Table) You have our condolences.
Ridley: Thanks, but I'm good. I already gotten over it since the day i killed Samus' parents. (Smiles Brightly) Feel great about it ever since- (Suddenly Get by a Plasma Beam in the Back) 'BUZZZZZZ' AH! (Felt Paralyzed For a Second Before Turning Around) W-What the-
Samus: (Glares Intensely at The Space Pirate With Fox Standing Next to Her) Fuck. You.
Hades: (Slowly Shakes his Head at Ridley) That woman's gonna find some way to end you permanently one of these days......
Ridley: (Throws his Hands Out While Being Paralyzed) I was JUST being honest here! (Rests his Head onto the Palm of his Hand) And it happened decades ago, she could've at least try to move on from it by now! Besides, it was better for them getting axed by me than letting some pork grind bamboozled and abandoned off in the void of space like Fox's Da- 'BLABLABLABLAST' (Suddenly Gets Hit by a Fury of Blasters on the Back) AGHH! (Quickly Turns Around Towards the Culprit) FOX!
The leader of Star Fox gives Ridley the middle finger with a glare before walking away with Samus.
Hades: You are just itching to make more enemies today, aren't ya, Ridley boy?
Ridley: (Sighs Heavily While Turning Back Around to the Table) My mouth really is a blessing and a curse, isn't it?
Ganondorf: Yep. But to answer your question, I....can't really say I've ever thought about who my bil father was at the time of my birth. All I remember is waking up in the middle of a Gerudo Valley and being raised by most of the villagers there.....I also remembered ruling that said valley with an iron gauntlet, but that's neither here and there.
Sephiroth: I too don't have any memory who my father was. And every time I do try think about him, it would always lead me to that man in the red damaged cape for....some reason.
Hades: (Groans While Rolling his Eyes in Annoyance) Don't even get me started on my old man.....The self conceited bastard was crazy enough to try and eat me whole.
Ganondorf/Ridley/Pichu: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock) He WHAT!?/Pi!?
Sephiroth: (Eyes Widened a Bit as Well) You're kidding.
Hades: Noooope. My old man was so worried about me taking the throne of the Underworld that he ate me. Luckily, my manwhore of a brother, Zeus, stepped in and saved me before I got completely digested. Pretty scarring moment in my life to be frank....(Smirks Evilly) But it was all more the more sweeter when I rubbed my title all over his wrinkled face. (Takes Another Sip of his Drink)
Pichu: (Turns to Sephiroth With a Confused Look on his Face) Pi, Pi Pi Pichu?
Sephiroth: Uh- It's.....(Starts Rubbing the Top of Pichu's Head Gently) Best not know yet, son. Trust me.
Pichu: (Sighs a Bit While Shrugging) Pichu.
Hades: Hey, speaking of dads, has anyone else knows where Bowser and Kazuya has gone to? I haven't seen two all day today.
Ganondorf: Bowser's spending the rest of day with his kids around town. As for the devil brat, well.........
Meanwhile at Mishima's Cemetery......
Kazuya: (Sings With Five of his Subordinates in a Very Drunken Manner While Pouring a Bottle of Alcohol on Heihachi's Grave) Destinyyyy!~ ('Hic') Or Deadlyyy!~ I Don't Care Which One's Walking This Game!~ They're Nothing Togeeeether!~ What if I go Back ZER-E-O!-
Back at the Mansion
Ridley: That man seriously need to find himself a new hobby. This is getting sad at this point.
Ganondorf: Yep.
Pichu: Pi.
Sephiroth: Mmhmm.
Hades: You know I've been thinking about this for a while now, but do you guys ever wondered who's the actual mother of all those little Koopalings or whatever they call themselves.
Ganondorf: (Grabs his Chin While Thinking) Hm. Now that you've mentioned it, I've been wondering about that too.
Ridley: It's definitely Peach.
Hades: Whaaaat?
Pichu: Pichu!
Sephiroth: I don't believe you.
Ridley: Oh come on! Do you have any ideas how many times Bowser kidnaps that woman in the past?....I don't know the exact numbers, but I can tell you it's a crap ton!
Ganondorf: (Raises an Eyebrow) Where are you getting at exactly, Ridley?
Hades: You know, besides being wrong as usual.
Ridley: Look, all I'm saying here is that during some of those past eight kidnappings, Peach and Bowser may have gotten a little busy among themselves while Mario's out there going through seven plus worlds to try and save her. Kind of like the NTR kind of scenario, ya know?
Pichu was about to speak before Sephiroth stops him by patting the top of his head.
Sephiroth: That's nothing for you to worry about either, my son.
Pichu pouts while crossing his little arms together.
Hades: Oh come now, there's no way Peach would be stupid enough to have eight, separate night stands with Bowser of all people.
Ganondorf: Who, we may add, she shown distaste for on numerous occasions.
Sephiroth: Accidental and purposely.
Pichu: (Nodded in Agreement) Pi.
Ganondorf: Plus, she obviously shows love and affection towards Mario on a daily basis. Makes no sense that she would cheat on him behind his back for so long.
Ridley: ('Scoffs') Please. I bet you all that hate and distaste towards the big guy was all a facade to get us from discovering their secret love from one another. And I can guarantee you all that one of these days, she would crack and go eloping with King Daddy Koopa while leaving that loser plumber in the dust-
'SMASH'
And just like that, Ridley suddenly gets hit in the by an angry looking vegetable plant so hard enough that he falls down the ground in immense pain.
Hades: (Turns to the Knocked Out Ridley Along With Everyone Else in the Table Before Clicking his Tongue) Well, that happened.
?????: HEY!
The reminding League of Villains Members (and Pichu) turns to see a very upset Peach glaring at the table with Mario standing by her.
Peach: Keep mines and Mario's name out your FUCKING. MOUTH!
Mario: (Gently Squeezes Peach's Hand to Calm her Down) They're going to, okay? Let's go outside for a walk. It could do both of us good.
Peach: ('Sighs Heavily') Yeah...A fresh air would be great right about now.
As Peach begins walking away to recollect herself in calmness, Mario looks back at the villains' table (or...most noticeably, an unconscious Ridley) with a fierce glare as his fist begins to shake in anger until.....
Peach: (In the Background) Mario? Where are you, honey?
Mario: (Immediately Returns Vack to his Normal Before Turning Away) I-I'm coming, Peach! (Sprints Off Towards his Princess)
Hades: (Clicks his Tongue Again as He Summons a Notepad and Writes Something Down on it) Welp. Add the princess and plumber to the list of enemies. Who would've thought?
Ganondorf: You know, it's surreal hearing Peach curse like that.
Sephiroth: The woman's anger really does have no bounds.
Pichu: (Nodded in Agreement) Pi.
Ridley: ('Uggggggggggggggh')

In RWBY weapons are a part of a person, an extension of yourself, as Ruby puts it in V1. So, a weapon can say a lot about a person in how it appears and what it's used for.
Looking at Crescent Rose compared to our other main characters' weapons and it's immediately one that stands out from the size alone, it immediately draws our attention, it usually takes up the screen.
Like Ruby, it's striking, awe inspiring and larger than life. It's beautiful, resilient and strong, but evolves to be more adaptable during the Atlas Arc, when Ruby herself has to be more flexible and think outside the box, and her worldview is consistently challenged. It's also very easily the most intricate and complicated design, by her own admission:
"I guess I did go a little overboard in designing it..."
Which, while on the surface means it looks cool and flashy, it's also incredibly complex, just like Ruby.
And as we know from V9, a weapon like that would also be a heavy one to carry at all times too, and it weighs on her. Just like being "Ruby Rose" means to shoulder all the responsibilities and entanglements that come with being who she is, a huntress, a leader, a hero, a spark of hope and light who inspires others. In the end her resolve as a huntress and in who she is, and her purpose, is renewed and stronger than ever before, and wields her weapon once more with confidence.
That doesn't mean her burdens have gotten any lighter though, in fact upon returning to Vacuo, because of her message, all of humanity is now looking to her. No matter how strong, confident and resolved she is, that's a heavy weight for one person to carry alone.
Which brings me to Oscar's weapon, the Long Memory. Which is a cane, smaller, simple and straightforward, but has it's own hidden light stored inside. A cane is meant to take someone's weight by design, that's it's purpose. To be something that's leant on as a crutch when you're hurting to alleviate the pain by taking the pressure off yourself, so moving forward is made easier. Because everyone needs that support sometimes and it's okay to be weak, it doesn't make you lesser, it just makes you human. And it is incredibly human for us to care for and lean on one another for support. That vulnerability leads to our greatest strength as humans.
The one who carries the heaviest weapon vs The one who has a weapon that can be leant on to take pressure off yourself. Ruby who carries a heavy burden and Oscar being someone that can be leant on for support. ooooooohhhh the cymbal ism of it all.
