About This Piece

The full story takes longer to tell, so this version just claims the title and moves on.

This phrase claims that title directly, honestly, two words cover what used to take a whole explanation.

It's a claim made with confident defiance, for anyone who'd rather claim the underdog title outright than explain the whole story.
