#unfortunately this means no body mod whump for chris

[razzle-zazzle]

what if zach starts taking some of chris’s real limbs off in All in One? sort of dismembering him.

Because he’d replace them with something even better. To help improve his design so to speak.

Bonus points if he gives the chopped off limbs to Gourmand, or basically he has Gourmand do the job for him so Zach can come in after Gourmands work to work on top of it.

As juicy as this idea is, Zach never goes any further than modifying the suit, in vein with how his canon roboticizations in the show are pretty much just fancy mind-controlling outfits that can be removed, because it's a kids show.

But I'm gonna take a quick trip to headcanon city and say the easy removability is part of the design; if the animal inside is injured or dies, it can easily be swapped out for another one without scrapping the metal and wiring. And I imagine doing maintenance on just the mechanical bit alone is easier when there isn't a varmint in it.

So Zach modifies and uses the suit much like that; as a removable piece that can be easily taken off for maintenance and repair. Sure, the animal component for the modified CPSuit (Chris) would be a little harder to replace should something go wrong, but that just means giving his Zachbots small extra tasks to keep Chris alive, which isn't all that costly!

So Zach has his fancy All-in-One bot that can cover a wide variety of functions and uses, and all it takes to maintain it is keeping the living component alive and keeping the suit in good condition!
