“Hellooooo my loyal eggheads, today I have a very special stream planned.” Robotnik smiled in anticipation but before he could answer he was bombarded by assumptions in the chat.
the_magiccrack: Omg Halloween stream?!
scarlatte14: Is it a spooky stream ????
no1eggfan: I want you
kykachu8: Egg+Rock couples costume?
The chat was filled with various pumpkin icons and other asks about Halloween.
“What- Halloween no what would make you think that?!” Robotnik was about to scold his loyal fans when a thought occurred to him. Is that today?
Robotnik quickly pulled up a calendar off screen. October 31st, 10:32 am. Huh. The Doctor thought for a minute. While he had originally planned to do a 24hr stream, binging shows the Eggheads had suggested, maybe a “Spooky Stream” wouldn’t be so bad. Surely there was a way he could monetize this….
“Alright listen up Eggheads, if we can get enough subs and donations within the next 6hrs I will have a special Halloween Stream, uh, featuring Agent Stone, of course." He finished his sentence by putting the subs and donation counter.

“Stone?”
“Yes, Doctor?” Stone peered over from where he was watching the stream in their shared kitchenette area.
“I need you to go to the store,” Robotnik had already started typing in the air with one of his control gloves, “I’ll send the list to your watch. Now go, hurry up!”
“Oh, of course, Sir.” With that Stone went to put on his riding gear.

The Eggheads had pulled through; of course they had. The only problem was now Stone had to.
Once Stone had returned from his outing Robotnik had explained to him the plan for the special Halloween stream (off camera of course, to keep it a surprise from the Eggheads): they would get dressed up in matching costumes and binge horror movies the chat had suggested. To Stone it almost sounded like a date and he was practically ecstatic to participate in! However, he had not considered the costume.
Robotnik had picked out their costumes and had told Stone that “he’d figure it out.” And he did! An egg costume for Robotnik and a devil costume for Stone, together they made Deviled Eggs! The Doctor was so clever ... .But considering Stone went to the store the day of halloween they were rather limited, in their costume selections.
The Doctor had already changed into his costume (“changed” may be too generous, considering he just pulled the egg piece over his sweatpants) and had demanded Stone also get changed as quickly as possible. Now Stone stood in the small bathroom unsure of his appearance. The only things he wore were a red bunny suit with a phony pointed tail attachment, red fishnet stockings, and a headband with little red horns. It was the only thing in his size.
It isn’t really that bad, he thought to himself, if it were just the Doctor. Sure, Robotnik would probably belittle him for dressing so demeaning and Stone had no problem with that! The problem lay within the fans eagerly awaiting Huevo Diablo’s Halloween special.
“Stone! What’s taking you so long? The Eggheads are waiting,” Robotnik called from the other side of the door.
He sighed. Might as well get this over with.
Stone opened the door, stepping out shyly. He watched as Robotnik’s eyes widened and mouth dropped slightly.
“Why in God’s name did you purchase that one?!” Robotnik looked Stone up and down repeatedly. He felt hot all over.
“I’m sorry Sir it was the only one available-”
“Whatever! We don’t have time for this,” Robotnik then grabbed Stone’s arm and dragged him to the main living area.
“Pardon my henchmen’s tardiness and…lack of fabric,” Stone felt his whole face heat up, “but we are ready to begin the Halloween Special! Now, Stone and I are wearing matching outfits and I’m sure some of you have already caught onto the theme here but I’ll explain for those intellectually challenged in the chat. I am an Egg and he is a Devil and together that makes us-”
“Deviled eggs!”
“Huevo Diablo!”
They had both shouted their answers at the same time. Robotnik gawked at Stone for the second time that night.
“Now, I know the answer to this so don’t speak but, are you an idiot?!”
“I-“
Robotnik groaned loudly, pinching the bridge of his nose.
“Whatever, let's just start.”
Once they had settled down and had begun watching the films (that Ivo talked over most of the time) it wasn’t really that bad. Stone would occasionally forget he was wearing the costume (until he moved and the latex squeaked or pinched him) or that the Doctor was streaming at all. The only downside was Robotnik seemed to be keeping his distance, as he leaned the opposite way of Stone on the couch and kept avoiding eye contact.
Once the Doctor had ended the stream he muttered something about beauty sleep and made his way to the bedroom and Stone got to work cleaning up. Before he entered the doorway though he paused, glancing back at his Agent.
“Stone don’t…return that costume.”
Had the Doctor just indirectly told him to keep a piece of lingerie??
