"What I do with all these losers? It's not a mean thing, by the way. I mean they literally lost to me. Though I guess it's easy to perceive it as a mean thing when you see them down there, struggling on their tippy toes to get past my ankles. How's the weather down there, huh?
Anyway, I don't know, it really depends. Sometimes, I just wish I could grow them back, cause I don't know what to do with all of them! I like to think of them as trophies. Reminds me of running track in high school. They're my breathing living medals! The first ones I keep. They've gotten used to being small and they don't bitch all day about "boohoo my old life, boohoo my family..." like the new ones do. Hey, if you play Draw and you've got something to lose, it's on you. I just play the game, I don't care that you can't control your ego.
Those are the most fun to play with though. The super confident ones? They always have that look before the match. I can tell. They also have a weird look after the match to be fair! These guys, I always play with. Like I'll drop them in a shoe after a run or something. You should hear them scream at me. Their tiny brains just cannot fathom that THEY, out of all people, are going to be dropped in some of MY sweaty sneakers. They do clean them pretty well though. After some... convincing.
I don't know what else to say. These days, if you lose against me, chances are you'll get fed to some stray cat or something. It's not mean, I just don't have space anymore!
Hey, shhh! Stop screaming like that, I'm talking. It's good for your back, don't worry about it.
Anyway, that's pretty much it. I mostly keep playing for the rush really. I'm the fastest thing around but you never know. With the state of the world out there? Pfff, someone faster than the wind might pop by and enjoy the look on my face for once. All those losers back home... with no one to drop them crumbs anymore... Just kidding, they basically eat dirt already, they'd be fine.
So? Wanna play? Feeling lucky tonight? Never know. Today might be the day you bring lil ol' me down... C'mon. One game."
Have a bit more Neon! I don't know, I think she's neat :)
I've had fun making these quickies over the past few days, trying to figure out how her personality would adapt to a world where size difference is possible. That's the thing with already existing characters - you have to take into account what they're like and add a size to it. If you rewrite them completely, it's just weird.
I hope you enjoy this new piece!
