Gibson: Well, Reza won't be joining us this time, either… she's still paralyzed.

Antauri: I am not apologizing. She attacked me.

Otto: She hugged you, Antauri. You overreacted.

Antauri: *floaty pout*

Nova: Well! A big thanks to pikurosonai00 for the wonderful review! I'm glad you enjoy the boys being idiots as much as I do.

SPRX: And Jasper Dragonfly! We share a hatred of Valeena… ;D

Chiro: Well… hehe… let's just read the words.

Camel:

"Hey, look." Chiro pointed off at a trio of camels, "Maybe we can ride them back into the town!"

"Be careful, Chiro!" Antauri called out as the boy ran off with SPRX and Otto.

Gibson, Nova, and Antauri all stuck out their tongues in disgust as the camels defended themselves and spat on their teammates.

"That is so gross." Nova groaned.

"Agreed." Antauri shuddered.

"At least we were smart enough not to join them." Gibson smirked, "Hey, Sparky, you have something on you!"

Beat:

Antauri smiled, looking at Gibson, "This is rather fun…"

Gibson grinned, "Isn't it? This not only helps us find new skills, but it introduces us to something new and helps us work together as a team rather than individuals."

"Nice job, Brainstain!" SPRX grinned, "You did something right!"

Otto twirled the neon green drumsticks in his hand, "Come on, let's practice before Chiro gets back! I wanna surprise him!"

"Alright, Otto." Antauri smiled, pulling the strap of his brand new silver electric guitar over his head.

Nova smiled, grabbing her golden bass and handing SPRX his red and white stripped electric. Gibson took his electric blue keytar and strapped it on, smiling.

"Let's do this!"

Search Warrant:

Ah, yes, yet another pairing. Ahem… Pairing warning: Antauri/… *blush* Mr. Hal Gibson…

Another one of us, Hal…

"Antauri, open this door!" Gibson yelled.

No response.

"Don't think I won't break this door down, because I will! Otto can easily build a new one!"

The door didn't open. Gibson glared at it… the only thing blocking him from Antauri.

"Why are you pouting like a child, Antauri? Just open the door and talk to me!"

"No."

Finally! There was hope after all! Antauri was speaking!

"Why not?" Gibson asked, putting as much emotion into his voice as he could.

"I failed the team…"

"Open the door, Antauri. Please?"

"No."

Holy crap, did someone need a search warrant to get into Antauri's room?

"You have two choices. Open it yourself, or go a couple of days without a door, because I'm ready to cut it down." He activated his drill.

After a moment, the door slid open, revealing a reluctant silver monkey.

"Happy?"

Gibson smiled, "Very." He deactivated his weapon and walked in, letting the door slide shut behind him. "How did you fail the team, Antauri?"

"I had the chance, Gibson. I could have destroyed the Skeleton King's head when I dismembered it from the Dark One worm. I could have saved the entire universe from Skeleton King, but I let the opportunity slip by me." He paused, "But… I didn't. I let him remain in this universe and failed you all."

Gibson paused, "Is that what this is about? Antauri… first of all, it's not your fault. None of us blame you, let alone know. We never even thought of blaming you. Have we ever blamed one of us for something out of our reach?"

Antauri paused.

"Did you blame me for becoming infected with the virus Thingy brought? Did we blame Chiro for trusting the Sun Riders? We're not going to blame you, Antauri." He chuckled.

"What's so funny?"

"It's just… it seems… you've become more emotional with this new body."

Antauri frowned, not responding.

"See, now you're all pouty." Gibson smiled, "It's absolutely endearing!" He walked over and kissed Antauri on the cheek, "You're so cute."

"I fail to see how my being emotional is cute."

"I meant your pout is cute… but your emotions are cute, too… especially when you're trying to impress me."

Faith:

Yay! Another pairing with me! I feel so special! Who is it this time? Okay, let's see… Pairing warning, blah blah blah… me, Otto, the wonderful green monkey and… oh! Otto/SPRX-77! This'll be fun.

Antauri once told me that I have to have faith in myself. To trust my instincts and just go with what feels right… but he was talking about battle then. Does that apply now, when everything is calm? Everything but my head, that is.

"Hey, SPRX, what's up?"

Otto… my head started pounding and I had to stop. He looked so cute and innocent, smiling like a child… a child covered in motor oil.

"Sorry I'm kinda messy… Just fixin' up the engines! Why are you standing outside my door?" his smile was absolutely adorable.

"Well… I want to tell you something…"

He smiled, "Okay!"

'Have faith in yourself, SPRX… you can do this…'

"I… I…"

"You okay, Sparky?" Otto asked.

I shook my head, Trying to clear my head, "I… I love you, Otto."

He paused, "What?"

I bit my lip, waiting for the inevitable shock and rejection.

"Wow! I never thought you'd return my feelings, I thought you were dead set on Nova!"

I paused, "Wait, what?"

"Well, thanks, Sparky, but I gotta hurry before the engines explode… again!"

I grabbed his wrist and placed a quick kiss to his cheek. He smiled, grabbing his tools and returning it before running off.

Playpen:

"Aww… you're so cute." Otto smiled, "Hey, kitty kitty… I built you something!"

Gibson watched as otto walked out of his transport tube and into the room.

"Otto, what is this?" he asked.

"A playpen for the kitty the rescued!" he grinned, holding up the creature.

The kitten mewled, licking Gibson's cheek.

"Ugh… just keep it away from me and my lab."

"You got it! Here you go, Fuzzy." He placed the kitten in its new pen, watching it play, "Aww… how cute…"

Revenge:

Gibson paused, "Wait a minute… revenge wasn't on the word generator list."

Otto shrugged, "Maybe Reza was saving it for something special."

Chiro looked around, "Has anyone seen Antauri?"

"I haven't seen him since this morning." Nova answered.

"And he was called out of training early." SPRX pointed out.

"I've got him."

The five turned and paused.

"Oh, Reza, you've got him!" Chiro smiled.

"Let me go, woman!" Antauri struggled against her grip.

Reza glared at the silver monkey in her arms, "You hurt me, Antauri. As adorable as you are, I won't let that go unpunished. I'm using my amazing writing skills and taking away your powers. You're stuck in my hug all day!"

Antauri struggled as best he could, trying to get out of her grip, "Can someone help me!"

"Psh, no." Nova laughed, "I think this is hilarious."

"Someone who can outdo Antauri." Chiro chuckled.

"And I'm smarter that to attack the girl with the keyboard controlling us at the moment." SPRX smirked.

"And it's only a day, Antauri." Gibson crossed his arms, "And you did immobilize her for almost two whole chapters."

Otto smiled, "I wanna hug, too! Group hug!"

Camel- Ha, it feels good to be doing these again… this time, the Team is stranded on a desert planet and Chiro spots camels to help them get to a village they'd heard of! Saliva ensues. XD

Beat- They're a Super Robot Monkey band! 8D

Search Warrant- Antauri's all pouty and upset and Gibson cheers him up with a little fluff!

Faith- Awww… see, Otto? I love pairings with you, they're always cute.

Playpen- Otto is so adorable!

Revenge- Yep. I got my revenge, and my hug. You don't mess with the author, fool.

Antauri: *glare*

Don't hate me, Antauri! You're amazing, I just wanted a hug! Please don't hate me!

Gibson: What's going on?

ANTAURI HATES ME! WAAAAAH! *cries in her emo corner*

Otto: … Antauri?

Antauri: … *sigh* I don't hate you, Reza…

Really! 8D

Antauri: No… I don't hate you.

AH! THANK YOU, ANTAURI! I LOVE YOU!

Chiro: Reviews can be used to suggest pairings you like.

Nova: Even ones already used!

SPRX: But flames burn Suggazoom to a crisp!
