I also wanted to ask, some Menat and/or Elena (both from Street Fighter) x G/N Reader headcanons?
YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND!!! Also, sorry for the long wait on this one and the short response, Writersblock is a bitch.
Elena is an energetic girl who can make friends with damn near anyone.
I mean, she made buddies with Akuma.
AKUMA!
And yet, people were still surprised when she said the two of you were together.
Perhaps because of her globetrotting habits?
Either way, Elena did like spending her time with you, especially when it came to being outside.
The wind always seemed to be a bit sweeter, a bit lighter, and a bit more powerful when she was with you.
The tree branches always stung a little less when she was running, the leaves helped a little more to keep her cool, and the trunk of the tree was always there for the two of you to lean on.
She was glad for them to be there for the both of you.
That being said, she did take quite a bit more joy in crushing you in a hug and showering you with kisses.
Needless to say, Elena is not the type of girl who really cares about showing affection in public, though she does save her more extravagant displays for when it's just the two of you.
To summarize, Elena is a lady who much prefers to spend her time with you together as opposed to with others around. After all, the greatest displays of love often take place in the smallest, most intimate moments. Fleeting instances where the world is nothing more than the trees and the wind and you and her.
Menat, bless her soul, still has no idea how she ended up with you.
She did a quick reading while she was in your area and then things… things kinda happened.
What “things” were, Menat had no idea.
All she knew was that she suddenly had someone new that she very much enjoyed talking to.
That and… well… she definitely had gotten a lot better when it came to fortune telling when it came to relationships.
She also really, really wanted to introduce you to Rose but that could wait.
After all, Menat wanted to keep you to herself for a little longer.
Even if only to get you fully whipped into shape for her teacher.
Or that's what she told herself at least.

Companionship in Street Fighter
The most interesting concept in Street Fighter 6 that I really liked was companionship. Every character is connected in one way or another, and most are symbolic of Ken and Ryu's relationship over the years.
Ken and Ryu were always the faces of Street Fighter since the beginning and their friendship/rivalry was something capcom really took into consideration when pushing SF6 out. Ken, Chun-li, and Ryu are getting older but they have a lasting impact on Capcom as a whole.
SF6 now has a roster of fighters that are connected to each other from old to new relationships.
Kimberly and Dee Jay, Marisa and Zangief, Blanka and Lily, Chun-li and Li-fen etc.
Even the Player has a rival/friendship with someone in the Street Fighter Universe.
Although Bosch seems like a character that gets sidelined within the first hour of the game, I do think that Bosch and the Player do have a significant connection.
When talking to our Masters, I find it interesting how often Bosch comes up in conversation.
Granted Player is the one bringing him up, but I found this interaction with Dhalsim fascinating.
Dhalsim: Create a fist within your heart.
Dhalsim: Good. Allow me to pose a question to you. What lies beyond that fist?
Dhalsim: I see. This is your friend...or perhaps a mortal foe?
Dhalsim: Forget what you saw.
Dhalsim: You wish to transcend the shadow, yet it remains inextricably linked to you.
Dhalsim: it is up to you to interpret its significance.
The Player brings up Bosch a lot in conversations that aren't about him, and it's got me thinking, does Bosch even care about the Player to that extent too?
We never see his perspective throughout the story so we could only assume as much.
He trusted the Player enough to give them a SIM card before he was taken. Maybe to tell them, "If anything happened to me, this is how you can find Kalima and the Resistance."
And he tried many times to scare the Player off so they wouldn't enter the Suval'hal tournament. Where he would've activated the championship belt to kill himself and JP.
But when the Player found out Cardboard combatant was him all along, he said "If you've come this far, I want you to watch me finish this fight." The fight between the Resistance and JP.
Bosch even asked the Player if you can give Yua his bangle and tell her that he's dead, he says "You're the only one I can count on."
Bosch also chose to go to the Player when his body was reaching its limit as a warning if things go south. That he may not recognize them in the arena.
And at the end of the post-credit cutscene, Bosch is wearing the matching hat that he and you got when visiting Metro City.
In the end, Bosch's hair is shaved so I can assume it's to keep people from recognizing him and a low profile.
In fiction, it could symbolize character growth and a break from the past. But paired with his matching hat, which he mentioned was cringy, he is still linked to you, the Player. Just as Dhalsim said.
