The Weekly Plot Segment: No Lore for You![edit | edit source]
Pulling the Plug[edit | edit source]
Thoroughly fed up after the last five weeks saw the mania taken over by Slaanesh, Exterminatus'd, norted, infiltrated, and 8chanmania XCVI taken over by Slaanesh (again)]], Default-Chan decided she was going to pull the plug on the actual culprit causing all of these repeated and nigh-disaster:
The mania's Dialogue Program. Which is to say, Violet and Lil' Vi.
There would be no more special effects, full-screen assets, animations, custom music, fancy dialogue boxes, and most certainly no choose-your-own text adventures for the chat. Which not only would bring the mania back to its humble technological roots from back in Season 1, but also meant assorted villains and other parties could no longer pull insane bullshit plot twists on her.
Old Friends[edit | edit source]
This went well enough for the first two matches, even if the regular old fighting soon bored Deffy to the point that she slowly re-enabled dialogue, custom entry themes, and other modding elements. The real problem arose when it became apparent that disabling all of the aforementioned mods had given a drastic boost to the FPWW vanilla wrestlers under Mr. Cobra who were now trying to take over the mania.
After the second match of the preliminaries, Mr. Cobra thus sent in his champion Bobby Bobby. Default-chan responded by sending Baba, who ensured that BOBBY IS PIN, BABA IS WIN. A fuming Mr. Cobra fled back to the shadows, but not without announcing this wouldn't be the last Deffy had seen of him.
Bragging Rights[edit | edit source]
Sensing he was on melting ice as Default-chan brough more and more mods back online, Mr. Viper made an attempt on Deffy herself by bringing in Dag Boomer and Dai Fugo. Default-Chan was about to take out both of them herself, but got unexpected help from the FPWW newface John Smith. Who may or may not have been a double agent on the part of the FPWW default crew, since he promptly got pinned by Boomer.
Though victorious, the FPWWW crew seemed content to "assert dominance" and decided to leave Deffy be for the time being. The latter actually took her defeat in good stride, and indeed cried tears of you over the fact that no-one over the entire course of the preliminaries had so much as mentioned the damn Wrestle You-Know-What.
The Big Old Showdown[edit | edit source]
But the fat lady had not sung yet. Not that Mr. Viper was fat or a lady, and he also didn't plan to sing. But just as Teagan Almace won the tournament and her second belt, Viper gently reminded Deffy that she was not the only person who could use all the mods she had turned back on.
Before Deffy quite knew what was going on, Teagan found herself in a in a four-way free-for-all between herself, Mr. Viper, Solid Snake (who was pissed off because the Colonel had given her the alias of "White Snake", and John Smith. A healthy dose of fighting later, John was sent packing, Solid Snake turned out be Liquid Snake as he fled, and Mr. Cobra tapped out against Teagan.
Now, a reasonable man would know when to fold them. But Mr. Viper is not a reasonable man, and stormed back into the ring with his entire entourage of FPWW Default fighters. Left with little in the way of a choice (and aggressively lobbied by her sister Violet), Default-Chan turned the mania's mods back on full blast; causing a gigantic Dunpan to appear and blow the FPWW fighters right off the screen with a ginormous "PRÖÖÖÖÖ :DDD".
Here We Go Again[edit | edit source]
With the mania saved and Deffy having reconciled with Violet, everything seemed to have gone back to normal. Except this is the Mania, so "normal" is usually an euphemism for "HOLY SHIT WHY IS EVERYTHING ON FIRE?"
Notwithstanding the lack of actual flames, it soon became apparent that turning the mods back on might not have been the best of ideas. Namely because scores of villains ranging from Robbie Rotten, to Albert Wesker, to Bowser, to Vile, to Spontaneous Bootay amassed on-screen and stated their intention to make the mania theirs. A slightly embarrassed Violet (who had been the one to talk Deffy into reactivating these mods) defused the situation by quickly playing the ending roll.
