Who: Princess Bubblegum, Rick Sanchez, and anyone who wants to watch a motherfucking ROBOT FIGHT
Where: outside in a large open area with specially assembled bleachers
When: 3/14
Rating: PG-13ish
Summary: Bubblegum and Rick have had a slight disagreement over who's the better scientist. Time for a motherfucking robot fight to decide who's the best.
The Story:

It's a beautiful day outside. The birds are singing, flowers are blooming… perfect weather for a GIANT ROBOT FIGHT.

On one side of the field is Princess Bubblegum's robot, the CANDY CRUSHER, an elegant machine painted in pinks and purples that in no way make it look less like a giant metal monster that could squish a man like an ant. On the other side of the field stands THE ROBO-FUCKER, which is Rick’s monstrosity of metal and plastic and...wood for some reason. He built a robot out of wood one time and it worked pretty well, so whatever. It’s not nearly as elegant as the Princess’s, but it’s functional and covered in circular saws and servos and shit like that, so at least it has the “robot” part down.

Rick and Bonnie put aside their differences to assemble a set of bleachers large enough to hold the known population of Wonderland, since really, what's the point of having a giant robot fight to prove who the better scientist is if no one's there to watch it? It's complete with a force field to keep everyone harm from the carnage the two robots will undoubtedly cause.

Bonnie's on top of her robot with a blowtorch, making a few last minute adjustments as she waits for the match to start. She looks over towards Rick's robot with a glare. Sure, her attitude towards him may have softened in the process of building SUPER COOL BATTLEBOTS together, but that doesn't mean she's any less determined to crush him.

Rick matches her glare, and even does the whole point at eyes point at enemy thing because might as well sell this whole thing, right?

It’s just about time to begin. The crowds have gathered. People are drinking booze and milling about. Everyone’s here to see horrifying metal death.

Bonnie slides off her robot and takes her position at the end of the field, standing on a raised podium. She puts on a helmet and straps on her control gauntlets, then takes a battle ready position. The Candy Crusher lights up and follows suit.

Rick’s control system is more boring, basically just a sort of tablet with a few buttons and a joystick. This is basically like a super fun, high-stakes game of Punch Out to him. He taps the screen a few times and the ROBO-FUCKER (all caps of course) shifts and stomps in place a few times, servos whirring and circular saws starting to spin. He peers past the robots to where Bonnie is waiting on the other side of the field.

“You’re going doooooowwwnnnnn, aspartame!”

She gasps. "I AM ALL REAL, you collagen-deficient sack of biological material with a declining cell count and a tiny thymus! It is on!"

And she sends her robot charging forward, slamming her fists together into a laser gun that shoots bright pink blasts at the Robo-Fucker (she will not use all caps).

Rick answers with a war cry and the ROBO-FUCKER sends a blast of green energy in the direction of the Candy Crusher, while at the same time it charges forward. This is it! The robot fight of the millennium! Metal collides with metal! Saws meet blades! Lasers explode! Metal rends and shreds, plastic shatters, wood cracks. At one point Rick releases a bunch of snakes from a secret snake holster. They don’t do much but slither off toward the woods.

The battle rages on, and it’s basically the most awesome thing you have ever seen, I mean, come on, it’s two robots fighting, how badass is this? But after several long, incredibly cool minutes, it’s clear who the victor is. The Candy Crusher crushes the ROBO-FUCKER and it goes to pieces in the field.

Rick howls in anger to keep up appearances. Sure, this is a blow to his ego, but holy shit that was a lot of fun.

Bonnie pulls off her helmet and drops it on the stage next to her, holding up her fists. "I AM THE GREATEST SCIENTIST OF ALL TIME!" She presses one last button, and the Candy Crusher's fists shoot up into the sky, exploding in a brilliant display of fireworks. Her ego, it appears, is doing even better than usual. But yes, it was definitely fun.

Rick crosses the field once he’s sure most people aren’t looking anymore and, with a very begrudging look on his face, offers his hand for Bubblegum to shake.

“A-Alright, that was actually fun, we should totally do this again sometime, and anyway, you’re smart or whatever I guess.”

She shakes it, beaming. "Yes, I suppose you aren't as far beneath my level as I thought."

[ooc: feel free to mingle and tag out watching the robot fight or anything before or after, as well as to bother either of our robot engineers! we'll have starters for different sections.]

[With all the noise she's making, Undyne's awfully hard to miss. Frisk eventually manages to get to her side, watching her cheer the battle on with a wide grin. They're paying more attention to Undyne than the battle itself at this point.]

Told you anime was real!
ngah: (nobody never knew about it)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-15 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her grin doesn't falter, she's too excited, but she glances at Frisk before turning back to the carnage.]

No you didn't! You broke my heart into a million pieces!

[She's glad they did, but it's weird they'd say this now after all that.]
determinedest: (* And with that power...)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-15 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wait - did Undyne come from a timeline where Frisk told them it wasn't real? They must've tried that, a few times...

oops.]


Well, I guess I was wrong, then!

[They say it cheerfully, trying to roll with that punch regardless.]
ngah: (with the shame of a gun)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-16 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, yeah!!

[She doesn't really think too much about it. She's too caught up in the excitement of giant robot fights. And besides, she came out of that feeling better that they didn't lie to her.]

Does stuff like this ever happen on the Surface? Back in our world?

[Because that's almost as good as anime actually being real.]
determinedest: (* She'll find another kid.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-16 05:44 am (UTC)(link)
In movies, sometimes.

[Not in their memory, but they didn't get a lot of exposure to movies, or any kind of entertainment they enjoyed, before reaching the Underground.]

This is way better.
ngah: (its holy everybody knows it)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-16 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[So the giant robots thing is one point to Wonderland.]

Then I guess there are some cool things about this place.

Which one do you think's gonna win?
determinedest: (* They walk not the middle road.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-16 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hmmmm. They study the two robots fiercely going at it, weight the pros and cons of each. One of them has snakes. Why does it have snakes?]

The pink one. [They decide at last, though they're biased in that they simply overall like its design better. The other one certainly looks more lethal, and by that they mean it seems just as likely to wreak havoc on the audience as it does on its opponent.]

But I guess the Robo - [They flush. That's not a word they should be saying.] - the other one looks more dangerous.
ngah: (nobody never knew about it)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-16 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's got saws and stuff. But I think the Candy Crusher has a stronger defense to make up for it.

[She shrugs.]

I'm just cheering for whoever! It could go either way.
determinedest: (* They walk not the middle road.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-16 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's not like they've got money to bet on an outcome anyway. This is all exciting enough as it is.

Rick's robot scores a hit on the Candy Crusher, and Frisk bounces on the balls of their feet in delight.]


You think Alphys could join in on something like this sometime?
ngah: (theres no doubt of it)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-16 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe! She does do robots. I bet her giant robot would kick the butt of any robot it met!

[And she's not just saying that because Alphys is her girlfriend. Or maybe she is, but at least there's evidence to back up the fact Alphys is actually really good at building robots.]
determinedest: (* You told the Lost Soul a bad pun)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-16 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
She should sign up!

[Does this place do sign-ups? Whatever, Frisk would have a blast watching some kind of underground mecha fighting-ring.]

Or...I don't know, challenge the winner or something! I bed she'd win.
ngah: (hello world)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-17 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah!! We should tell her! [Alphys is, like, kinda tipsy at this point so who knows, maybe she'll actually agree to do it.] She could make a... how about... a robot centaur!? Or a DRAGON!?!
determinedest: (* They walk not the middle road.)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-17 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Even better.]

With like a, a jetpack, or a laser! [If she can install that kind of stuff into Frisk's phone, then a ROBOT would be even BETTER, logically.]

Is she here now?
ngah: (and all the times i tripped)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-17 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
A robot dragon with turbo boosters!

[At the question, she looks thoughtful.]

She was here earlier... She might be getting something to drink?
determinedest: (* You told the Lost Soul a bad pun)

[personal profile] determinedest 2016-03-17 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Frisk is hyped up on adrenaline and little else, though "drink" is a little ambiguous. Is Undyne referring to grown-up juice? Well, Alphys is a grown-up, so it doesn't really matter.]

That'd be amazing.

[Frisk glances around, but there's quite a few people here and they can't see Alphys in the vicinity.]

I'll look for her!
ngah: (the class is ending)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-18 09:29 am (UTC)(link)
[She was ambiguous because she wasn't sure, but. It probably is grown-up juice, honestly.]

Okay! I'll be here.

[She flashes a grin at Frisk.]
