[A : ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED???]

[Finally a system with some culture- gladiatorial games were totally a thing and Looma was quick to sign up. Fights weren't to the death, but honestly that wasn't new to Looma- Khoros had these things too, she'd even beaten up one of the more famous warriors- though she did tend to play a little rougher than most. Still, she was always careful to leave her opponents alive, if with skeletons or carapaces in considerably more pieces than when they entered the arena.

Naturally she's signed on for the Starstrikers, and they're fielding her regularly- sometimes alone, sometimes with partners for larger fights. Buuuuut definitely whenever they want to be extra sure of victory. Because the opponents quick enough to get out of the way every time she smashes the ground and sends slabs of stone jutting up out of the resulting fissure usually end up getting punched, thrown, or otherwise hammered through the debris for good measure.

Unsurprisingly, after regularly brutally pummeling her opponents into a nigh unrecognizable mess with her fists, her hammer, or (on at least two occasions) with other opponents, she's managed to become quite the team celebrity for this particular sport. Contrary to any sort of survival instinct though, catching her emerging from the arena after a match is easily the safest time to approach her- it turns out beating people up while the crowd cheers her on gets the four-armed battle princess in a really good mood. Go figure! Feel free to congratulate her, vow your team will win the day next time, or just generally take the chance to spend time with the Princess while she's positively jovial.]



[B: BUY SOMETHING WITH YOUR FACE ON IT!!!]

[To her credit no one can say Looma does not have team spirit. In fact, she has so much team spirit that a not-insignificant portion of her winnings are regularly blown on buying up team merchandise. Of her team, duh.

So it's not uncommon to catch her wandering around with shopping bags full of Starstrikers merchandise, and actively hurrying over to examine even more. And sometimes those are things with her face on them.]


OH! I HAVE MY OWN COLLECTIBLE!

[...it's basically just a trading card, and despite the way she's beaming proudly at it and treating it with the utmost reverence, there are literally thousands upon thousands of them. Available in most shops. Alongside the countless other cheap memorabilia for literally every other person for every team. But do you really have the heart to tell her that? Do you?!]


[C: BANNED FROM BEACH VOLLEYBALL]

[Okay she'd definitely initially gone to the beaches for relaxation and a little swimming- it's even better exercise when you're literally so dense and heavy you have to put in work just to stay above the surface. She even picked up an Official Starstrikers Licensed Two Piece (which is apparently a thing- a thing that had to be creatively altered for somebody with her size and extra arms, since a traditional halter doesn't work when you've got a second set of shoulders in the way)! But the Official Sport of Beaches always called to her before long.

And after destroying a few balls by spiking them over the net with a little too much enthusiasm, and maybe giving the occasional player a giant welt that's definitely gonna bruise (and badly), it's usually about ten minutes tops before absolutely no one is letting her join their games. So it's back to Plan A: relaxing or swimming.

And maybe angrily sulking at the volley-ban. As per usual, none of this utter misfortune is in any way tied to her own actions, so she clearly can't be held accountable for any of it.]



[D: WILD CARD]

[She's gonna be pretty busy in this system, so expect to see her just about anywhere. Anywhere except the colder places. Because who even likes those except that one guy proposing to her, maybe huh?

Her favorite stops are usually the desert locales, but it's not far fetched to see her on the other, warmer planets or moons as well! Among the more mundane possibilities: when not shopping for things with her face / her teammate's faces on them, she's also shopping for supplies. Because she wants for her and her crew to go as long as possible without having to resort to eating the protein goo, okay? And they go through a lot of food.]

[Sokka is absolutely not here to battle. He's done that already and he needs some time to heal from his injuries and reassess his battle plans. He also isn't here to support the Starstrikers, because screw those guys, he's a Waves guy through and through.

But he IS here to support Looma. He'd also struggle to admit it, but a part of him is worried one of these fools will actually beat her. Not that he's jealous or anything. Because he's not, obviously. And he knows it has to be all official-like. But still, he'll watch and cheer when she wins- because of course she wins. She's Looma Goddamn Red Wind.

After the battles are done, he'll head over to her with a smile and a wave.

I think that last guy actually cried as he was taken away.
