Case #973,837,474 of Unsanctioned Violence in the Fordverse:
Megalomaniac vs Watchdog
[Commission by @maridrawss | Euclydia Rises AU by @orxinus | Somebody to Call My Own AU by @nowimjustastranger]
The tragic irony that they technically have the same brother, and same mother.
Transcript and further information under the cut:
[ MM!Ford: I'm going to break you to pieces, just like you were your brother.
Watchdog: I'm going to kill you again, just like you killed your own mother.
Vision Stanley, Projection Caryn, and Sentinal / Watchdog's original Stan: *playing ghost poker as they watch the fight, unimpressed* ]
Why yes, this is an Undertale reference.
Reasons why they would fight:
Watchdog doesn't have a reason to fight MM!Ford, who already doesn't have a Stan anymore because he destroyed his original dimension; so Watchdog isn't trying to rehome any Stan's from or worse, to MM!Ford. I could see them at the very least having beef or not liking each other on principle.
Watchdog already doesn't like most Ford alts, and he especially hates the ones who killed their Stan. Meanwhile, MM!Ford thinks he's the best Ford variant in the multiverse, so he'd by default see Watchdog as below him.
BUT, MM!Ford is also stated to hate/blame The Axolotl for what happened to his dimension. And Watchdog works for the Axolotl, so I can see that as a point of contention.
I think Megalomanic Ford does have god-like power though, and while Watchdog is biologically enhanced and has futuresight, it's not like he could fight a Bill Cipher without some prep work first.
And to do this fight, Watchdog would have to temporarily gain diety level status. How would he do that? Well...
Bullshit God-summoning ritual
Ares: Who calls upon the God of War?
Jerk Ford: Can I have some consequence-free Moly?
Ares: Why would I bestow the strength and power of a God to a coward and a schemer like you?
Jerk Ford: What about this guy? *holds up a picture of Watchdog*
The picture has the following bullet points written on it:
Loves fighting
Prefers face-to-face combat
Likes the colour red
Drinks a tall glass of Respect Women Juice every single day
