Fork? Meet socket. (Under Construction: Crossover-friendly Mutant OC)

[fork-meet-socket-blog]

What kind of trouble did you end up in?

hold on I’mma paint you a word picture

me: chilling. hanging out at an empty warehouse with some of my other pals. eating a bag of hot cheetos. got my headphones on n I’m rockin out to some Patient Zero, y’know, like ya do. some of ‘em are watching stuff on a laptop, a couple are playing cards or takin a nap. havin a nice quiet sunday.

and then OUT OF NOWHERE for NO REASON the sentinel drones come bustin through the glass like SKREEEE WE’RE EVIL ROBOTS HERE TO ARREST YOU

pic for context (its not mine but you can just look ‘em up online, loads of ppl snap pics on their phones)

and they start taking us down!!! we scattered and i think some of my friends got away but I was all like “psh you’re made of metal YOU FOOLS” and I was doing my zaps but they sent in MORE of them and then these assholes hit me with a TRANQ.  A TRANQ. like I’m a rhino on the serengeti! bitch!! so yours truly goes down hard and wakes up in an insulated cell because they weren’t born yesterday. send in this dude in a fuckin suit to interview me all hard like “WHERE WERE YOU ON THIS DATE” and slappin blurry security footage on the table in front of me. and they got nothing on me except me resistin the sentinel drones because I’m not a CRIMINAL, they just wanna take us down ‘cuz they’re obsessed with making us the bad guys, but this goes on for three months. they made me eat these dusty nutribars and water and nothing else. for THREE MONTHS. god I want a bag of hot cheetos but nvm. 

so finally they cut me loose because its my first time in the system but I was unregistered, so they cuffed me with a big ol’ tracking bracelet before giving me the boot.

and now I’mma get rid of this unwanted accessory so I can go find my friends again without it being another big sentinel services raid.

your thing,   your             gimmick?

i hate to break it to you but scissors are a dollar at the dollar store.   if you can’t afford a one dollar pair of scissors from the one dollar store then your credit must be.  .  .   awfully bad.   that is usually a red flag.

and as  relieved i am to hear you aren’t planning on taking over the galaxy by utilizing your lightning powers,   i am starting to wonder if you’ve been taking over —- ly much of.  .  .   what is the term?   galaxy dust?   that’s the word they use for drugs in space,   correct?

you ever seen breaking bad?   chemistry teacher turns meth dealer,  chained to the heater,   burns through his restrains with a spark from two electrical wires.   shouldn’t you be.  .  .    able to burn through your restraints?   with those power you have,   i mean?   no matter their thickness?

guess you could call it that? but that makes it sounds like I’m a 90s car salesman or something. “come on down to volt’s auto shop! i’ll jump your engine free of charge!”

if you think scissors from a dollar store are gonna cut this primo military grade plastic,  I wanna know what dollar store you’re shopping at. this needs like... at least home depot wire cutter level. 

HEY DON’T BE FREAKIN RUDE I don’t DO drugs!! you don’t believe in my zappy zaps, that’s on YOU, this ain’t the FORCE where it needs the power of your belief to make it go. you’re a doubting han solo and half as cool, that’s what you are. but yeah obviously I’ve seen breaking bad and obviously zapping them off was the first thing I tried! not everything’s like you see on tv, he probAbly had access to more juice than I can do on my own, he had... live... wires...

o^o

hahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I’M A SPACE CADET ALRIGHT holy SHIT!! thank you, doubting solo, for reminding me of the big old power grid literally every city is hooked into 8) 8) 8)

@fork-meet-socket

that’s an interesting url you have there, is there a story behind it ?

[fork-meet-socket-blog]

oh thank you!! it’s my own little joke for myself because I’m really good with electricity. SHOCKING you might say ahahahah

also I electrocuted tf out of myself when I first started shooting lightning and I didn’t even have to jam a fork in a socket to do it

basically I like my own zap jokes

does your url have a special meaning or story too?

[fork-meet-socket-blog]

@descarted 

seems like we have an experienced entrepreneur at our hands.   now if you could just utilize your street magic to escape your predicament i’d be inclined to ask about your weekly revenue.   since you can’t,   i won’t.   have you tried scissors?

what’s at your disposal and where are you?  any other                   friends available than the one who is not?

and           i’ve very intentionally missed some parts of your last message.   what in god’s name is a zappy-zap?

look I never claimed to be houdini. sleight of hand != escape artist. I wish.

and ofc scissors would be good to try but I don’t have any handy and also no money to buy them. and if yours truly gets caught pullin a little five finger discount they are putting me RIGHT back in!! and I don’t really have many friends of the normal variety. the others might get in trouble if I’m followed to ‘em.

hahahaha my zappy zaps are my thing. y’know, my power.  the whole reason I’m in this mess!! you ever see Star Wars? you know like the emperor, right? wrinkly dude - that’s not me - but the lightning he shoots outta his fingertips?? THAT’S my zappy zaps! except not evil. that’s important. I don’t play that way. 

that’s why they put the really thick plastic one on me, so I couldn’t fry it like I fried their sentinel-bots.

oh my godddd I’m NOT a dangerous criminal!! like the worst thing I ever did was shoplift!! everything else was just street magic and using my electric zaps for entertainment and not hurting anybody

look. yes. I did damage a few of their sentinels which technically counts as resisting arrest but if they weren’t trying to arrest me and some other ppl for the crime of having the x-gene, this wouldn’t have happened! and they locked me up and then let me go again with a tracking bracelet because they’re probably hoping I’ll lead them to my other friends

and i’m NOT gonna do that just for them to get bagged n tagged like this is national geographic okay? so this bracelet has got to go

from what I’m aware of,  street magicians usually are criminials.

that’s quite.  .   .     well,    i suppose,   at least,   you don’t seem to be hiding anything.    i’ll get back to the details later because I can tell you seem distressed.

                 back to the details.       the other ones.       that kind of bracelet are we talking about?   the electronic sort?   cable ties?                        handcuffs?

[fork-meet-socket-blog]

hey! nobody ever lost money to me that they didn’t pony up willingly! everybody knows you pay for the show and not to win any bets you might make. that’s just common sense. and with the power I’m packing, you bet it’s some grade-A entertainment. I even built a fake hammer of thor for my shows and people try n pick it up like they’re a new age arthur looking to pull the sword out of the stone and they have FUN okay?

anyway. tangent. uh. thanks.

yeah it’s electronic. it’s a combo radio-gps thing. which normally wouldn’t be a problem for me but they know I’ve got the zappy-zaps and fitted me with one entirely made out of plastic. the band is a lot like a ziptie, only tons wider and a tiny bit thicker. I can kinda wiggle something thin and flat into it with the little bit of space between my skin and the band if it’s braced on a table.

i mean MAYBE in theory but it’s not their FAULT and if they catch up when they realize my friend is gone, they’re in for some serious black box shit. again! and the past three months were plenty of that!!!

did you try telling that the officer who put you on a leash?   

it sounds like you.  .  .    have a story in store for me.   and i’d like to hear it.   especially before i get involved with a                  dangerous criminal.

ALL THESE VIDEOS INVOLVE TWO HANDS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[fork-meet-socket-blog]

@descarted  Now this sounds like your...  friend had a run in with the law. Or am I mistaken?

i mean MAYBE

in theory

but it’s not their FAULT and if they catch up when they realize my friend is gone, they’re in for some serious black box shit. again! and the past three months were plenty of that!!!

[fork-meet-socket-blog]

HEY! real talk real questions for a friend. does anybody know how to break really tough plastic bracelets?? like the kind one might use to accessorize in a detention cell or they might use to track you. for fun. 

normally I have a friend who could chew it off but idk where she is and my teeth don’t work that way guys!!

Name ten things you wanna do before you die and then go do them Name ten places you really wanna be before you die and then go to them Name ten books you wanna read before you die and then go read them Name ten songs you wanna hear again before you die, get all your friends together and scream them

Because right now all you have is time, time, time, yeah but someday that time will run out that’s the only thing you can be absolutely certain about

((So… I just wanted to do some pictures that would work as part of a “Marvel Handbook” thing and would work with the movieverse X-Men uniforms for Maulie and Volt/ @fork-meet-socket .  Not so much the ones from the end of Days of Future Past because those were Actual Superhero Costumes, which I am down with, but… I’m getting off-topic.))

[violence-girl-exclamationpo-blog]

((A little “before and after”, even though the ‘after’ is definitely gonna get a bit of a zoom-out showing off the non-X-Men-ish costumes I’ve slapped together, but this is Volt ( @fork-meet-socket ) and Maulie going from “What special powers do you have to help fight the insanity?” to “Let’s use our special powers (and also a bat for one of us) to fight this insanity!”

Realizing I need to do something to make the “before” versions look a little grubbier ‘cuz, hey, that’s what happens when you don’t have regular or easy access to showering or laundry facilities.

My ability to make likenesses of people is not what it could be, so apologies if Volt looks a bit off-model.  Also, I couldn’t remember which arm is supposed to have gone missing at some future point so: cyborg arm and I hope it’s the right side.

Also, still working on how to represent Maulie’s mouth without just having it hang open all the time, but dangit, it works pretty well.))
