Imagine...
That you were walking all alone, late at night. Only for the computer in the room to suddenly get an incoming call. At TWELVE IN THE MORNING!
You then found out that the person calling you was… your grandfather? Wait, isn’t he busy helping Dr. Light work on that giant robot? Then why would he call the Lightbots just to-
“You aren’t actually speaking to the Doctor, you know.” A gruff, slightly baritone voice spoke out. Before the camera turns on and reveals… Needle Man?
What the hell? Who was this robot, and why did he call you?
Hold up… they’re in Dr. Wily’s old lab? So that's mean they've escaped, right? And despite your initial bewilderment, in the corner of your eye, you see…
Bubble Man.
Oh, you haven’t seen that face in so long, ever since your grandfather’s sentencing.
His visored gaze screams both sorrow and yearning, as he stares at your face on the screen.
The flashbacks of skating down the halls of your grandfather’s fortress came back; the memories of holding onto Bubble Man’s back and experiencing the ocean that surrounded the island, reminders that you’d once visit your grandfather and his robot masters every now and then…
But that all changed after Dr. Wily was arrested, and you were taken away from the robots you befriended for “kidnapping” you.
Bubble Man reminisced drowning in his own tears and misery. Seeing your injured, passed out form. But he had no choice but to leave you behind…
Back to Needle Man, you became interested in him and started to chat with him via email and DMs. But you had to keep this a secret from your adoptive Lightbot siblings and Dr. Light himself, because god knows what would happen if they found out.
And all that talking and emails eventually turned into a small but secret friendship that only you and the eldest Third Number knew about.
But what you didn’t see coming is Needle Man confessing his feelings for you an email; All while on a beautiful Saturday night.
"It feels kind of nice talking to you, maybe because you’re more… bearable than your own grandfather.”
