He may be more FAAABULOUS than Frank, but nobody can stand up against Galactic Knight Z and Buttercup's COSMIC RADIATION COMBINATION ATTACK!

Disco? DISCO!?

Eh, rocket launchers and fists. Get in close as fast as you can as to diminish the rockets effectiveness. His movement system could be his undoing if you can reach him then knock him over, get him off balance and I think it will be over.

>>59104
No melee weapons, I see. Get in close fast, slash his tire, and then just keep away from the front of the launchers as you take him out piece by piece.

He uses a single wheel to move chances are there will be a momentary delay to aim right before he launches the missiles or else he will be knocked off balance. Either way in both cases they give you a brilliant oportunity to strike.

You know, to a certain extent, this is actually reminding me of Front Mission. The Fightmachs are really just Chibi-Wanzers.

...On that note, I have this amazing idea for arming Buttercup with a missile launcher...

Renardo Laboop? Seriously? Poor guy.

Dodge them rockets, you know you can.

Push him over.

Claw the wheel! If it's filled with air, you might be able to pop it!

Also, can you draw it out? Maybe we should give the people a show?

In that case claw the rocket launchers. Unless they're single shot. Then rip an arm.

"You alright, Buttercup? Looks like your eye's taken some damage.

Now give a message to the audience. Remind them to allways believe in themselves and to follow their dreams, etc.

Looks like Buttercup got one of her eyes knocked out by a missile. Gotta see to that.

>>59140
Rustle her hair while congratulating her.

I'm sure that treating Buttercup like some strange mix of tool, pet and person will have absolutely no negative long-term repercussions.

Well, I just won some money, much more than the previous match because this match was actually part of the tournament, so I can buy her a new head. Or any other parts, of course.

>>59152
Ask her what parts she would need that are within our current price range that she would desire for purposes of optimizing her form towards her abilities and combat preferences.

>>59152
ask her if something is wrong she seems a little depressed.

>>59152

Well, we'll have to start with a new eye, naturally. Maybe we can also get her some sleeker leg parts so she'll have better maneuverability.

Pauldrons! For da Emprah!

>>59157
>Sleeker legs for better movement

And other things, of course. ;3

Last time I asked her what she preferred she said 'slow and steady' because she wants to avoid relying on her reaction speed. Today she turtle'd in by staying low and using her reinforced shoulder plates, so I'm guessing she'd like something like that. She made no mention about melee or ranged, though.

Even stronger shoulders and better legs sounds good, but we gotta be careful not to try and give her heavier armor while also trying to make her go faster.

Hmm..

>"What's wrong? You seem depressed."
>"[I am confused. Am I not enough to win, that you require a 'good luck charm' from Esmeralda?]"

>>59164

"I just said that to be cute. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously."

>>59164

Buttercup, YOU'RE my good luck charm.

>>59166
Besides, it's part of the goofy outfit I need to wear.

>>59164
"I need both of you at my side for good luck."

>>59164
It's not that silly. We both know luck doesn't exist, but if somebody you care about trusts you to win, don't you feel all the more motivated to do it?

Though admittedly you do most of the work here... but Esmeralda cheers for me and i cheer for you.

>>59170
"Every little bit helps! Maybe you would've gotten hurt worse without it, right?"

>>59164
Well you see Buttercup, I want to hit that.
I will do whatever stupid shit she wants so I can hit that.

>>59179
Buttercup will take this literally and you know it.

>>59164
"Of course you are. But it makes Esme happy for me to wear it. Besides, it looks damn sexy on me."

>>59164
Luck is the belief that there are forces beyond our own abillity to control, some call it god others may call it fate. It wasn't so much as to insure victory as it was to insure nothing bad beyond our control would happen to me or you.

It is a man's duty to carry a token into battle.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
So, perhaps a new eye, but there's nothing else I want to change.

>>59194

"We can repair her all we want, but it won't alter her behavior"

Ruffle her hair. "And I wouldn't have it any other way~"

>>59194
I wouldn't fix Buttercup for the world.

"I like her this way. I'd rather have Buttercup here by my side than any one of those spirit-lacking robots against us. You should get to know her, she's pretty unique. I'm sure you both would make great friends. She is here to see the... err, Buttercup, may I tell her about what you want in life? We're a team after all."

"Wh... what other conversations have you heard?"

YESSS MAXIMUM AWKWARDNESS

>>59197
>>59201
Naw.

>>59194
Oh, yes, speaking of fixing... We seem to go through heads pretty quickly. Let's see if we can't get ahold of some form of reinforced head.

I think you should get Esmeralda to promise to keep the secret... and if she does explain the situation. I think it'd be good for Buttercup to have contact with more than one human anyway.

>>59206
Perhaps a helmet similar to the one Frank uses, so she doesn't have to be all armored all the time.

Okay, stronger shoulders and a helmet? That sounds perfect! I'll buy Buttercup the necesarry parts for fixing her eye so we don't need to get her a new one. She worked so hard on this one after all.

Slot some rockets into that chest as well.
Melee is all well and good, but you never know when ranged combat could come in handy, just as an option if nothing else.

>"...Hey, Franky, did you know 'gullible' isn't in the dictionary?"

But 'Nagging' and 'Shrew' are.

I think they should have a conversation.

Needs a little less on the legs and a little more on the chest. Then it'll be perfect.

A right hand could be good too, just gotta be able to attach the claw for combat.

Well, don't you have anything she can borrow until you get something of her own? Or do you only have that suit?

Also, now picture her as one of those tsundere tomboy types.
