[saym0-0]

my favourite spg headcanon is that they all have inbuilt profanity filters but spine's broke somehow and instead of fixing it they just let him loose on youtube shorts/tiktok

People are asking about it so here it is!

The Spine Hc Angst Relating to Peter Walter I

This sorta turns into borderline a full backstory but aa who cares

Zer0 was abandoned and Rabbit was literally killed by Peter Walter I. I refuse to believe The Spine was such a perfect robot that Peter just left him alone.

I like to believe that after the success of Rabbit’s invention, Peter held The Spine to a much greater standard. So much greater to the point where he wasn’t being realistic. He knew he had the capabilities to program The Spine to be exactly what he wanted The Spine to be.

Two conflicting traits he gave were curiosity and maturity. Though curiosity isn’t inherently childish, you could only ask so many questions before people would assume you were born yesterday.

Because he expects The Spine to be mature, he doesn’t allow The Spine to indulge in any “childish“ activities.

One thing is that Rabbit thinks Peter prefers The Spine because he’s dedicated so much time into perfecting him, but The Spine thinks Peter prefers Rabbit because he seems like he actually likes her and she has many more permissions than he does.

Sometimes Peter will read stories to Rabbit to help her power down, but when The Spine asks to be read stories, he says no since The Spine is supposed to be, “More mature than Rabbit, and he doesn’t need them”. Rabbit might read The Spine stories in secret on occasion.

The Spine was not allowed to play with toys. If he was ever caught with a toy of any kind, they would be given away or destroyed depending on the quality of the toy.

The Spine was never allowed to read children books or watch children shows. He would have his siblings update him on any of his interests in media made for children if he had any.

He’s not allowed to play with his siblings, but instead, he’s expected to supervise.

Overall, he was expected to be “The best robot”. Whenever he wasn’t, he’d get adjusted, which he hated because he never knew what parts of him Peter was going to change. Most of the time he wouldn’t know what he did wrong. Which if he couldn’t figure out what he did wrong, the adjusting process would take 10x longer. The Spine would find himself overthinking everything he did wrong when he couldn’t be the perfect robot. This is part of the reason why he cares so much about the public perception of him.

During moments where he broke, he felt embarrassed and guilty. Peter would never tell him that his system failures were his fault, but he’d complain a lot whenever he had to fix them, making The Spine feel as if it was his fault for all the times he was broken. Like he was Wired Wrong.

Eventually, he’d start repairing himself. Which he got praise for, but if he ever made a mistake, boy did he feel like a failure. He’d be terrified of admitting to Peter Walter that he broke himself, but he would confess when he needed to because Peter would only get madder if he tried to hide it. Still, he was yelled at every time he made a mistake in fixing himself. The Spine would still keep trying though because he’d breakdown less when he attended to himself. His biggest issue is that he can get a bit too good at fixing himself and ends up overdoing it. Hence, over attenuated hydraulics.

Of course, after Delilah’s death, Peter was a lot more strict and critical with The Spine. There were times where The Spine was treated poorly due to Peter’s grief alone, but because he didn’t understand grief, he thought that his existence was the problem. He’d end up being hyper-aware of every little thing he did. Thinking that there was some sort of special way to behave around Peter in order to avoid setting him off. He was cautious of everything. His walk, his voice, the sound of the steam leaving his body, the glow of his eyes. He didn’t know what it was that would hurt Peter Walter I, but he always thought it was himself.

When Peter I died, the pressure to be the perfect robot only got stronger, so it ended up becoming a core aspect of his personality. To be the most mature, well maintained, and to keep his siblings in check.

It wasn’t until Peter Walter VI where he’d start to embrace his inner child. After seeing how well he responded to the rest of his siblings’ changes. He finally felt more comfortable with being himself. A tall robot dork.

Sorry to send another ask so soon (and idk if someones asked this already) but if you have any headcanons for Jon I'd love to hear them!

OK SO im really sorry it took me THIS long to get to this i quite literally.. forgot i had smth in my inbox woopsies. the reason i remembered is cause mootie posted some Spine hcs and i was like "woah"

alsooo im not good at putting my thoughts onto "paper" especially in english so you will have to excuse me

anywho my jon headcanons some sad some random /ref

First of all i think that his relationship with Peter Walter I would be far from close. he would be seen as the type of child who's both "too much mess to take care of" and "strong enough to take care of himself" if that makes sense. Peter did love him as his creation but would openly admit that he's not his proudest one, meanwhile Jon wouldn't feel much connection at all. he sympathized with his creator but only in a way he would with any other human being, there was more gratitude than love

Jon struggles with constant malfunctions and his mechanisms are a mess (partially because he gets himself in trouble all the time), so at one point Peter would get tired of fixing him so frequently, and tell him that he can just "walk some things off". That thought stuck to the bot and he would think of all of his malfunctions as slight inconveniences, i mean, he can still perform so why pay attention to the constant neck pain or powering up struggles ? it just became a habit and he kind of forgot that things like that shouldn't be ignored

After a long while when Peter Walter VI grew up enough to start learning more about how automatons work, Jon would be used as a "lab rat" (not really but its just what he himself called it) for young VI to practice fixing mechanisms. thats pretty much when he heard "Wait this cant be right" about his messed up physical state for the first time in a long while. little Peter didnt get to fix all of the things that were wrong with Jon's body, but he did manage to take care of some of them, which almost surprised Jon with how nice it felt to not hear pieces of broken gears rattle in his head every time he moved (who wouldve thunk)

ok now to more lighthearted stuff !!

Jon actually has a very strong bond with Sam ! He loves watching the mustached man work and sometimes follows him around, just enjoying his company. At first Sam thought that the tone-gold automaton was creepy and uncanny, but grew attached to him and his stupidity (/lh). i also think that Sam would be one of the few Walter workers who dont baby the Jon and actually treat him like they would treat any other robot :3

Also Jon just loves his robot family endlessly. shocker !! im not sure how explain it but i think hes the only one to look at other Walter automatons and go "bro i love them so much" at all times. in his head at least. obviously he teases them and argues with them but he wont think twice before accepting a hug from his siblings (except for Upgrade theyre rivals /j)

Speaking of Upgrade !! They feel the most sibling-ish to me (aside from Rabbit & The Spine) because they constantly poke fun at each other yet they still are willing to give each other help and comfort when needed. She once had to carry him all the way back to the Walter manor because they forgot to take some extra cans of crystal pepsi

Also Upgrade got in an accident once which caused her to have a fractured face for a couple of days, and Jon was there the entire time to comfort her and constantly tell her that shes still very pretty

Unlike with other robots, the food that Jon eats doesnt just fall through his uncovered jaw/run into his boiler or anything like this, instead it just. disappears. once he closes his mouth the food just vanishes into the unknown, yet Jon claims that he enjoys the process of "eating" (nobody knows how it works)

LITTLE GIRLS THAT GO TO SPG SHOWS LOVE HIM !! once the band finishes performing, he constantly gets pulled away by a small giggling pink-ish blob to join their tea party or hula hooping contest. thats why he has quite a knowledge on "girly" themes and educates other automatons on the matter

THATS IT FOR NOW TY FOR READING :3

[star-keepr]

The Jon headcanons because I have been inspired by @chaotic-tired-bastard and @owlhari and my brain is going whirrrrrrrrrrrrr :]

-gives kisses to everyone platonically. in an older vid you can see him do this to Upgrade and I'd like to think it's one of his ways of showing affection

-love language is mostly physical touch and sometimes gift giving, he likes doodling and anything crafty/colorful

-this is one Owlhari brings up in their vid of the bots and disorders, but I also like to think The Jon has an extremely overactive and vast imagination, often imagining himself as the characters the band sings about and daydreaming in his freetime. these adventures can often be seen leaking into his songs and other mediums

-ADORES birds. no crazy reason either, he just thinks they're pretty and wishes he could fly like one. some of his favorites are robins, kingfishers, parakeets/parrots, doves, and bluejays, and if you catch him in a good mood he can be heard whistling like birds

-loves making all sorts of forts and structures out of the silly things in his room. his room is rather large and filled with curious objects and way too many pillows. he obviously takes advantage of this.

-will not go anywhere without the appropriate feather in his hat. he has one for every occasion, and I mean *every* occasion. he screams like he's naked if he's caught without a feather and will refuse to go anywhere if one is not chosen. he is very particular about them.

-kind of blunt with what he says. it's not really implied that he realizes this, but that means he'll be honest with you even if it comes with some brutal observations. he doesn't quite understand you're not supposed to do that because he was told honesty was part of being polite.

-while his siblings are much heavier than the average human, Jon is lighter due to the void in his chest. he uses this to his advantage as it means he can interact more physically with humans (with their say-so usually)

-his art/writing style is very scribbly and childlike, with lots of swirls and colors

-adores any warm colors (red, yellow, orange, bronze)

-constantly gets into shenanigans, especially with Rabbit and Hatchworth

-Upgrade is like a twin sister to him, whenever she's on a royal tyrant streak she'll always be merciful with Jon in return for some origami figurines

-one of Jon's favorite aesthetics is art-deco, much like how he was designed

-Jon's favorite era is the 1920's-50's, as he adores the fashion, colors, toys, and items from that time. he is also really good at swing dancing, and often likes to play old records just to practice it. a partner is always welcomed ;}

-loves learning about (preferably colorful) animals in books/documentaries made by like natgeo and such. loves trying to impersonate David Attenborough

-clumsy but in an endearing way (clumsy but in a /silly /pos way yk)

-absolutely melts at compliments, especially ones that revolve around the buzzwords "victorian" and "doll"

-when outside, Jon is the type of person (or thing,,,,,?) to make daisy chains/crowns, oogle at butterflies, make wishes on dandelions, and name literally every bird just by its chirp

-adores cartoons and/or anything animated, the only exception being the Marx Brothers' movies in which he idolizes Harpo Marx for being such a cartoony role model

-often finds it difficult to fully express how he feels, this can lead to over/under exaggeration, frustration, getting caught up on words or sentences, or taking conversation breaks to sort out his head

-his favorite story/animation is Alice in Wonderland in all of its iterations. loves playing the Mad Hatter if his siblings ever get around to acting the stories out in their freetime

-often feels like he's a burden because of how high maintenance/jumpy/bubbly he is. because of this he has a hard time opening up about things in fear that he'll just weigh someone down even more

-loves the occasional ponytail or wacky hairstyle. he finds it difficult to do the styles himself with his range and type of motion, but will gladly accept if a human/fellow walter worker is willing to help out

-sucker for good harmonies

-envies Rabbit's art, he likes all the shapely swoops and swirls it has

-definitely the naiive one of the bunch. often worries much more than he should about small things but has learned to tone that down a little in favor of being all upbeat and silly

[steam-powered-chaos]

For some reason I hc Hatchworth as aroace cause I cannot see that boy in a relationship, it’s either that or he’s a whore /pos

[my-sleepy-head]

Headcanons, all about The Spine’s fins(and tail)!

Spine’s fins are sensitive, meant primarily to help cool him down, estimating ambient temperature and make him look bigger as a threat response. They’re connected to large vents on his back, sliding in and out of them, and therefore make him feel cold if they’re extended in cool to chilly weather.

Banging up the fins or somehow misalignment them is uncomfortable to downright painful and he had to be careful with his guitar strap as to not hurt himself when his fins are extended.

They’re also rather sharp, able to tear through fabric and potentially human flesh if he isn’t careful and that they extend suddenly, for this reason most if not all this clothes are made to accommodate his fins extending and retracting.

Rubbing the fins and spinal plating feels good if done properly, almost like a massage, and it helps relieve discomfort, pain and even stress. Only people he trusts dearly can touch his sensitive fins and spinal plating.

His body language(and therefore tail and fin language) changes depending on wether or not he’s in his chassis. In chassis extended fins may simply mean he’s in need of cooling down, getting ready to go on stage, they were uncomfortable retracted or he’s experiencing a strong emotion. In this case look at his face, the way he holds himself and his tail to see how he feels. (Tail wagging can mean happiness, a specially when paired with positive stimming or be stimming in of itself. Sharp and harsh tail movements however show aggravation and annoyance. Tail trying to tuck between his legs or around his leg show fear and anxiety). Out of chassis extended find mean “don’t step on me! I’m down here!” Or “it’s too hot leave me alone please.” He will wiggle his entire body to express a happy wag. If he buzzes his tail he wants to be left alone(in both cases). He will buzz his tail in such was that it hits things to be more audible if at risk of getting stepped on.

Could you give me anything Peter Walter VI related? I've been hyperfixated on him specifically but there's barely any content 💔

Of course, Anon! I hope you enjoy this! The only TWS I can think of is Peter's blue matter incident and a mentioned panic attack at the end.

-The void situation with Pete’s is kinda wonky

-Like… there’s a void??? But also kinda not??

-You put your hand on his face and it sinks into the void, but he can interact with his facial features

-Like, he can eat pizza or pop tarts or whatever, but nobody else can touch his facial features

-He has a stuffed dinosaur that he sleeps with called Bananas

-The dinosaur is an Ultrasaurus and bright purple. Nobody knows why he called it Bananas

-He actually quite likes the texture of felt!

-He’s a natural blond, but when he was 13 he had his emo phase and dyed it red

-The colour didn’t come out for a year and he destroyed any evidence of this phase

-(Rabbit totally has pictures hung up in her room)

-He’s autistic. There’s no question- he just is (Self-projection much?)

-The Blue Matter blast altered his physics a bit!! -For example, he can sometimes run faster and longer than someone like him should, and other times he can’t run more than three feet without being winded

-Another example; at times, he’s extremely flexible (like enough to put his legs behind his head with ease) and at others, he can’t even bend over without feeling like he pulled a muscle

-I feel like Peter would be asexual and hetero (Idk why, I just do)

-This kid is smart

-Like he designed his first reactor core when he was 7

-Despite his brilliance, he can’t draw to save his life

-You think he can sing? Naaaaahh

-Funnily enough, this trait is hereditary

-Peter has a unique grasp on understanding the different types of matter, as he is partially made of it(??? Sustained by it??)

-It’s kinda like the situation with Commander Cosmo/Peter Walter IV

-The Blue Matter is so integrated with his body/mind that any steps taken to remove it would prove disastrous for the removers and Peter

-Peter can sometimes phase through things

-If there’s a spike in his Blue Matter Activity, like when his emotions are high, his atoms get all jazzed and he temporarily gains the ability to go through things

-He found this out when he was having a panic attack and phased through the floor and onto The Spine reading a book in his fluffy pink bathrobe :)

Steam Powered Giraffe thoughts pt. 2

You can not tell me that the automatons don’t love classic games like Mario Kart, Wii Sports, and Minecraft. I can just imagine our favourite steam-powered band members gathered around the tv playing Minecraft~~

The Spine is collecting resources and mining. He's the one that will try to get all the achievements and make it to the end. He just started but somehow is already close to a full set of diamond armour.

Zer0 and Hatchworth are befriending and taming all the animals. They have a pack of dogs, cats, birds, and lamas. They do not understand why you can’t tame the spiders.

The Jon is building a house. The house is really weird though, there are rooms dedicated to things like sponges and cakes. There is a somehow functional washroom. How? We don’t know.

Rabbit is adventuring across the world leaving chests and beds dotted in every biome. She totally burnt down a village or 2. Was it intentional or an accident? I'll let you choose.

Headcanon that The Spine has a bad habit of eating things he's not supposed to just like the others, but his good reputation and his tendency to hound the others whenever they eat causes him to be extra secretive about it. That's why he was so defensive when Zer0 called him out for eating names.

R: "Are you sure it's not filled with nougat?" Z: "Yeah, Spine already checked- HEY! Get those names out of your mouth!" S: "DON'T TELL ME WHAT- Uh- uh... Sorry... I was just testing them."

Warning late night ramblings that probably don't makes sense to anyone else but me

(Mostly sad)

BIG BROTHER SPINE GAGSGS GF UFODKDKDJFNR

Spine cares about his siblings way to much he saw his siblings his only family get hurt in the war(s) after that he made a promise to take care of them make sure they never get hurt ever again

When rabbit came out he was worried not because she is trans no no he was worried about how people would treat her because hes seen how fucked up the world is and he doesn't want his sister to go through that

Hes so focused on keeping his siblings safe that he doesn't let himself love and one of the only times he ever fell in love he got scared .he got scared because this was the 1st time he ever felt love for somebody else

He has a lot of walls he put up but once you get past them hes a huge romantic softy

Hes wayyyy to protective hes like the dad that integrates you s/o when he meets you for the 1st time

He often throws himself into his work he works sooo hard only stopping when he physically can't work anymore and when that happens he often feels kind of useless but his siblings understand and try to confront him

Anyway idk what this post is it is 11:48 at the time of writing this is mostly just word vomit Based around my big brother spine hc

[star-keepr]

hello hello here's another spg brainrot post <3

here's how I think the bots would react to u if u were overstimulated/overwhelmed

Rabbit: would immediately try distracting you with more chaos in an attempt to make you laugh. this has a 50% success rate and if she realizes it isn't working she'll just hug you silently till you stop crying, afterward offering things like snacks or sharing her own shortcomings. if necessary, the comfort movies will be used.

The Spine: notices your discomfort rather quickly and takes you away from the situation. he'll do the best he can to give you advice or try to help in some way (if you're crying/hyperventilating) and generally keep your surroundings quiet. he can be a little awkward with this as it isn't something he's typically used to, but helps u anyways because he's a cool robot :]. will try to take your mind off things with coversation of movies, music, dinosaurs, anything he can think of, listening intently to whatever you say. if you say you need anything (blankets, tissues, etc) he'll get it for you, but chances are if you know each other he'll already have those ready for you.

Hatchworth: wouldn't really pick up on your discomfort until you had to leave or you physically started crying/hyperventilating. means well though, and once he notices you're not doing alright he'll take you somewhere small to hide (a fort, under a table, behind a bookshelf) and ask you questions about why you're sad and why you do this. he has no malice behind his queries, he genuinely wants to understand how/why you do this and if he can help prevent it in the future. by the time you finish explaining things to him you'll likely to have calmed down, and then he'll offer a mystery sandwich. you must accept, even if you don't eat it.

Zer0: your mood is his mood. if he finds you upset or overwhelmed, he has a magic way of always understanding. he will provide you with hugs and silent comfort, possibly even crying a bit himself. a great bot to go to if you need physical comfort, or just to know someone else understands. will offer you his favorite dinosaur toys that he definitely didn't steal from Spine.

The Jon: taken aback at first by the sight of you, but will waste no time in bringing you either outside or to a pillow fort he made, staying close to you the entire time and keeping some sort of physical contact (i.e., hand on your arm, touching shoulders, just to remind you he's there and not going anywhere). will listen intently and happily talk to you for hours, not minding if you have a hard time responding (he'll wait patiently for you to respond). I mentioned that he does this in my headcanons list, but he'd definitely give you lil platonic kisses all over your face and hands. would also shower you with stuffies and things he finds around the area you two are in, trying to smile in hopes it will be infectious. if desired, he'll tell you whimsical stories and adventures of his time in Biscuit Town.

Upgrade: would offer if you wanted to rule alongside her (everyone knows she's a princess) in her kingdom, and would ramble on about your new royal duties and what her imaginary kingdom is like. she wouldn't really care if you listen or not, but you are expected to at least nod or acknowledge her. she'll let you have varying amounts of power over the kingdom depending on how sad you are.

What do each of the Nindroids think about Steam Powered Giraffe?

So I was having a conversation with a friend and this topic came up, so time to list our findings, plus my own takes! And, also, for those who don’t know: Steam Powered Giraffe, in short, is a band whose gimmick is that each member is their own robot, all of their songs are in character and they’ve also got ✨lore✨.

Zane

He LOVES them. Although it took a while (actual years) for him to get that they’re not actually fellow nindroids, just people dressed up as them. Zane finds a lot of their more robot-centric songs relatable and has been to several concerts.

Pixal

More of a casual fan than anything. Their stuff is objectively good and she likes all of what she’s heard, but she’s not as into it as Zane (and certainly didn’t not realize the band is human). Her favorite is probably “Only Human” because it reminds her of her time with her father before she got roped into the ninja’s shenanigans (she also recognized the true message of the song which was the robots taking care of a sick person and she enjoyed that hidden meaning).

Cryptor

Oh he HATES them. Like, with a burning passion. Everything they do, sing, and write is clearly an attempt to mock nindroids and their struggles. How dare.

Sentry

He’s heard of them and doesn’t really have any strong feelings either way. It’s objectively good music, just not the stuff he’d listen to. He’s also the one mainly responsible for calming Cryptor down if the music is played in proximity to him.

Echo

Not Mr. E? He loves them, same as his brother!

Mr. E? Uh- he totally didn’t listen to their entire discography in one night! What are you talking about? Shut up. He hates them with a passion! Just like Cryptor! He only went to that concert or dozen just to make fun of it afterward with Cryptor!

Movieverse Nindroids

M!Zane, M!Echo, M!Cryptor, M!Mindroid, and Kaigami

HUGE fans. They’ve been to multiple concerts, have merchandise, and even cosplayed all six robots with Chen (the cheerleader) once. Each have their own favorite songs and albums but they can agree they LOVE the band.

M!Pixal

She’s heard of them and listened to a few songs. Much like Show!Sentry, her feelings aren’t really here nor there on them.

M!Sentry

Comfort band. He’s not a mega fan but he does have a shirt or two and likes the subject matter the band tackles in their songs as it pertains to robots/nindroids.
