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.]

fuck it i gotta

[Alphys can't help but sit with Undyne and watch her get very, very enthusiastic about Things Going Down. She also may have gotten alcohol and is getting slightly loaded. Not super loaded. Just slightly loaded. Also popcorn.]

T-This is amazing! T-they, uh, r-really worked hard on t-these.

[She lets out a little shriek as one of the robots collides with the other and a piece goes flying off. It's like the splash zone, but for shrapnel.]
ngah: (and all the times i tripped)

yesss

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-16 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
[She actually flinches when the piece lands nearby, but cheers once it's clear the thing didn't actually hurt anyone. The forcefields were a good plan.]

YEAH!!! HEY, speaking scientifically, which one do you think looks more like it could win!? [Both of them look supremely cool for completely different reasons.]
sciencelizard: (« [Questioning] I have a theory...)

this is a date right

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-03-16 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
[The forcefields were a REALLY good plan, considering Alphys is certain there would've been heavy collateral damage otherwise. She chugs a bit more of her drink anyway, though, because this is a Party and she is going to Party alright.]

W-Well, I think t-they both have uh, s-some cool stuff! But I've, uh, t-talked to Bubblegum-- the pink one, and I r-really like her construction! I think, uh, h-hers is more stable. Also, t-the coloring is nice. [She kind of misses Mettaton, not going to lie.]
ngah: (its holy everybody knows it)

of course it is

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-16 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That makes sense! Even though the other one looks kinda like... a grizzled old warrior. Or just a robot with nothing left to lose.

[So like, the opposite of Mettaton.]
sciencelizard: (« [Excited] MEW MEW!!!!!)

they just Bring The Gay wherever they go

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-03-17 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
[The exact opposite of Mettaton, tbh.]

L-Like, the sparkly p-pink newcomer a-against, uh, the old w-warrior? T-The young upstart facing the m-master??

[THIS IS JUST LIKE HER ANIMES NOW]
ngah: (and in the spotlight)

It's Their Duty

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-18 09:35 am (UTC)(link)
Now I'm kinda rooting for her, if you put it like that...! Yeah, she's gonna use all the skills she learned against him! He's taught her all his tricks... except for one! Can she defeat his last gambit!?
sciencelizard: (« [Enthusiastic] Everything's Comin Up A)

they gotta Bring The Queers it's just necessary

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-03-18 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah! Like, this is h-her final test! S-She's been studying w-with him, but as it t-turns out, s-she has a quest she has, uh, t-to undertake! But he w-won't let her! S-So now she has to f-fight for her destiny!!!!
ngah: (holy holy hold on to everyone)

[personal profile] ngah 2016-03-19 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Destiny's involved now!?? She's gotta win!!! She's gotta rise up!!! CANDY CRUSHER!!!
sciencelizard: (« [Excited] MEW MEW!!!!!)

[personal profile] sciencelizard 2016-03-19 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah! You c-can do it, candy crusher! Fulfill the prophecy!!!!

[She cranks her head back and downs her drink. Now she's just making things up but there's alcohol involved, so, whoops.]
