( He's a huge problematic fave. I love him but also he's literal self destructive garbage and I just want to hold his claw or sit on his gun tiddies and S O B S )

He doesn't really pay attention to you at first. Like okay. Cool. Some weird squishy thing everyone loves. Lame. He's just going to ignore you. Thinks your a pet more than a person. Yadayada on to his next destructive thing.

But than the weird squishy thing began talking to him when he was around. Began trying to get to know him and asking him questions about his life and what he did in the colony. They weren't scared of him and despite his best efforts you continued to seek him out at events when he was alone. He was defensive at first pushing you off and ignoring you but you kept coming back.

You were patient, kind, and soft. Something he and many others in the colony were not used to. Something others but he himself couldn't really understand. A puzzle of sorts. He thought you a manipulator or a lair but the more you gently pushed the more he began to give. Soon enough like a parasite he couldn't get rid of, your presense was deamed tolerable but annoying at times.

However, it was very clear he held some kind of affection for you. You carefully talked him out fights and to the shock of everyone he listened. You got him to talk to Rung more openly and be nicer to Cyclonus and Tailgate. You slowly eased him back into his love of clocks and clockmaking. It took time but he made trinkets and things he loved and he became less angry. He was still a mess and he had his anger issues and insatiable need for violence but he also had you.

He acts like he despises you when he's around others but it's very clear he adores you and would fight for your honor. In secret he'll give you nuzzles like the other bugs and likes holding you close for body warmth. Its a couple months later when he leaves a little clock outside your room in the Hive that's when you know you've become his true friend.
