Entry 1 - [Audio - Open]

Hello?  I think my tamer is really hurt, and I don't know how to fix him.  He won't get up, and he keeps whimpering.  I think he's some type of machine, and he's really heavy.

Could you say something so that maybe we can get you help that's familiar with your kind?  What are you?

*quietly*  I'm a robot.  My name is Centaur Man.  Left foreleg is no longer functioning as well as other damage.

Thank you for your concern, Heat. It's a bit more than I'd expect from one of Wily's creations. Then again, there's a lot of things different here from what I'm used to.

That seems a little rude, Cen.

Well we fought on the same side, in a way, once.

Don't worry he's not mad.

[dontrideme]

Not by my own choosing, Heat. I never wanted to hurt people. Never wanted to fight like that. That was all Wily's doing.

Good. I'm still trying to get the whole story of things from him. It's not easy.

It's just my reason for not being mean.

...then again I'd only be mean to Mega Man if Wily told me to, too. Huh.

What'cha got so far?

[dontrideme]

I guess there are exceptions in every group. You probably are one for your kind. My apologies for my rudeness before. I should not hold you responsible for the actions of your maker.

Most of it was secondhand information from the ones that helped and some pieces from his mutterings. Something about a person named Wily stealing him and forcing him to fight. And that he was afraid of the person's creations enough to risk further injury in an attempt to escape. He won't talk about where he came from now that he's not panicked from pain.

No, you're right. I've done bad stuff before.

Oooh that sounds cool! Who'd he fight?

[dontrideme]

Was there really much of a choice on whether or not to do those things for you, Heat?

All things considered, probably the same opponent your tamer was fighting if they were on the same side once. Though I can't figure out what he'd done before that. I would have thought fighting from how he looks...

[12000atomicfire.livejournal.com]

I don't have much of a choice really.

Ohhh! The Mega Man!

Just Mega Man.

[dontrideme]

Then, we have something in common, and you are no more responsible for what you did under his orders than I was.

At any rate, it's going to take a long time to get him willing to talk. He still is nervous at having me around. Actually, that's why he was hurt in the first place.

[12000atomicfire.livejournal.com]

I have to. What I think doesn't matter.

Woah you beat up your tamer?

[dontrideme]

I wish that weren't the case. You seem to be a nice person.

I only jumped on his back. How was I supposed to know he'd react so badly?

[12000atomicfire.livejournal.com]

...Thanks. Centaur Man.

...but you're like, a lion!

[dontrideme]

You're welcome, Heat.

I don't think I'm that scary. Besides, he is big enough to hold the weight. He also wasn't listening to me when I tried talking to him. I kept trying and he kept staring at everything around him but me.

[12000atomicfire.livejournal.com]

...should we just let them yammer now?

Maybe he's just a big wuss.

Shh, Sunny.

[dontrideme]

Probably. Better than the thing getting on my case with more questions.

You have a point there. He does get startled easily, at any rate. Going to have to work on that.
