History WMG / RobotUnicornAttack

There's no evidence to suggest otherwise, and the [[TastesLikeDiabetes Rainbow Unicorn]] is implied to be [[CampGay male]].

[[WMG: It's a metaphor about growing up.]]
You see, the entire world of this game is fantastic. Unicorns, super-advanced robotics, fairies, dolphins out of water keeping you company, rainbows and happiness. This is the idealistic mind of a child, where the world is an amazing place with everything you could want. The game encourages you to achieve your dreams, and when we were young we had huge, fantastic dreams like becoming a superhero. ''This is impossible'' in the real world. So as we transverse this beautiful, idyllic world, we think of our old kiddy dreams until we inevitably fail. This makes us sad, like when we realised we could never achieve what we want to when we were young. So our dreams become smaller and more reasonable, and though we may never win the game due to it representing our childhood, we can and will reach our more realistic goals.

The fairy denizens of the SugarBowl world live in relative peace, but among them are cultists of a [[CthulhuMythos Cthulhu-like]] EldritchAbomination that exists in a nightmarish [[PocketDimension parasite dimension]] which occupies the same physical space as their homeworld. These cultists have begun a dark ritual to [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt unleash their master upon the universe.]] Desperate to prevent the creature from escaping, the fairies built two {{cyborg}} protectors: the Robot Unicorn (Ru) and the Heavy Metal Unicorn (Hem). Ru remained on the homeworld, while Hem was transported to the other dimension [[ClothingDamage (burning off his immaculate veneer]] and [[GameFace revealing his metal workings).]] The two have since gone about destroying the stars (dimensional anchors tethering the parasite universe to their own) from both sides of the portal, weakening the Abomination's tenuous grasp on the homeworld. Ru plays hopeful music to inspire the populace as she gathers fairy refugees, while Hem plays heavy metal to pump himself up and strike fear into the hearts of his tiny, fluttering opponents. Dolphins squeal to encourage Ru as she retakes the homeworld. Skeletal denizens of the parasite dimension scream in terror as they flee Hem's wrath.

[[WMG: This game is {{Eversion}} X-9.]]

After descending into Lovecraftian nightmarishness, the eversion process loops around to a [[SugarBowl beautiful utopian world]]. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, [[CrapsaccharineWorld this is only an illusion of happiness]]; in this world, the gems are LostForever, Zee Tee [[BodyHorror mutates into a unicorn]], and [[AndIMustScream is trapped eternally, doomed to spend the rest of his days running progressively faster and faster until he runs into walls and dies]]. A FIERY DEATH [[RougeAnglesOfSatin AWATES]] YOU!!]]

[[WMG: The Robot Unicorn from the standard game and the one from the new Music/HeavyMetal Edition are lovers.]]

The robot unicorn is a bizarre mix of masculine (mechanical, super-athletic) and feminine (magical, sparkly) traits. Perhaps it is all [[EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory a metaphor]] for a teenage boy who believes he was born in the wrong gender. All day, every day, he runs from persecution and death, wishing with all his might to become the woman he always dreamed of. He no longer wants to wear a disguise, and he refuses to feel shame. He will jump head-on into the ocean, taking all the help he can get and smashing all the obstacles in his way. Sadly, though, he will never biologically be a woman- '''he will fail.'''

[[WMG: The robot unicorn is an [[Film/{{Avatar}} avatar]]

[[WMG: The title is literal; we're seeing the attack of a robot unicorn.]]
The robot unicorn is, despite surface appearances, completely out of place in the fantastical world she-or-he has found him-or-herself in, a mechanical being in a world of pure fantasy. That is because the unicorn is actually an [[Film/{{Avatar}} avatar]] of a technological / science-based civilization that has encountered a world / universe that operates according to magical, fantasy-based rules and is trying to invade / exploit it. The unicorn is a robot probe disguised to blend in with its surroundings that has been sent there to harvest the fairies (and the valuable magical energy they generate) and destroy the stars that create the forcefield that prevents the invaders from landing ''en mass''.

[[WMG: The Robot Unicorn is [[FinalFantasyXIII Odin]].]]
