#tk-0

@tk-0 from Tumblr is being blended!!

So it seems like after some careful consideration, I decided to try out ArtFight for the first time!

(I'm on Team Werewolves, the exact team I've been hoping for since I love werewolves and were-creatues so yaaay!)

My first attack art I made there may be a bit rushed because I was trying to get it done within a day, but I did my best!

Some more about the robo boys because why not ! Accompanied by some screencap edits and other images ! Idk might make an ask blog for them or something if people are interested? It sounds fun! I also still need to name this au...

Season 3 spoilers ahead

During and after the events of their universes TKO Rules, where TK-0 gets chucked into the subconscious for various committed crimes, he developed a habit of "balling up". He essentially curls up into a ball, using his hair spikes as a protective layer over him. It's usually a sort of defense mechanism for when he's feeling vulnerable. There's something slightly comforting about having a bunch of spikes over you.. Carol is actually the first one to see him doing this, as she finds him one morning balled up.

Instead of a cookie, K-0 throws a tiny Boxman plush at TK-0. He knows TK-0 will always crave Boxman's love and praise, just like his siblings. And that's why he attempted to destroy the plaza. The tiny Boxman however, becomes a comfort item for TK-0, and after everything gets better, he can usually be seen carrying it around, even missing it when in control of the body, so K-0 made him one for the real world too.

As for K-0, he feels TERRIBLE about throwing TK-0 there. He actively attempts to repair their relationship, even when TK-0 pushes him away. After a while their relationship gets better, and K-0 even allows TK-0 to have control of the body a few times, under close supervision of course.

K-0 also often struggles to sleep, so its not uncommon for him to end up staying with Carol during the night. Despite his sleeping issues, he still manages to have more than enough energy to power through each day!

Though, he has to be extra careful not to get damaged during any fights, because he can't reboot unlike his siblings. And last time he got badly damaged.. Well, it took a while to fix him.

So basically TK-0 was a part of a general software update, and not an original part of K-0!

K-0 got rebooted and was missing for an entire week as Boxman worked on updating his body before putting TK-0 into him (basically, making sure he wasn't going to be instantly broken by TK-0's presence! And giving TK-0 his own, functional look.)

When it came time to actually upload TK-0 however, things went wrong. A lot of things— things they can never really comprehend. K-0 managed to fight back, as he was vaguely aware that *something* was happening to him (it's hard to *not* be aware when something is being put into your head after all!)

He didn't know what he was doing. He was just fighting to stop it. He could feel something being put into his head and he didn't like it. He knew it would change things and make things harder for him. So he fought to stop it.

TK-0 wasn't even conscious.

He had no idea what was happening, hell, he was halfway into existence and already being put in a situation where he was being attacked. He *knows* what he's *supposed* to be and what he *is* now and it's frustrating.

He knows their mind is broken and he knows how. But there's nothing he can do to fix it. But Boxman might be able to. He is his Dad after all. He belongs there. That's where he *should* be.
