Chapter 8-Page-11-The Foxx says
Jun17
I think it’s safe to say that Nikki broke up a very-likely brawl since Kyra and Sabrina have never gotten along and both of their attitudes in the situation. Though is it weird that Nikki chose to break it up rather than join her teammate in a potential Ultragirl beatdown?
Voting Incentive!
With the Sun and Sabrina drama over for now, let’s check on the other Upstart girls. Vote to check it out!
This is a good one! Thanks, Albone. You did well.
Yes he did but once again not what was expected.
Thanks, I try. 🙂
Good solution :).
Wonder why most people don’t like the idea of cooling off and waiting for a little bit. Given enough time most things work themselves out.
Nikki is pragmatic like that.
Love the layout!
But I swear I’m gonna time out those girls!
HA!
Freedom is now mine to do as I please!
*scamper*
Come back here you! Grrrr You can run; but you can’t hide, missy!
I found it interesting that not only did the group protect Sun but were wise enough to say chill to Sabrina and give it time.
Damage Inc prides themselves on using their heads…from time to time.
They could use it…as well as a few others ’round here. XD
You kinks what they say about cooler heads will prevail…it’s true in a moment like this one. 🙂
Do you think they can put Sun into an Anger Management Class?
Sun would flunk that class.
Sun doesn’t so much manage her anger as just escort it to the ring sometimes.
A calm, reasonable person? In Wrassling? WTF?
Suspension of disbelief is mandatory here, but come on! 😀
Yes it is like a Soap Opera at Rival Angels headquarters.
LOL, I know!

Not weird at all. Nikki’s the adult in the room at the moment. She’s perceptive enough to realize that whatever Sun’s temporary issues with Sabrina are, they’re just that; temporary.
Not to mention there’s evidence that Yvonne’s subtly trying to convince Sabrina to join Damage Inc. (Hiring people to look out for her in Japan, then sending Sun over when those people betray her.)
That’s what I was thinking. Aside from being emotionally uninvolved in this, Nikki knows that Yvonne considers Sabrina a long-term project and doesn’t want to do anything to alienate her. So Sabrina walks away thinking that not all of Damage Inc. are complete jerks, which makes Yvonne happy.
As an aside, Sabrina’s “Why are you being nice to me?” is a bit painful. All Nikki did was prevent her and Kyra from coming to blows. Really a bit worried about that girl if “not joining in taunting and/or assaulting you” is the bar to clear for kindness…
That is more a perspective from the ‘hood, isn’t it. But it might be a sign of the pressure she’s feeling and a touch of paranoia mixed in?
And she is wise enough to know that once Sun calms down she would be pissed to find out her friend got beat up.
Hard to argue with that.
I smell insincerity, but cooler heads do tend to prevail.
I smelled pee as in really pissed off!
or a cat box…
It did here…for now.
Wow. Someone at RA who acts like an adult. Who’da thunk?
I think I’ll resent that remark *pouts, tapping my foot*
She IS the Foxxies Woman Alive. It comes with a certain amount of respect. XD
Final comment:
“Sun hates a lot of people, places, and things…”
*snerk*
XD
well from the little we’ve seen of her i’ve had the impression that Nikki is the “wiser” non-Yvonne member of Damage Inc. Probably the second in command if i had to make my guess. Tags with Kyra to keep her under some kind of control so she doesn;t turn the entire locker room against Damage Inc by…being Kyra.
Nikki also has the wisdom to know that pissing off the friend of a Damager is likely to lead to tensions within Damage Inc that Damage Inc prefers to avoid. especially being that Darth Yvonne is still trying to turn Brina to the Damaging side of the force and if they lose Sun because kyra’s…Kyra, then so much for operation Dark Side Brina.
so now if i’m brina i see Damage Inc where 1) BFF-current with tensions to be worked out- Sun is there, 2) Nikki becomes seen as a reasonable sort who appreciates the Brina/Sun dynamic and isn’t willing to screw it up for either one (mostly sun but still it counts), 3) Yvonne has been cordial despite being turned down repeatedly due to her dark sided-ness, no back alley beatdowns from the Damagers. and 4) Kyra’s…Kyra. 3 out of 4 ain;t bad for a stable.
her fellow upstarts are all ticked off at her, her “BFF” from japan turned on her, Brina never really branched out to form bonds with the rest of the locker room like Xtina. so where does Ultragirl turn to in her time of need (cause they’ll be coming, oh yes they shall)? D’Inc doesn;t seem so horrible now does it Sabrina?
cues Imperial march
Nikki is definitely the XO of the group. If the Captain has the vision, the XO carries that vision out. Nikki subscribes to Yvonne’s adage that she never underestimates the power of loyalty when it’s not paid for.
Well I also recall Nikki and Kyra seeing Sabrina and Sun once and wondering why they don’t have that kind of friendship and chemistry as established tag team partners. Maybe they both, in their own way, are trying to preserve that for Ultradragon.
That is excellent that you remember that. 😉
See? What’d I tell you? Sun likes tough blondes! What’d’you think they were doing in there, anyway?
Seriously. Sun is a pimp.
Well…who doesn’t like tough blondes? XD
They kind of teamed up in this last battle, a little bit. But I’m guessing there will be more team ups after they make up.
I recommend making up over drinks. Because everything’s better when you’re drinking. 😛
I agree with the drinks is better….
Seems we know who the designated “Den Mother” of Damage Inc is
Yep, and she will not hesitate to put someone in the corner!
No one puts Ba, er, Sun in the corner!
I think Nikki realizes that you don’t fight unless it’s for money (or unless Yvonne tells you to, same thing). Also, it’s possible we have a good cop / bad cop routine here, to draw Sabrina into DI. After all, every stable needs 4 people: World Title, Midcard Title, Tag Title, right?
