you're toast, mister!

"I have another date! This is wonderful!"

[missmultitool]

Who's that singing to herself as she does her chores? Roll! She had such a good time last night that her good mood's lasting well into the next day. A wonderful date, a nice boy, and no brothers spying on it.

[missmultitool]

"I'm home from my date! It was amazing~! Sure, he's a little rough around the edges, but he's really sweet."

Guess who's home and had an absolutely fantastic date? Roll is, and she did, and no, she's still not going to say who her date was with.

[missmultitool]

"Roooooooooooooooooooock."

She’s straight-faced, and not giving in. No, Rock. Your spying attempts are terrible, she’s not going to put up with your behavior.

"It’s my job to find out who’s good for me. Not my brother’s. I made a mistake before, but I know what I’m doing. And you spying will just ruin it. Nobody wants to go out with a girl who has a hovering brother.”

[nowivegotyourpower]

Aaand there he goes. He’s given up (for now!), shoulders slumping as he exhales a deep, artificial breath. She’s not gonna crack. Rock’s bickered enough with Roll over this in the past to know a lost cause when presented with one…

"Alright, alright… But I wanna meet him sometime, still. And if he hurts you in any way I’m still punching his face in. Okay?"

Now if you’ll excuse Rock, he has to go sulk.

[missmultitool]

Yes! Victory! Roll does an internal victory dance and smiles at her brother. "Mmhmm, now if you'll excuse me, I need to get back to my chores. I can't fall behind today or I could end up late to my date tomorrow!"

[missmultitool]

"If the date goes well, I’ll tell you afterward. But only if you don’t try to spy on us! Otherwise you’ll get nothing out of me. Nothing.”

[nowivegotyourpower]

"Rooooooooooooooooooooooooooooll…………"

Heavy sigh. He’s giving you the puppy dog eyes now, Roll. Stay strong for the sake of your date!

"…I just… Wanna make sure he’s good for you is all. I’m sure he is, I just… Wanna know for myself?"

[missmultitool]

"Roooooooooooooooooooock."

She's straight-faced, and not giving in. No, Rock. Your spying attempts are terrible, she's not going to put up with your behavior.

"It's my job to find out who's good for me. Not my brother's. I made a mistake before, but I know what I'm doing. And you spying will just ruin it. Nobody wants to go out with a girl who has a hovering brother."

[missmultitool]

"All you need to know is he’s nice, and sweet, and totally not a slimebot in disguise. He’s honest and was really sweet about asking me.”

[nowivegotyourpower]

"Roll, that doesn’t tell me anything. Of course he’s going to be nice and sweet to you if he’s trying to ask you out! What’re his hobbies? What does he dress like? Does he swear? Sis, c’mon…”

[missmultitool]

"If the date goes well, I'll tell you afterward. But only if you don't try to spy on us! Otherwise you'll get nothing out of me. Nothing."

[missmultitool]

"I do~! And no, I’m not telling you who with or where we’re going because you’ll just get crazy overprotective."

[nowivegotyourpower]

"Wha— No I won’t! I’m not overprotective, Roll! I just wanna know who they are… I’m your twin, I need to know these things!! What if something goes wrong?!”

That’s a lie. If Rock finds out who Roll’s going out with, he will almost certainly try to spy on them. 

…Again.

[missmultitool]

"All you need to know is he's nice, and sweet, and totally not a slimebot in disguise. He's honest and was really sweet about asking me."

[missmultitool]

"Guess who has a date tomorrow night~? This girl!”

[nowivegotyourpower]

"I’m sorry, my audio processors must be malfunctioning. I’m pretty sure you just said you had a date, sis.”

[missmultitool]

"I do~! And no, I'm not telling you who with or where we're going because you'll just get crazy overprotective."

[missmultitool]

"Guess who has a date tomorrow night~? This girl!"

[missmultitool]

"Rock, did you finish your—- awww, that’s so cute!” For once Roll isn’t interested in making sure her brother accomplishes what he’s supposed to - that snowman is too adorable not to coo over! "It’s a little snow-bot!"

[nowivegotyourpower]

The sound of his twin’s voice causes Rock to jump and very nearly wreck the poor snowman in his surprise. Being asked whether he finished his chores was admittedly a more common question than he’d like to admit, as the hero had a tendency to space out or get distracted on his down time. Either that or they’d be interrupted by Dr. Wily, though that was much less frequent these days.

"Oh, ah— Hey, sis!" The compliment brings a smile to his face, and he reaches down to pat his creation’s head. "Heh, thanks. I didn’t think the snow would be sticky enough for snowmen this early in the winter, but I guess I got lucky. D’you think it’ll stick around?"

[missmultitool]

"I'm not a weather-bot, so how should I know?" Roll respons, but her tone is light, and she smiles at her brother with a fond expression. "Your little snowman there looks lonely though, don't you think? He needs a friend, someone to keep him company." Even if he'd probably end up melting tomorrow, if the weather forecasts she was tuning into were even close to right - but then, they never seemed to be fully accurate, so who knew?

[nowivegotyourpower]

Now that he’s done clearing out the snow from Dr. Light’s driveway, it’s fine to goof off for a while in it, isn’t it? Rock sure thinks so, if the way he’s happily buildng a tiny snowman is any indication.

[missmultitool]

"Rock, did you finish your--- awww, that's so cute!" For once Roll isn't interested in making sure her brother accomplishes what he's supposed to - that snowman is too adorable not to coo over! "It's a little snow-bot!"

[blueswithouttheblues]

"Ow. Now that was just harsh.” …he said while smirking. It was hard to be genuinely offended when he knew she was right, and he was proud of it. “I’m hurt, sis. Don’t you think I’d just wanna see my little brother and sister once in a while?”

He noted the activation of the vacuum, but he wasn’t worried. Yeah, she could take down guys like Elec Man and Fire Man without a hitch, but him, the coolest of the cool, Proto Man? Hah! She wouldn’t stand a chance. …That said, had they ever had a proper fight before? He can’t remember one ever happening. Regardless, he expected to have enough time to activate his buster if she made the first move. Maybe it was about time he saw for himself what his sister was made of, since he’d fought Mega Man plenty!

"What even is Ol’ Light Bright working on?" he asked. He very definitely wasn’t going to get an answer from Roll, considering he hadn’t gotten one from Rock, but nevertheless. "Can’t really do much with it if we don’t even know what he’s doing. For all I know, it could be totally useless."

[missmultitool]

"No," Roll said, and jabbed a finger at Proto Man's chest. "I don't think. You might drop by to pick a fight with Rock but he isn't even home right now." She harrumphed and folded her arms, tossing her ponytail a little to emphasize her disbelief.

"And if you think I'm going to tell you what Dr. Light's working on, you need to check your processor for glitches because something's misfiring." She didn't want to admit the real reason why she wasn't going to tell him anything - besides the fact that he was a jerk and she'd fry him if she could: she didn't know what Dr. Light was working on, either. She'd been too busy dealing with laundry and fake spiders and Rock's Halloween mania to spend much time helping out in the lab.

[missmultitool]

"You - No. Nononono no no NO. You turn right around, mister, and get out of here. You’re not getting anywhere near the lab, even if I have to turn you into a garbage disposal.”

[blueswithouttheblues]

Ah, typical little sister. Shame Proto Man was the single most disobedient robot on the planet.

"Now, didn’t Dr. Light program you to be more polite than that, sis?" he asked, though knowing full well she was completely justified. "I’m just dropping by. That isn’t a problem, is it?"

[missmultitool]

If Proto Man was the most disobedient robot, then Roll was the most bossy. At the very least, this brother was inadvertently who she took after in terms of stubbornness. Not that she would ever admit such a thing, or even acknowledge it. She didn't particularly like Proto, after all.

"He did, but I reserve politeness for the people who deserve it, not lying jerks like you," she said, huffing and arming her MultiTool with her ever-trusty vacuum. 

"And yes, it's a problem, because the only reason you'd come here is to steal something Dr. Light's working on, and I won't let you!" She may not have been a combat robot, but she wasn't afraid of taking on robots that were. Especially not this one.

WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST HUMAN MEMORY?

"Oh, you poor thing! Did someone mess up your coding? If you can tell me your creators, I'll put them in touch with Dr. Light to get you fixed right up! 

[missmultitool]

"Rock can't wait for Halloween to get here... but I can't wait until it's over. I am sick and tired of finding fake spiders in the laundry!"
