Deep Sea Mer-Rover Polychephaly of the MARINE Alliance & Outskirt Warrior Buzzsaw of the Skibidi Tribe Who would've thought the two would find each other more than just scientific curiosity?

Mer AU Notes
Polycephaly is apart of MARINE Alliance or the Marine Archipelago Research Institute & Nautical Exploration Alliance and pretty much the love child between the Research and Exploration Branches
He's a sea robot built to be a deep sea & merfolk rover to study said subjects hence the merfolk build he sports.
The kelp/claw disguised extension acts as self defense mechanisms, idea being that they can charge plasma for blasts or generate a similar to Polycephaly's Detaining Claws canon-wise.
Polycephaly has a state-of-the-art warp drive built for underwater pressures for easy transportation of the self and marine samples for MARINE labs.
Fish and general marine life in general tend to be hypnotized by Polycephaly's screen light funnily enough.
Other than his curious sailor's mouth, the marine life that fluttered around Polychephaly was what drew a certain Skibidi mer to him.
Buzzsaw is a member of the Skibidi Tribe, a split off branch of the more bloodthirsty Astro Tribe and is an accomplished warrior to say the least.
He's a coral reef merfolk with stronger than usual deep sea siren traits usually assigned to the front-line when it comes to battle and outskirt duty keeping away or investigating outsiders off it.
In merfolk culture, names are given to a mer when they've accomplished something of note, otherwise, they referred as their status or profession like 'fry' for young or 'sentry' for guards and the like.
Buzzsaw got his name through battle and the buzz saw weapon he uses attached to his amputated right hand that works through the brilliance of 'Old Mer Scientist's' reverse engineering and refitting.
Buzzsaw's Nautilus-Coral 'headphones' is an obligatory Full Moon (Skibidi Tribe) or Fang (Astro Tribe) Rite Gift for reaching adulthood in merfolk society.
The glasses were a novelty find of his from a recent passing cruise ship he happily wore as part of his trademark.

Hoo-wee its been a hot fuckin sec since I've drawn or posted shit. Let's just say last semester was fuckin HORRID and leave it at that.
(I also procrastinated posting this, so sorry my goobers─)
Any who─ it's Mermay! (And almost the end sorry ihgvbdw)─ and of course, I got struck with a beam of brainworms via @luciledrakkhen and ended up drawing something I usually would never do─ ship art of canon characters I have no preference for shipping.
And whether its that reason or whatever tho, I made it and I actually like how it turned out for once which is an especial surprise considering this is my first time actually drawing again in MONTHS.
Either wae, enough jabberin'! Hope you enjoy the meal for todae! Happy eats Drakk kekek!
