Alright, you guys want me to give this a spin? I'll give this a spin. First, I'll have to set a few boundaries, though: 1. This will be done in the traditional paragraph format (Meaning all words, none of that picture stuff). Therefore, I will be expecting a certain level of detail in your responses… Read More

(OOC: Well screw you, CHAOS! I'm going to make my own RP thread! With blackjack and hookers!
Just kidding, I understand completely. I'll be picking up the new Smash this weekend. But I am trying to put together an RP thread similar to yours. Any tips for a first-timer like me?)
(Alright, alright, it's been long enough. Let's get this show back on the road!)
The Gamble Bomb was quick to detonate, sending Knight flying off the back of his horse and onto the ground. For a moment, he lay completely still, smoke coming off of his heavily armored chassis in waves, then he reached for his lance and picked himself up with it, his iron horse flailing and fighting all the while. "Ho, now that was a good hit..." he said, "but it'll take more than that to stop me!" He dutifully trudged back toward the battle, and, approaching his Iron Horse, struck Print-Man with his lance. "I believe that that is mine!"
"Beg pardon sir, but-ack!" Print Man blurted as Knight's blow forcibly dismounted him from the Iron Horse. However, his left foot remained stuck in the stirrup, leaving the author-bot to be dragged about the chamber. Barley maintaining his grasp on his Vorpal Pen , Print Man let loose a stream of ink from the tip of the blade, tripping the pursing Knight and leaving him covered in the slimy black liquid. "Would someone-oof!-mind igniting-arugh!-that puddle?" Print Man stuttered amidst the flurry of kicks from the unruly Iron Horse.

[OOC: How long this story hasn't been updated surprises me! Well, I might as well get it going]
Insanity Man, standing directly from Knight, continued to ponder about the pillar situation in the room.
"Now that I think about it, only breaking four pillars...Just wouldn't be enough. I'm not one for ruining what will be my castle, but there should be a way I can break, say, almost all the pillars in this room without the entire castle collapsing. Making it so that this room supports the whole thing be a pretty "insane" move by King. So, if I'm guessing right, I can basically hit anything here and hope the whole thing doesn't collapse. I'd assume the ceilings have support beams, due to the design of dem ceilings. Print Man, over there, seems like he's having fun being dragged. Too bad I'm the only one who gets to have fun! Might as well tell em bout my plan too."
Insanity Man, taking quick notice of the fiery puddle, concocts a plan so brilliant-Wait, that's not the word. Insane, more like. He forms into his familiar armadillo-form, and starts gaining momentum. At the last second, he separates from his shell and goes flying! The shell itself also heads with him, still full with kinetic energy.
Knight, distracted from the flaming puddle, tries his hardest to steer his horse away from the burning trap. Before he knows it, however, a familiar shell pops out of the flames! Knight, quickly reacting, manages to command his horse to kick the shell away.[Also, he doesn't notice Insanity wasn't in the shell] Unfortunately for Knight, he underestimated the speed of the shell, noticing his steed's front right leg was more crippled than before. As he prepares himself for battle, a aerial fist suddenly struck him on the cheek! He's launched off his noble steed, onto the battle-ridden floor. The mechanical horse, with no master to command it, panics directly onto the flaming puddle that Print Man and Mage Man set.
Insanity Man, who prepares to get the dickens out of there, grabs Print Man off the horse. Luckily, it was before the horse decided to charge into the flames. Quickly running to where his shell was kicked, he motions Gamble and Mage to come.
"Listen, we ain't got much time to explain! Plan of action now, hit pillars, avoid dumb and dumber over there. Capiche? By the way, after this....Nothing! Forget it!"
The other robots look at him and nod, as Knight gets up from the floor, showing a slight hint of rage, and his horse escapes out of the now-extinguished trap.
(Nice try, guys. Pen ink is primarily water-based and has no flammable contents. Let's see what really happened...)
Just as before, Knight pulled himself back onto his feet with his lance, slightly irked that his lavish armor had been stained by the black liquid. "You've done a fair number on my horse there...SLVR-Lite, retreat! We'll ride into battle together another day."
Nodding as if in response, the horse whinnied and galloped out the same stained-glass window it had smashed, leaving Knight alone to defend himself. As Insanity's outer shell came rolling towards him, he batted it away as he had before, noting that it seemed oddly lighter—and as his fist connected with Knight's helmet, he became enlightened as to why. The blow stunned him for a moment, but he resolutely remained on his feet, and as his head cleared, he swung at the air before his banded-together foes. "Come now, surely you are not above fighting me head-on!"
