Before reading this, I just want to clarify that this is not a shipfic. :>

This takes place before [Spoiler Alert] Iskall redesigned Grumbot a bit during his recent episode.

________________________________

Two men stood on each other's pole, trying to balance their feet but kept on stumbling around till they've finally balanced. They both laughed at their child-like actions. "Ready Mumbo?" The blonde asked.

The mustached hermit then took out a shiny blue rock, and pointed it in front of his manager. "Ready," he said.

Both Grian and Mumbo did their part. One made a film studio, the other built the cutest little shop, Jrumbot. And together stocked it with their allowance and mustache support. Now they're here to ask for Grumbot's next order.

"What should we do now?" Grian typed on the diamond, then placed it inside the dispenser.

After pressing all the buttons and flooding all mayoral reservoirs, the beeping noises played, and the mustache did a little jiggle. Then a piece of paper flew out from the other dispenser.

Mumbo read whatever it said on the paper, and let out a quiet hum, "Grumbot said to do nothing."

"Nothing?!" Grian yelped.

"Seems that way," Mumbo replied, shoving the piece of paper into his pocket, then picked up another a diamond and renamed the question. "What do you mean nothing?" He asked. Then placed it back inside the dispenser and waited for it's answer.

20 seconds later two red flowers, or poppies, popped out from the dispenser. The two both picked up one flower each, unsure about the purpose of these flowers. "Flowers? What does 'doing nothing' have to do with flowers?" Mumbo asked.

Grian shrugged, "No clue."

Just then another item dispensed from the dispenser, another piece of paper. They both read the paper at the same time, and felt their cheeks warm and slightly flush from what they read.

'Happy Father's Day, Dads!'

Mumbo and Grian shared a baffled expression and confuse glances. But nonetheless they were amuse, smiling even. They both glanced at the robo AI and started chuckling. "I have to say, I'm chuffed to bits," Mumbo hummed.

"Who needs to be mayor if you can have a child heh?" Grian chuckled at his joke.

"But no offense Grian, I'm already taken."

"You think I don't know that?" He punched Mumbo's shoulder lightly.

After the laughters subsided, they both stared at Grumbot for a while, holding the flowers the AI gave them. They followed Grumbot's orders and just did nothing but company the AI, either talking about plans for the mayoral race or just ask Grumbot random questions. Only to end up with the same answers 'Mumbo for Mayor'

The silence was finally disturbed. "Do you know what's interesting? The fact that Grumbot sees us as it's dads," Mumbo explained. "And I do not have the knowledge to create that complicated of a robot. So it's nice that he has feelings, for a robot that is."

Grian hummed. But seemed to be more focus on waiting for the sun to set. Then beeping noises started to play from the robot. And oh boi Grumbot does not look happy, he looked rather pissed.

Once again, another pieced of paper fell on the concrete floor. Mumbo swooped in, picked up the paper, and read whatever was written. He looked baffled, reading the paper over and over again till he finally was confusion.

He awkwardly handed out the piece of paper to the blonde, and just sat there in his own thoughts, still confused.

'That's Robophobic!'
