A few weeks after the destruction of the Ladies' Good Men, and a week after the final fight with the Kijin, Dido tightens her grip on the controls, eyes narrowed, teeth bared.
"I can't give up now!" She declares. "I won't despair! If I stand by justice, and keep moving forward, a way will open up! I know it will–Aw Fudge! Fudge! C'mon! Fudge! That combo's broken! This boss is OP! Cheap! Hax!"
On the arcade game's screen, Dido's Qipao-wearing character twitches helplessly in the throes of hit-stun, then flies back across the stage. "K.O.!". The boss character, clad in a sharp business suit and fish-crested gladiator helmet, folds his arms and laughs."Pathetic! You're ten years too early to beat me!".
Dido's bloodshot eyes twitch. "I'll wipe that grin off your face!" She shouts, fishing quarters from her pocket.
For god's sake, someone drag her away!

"Yo, 'Zuki!" Dido pops up on your tablet screen, shadows under her eyes, a grease stain on her chin. "Could I ask you for a favor?"

[Private chat, sent to Ken, Hetepheres, Sarah and Peola]
Dido pops up on your tablet screens, looking chipper and extremely energized. "I challenge you to hand-to-hand mecha combat!"

She glances around, then leans in and whispers. "I've set up a new control scheme on ShelLancer that might help with that, but it needs testing. Do you think you could help?"

Re: 3
[Ken rolls his shoulders, before gesturing for Dido to lead on.]
Is it based off ScarleTiger's controls, or...?

Re: 3
After a time skip, ShelLancer and ScarleTiger are outside in the airfield facing each other.
"Alright...I guess we start?" Dido muses."Right...Now!!" ShelLancer, in its humanoid form, crouches and charges toward ScarleTiger with its Shell boost, jabbing out with a low punch.

Re: 3
[ScarleTiger leaps just as the punch comes in... and then extends its feet so that it pretty much stands on the arm.]
And far too simple!
[It soon leaps over ShelLancer with a flip, hitting the floor with its hands - where it then spins to try and sweep Dido's legs!]
