You can pick up any weapon, but are you willing to kill or to forge with it?
Cynessa vs. Uzi in their final fight, inspired by this little piece of musical genius I found yesterday. I'd kill to get a studio version of the cover, but damn, this also works.
Some Furry!AU stuff (like Uzi, Lizzy & Cyn hitting the rave LMAO), new character designs for my MD AUs, Yeva & Nori and Jessa Angst (what else? teehee)
i am a simple lesbian i see two women who canonically would tear each other apart at sight and violently clash them together in a queer cocktail-
after seeing the Uzi x Cyn sketches from @thatbugkidd my brain didn't let me finish these sketches without making it fruity ;_;
Cyn's a chimera post-AS timeline! :3c Fused with several animals she's barely the civet cat she used to be - but she now has people who'll help her adjust to being nothing and everything at the same time (augh my favourite trope)
finished one of two commissions today so I spent my evening doodling some sketches of furry AU stuff teehee
(okay the lower two sketches are from a few weeks ago & I just drew that Cyn sketch this evening but- shhhh)
featuring @thatbugkidd s Rat Uzi >:]] I just had to draw Bat & Rat Uzi together because I love how different they are from each other in our AUs dkjsldk but they're still two girlypops
Finally! The designs for the main trio for the furry/creature!AU is ready... OTL
only took me like a month to complete and I still have to design clothes for N & V, but... that'll be done another day when I dont have a raging headache LMAO
more below the cut!
UZI - Theme; "Dangerous Stranger"
Dwarf bat, is slightly smaller than most of her peers - got her heigh from her dad (and not from her mother, obviously LOL)
VERY fluffy neck area, which puffs out when she's angry or embarassed. It happens alot especially during her earlier arc, since she's not really used to be around people.
Has a dormant/inactive strain of the rabies-like virus the Solver belongs to, however, despite its dormant status it does affect her personality and behaviour slightly! She's way more unhinged than OG Uzi, especially in her post-arc.
LOVES raves/rave music. Differently from OG Uzi she's less of an emo/goth personality and more of a 2000s raver girlie (which is evident in her theme lol)
Loud mouthed and WILL voice her opinion, lol
Her mom is a touchy subject and she WILL get angry when you push her about it too much
In the beginning of her story Uzi's fairly similar to OG Uzi - snarky, pushes people away and hates it when they care for her well-being, assuming that people just fake being nice in order to get something from her. She's not particularily insecure, but rather "too" self-preserving and just doesn't really want to get hurt in the long run. Losing her mother has taken a toll on her mental health and being infected with the solver-strain doesn't really help
Later on, she opens up and allows her true personality to finally shine through... which is slightly unhinged. Actually, very unhinged, but in an... kind of adorable way :']]
She gets way more self-confident and allows people to approach her, which also helps when Cyn moves in with them
N(ATHAN)
Harpy Eagle, fairly tall (7'2" / 2,20m) and muscular for his species. Strong! Has a very prominent keel (sternum) visible on his chest
His hair behind the cap are more like feathers and correspond to his emotions! Can floof up or lay flat
Fourth toe on his feet is very moveable and can be turned so it's infront with his other three primary toes - he can grab stuff fairly easily thanks to his anatomy & carry it with ease!
Similar to Vera, he was "born" in the lab and cloned from another harpy eagles DNA (he doesn't know who though)
A bit naive and sometimes too good-hearted, trusts easily but if his trust is broken through actual malice he won't hold back if need be
Very good fighter, especially in the air
Carrier, can travel fairly fast by flight!
Ends up with Thad later on in the story, teehee >:]]c
V(ERA)
Egyptian Mau x Oriental Longhair, shaves alot of her longer fur for work purpose - only her tail remains with long fur, but it's fairly unkempt due to lack of time to properly care for it during the main story.
Blind in right eye due to a former work contract going wrong, uses glasses to take some load off of her left eye during work
Plantigrade, prefers to be barefoot though even if there are boots available for her to wear
Works together with Nathan for the Elliott Labratories (running errands, delivering dangerous substances/test containers/diseases etc.)
Dislikes working with Janette, the Labs secretary
Heavily into oldschool rock and punk music (fights with Uzi alot about music lol)
Knows how to drive cars! :]
Was "born" in the labs (artifical creation from the cells of two cats)
Infected with the same inactive/dormant Rabies-Strand that Nori, Yeva and Uzi carry - which she is aware off. She also knows that Nathan has it, but hasn't told him yet due to being afraid of it affecting him too harshly.
don't be calling her "monster" Uzi, she's going to be your crush soon
whenever the Solver mutates Cyn's body it grotesquely re-shapes it in a matter that appears to outsiders like it's shifting itself, becoming liquid while doing so.
It hurts as much as it looks so Cyn is never thrilled for the Solver to take a new turn, adapting her body to a new part - it copies people and animals, in the scene shown it tries to emulate Uzi's facial appearance for sharper teeth & a longer snout, as the OG Cyn (a civet cat) has a fairly short muzzle and duller teeth.
