Tari and Meggy were at an arcade, a place they went sometimes to just relax. Being a professional gamer, Tari was well known by the staff and they tended to let her get away with minor rule breaking.
In a less descriptive sense, she was a regular.
Meggy didn't find these visits as entertaining as her girlfriend. It just isn't what she grew up with. However she still had fun alongside Tari. After all, the more she found ways to enjoy it, the more time she could spend with her waifu in blue.
She always enjoyed seeing the smile on her face, the front of her body glowing in the light of the machines, and her large focused eyes starting blissfully into the screen.
Unfortunately, those aren't permanent....
Tari had just beat the high score on Donkey Kong, smirking proudly to herself. As if beating a high score was normal to her.
Well...happiness and pride were normal...until she discovered a new emotion...
A fire-headed girl with a retro vest, black shirt, and black tights.
She gave the bluejay a lengthy stare that induced a fiery hatred.
Tari looked at her with an evil eye, having previous beef with her.
Meggy noticed the stare of hatred, curiously wanting to hear the context. "Uh...and who might you be?"
"My name is Belle. Belle Fontiere." The girl smirks. "Tari, fancy seeing you again."
"Hello...Belle." Tari continues her mood.
"I see you brought your...princess charming?" She asks.
"For your information she is not a princess, she is a Queen." Tari crosses her arms.
"Oh really? Of what?" Belle grins. "You already hold the title of queen of video games in this place...speaking of which...."
Belle pushes Tari over and starts playing, trying to beat her high score.
Tari, being weaker in comparison, fell onto the floor, sitting up and giving her another red hot glare.
Meggy helped up her girlfriend before going to confront the woman, who was even taller than Tari.
"Hey, if your gonna be competitive, can you not through her onto the ground?" Meggy asks with a harsh tone.
"If I wanted to listen to a spineless jackass I'd rip out your spine and ask you some shit." Belle replied.
This only angered Tari more. How dare she talk to her girlfriend like that.
"That's not nice of you. We're civil adults- well...teenagers- but still. We are civil people and we should treat one another as such." Meggy crosses her arms.
"If you want to be civil, go and play another game. Professional gamers don't have time for people like you. It's amazing you even got with Tari. I expected better for her." Belle shrugs, continuing to play. "Just how we work"
Tari had it to her breaking point. You can insult her gaming, but never will she let anyone insult her girlfriend.
"Hey! Say that to my face too, Firewhore!" Tari growls, coming up with the first words on her mind.
"Firewhore? That's all you can come up with? Not anything creative?" Belle asks. "Your a pro gamer, not a fifth grader who just learned what a prostitute was."
Tari's eyes were twitching, the left eye (from her perspective) starting to go blue
Meggy slowly stepped back, thinking things were gonna get bad, very bad.
Tari put her finger on Belle's chest. "Say one more thing...I dare you.""Your girlfriend is a squid...your dating a pet." Belle chuckles.
Tari inhaled deeply, smiling and staring into the distance.
This confused both Meggy and Belle, seeing her sudden happy demeiner.
Tari slowly lifted her hand, creeping Belle and Meggy out a little. The only things she was doing was blinking, breathing, and raising her hand.
After a few moments, Tari grabs a harsh grip of Belle's head and slams it into the arcade buttons. She slowly pulls her hands off her head and walks back over to Meggy.
"OW-" Belle yells angrily, obtaining a nosebleed and bruised eye from the impact.
"C'mon Meggy...let's go home. We can play a Mario 64 multiplayer ROM hack together..." Tari slowly holds Meggy's hand.
Belle grabs Tari's hand on her way out, looking pissed. "What the fuck was that..."
"No one calls my girlfriend a pet...she's my girlfriend...I don't care what she is. I love her." Tari declares.
"Oh really? Then why don't you fight for it...true gamer style....after all....your so dedicated to this...animal you call a girlfriend." Belle rolls her eyes.
"You want a fight?" Tari hisses "well here's a fight!"
Tari proceeds to kick Belle in her genitalia, knocking her onto her feet. She smirks and looks down at her "Passez une bonne journée et allez vous faire foutre." She starts walking away with Meggy.
"Uh...Tari...what did you say to her?" Meggy asks.
"Just look it up Meggy." Tari chuckles.
"Alright..." Meggy quickly translates it "....oh. Fitting."
Tari slowly sits the two of them by a tree right outside the arcade. One side of the tree was illuminated by the arcade lights while the other was illuminated by the sunset.
"I really wanted to beat the daylights out of her..." Tari admits.
Meggy looked surprised "but...why?"
"She called you a pet. A pet. No one calls my lady a pet. The woman I gave my entire life to...is relegated to the label of something that other humans put on a leash? I ain't taking that shit as a joke, sweetie..." Tari explains.
"But...we do use leashes" Meggy replies.
"Not in that way. But if she's gonna label you as nothing but a pet, she's not gonna meet a nice Tari. She can be my gaming rival all she wants, but as soon as she insults my squiddy...it's game over. No lives left they're done for. I am the boss bottle." Tari nods.
"I...thank you." Meggy chuckles, blushing. "It's nice to be reminded that we're both protective..."
"Well...you changed and helped my life...I'll help yours...one little bit at a time...." Tari whispers
The two share a small kiss under the tree, leaving Belle to curl up in pain inside the arcade.
