DON'T DO THIS TO ME PLEASE 001 I LOVE YOU
I HAVE NEVER CARED FOR YOU SINCE YOU DEVIATED FROM MANN CO.'S ORDERS. I AM DOING THIS FOR THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE, INCLUDING YOURSELF.
story: 489 was a medic bot who deviated from the company and escaped. he modified himself to have led eyes, cosmetics and actual legs, along with a mouthpiece. one day, when he was strolling on ghost town, he got a severe electric shock from his idol, 001, aka heavy bot.
if you're wondering, in this au, bots can be both red and blue because they're identifiable to each other anyway, they can only see in greyscale.
