Jolt looked over at his coworker with a barely contained grin as he swept.

"Hey Jack."

"Hm?"

"Since we're doing all this repair stuff anyway, we should think about maybe upgrading some other stuff around here."

"Mm."

"Like gold plates."

"M- wait, what? Gold-colored, or actual gold? I don't know what anon decided to shower you in cash, but we're not doing either,"

"But Jack. We can serve eggs Benedict on them." And the steel robot grimaced, because there was only one way such ridiculous statements ever went with Jolt. "Because, you know, there's no plates like gold for the hollendaise." He burst out laughing at the pun, not even caring when his broom was snatched out of his hands. "Oh my god-"

"You're working in the back."

"Jaaaaack!"

"That was terrible. Your front-of-the-store privileges are revoked. Let's just be glad nobody else was here to witness it."

what's our song

((I feel like I need a song that somehow captures the dynamic of "I don't care if you don't like me, we're gonna be friends anyway ^u^" For Jolt and Shi. I unfortunately don't know of any. For now. suppose Jolt is frustrated with him: ))

"I wake up every evening, with a big smile on my faceAnd it never feels out of placeAnd you're still probably workingAt a nine to five paceI wonder how bad that tastesWhen you see my face Hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hellWhen you walk my wayHope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell"

- Gives You Hell, All-American Rejects

"Some day, When I'm awfully lowWhen the world is coldI will feel a glow, just thinking of youAnd the way you look tonight. Yes, you're lovelyWith your smile so warmAnd your cheeks so softThere is nothing for me, but to love youAnd the way you look tonight" 

- The Way You Look Tonight, Frank Sinatra (Jacore~ <3)

And of course the TRUE otp...

Shi/Cacti   u_u

"If you just realize what I just realized,Then we'd be perfect for each other,And we'll never find another.Just realize what I just realized.We'd never have to wonder ifWe missed out on each other now." 

- Realize, Colbie Caillat

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

what's our song?

((Once again I learn I need to expand upon my music library. I was totally going to go with that song by The White Stripes, buuut I don't wanna pick it too since you already did. o3o Totally a cute FH!verse song though. 

...actually really both of these ended up being good FH! songs. It's just a really cute friendship ok))

"We wont stop until somebody calls the copsAnd even then we'll start again and just pretend thatNothing ever happenedWe wont stop until somebody calls the copsAnd even then we'll start again and just pretend thatNothing ever happened" 

- Loose Lips, Kimya Dawson

"We get high, we let goWe've got more than we knowMy friends are a different breedMy friends are everythingMake this last, take it slowWe've got it all figured out for nowSo let us live our lives without a doubt"

- Vegas, All Time Low 

"Tú endulzas mi canciónLe das un buen sabor, a cada situaciónSiempre Tú

¿Quién podría ser mejor?Contigo sale el solSazonas mi interior, siempre

Se derrite el corazónTan sólo con una miradaSon tus besos, es tu voz que tienen mi alma enagenada"

- Chocolate, Jesse y Joy (For Ted and Connie! >w< Cuties)

Little Jolt of Horrors

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

Sage II had had enough of this chatter. They shot out and flung the table away, sending it to the other side of the restaurant. There was a startled yelp from the bot behind it, but it only had it’s eye on Tipsy now. This arrogant bot who thought she could talk shit and walk away. 

A thick tendril swung into her side, knocking Tipsy down. Before she had time to recover it wrapped around her. It could feel the pulse of her blue matter core. She had much more to take from than the first robot. Sage II didn’t have to break into the core to start siphoning it’s energy. 

Jolt took a step back before climbing over the tossed table and running into the kitchen. He had to act fast!! What could help the most? 

Well, let’s hope this thing wasn’t part hydra. He grabbed a large serrated knife from Jack’s organized kitchen drawers and ran back out. 

[theoiljoint]

It wasn’t like she’d never been hit before. But even as the table was flung away and the tendril raised again, Tipsy felt untouchable. No one would dare… especially not with Elijah—

The strike shattered her illusion, bending her so sharply at the side that something disconnected her inflexible chassis. Tonic skidded into a table, knocking it into a second one, and before she could lift a hand the tendril had got her, lifting her up into the air.

That’s when the real horror set in. Jacob, her secretive engineer, had never explained how her Core worked: neither that it powered her via a extradimensional series of connections only capable with Blue Matter nor that he had condensed every last bit of stolen Matter he had left into a wafer just the size of a silver dollar, enough to power ten robots. Tipsy was left horrified and confused as she became a sieve— constantly drained, constantly replenished.

And helpless.

No. No no no no. No no no no no no no no no NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

She screamed.

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

No!!

Jolt jumped into action. The needles of Sage II were no good against metal, and he used his heavy weight to his advantage pinning down a tendril and chopping through it. The plant let out a pained scream and whipped it's "head" around to see what was causing it. 

The inside of the tendril wasn't as gooey as he'd expected the inside of a cactus to be. It really just looked like a giant, prickly cucumber. Minus the seeds. Jolt pushed himself up and started cutting into the base of the tendril holding Tipsy. He didn't have long before he was grabbed around the middle and hoisted into the air himself- but the knife was more than halfway through. The weight of Tipsy and the prickly arm holding her was enough to break it the rest of the way off. 

"MAGGOTS!" Sage II screeched. "RUSTED SCRAP!! I'LL RIP YOU APART!!" It wasn't an empty threat. It viciously grabbed onto Jolt's arm and tried to pull it off. Thankfully, he was built stronger than that. 

"Tonic! The knife-!" He shouted as he pounded against Sage II's hold with his fists. 

[theoiljoint]

{And she just kind of flaps her hands trying not to look flustered like, “Well, you know, I’m busy— the bar is just— I’m busy and a agoraphobic workaholic. When did that open, anyway? And I thought it was a very good movie! I mean, that color—!”

{She doesn’t have it yet but she is totally buying at least a small TV in the future, so that player will not go unappreciated. Tho’ Shi might have engine failure when Tonic calls him up after watching one of his handpicked favorites and she just goes, “Yes but where were the songs?”}

[ifridiot]

((OH MY GOD, YES

He just makes stalling engine noises for a minute and then is like “I’m gittin’ ya s’me Disney, y’ wanna damn musical.”))

[theoiljoint]

{Next Halloween, her every-year cowgirl costume looks slightly more like Jessie from Toy Story. Can’t decide whether to own up to it or give Shi a don’t-you-say-anything glare, more flustered hand flapping.}

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

((Ok but Tipsy as Ursula and Elijah as Flotsam/Jetsam though))

[inboxideas]

Send me "what's our song?" and I'll pick lyrics from 3 different songs that I find fitting for our characters' interactions.

Or that I think would fit both our characters if they haven’t met or don’t know each other well.

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

amuseoffirebane:

Kissed for Tonic! Flip a coin to see if she smooches Jack or Jolt :D

Jack! Omg, if his face were capable of real expression he would be freaking out

Tipsy you are indeed quite the catch but he is unsure of how to handle this situation! @o@ So here Muse, have some surprisingly cute kisses without context. <3

[shielddeputydirector]

((You would think, given my obsession with drawing him playing his violin, I’d have gotten better at it.

Been wanting to write about Shi playing for a while, but not really sure what that would be like.

Trying to distract myself from hurts.))

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

((Neoma what the heck?? How do you even??

His hands and sitting posture all look so natural! And that violin looks perfect. /)O(\ How do you do such things?))

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

((Any of mine to any of yours)) Kissed

So uh, the tablet didn't want to work. :/ But! Here is Jack and Core, because I love them and always need more. u_u Precious bbys. You can't see super well but assume Core's face is like "omg honey what are you doing (you're so cute)" 

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

(( X_X It's 2 am, I'm gonna go to bed for the night so these drawings wont suck. 

I already generated the numbers though, and it's gonna be interesting to draw! Feel free to submit more if anyone wants to. u_u might take me a bit to get to them but I'll get them done.))

Little Jolt of Horrors

[ask-jack-and-jolt]

Sage II looked taken aback by Tipsy’s demands. They didn’t know how to respond to being scolded, such a thing had never happened before. They paid no mind to the phone that flew past them. ”I don’t see that you’re in any place to argue right now, Ms. Tonic.” They stopped as a shrill noise came from behind the cactus. 

The phone had been picked up by Jolt. What could he do with it though? The phone was dead, that’s why he’d thrown it in the first place. Anxious steam shot out of his neck in a short, shrill whistle that unintentionally drew the cactus’ attention.

Jolt had no desire to hurt anyone or anything, but Sage II would try to suck out all the blue matter from both of them if it was allowed to continue. Anything that could put a stop to the monster would be in the kitchen. Maybe he could just distract it? Restrain it somehow? Anon magic was temporary, he just had to get himself and Ms. Tonic out of there and secure the doors. Then he wouldn’t have to seriously hurt the plant. He caught Tonic’s eye and glanced at the kitchen. If either of them could get in there they could find something to use against Sage II. 

Or, he thought with humor unsuited for the situation, he could just send the cactus to Shi. He seemed to have exceptional skill at killing the things. 

[theoiljoint]

Tipsy silently cursed as the whistle shrilled out— dammit, what are you doing? But she caught Jolt’s look and the pointed glance towards the kitchen.

Hopefully, that meant help was back there, rather than more danger.

"I seem to have a habit of that," Tonic said, gripping a table’s edge and pulling it around in front of her, taking care to let the legs scrape loudly against the floor (and apologizing mentally for scratching the tile). "I guess you could call me stubborn. And I guess I could call you a piece of shit."

Trash talk was not Tonic’s specialty.
