So chill the fuck out.

Jill by @Calamancyy

We also have a special striptease version this time.

Also Jill by @Calamancyy

Alright, calm down, here's the latest rumble.

Short version- https://youtube.com/shorts/k4TwnyTdf78

Wait a second... where the hell is Betty?

What are you doing!? Put that down this instant, young lady!

Russian Rouletty by @TheShokBlok

I turn around for two seconds and she enters another one of Bloko's death games. I've told her a million times, it's far safer to stick to my games... of death. See how she gets on here- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1533997

That rascal Penelope has also been up to no good outside the rumbles.

Forever Sophie by @Daysdove

Calamancyy also did a comic. What is this, do a comic day?

Lowtown Beatdown by @Calamancyy (just said that)

Remember last time when I wrote something and it was an absolute pain in the ass going through changing all the past tense to present tense (because I started in present tense) and I said I'm never writing again? Well anyway, I did chapter 2 the next day and am doing a whole book now.

Mad Nadia by @goljie

As you can probably tell from the above rumble, and her adventures with Lin, she's not mad at all, she's actually very nice (mostly). Here's the latest One on One (OoO)

Haven't mentioned @nakvi (and his dialog portraits ^^^) in a while. He posted this one the other day.

Horseface by @nakvi (just said that)

Believe it or not, she can appear in the rumbles as soon as somebody picks her. Who do you think I am, every Mortal Kombat after Trilogy? Speaking of which...

Crispy Montgomery by @ChutneyGlaze

Posted this because I'd nothing else finished. R/Capoeira really liked it at least. As I say, somebody pick her to see her in action. On the subject of stealing credit from Chutney.

Betty Battle Card by @53xy83457 (yes it is, shut up, at least I know how to count friggin' stat points!)

Betty and @Calamancyy are at it again! Put this together for his joke OC trading card game. Been meaning to visit the OC arena again too but there are only so many fictional fighting leagues I can fit into a day.

ANOTHER Betty and Jane by @fe3l1ngsk1lledd

There's also a Jane in the background of this which I can't be arsed explaining. Details here- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1533229#bbspost27852977_post_text

Gameen starts a riot by @KingCrowned

Here's the collab for this fortnight--

Easter-egg-collab by @AnassAnimationPro and a few others

There were actually a load more as usual but this is the only one that happened to release. Did also notice the big pantz + bikini thing though. Was early on this one, Betty's been wearing it for a while.

Of course I've already pointed out that Girlfriend from FNF stole this costume from her, as well as her blue dress blonde hair baseball bat combo, during this.

Here are some other examples I saw today (might've actually been a furry challenge in hindsight).

While I'm recommending stuff, here's this playlist I've been putting in...

https://www.newgrounds.com/playlist/view/fb45111f5ad1358f64e01356b88dff7b

(because having to delete a message every time I want to send a new one wasn't enough, it affects favs now too)

Let's end on a more positive note (of something else that fucked up). Don't bully them, it was just amusing to me that it happened on this particular project. Not like there were many graphics to initialize.

(funny enough, not even the only moth girl I've dealt with this week)

<<<<< I'm a big bunny girl now since it's Easter (similarities to any existing fighting game characters are purely coincidental).

(I'm not the only one)

Turns out, cramming twenty unique critical hit animations into each combatant was one too many hitboxes for Twitch to handle but at least it made a complete balls of the video otherwise. Sharing it anyway so you can appreciate @NickSenny's performance. The more violent, less glitchy #short version can be found here- https://youtu.be/5MABxJVPdl8

(Twitch... more like glitch!)

I almost forgot, there was a special bonus rumble this week as well (that YouTube spoiled in the thumbnail).

The One on One (OoO) fights also continued. As always, if you want to take part in any of these, or just fund whatever other bullshit I decide to do, you can

The Lin Twins by @goljie

Did something unusual (for me) with Lin and Violent Lin (Vio. Lin) yesterday. More on that in a minute.

Crispy Montgomery by @Calamancyy

A lot of people like Crispy here (similarities to any existing fighting game characters are purely coincidental), should probably have some fun with her soon. Again, considering the places this week went, it'll most likely be sooner that later.

@TheShokBlok

Wait, why the fuck did I include this one? Must be some subtle reason... Whatever, it's adorable. Dangerous precedent though, won't have any room for my own characters if I post everything I think is cute.

SPEAKING OF WHICH this is M4rr3o's unfortunately named OC (who I just remembered we've already visited). They posted her on Twitter and asked to see any other fighter girls (also something about an RP). As someone who runs one or ten fictional combat leagues, I had A FEW lying around so I sent Jane and RePosted as requested.

Not saying Miss Pain was the inception of this costume, pretty sure Karen's wore something similar before, but she must have been an inspiration to bring it back at the very least.

Of course, as you might've already seen, RP doesn't stand for repost, as I first thought, but actually roleplay. Tore on anyway, it was fun for the most part. Didn't really enjoy having Jane brutalise poor old Karen for five paragraphs straight (should've stayed down the first time). Whatever the case, it lead to me wanting to write more than my usual pre-match banter, so

I WROTE SOMETHING

Don't get me wrong, I pride myself on being more literate than 99.999% of the internet (AKA literate) but I think I'll stick to programming them to beat the shit out of each other (because yes it was about a fight, of course it was). As much as I LOVED going through it twenty times to change all the past tense to present tense because I started in present tense, I have more important things to do.

Speaking of which, here's all the collabs I was in this time-

@Ilovecats324 & a million others

@MarshyBruh & a million others

@fe3l1ngsk1lledd & a billion others

Also asked a question for this-

And this (kind of)-

Did that ring girl thing on Twitter as well.

There was something on DeviantArt for women's history month. Here's what I did- https://www.deviantart.com/53xy83457/art/JD-Can-Do-It-1034310321

Just mentioning it because the badge looks like she's doing the suck cock gesture (shouldn't have moved the mouth and arm at the same time lol)

There's more bollocks from over there but I'll leave it til next time.

Went through a load of Steam games to clear space on my computer and noticed that somebody stole Betty! Several years before I created her somehow!

Game is Aliens Go Home Run but I'll actually recommend Bug Fables.

It also has a cute moth lady. She's more a music themed support character so obviously her special move is to run up to the opponent and kick them in the balls and then stomp their head in (she'd fit in well here). On a lesser endorsement, I've put 24 hours into it and I don't even like video games anymore.

Alright, I'll end on this because I'm admittedly quite proud of it.

Preamble- The other day, somebody on Twitter asked to see any fighter girls. As you might know, I run one or ten fictional combat leagues so I had a few lying around. Long story short, RP actually means roleplay as opposed to repost so we got in a fight and now I feel like writing something more than pre-match banter for the second time this week (also the second time in a few... decades) so here we are.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////

A young lady, wearing a white karategi, sits alone in the middle of a dimly lit dojo, her straight black hair held back with a matching white headband. Her apparent meditation is interrupted by the sound of approaching footsteps. She opens her eyes to find a pair of beautiful blue ones staring back at her. She hops up and offers a quick bow in greeting. "Hello", she states in a soft, sweet voice with hints of a Japanese accent, "My name is Lin Yin, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Lin breaks eye contact momentarily to study her new companion's attire... or lack thereof. The black shorts, sports bra and fingerless gloves betray her fighting style. Lin was dealing with a cage fighter and a pretty tall one at that. Although, being brought up to keep herself presentable, Lin couldn't help but admire the neat bun her blonde hair was tied into.

"My name is Nadia", the MMA combatant bellows out in a friendly voice with more than hints of an Eastern European accent. "Nice to meet you too", she continues awkwardly copying Lin's bow as to avoid seeming rude. "Why the fuck are your eyes pink!?" Nadia considers to herself. "Like not albino or conjunctivitis pink, damned near neon pink!" Nadia knew to look at Lin, her opponent wouldn't be dumb enough to wear novelty Halloween contact lenses to a fight. "I'll spare you my last name", she blurts out to interrupt the almost awkward silence, "We'd be here all night" she jokes.

Lin offers a small smile from her, until now perpetually serious face, before assuming her fighting stance. "No foreplay", Nadia thinks to herself, "I like this one." She bounces on her toes a few times in lieu of a proper warmup before raising her fists. They approach each other, Nadia making the first move, launching a jab which Lin easily blocks. Lin replies with one of her own which Nadia also deflects. Still sizing her adversary up, Nadia gives a light roundhouse kick to Lin's side. Lin responds in kind once more, only reaching the taller lady's thigh.

Nadia doesn't even entertain the notion of blocking. Two moves in and this perceived mimicry game is already getting tiresome. Nadia launches a haymaker at Lin's face. In the blink of an eye, Lin sidesteps and introduces her fist to Nadia's cheek instead. It hurt... but something was off. "I was wide open, is she seriously holding back?", Nadia wonders to herself. "Alright small fry, you want to play games, let's see you copy this!" Nadia swings her leg at Lin in another roundhouse, this time aiming for her skull. Lin ducks and again mirrors the move with a jumping variation to reach the towering opponent's head.

"Got you", thinks Nadia, grabbing a helplessly airborne Lin in a bear hug. She slams them both to the ground, quickly mounting Lin before she can squirm away. Equally predictable to Nadia was how Lin quickly raises her guard to block the barrage of fists heading for her face. Nadia doesn't mind, she just feels like punching for a while. The growing agony in Lin's arms was almost too much to bear, but she knows that if one of these sledgehammer like blows makes proper contact, it's all over.

After what felt like hours for Lin, the bombardment ends with one final punch. Nadia almost seems to use the momentum to spring to her foot, its partner already raised to fall like a tonne of bricks onto Lin's gut. Lin, struggling to remember ever being hit harder, thinks back to happier times a few seconds ago when she imagined her arms were about to snap off. Regardless she keeps them up, not falling for the trap, although any attempts to roll away were halted with a subsequent stomp to the stomach.

"Feels like she has some nice strong abdominals under those fancy pyjamas", Nadia thinks to herself. "Still amazing that she can keep her guard up for this long... Oh crap, I'm daydreaming, I should stop before she pops like a grape." The crushing cavalcade continues a further few seconds than Nadia intends as she moves on to thinking about wine, vodka's supremacy to wine, and what celebratory cocktail she might get at the nearest bar later.

Eventually she snaps back to reality and wraps herself around one of Lin's now shaking arms like a hungry spider. With all her strength, she pulls the limb back into an arm bar. Lin screams, showing obvious signs of pain for the first time since the two met. The piercing sound almost makes Nadia regret the maneuver but she wasn't about to insult a fellow fighter by going easy on them, remembering how she felt about her similar suspicions from earlier.

Nadia continues the pressure. "Just give up, don't make me break it!", she shouts, starting to think she'd have to shatter both arms and a leg before this stubborn young combatant would tap out. Never in a million years would she have predicted what would actually happen next. Lin's scream turns to an angry yell as she breaks the hold and tosses Nadia across the room like a sack of potatoes.

Nadia rises to find a completely different person angrily glaring back at her. The top of Lin's formerly neatly folded gi was torn open revealing a similar black sports bra to Nadia's. Her headband was also lost in the struggle, leaving two wavy strands of hair dangling down like inverted demon horns. If Nadia didn't know better, she'd even swear her pretty pink eyes now glowed red with rage. No time to consider any of that, not to mention the fact one of her specialty submissions was broken with one arm apparently.

Lin sprints towards Nadia and unleashes a maelstrom of punches and kicks, the speed of which she had never seen before. "At least she's not holding back any mo..", a fist to Nadia's stomach, as she futilely attempts to protect her face, interrupts the thought. Nadia feels like she was just impaled on Lin's arm. "How embarrassing", she thinks, making efforts to swallow the resulting mouthful of blood and not risk spewing it into her new friend's face. Nadia slumps over, she is done.

Lin is not. She jumps on her fallen opponent's chest and unleashes a further shower of fists into her face with the veracity of a wild animal. No one in the room is in any position to count how many but eventually Lin regains her composure, the rage in her face replaced with shock and concern. Nadia's face, on the other hand, could be more closely compared to a cheeseless pizza. For a moment, Lin thinks she's actually killed her. Nadia sputters to life, "And they call me Mad Nadia." Tears well up in Lin's eyes as a mix of emotions go through her head.

"Could you get off me please, you're right on my tits!", half-jokes Nadia, attempting to make light of the situation. A giggle escapes Lin's lips along with a mouthful of blood right into her new friend's face. "Sorry", she barely whispers out as the pain in her stomach sets in and she keels over next to her. Nadia, still lying otherwise motionless raises a hand to wipe the now mixture of bloods off her face. "Black eye, broken nose, black eye, shiner above that one, teeth still in tact. I've had worse." she thinks to herself.

"I can see why you were holding back", Nadia speaks aloud to a hopefully conscious Lin, "but what was with that mirror shit at the start?", she asks casually as if talking to an old friend she's known for years as opposed to minutes. "Sorry. Advice from colleague. New tactic. Anger opponent. Make them lose focus.", Lin gasps out. "Good job", replies Nadia, her exhaustion dampening the intended amount of sarcasm.

They lie in silence for a while. Nadia still thinking of the pub, getting ready to invite her new friend despite the mangled state both their guts are already in. Lin was already thinking forward to new opponents. She heard that some of them weren't going to be as pleasant as Nadia. She wasn't worried about shady tactics or getting hurt, she was concerned that she might actually be the biggest monster in the tournament.

@ConfusedSnowMan

<<<<< I'm a big moth girl now! This was actually one of @ChutneyGlaze's. Superhero origin story here. Or perhaps villain judging by the profile picture (by @Nakvi). What horrible murderous intentions are swirling around behind those big blank eyes? Or maybe she's just distracted by a lightbulb or something, who knows.

I probably should've been Jill this time, since she has a t-shirt out for St. Paddy's Day, but whatever.

GET ONE HERE

Now that I actually talked about the shit you're meant to talk about at the top of the post at the top of the post, LOOK HOW MANY COLLABS I WAS IN THIS WEEK!!

@TheAsterDood02

@RepriseAgain and a million others.

@ICantSeeHelp and a million others.

@EmsDeLaRoZ, @whimsical-wife and a million others.

@ItsRohan and others.

@TechnoCookie and others.

The cool thing about my name starting with 5 is that I usually get top billing when emails go out for these. lol

Also helped get the scoreboards working on this if you want to revisit it and get your name on the top of something.

@Nabella

But back to the topic of cute fluffy grey things. @Calamancyy designed a new costume for Snowy.

@Calamancyy (as I just said, try to pay attention)

So I stuck her in the rumbles with it.

Long version- https://youtu.be/4NjbWrEqC94

(I'm aware Jane really should've been in that one.)

Special thanks to @jazzy666 for voicing all these. Can't imagine why I felt like saying that right now after that one in particular. @PerKGrok's jungle girl's dialog (or lack thereof) portrait was done by @Nakvi.

Speaking of whom...

Long version (with slightly different ending)- https://youtu.be/4EcGIpx27bc

Trying something else on Patreon since I prefer things up close and personal... Not as much as these two but anyway, if you want to be part of the next fights,

You might even get to face (digs through commissions from @goljie), Marsha Law!

@goljie (as I just said, try to pay attention)

Or... La Tormenta!

@DukkDuddie

Don't have any more fighters to post today but I was going to recommend something. I don't play that many video games anymore but...

FOR SOME REASON I was drawn to this one. As I was saying to Ivan the Rapist, the last thing I played was The Last Faith at Christmas so I'm on an oddly bi-monthly Metroidvania schedule. Whatever the case, I liked Fearmonium AND it's currently on sale on Steam (good timing for once).

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1068360/Fearmonium/

In my own game related news, it might be your last chance to get Spread The Love. Google are bitching about something offensive on the store page, and I don't know what, so they're talking about taking it down (I don't even know if it works anymore). Should probably stick these old mobile games on Patreon or something anyway.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.SpreadTheLove&hl=en&gl=US

Speaking of which, somebody blocked me this week. I was going to joke about never getting something blammed until recently when I joined a project after it was already dead. Then it came back. Now it's gone again. So it might actually be the case that, after over fifteen years, I got blammed and blocked, for the first time (that I know of), in the same week.

Anything else... Here's one of those coincidences that you all love when I talk about. Screenshot it just in time but, then again, I was in twenty collabs this week so it's probably inevitable.

Actually, one more. Here's the first thing I saw after posting this.

I also got an invite code for Bluesky...

https://bsky.app/profile/53xy83457.bsky.social

...like a week before it was open to the public. Whatever, it's crap anyway.

I'm just rambling now, see you next time.

Teespring, or whatever they're called now, kept emailing me to do limited edition merch runs because of "fomo". I don't know what anyone's sexual orientation has to do with it but here's a new shirt for Saint Patrick's Day featuring Jill.

Coincidentally enough I bought my da, who happens to have bad eyesight, a shirt with a similar gag for his birthday last week.

In other news I released two games yesterday apparently.

53-X by @Nakvi

<<<<< I'm Kristanna Loken from Terminator 3 now! Not really... or kind of. You do a decade of "robot day" games, stuff starts to go places. Anyway, here's the titular Valentine's Day rumble. Yeah yeah, "better late than pregnant" as Betty used to say before she mastered her baseball batbortions.

Long version that Twitch made a balls out of- https://youtu.be/p47VSov-ZsE

I'm up to something. If you were something close to considering joining in on these rumbles, I'd suggest that now's the time.

https://www.patreon.com/53xy83457

Our cybernetic friend is also in the oc arena now.

It's been like six years since I've done anything with her. It's been nine years since something else. These end times we're in can quickly turn a few years into a decade.

Guess I'm sticking around for that. The perfect opportunity to retire (for the fifth and final time) is coming up at the end of this year... but who am I kidding, I'm never going to stop.

Anyway, here're some cute bunny girls.

Beck vs Spiders by @Calamancyy

Speaking of whom, here's another oc arena shitpost I did with one of their characters (also a bunny).

I've got something to say to @Calamancyy! Not this time, next time.

Betty's my favourite but Beetles looks really cool so she's my favourite out of this batch but nobody ever does JD and she's my favourite!

Mitch and Mitch Jr. by @goljie

My initial thoughts were how adorable they look, and indeed they do, but this might actually be the most sinister picture anyone has ever sent me AND that includes the one at the top of this post. Maybe it's just because I know the things they've done.

Damian vs Damien by @BlueBrobi35

@BlueBrobi35 get's another Damian in just before I post this. Or six hours ago considering how long it takes me to write this shit.

I was also in this of course, on the topic of Valentine's Day.

According to other reviews I'm mistaken, or maybe it's just my antique ass account but when I got over 100 notifications here, it just looped back to 1. Have a screenshot of 75 but never mind that, only have one image left and have something very important to share with it.

Forgot about this last time. Remember the YouTube member perk video with all the cock jokes?

I flipped the thumbnail of that so the pink bit looks like a bellend when I add it to the end of other videos.

I am once again, the EPITOME of professionalism.

@KDT

<<<<< I'm a cat girl now! Why, what did you think the title was referring to? You can see Snowy here in action in the latest rumble.

#Short version- https://youtu.be/X7KMxSd-hac

This made me think of the intro.

(should've got Curby to read Mitch's line)

Join the next ones here- https://www.patreon.com/53xy83457

(new tiers have been added)

Snowy origins explained here and she's definitely not just a Tigra palette swap.

She also got into a fight with Damian recently.

@Chdonga

Speaking of things that are so cute I just want to squeeze their big fluffy head until their eyeballs pop out, here's a Beetles.

@Calamancyy

I've got something to say to @Calamancyy! Not this time, it'll be the one after the next one. Haven't visited the oc arena as much as I would've liked recently. Been too busy getting into fights elsewhere.

(Spiders vs @Calamancyy's Hammer Bunny is the only new one)

Again, speaking of things so cute squeeze head eyeballs, but the bunny girls in particular-

I'M DOING AN ASK MY OCS ANYTHING!!

@Nebulate asked those two something already. Let me know if there's anything you'd like to ask and I'm sure they'll respond in their usual very polite, eloquent way.

On a completely unrelated note, here's my new YouTube member perks video that has a cock joke ten seconds in.

Thanks to @Jazzy666 as always for voicing all the horrible shit I write.

Which brings us to a rare audio shout-out which is also a shout-out. I'll not waste an image slot on the Xzibit meme. (before your time, don't worry about it)

@Aalasteir

Here's a Blinki.

@goljie 

Grok also did a Damian the other day.

@PerKGrok

As did @BlueBrobi35 (maybe just slightly before the other day).

@BlueBrobi35

And here's a surprise Jane.

@11dbh

And another.

(this should spin, see below link if it doesn't)

@Daysdove

MORE JANE!!

@ChutneyGlaze

This one is available on t-shirts and as a sticker and therefore should've been mentioned much further up the post.

Also meant to say thanks to @nebssik for (more than) some recent business advice. Not that I really needed it, I've always been the very epitome of professionalism clearly.

Here's a summary of some stuff you might've missed among all the pretty pictures.

3 Fictional Fighting Things - https://53xy83457.newgrounds.com/news/post/1417977

More here-

Have seen this going around recently... Guess we're doing it!! (I don't know why I do things). You have presumably met everyone already.

Some like Betty, Jane and Mitch have even had adventures outside the arena. This is of course pointless for today's proceedings because, as we all know, the answers lie in the heart of battle. The former didn't involve any fighting at all, she barely even killed anyone!

I'll leave a list of names below but, considering I've been here for a frankly upsetting length of time, I'll not be surprised if the majority of questions are directed at the older lads. Fun fact: I forgot one of them existed until receiving fan art of him the other day. It wasn't even a minor character, he has his own game!

Additional credit to Chutney Glaze for help designing these and Jazzy666 for shaping their personalities by voicing them.

STICKERS FOR SALE!!

https://www.youtube.com/@53xy83457/store

First off, fuck YouTube and here's why-

https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxSqr3FPW13eeNum3nrYN0MHlk6j7tVTd7

Alright, you're caught up.

I was therefore perfectly happy to half-ass this, and just use the existing sprites, but me and @ChutneyGlaze got our wires crossed and he actually put effort into designing these adorable new... designs.

Let me know if you want them on a mug, t-shirt, etc. Planned to do that anyway but my browser kept crashing, computer's been acting up lately for some reason. At least I know I can't blame YouTube for that lol.

They WHAT!?

Feels kind of weird to shout myself out during one of these but if I don't, who will?

Season 2 (as it were) starting soon, join here if you like.

https://www.patreon.com/53xy83457

There was also my usual compilation from this time of year.

Also sharing this, it's something Chutney put together for shits and giggles. It's actually me from the future but this is kind of a coincidence as you'll soon see.

(portraits by @Nakvi)

What can I say, I run an above average number of fictional fighting leagues. Although recently, I've been spending a lot more time in someone else's.

Put together by @Calamancyy featuring art from other combatants in the OC arena (and Chutney again but he's used to me stealing credit from him by now.)

Already shared one of my fights last time. Here are some of the others-

Kinbari vs Mitch by @EmsDeLaRoZ

My response- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/1#bbspost27816965_post_text

Beck vs Damian by @Calamancyy (the one I showed last time)

My response- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/2#bbspost27817216_post_text

Curby also got into it with @HerrGammelig's The Chicken but they're all over the place, and she's kind of Curby the ant in them, so you might as well visit the links in my compilation instead.

(third fictional fight compilation of the post)

Speaking of which (specifically the ant part)-

Mitch vs Megadog by @SomeDoodles

My response- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/3#bbspost27818266_post_text

Damian vs Linzey by @rekt-conjo

My provocation- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/4#bbspost27819274_post_text

Jei (@Calamancyy) vs Marsha Law (me)

This one's by me but any excuse to share a shitpost.

Not even the first one for that particular kung fu catgirl.

Marsha also got a few a few gifs to celebrate the year of the dragon.

She defeated Betty to claim her title (I guess) from last year (see PPK compo above).

Alright, back to it-

Damian vs Megadog by @SomeDoodles

This one went on a while, believe it or not, so start at my response here- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/5#bbspost27820978_post_text

Or see our respective compilations.

@TheShokBlok did @StevSteelEn's OC, Cassie vs Jane Pain.

As I said, I've been meaning to show that cat a thing or two but I couldn't get the ears right. Same goes for a certain cute bunny lady, @Nebulate.

Yes, unless she's a chicken, of course.

Fighter classifications was next- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/6#bbspost27822650_post_text

My response- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/6#bbspost27822725_post_text

Then @riot100233 vs Damian (but my image allowance is running out)-

My response (not yet on compilation)-

https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/7#bbspost27824296_post_text

Their response-

https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/7#bbspost27825249_post_text

I did this which I forgot about- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/7#bbspost27825140_post_text

Precursor to which was already shout-out here- https://53xy83457.newgrounds.com/news/post/1410706

(glad to hear that was a month ago already, that's not upsetting at all)

Pachka vs Damian by @PachkaNG

"Damian OP so he won this:"

My response (between power outages as my house was blowing away)- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1531175/7#bbspost27826469_post_text

That's a brilliant Damian face btw. Forgot to say so amidst all the excitement.

And one last shitpost for good measure since people keep thinking @Calamancyy's Beck is a girl.

That's all from the arena for now but here's someone else I've been meaning to shout-out for a while.

@mahogare

@mahogare was taking prompts to draw witches and, you know me, I enjoy the occasional witch. My suggestion was, and you might want to sit down for this, martial-arts. The result was Susan here. I love Susan, she's adorable. Further details- https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1530071/2#bbspost27803184_post_text

Also just an odd curiosity but while un-doxxing someone on the last post, we managed to fuck up the comment counter. lol

Alright, back to our regularly scheduled shout-outs next time. Or it depends how many fights I get into between now and then, I suppose.
