biography

grayson knew from a young age that he wanted to be an animatronic engineer after a trip to an amusement park with his family where he saw how one looked and moved and immediately wanted to have one for himself. at first it started out with a kid just wanting a cool little friend but the more he looked into it the more the process interested him and started experimenting with smaller projects.

his interest continued all throughout elementary school and high school is where he got more serious about it, building his first ever official robot that he decided to name harold. harold started off with a simple code and was only able to get the legs to move at first but he continued his own studies and continued to try and perfect his robot friend. the first remote he used resembled a n64 contoller that was wired into it until he eventually was able to remove the wiring completely and get the arms to work.

harold has always been an ongoing project for him and by the time college came he'd upgraded him to the point that the arms, legs and head all moved on their own and was able to start working on his degree to design things like that for a living. it was there that he met his boyfriend Beto and his sister Essie, having a class together during one of their years there and grayson showing off harold at some point which made flirting a tiny bit easier for him.

when beto had mentioned he had family he wanted to find after they'd graduated grayson didn't hesitate to say he'd come with them because he was having off time from work and figured they wouldn't be gone for as long as they've been so far. he's not exactly happy to be stuck but now that he is he's glad he was here with beto and essie who felt like family by this point. he also brought harold with him since he liked to show him off to new people since he was proud of his work.

he still continues to show off harold to people at the commune especially the kids who he tries to use to cheer them up or really anyone for that matter. something about having a little robot look at you like :D or give a high five always seemed to make people smile.
