So of course I just had to do my own artistic rendition of it.

Behold: They Are Looking

Plus a cutesier version under the cut

For Robo Roommates

Aw HELL YEAH group dynamics!

I've simplified them into 5 categories that sort of speak for themselves, though I should specify that everyone here gets along great so the 'Friends' category is for close friendships specifically. As for the 'Siblings' category, it's for siblings and 'sibling-like' relationships.

Scratch and Grounder already viewed each other as siblings as we all know, but after some time of D.U.F.U.S. living with them and looking after them in different ways, they started to see him as an older brother figure. Both of them are terrified of thunder and Doof was the first to try to help them with it. He has watched their Edgar Eagle VHS tapes with them countless times and lets them talk about the show at length. The twins look up to him ; and he's grown to care about them like family.

Coconuts was somewhat jealous of this relationship for a time, but when others joined the Sanctuary it greatly eleviated those feelings.

The other family unit is Bocoe, Decoe, and Bokkun. Shocking, I know. Bocoe and Decoe have been a couple for years at this point, long before they were abandonned and kicked out by Eggman. They're deeply affectionate towards each other and are very rarely seen apart ; if ever. They also built Bokkun! Eggman wanted a messenger robot but couldn't be bothered to build one himself (he'd much rather work on his giant fighting mechs), so he drew up some quick plans and handed the task off to his two underlings. Bocoe and Decoe took a few liberties but Bokkun was eventually born and they instantly grew attached to their little boy.

Speaking of their little boy, Bocoe and Decoe are lucky to have quite a few people in the Sanctuary who enjoy looking after him. Scratch and Grounder particularly like the little guy ; and so does Cubot once he joins the group. D.U.F.U.S. occasionally helps with the babysitting as well.

Finally, the friendships!

Scratch and Bocoe' friendship was born from something the two agreed on a long time ago. They both have people they care deeply about ; people they cannot let anything happen to. So Scratch and Bocoe agreed that if something happened to either of them, the other would help take care of their family. From there however, this simple agreement grew into a a close friendship: they could understand each other ; what it's like to have a family to look after.

Coconuts was always a bit of a loner- while a part of Grounder and Scratch's family, he never considered them as his siblings and they never considered him one either. He appreciates Bocoe and Decoe, but doesn't relate to them in terms of their relationship to one another or their roles as parents. But when Orbot- someone who had been hurt by their creator in similar ways and still struggled with remnant feelings of loyalty towards him ; something Coconuts himself had experienced in the very beginning ; joined the Sanctuary, the two naturally gravitated towards each other. They can spend hours talking about nothing and while Orbot can't eat, he greatly enjoys helping Coconuts cook.

They had Orbot officiate the wedding

Bokkun was the ring bearer, of course

Scratch & Grounder got to put on their Best Man & Maid of Honor outfits again

Cubot was the church organ player

D.U.F.U.S. was the church organ

Coconuts took care of catering

They are absolutely playing with each other's fingers as they gossip. They are sharing the tea in the most affectionate way possible. Endless lil robo kisses and compliments are mandatory in that relationship.
