On MKIII's release. (Possible album spoilers? Is that a thing?)

[awfulsentimetal]

Look, puttin' that song on the album wasn't my idea. Rabbit and Hatchy must've slipped it in right before we sent it off--

[Says the robot that does a bit about dysentery on stage.]







... You can stop laughing any minute now, Miss Mundane.

Ultra diarrhea.

dagnabbit wade

[awfulsentimetal]

[Because The Spine can never resist correcting blatant inaccuracy...]

Super diarrhea.

hi baby

[fukkinawesome]

Oh yes I forgot. Super.

Ultra kicks the shit out of super any day anyway.

B|

[awfulsentimetal]

Only 'cause Ultraman is evil.

[What are they even talking about.]

so u single

[fukkinawesome]

Yeah what's your point, so's Megatron.

I think if you're talking about diarrhea, you should go with ultra. Just because it's pure, liquified evil.

ಠ_ಠ

[awfulsentimetal]

... I'm not havin' this conversation. I've been plugged into the internet too long and it's creepin' into my headwiring, that's what this is.

... WHAT

[fukkinawesome]

It's great isn't it? C'mon, buddy, there's nothing wrong with a bit of healthy debate!

N O P E

[awfulsentimetal]

Beggin' your pardon, but I think this is more of an unhealthy debate.

can i have a hug

[fukkinawesome]

What? Why? ... Is it because we're talking about poop? Or do you have a thing against Ultraman? What did he ever do to you?

No.

[awfulsentimetal]

It's that first thing, definitely. ...Well, okay, maybe I do have somethin' against Ultraman, but that's only 'cause he's evil.

please?

[fukkinawesome]

So... you would really hate The Great Mighty Poo. Bad guy made outta poop. That was a fuckin' awesome video game though.

No.

[awfulsentimetal]

Weren't we movin' on to a different topic.

[That video game might be worth looking into, though.

Mentally twelve, all of them.]

pretty please?

[fukkinawesome]

But I like this topic!

Fine be a pussy.

You single?

B|

[awfulsentimetal]

No.

[Does he mean he isn't single? Or is he putting his foot down on this topic, too? The world may never know.]

DON'T BE SUCH A PRUDE

[fukkinawesome]

Is that... 'No I am not single' or 'No this is a bad topic'? Because this could go either way.

[awfulsentimetal]

[There's a looooooong pause, and then:]

Yes.

[fukkinawesome]

Great.

So how about Saturday?

[awfulsentimetal]

[Wait, what.]

That was "yes I'm not single" and "yes this is a bad topic". I don't even know who you are, bucko.

[fukkinawesome]

Deadpool, nice to meet you.

[This just means you're a challenge]

How about a hug?

[awfulsentimetal]

The Spine. Likewise...? [Yeah, he doesn't sound too sure about that. He gives Wade an even more uncertain glance.] Uh, well... are you a fan?

[fukkinawesome]

... Yes.

[awfulsentimetal]

[DARN IT.]

Well, I can't say no to a fan.

[Although it usually isn't grown men asking for hugs. Oh well. He opens his arms wide. Get in here, Wade.]

[fukkinawesome]

[YAY.

And yeah he's just pretty much jumping on and koala clinging. Hey buddy how's it going?]

[malfunctionbot]

Oh c'mon, Spine. Have ya a-seen tumblr? Th' fans are goin' nuts for it! Just admit I-I-I did good for once.

[awfulsentimetal]

Nope. The fans go nuts over everythin' we do, that doesn't mean a darn thing.

[malfunctionbot]

[HUFF] Yer just jealous ya don't get a m-magical girl transformation sequence l-like me.

[awfulsentimetal]

Sure, Rabbit. That's what it is. I'm jealous of your impendin' upgrade. You caught me.

[malfunctionbot]

Called it.

[awfulsentimetal]

Sure did.

[wizardofharmony]

My mundane wishes to relay a message to you. Specificially:

"Shine bright like a diamond."

I trust you know what it means?

[sailorlaughter]

Nonononono, Lucia! He's not like a diamond! He IS a diamond!

[Hoofbump]

[awfulsentimetal]

[Oh lord. Daydream while plugged into the HOW once and you never live it down. QWERTY you traitor.]

...Somethin' like that.

[awfulsentimetal]

Uh... thanks? I think. Tell your mun I hope they're shinin' bright today, too.

[He gives the brim of his fedora a polite tug.]

Mundanes and their, uh, eccentricities aside, it's a pleasure to meet you, Miss. I'm called The Spine.

[wizardofharmony]

I am... [You know what? Let's not explain all the AU crap]. That is, call me Twilight. You'll have to forgive my excitable pink friend. She... is.

[Yes, that is pretty much the right way to explain Pinkie Pie.]

Forgive me if I'm being rude, for I ask out of ignorance. Are you a golem?

[awfulsentimetal]

Nothin' to forgive, I don't mind you asking. [His head tilts with a whirr and a click.] Tricky question. I'm a robot, which... I suppose is kinda like a golem, from what I understand, what with being made of metal and not bein' alive and all, but I'm powered by machinery, not magic.

Well. Machinery and blue matter, which I guess is a bit like magic. Science magic.

[wizardofharmony]

[That answer is enough for her. 'Same idea, different method.']

But is it sufficiently advanced?

My mun tells me you are a renowned singer. And that you have... 'literal million dollar pipes?' Is that a username joke?

[Yes. Harvey Finevoice claims to have them, but The Spine has the real deal.]

I see. Well met. It is always good to see someone use their talents to create beauty.

[unpossible]

Oh come on, it can't be that bad can it?

[ shhhh, clara. ]

If anything you've just made my mun more excited for the album. That should count for something.

[awfulsentimetal]

[Flatly.] It can and it is.

[... But he just shakes his head ruefully and moves on, brightening up with a small smile. No point in dwelling on it, really. What's done is done and, well, it isn't as though he hadn't participated.]

Why, sure it does! It counts for a little more than somethin'! I'm glad to hear it, it's always a pleasure to meet--er, hear about--a fan.

[unpossible]

[ clara grins, then looks the spine up and down. ]

So, are you really a robot then?

[awfulsentimetal]

Nope, just a guy in a tin can. [He raps his knuckles against his chest. It doesn't sound hollow, exactly, but it sure doesn't sound like there's a person in there, either.] Sorry, couldn't resist. I'm really a robot. I'm called The Spine, on account of my titanium alloy spine.

[Oh no, here we go...]

That's kinda my, heh, back story.

[unpossible]

[ did he really just... INWARD GROANING! but outward smiling, because spine, clara kind of finds you fascinating. so she might look just a little bit excited, maybe? also you're a robot who isn't trying to kill her so that makes you even more awesome. ]

Pleased to meet you, I'm Clara. [ she automatically sticks out her hand then hesitates. ] Sorry, is this okay? Do ...robots shake hands?

[greeterings]

Look on the bright side, the harmonies did turn out quite nicely! And you're extremely helpful when tax season rears its ugly head.

Want some water?

[Is he teasing? He sounds totally innocent, and that mask is the ultimate poker face! Except for, y'know, the body language. Teehee.]

[awfulsentimetal]

[He's known you too long not to be able to read your body language, Peter. B U S T E D.

Have a mirthless stare from your robo-uncle.]

You know robots can't have diarrhea, Mister Walter.

[greeterings]

I know that perfectly well, I'm just asking because I happen to have a bottle on me! See?

[He actually does have one inside his coat! Totally innocent, here. Only not really. Hee.]
