Collaboration project with the user: brave kid.

After brave kid approached me with a compliment and story concept, I listened. Their idea was that after "Sibling Rivalry," the Raymond-bot was discontinued. He's found by Dendy, who decides to repair the bot and use him for good, and as such, he finds a new family with his new baby sister.

Thinking about this. I quite enjoyed the concept and this would lead to changes in the show's cannon and other chapters focusing on headcanons for Dendy's home and how a robot could survive.

Dendy had not expected quite the find on her little exploration of the Bodega's dumpster alley. But an intact Raymond-bot laid there, decommissioned, something shoved in its old power source. Curiosity getting better of the kappa, Dendy decided to see if it was a somewhat intact glorb. Instead, it was a crumpled up piece of blueprints. Dendy plucked it out carefully, trying to make sure the Raymond-bot would not turn on and she opened it up. It was his blueprints. Original copies, beta-designs, testing results…and the newest showing the current Raymond that lay decommissioned before her. Hmm…surely this robot could be used for good…a few tweaks here and there to make it better and modifying the circuits to make it want to help others would be able to work…Dendy thought to herself.

She looked over the bot. I should leave it as a surprise for K.O. Oh, wouldn't he be excited to see that I'm able to fix someone onto the side of heroes!? Dendy resolved to get her other friend, a spark human named URL to help her with the transportation. She didn't want to accidentally code something that had to deal with shrinking and have something else happen. She'd only coded non-sentient creatures, and wasn't quite sure where the Box-more robots fit in.

URL was quick to help the small kappa transport the robot, and was quickly called away to help out another person in danger online, which he quickly used Dendy's hackpack to get onto the internet and help the person being attacked.

Dendy smiled. She was glad that URL was able to help people in that way. Sort of like the Lion from the dead D.A.R.E. program that she had read about. URL helped people with viruses or predators online. He was really quite the unique hero.

Dendy brought the Raymond-bot to her outback lab, trying to keep him from touching any of the sewage water that she lived near. It wasn't the best place she'd heard of kappas living in, (she'd read about oasises that canniballistic kappas lived) but it was her home, and it wasn't all bad, apart from the smell. Which was tolerable considering she'd lived in it all her life and she also lived near the plaza's sewers, which actually gave off a soothing aroma.

She brought it back and began to work on the blue-prints and fixing him up. "A little change there would make him 15% more efficiant…I could completely reroute this, but then I'd have top change this wire cluster…Change this wire to there for maximum potential instead of nearly over-heating every time…A little change here at the core should change his destructive tendancies…I could probably recode this part for more heroic tendancies…"

"Den!" Her father, Pavel, called. "It's time for dinner!"

"Coming Dad!" Dendy walked away from the robot, excited about her progress thanks to her skills in coding and the blueprints of all the different versions of the Raymond-bot.

"So, Dendy, what kind of project are you working on now?" Her mother, Pepelina, asked her daughter.

"I am currently working on reprogramming a robot to use for good!"

"Oh, that sounds exciting!" Pavel cheered.

"Oh, you must let us see when it is finished."

"Well, I think if I skip dessert I might be able to get done tonight!"

"Gee, you sure you want to skip dessert?" Her father asked.

"Well, I'm so close to making a break-through, judging by the blueprints. If I finish up all the minor tweaking, I could get him running real soon!"

"I suppose one night without dessert wouldn't hurt dear." Pepelina reassured. "Besides, she's really excited to see this big project of hers complete!"

"Indeed!"

"Alright," Paval relented.

After their dinner, Dendy quickly went back out. She made the minor tweaks, a few fixed joints, a reattachment of the eye, fixing up some chips in the paint using her hackpack…all she needed to do now was show her parents. "Mom! Dad! I'm going to make it work!"

Her parents came out, excited to see the project. They silently questioned the design choice…but watched carefully as their daughter placed in a glorb, which used to sometimes come out of the sewers that they lived near.

Dendy stood back as the robot turned out. A few blinks of its eyes before it looked to her. It stood up, looming over her.

Dendy got into a defensive position, only to suddenly find herself in the arms of the robot.

"Oh, thank you so much for the repairs new baby sister!" Raymond cheered, holding the kappa close to his robotic chest.

"What?" Was all that Dendy managed.
