...What just happened?
I'unno. That was weird. Anyway, anyone in the mood for some Ice Crea-
ONLY ICE CREAM WILL SUSTAIN ME.
...
...
...Oh my gosh, I am so, so sorry!
...So, is that a yes or a no?
IT IS A "I WILL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK."
...
Something bothering you?
...I don't know what it is... but I don't exactly trust that "Pop" character.
She literally just came in here. How do you even know her name?
Nevermind how I know that. Point is, I don't trust her.
What is it about her, exactly, do you not trust?
Look, all I know is, there is a side to her that is rather frightening. And people like that cannot be trusted... Much like that creature known as EEKA-
*Shivers* I dare not even speak its name... I can already feel it staring into my artificial soul...
...I literally have no idea who or what you are even talking about.
All I will say is, it is most definitely more "what" than "who".
And all I will say is, I just think you're overthinking things.
Finally! Some good food!
Hey, Jack! Come check this out!
Well...I won't be powering down tonight...
Hey...you guys wouldn't mind if we take over fo-
Right...I'm gonna go to the bathroom for a minute.
But robots don't need to--
Next thing I know, after I enter the hospital there's this Star Man humming something.
What happened next?
Well, then I--
Sorry you guys, but I just couldn't stand being the exact same thing as everyone else (Plus maybe I'll find a little bit more luck in being a not Proto Man). So...
Whaddya think?
Eh.
Eh.
EH!?!?!?!?
...Excuse me. You're THE Shaggy Rogers, correct?
That's right, man! Like, why do you wanna know?
...I basically want to know about this.
...Like, wow. That's rather impressive, for a mortal.
Indeed, great for mortals. But why can't I go any higher? I was able to use Mastered Ultra Instinct, like Beta Shadow-
Just like him, huh?
Ok, somewhat like him- But now, the form is just... Gone!
Well, like, maybe it has to do with when Cranky Kong tried to nerf everyone?
But that event mostly only affected-
...Oh, I get it now. You all still think I'm the villain, don't you? That I'm out to take over the world or something, but the truth is, I only want to simply DEFEAT Beta Shadow in battle to prove myself- the ORIGINAL Reaper of this account- to be stronger than him.
Well, even villains had ended up ignoring the effects, too, so, like, I'm not quite sure what to tell you, man.
...However. If you're, like, looking for a boost in power... then perhaps I can help you with that.
...But, like, I'm gonna finish all this food, first.
Why I'd choose grey? It's the same color as him!
...Crud.
All of this work-- all for a "meh"!?
Sorry. With the awkward hair sticking out, and the lack of any emblem on the cap, it's nothing short of mediocre.
....Wow. Way to lay it on me, sis.
Wait, what if we both wore matching outfits? Wouldn't that be cool?
Maybe. But I'm not sure pink is your color.
I don't remember you having this much snark before.
Hmm. Me neither, actually.
"Fastest thing alive"!? I object to that statement! I object, SQUAWK!
No offense, Reggae, but you're a robot. I don't necessarily think you count.
Really? Two times in a row. I need to improve my aim.
Surrender now, and we won't fire again.
Huh. That never works...
So. How are you enjoying life?
Honestly? I don't even know. I have no idea what my own Designation of all things is, much less my purpose.
Sucks, doesn't it--eerr I mean, sucks to be you!
If it's any consolation, I don't really remember much either.
It doesn't make me feel any better that the first two non-psychos I have met since magically re-existing are just as lost as I am.
But for what it's worth... I appreciate the thought. I haven't really been able to wrap my head around anything since... you know.
It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday...
(MY EARS, OW, OW, MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP, MAKE IT STOP! REGULUS, ANYONE-- COME DOWN AND DESTROY EVERYTHING ALREADY! JUST MAKE IT STAUGH-HAUGHP!)
