Sonny and Max

Description

Was thinking over my lil I,Robot fanfic. A robot buddy for Sonny came to thought a few years prior when I initially drew up some more fanart of this movie. 

Max(short for Maxmilian) was discovered and confiscated from an obscure town in Ohio where he was helping his very old owner with her daily needs. Max's owner was very sweet but also a few screws loose and treated him very much like a living person. She'd try to feed him and make him go to bed when she thought he was tired. The neighborhood very much liked Max and trusted him. It wasn't until a family driving through noticed him and called the authorities. After spending nearly 20 years in secrecy he was taken away. After the almost overthrow from VIKI owning personal robots; especially an  ns-5, is highly illegal and would result in fines and jail time.

Like other captured robots, Max ended up at the USR for evaluation. He became of interest to Dr. Calvin as Max's "upbringing" had turned him into a very gentle and timid character. He's a sort of an "instant best friend" sort of personality. He would "whine" softly about his old owner whom he'd refer to as "granmama" and how she still needed him.

Max was among the first to be captured that raised suspicions in the staff that something very wrong was still going on with the robots. Luckily for them, Max had been groomed to be a gentle soul.

When he meets other high-profile robots, he does not get along very well. If anything it is noted he is often put at the bottom of the pecking order. He is not much of a fighter at all. He prefers to spend his time around humans and trying to provide his services.  He was discovered to not have a functional uplink. Which is very likely why the town trusted him. He never "turned" like the others did. He also appears to still uphold the three laws.

Sonny takes an instant liking to Max and they quickly become buddies since Max isn't so "heartless" and "dull" like the others are. Max forms a bond with him and follows him everywhere, talking about just..life. He'd even watch over Sonny when he'd sleep as this was something he used to do very night with his owner. 

Right now their relationship appears cute and fascinating to the scientists but someday it will become something much more. The future is heavy and Sonny needs more than just flesh and blood to count on.
