Urgent Reader Poll - Aestelle Nocte Chapter 4 (Part 2)

[MFontana]

I've just released Aestelle Nocte Chapter 4 (Part 1), and with how the chapter ends, I've got a quick 'urgent' multi-layered poll for all of you who are reading it, as well as any readers that might want to get in on the shenanigans.
Here's a quick rundown. Two of the characters (Isabel and Dani) got into an argument, and put things aside until after lunch because Tobias had offered a solution to their differences. Sorting them out with some PvP.

This poll has multiple layers, the main poll (for the game), and the sub-layers are questions you can answer in the comments here.
Question 1) Who do you want to win the PvP matches? (Isabel, or Dani)
Question 2) What character(s) should they pick for the games?

Due to the urgent nature of this poll, it closes in three days. Happy voting everyone. [You can pick your top three favorites for the games; and for the 'Gundam -VS- / Endless Duel' entry, the characters are Pilot/Mech).

I've also included the relevant scene snippet here as well that leads into Part 2.

Spoiler: Chapter 4 Ending Scene

"A little PvP. Player, vs, Player." He said calmly, gesturing back toward the living room, and the reasonably large flatscreen tv, one hooked up to a multitude of gaming consoles through the veritable spiderweb of cables behind it. "This way, you can fight it out, and nobody leaves with blood on their hands, or clothes."

"Fucking... Nerd." Dani shot back with a hearty snicker but nodded when she and Isabel locked gazes briefly.

"He may be a nerd..." Isabel started, only to self-correct."No. He's definitely a nerd. But he's not wrong. So, how's that supposed to work, Tobias?" She added when they both locked eyes with him once again.

"Simple. You both decide on a game, and terms. Then you fight it out, or otherwise compete, in the game under the terms you set, while an unbiased judge arbitrates if needed. Fighting games are just the easiest, since wins are wins, and losses are losses, and you can literally kick the shit out of each other in them."

For the first time since landing on Earth, Jaeyla too, seemed excited by the prospect of where the exchange seemed to be going, her amber eyes shining with a hint of her own mischievous nature.

"Fuck it. I'm in. Let's go!" Dani spoke up first, shooting a challenging glare Isabel's way.

"Damn straight, but I'm gonna kick your ass before we're through!" Isabel shot back, before they both turned toward Tobias.

"Fighting Game. You pick." They said in unison while rising from the table and storming off into the living room with eager smiles on their faces.

So far the poll is really close.
We've got 3 votes for Dead or Alive, 2 votes for almost everything else, 1 for Tekken and Melty Blood, and 0 for the Gundam-vs- / Endless Duel one. No real surprise there.
The poll ends in about 12 hours (tomorrow, 2am), so if you're going to cast a vote, you might want to hurry.
Also, since there haven't been any comments here about who wins, or what characters they use, I'll just be improvising that in the story itself.

I've also received a few requests from my beta readers to include some non-fighting games for them to compete in. As a result, I'm going to be including another game in the roster of games the group play.
Mario Kart.
It may not be the most accurate rendition of the game itself, but I hope it will be entertaining to read.

Last call for votes and comments on this thread.
It closes in about 40 minutes now, and then we'll have our final results.
As of the last check, Mortal Kombat and Dead or Alive are both tied in the lead at 3 votes each.

Poll is closed.
We have a tie between Dead or Alive and Mortal Kombat. and since no comments were left about who should use which characters, or who should win, I'll improvise from there.
Thanks to everyone who voted.
