Canon
Before the events series, they used to be Worker Drones who worked at Elliot Manor for human girl’s family name Tessa alongside J and Cyn. V also used to be much kinder and shy compared to her current murderous personality.

PILOT
After meeting Uzi, N tells her about his Disassembly Drones teammates, he first mentions V. In a flashback, V is killing a Worker Drone as N watches behind her. He was about to talk to V, but she ask who he was and leaves flying off, the flashback then ends. N thinks they have a lot of mutual respect for each other and mentions that he secretly has a crush on V, but tells Uzi not to tell her.

When N manages to get into the Worker Drones hidden bunker, he says to Uzi he isn’t letting her shoot V with her railgun. After N’s fight with Uzi, V praises him for being able to get past through the doors of the bunker when she wasn’t able too.

Later, when Uzi and N decided to team up, Uzi asks who N wanted to fight. He says J, but instead Uzi targets her, making N left with V. He tries to blast her with his gatling gun arm, instead little hearts come out. N and V then get into a sword fight in the air. N apologizes to V what he was about to do and licks V’s sword, which she reacts with disgust. N then kicks her to the ground knocking her out for a bit.

After the battle, N carries V by the head, and flies off to through the bunker’s roof.

Hearthbeat
The episode starts with a flashback, N is a butler and V is a maid. N is carrying a stack of glass but accidentally bumps into V, dropping N’s glass. They were about to clean up the mess, but their hands get close to each other making a spark between them. They both blush, but the moment was cut short as J kicks N to the ground. Then, the flashback ends.

In the end of the episode, V says she usually hates N’s personality, but seeing him being sad makes her dislike him more. N doesn’t respond, making her soften to him a bit. She notices her chains in the beginning of the episode have been broken, but instead of leaving N, she chooses to stay in position.

The Promening
N and V are at the pod, N is hesitating if he should wear a suit from skeleton remains he got. V tells N about her plan to kill everyone at the prom dance by using Uzi to invite them in, but N refuses to help her. He then starts questioning about their pasts, V pushes him away, telling him to promise her to try not pry into that stuff too much and she’ll promise him that if he frees her, she’ll only kill what they need to survive. He thinks about it, he tells her if she is hiding something, they can try to figure it out together, but V cuts him off by chopping his head. She then flies off with a red dress which was next to N’s suit.

N regenerates and realizes what happened. He goes out to go after V. At Prom, N sees V is getting attacked by Doll. Doll throws a ceiling fan at V. N jumps in blocking the attack. Doll throws 2 more ceiling fans towards them, N and V get hit and are knocked out. As Uzi and Doll are fighting, V's right arm is pulling itself on the ground. N picks it up but V grabs it from him using her mouth.

After Doll was killed by V, N points at her thinking she's hiding something and is being overdramatic about it. She punches him in the side of his arm saying he sucks. Uzi shouts "You!", making N and V point at each other.

N and V alongside Uzi, enter Doll's room. As they look around, V says that the robotic remains don't taste that good. N says to V that she kind of sucks, which she responds by giggling saying she isn't doing ok.

Cabin Fever
N and V are wearing camp uniforms together as they're gonna supervise the campers that are Uzi's classmates. After N starts counting the students up to two, none of them continue. V then shoots one of the them, making all the students continue counting after that. V also mentions to the students that N is a pilot. As Uzi is exploring an abandoned building, N and V go out canoeing with the campers.

N and V later witnesses Uzi's AbsoluteSolver powers. V is prepared to kill Uzi, but N tries to stop her. He tells her that he has no idea what they're supposed to do because she won't tell him, stopping her. N tells V to look after the campers and leaves.

In the forest, Uzi pins V to the ground and she uses V's tail to stab N's hand. He removes V's tail from his hand and she complains to N of him always taking Uzi's side.

Home
The episode takes place in N’s memory. V is standing on top of the basement door that N and Uzi need to go to. So N moves her away. When N retrieves the basement key from J, V fights him trying to get the key. N and Uzi enter the basement, he asks Uzi if V is ok in the future (present time), which she responds with a disappointed yes.

N is locked sitting on a chair. Eldritch Cyn is struggling to pick up the tool she needed so she requests V to pick it up for her. V also struggles to pick it up, so N grabs her glasses which was in his suit using his mouth and places it on her face. V successfully picks up the tool, and mentions a fact about Golden Retrievers which N continues. Eldritch Cyn holds V up to the ceiling, calling N and V’s moment gross. Uzi was able to get control over Eldritch Cyn and drops V. N helps her get up and they smile at eachother.

Back in the real world, N and V wake up, they look at each other and V blushes.
