I don't think combat stats would be required. Maria's mother would just curbstomp Selina's, no questions asked.

I can only hope Maria's mother never meets her.

Her voice turned grim.
"Now put me on the line with this woman. I'd like to meet her and give her a piece of my mind."

Maria hugged Selina.
"It's ok, Selina, let it all out."

"Oh dear.

Listen here, Selina. If my daughter though thinks that you're worth the time to love, then you're a wonderful person. And if your mother can't see past you being lesbian, then fine, she's blind! And...."
A slight pause.
".....and you're a Ryan in our books. If your own mother rejects you, remember that Maria, Alistair, my husband and I are your family as well."
"Wow....thanks, mum. That was....much appreciated."

"....Hm.
So my daughter has a girlfriend and is trying to save the world?
Well, don't get too badly injured."
She chuckled. Maria looked surprised.

"Mom?"
"Oh, don't worry, honey. I've met a magical girl before."
"......really?"
"One of my best friends still, although nowadays we've drifted apart. You have my blessing to continue."
"You're not.....worried?"
"Well, I would LIKE to meet your girlfriend, who sounds like a charming lady, and I would like you to not, well, DIE. But I know you're strong, Maria. And if you've got friends.....well that makes the problem moot."
".....you don't care about the girlfriend bit?"
"Of course. If my daughter can love her, then she's okay in my book. Why, is there an issue?"

And then Izanami joins the phone call. And then Nanako.

Well. As soon as Maria's parents find out what Selina's mum called their daughter.....

I have this to say: the entire Ryan family are Mama Bears or Papa Wolves.
