Idk a little skit I thought of outside my comic
Something a little more wholesome (kinda) because I can't stop thinking about angst as of recently.
"I understand you are only doing this because of how you were created, though I'll appreciate the little distraction you gave me away from my troubles."
"I bet you have not a clue how much I envy you.."
I have a little headcanon with Dyle being mechanic, but not entirely. Mostly the exterior of his body is metal, whilst inside there are few organs intertwining with his mechanical systems like a twisted puzzle of flesh and steel. He originally was not meant to have these more organic features and remain machine, but she decided otherwise and wanted to experiment during his creation just for knowledge. He contains only half of the natural digestive track, a form of brain, respiratory system, and a form of cardiovascular system.
He encounters struggles internally with these traits mainly being sores, stings, or pinches in his body. They have also impacted rust reportedly, though that issue cannot entirely be fixed. The rusted parts would simply have to be replaced unless they are fatal pieces to himself upon removal.
Within my AU he has not gotten proper repair in years. His body is at a constant struggle, and the damage he inflicts onto himself definitely worsens it. It's not only cuts he's done.
He in fact has cookies on a plate in his room, sided with a glass of milk. I wonder if those cookies were specifically baked by Cosmo considering he mentioned he prefers Cosmo's baking in his gossip. The more likely answer though is he made the cookies himself considering he only said "prefers", cute to think about though. (I swear I saw them in there, if they aren't there I may be insane.)
