I just had to draw it! Delilah couldn't get Main Toons off of her until they bonded with their Handlers, and then the Handlers couldn't get the Toons off of them neither but it's their job to be around them, so...

YES!!!! ABSOLUTELY!! I imagine each Main would have a different pattern how they announce their presence to enter Delilah's room. Vee would just walk in without invitation if the door is unlocked; Astro shuffles his feet against the carpet; Sprout, Shelly and Pebble claw at the door; Bassie drums her fingers against the wood; Gourdy reaches his paws under the door like a kitten; Dandy and Bobette are the most normal ones out of bunch, they both knock but the first uses his fist and the latter uses the back of her foot.

There was an official storyboard that portrayed the first time they met buuut... I don't consider them canon! It's a storyboard for a cartoon after all, it could've been entirely different in real life

I wanted to show here just how differently the founders treat the Toons. Arthur uses a more friendly approach, and Delilah tries to keep everything professional and sterile. The only reason Delilah carried Cosmo is because it was a faster way to get from her office to the lobby, than letting him follow her with his tiny steps. She wouldn't do it normally. It was only for efficiency.

They were both shy at first but I feel like if Delilah was able to create the Toons with their exact personalities as Arthur described them, then I feel like there could be some memories of a potential friend Sprout should've had. And when he finally met him, they clicked like two puzzle pieces.

Bonus:

I've drawn Rodger before during Halloween along with Eclipse and him sitting in an Ichor puddle, you can check it out too! As for my thoughts and headcanons! I think he would have a sharp eyesight, because he's a magnifying glass which literally makes you see better when you use it. Why does he use another magnifying glass when he investigates? Well, he is a detective after all! I think it's pretty much tied to his entire character. His handwriting isn't great and sometimes he can't make out what he wrote. He sacrifices pretty looks for speed and efficiency! He has so many thoughts and clues to write down so there's absolutely no time to write it neatly! And making sense out of these scribbles is a Future Rodger problem anyway. Rodger doesn't have a mouth nor a nose so it's safe to assume it's hard for him to breathe, it's similar to asthma. I actually think a lot of Toons had problems with breathing, just like Dandy did in official tape recording. But with Rodger Delilah couldn't really do much, it was pretty much a design flaw. That's why Rodger is slow, he just can't move faster without harming himself. You'd expect someone as Rodger - a dedicated detective who will do anything for the research - to spend nights without sleep and to drink a lot of coffee. But surprisingly, he doesn't! His sleeping is healthy, he doesn't have nightmares and he wakes up feeling refreshed after each night!

I also got another ask about Rodger so it goes here too! I think Delilah noticed his weird blinking/winking so she thought his eye was sore or there was something wrong but... He just does that. It's like he forgets how to blink at all when he tried to wink at someone.
