After two games and a spinoff starring our very own Miss Tron, there's still so much information we don't know about the Bonne family. Like whether their father is alive or dead, the circumstances under which their mother died and if that influenced their swing towards piracy, whether Bon Bonne is human or not, and when, how and why the servbots were originally created.
Even though their role in Legends 2 was downplayed somewhat in favor of supporting the quest for the Mother Lode, they're due for a front-line comeback in Legends 3...with the reactivation of the Elder System, they've got to find some way to use it to further complicate Mega Man's life.
They could always reform from altogether, too :15:...but hey, where's the fun in that?

I always imagined that at first they stayed with the Casketts, but as time got on and things got worse, they split to fend for themselves, with maybe a tiny bit of backstory if we're lucky. :28: It would also be funny if at some point in the game we saw them try to reestablish their business somehow. I could just imagine Teisel as this huge guy behind the counter of a toy store with a big grin on his face. XD

Is it really worth questioning why the Servbots were made? That never even crossed my mind...
And I really, really hope Legends 3 downplays the whole elder System thing. I think that's just something that's been built up in your minds. (at the end of Legends 2, Sera seems almost happy about it, for cryin' out loud!) I'd like the Bonnes back without any connection to the elder System, personally.
I'm expecting the Bonnes to pull something treacherous right from the beginning of the game. Like, as soon as MegaMan & co. are back from outer-space, any truce between the Bonnes and Casketts/Von Bluecher is over! I'd expect nothing less from the Bonnes. And then, ideally it'll be the standard plot: MegaMan goes back to running around in ruins digging up refractors and running into the Bonnes at every turn. It was a good formula; why change it now, eh?

Remember, you'd be seeing Servbot dolls and other Bonne frippery everywhere--the only things you'd be able to buy there!
I myself figured that the Bonnes would stay with the Casketts, at least until they were able to part ways and find other shelter (or just rebuild the Gesselschaft--however they'd get the money).

I'd actually really like to see the Bonnes completely loot the Flutter before taking off, so not only do you start broke without any weapons, your Flutter is also in desperate need of redecorating.
Or maybe they could even steal the Flutter early on. XD

There's an idea that could actually use some consideration. You'd get it back fairly quickly, that said, and perhaps it could be an excuse for us to go back to Kattelox at the same time (or wherever they'd be heading to get away). That would make for a great starter area ideally.

I like Miss Dashe's idea. It's even better than what I was hoping for. That would be so like them. <3 I'd love to have to battle the Bonnes to reclaim the Flutter. (That's more Legends dream fuel right there)

Of course, that gives an excuse to spend some zenny along the journey when we begin to accumulate a lot of it (which would happen if you've checked out the Game Spec. thread about our ideas for dungeons).

I can hear Tron making fun of Roll for the autopilot system now, and reading her diary...oooh, Tron would definitely do that. Or maybe that snoop #40 will beat her to the punch.

Guaranteed to produce laughter x 9000+. It would make for some good fan service, especially considering what Teisel might decide to dow with Barrel's goodies. Tron will obviously be a hoot, while Bon will just trash Volnutt's quarter.

Poor Mr. Cactus never stood a chance against him. :-\

They sure love cacti! Except that they would probably crash the Flutter, the true insult to injury, and get the beating of their lifetime--by you know who.

Or maybe they could even steal the Flutter early on. XD This. Nice. Not only does it cover the excuse for why you don't have your weapons anymore, but it can also lead to some interesting developments, such as Tron using Megaman's own weapons against him in some super-mech she designed or something along those lines. Although I don't see Tron herself even thinking of stealing their ship, since she'd probably be too occupied with how she should react towards Megaman's reappearance or something, but maybe Tiesel and the servbots could hatch up a plan like this. And LOL at Tron reading Roll's diary....just wow. Add more flames to the fiery love-triangle.

Teisel'd naturally be the mastermind behind this one! Mr. "My heart feels as clean as the blue sky on a cloudless day" and then plot to steal the refractor in the Main Gate behind Mega Man's back himself. Stealing the Flutter is a total Teisel move.

Lol, yeah, it does sound like a Tiesel move.
It'd also be Tiesel's idea to have Tron build a robot that uses all of Megaman's weapons against him.
Tiesel- Finally, we'll be able to pay back blue-boy for ALL the trouble he's given us...and what better way to do it than with his own little toyship and his peashooters?! AHAHAHAHA! (Maniacal laughter)
*resets face*
So Tron... *lays a hand on his sister's shoulder*
I'm counting on you, this'll be the best creation yet!
We'll even call it...the Tieselchaft, heheh this will be our finest hour!
Tron: Oh...o-okay.. *Her eyes shift down to the floor as a look of apprehension appears on her face*
