Hi shippers! Welcome to Bonus Round 2.
Round Robin Fanadventures generated so much awesome stuff last year that we decided to bring it back!

For those who are new to HSO, this is not actually that complicated a concept, but it might be a little tricky to explain, so bear with me. The point of this round is to create a bunch of fanadventures that are for a team other than your own.

Rules

If you are starting a new adventure: start a new thread using the title format defined below. Include either text or 1-2 pieces of embedded art setting a scene (or both!), and finish with a command (==> does not count as a command for new threads). Then sit back and wait for someone else to contribute!
If you are continuing an adventure: find a thread that does not center around your team's ship. Then comment using the title format defined below. Include either text or 1-2 pieces of embedded art continuing the scene (or both!), and finish with a command (this can include ==>, though generally we would prefer otherwise). Then sit back and wait for someone else to contribute!
For ease of reading, we suggest using standardized image sizes. 600x400 landscape is a pretty good size! But as long as it's the same as the other images in the thread, people will have an easier time following along. The HTML for inserting images is <img src="http://yourimageurlhere.com">
For this challenge, there is no minimum wordcount. We are trusting you not to abuse that fact!
You may not comment twice in a row in one adventure. The point is to hand off the scene like a hot potato.
You may not introduce or create for your team's ship into a fanadventure. If someone else introduces your team's ship to a thread, you can still contribute to that thread so long as your contributions do not involve your ship.
This challenge will run until 11:59PM EDT July 7. After that time, even if it's just by a minute according to the LJ timestamp, no submissions will be accepted for points.

NOTES:

Audio posts are fine, so long as you include a transcript.
Please make sure to check that your titles are correct!
You may answer commands that have already been answered. Think of it like a 'choose your own adventure' game!

Title Format
If you are starting a new thread, use this format in your title.

Replace [THEIR SHIP] with the ship you want this particular fanadventure thread to be. Remember that you cannot create a fanadventure based on your own ship. Whatever ship you choose must be represented by a HSO team not your own. The only exception is gen adventures, which are permitted.
Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with. If your team name is not in this format and in the title it may not be counted.

If you are continuing a thread, use this format in your title.

Replace [COMMAND] with whatever command the previous fill has specified.
Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with.
If your title is not in this format it may not be counted.

Posts not using this format in the title will be understood to be unofficial discussion posts, no matter what they contain. They, like all comments on the comm, are subject to the Wank Policy.

Scoring
(as stated here)
First 5 entries per team: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10: 20 (per entry)
Entries 11-15: 10 (per entry)
Entries 16+: 5 (per entry)

All fanadventure content must be created new for this round.

We would prefer that any questions about this challenge or anything else in the HSO be emailed to us at homestuck.shipping AT gmail!

Your name is BROBOT.

You were recently rebuilt by someone because they had the technology.
Actually, it was more-or-less just a new URANIUM ENERGY SOURCE and a patch job by a trans-universal space-witch-dog who came from space on a golden battleship with friends and several small planets!

This isn't particularly exciting to you, however, because you are a ROBOT.

As a robot, you have a variety of mundane INTERESTS that pertain to everything you were BUILT and PROGRAMMED for. Seeing as the human, JAKE, for whom you were built to WRESTLE and do FISTICUFFS with is no longer on this planet, you determine that there should be SOMETHING ELSE for you to do SOMEWHERE.

What will you do?

==> Brobot: Realize you are without pants.

Well, that’s not the most embarrassing thing, seeing as you are a miracle of technology and not a silly flesh puppet predisposed to fits of modesty and dreams of acute embarrassment and nakedness, for you, means circuits showing.

Now, if you were without PARTS instead of PANTS, that would be embarrassing indeed. Especially for such a tiny typo.

You tried explaining it to AR once, but he snickered in a way that he would decidedly pretend had never happened if a human were to question him on it, as though you’d said something illogical, absurd, or otherwise full of the double-entendres that your common creator is a master at.

Still, Jake insisted on making you wear pants, for his own peace of mind if nothing else. Should you come across another human, it might be more convenient to be wearing clothes.

>Brobot: look for your pants

Judging by the seasons, climate and how long you have been without power, your cotton pants were probably starting to rot... that is if they weren't already re-purposed into young musclebeast gloves along with your other pants you were forced to part with because of the damp, moldy smell. However, your polyester underwear should be intact, and likely nearby.

You do not know how they ceased to be where they were left. You search your hard drive for similar situations, but all you could pull up was some things about Charlie Brown. You do not know why these files are here; then again, there are a lot of mysterious things about your creator, even to high-powered futuristic processing units. Somehow you feel a compelling connection to this orange-shirted child with an oddly circular head. The irrelevance of all of this leads you to drop this track and continue. You whirrrrl your head around to view the space-witch-bitch.

She is, conveniently, currently inspecting your underwear in a canine manner. You decide you should retrieve them before she does something more distinctly canine, such as bury them, chew them to pieces, or demand to play tug-of-war with them.

Fortunately, your UNDERWARE files are also intact. These files were programmed into you for the unlikely instance when you meet a different human and need the bare basics of human etiquette, for example, not tearing said new human limb-from-tender-bloody-meaty-limb.

==>Brobot: Stare creepily at the Space B/Witch until she gives you the underpants
