It's Fictional Throwdown Friday!

This Week's Fighters...

Ruphire vs Rosemary!

Conditions:

Speed Equalized. Garnet starts the fight unfused. Pre-Rainbow Drinker Kanaya is used, but she is allowed to come back as one if killed. Rose is not Grimdark or God Tier.

Scenario:

Ruby and Sapphire happen to be going on a date at the same place Rose and Kanaya are. The two couples strike up conversation, but when Kanaya mentions how much she loves her "diamond", or moirail, Ruby takes it the wrong way and punches her, starting a brawl.

Right off the bat, I'm going to apologize for posting this before the polls finished. When I saw the "week" option on the poll creator, I was thinking school week, I intended for the results to be in by now and that just didn't happen. I'll add those results to this post when the poll actually ends.

Analysis: Garnet

To anyone in the audience who is currently in a stable relationship: how did it feel to fall in love? What was it like to look at someone and realize that you want to spend the rest of your life with them? Because today's combatants know first hand that love is strong enough to change your life, and your future, forever.

Thousands of years ago, long before nearly all of human history would come to pass, the Earth was visited by the genocidal Gem Empire, headed by the Great Diamond Authority. Mankind would've been wiped out right there, if not for the revolution of Rose Quartz. Faced with a genuinely capable opponent for the first time in its history, Blue Diamond herself was forced to go to Earth to confront the threat directly. With her, she took a seemingly insignificant Ruby and Sapphire, completely unaware as to how the events that transpire there will change their lives forever.

Blue Diamond had intended to use Sapphire's precognitive abilities to outwit Rose Quartz and indeed, Sapphire did forsee a future where exactly that happened. The problem is, that future relied on her being put in harms way, and Ruby would not have that. Just as Sapphire was about to be struck down, Ruby lunged in to save her, inadvertently fusing with Sapphire in the process.

Thus was the fusion known as Garnet born. Of course, Blue Diamond would never show mercy towards an "off-color" fusion, so Garnet had little choice but to sign up with Rose Quartz's rebellion. Since then, she's become the defacto leader of the Crystal Gems, following Rose Quartz's death, saving the world alongside her two fellow surviving rebels, Amethyst and Pearl.... and Steven.

Individually, Ruby and Sapphire are among two of the weakest gems out there. Sapphire is an aristocrate not built for direct combat, while Ruby is a disposable foot soldier. Despite that, both of them are still clearly superhuman. Sapphire herself is strong enough to hit a baseball into the atmosphere, parting the nearby clouds with a force equivalent to 485 tons of tnt. And Ruby should be easily comparable to if not superior than her, being an actual soldier.

Source:

Moreover, their abilities, while basic by gem standards, are still far above an average humans. They have all the basics (hard light bodies, can only be destroyed by breaking their gemstone, automatically adjusts to gravity, etc), as well as a few unique perks. Sapphire, for example, can freeze things on contact and even create winter storms, while Ruby's fire and heat can vaporize an entire pool in seconds. Scaling to other rubies, she should be capable of withstanding extreme heat as well, such as Navy tanking atmospheric re-entry.

Of course, they truly shine when they're fused together as Garnet, taking all of their abilities and increasing them exponentially. For example, Sapphire's future vision only saw one possible timeline, which meant that her visions aren't always accurate and can be thrown off by outside factors she can't possibly know about. Like, well, Ruby. Garnet's future vision, however, gives her a whole sea of possible futures, allowing her to steer the ship, as it were, and try and guide herself towards the best possible outcome. It's still not perfect, she's precognitive, not omniscient, and it can still be thrown off by outside factors she simply doesn't know about.

Moreover, she's easily far stronger than Ruby and Sapphire combined, capable of breaking Peridot's escape pod in half with ease. The same escape pod that survived atmospheric re-entry, generating a kinetic energy of over 142 kilotons in the process.

Source:

And that's on top of being able to no-sell lightning, fire her gauntlets like a homing rocket, and even conduct electricity through her hands.

All that said, she's not unstoppable. As a fusion, Garnet basically is the relationship between Ruby and Sapphire, and a major blow to their relationship can unfuse her. And, as a result of being fused all the time, Sapphire and Ruby can be rather codependent at times, needing to literally put their heads together to solve more seriously problems or realize when they've screwed up.

Still, Garnet's one the Crystal Gems' heaviest hitters. Even if she's not the strongest, she's easily Stronger Than You.

Analysis: Rosemary

So, who was the first crush you had when you were younger? A classmate maybe? Or maybe something more... fantastical? There is most definitely a demographic of teens who have crushes on monsters and magical creatures, so what was yours? A vampire? An alien?

Well, Rose Lalonde is not your average teenager. Why have a crush on an alien or a vampire when you can date someone whose both?

On the surface, you'd be forgiven for thinking Rose Lalonde and Kanaya Maryam would never even meet. One is an alien troll from a colonialism empire while the other is a young girl with a love for psychology and eldritch horror. But, fate finds a way. See, when Kanaya and her friends play a little game called SGRUB, they wound up creating the human universe that Rose and her friends live in. The team's leader, Karkat, was so enraged by the comfy life style that the humans led, that he commanded all his friends to harass them over the internet.

Well, I say commanded. Karkat didn't really have any of the respect or authority necessary to do that, so most of his friends just ignored him. This did, however, get Kanaya and Rose to start talking to each other and the two hit it off pretty well from there. What certainly helped was, due to the time space fuckery of Paradox Space, Kanaya had been reading about how Rose's SBURB playthrough long before she ever met Rose, so she did hold a certain amount if respect for her going in.

As Kanaya watched Rose progress on her journey, their relationship deepened and eventually blossomed into something more.

As people who were predestined to play SBURB, Rose and Kanaya excel far beyond the norm of their species. Firstly, both of them are immensely superhuman, even relative to other trolls. Not only can both fight building sized monsters with ease, but they were both able to survive being born as SBURG Players in the first place. See, when SBURB Players are born, they're actually cloned in a lab, before being sent to their home planets on the backs of meteors as infants. Rose's meteor in particular hit with enough force to complete annihilate the Crocker Corp building, roughly 567 tons of TNT.

Source:

And, as players of a video game, they both have a video game style leveling system and inventory. The Echeladder allows them to level up by fighting or even just by doing random things, ensuring that they'll always be getting faster and stronger all the time. Meanwhile, their Specibus gives them a hammerspace inventory that lets them store a wide array of fantastical items and weapons on them at all times and pull them out of absolutely nowhere.

In Rose's corner, we have two knitting needles, which she has tied to string so she can use them as a pair of makeshift whips, hooks, and chains like a 13 year old lesbian Kratos. She'd later enhance these with straight up magic to turning them into razor sharp magic wands, allowing her to caste giant death beams, fly, and curse pieces of technology to explode even when they're in a completely different universe. And in Kanaya's corner, we have a tube of lipstick that transforms into a giant chainsaw. Perfect for all your imp slaughtering and fish gutting needs.

And as SBURB Players, they both have, or rather, had access to Sprites. Summonable helpers ment to guide Players through SBURG as vaguely as possible, these glowing orbs absorb anything and anyone who touches them for too long, taking on all their attributes and combining their minds. These critters can go intangible at will and freely fly, as well as use all the powers of whatever they've absorbed. Kanaya's sprite died long before she ever met Rose, but Rose can still summon hers with the Pendant that all Players get after reaching a certain level on the Echeladder. This gives Rose access to Jaspersprite.... Jasper as in her cat, not the Steven Universe lady.

Their deadliest tool does not come from their SBURB weapons, however. It comes from Kanaya's biology. If Kanaya dies, she will come back to life as a Rainbow Drinker, an alien vampire! As a Rainbow Drinker, Kanaya is completely immune to Alternia's blistering sun, which otherwise incinerates any troll that steps in its sun light, and becomes strong enough to kick Gamzee Makara in the nuts so hard he goes flying fifty feet.

Gamzee is considerably stronger than Sollux, as he did more damage to the Black King in one attack than Sollux could do with a constant barrage. Sollux was powerful enough to redirect meteors just as big as, if not bigger than the one that crushed Jade's island, which had a kinetic energy of 3 exatons of tnt. After all, The Reckoning throws bigger meteors the longer it goes on, and this meteor was an early one in the barrage. By this scaling chain, Rainbow Drinker Kanaya should be immensely stronger than said meteor.

Source:

Of course, this power couple isn't invincible. Kanaya can be a bit of a doormat at times, someone who struggles to confront her friends on their issues or behavior. Rose, meanwhile, has a lot of pent up emotional trauma stemming from her drunken mother, which would result in her resorting to alcholism later in life.

Despite this, though, Rose and Kanaya are Homestuck's original power couple. May the Horrorterrors have mercy on your soul.

Throwdown Mashup:

Throwdown Breakdown:

This is a fairly complex matchup with a lot of moving parts to it, so let's dissect this.

I think it's pretty open shut that Rose and Kanaya beat Ruby and Sapphire. While the Gems are considerably more skilled and experienced, Rosemary is stronger and more varied, and they'll only be getting even stronger as the fight progresses. And while Gems can always just come straight back from most substantial injuries, I don't think they'll be abled to come back from inside a Sylladex. After all, Rose and Kanaya come from a video game world where enemies disappear and drop gem like loot all the time, their first instinct would probably be to pick it up.

Garnet is a different story though. Fusing into Garnet is likely to be one of the first things Ruphire would do in any serious fight scenario and she is much too strong for Rosemary to straight up hurt. One kiloton is one thousands tons, so she's literally thousands of times stronger.

Granted, Rainbowdrinker Kanaya is even stronger (that meteor calc is stronger than where most calcs put the Diamonds mind you, let alone Garnet), but that would require Kanaya to die and she won't. Garnet would just lightly tap her on the head to knock her out, it's completely against her character to kill someone and she has enough control and discipline to not do so accidentally. The problem is Rose.

Simply put, Rose can fly. Garnet can't. And while Garnet has ranges options, being in the air gives Rose infinite directions with which to dodge her rocket fists and shapeshifting, as well as the range to just stay out of her reach entirely. If she can cast curses from universes away, she can fly back however far she needs to. And while she can't directly hurt Garnet back, she does still have a win condition. Jaspersprite.

While Garnet is strong enough to knockout tao Jaspersprite too, she'd have a hell of a time doing that to something that can phase right through her fists. And if she ever does make contact, she runs the risk of unwittingly becoming GarJaspersprite. Which is something that she wouldn't know about and her future vision wouldn't predict because she doesn't know anything like Sprites exists, similar to how she got hit by Jasper's (the gem, not the cat) destabilization weapon because she didn't know what it was and her future vision didn't warn her.

So Garnet is defeated by forced fusion. The cruel irony is laid on thick. I guess this time Jasper was Stronger Than You.

This Throwdown's Winner is...

Rosemary!
