#fistfight

[one-time-i-dreamt]

I was watching a Broadway play and one of the actors was in a spandex Spiderman costume. I got into a fistfight with him in the lobby after the show.

Human vs Saiyajin: Horatio vs Yulaan, courtesy of Salvamakoto

Taken directly from Hokuto no Ken, during Kenshiro's fistfight with Raoh.

Something of a follow-up to 

1965 Bering Sea, near Mekoryuk, Alaska

Sol Yulaan and a fellow sailor named Billy Davis have a nice, calm discussion about who was Western history's greatest war hero

Horatio in the back there doesn't think Yulaan is being considerate of Billy's opinion that Davy Crockett is better than Leonidas and Achilles. 

And don't worry, folks— Billy survives and the two settle their differences over alcohol (which does little for a Yaban but it'd be rude to not celebrate a good fight discussion).

Admittedly, Billy might've initially disregarded Yulaan for being a dame, and she may have had to politely remind him she's a bolloi, but it all worked out

On that trip through the northwest seas, Horatio is one of those men who gets tickled by the prospect of fighting Yulaan. But you see, especially in the 1960s, a male fighting a female in direct physical combat is utterly verboten— at least in public. Even with the arrival of Yabans on Earth, the idea of men fighting bollois just is not palatable despite the clear differences bollois present vs human women. And bollois, at least those well integrated into Earth culture, know better than to publicly challenge men to fights for a similar reason: the whole "men mustn't fight ladies" isn't just due to pure chivalry but also due to the potential humiliation and shame if a man were to lose. It's sort of a double standard: men can't let women win honestly because to be a man bested by a woman is to be utterly emasculated and seen as pathetic and weak, but a man can't let a woman lose because how dare a man strike a lady in battle! So best to just not let the two fight at all to avoid that contradiction— better for a man and a lady to do the other f-word with each other. And for bollois, who nevertheless still carry the form and tag of ladies for two, ahem, very obvious reasons, this can get frustrating seeing as their blood screams for battle and challenge. Hence why they do often fight in private instead, as for men interested, the sheer strength and ability of bollois is second to none, and said private battles don't carry the potential for social stigma or humiliation. These will likely never be televised until some future more liberal age comes to pass, and most people know these go down behind the walls of society, but at least at this point in time, few make a big deal out of it. It's a similar phenomenon to courtesans and prostitution when you think about, except for the obvious differences.

This is what gets Horatio to try this chances against Yulaan, though as just himself, he wouldn't stand much of a chance, so Yulaan gathers a chi multiplier for him to exploit: one which boosts his human abilities enough to actually give her a secular challenge. By this point in time, the other men of the King Salmon know what Yulaan's about, so this is an impromptu shadow-duel.

TF One Fanfic: Joined at the Spark

We finally finished the first five out of fifteen chapters of this thing, had to because it's always on our mind when we're not thinking or doing something else (we loved the movie that much and it unintentionally collided with so much of what we write and adore about transformers), major spoilers for Transformers One of course. Summary under the cut, major characters so far are in the tags:

Before his overthrow was spearheaded by Optimus Prime, Elita One, Bumblebee, and Megatron, Sentinel Prime's colonial client state regime over Iacon and it's mines faced multiple challenges from the very beginning and throughout its fifty years following the end of the overt thousands-year long conflict between Transformer society and that of the Quintesson empire. This is a story of how those challenges were resolved, how no matter how it played out, one way or another Sentinel's regime would fall under it's own oppressive weight, the intercession of his overlords, or from the liberation of revolution- and it is also the story of the first batches of miners at the heart of that, of Solus Prime's gambit against possible betrayal, the story of how Arcee, Moonracer, and their pals pushed back, while Sentinel desperately looked for a way to legitimize his rule by having a co-conspirator to blame- a reactionary much worse than himself. To stop him from destroying the parts of the legacy of the Thirteen and the old alliances of Cybertron, the transformative nexus at the foundation of the eldest ways of autonomy known to their species, that Sentinel still thought he cared for. The end will navigate how, decades later, Arcee and some of her pals managed to survive, and the part they play beyond what the film showed. This is a story about the might of love, and it's currently out on Ao3
