I love questions like this!

Honestly both 😭 Sometimes ideas just pop into my head out of nowhere, but usually something triggers it. It could be a trope, a character type, a song, a picture, a random scenario, or literally just one stupid little thought like “wait… what if he did THIS?” and then my brain goes “oh yeah, that’d make a good bot.”

I’ve also always loved reading since I was young, especially getting lost in stories and imagining different scenarios, so I think that probably contributed to it too. I’ve always had a really active imagination and loved writing, so I guess making bots is just another way I get to play around with all those ideas.

Then I accidentally spiral and suddenly I have the whole character, dynamic, backstory, lore, and 50 unnecessary details planned LMAO. So I’d say most of my bots start from one tiny idea that I just can’t leave alone. 💀

Thank you for asking 🩷
