I'm going to pull your needles out with my bare hands.

Uh... I'm not sure if that's a threat or not but...

Can we not with giant robot on robot violence? The damage would be kind of ugly.

[Well this was random in the midst of all this space robot war dramas.

[Staring right back.

Because Cupid is a Highly Concerned Citizen.]

...hi?

Hi.

[He's not exactly that good at explaining things. So he just... yeah. Just awkward silence.]

So uh... any particular reason you want to rip something out of someone else?

[She's going to try talking anyway. Because she's a busybody.]

Well, a guy took my teammate's memories of us out of him. Sooo I'm gonna go kill him.

[Well, that's one way to explain the current happenings.]

And you're sure it was him?

[A pause, and then--]

Also have you considered, you know, not killing him?

[triggerhappycopter]

Only guy 'round with the brain needles. And the history of beating up my teammate and Captain.

[He tilts his head in consideration. Then shrugs.]

Nope.

[...oh brother.]

Okay... well, here's a thought. Have you tried just... asking him? To put it right, I mean?

[Spinister is well over five million years old. He doesn't usually act like it, but he does right about now.]

He can kill my friend if he gets into his head again. He can do worse n' that even.

[That gives her pause, and she considers for a moment.]

He can, but would he? But more importantly, is there any other way to undo whatever he did to your friend?

You think it's a nice mech that'd do this in the first place?

[He sighs and puts his chin on his hands.]

I could remove his surgical equipment and try to fix things myself.

... Don't think I got the mind for mnemosurgery though.

Don't know, honestly. Sometimes... even the best of beings do things that aren't considered 'nice'.

[But she sighs too, frowning.]

How is... can you tell me how it works? I mean, I'm no surgeon and I'm no robotics major, but maybe I can figure out a way to help?

[This at least was familiar territory.]

Well, you got these needles in your hand that can create a temporary neural bridge between two mechs. It's a two-way road. The person being injected usually ends up losing the fight though since they ain't normally got mnemosurgery training.

Once you're in, you can... pretty much do whatever you want. If you know what you're doing, you can do some pretty bad things.
