Oh jeez, I don't know where to start with explaining this...

I suppose it started with Xemnas's comment in Final Mix about Aqua being an old friend. And since I like to consider the Nortys to be Mexican, my brain went off from there and created a whole story about how Norty was the token Mexican at his school and Aqua became his bestest friend foreverest and she thought it was sooo cool that she was hanging out with a minority. They would always go shopping together and talk about boys (Ven and Terra) and their feelings. But when Norty started getting popular (just because he's a minority), Aqua started to worry that she wouldn't be cool enough for him so she thought she should act like how she thought typical Mexican girls act. And so we now have a chola!Aqua. Needless to say, Norty didn't appreciate this weird gesture. They didn't even live in the west side. And things just started getting awkward.

And Norty's wearing a Raiders shirt not just because they're popular within the latino population, but also because I think it's funny how much the mascot looks like Xigbar : B
