OK AU headcanons?

(Once again, there's a fic, and here's the headcanons I'm working off of. See if you can guess which ones I use...)

-Hero!Darrell's the only bodega employee besides Gar himself who puts a ton of effort into his work -- he's got both Hero!KO's drive to become a great hero someday, as well as Villain!Darrell's drive to make his boss (and bonus father-figure) proud of him.

-He's especially desperate to finally be recognized as Employee of the Month at Gar's. However, the universe just isn't on his side, his abysmal luck sabotaging him whenever the boss is looking or keeping Gar's attention elsewhere whenever Darrell actually manages to trash a Boxbot.

-He literally hasn't taken a single day off since he was first hired! Of course, this means he frequently comes in to work sick, which is never fun for his coworkers, or the customers.

-In contrast though? Shannon will do ANYTHING not to work. She uses sick/vacation days as fast as she receives them, and even has a nasty habit of skipping out on her shifts with Raymond, leaving all their work to Darrell (since he just can't say no!) It's debatable whether she even IS a hero sometimes.

-That said, though, she's arguably the friendliest of the three to any customers that dare to approach her counter (though not by much), and knows almost all of the plaza regulars by name. She even makes sure to catch up on all the latest gossip with them while she rings them up; the fact that it's a distraction from work is just a bonus!

-She's INCREDIBLY talented at roller skating, to the point where people wonder why she works at a convenience store instead of going pro. (Because then she'd have to put in effort, that's why.)

-Raymond legitimately plays every single sport offered at Lakewood High School, and even a few outside of it, but rarely ever shows up to practice, only using it as an excuse to get off work and go to the mall with Shannon. His coaches would all kick him off the team if he wasn't naturally talented, and one of the top players even without practice.

-Raymond is EXTREMELY squeamish when it comes to blood, his own or otherwise, and will straight-up pass out at the sight of it, which is a problem when Boxbot battles get more intense. (Note: this also applies to Villain!Raymond as well!)

-He has also been following Drupe's fashion blog for years, and is desperately trying to impress/befriend her, though she keeps mistaking his advances for romantic ones and rejects them. (They're not, though, his heart secretly belongs to R.A.D.I.C.L.E.S.)

-Shannon and Darrell both have robot feet. Shannon is okay with occasionally showing hers off. Darrell, though? NEVER.

-Shannon and Darrell are still siblings (you just can't separate them), and are Wilhamena's and Bernard's kids. Darrell often comes very close to spilling that their whole family are monsters (especially since it's much more obvious with him) and that Shannon's actually a witch, but she always shuts him up.

-Raymond is the adopted son of Ofrang and Theodosia, and is a new hire at the bodega, still kind of learning the ropes from the other two. His levitation beams are not natural, but Ofrang invented some way to artificially generate them, in order to bring his son more in tune with his parents' heritage!

-The heroes do have their secret wereanimal forms, which match that one scene from Thank You For Watching the Show -- Darrell = Hamster, Shannon = Cat, Ray = Lizard. Darrell is especially self-conscious about his, being much smaller than the others and needing to use extra means to appear human/cyclops, and refuses to go to any human meetups or acknowledge his condition in any way because of this.

-The others end up bribing him with sunflower seeds to go with them.

-K-0, EN1D, and R.A.D.I.C.L.E.S. are NOT Lord Boxman's children -- he decided to use slightly different control tactics for them instead, with a bigger emphasis on forced reprogramming rather than emotional manipulation. However, K-0 will often slip up and call him "Daddy" anyway, to both parties' extreme embarrassment.

-Also, ironically, K-0 is the OLDEST of the three this time, literally built right after the Mr Logic Incident, with EN1D and R.A.D. being newer, more advanced models.

-EN1D is obsessed with ninjas in exactly the same way that Villain!Darrell is obsessed with cowboys, and dresses up as one whenever she gets the chance. She's the robot who will most often wear disguises and use stealth to try and achieve her goals, and tends to give the Bodegamen the most trouble out of the three.

-Also, EN1D glitched in the past to have a HUGE crush on some random plaza customer who happened to be nearby (Red Action), but denies still having feelings for any heroes whatsoever (she's lying).

-There are B.I.G. R.A.D.s, piloted by regular R.A.D.s.

-Not even Lord Boxman knows what the acronym stands for. He originally scribbled R.A.D.I.C.L.E.S.' name out onto a napkin while dead tired (and also a little drunk) at 3AM, and accidentally spilled coffee all over it the next morning before he could reread it.

-Fink sees K-0 as her rival, and specifically targets and torments him whenever her Boss decides to visit Boxmore, and he retaliates by pranking her back and trying to get PV's attention instead, all of which gets cranked up to maximum once the Voxmore merger happens. Even sharing a room doesn't fully convince them on each other.

-K-0 sometimes glitches into a separate, angrier personality, with a LOT more firepower...
