Fly on a Dog

How many more times must I fight? The answer is simple: as many as it takes. [An Independent RP Blog for a Megas-based Rock, set after the MM3 events. Icon art by Kim Herbst. No art on this blog is mine, and credit will always be given.]

“B-but it’s not much clothing and -” Stop. He was going to stop, and breathe, and…. drop his head into hid hands again for a while. “Oh god I am so sorry, miss. I swear I’m not normally this. Uh. Awkward? At least I… don’t think I am, or… or…. probably not, anyway?”

“Many swimsuits are far less.” She pat his shoulder. “I should get some more clothing shortly, though, if only so I don’t have to deal with those who aren’t near as…chivalrous as you.” She hated that word. It was just…so outdated. But it sounded better than ‘those who are more likely to attempt things that I’d have to stab them for’.

“Y-yeah, I guess, but...” Rock swallowed and shrugged slightly. “I haven’t really... been to a pool or the beach, though so um. I haven’t... really looked?” He’d been too busy helping his father, mostly - or doing things he really didn’t want to have to think about when it still haunted him nearly every night.

“I’m so sorry,” Rock all but squawked, forcing himself to make eye contact now even if it meant his face stayed bright red for the next few minutes. Hopefully it wouldn’t make him overheat or anything. “Really, I’m - er - it’s just - I haven’t uh, seen many pretty ladies in - in that kind of clothing I - er… ohgodI’lljustshutupnowthiskeepsgettingworse.”

Maeve was far, far too amused. And it crept onto her face. “Calm down, before you overheat.” She reached out to pat his shoulder. “It’s just another piece of clothing, that’s all it is. Pretty, but clothing.”

“B-but it’s not much clothing and -” Stop. He was going to stop, and breathe, and.... drop his head into hid hands again for a while. “Oh god I am so sorry, miss. I swear I’m not normally this. Uh. Awkward? At least I... don’t think I am, or... or.... probably not, anyway?”

“Well um - er. Yeah? At least a - a really pretty someone I mean -” And now he squawked, burying his face in his hands again as his face did a new but passable imitation of a ripe tomato. “I - I mean there’s - there’s laws about - about indecent exposure and - I - “

He squeaked, then groaned and turned his gaze to the ceiling, looking very embarrassed and flustered. “I - um. Wouldn’t want you arrested or something? And - and I’m really making a mess of this aren’t I…?”

Maeve couldn’t help but laugh. “I have all the things that would be considered ‘indecent’ covered.” Thankfully she hadn’t worn anything that was see-through or lacy in the ‘important’ areas. “Your eloquence does need some work, I’m afraid.”

It was always nice when the rifts showed the sort of world she was stepping into. Made it easier to dress appropriately. The places that were more like her birthplace or Nova or X’s worlds were always a nice breath of fresh air…sort of. They did, she had noticed, do a number on her senses at first, the girl breaking into sneezes as she got deeper into the city. She’d gotten so used to the clean and less sensory overload-cluttered Terra that she kept forgetting how much more noisy and bright more modern worlds were…

It was a good day to take Rush out for a walk. A sunny day, a peaceful day, and most of the reporters had finally given up on getting any more interviews out of Rock or his family. That meant it was a good day to take his dog out and let his thoughts wander - to try and clear his head of the cluttered mess of hurt and confusion that had followed him around like a fog ever since Blues had gotten him out of Wily’s last fortress.

Rush seemed eager for the outing, too, the red mechanical canine bounding along with his tongue hanging out, occasionally stopping to sniff a tree or a fire hydrant. Once he spotted a squirrel and it was only Rock’s insistent “No, Rush,” that stopped him. 

He had a leash on, though that was really only for compliance with the leash laws of the city; he wouldn’t go far from Rock’s side. He was too well-programmed for that. The canine did, however, perk half-flopped ears up at the sound of a woman sneezing, trying to tug Rock over to make sure the human lady was okay.

Rock, caught up in his thoughts again, didn’t notice that was what his pet was doing until he was already nearly face-to-face with the unfortunate woman. “A-ah! Sorry, ma’am, I think my dog’s worried about you.”

“Wrong turns in your underwear don’t happen!” It was more a squawk than a proper protest, and the robot swallowed uncomfortably. “I - uh. Here just. Gimme a sec, I -” he turned and fled, retreating into the house part of the lab before coming back with a dark blue jacket. “Uh - here. Can you. Um… put this on maybe so I don’t…” He couldn’t look at her, even as he handed it over. Not without his face flaring into a passable imitation of a tomato.

“I mean, if you’re comfortable and all that’s fine I - er. I’d just. It kinda makes it hard to um. Converse and. You’re a real’ pretty lady I um. I- “ Wow, he really couldn’t… talk properly right now. Maybe he was malfunctioning? He’d have to talk to Dr. Light later.

“…I can’t help you get home if I can’t talk to you I’m sorry ma’am please don’t be offended you’re cool, wearing underwear is cool in places I guess I just. Um.”

…Ugh could he disappear please? This was way past embarrassing.

Why was it people had such a taboo against underthings? She sighed, taking the jacket, raising a brow. “One of those who aren’t sure what to do around someone not fully dressed?” A rhetorical question, but she needed time to get him to possibly be of use in finding the rift she’d apparently stumbled through.

Damn multiverse being a chaotic ball of annoyance. It would be nice if the rifts were always visible.

“Well um - er. Yeah? At least a - a really pretty someone I mean -” And now he squawked, burying his face in his hands again as his face did a new but passable imitation of a ripe tomato. “I - I mean there’s - there’s laws about - about indecent exposure and - I - “

“Three times, now. But from what I hear it’s probably just a temporary victory. And I’d hoped this would have finally put an end to it…”

There was a long, long silence. “….Well, if you want to try an absolute end of a person’s life… You can call me for that.”

“...what? No! No way, if I’d wanted to I could have. But... ending someone’s life like that just felt wrong.”

He shuddered.

“Even if it was what Dad wanted.”

“I’m very sure he knew that he cannot be saved. Since you’re alive, I presume that you’ve defeated Father. Your version, anyway.” “That’s enough to put him at rest.”

“…Seven, minimum.”  Snake didn’t count every attempt, and didn’t dare to.  “Only three, four of those sets are truly made by his hands, though -things only will get harder from here on out.”  But hearing Light want to wish death on another man… it was strange to Snake.  The Light he knew of hadn’t once considered this, from what he knew.  “…I think by convincing him not to want the death of Wily was a good thing.  Neither should want the other’s demise.  I only know Wily wanting to humiliate Light.  Though, I think all these fights are going to hurt everyone more than they were meant to in the end.”

He hoped Light wouldn’t go that far again - or at least, this Rock’s Light.  “…Be prepared for the worst.  If things continue, innocents will be dragged in like they were for what I know as the past.  And as time goes on, they won’t be just humans, but they won’t be brothers for either of us.”

...Seven. Rock groaned, feeling despair and frustration start to compete over making him miserable. “I... I really, really hope that my world’s an exception, in that case,” he said, eyes wide in very real horror.  “I’m not sure society, or Dr. Light, could take that many more attempts.”

To say nothing of himself - Rock was already tired of fighting, already so sick of being known as Death; what would seven more times do?” His hands clenched into fists, and he was thankful for once that he wasn’t human, since it kept them from shaking.

“It needs to stop. He needs to stop.”

Wait, she was lost? That actually sounded interesting. Definitely not as obnoxious and difficult to deal with as a reporter. “Oh, in that case, maybe I can help you work out where you…need…t-to…” He trailed off as he finally turned to look at the woman and belatedly registered her state of undress.

Face flaring up with a simulated blush that nearly reached his hairline, Rock’s optics widened as he squawked awkwardly and hid his face in one arm. “I - oh man, oh - man lady what are you - why are you in your underwear who gets lost in their underwear oh my god what is happening?!?”

“Wrong turns and the like happen.” His freak out was…a bit amusing. Not because he was distressed, but because he made such interesting faces. Especially over something that was just another layer of clothing. [Lingerie was pretty, yes, but she didn’t have the same stigma attached to it that so many others seemed to.]

“Wrong turns in your underwear don’t happen!” It was more a squawk than a proper protest, and the robot swallowed uncomfortably. “I - uh. Here just.

“I mean, if you’re comfortable and all that’s fine I - er. I’d just. It kinda makes it hard to um. Converse and. You’re a real’ pretty lady I um. I- “ Wow, he really couldn’t... talk properly right now. Maybe he was malfunctioning? He’d have to talk to Dr. Light later.
