Mmm, I'd still tell me if I were you. Delilah is not a small woman. Muscles you may have, but only one of us was built with anti-human capabilities.

(PS: Yes, I do have to type it all out.)

1/3

[headlining]

Well. I have

[He just sends it like that. There's like a REALLY LONG PAUSE between this message and the next one.]

2/3

[headlining]

[oh, here comes the next message]

magic

3/3

[headlining]

ANYWAYS so I think I'm alright no need to worry or bring that up I can take care of it okay

[HAHAHAHA DON'T LOOK AT THE MAGIC USER BEHIND THE CURTAIN]

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[NUUUUUUUH-UH, HOLD UP.

He has to switch this to video. Keats needs to SEE the look on Mettaton's face.

He looks. Confused. And entertained. Both.]

No, hold up. I'm sorry, darling. Didn't you imply that you thought Magic didn't EXIST? Tell me! Before you get here.

...how do you use something you can't have?

[headlining]

[Okay, now he's switching it to video too, LET'S GO METTATON, LET'S DO THIS]

[He just looks really flustered, though.]

It's a long story! A really long story! It doesn't matter!

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[Theeeere's that face.

He blows it a kiss before getting comfortable in his chair.]

No no no, carrot-cake. I insist! I have ALL the time in the WORLD for you! Consider it a treat from one reporter to another!

[headlining]

[Is he blushing because of him getting worked up about magic or the kiss? Who knows!]

You said to come over right away! I'm hardly going to sit down and tell you the story of how I got these damn abilities!

[Except he probably totally is because Mettaton is just as stubborn as he is.]

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[Cute. Humans are so expressive.

Mettaton shrugs.]

Oh, do forgive me. How was I to know you were incapable of walking and talking at the same time?

[headlining]

[He scoffs at that.]

What, you want me to tell it to you on the way there? Are you insane? There's infected people out there, what do you want me to do, tell my autobiography to the zombies for their enjoyment too?

[ex_mettacrusher33]

Well, they DO seem awfully sad. Who knows? It could cheer them up!

[Pft. No. He shakes his head, clearly joking.]

You can go back to text, sweetheart. As much as I adore your face, it isn't necessary for your grandiose excuse.

[headlining]

Hmmmph. Whatever. It's easier to tell it rather than type it.

[THE LOUDEST LONG-SUFFERING SIGH]

It's not an excuse, it's just...I didn't have these abilities for too long, okay? I literally only got them before I came to ALASTAIR.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

So you just.

Magically forgot about them?

[Eh? Eeeeeeeeeeh?]

[headlining]

...

You know, I'm going to go to where you are even quicker so I can punch you in your damn face sooner, how about it?

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[What comes out of Mettaton's mouth could TECHNICALLY be considered a laugh, because. Well. That's what it is. More accurately, however, it's a hideous series of amused wheezes, complete with flailing hands, that's nowhere near the charming giggles he usually doles out.

Once he catches himself doing it, he just. COUGH. Nope. Moving on. That didn't happen.

...ahem.

He flips his hair over his shoulder and leans into his communications device.

Wink.]

Don't threaten me with a good time.

[headlining]

[Always, every time he talks with Mettaton, he wonders why he even bothers. The robot just always seems more than happy to rile him up. Why does he keep interacting with him if that always happens?]

That's your idea of a good time? [He huffs.] You're so bizarre.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[Mettaton swats at the "camera", trying his hardest not to go into that horrible, horrible laugh again. He's mostly succeeding.] It's a JOKE, cupcake. Liven up!

Although.

You never know...

[He's sticking his tongue out.]

[headlining]

[Keats' expression right now.]

Anyways, what were we even talking about? [TOTALLY NOT MAGIC, NO] You got some things for some article, huh?

[Look at him, trying to be sneaky by changing the subject!]

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[Pffffffffffffffhahahahaha that face is always worth it! Ooooh, don't start laughing, Mettaton. You are a rock. You are a professional.

Ah.]

Mmm, more like a bit of light collation. [He's checking his fingernails. Ugh, they're so beautiful...] I figured if I worded it as an "article", you'd be more inclined to help.

[headlining]

Honestly, it's better than nothing. [Ah, he should've expected it-] I've built my work on less. I just hope it's worth it.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

Well, you'll find out once you get here.

See you soon, Magic Boy.

[wow i ship it tbh]
