lmao ok so one of my friends really wanted me to play that one roblos murder drones game where you can make your own drone with them. i made a disassembly drone, they played as the teacher at some point and we joked around a lot how my drone kept molesting the teacher and wouldn't leave him alone during class n stalked him outside of it.
i ended up really liking this dynamic and actually turned the drone i made into an oc to ship with teacher... this is where mimi originated, so truly it's more of the character that's into the teacher. though i do enjoy his apathetic nature of not giving a shit about absolutely anything, mimi likes this as well as it reminds him of something he can't exactly pinpoint why...
