Is That A Swarm Of Locust In Your Pants Or Are Your Dick And Balls Just Heralding The End Of Days

I got some light-hearted headcanon for you. There’s a blackboard in one of BBEG’s classrooms that has an attendance list of what I interpret to be students. Most of these students are physically disabled so they’re able to recognise Billy’s cyborg implants as prosthetics — Billy’s cyborg enhancements only connect nerves to the prosthetic limbs, they do not replace missing limbs. Meanwhile the few who aren’t disabled genuinely buy into the robot gimmick. Anyway, Billy ends up playing into this robot gimmick while explaining his disability so that the abled children are familiarised with it. And subsequently, the disabled chidren end up feeling more comfortable with their conditions. There’s a weird hypocrisy in Billy when it comes to his self-presentation. When he’s in public he expects himself to be “The Well-made Robot,” but when he’s behind closed doors he’s “Mr. Billy.” So there is some conflict and confusion among the children as to why Mr. Billy always tells them to be “unashamed of your differences,” and yet in his interview shows plays an act — Mr. Billy avoids the children’s questions though eventually caves in, spilling his internalised ableism rhetoric that he inherited from his father’s paranoia and insecurity.

Overtime though — in a timeline where BBEG:11YL doesn’t happen — as he spends more time with the kids he learns to let go of this internalised rhetoric, and actually follow his own advice :^) be unashamedly himself, imperfections embraced.

omg;;;;;;; that's so cute!!

That's mostly how I see him too..hes like 75% cyborg because I hc as an engineer/robotics guy so ofc he's gonna do crazy mods on his prosthetics

But I see him more as robot because I'm evil and what took his legs was a disease that also ate at his limbs until he decided fuck it im astro boy I guess lol

(not?) Fun fact both mira and billy are hypocrites because they love each other's perceived flaws; Mira thinks billy is cool as fuck and wants to help him, and billy thinks Mira is soooo pretty and kind. These are traits neither see in themselves (self destructive queers blast GO!!!)

Oughhhh my god, imagine Junior showing off his family history to Mira but it’s not about the legacy or achievements, it’s just a bunch of dumb shit that they did. Like, “This is when my dad tried to water ski,” proceeds to hold up a photo of a white blur speeding over a lake. “That’s the door frame I broke while riding a vaccum cleaner,” points to the side of a wooden door frame that has a visible dent. “One time my dad tried to commision a carpenter but he didn’t know what types of wood there were, but instead of admitting he just lied because he wanted to be a cool guy.”

Bonus if he does this deliberately when his dad is trying to show off to Mira, or if Mira keeps talking big about him.

I like to headcanon that Junior’s antics isn’t him trying to sabotage his father’s romantic ventures but rather testing his love interests. He expects Mira to make fun of or look down on these things because he knows that most people only want his dad for The Well-made Robot — a truth he figured out the hard way — and not Mr. Billy. So when Mira reacts sympathetically or casually, and even likes Billy more because the perfect idol image has been broken by his human mistakes. She goes real high in Junior’s tier list.

omg Junior accidentally becoming Billy's wingman. Mira would laugh so hard at those photos and stories. Billy is more or less a tough nut to crack, so Mira being shown that this tough guy image is a complete facade comforts them.

((maybe billy doesn't mind because he likes how Mira sounds when they laugh 👀👀👀))

Mira is a goober when they want to be and makes up dumb jokes and scenarios to "embarass" Billy further but they don't ever mean it to hurt him. Infact knowing Billy is fully capable to mistakes they tease him about it from time to time but always make it up to him with (1) forehead kiss :33333
