Character Biases and Introduction:

• Mackenzie Bardot (Macaroni): The sour, ill willed rabbit who’s also sweet inside of herself. Her ill will behavior is weirdly bad, she’s also a nice person deep down and will do anything to help, unfortunately it confuses and annoys some people. And sometimes feels like her friend sometimes takes her side in some situations. But Alie knows that she still loves Macaroni. She is usually accompanied by Alie, and her weaknesses are that: she is quick to believe in the words of others. She is credulous, and (aggressive) on the outside, and doesn’t trust some other people which makes her aggressive, other than the people she trusts.

Macaroni was formerly a human known as Mackenzie who was going to meet her boyfriend. She was the first to know about this boyfriend, and was gullible enough to think Aislinn had another boyfriend, because she never told Mackenzie his name. And the moment they were near the beach in the bus, Mackenize told Aislinn the name of the boyfriend, and then Ailsinn ended up annoyed and upset, and before she could respond any further, she and Aislinn ended up almost on the verge of a death in a bus rockslide crash. When she was a person she enjoyed writing stories and making up stuff with Aislinn, she was also hinted to be a tsundere.

• Aislinn Fox (Allie) : The young girl cockroach who has a sweet, bubbly, happy, and admiring personality. She now works at a dagashi sweet candy store with Mac, with many good sweets, milkshakes, smoothies, and snacks in one and has a sweet tooth for certain types of candy and sweet stuff. Despite not many people getting to know her, she is actually a workaholic and keeps herself and the candy store super clean. She usually is accompanied with Macaroni. But don’t fool her for her sweetness, especially since she has certain problems. She once had 5 cavities in one dentist trip, and she’s scared of novocaine and euthasia shots and breathing masks, and anything that will make her tired and increase her chances of nightmares. She has lots of cute visions and dreams, and even her nightmares are weird but sweet. Her other weaknesses are that: she doesn’t speak up in important situations (passive), doesn’t always like trying new things until she experiences it and grows it into a habit, and falls for ripoff traps and booby prizes.

Allie is formerly a human who was going to meet her boyfriend (and didn't know about who he was and that he liked her friend) to the beach, and ended up almost on the verge of a death in a bus rockslide crash. When she was a person she enjoyed writing stories and making up stuff with Mackenzie.

• Orion Smart: The boyfriend of the story. He didn't meet Mackenzie and Aislinn at the beach, because of the bus crash, and he didn't know they were there. Until he saw the news report of the possible rockslide crash, and when he found a girl who looked like Mackenzie, he got shocked and scared. But he also set off on his journey to find his girlfriend and see if they are both ok.

• Carlin (KaruXX) : The kind boy prince robot android that speaks perfect English in this world, especially his own robot species, but he crashed and got malfunctioned, suffering amnesia. (a serious and risky kinda scrambled amnesia)

Like a meteor ending up as a crashed meteorite after an accident involving a bully,who accuses him for something he did when he was little because the bully’s father was a shopkeeper. He was the one who hit him so hard that he flew off to their world. He crashed to the closest hill at a park near the candy store. He is an assertive person, and ends up being a nice person to almost everyone, except bullies and strangers that bully him. As a poor person in the rank at school and his “goody two shoes” personality, until he goes to his high school. His parents, king and queen of robot royalty are not strict, but when Carlin was younger, they were very strict. With the help from Allie and Macaroni, they helped him practice and fix his speech, since during the landing, it got a bit wet near the lake where he crashed. Carlin's sometimes bad at proving things, and has a temper that doesn’t last long. His weaknesses are that: he can also remember things, but when he needs an upgrade and reboot, he forgets several things easily. Deep down he’s homosexual (because he’s gay, loves other men and kisses men), but on the other hand in the same level he likes and is best friends with Allie and Macaroni.

The whole one-shot plot (Note that the whole comic has to be around 32-40 Pages)

But also note if i wanted it to be a series, make it 32 pages (1 page cover + 31 story pages):

Note that this happened one year after the bus rockslide crash, and two days after the grand opening of the candy store (that looks like a Japanese but party western version of a dagashiya) shop, and only few customers go to that shop. Despite being concerned about this, they persevere and still keep the shop open.

• Beginning:

• Conflict and exposition: In their isekai world, the candy and snack dagashiya store they work in doesn’t have many customers because they assume that they think their customers think that the store isn't clean. But the pest and rabbit keep their shop clean. Even if they write a sign relating to this, they still won’t understand. So the shop is misunderstood and new.
• They want new friends, but they have different situations (foil situation -> sweet and sour/kind and in a temper). They talk about the situation in the store and want something new and need change. Suddenly they hear a loud crash sound, that sounded like a crater thud and a strong whoosh of air and some dust. The two head to the park because that’s where they noticed the crash took place.
• Middle:
• Build up: They come to the park to the hill nearest to the candy store. They find a burnt robot that created the “crater”. They help the robot up, and when they help clean the robot up, and pick up his belongings, they learn that he’s the prince of robot royalty. They looked at the robot, and they both fell in love. They ask the robot what they can do to help. And he replies I don't know, because he doesn’t seem to remember his crash, until he sees the papers they picked up and sees that he remembers something now… He has to practice on a speech within three Earth months, because of the king and queen's royalty. All the three know the address, and the lines to the speech, but they were wet with water and ink. But together, the three helped with rewriting and reprinting their story. Even if it took some of their shop’s allowance to make 3 copies of the same speech in case he was hurt all over again and one of them can be the understudy and help him. No matter what it took, they helped the prince boy, and Allie and Mac fought each other for the prince's love. And within a month or two, when he finally remembers the lines by heart, the robot finally begins to gradually remember that he needs to find a way back home. But he doesn’t know how, and he also asks them if they can come along just in case. They get excited and say yes.

Eventually, The two manage to also polish and fix their two-way capsule ride to the address to the robot prince’s kingdom and the two learned that the reason why the robot prince crashed was because of a “big meanie” who punched him so hard several times, that he flew off away from the robot kingdom and crashed to their world in the park. When they finally fixed the place they headed to the robot’s kingdom. Which is actually not too far away by country, but it's as far as an airplane ride. They headed to the place called RoboMetXXP.

Then, when they were almost at their location, they met the bully, who bothered them long time ago, and it was revealed that back then the bully actually accused KaruXX for stealing/shoplifting stuff in stores when he was in 6th grade. (he’s a kleptomaniac and before he was a regular prince, despite living a strict life, he actually steals and when he tell the truth to his parents, they get angry and punish him). So he keeps his kleptomania a secret.

The robot prince and the girl’s got surprised, and got worried and sorry about him, and had no proof how they could solve this. The bully slashes a knife and shoots fireballs from his shooting hands at the target. They get scared and get lost and when they get to the corner of an alleyway, they fear for the worst. But then, the boy’s parents and his robot human friends come to save him. They attack the bully, and the two call the Robot Police and arrest the bully. Even better, the two manage to meet the robot friends, and help them get to the prince’s castle. The robot then tells Allie and Macaroni that he can’t believe he forgot about the tracker that was implanted in his chest and that it got fixed from Allie and Mac earlier in the story, when they helped fixed KaruXX.

• Climax: They reached the castle, and Karu introduced them to his parents, the King and Queen of the kingdom. Then when he sees the whole crowd Karu gets scared and worries that he can’t survive the speech with this whole crowd in the way, but the two tell them to focus on their very best and stick to the speech and finish it, even if it’s hard. Then Karu gave the speech. Every bit of it. Karu was scared of the crowd in some areas of the speech, but Allie and Mac helped them in his speech. And together, they helped with the speech. The speech was actually about the important help needed to revive the kingdom and he was going to marry someone and live happily ever after in the kingdom.
• The two were shocked and happy and all the female robots and Allie and Macaroni asked the prince if they could get married. Before the Prince could respond, he seemingly ran towards them, but he actually ran toward a male robot who’s also mainly a lover of the prince. The male said do you wanna marry and the prince who is revealed to be gay, said "yes I do!" And together they kissed each other. All the ladies (except Allie and Mac) got shocked, and got upset and ran toward the prince saying that was a waste.
• and cried 'Nooo we want to be with the prince and marry me' but didn’t criticize or pout about the situation. Allie and Mac are worried that the prince will forget about them.
• Falling action: But then the prince said that he has two other people he wants to show them and dedicate them to helping him with his speech. He smiled and they smiled at him, happy that they at least did something, despite their foiling and contradictory personalities.

The king and queen also told them that they forgot to replace the robot voltage batteries of KaruXX after his landing accident from the bully, and that they didn’t need to help him too much. They were shocked and a little annoyed telling them why Prince Karu didn't think about that earlier and that he forgot this because of his short term amnesia problem, but they at least understand, as androids have special rechargeable voltage battery lives that they can easily be bought at a store nearby any place in their world.

The prince said they can visit them anytime. The two were so happy about this, and then went back to their two-way capsule ship, going back home. They crashed, but not in the same spot or at the park but at a far away safe landing spot.

• The ending:

• Conclusion: About two weeks later, they were back to where they started, still with few customers like usual, and missing the prince, and despite not getting married or getting what they wanted they finished something and made some friends. Suddenly they hear another customer opening the door, and then they saw the Prince (KaruXX), they were shocked and happy, and asked how did they know they were here, and the prince told them he likes them so much, he tracked his friends there and asks if he wants to be friends with them, despite his homosexual marriage. And maybe do some occasional volunteering for the candy dagashi store if it’s okay with them. They were so happy, they said yes. And he also told them that he has a lot of robot friends who want to buy candy and snacks from their dagashi candy store, and the two were so happy and at the same time they gave the robots what they wanted. They got their work done and with Karu’s help, the three managed to afford a catchy LED cute neon sign for the dagashi business, and a commercial. The last thing KaruXX did before they closed up the shop for the day, is that they suggested he can take whatever 3 candies and snacks he wanted and that as long as he asks the shop owners, and not behave like a kleptomaniac the whole time in the shop. And he took a milkshake, the cola, and caramel soft candy packs for free. And in exchange he gave them something from his world, a pink teddy bear plush toy for the two to share. He says thank you and sees you tomorrow, smiles and gives them a big hug, and leaves.

And that is how the three got to the candy shop business and not just with the candy dagashi store, but with customers and plenty more adventures to come.

Themes: action-adventure, fantasy based, reincarnation, teenagers and girl target, shoujo - BL based twist? (i had a feeling that the robot love part was based on a research on homosexual relationship definition and meaning).

Quote of the story’s catalyst: “ Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. ” - Izaak Walton , an English writer.

Why did I write this story? Because I want to have fun with my imagination and enjoy myself as I’m completely a unique writer, I might not be like anyone else, but I do things my own way and that’s important to find people with common interests, but also enjoy different walks of life.
