Swetzer sniffs around, listening intently. She's been told to train Skarvs to guard the Clothian cubit shard. "Why Jeanne... why..." Swetzer mumbles under his breath, having been put up to this task to their chagrin. There is but an awkward silence.
"So this thing creates Mixels right?," Skarvs asks curiously, intently staring at it. Swetzer's head whips around in a 180 degree fashion, "Yeah. Us Clo-o-othians make Clothing and use our magic with thie shard to bring it to-o-o life." Skarvs looks at it in awe, continuing to ask questions.
"Alright MIXBOTZZZZZ!!!," Rayzo says, "Toolz-E, our leader, has sent a distress zzzzignal!!!" Lankzo merely lets out a boop, having been hungry for awhile. Ph0ne rolls her digitally interfaced eye as she feeds it some batteries. "WE MUZZZT ACT FAST! Therefore, I command uzz to steal the Clothian cubit shard!!" Ph0ne does a quick Moogle search, "Yeah but that's important to their culture..."
Rayzo slits his eyes even further, ceasing Ph0ne's questions, much to her annoyance. Meanwhile, Swetzer continually gets annoyed at how Skarvs keeps almost accidentally destroying the cubit shard. "O-o-oh. My. MAXIMUM MIXEL, COME ON," they shout, hissing, "I can do-o-o this job with NO-O-O EYES! And yet you can barely hold this shard!?"
Skarvs shrugs shyly, Swetzer annoyed at his accident-prone antics. Swetzer proceeds to say something, but gets interrupted by a laser blast she dodges, "WHAT THE MUCK!?" Rayzo cackles robotically, the other MixBots looking just as annoyed, "We MixBots have COME FORTH to obtain the cubit shard! Zzzzzt!!" Swetzer doesn't have eyes, and yet his hypothetical gaze pierces through the MixBots, striking fear into them. Rayzo pushes past, knowing it has the range advantage. He goes crazy, blasting all around at random.
Swetzer loses their balance, Skarvs catching him. This would usually be a funny gaze moment, but Swetzer is blind as a Glowkie bat. Nonetheless, the smell of mixing essence from the rainbow cubit Skarvs alerts the hollow sweater Mixel. She grabs it, a trash bag scooping them up and being put into a trash compactor. A powerful mix bursts out, spitting out a wet yarn ball. It unleashes a Mixeloptor-esque roar in Swetzer's native tongue. It inhales really hard, the 3 MixBots getting put in their mouth. After a big of finagling, the mix spits them out, a knitted... fully working rocket attached? Indeed, it blasts off sending them back to Planet Mixel.
"WE ARE BLAZZZTING OFF AGAAAIIIN!!!," Rayzo shouts. Ph0ne rolls her eye, "This is literally the first time." The mix splits, "Well Skarvs, yo-o-ou did great! Just... don't get yourself killed hehe." Skarvs laughs, getting noogied by Swetzer
