Tova:
That look has been around since Annie Hall, at least, off the top of my head. I'm sure someone could give me an earlier example.
Inconsequential:
LOL, I love this. Noogies for the nearly-omnipotent being because they're a lonely nerd.
Roko quit her job on principle, and much that defines Spookybot is principle (what they choose to do and not do with their power), so I can see where they'd want to get to know Roko better.
And Bubbles, for that matter. Bubbles is rather powerful in her own way and is also highly principled. But SB already explained they can't really be friends with Bubbles 'cos that would be weird. Makes sense; doctors usually don't make friends with their patients or treat their friends.
Speaking as a squishy organic with a repeatedly damaged chassis containing lots of metal parts (nothing robotic yet), I can confidently say that it takes a lot of time and lots of practice to re-integrate with a damaged body. Even if you recover full or nearly full function, things never feel quite... right. You just have to live with it.
So I kinda get Roko's dilemma. Although at the same time, I have to admit I'd be a little jealous of someone who could undergo massive damage and wake up later that day not just with full function, but with upgrades.
I wonder what other upgrades Roko has besides detailed ears, a fresh set of nipples, and a butt emblem. Lemon mentioned "minor sensorium upgrades", so maybe she can smell better or see more shades of purple or something.

Giving me "noogies" the first time would elicit a firm, no-nonsense "please don't. Ever."
The second time, that person is not my friend. My friends don't attempt that. It's bullying.
Actually, none of my friends have ever made the first attempt. Friends don't need to demonstrate physical dominance over each other.
A small perverse otter:

And that haunts me.

I can't speak to that, but if you start talking about Spookybot's roles in this story, please remember that a bun is the lowest form of wheat.
