#alpha team

[mxnixcxx]

Just some short snippets of conversations between Merc!Reader and pre Edonia Alpha Team.

My first time doing this. It helps me get the thoughts out without actually making up a whole story in the process.

It's Piers Nivans/Merc!Reader, ofc. Have fun!

————————————————————————

Chris: "I hope you won't sneak out on us again?"

You: "Okay, first of all, I didn't sneak out on you guys—"

Piers: "Right, you full on sprinted."

————————————————————————

Piers talking to Chris: "[Your Name]'s still an insurgent and dangerous. We can't trust [him/her/them]."

Chris glancing over his shoulder to look at you:

You currently catching Finn after convincing him to do a trust fall from one of the Rovers:

Chris turning back to Piers: "Dangerous is debatable."

————————————————————————

Andy: "Have you seen the way the Insurgent looks at Nivans?"

Carl: "Real romantic."

Ben: "Have you seen the way Nivans chased [her/him/them] out of the recon tent?"

————————————————————————

(The incident in question)

You: "Jeez, if you put this much focus into maintaining your rifle, I bet nothing around you ever leaves unsatisfied, sugar."

Piers, refusing to even look at you: "Do you always have to be this annoying?"

You, grinning like you've won the lottery: "Honey, I'm charming. But continue clutching that cleaning rod so tightly and people might start to get ideas."

(Cue you running out of the tent with Piers stopping short of the rolled up flaps, cleaning rod in hand and a mean glare watching after you.)

————————————————————————

Finn talking about Chris: "Is he always this awesome?"

Piers, speechless for a solid second before he shook his head and turned to walk away:

You, having eavesdropped and falling into step with him: "Come on, you think the same."

Piers barely glancing at you: "Shut up, Insurgent."

You, practically grinning at his attempt to hide away his own smile:

————————————————————————

Finn to Piers: "To fight Bioterrorism, Sir!"

Piers: "I know what we're here for, Rookie."

You, clutching Ben's tactical vest and roughly dragging him closer: "He'll catch a stray one of these days."

————————————————————————

You: "Why are you built like a double door fridge?"

Chris, looking up from his report comically slow to meet your gaze: "What is that supposed to mean?"

You, sitting down on the edge of the table: "You're built like Arnold Schwarznegger in his twenties. What's up with that? Got someone to impress?"

————————————————————————

You: "Well, aren't you just a tall glass of water?"

Piers: "You just got shot! Stop with the flirting?!"

You, pausing for a second to look at the bullet wound in your chest: "Oh shit, you're right."

You, again after a minute of tense silence: "Stuff your finger in there, might just moan in return. Pain and pleasure are pretty close on the scale."

Piers, exasperated and beyond done with the operation: "Jesus Christ, [Your Name]!"

————————————————————————

Chris: "Don't distract him from his duties. We need him on point."

You: "I could flash him with everything I got and he'd be more interested in a B.O.W. anyway."

Piers: "Please, don't ever do that."

————————————————————————

Finn: "Explosives are set and ready to detonate! Just say the word, Captain!"

You, piping in before Chris could actually answer: "Alright, blow your load then, Rookie!"

————————————————————————

You, dismantling a gun with ease while keeping intense eye contact with Piers across the table:

Piers, refusing to back down and keeping his gaze locked on yours:

Carl whispering to Andy: "Either they're going to kiss or slit each other's throats."

Ben just piping in: "The sexual tension is turning radioactive at this point."

————————————————————————

You, having taken down a crowd of J'avo and continuing on your way: (over the comms) "Still my guardian angel, babydoll?"

Piers, disgruntled and glaring at your form through the scope of his sniper rifle: "I told you to stop calling me that."

You: "And miss that cute little vein popping out of your neck whenever you get like this? Not a chance. Babydoll."

Piers, grumbling and resisting the urge to fire a round right into the back of your head: "One of these days..."

————————————————————————

Finn, turning to you as the Team finished up an operation: "You should come with us back to HQ sometimes."

You: "I'd love to, doll, but your superiors would have my head."

Carl: "You mean Lieutenant Nivans specifically?"

You: "LT Nivans specifically."

————————————————————————

You, catching a glimpse of Piers' dogtags through his shirt: "You should let me wear them."

Piers, looking at you before he watched your finger point at the solid steel necklace beneath the fabric: "Why?"

You: "You'll have a reason to come back then."

————————————————————————

Ben to Andy, Carl and Finn: "Get yourself someone who looks at you like [Your Name] looks at Piers."

You, simply staring at Piers with the most heart-eyes looking heart eyes possible:

————————————————————————

Special cameo!!

Jake: "Man, I'm so hungry I could literally eat a [Your Name] [Your Last Name]."

Piers, turning comically slow to look at Jake: "What did you just say?"

You: "LT's the only one who can eat me."

————————————————————————

You: "Oh, bite me, Muller."

Jake, already grinning like a moron:

You: "You're a freak, I forgot."

————————————————————————

Jake: "Where's the puppy?"

You: "Where's the blonde babysitter?"

————————————————————————

Piers: "You had something with that other insurgent?"

You: "Maybe. Maybe not. Why? You jealous?"

Piers, incredulous to why you even ask that: "Not visibly, no."

————————————————————————

Jake, leaning against the frame of one of the rovers: "So you and [Your Name]?"

Piers, elbow deep in grease to work on the engine: "That's none of your business."

Jake, grinning like a cheshire cat: "Oh, there's totally something."

————————————————————————

Jake, just fishing for a reaction: "Let's be honest, I'm the better man for [Your Name]."

Piers, barely glancing at the other man: "There's a reason [he/she/they] left you."

[cryptdidnt]

made some mini hero factory mocs. technically they are supposed to be in scale with how big i think heroes are compared to humans based off the old commercials.

close ups and headcannons/design details of each under the cut

I made furno the most similar to his 1.0 form because hes like the poster child so i figures he should be close to the most basic of basic heros. I made him first and copied his frame to be edited by for the others. also look its Guy (oc) and also the size comparison.

I gave surge over the shoulder style armor as every twink should have

For breeze I leaned into her gimmick and made her more animalistic. im actually really happy with how the helmet turned out on this one. breeze has the wrong secondary color here, shes supposed to be a dark silver.

to point out the differences in age i gave all the rookies holographic hair but the veterans all have physical hair.

obviously i made bulk big, his name is bulk. hes supposed to have a pink core but the rendering didnt work and this kind of looks better anyway. is he pondering or flexing? the world may never know...

I had a lot of fun with stringer's rock and roll aesthetic. his armor is meant to look like a cropped, spiked jacket and ripped jeans. obviously he has a mohawk. i wanted there to be a more animal like one in each trio and i think that works well for stringer so he has a short tail and pointed ears. stringer changes his secondary color every half cycle. I loved his guitar gun from breakout so he has something similar here.

I made stormer shorter and stockier than the others. and yes it does bother him that furno is taller than him. he strikes me as a very practical guy so his armor has a lot more coverage than some of the others. i gave him the stereotypical soldier buzz cut with a tiny bit of spike to tie in the ice gimmick. his final neck design is different from the one i originally rendered here. bro stop mogging at the camera...

similar to how i used the hair to set apart the rookies and veterans the defining detail for the new generation heroes is that they have three armor colors rather than just two. some of their hair is physical some of it is holographic. i think these hero's physical hair would be more of a plastic material while the veterans would have metal hair.

for evo i really preferred her original personality in ordeal of fire than the basic soldierboy we got in breakout. oh yeah also she/her evo jumpscare. Her armor is meant to mimic a toga to tie back to her original sort of monk/ninja aesthetic. to go along with that she also has a staff weapon with a gun on the end. she is by far the tallest but also the skinniest. also the purple is back wahoo. couldnt decide on evo's hair color so its different in the group shot. still not really sure about it.

i made nex a tiny kitty cat and go by they/them pronouns because i can do whatever I want. to tie into their tech theme i gave them transparent parts to be reminiscent of retro transparent technology and gave them drones to command as their main weapon. nex is my favorite :3

the golden boy! i mean any pronouns, HRT really is amazing... rocka always had a bit of a knight thing going on so i leaned into that by giving them the most fuckoff enormous sword ever. the sword shoots beams of energy when swung btw. i definetly could not make a good replica of rockas helmet at this scale but i think i got the idea of it. i gave her a mane-like hairstyle to tie into her savage planet form.

all of their heads and faces underneath the helmets were based off of some drawings i made of what i thought they would look like.

Day 6

F for Forest Speyer

This was a fun one! There is not much official material of Forest so I had to do more research than usual. He looks now like a good and cool dude.

His hair screams "90s" 😆

[vrahno]

I still remember staring at the Lego Alpha Team Mission Deep Sea sets on stores shelves but I sadly never got into them, nor into any other version of the Alpha Team theme. Despite showcasing some of the design elements that are now associated with Lego's late 90s, early 2000s "dark age", I always liked how they integrated weird elements like Bionicle or Dinosaur pieces. And it's always nice to get never used Bionicle parts in this day and age.

Sea creature-based Lego submarines or deep sea robots/cyborgs are also very interesting to me, probably mostly due to my love of the 90s Aquasharks line. Anyway, it's nice to finally have at least one Alpha Team set, and this one won't even be difficult to store because it can just stand on its tentacles and take up less shelf space.

Okay question for Hero Factory fans-

I'm thinking of making fanon armor for Alpha team inspired by Mythology Creatures

So far I have decided on for heroes:

Furno - Phoenix

Surge - Thunderbird

Bulk - Werewolf

Nex - Kitsune/Nine Tailed Fox Yo-Kai

Rocka - Dragon

Breez - Forest Nymph

Evo - Merman (think of Rafayel from Love and Deepspace of his new Myth event)

I need suggestions for the others tho

It was an idea for an arc in After The Blackout AU and I like it and the armor idea came to me because of that damn event of Love and Deepspace

︴ Re6

Chris Redfields bsaa alpha team own my heart ..they are dear to me ..were

︴ Piers,Finn,Marco,Jeff,Ben…..

Playing their campaign in re6 is comforting and devastating at the same time..I feel as I am at home with them like these are my guys..this is my team ..where I would choose to be 10/10 times..i would choose them over and over..

Yet losing them feels like I’m losing my children throughout it (how chris feels fr)

(Anyone else feel maternal towards them?? ..or is that just me 😭help).

If there are people who call Chris an asshole …yes he can be though I feel he has every right to ..he has/and keeps losing people,I for one would be to if I was in his shoes for only a minute with what he has to deal with..ofc he isn’t going to be a generally nice person,he is protecting his heart and you at the same time.he’s preserving anything he has left of what he can feel.. (if that makes sense).

You are on a mission and you find out who is your commander/leading this team and it’s Chris ..alright wrap it up ur doomed,you ain’t making it 😭

When my fav is piers..thanks capcom for killing off my favs as soon as I get attached to them

[itzr4v3n]

I sat hours on this shit, y'all better appreciate it /j

And some headcanon stuff

But yeah, I remade my designs for Hero Factory cast in Gacha life 2 with minor redesigns such as:

Stormer now wears a scarf as opposed to his old design, cuz this mf is always cold and due to unnamed core issues, it'll only get worse

Stringer and Bulk now have matching earrings in each other's colours! Previous Stringer had non and Bulk had a grey one

More scarring on Nex

Rocka has a lion tail. Fight me

Quadal has a prehensile tail cuz that's the best sub I could think of for his extendable arms

It's not that I don't have the old designs anymore, I just switched over to my phone for editing instead of my tablet, the designs are still on there although with VERY minor changes (e.g. proportions)

JOSEPH FROST INFO POST— ⌖☠︎

Joseph Frost also Known as ‘Frosty’ to his team mates is a member of S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team, holding the position of Omni-Man. handling helicopter upkeep, weapons upgrades, and was a firearms expert with industry contacts (sourcing prototype grenade launchers from Saco Defense for teammate Forest Speyer) and doubled as a service technician.

he could also be very casual, often with a "laid-back approach to the task at hand during field operations. " His evaluations showed this trait hindered his development as a S.T.A.R.S. member and led to some colleagues to question his behaviour in emergency situations." Despite this, he was still a valuable team member with a host of skills he utilised across the unit.”

"Joseph had a cheerful disposition and was very enthusiastic despite being quite immature for his age. His hobby was magic and his colleagues often joked that his natural curiosity would be his downfall"

“known for the trademark red bandana always tied around his head. He had a hot-blooded personality and was always on the go, ensuring he had a tendency to go crazy in dangerous situations and often carelessly threw himself into the front-line of battle.”— Resident Evil Podcast

He was buddies with Chris Redfield and Forest Speyer, hitting Raccoon City bars off-duty. He was also hated along with Chris Redfield and Forest Speyer by Brian Irons, the chief of police.

Although he was an excellent officer, there were concerns about his behavior regarding his bullying of Brad Vickers and his demeanor in emergencies due to his energetic nature.

Frost and Kenneth J. Sullivan also were the only officers equipped with a video recording unit during operations which showed Frosty’s final moments.

"On July 24th 1998, Frost and the rest of S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team were deployed to Raccoon Forest to look for their missing Bravo colleagues. Joseph went on point and discovered the corpse of Kevin Dooly still strapped into the pilot’s chair of the helicopter. Working closely with Jill Valentine, Joseph searched the surrounding area but panicked when attacked by Cerberus dogs and was viciously torn apart."
