CHARACTERS: Peridot, Pearl, and OPEN!

DATE: After Oska-sim, before the Team-Bonding tasks event

WARNINGS: Robotic dismemberment, maybe.

SUMMARY: Robot fights??? Robot fights.

• BEFORE THE FIGHT •

[Now that Oska has been "fixed"… it's about time to mess it up again. At least in a contained way that doesn't involve any "false realities." Two large, pilot-able robots stand opposite each other in a large ring, circled off with linked rope and poles.

One robot is a bright green color, diamond shaped with claw-like hands, and shorter than the other robot. The second robot is tall, smoother looking, with longer "legs" and pastel colored.

Both are unoccupied… for now, but outside of the ring is a crudely, and almost lazily painted sign with the words:
]

BUY TICKETS HERE

[…Someone's selling tickets to this??

Maybe someone else is nearby who can answer some questions… Or maybe also has no idea what's about to happen, but hey, feel free to look around anyway.
]

THE FIGHT

[A. - Closed to Peridot and Pearl]

[Now that the tickets have been sold, both Gems arrive at the arena.

After inspecting the area marked for their fight, and then inspecting her own robot to make sure Pearl hadn't tried to CHEAT while she was away, Peridot climbs into her own robot, testing the controls. It works just as well as it did when she first assembled it, so everything seems fine. As Pearl climbs into her own robot, Peridot calls out a taunt.
]

I HOPE YOU'RE READY TO PRACTICE BOWING AGAIN, RENEGADE SCUM!!

[B. - Open To All]

[Oh, so that's why those giant robots were there. An old fashioned showdown, This Town Isn't Big Enough For The Both Of Us-style... But no guns and quick drawing, and with robots instead? Seems like it. Feel free to watch, and maybe wind up dodging some torn up dirt as the fight processes.]

Well, cakes not so much...usually just for Papyrus' birthday.

But I've made quiches and pies before. Gave cookies a stab at Christmas too; don't think they came out all that bad either.

[Sans "i know a lot about food but my diet is garbage" the skeleton.]

You've been holding out on me all this time?!

[ How did she never know this? She feels so betrayed, somehow. ]

Papyrus and I were going to try cooking some new stuff, but the kitchen has everything already so there's no point. Maybe when we go back, we could. Uh. Bake something together??

[ She sounds unsure about the going back part. ]

1/3 maybe

...

[Wow, this is...weird. Not exactly what he expected to hear from her, but there's no reason not to, right?

Oh, wait, there are plenty of reasons. But he can take care of all of them in one go.

You know...considering this isn't your kitchen to burn down, I'm gonna need you to do exactly as I say, right? No "it'll cook in half the time at double the temperature" or something.

And when I say beat the eggs, I don't want you to take that literally either.

Oh, and if I tell you to-

[She's free to interrupt.]

Hey!! What are you trying to say, exactly?! I'll show you pound cake--

[ She has no right to be offended. It's not her first time at the rodeo, and it wouldn't be her first time burning down the house.

A castle would be a new achievement though. ]

Fine, we can do it your way. But only because I have to see it for myself now!

Then I'm all for it...once the show's over that is.

[Oh yeah and giant robots are still fighting?? he hasn't been paying attention, but there you go.

Lookit 'em go.

Pew.

Pow.
