Flower Power
Okay. In Weiß Kreuz, the Weiß boys get individual Image Flowers, while the Schwarz guys get what I've coined as 'Nifty Powers.' This doesn't seem fair to me, as the powers seem MUCH more useful than the flowers. So I've set up a little test to see which truly IS better.
Battle One:
Ran Fujimiya, armed with the mighty rose!
Bradley Crawford, armed with his clairvoyance!
"BEGIN!"
Ran: Shi-ne!!! *Runs at Crawford, Rose stem brandished violently, complete with thorns*
Crawford: *Having a vision of Ran trying to poke him with the flower stem, steps to the side*
Ran: Ngh! *Falls, lands on the flower stem, impaling himself* X_x
Tally:
Image Flowers: 0
Nifty Powers: 1
Battle Two:
Ken Hidaka, armed with a potted Gentian!
Farfarello and his painless, 'hurt god-ness'!
"BEGIN!"
Ken: *holds the potted plant over his head*
Farfie: Killing flowers hurts god! *rushes at Ken* "YIYIYIYIIIIIII"
Ken: *breaks the pot on Farfie's head*
Farfie: *giggle* That hurt God!
Ken: *sweatdrops*
Farfie: *picks up the flower and eats it*
Ken: *backs away slowly*
Farfie: After you kill the flower... Kill the FLOWER BOY! *charges ken*
Ken: AAAAAH! *runs*
Tally:
Image Flowers: 0 (+1 for hurting God)
Nifty Powers: 2
Battle Three:
Yohji Kudou, armed with a bunch of Cattleya!
Schuldig, the telepath with lightning speed!
"BEGIN!"
Yohji: Who cares if you can beat me. I'll get the girls with my flowers. ^_^
Schuldig: *smirk* *Telepaths a message to the horde of girls waiting outside* // Yohji's in his underwear! //
*Horde of girls rushes and breaks down door*
Schuldig: *uses his speed to jump out of the way*
Yohji: *Gets plowed down, flower petals flying*
*Girls pout and run off*
Yohji: X_x
Schuldig: *Takes a flower petal, and sticks it on Yohji's forehead* *Steals a cigarette from the unconscious playboy and walks off laughing*
Tally:
Image Flowers: 0 (+1 for hurting god.)
Nifty powers: 3 (+1 for getting a cigarette)
Concussions: 1
Heartbroken Girls: 50.
Doctor's Bills and Repair to the Door: $500
Battle Four:
Omi Tsukiyono, armed with a bunch of cheery Freesia!
Nagi Naoe, the kid who can 'float stuff'!
"BEGIN!"
Omi: Nagikun, would you like a flower?
Nagi: *floats the flowers out of Omi's hands and leaves them in midair*
Omi: Hey! I need one of those for Ouka!
Nagi: *slams Omi against a wall and knocks him out*
Omi: X_x
Nagi: *floats the flowers over to himself* These will be nice for Tot! *grins happily and walks off*
Tally:
Image Flowers: 0 (+1 for hurting God, +3 for getting Nagi a kiss on his hot date with Tot)
Nifty Powers: 3 (+1 for getting a cigarette, +3 for GETTING the flowers to get that kiss)
Concussions: 2
Battle Five:
FINAL SHOWDOWN:
Angry fangirls, who don't NEED weapons!
Schwarz. Will their 'Nifty Powers' save them now?
"BEGIN!"
While Crawford is busy hauling Ran's body away, he gets bowled over by angry Ran fans.
While Farf is chasing Ken, he gets sick from eating the flowers, and the Ken fans jump him and hurt God GOOD.
Schu is surrounded by Brad x Schu fangirls, who were paid off by the Yohji fangirls, and think of nothing but Brad x Schu, which drives the German insane.
Nagi fangirls jump Tot and rearrange her face. Omi fangirls get in a slapping fight with Nagi fangirls.
Overall Tally:
Fangirls kick ass. O.o
Lesson to be learned:
Image flowers suck, but nifty powers are useless against angry fangirls.
End Result:
Ran is presumed dead, but we learn that he was only pretending. Faking it must run in his family.
Ken is unscathed.
Yohji and Omi are bruised, and comforted by earlier said fangirls.
Crawford is in a body cast.
Farfie won't be hurting God for a loooooong while.
Nagi kills himself after Tot's funeral. Nagi fangirls mourn.
Schuldig is driven insane by the hentai fangirl thoughts of him and Brad, ending up as a sleazy romance novelist, after extensive psychotherapy, making money off the all the ideas that the fangirls forced into his mind.
SUB-Final Score:
Numbers suck.
FINAL SCORE:
This author has way too much free time.
