Ideas for my "Dueling Walkies" fic

Postby dannavy85 » 17 years ago

Currently I'm writing a story where Astro coaxes his alter nemesis Atlas Boy from his hiding hole for a weekend walk-a-bout hoping to teach Atlas a few things about humans. Any ideas?

I have two questions: Is Skunk gonna be in it, and if so, how much of him is gonna be in it.

:lol:

Seriously, it sounds neat.

How about Astroboy and him going to a children's hospital where Atlas decides he would love to do research in his spare time to help those children, thanks.

I could drop skunk in, perhaps trying to finese Atlas back to his fold in some crafty way. The hospital idea would be a nice side-touch.

Ah, excellent. I've always enjoyed your writing.

Toni's idea is neat. It would be cool to see that side of Atlas.

Thanks, does Atlas have a computer - like mind that could handle research on the microscopic level that would be needed to do research on diseases? Wonder if Osamu Tezuka thought back in 1951 that Astroboy would be part of something like the internet? Astroboy should be able to bring back interest in science and fields especially like i hope "beneficial robotics", especially for boys. I remember reading a post by someone at another site that Astroboy inspire him into science, i hope Astroboy will be able to do it now for the girls and boys. Thanks, praying all of you the best, your friend, Toni

Well they're both simillar in design and I write em as total polar opposites, a sort of plastic "Goofus and Gallant". Astro has good patience while Atlas starts to complain and fidget if things don't go quickly the way he likes. Astro understands human quirks while Atlas is annoyed and frustrated by them.

Then Astroboy is also probably more intelligent then, thanks

well he's just more exposed to humans and how they act. Atlas is coming from an abusive life where all he knew of humans was how Skunk treated him so he ended up basing all humans as untrustworthy evil wretches deserving a robot boot up the butt and 24 hour babysitting.

Hi- I would had thought Atlas would know that Skunk is not the best human to judge other humans by. Thanks
