This chapter was just painful! Like a bolt of lightning through the heart! XD

Honestly though I teared up twice: first at Oscar's breakdown in the trunk, since he loves Wayne so much and just wants to be a good brother to him! Poor poor thing. When he started crying I did too. Second when Block started terrorizing Wayne about Oscar dying. Damn was she cold-hearted! But smart, since pulling out those polycarbonate guns and working to change his anger back int fear, was a real brilliant strategy. Despite hating those two, I still admire their resilience, and can't help but laugh at Tease's lines. The ones about 'sexy science' and her excitement about the car fortress and Neutro still made me smile.

Also wow, I hadn't even realized the robot was Neutro until right before you named him in the story, lol. That was a great idea to add him into the universe, though I will be sad when this world's Linkara steals him.

Haha, just what we were going for! XDD

I’m happy you felt so much during Oscar’s breakdown. Wayne gets a few moments where he breaks down over the course of this fic, and we wanted to give Oscar his own moment to let out all his frustrations and sorrows because by then, he’s gone through so much and doesn’t know what to do at all. Poor thing. And poor Wayne too because yeah, Block and Tease really laid it on thick. But for once, their dramatics served in their favor and acted as a pretty effective strategy to break Wayne’s control. And yes, you just can’t help but laugh at Tease’s antics even when she’s being completely nuts and trying to do horrible things. I loved her being a giddy little kid at seeing Neutro too. XD

And yep, that’s Neutro. But Linkara’s not gonna get his hands on Neutro in this AU. For a couple of reasons which will be explained later.
