Pit proves Palutena's hubris

"Say... Lady Palutena. I wouldn't be so sure you can stop everything with that counter. I have a reflector too and it doesn't work all the time," Pit pointed out, crossing his arms skeptically.

"Ha ha... Silly Pit. We all know your reflector isn't a divine reflector like mine. You can't rely upon it so fully," Palutena scoffed softly, shaking her head, the picture of serene superiority.

The angel was beginning to get a bit annoyed. His eyebrows lowered and a wide frown crossed his face as he again acknowledged that sometimes, it's better to stay asleep and dream of a perfect goddess. "So you can bring it up at a moment's notice, huh?" he asked, wearing a sympathetic frown now, for whatever reason.

"Why yes. It's harder for you to summon your wings than it is for me to summon my-"

A stream of brilliant comets shot across the sky, gold in color, sparkling. A tail of white followed each one... a flag, or possibly a banner. That wasn't quite right... the comets were arrows, fired from the bow Pit had produced, and the banners were the fabric from the heavenly raiment Palutena was so proud of. The goddess sat on the side of Pit's bed, still smiling in that haughty way, but now dressed in a white chest wrap with a tiny, gold-metal emblem like two wings forming a buckle at its center. Her lower body was covered by a thin band around the waist, red in color, with a short white front and back cloth.

Soon, her face became pretty red in color itself. Palutena jumped to her feet, crossing both her staff and her shield across her bare midriff, while Pit stared with saucer eyes at his own handicraft. "Pit... Pit! That's not just rude, it's lewd! That's not just lewd, it's heresy! You just committed literal heresy!"

"Uh huh, yeah. A-And you didn't? You lied to me! You've been slacking off so much in your training, you didn't even raise your shield!"

"Bwuuuuh?! Excuse me, Pit? You have the luck of a goddess- me- but I can take it away just as easily!" Palutena swore, now raising both her shield and her staff. She tried to look like a mature lady... unaffected by the fact that she now stood in a boy's room in her underwear, solely because she had talked too tough. "I'll show you what I mean. Fire your stupid arrows- which, I remind you, aren't even as strong as Link's stupid arrows- and we'll see who needs training!"

Pit drew back his bow, squinted one eye, and focused on the target. If someone had to teach his Goddess some discipline... might as well be him. "I know that your shield is divine, but it still needs good timing. Not everyone fights fair, Lady Palutena..."
