On harems and silliness

[drillsforhands]

Yanno mun...

As fun as the idea is, what the hell would I do with a lady harem? It's not like they can fight better than me, or do anything I can't do myself.

And well the other reason for a harem I can't do anyways.

So yeah. Don't see why you want me to get one.

Because there's nothing else to hang out with. There's Quick, and Metal and well... Shadow, who is a butt.

[Oh yeah, he went there. And he's not even mentioning the Lightbots.]

[residualforce]

Shadow's a brat and hard to get along with, but he's not human. Isn't Quick supposed to be your best friend, anyway? Not that I can blame you for getting tired of him every now and then, I guess...

[drillsforhands]

Thing is, they're the only ones who are robots that I can hang around with. And yeah, Quick is awesome, but we both need time to ourselves yanno?

[residualforce]

But how does it work? I spent a lot of time around humans before Wily revealed us, but I wasn't friends with them.

Wouldn't you being built to take them over cause problems?

[drillsforhands]

The few friends I do have know about all that. One of 'em thinks I can stop blowing stuff up and having fun and all that boring stuff.

[shrug] Some of them think I'm a good guy, even after knowing what I do.

[residualforce]

So they're only friends with you because they're stupid or masochistic?

[he probably said it that way on purpose.]

[drillsforhands]

Probably. Some of them even let me "train" them, when all I did was throw bombs at them!

[any insult there went riiiiight over Crash's head, Magnet.]

[residualforce]

To be fair, that's how some of us "train". Doesn't really help, though.

How do they count as friends, then? I mean, they're not like Quick, right? They sound more like...pets or something.

[drillsforhands]

Yeah, but we can be repaired if we blow up. Humans tend to just make a gross mess.

Nooo, none of them are like Quick. And pets is probably the right term but they'll get all pissy if you call them that.

[residualforce]

You're the worst pet owner ever.

[drillsforhands]

What, how? I haven't killed any of them!

[residualforce]

You threw bombs at them. That's not how you're supposed to treat pets. Try sticks or balls next time. Soft ones.

[drillsforhands]

They wanted to be trained to fight, well except the cat he doesn't like fighting so I was training him to run away. And how else am I gonna teach stupid people to fight?

[residualforce]

Don't teach them. If they're the pets, they don't have a say. It's your responsibility to make sure they don't get blown up.

They throw sticks and balls at each other anyway, so it's not like they can get offended about that. You could call it training, too. They'll probably learn as much as they would if you threw bombs at them.

[drillsforhands]

I can't watch them all the time, yanno. They gotta take care of themselves, especially the ones who are with the stupid army-thing we've got in the digital world.

... I'm not gonna play Baseball with them, Magnet.

[residualforce]

So you're going to blow them up yourself? What if they don't dodge right?

Still the worst pet owner ever.

[drillsforhands]

Then that's their fault, not mine.

At least I have pets, unlike you stupid thirds.

[residualforce]

They're pets. They can't be responsible for something like that. Aren't you supposed to be the bomb expert?

I don't want a pet unless I know I can take care of it. It's called being responsible.

[drillsforhands]

If they're that stupid then they don't really deserve to live. And yeah, I am. You know a bunch of them though I caused an electrical explosion?

It's called sucking, cause no one wants to hang out with any of you.

[residualforce]

If you wanted competence, then you wouldn't be friends with humans.

You're just mad because I said you weren't good with pets.

[drillsforhands]

Except I don't care, if they don't get themselves killed then it's cool.

Nope, the Doc gave me a pipi and she's still around an okay and I've taken care of her just fine!

[residualforce]

Your pipi doesn't count. You're not going near the ducks.

[drillsforhands]

She totally counts, and I never even mentioned your ducks.

[residualforce]

She's a robot. And I'm just making that clear. Good communication is key.

[drillsforhands]

She's still a pet. And why would I want your ducks? I have a duck of my own.
