Bender x Shapeshifter!Bot Repairer!Reader
Bender is really snippy with you when you first meet, more demanding than the average robot. This customer doesn’t waste time with pleasantries, simply tells you what he needs done and asks that you do it practically on the spot. Naturally, you tell him he has to wait his turn like everyone else, he’s not the Queen of Robo-England.
He huffs and crosses back to your waiting seats. Glancing up from the circuit you’re soldering, you catch him trying to steal one of your tubs of polish and smack his hand with the one not holding heated iron, only for that bravado to completely fade as he whines an overdramatic ‘owww!’.
“Baby,” you tease, smirking and picking your wrench back up, “I could have made my hand three times that size.”
“Baby?” You hear him repeat under his breath, not knowing it was his catchphrase although you meant it in a very different way. “Made your…”. He gasps. “Are you a shapeshifter?”
“What do you think?” You asked, humanoid form rippling away, shrinking and lowering until you looked like a talking cat.
“If you can take any shape, why don’t you go peak performance and turn into a robot?”
“Our shifting only works with organic materials,” you remind him, growing and resuming your position on your hind legs, face so close to his your forehead is practically resting against the cool metal, “I can’t exactly turn my DNA into wire and steel. I like to think that actually makes me better at playing with them.”
“I’ll be the judge of that. By the way, I’m Bender, baby.”
You rolled your eyes, but you knew you brought it on yourself and were far less than mad about it. Telling him your name, you patted the workbench in front of you, PCB long forgotten. He climbed up on there and yanked open his cavity door, jolting when you connected him to your diagnostic port. You told him to stay still, he told you to bite his shiny metal ass, he immediately rescinded that when you gave him a reboot so good he saw stars, and the rest was history.
☆ Even in the early days of your relationship, Bender is always asking you to change into this or that for his amusement. The only reason you put up with the demands is how hard he giggles about it, which in turn makes you laugh.
☆ As is always the case, when you become official Bender loves to show you off, but he has the added benefit of boasting about your relationship and skills all at once. “The only one who gets to put their hands on my processor like that is my baby~” “You losers have to go to the doctor but I’ve got the best mechanic at my beck and call, isn’t that right?” Had it not been for the love and pride dripping from the way he adds your name, you’d be giving him another little smack love tap instead of just teasingly telling him that’s right, his repairs are free unless he really pisses you off.
☆ Another favorite boon of your ability to your beloved bot is when you take a form small enough to curl up inside his cavity. Bender will open it up to show everyone how cute you look in there and woe to anyone who talks even remotely too loud if you fall asleep in there.
☆ Probably tries to convince you to add whatever modifications suit his whims on a given day, making sure to include requests for things that would, ahem, benefit you too.
☆ “Quick, turn into something big, I need to hide!” That phrase has become very common in your life of late.
☆ You’re one of the few people who can tolerate Bender’s cooking since you can literally transform your body into that of a species that tolerates whatever he metaphorically throws at you!
☆ Bender finds himself loosing up and gushing about how much he loves you when you work your magic, the tricks and tune-ups you’ve learned over the years his equivalent of a massage that has him turning to gallium beneath your practical yet gentle hands. You may catch him all but purring. Point it out, though, and he’ll deny it.
☆ “I say kill all humans, but you aren’t a human and that’s why you get to stay!”
☆ Gets so jealous when you’re repairing other robots he’ll be in your lap demanding extra love as payment whenever he sees you at work 😘
☆ You and Bender practically have skill-offs when people need things, you hurriedly shifting taller and taller as your boyfriend extends his arms or legs, trying to bump you so he can beat you to it. For once, he suddenly wants to help people when it’s a contest…and secretly he wants to impress you too! You’re so amazing, he can’t help trying to find something he can provide for you when it already seems like you can do it all!
