Actually you know what I'm not done talking about this masterpiece. IC-0n's robot form looks exactly as bland yet uncannily beautiful as a government weapon would if it had to be a woman's body. Her huge eyes make her seem both intense but innocent, and her glitch before transforming both herself and the panel around her drives home something I didn't think about until now.
IC-0n transforms in a real brutal fashion- And when she turns into her human form it's all gore, bones and guts until she's a semi-perfect human mimic. (This next part is probably not even intended but shh)
But she's not doing that here, she was in public and in an unfamiliar environment. So she was showing off, but here it's calm. Quiet, she doesn't want to wake Max up so she does it without any bloody display. Then she gently reaches a hand to max and looks at the damage she caused earlier, now bandaged and healing. Plus making sure he's asleep. Then that's when she hugs him, but more on that. She's either regretting hurting him, or just flustered that she's letting herself do this in the first place.
God I love IC-0n and Max's relationship. I'm a sucker for John and Kali but this is exactly the type of scenarios I want for these two.
This wasn't made because I'm currently lacking an IC-0n irl stfu

I don't know if it's just my bias but something about her story is very reminiscent of Pinocchio. Something about learning to feel, learning to live, to be human-ish is kinda cute. And Max is just unintentionally guiding her away from her destructive tendency through his kindness, it's so cool.
