Bopsteady

Bopsteady is the slash ship between Bebop and Rocksteady from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom.

Season 5
WANTED: BEBOP AND ROCKSTEADY

Bebop is cleaning up the warehouse he and Rocksteady are in, complaining about how Rocksteady keeps the place. Rocksteady says that it's not his fault Bebop is picky with apartments, and Bebop points out that no one wants to rent to mutants. Also they're broke and in need of jobs. Rocksteady tells him to chill since he's got it covered. He reads out loud the wanted ad's, and Bebop tells him to go back when there's one for a mutant warthog and rhino. Bebop let's out a "hee hee" which Rocksteady copies, and says that the job is literally made for them.

They head to the diner where the help wanted ad told them to meet, only to be shocked to see Shredder and a Kraang there. They're invited to sit and Rocksteady asks Bebop why they look like Shredder and a Kraang. Shredder says they can't use them but Krang says that they're perfect. Bebpop says that they're the best of the best and Rocksteady says they'll do whatever job they need.

In order to test them for the job, Shredder wants them to fight him, and has them go to a back alley. Rocksteady suggests Bebop goes first, and Bebop points out that Rocksteady is bigger, so he should go first. Shredder then fights the two of them, and they're able to get the upperhand. Rocksteady asks if they get the job now and Krang says that they will be very helpful in their mission to conquer the world. Bebop playfully hits Rocksteady and says it will be nice to be on the winning side for a change.

They're taken to the Technodrome, both amazed at everything. Bebop says that they've hit the big leauges, when Shredder and Krang drop several bags of money at their feet. They hold hands and marvel at the amount, Bebop saying that they'll do whatever since their Shredder never even paid them. Rocksteady says he mostly just threatened to hurt them, and Shredder decides that they need to wear the same outfits as their 87 counterparts. Bebop says that it's old school, but pretty tight and Rocksteady says it's maybe too tight around the ears. There is then an alert that the 87 turtles teleported into the dimension, and Krang pulls it up onscreen. Bebop says that the turtles look freaky, and Rocksteady questions why they have belt buckle initials. Shredder then orders them to destroy the turtles, and both of them say they will.

They easily find the turtles and beat them. Bebop says that it's nice to be on the winning side of a beatdown, and Rocksteady says that they can now finish the job. He pull out his gun, ready to fire, but Raphael says that they can't kill them since it's a kids show. Bebop asks what he's talking about, but Rocksteady thinks that he's right. Killing them when they're so weak and pathetic feels wrong. Bebop gives in and decides that they'll just take them back to Shredder and Krang, since they'll know what to do with them.

THE FOOT WALKS AGAIN!

They take them back, but the 2012 Turtles attempt to rescue them, only to be captured. Bebop says that they need to finish the Turtles off fast before they escape and Rocksteady agrees. They both fire up their weapons, but are knocked to the side by Shredder and Krang who prefer to gloat. Bebop tells Rocksteady that Shredder and Krang are dumber than them, and Rocksteady says that's saying something. Bebop fires at the turtles, only for Donnie to figure out a way to get them out. Rocksteady and Bebop then pull out their weapons and Bebop says it's time to take them out. They release their 87 counterparts, and escape with a smoke bomb. Bebop says that it annoys me when they do that, since it gets all up in his nose, and Rocksteady says he hates the tricks as well. Shredder insults them again, which causes Bebop and Rocksteady to snap and tell them to stop with the insults.

Krang goes over the technology that they need to power up the technodrome and tells Bebop and Rocksteady where to get it. Shredder says that they're very likely to mess it up, which makes the two very angry. But Krang tells them they'll be leading an army of footbots, which the two are very impressed by.

As they lead the Footbots to the EPF, Bebop comments that it's nice how they feel needed for once. Rocksteady agrees, as actually leading the mission makes them not feel like lackey's. Bebop says he digs the new Shredder, and Rocksteady agrees, except for the insults. They're pretty mean. They easily break in and get onto the elevator downstairs. Bebop tells Rocksteady not to wander, so they can get in and out fast, when the alarm goes off. The EPF surround them, but the two take them out. They get to the level they need, and Rocksteady starts to walk forward before Bebop stops him. He points out that there could be traps and they send several of the footbots forward to set them off. A lazer grid then forms behind them and they run forward till they reach the vault door. Bebop has trouble getting it open, but eventually does and Rocksteady pulls him inside. Rocksteady was a piece of cake, and they search the vault for the chip. They find it and start celebrating.
