Alright. I get what you mean. I just have to go back to the basics, eh? Sounds easy enough!
One question, though.
Spit it out and leave me alone. I'm busy being an introvert.
Wuzzat?
You can't take it.
Wh-- I didn't even--
You think I don't know you? Sorry, but you'll have better luck elsewhere.
Exit. Now.
...
Huh. She didn't even hesitate. Not bad...
...But still too naive.
I assume you're familiar with the RPG genre?
Yeah. I've played my fair share of Phantasy Online. Little bit 'a FFVII here n' there.
Then you know how one gets stronger.
Of course! By levelin' up!

But the stronger you get... the harder it is to level up. That's why you gotta work harder n' harder to get stronger!
Yes. And the same is often true in real life, too. You train to get stronger, but the stronger you are, the more difficult it is to proceed further.
Yeah, yeah... just what are you trying 'ta say!?
I'm saying that from what has happened, your growth has become stagnant. While it's true you often fight people around your paygrade, either the results are inconclusive... or you access a power that lets you outclass the enemy entirely.
And when neither of those things happen, you're fighting something or someone that is roughly on-par with you instead--
HOW IS STICKING TO MY STATUS AS A RUNT GOING TO HELP ME!?
...I'll give you an explanation even an idiot could comprehend. By sticking to your Tiny State, you have essentially retained your 'level' lowered your stats. Although, your strength, speed, endurance-- inferior to your normal self...
But what's also inferior... is the amount of EXP required to level up. Meaning that while it'll be difficult winning as well as getting stronger... you'll gain an even larger jump in power compared to your regular self.

...
...D'awww, you're just a little dork, aren't you?
I am a scary witch that knows 18 different ways to send you into an eternal hellfire.
...Fear.
Huh!?
Whatever that mysterious guy was saying, they were right. What exactly is stopping you so from achieving all the power you will ever need forever? You've already worked off your garlic limitations.
. . .
...You got it wrong, missy! I ain't afraid 'a nothing! Especially my own powers!
Then there's nothing stopping you from solving any problem instantaneously?
Ngh... Grrr... Ya know, you've got some nerve for a brat!
Maybe I'm a brat physically. But mentally, I've made it to a level of maturity that's unheard of compared to someone like you.
...I don't--
...
...I don't know what you're talkin' about. You know what? Whatever! I'll just find some way to get myself back to normal!
You know, if you really insist that your low-brow "transformation" is too high-standard to fight this so called Shake King with, there is another way.
...Huh?
The key to gaining the power you seek... is in your Tiny form.
....*bruh.mp4*
Okay, yeah, fine. I trespassed onto your home. Fair enough. I got one question for you...
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO MAKE ME THIS SMALL!?
SEE!? EVEN MY TITLE CARD HAS SHRUNK!
Because I'm not about to deal with any of your shenanigans. Every time you come here, you bring misfortune along with you. I figured the smaller the Wario, the smaller the incident. And besides...
...On the off chance that you're a fake, I can't take any precautions.
...
Hmph!
Why is it that you've crash landed here of all places, anyway?
...So I was pounding this red eyed, gold and navy blue wearing freak, right? And he said...
...Grrrr! Curse that Handsome, Muscular, Stud Muffin Wario! My Evil Plans 101 For Dummies book has failed me!
This is the end of the line for you, bub! Now, face the wrath of Justice Incarnate! WAAAAAAA--
(Blast it! That confounded Wario's gonna beat my ugly ass into a pulp if I don't scram this in instant! I gotta get outta here!)
...An' so I made my way here! Awesome, eh!?
...That sounds totally fabricated.
It totally isn't!
...
...First Wario... then the world. I will show them all. I will show them all that they are to Tremble Before the Shake King.
...
MMPH-MMMRPGGHH! MMMHH MHH MRRRPPHHHH! MMMTHHHHR-HMPHHHRR!
GAAAH! STUPID! I'LL SHOW THAT DUMB FANTASY WORLD LOOKING MOTHER-- Eh? Where the hell am I?
Where you're in is a whole lot of trouble if you don't explain how and why you just crashed through my Mansion.
Hmm. This shouldn't be possible... though it is a very poggers addition to our assets.
Urgh-- Oh god. I almost threw up for a minute there. Please. Never use that slang ever again.
What? Is my terminology not based?
...Excuse me for a moment.
Unbelievable.
You've made it. Good for you!
Enough games. What are your intentions!?
..............
Survival of the fittest.
IT'S OVER 9,000!!!! EXCEPT NOT REALLY!!! BECAUSE THAT'S A MISTRANSLATIOOON!!!
...Wow. No one really got that reference?
I'VE GOT AN OUTDATED REFERENCE FOR YOU! LEEROOOOOOOOOOOY!!!!--
Oh, adorable; But far too predictable.
OH MY GOD! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA....
WARIOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
He was never the planning sort. Then again, he's survived a lot worse.
We gonna hafta rescue him?
I doubt it. Look down.
....Do I know you? I think I know this chump.
Nyeh, his voice sounds kinda... familiar.
Hey now, why so eager to rejog your memories? You should be enjoying the slice of life. You're running on barlowed time, after all.
I think he's right. If he wanted to do something bad, he probably would've.
Or he's-a-waiting for you to let our guards down.
Nonsense. You have my word I will not attack any of you. I'm simply curious... about this little dynamic you all have going.
WAKA-WAKA. (Dynamic?)
W-WHA!?
For instance, you. You've gained a great deal of power via your own rigorous training. Power that I respect. Although in your current state you are inferior to your nemesis... your alter-ego far surpasses him.
In the blink of an eye, anyone you dislike here could go poof. You could instantly gain all the power you could ever need. And yet, no offfense--...
You spend your time mingling with the likes of these folk. Like you are in any way reliant on them.
Is it that your time here has softened you? That your avarice and overall nature has dulled since you've met them? Or maybe--
You're afraid to take all that power, all that strength-- Living in constant fear of such control?
...
Again. No offense. No intentful harm done.
*ROAR* (Who are you?)
I am the Dragon Warrior. The Kung-Fu Master.
...Oh god. He's already in my head.
Mine too.
Ya know where your definitions of what is and isn't pretty can stick it!?
Nope. Where would they go!?
...How did you even get here?
With all do respect, I don't think you have the right to ask that question.
So, here's the plan: We find the bad guy. I punch the bad g--
Wario. I hate to interrupt you. But I don't think punching everything that moves is a 100% viable strategy anymore.
What? Since when!?
You aren't fooling anyone. Waluigi was there when they fought Rudy.
I mean, I was there when you guys fought Katsini and Carlton.
And there was that time where you got mollywhopped by Shake King.
Wouldn't Janemba have killed all of you guys if we didn't sap him of all his strength?
. . .
Okay, what could've done this? Some kinda space rock, or...?
Intruders are approaching.
.........Run footage.
Running footage.
--we'll kick the crap out of his smug little face!
But then things might get even more out of hand.
Do I look like I care? I'm actually somewhat hoping they do! My fists are getting really numb from all of the, oh, i dunno-- lack of face-punching going on?
And if things go from bad to worse? this idiot deserves it! He could use a couple rounds of misfortune coming his way, too!
...Oh. On god!?
Assuming things ever get to that point, anyway. Not like it'll ever happen, though.
(This... this is all too much to process.)
I'll be back. I just need--
I asked you a question. Where are you going?
...It's nothing. I just need some time a--
YOU IDIOT!
...What?
What are we to you!? Do you even think of us as friends!? Are you even OUR friend!? You and refer to us as a team, but when the going gets tough, you pretend we don't exist!
Do you know how any of us felt when you died inside MKII!? And still after all of that you haven't learned to at least rely on us!? If you don't like us, then at least have enough respect to tell us to our faces!

...

...
(I'll make a mental note not to get on his bad side...)
(...Yup. This may've been a not-so-good idea. Just gonna leave now while I have the chance...)
(...And I know just the place to.)
Fantastic. Right when I was beginning to think things were turning around.
So, about those explosives...
guh... no fair, that was a cheap shot, rmuh... give rematch...
Ugh... okay, so what was that?
Uh... I don't think so--
Heh heh heh... Bullseye.
