“Wha- huh? Star? Bunny hop?”

He has many, many questions... but the main one happens to be:

“Wait! Who are you, exactly? I feel as though introductions are in order after all that. I'm Galaxy Man! And, uh, I just found this thing, honest! The Hop Star, huh..?”

《NC》
“...so THAT'S why my plating was chafing...”

《NC》
“Fume? I suppose swamp gas is a plausibility. But if so, it's worse than normal swamp gas.”

《NC》
“It was muddy. And surprisingly smelly, even for a swamp.”

“...does anybody else know what this thing is? Because I sure don't.”

《NC》
“...she scares me. And her swamp is yucky.”

《NC》
“Oh. Okay! Why are you frenemies with the crazy lady, though? She threatened to scrap me...”

《NC》
“I got reprogrammed by Dr. Wily once. But I remember fighting Rock twice, I think. I'm not sure, everything is like a nebula before Dr. Light fixed me back then.”

《NC》
“No, but we still hang out afterwards.”

He's rather innocent, this one.

《NC》
“Yeah, like Rock.”

That doesn't explain anything, Galaxy Man-

《NC》
“Oh.”

“That just sounds like me and my siblings-”

There's a bit more to it than that, but he's not entirely wrong..?

《NC》
“What's a frenemy?”

Oh, baby boy...

“Kirby...”

The little space boy says the name with disdain, before a little beep could be heard, followed by another salute.

“Thank you for the warning, new friend! I'll be sure to keep a lookout for this scoundrel of the stars...”

Galaxy Man balls his hands into fists, more ball-shaped than they already were, shaking one to the cosmos in rage.

“What is his name? I have to add you AND him to my registry, so I know what's what out in the universe, not just the solar system!”

Oh, no...

He had him hooked as soon as he spun the lie about the Sun and Moon. His childlike wonder clashes with logic for a moment, but then, he remembers he's talking to a clown he met in space.

“That's- that IS criminal! How has nobody ever caught him if he's been such an- an intergalactic menace?!”

“Pink creature?”

The naïve Robot Master listens intently, fidgeting with one of his antennae.

“How, exactly? Was he also a spacefarer?”

GASP-

“Is he a space CRIMINAL..?”

“Universe? Golly, I wish I could do that! But I have a job to do... an important one, at that! Rockets need me to launch- and that's a fact!”

“...I am a little jealous, though. You must meet a lot of interesting people...”

“would your name be, funny space clown?”

Cue an embarrassingly hi-pitched scream, before turning to the visitor with a few blinks and a salute.

“Howdy! I'm just stargazing right now. I missed my chance to parlay with the space station, so I'm more or less marooned unless I want to burn up in the atmosphere!”

“I'm Galaxy Man! What”

He's currently orbiting the moon.

He was actually calculating some trajectories and paths up here, but he missed the space station's last cycle. So he's just stargazing now.

Anyway, uh, funny spaceman.

Peer into the void with him.

I didn't really want to comment on it because I'm exasperated atp, but honestly I think the bulk of people shifting off back to hellsite bettered everyone's spaces, theirs included.

I wish no negativity towards anyone here. I just want to write the fun/silly fictions with friends, dude. </3

“Big brother, you of all people should know the sun and the moon aren't actually all that close to each other. Ergo, why would they ever actually be a couple?”

Ah, never change, space-boy. Never change.

“The cutest couple are the Earth and the Moon.”

A chrome toaster is not what the world needs. Not when that toaster could sooner be the next step in space travel.

“O- okay! I will! Thank you, Rock! I- I really appreciate it!”

The eyes on his screen have turned in to caret symbols, making him look like a smiling calculator.

[ ^^ ]

Goodness, no! At least not that Galaxy Man would admit.

“Ahah... well, yeah. You could say that. First I woke up in a junkyard, which really freaked me out, and then I flew away and crash landed in a swamp...”

“I've had a long day.”

Holy, and here Galaxy Man thought HE could go on forever. He has to wonder which of them could go on longer about their respective interests after this...

“Uh- sure! It sounds like you know your stuff! And, I mean, you're Mega Man! What can't you do if you put your mind to it?”

“You got it, big bro! I'll keep practicing, so that I can be like you if I need to be!”

D'aw...

“But, uh, I should probably see someone about maintenance first... I still feel stiff in the joints, and I'm afraid it might be rust... I'm too young to rust!”

I'm not exactly 100% right now, but I CAN provide Galaxy Man being a space goober. I imagine him acting a bit younger considering his DLN number, despite his intellect in regards to space travel.
