It was raining. He could finally get a chance to relax.
Villainy tended to be ridiculously stressful. Having various heroes barge in via the roof, then that Supernova bloke pops up and starts trying to kill you, then the Polaris lady pops in and begins beating the absolute crap out of the Supernova bloke with fire in her eyes (and fists)...
Then, on certain occasions, Lady Valor hops in, making another hole in the damn roof, and hops back out without even giving you a second look.
That schtick got old quickly.
He stared up at the ceiling of the base, hoping that the patch of small repairs he'd done would hold. It was only a block of wood that he'd stuck in there to try and hold off the oncoming storm that would hit the outskirts of the city.
Of course, he'd made his base on the outskirts, because there wasn't supposed to be much activity there, supposedly.
It was frustrating, to say the least.
Nevertheless, he scoured the cupboard for some type of container that would hold a decent amount of water if the patch began to leak. A bucket was found and taken out of it. Then the question of why the hell he was keeping a bucket in the bloody cupboard, of all places, dawned on him, and he spent a few minutes just staring at the wall.
Then he put the bucket under the shoddy patch of repairs he'd done, before quietly formulating a plan for the next day.
The plan was to figure out some way to call up Gaster, bribe him with pizza to come over and help out with repairs, socialize a little, and hopefully go back to doing the video editing thing that he was supposed to be doing.
Gaster could fix a lot of things, which is why he became a mechanic. So it probably wouldn't be too hard on him to fix that damn hole in the roof.
Wheatley felt exhausted just thinking about this, and opted to give the mechanic a quick text instead.
And yet they said rainy days were supposed to be relaxing.
Author Notes: The mobile website is hellish, and I just remembered that this prompt story exists, so now I gotta use this one instead. Arrrrgh.
Also, endless ear pain.
