[Opening as Speedsters do. With speed. Already moving to slap his hand over the button.]
[ Using puppetry to freeze him dead in his tracks ]
Not today.
Not today.
[ Well, she's-- uh. Crying.
But she immediately casts Lightning Flash to blind her opponent and books it to the button. ]

[ She's still covered in a protective coating of silvery cherry bark when she enters, looking a touch winded.
All she's looking for is her opponent, not even trying to register who they are before Cut-Tongue Sparrow blinds them. ]

[crying? that's--
well now he's blinded but he's going to cast Double Take on her to make her ~DO THE SHUFFLE~]
Who's there!?

I have to say, you're still recognizable, even while running at top speed.
[ Except now that he's under her control, she's going to grab an ankle and raise her leg all the way up to her head. Try to keep up, buddy. ]

[And she runs.
[Doesn't think about it. Can't think about it. One tactic--
[Wednesday registers who she's facing more than sees it. Tall, dark hair, scornful: Intensity. At four times speed she has time to doubt herself, doubt that anything she could come up with could ever be anywhere near good enough against him.
[But she has to keep going. She has to.
[She's got no other ideas.]

[ well fuck!
they were quick enough to activate Ain't Misbehavin' to freeze whoever their opponent was, assuming someone who made it this far would be playing for keeps - but at the blindness their tail droops, staying perfectly still. ]
Just fucking give up, whoever you are! I've got you and I will make us both sit right here until time's up if you don't turn the lights back on!

[ nope, still blind ]
....Hello Ruby.
It's been some time since our last fight, hasn't it.
[Unfortunately, it's not Intensity that Wednesday has to worry about as the roar of Blue Eyes cuts through the air and swoops down to descend upon her.
(Because let's face it, there's no way this noodle can outrun a pep! Possibly not even on normal speed).]

[And he stalks forward looking absolutely LIVID as he gets a good look at his adversary.]
You?
My opponent after---
[He grits his teeth]
--Is you!?

[ what the fuck
her voice shaky: ]
-- let me go!

I had a proper fight with D.va. I'm not sure if it was better or worse for her, that she requested we use our powers. Most of LiliS's don't fight very honestly.
I know the situation for BARiTONES is much the same.

[ Folding the leg in, only to take it to the back and all the way up again. Don't they look pretty? ]
I'm sorry, please understand, I don't know how I'd face everyone if I simply let you win. So I'm afraid you'll either have to take the loss, or go into the next round with dislocated limbs.

[She dodges.
[Screams-- but dodges.
[One tactic, she tells herself. One tactic. It's not quite enough. She has to struggle free, but even that - even that she can do in an eyeblink, and even Blue Eyes might not quite keep up.
[And then she's free. He's stalking toward her and his gaze is terrible but one tactic, one tactic and she's free
[So she picks herself up, and she runs--
[(because she's come this far, and she can't stop now)
[--a gaudy pink streak taring straight for the button, fingers scrabbling for a moment at the smooth surface before she strikes it hard as she can with her palm.]

No... I am sorry, I cannot.
[pause]
Are you crying?
[pause]
Are you crying?
Owowowow--you're not even slightly sorry! I definitely don't understand why that's the issue here!!
