Sure, why not. Let's put a bee in his bonnet.

oh man im watching this thread waiting for a response and i just realised i forgot to post this ahaha sorry go ahead guys

Yeah lets go with Hornet Man.

...It really is hard not to use a pun here.

>>18087403
The puns are back? HEY GUYS THE PUNS ARE BACK! GET THE FUCK IN HERE!

>>18087448

Something bugging you?

Sorry, sorry, I'll just bugger off.

I'll bee quiet.

You find Hornet Man just chillin' out readin' a book.

BORING

>>18087481
Can't have that. Let's pest-er him a bit.

Sneak up behind him and read over his shoulder until he notices us.

>>18087481

Find out what he's reading, attempt to create conversation.

You begin reading over his ridiculously sized shoulders, and find he is reading Fahrenheit 451. After a few seconds Hornet Man asks if he can help you with anything.

>>18087590
kiss the stinger on top of his helmet.

>>18087590
"Oh sorry. Am I bugging you?"

You apologize for disturbing him and kiss his stinger.

He's like uh what the hell.

Is it over? I wanted to see it through to completion... Aww...

>>18088307
The thread can't continue unless people give commands!

Do a wisdom check on the book and ask him if that's the first time he's read it.

You ask Hornet Man if he's read the book before, and do a Wisdom check on it.

He has not, and begins to explain the premise. Fahrenheit 451 is a science fiction story that portrays a society of fairly uneducated highly controlled idiots who fear different opinions. Most frequently viewed as a slam against censorship the book is more accurately speaking out against laziness and technology replacing social and emotional input. It follows Guy Montag, a fireman who is paid to burn books. It's some pretty heavy stuff, and a little creepy how accurate its predictions turned out to be.

In as charming a way as possible, ask about his opinions on the book, trying to look genuinely interested.

You ask about his opinion of the book, he says its pretty cool, and genuinely spooky how much foresight this book had.

>>18088933
Don't you find it kind of ironic how we; machinery meant to replace mankind, are made with some sort of mockery of those same feelings; and furthermore, that the inclusion of these feelings is not in a vie to go back to feelings of "Vitality" and "purpose" that Huxley seemed to hint at with John in "Brave New World" but rather as a way to provide even more energy to utilitarian and ultimately pragmatical ends?

Anyway, let's fuck.

>"Don't you find it kind of ironic how we; machinery meant to replace mankind, are made with some sort of mockery of those same feelings; and furthermore, that the inclusion of these feelings is not in a vie to go back to feelings of "Vitality" and "purpose" that Huxley seemed to hint at with John in "Brave New World" but rather as a way to provide even more energy to utilitarian and ultimately pragmatical ends? ...Anyway, let's fuck."

He says he's a bit ashamed to admit that he's never read Brave New World, though it's been on his list for a long time and well you know how it is wait what was that last part?

>>18089491
Let's fuck. I mean, if you want to. It's good to take a break now and then, rest your eyes, and get some of the rust out.

> stretch, attempting sexy pose

You know what I mean?

You elaborate and attempt sexy pose, which you totally succeed, but I just can't draw.

Hornet Man is all over that.

YOU GOT THE....

What?

This is ridiculous.

I can't beelieve this.

WELL WHATEVER, hey you unlocked a new special event! Nifty.

Oh well, where to next?

>>18089762
A robot master attack, a deadly bee weapon...
Bees. My god.

>>18089762
Query: Do we actually switch in the presence of our partner when we get their weapon?

>>18089774
>WHATEVER, hey you unlocked a new special event! Nifty.
Go do it! I wanna see.

>>18089780
I'm going to have to say no as it would sort of damage the whole Stalker mechanic.

Or you can assume that she switches weapons reflexively when she climaxes.

>>18089823
In that case: Inform Hornet Man that he was unbeelievable before you leave.

You take the Special Event.

A black wind blows through you, and you lose consciousness.

>>18089894
Im sure that took awile to draw

You wake up mid-stride, about to walk into some kind of death trap.

AH SHIT

>>18089894
WAIT WHAT NO WHAT REGAIN CONSCIOUSNESS

This isn't what I wanted at all!

>>18089915
Morrigan, status report!

Self, stop walking into pits. And why are you blushing? Seriously, stop that.

>>18089915
>>18089924
More importantly, why is she red?

>>18089915
GOD DAMN ROBOT AIDS

>>18089940
Theory is that a Stalker just took over, that's why I'm calling on Morrigan. Whatever it did, it probably involved changing colour in front of everyone.

You ask what all this shit is about and try your DAMNEDEST to not walk into a pit.

It's really quite a strain.

MORRIGAN explains that DEMITRI activated and assumed direct control, caused you to switch weapons, join some kind of weird robot harem, and then walk off into this pit.

MORRIGAN is working as hard as possible to stop you from making yourself dead, but it's difficult.

>>18089951
Called it.

See if you can pop into your own head and help out with the whole 'preventing DEMITRI from killing us' thing.

>>18089990
Can we do that without being gibbed by spikes?

>>18089979
so thatts makeup and blush.
Weeelp

>>18090025
We can try! It beats watching Morrigan get raped and then getting gibbed anyway.

>>18089979
I told you about unprotected robot sex.

I warned you dawg.

You ask MORRIGAN if you can go into your own mind Psychonauts-style and help her out without getting gibbed by spikes.

MORRIGAN reports that you probably can't, and recommends doing something to boost your resistance to the control DEMITRI's exerting.

>>18090060
Fucking fuck. What weapon are we even on at the moment? If not base, switch to base.

Balls.
Well, if Legend of Zelda taught me anything, you use the item you just got
So switch to the Bees. Let's chase DEMITRI out of our mind.

>>18090072
It looks like Turbo Man's Flame Wheel. Probably useless at this point.

It also is probably a hint. Whatever is controlling us got a boost by exploiting Turbo Man's weakness, which means it's a noise-themed robot master.

Which, of course means... Shade Man.

>>18090060
Quick, think about free market and personal property!

>>18090092
Which means we need to switch to a weapon not weak to shade man. Switch back to base.

>>18090092
>>18090103
Or we could just be a scarlet woman now. That's the sort of visual pun the OP would work in.

>>18090110
it also could be both.

Considering we have arm blades, it sort of fits that a vampire robot would be Dimitri.

>>18090084
>>18090060
Wouldn't work. Lesse, Quickman should turn her red. Let's try switching to something effective against that. since he's weak to the Megabuster; try witching to her base weapon.

>>18090092
Turbo Man is also weak to spikes on the ground, if I know my Mega Mans.
He's also weak to Junk Shield - i.e. a big heavy piece of crap.

>>18090138
Fuck, it all adds up. WELP, someone who knows the weaknesses, shift us to something strong against Shade Man.

>>18090146
>http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Shade_Man

Wild Coil
Slash Claw
Rolling Cutter
Switch to something that can Cut Shit Up.

>>18090138
You're thinking of Nitro Man and Freeze Man respectively.

Turbo Man's only weakness is something louder than he is.

If it IS shade man though, we should switch to Wild Coil, his weakness.

>>18090163
> Something that can cut shit up

Yeah, base form should be fine.

>>18090146
If I remember correctly(and I don't think so,it's been at least 10 years since i replayed 7), it should be Spring Man.

Funny how everybody suddenly showed up to post again.

>>18090171
Has the add benefit or working against Quickman; if the virus forces BW to switch to the Stalker's weapon. So let's not, we need to pinpoint the fucker.

You switch back to your default weapon, and it gives you the edge needed to step back from that ledge my friend, but it seems DEMTRI is still exhibiting a small amount of influence.

>>18090194
Switch to Wild Coil.

CONFIRM THESE SUSPICIONS.

>>18090194
IGNORE SPLASH WOMAN. There's no need to get distracted yet. Not until we're well away from it.

Switch again, attempt to pinpoint the fucker.

>>18090194
Spring time.
If it's Shade man, then Wild Coil stops it.

http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Turbo_Man
You could also try Junk Shield to counter Turbo Man (if the virus forces a switch to the Stalker's weapon), or check if it's someone else abusing Turbo Man's weakness by switching to Quick Boomerang (Quickman shares many of Turbo Man's traits, but is not weak to noise).

>>18090194
"Oh, uh, hey - SHITCUNTFUCK - mind lending a hand?
Unless, of course, this is your - ROBOTJESUSOHGODWHY - doing, in which case back off, yeah?
DAMMITSHITFUCKS seriously though I could use some help if you're not murdering me."

>>18090277
What? Dude. No. It's pretty obvious she's in the same boat you just found yourself in, just without the 'spikes' thing. The only reason she didn't change was because she had nothing to change to.

If the STALKER at all compels her actions, she'll have to help you INTO the pit.

You switch to Wild Coil, which confirms the hell out of your suspicions as it allows you to restore DEMITRI to a dormant state.

PHEW, you're totally hella safe. That was close!

>>18090288
> that post
>>18090289
> that one

Fuck, why was I right.

To explain further, the drinking puts what happened out of her mind. The fucking everyone is a function of the STALKER - you'll note that one of the first things it did was put you into a harem.

>>18090289
QUICK, TURN AROUND AND SLAP SOME SENSE INTO LESBIAN BLUE SATAN

>>18090289
BACKFLIP , SHE's UNDER ITS CONTROL ASWELL

>>18090289
Aw shit. It looks like Splashwo man is either going to push us into the pit, or jump in herself.
Hit her with a Wild Coil, AND rush her, pushing her backwards.

>>18090289
DEM EYES
She's hypnotized.
Or... whatever.

>>18090307
> hit her with a wild coil
now THIS is an idea! If she's at all trying to shake it off, it should help. If it's not, we can just keep shooting her.

After this is done, we are SO killing the fuck out of Shade man.
Is it a wise, or stupid, idea to ask Cut Man if he wants to help us? 2 is better than 1, Cut Man has a virus as well and may want a piece of Shade Man, and Cut Man's weapon is effective vs. Shade Man.

>>18090340
Not to mention we can use this as a basis of finding other robot masters that are STALKERS.

>>18090340
>>18090369
Getting a bit ahead of ourselves, aren't we?

>>18090372
not really. The command is already set, just waiting for OP. And tell me. I mean, look me in the eyes and TELL ME WITH CERTAINTY that Pharaoh Man isn't infected with Anakaris.

>>18090372
Shutup Shade Man.

>>18090383
I can't tell you with certainty that he isn't, the same way that you can't tell me with certainty that he is.

>>18090383
fuck does this mean Hornet Man was infected with Queen Bee?

Fuck. FUCK.

You turn around to take a moment to think about this and ohmygodsplashwomanwhatthefuck

You narrowly dodge a laser trident to the chest, a real feat. Seriously, I wouldn't count on stuff like that too much with as little Skill as you have.

You can also see the robot harem behind her, as well as a very proud looking Shade Man.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

>>18090411
Can we panic over what might bite us in the ass in the future after we deal with what might bite us in the ass right now?

Tossing in another vote for "Shoot her!"

>>18090417
Spam Wild Coil everywhere. Might help Splashwo man snap out of it, might hit Shade Man and disrupt his control.

>>18090417
Huh. Yeah, start tossing out Wild Coils. We'll tell you when to stop.

Yell out "I FUCKING KNEW IT."

"WHY YOU GOTTA BE LIKE THIS, ASSHOLE."

>>18090417
>Bass
>That Girl from Cave Story

UNLEASH THE BEES

>>18090417
>get mad, i mean REAL mad, and yell SHAAAAADEEE MAAAAN and casualy stride over to him dealing with anyone that gets in the way, one way or the other. Shooting your gun at him any way you can.

>>18090436
haha you know i thought the same thing when i finished drawing that character, that it looked a lot like Curly Brace

it is not

>>18090451
Gotta be Roll then. Who's the other one - the dude in red with the hat?
Anyway, wildcoils. all the wildcoils.

>>18090417
WHOAWHOAWHOAWHOA!!! Wait, back out a goddamn second. BASS IS A SHE!?

Aight, Sparkles, what's the goddamn deal? They are your thralls?

> shooting Shade Man
I question whether that will be possible with his STALKER inside us.

>>18090451
YOU SMOKIN SOME CRACK, BOY
I KNOW CURLY WHEN I SEES HER
MOSTLY FROM ALL THAT RULE 34 I LOOK AT
Seriously though that looks like Curly and Quote.

>>18090478
>BASS IS A SHE!?
Or just that much of a bitch

>>18090478
What, you've never experimented?

>>18090502
>4chan
>any sex
well there's your problem

>>18090516
Relax. You can have sex and also use 4chan. It just has to either be with an underage woman or an underconfident, effeminate man.

You shoot Splash Woman with a Wild Coil, this stuns her at least.

You consider going after Shade Man, Bass, Roll, and... Plum from Battle & Chase? Wow I am really reaching for references here. Whatver yeah, you consider going after then but then Shade Man changes weapons and suddenly you really feel like jumping in that big spiky pit seriously that just sounds AWESOME.

>>18090525
I'm pretty sure that there's a bigger spectrum of homosexual men around here than just fake-lady-lovers.
Also, didn't Chris Hansen have a chat with all of the first category-folk?

>>18090542
And thus begins the elaborate dance. Morrigan, think you can lock the stalker back up or off it while we deal with the external threats?

>>18090542
That's probably rolling cutter, which means he's seen Cut Man as well. Switch to Plug Man

>>18090542
>>18090417
>>18090289
>>18089979
>>18089894
>grey... .Fuck...... plugmen

>>18090542
Grey and White. Who's weapon is that...
I was thinking "Junk man" but no, Junk man sucks vs. Spring Man.

>>18090578
Spring Man is weak to Slash Man. Slash Man gives a cutting weapon. Rolling Cutter is primary gray and is also a cutting weapon. It's rolling cutter.

FUCK YES I KNEW LEARNING ALL THIS SHIT WOULD PAY OFF ONE DAY

>>18090542
Rolling Cutter. It's Rolling Cutter. He's Cutman now!
Cutman is weak to: Being hit in the face with heavy things.
Cutman is strong against: Electricity
So, Plug Man is going to be a retarded idea.

What type of Heavy Things of hit in the faceitude do we have?

>>18090594
We have Hard Man and Guts Man.

Guts is countered by bombs.

Hard is countered by magnets and/or possibly bombs.

I say we go with guts.

>>18090542
He's Cut Man.
Switch to Guts Man's Ass
er, Guts Man's Weapon!

>>18090594
Pretty sure we have Hard Man. ROCKETO PAAANCH.

>>18090542
Does this mean Shade man had sex with Cut man?

>>18090610
There are no heavy objects to throw around here. I say HardMan.

>>18090628
Different STALKERS transmit different ways. Though if someone wants to make fanart...

>>18090634
Is Splashwo Man a heavy object?

>>18090628
For all we know, Shade Man transmits through song and dance.

>>18090667
I'm going to go ahead and guess 'vampire bite'

>>18090635
I'm really going to regret it if I google around for fan-art and find nothing but pictures of Shade Man fucking Cut Man.

WELL, HARD MAN OR GUTS MAN WHICH ONE GUYS?

>>18090692
HARD MAN.

>>18090692
HADO MAN

>>18090692
RACKET PANCH

>>18090692
Harold "Hard Man" Hardrada!

GUTSHARDMAN

>>18090714
Mike "Hard Man" Ross

Switch to the same thing he's using! It'll weaken his hold on you, and you don't have to attack him directly yet, just get by the meatshields!

He's probably aiming to run you out of weapon energy or discover holes in your defense.

Yellow Devil Man!

Seriously, though. Would it be possible to activate MORRIGAN and get an ongoing scan of his weaknesses? See if they all shuffle or if he remains weak to a weapon.

I'd say, draw him into an electric weapon, get him to shoot, switch to Spring Man and wreck his shit up.

we need to find out if we can control him like he's controlling us. I mean, he's infected right?

You switch to the Hard Knuckle AND YEAAH-HA AH FUCK

He deflected it with some kind of shield.

...and here comes Roll, ready to defend her vampire master or whatever.

shade man why are you always predator-ing on chicks

>>18090765
Unlikely. As far as we know, MORRIGAN is just glorified spyware.

>>18090765
Definitely an idea, but how would we get the time to try?

>>18090774
Dust man.

Crush Roll.

Hold her in our arms.

Cry to the heavens, demanding to know what we are fighting for.

>>18090794
we don't have dust man. we DO have junk man

>>18090784
Independent AI. Let it run on the background.

>>18090774
Who's blue and white and has a shield?

>>18090816
It's skull barrier. Just look at it.

>>18090816

>>18090827
Fancy. How do we crack skulls? Or alternately, what gets around shields?

>>18090840
We have Junk Shield.
Dust crusher > Skull man, and Shield = Shield
So we basically just walk up to him and say "sup bro"
Now, what beats Roll? If she's anything like Mega Man, Mega Man gets absolutely fucking OWNED by spikes and electricity.

>>18090860
Any robot master > Roll. Don't worry about beating roll, we're fighting to not jump into a pit of spikes.

>>18090860

As punny as this is going to be, get some fucking ROCKS in there.

>>18090774
"Cute, I guess you let him BONE you."

Question his sexuality! lure him into revealing the details of his Stalker.

>>18090877
We should try not to hurt her, at least.

...I wonder if there is a benefit to infecting non-wily bots? Hmm.

>>18090877
In b4 she has the ability to switch weapons and shanks us as we go by.

>>18090912
Well, we know Bass does at least.

THE MIXUPS AND MINDGAMES ARE OFF THE SCALE.

You switch to the Junk Shield and try to just walk past Roll when it suddenly occurs to you how RETARDED it is that you tried to ignore a cleaning robot by using a weapon made out of trash.

She promptly slaps your shit.

>>18090942
GOD DAMMIT SON OF A BITCH FUCK EVERYTHING. ASTRO CRUSH THESE FOOLS

>>18090942
Rolling for grapple.

>>18090942
THAT FUCKING SCRUB!

NO MORE GAMES! DESTROY HER WITH JAPAN'S MISOGYNY! Wait, that wouldn't work.

ASTROMAN, CRUSH THEM ALL! LEAVE NO SURVIVORS!

>>18090942
>junk sheild
>cleaning robot
>someone wasnt useing logic

>>18090942
So she's a cleaning robot?
... Break the bitch in half with Hard Knuckle.

>>18090968
I would also like to make the case that Astro Crush > Skull Barrier, not because it's a bunch of junk, but that it is a very heavy high velocity attack.

>>18090942
We've got Guts man right? Throw her ass at Shade man.

YOU BRING DOWN THE ASTRO CRUSH

Which Shade Man counters with ASTRO CRUSH

CRUSH THEM ALL! WITH ASTROLOGY!

>>18091041
Keep him on the defensive! See if you can close with him. If you can, a single point-blank of whatever he's weak to when you get close should do some damage, at least psychologically.

>>18091041

OH GOD DAMMIT, FUCK.

>>18091041
Switch to Hornet Man. RELEASE THE BEES. GIRLS ARE AFRAID OF BEES RIGHT?

BEEEEEES!

>>18091041
FUCK

CONTINUE BRINGING DOWN THE PAIN! We may not be able to hurt each other, but the same doesn't hold for his hussies.

>>18091051
> close with him
I support this, only because it's the option that gets us further away from SPIKES.

DRILL BOMBS, DRILL BOMBS EVERYWHERE!
NO SURVIVORS!

YOU SUMMON THE BEEEEEEES

Which Roll runs the fuck away from.

>>18091101
Oh dear, we're going to be KILL BY FIRE now.

>>18091117
Preemptively switch to Pump Man!

>>18091101
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
S

>>18091101

The only reaction to pissed off hornets is FIRE.
Best switch to some WATER something lest we get burned.

>>18091141
Actually, more fire themed robot masters are weak to frost than water. Freeze Man is a better option.

You're really enjoying watching your bro play the game, when he abruptly pauses it and walks away. You ask what he's doing, and he says it's 1:30 AM, he's got shit to do in the morning. You ask how the HELL he can pause in the middle of a boss fight, shit's just getting good.

He says he doesn't care, he's got stuff to do tomorrow.

WELL FUCK

He says he'll be back on tomorrow, it can stay on until then.

MAN WHAT A DOUCHE

>>18091123
>>18091141
Better yet. Pump Man THEN SHOOT. With some luck, BW's shoot will out-prioritize? his weapon.

>>18091165
Unpause and fuck up his game. That'll show his to be such a bitch.

(I love you Bizarro)
