All my Convictneer & Captvictneer (yes I'm calling them this, fight me) sketches as of right now, there will be more but yeah. I think I really like these three idiots together guys

May or may not try to finish some of these digitally, MAYBE, I DON'T KNOW

[reaperdrawsart]

now im imagining simon playing the scary guard dog role for engie and captain 😭😭 also if you think about it, this trio is probably the most frightening display of the indomitable human spirit because the three of them just. never give up. they have unhinged levels of determination. theyre literally the only ones that can match each others freak HAHAHAHAHAHSHAHAH

-HAHA YESSS I LOVE THIS

-they definitely match each other's freak oml, all of them don't know when to quit and never give up. I imagine if one of them was mad at the other, even for something stupid, they would totally try to have some way to settle the argument but it lasts forever because neither want to give up so they just keep going until it's settled by the third party

- And and I had this thought the other night because of a post I saw, something about Simon being a veteran like German shepherd and Engie a golden retriever, to add to that: I hc that Simon is like a guard dog kinda of person and doesn't want anyone to hurt like he did despite his anger; Engie is 100% like that sunshine but still traumatized person, he likes to believe there's a positive side to things because when things keep going wrong you hope for the best, hes the one that's tries to cheer up the others with his shenanigans and positive "we got this guys!" attitude.

- In my own captvictneer with my captainsona, I like to think of him as the cat of the group. Hes not very close with anyone else because of trust issues with other egos and just experience but he trusts Engie and Simon after a while and it's sorta like when cats have their favorite person and are affectionate and soft around them but can be weary around others at first. And he reminds me of my cat sooo yeah lol

you cant just tell us you have so many hcs of james and engie AND NOT tell us hello?????? go yap king im sat. add simon to the mix as well bc hes a delight

- *cracks knuckles* well this is gonna be a long one so I got lock in because I have much to say about these two cmmzke so buckle in and sit tight folks

James and Engie hcs:

- James isn't very talkative, especially when first arriving on the Invincible II and also tends to space out (no pun intended) when remembering something of his past. This is because of his past is very all over and his paradox situation, anyways, Engie starts to take notice when this stuff happens and tries to gently snap James back to make sure hes okay (bc sometimes it gets bad for James and he's physically in pain when he has flashbacks of memories)

- if you've seen my recent art of Engie and James, they have pins that represent each other. Engie has a blue star pin for James (and a green arrow for Simon too), and James has a blue and orange heart thats in their colors (which are complimentary colors)

-Engie really likes to try to impress James, going out of his way to find his captain and show him what good work he's done, I like to think Engie is a sucker for some good praise especially the "this is why you're my favorite engineer" type of praise, hes also not immune to the good ol' 'good boy' & 'thats a good engineer'. I like to tho Engie gets drove nuts whenever James does this to him because for the longest time between them they danced around each other and feelings so when James did this Engie would be up that night thinking about it while he works on the ship when he can't sleep

- Engie is definitely the talker in the relationship, yaptron at his finest, and most of the time it's about the ship and the ins and outs of how it works, especially if he's in the current moment of fixing it. And James? He has no idea what Mark is saying half the time, he just talks so fast and with such passion that James tends to get lost in it as he listens and watches Engie work. That is until Engie asks for a tool and James has no idea what he asked for so he starts scrambling to get one and it almost always ends up being the wrong one. "Hey, invincible to Cap, you paying attention?"

-James has a necklace Engie gave him that's a north star, James never takes it off (unless under extreme circumstances). He also uses it as a fidget, shifting and moving the charm in his fingers if he is deep in thought or nervous and without fail Engie notices it and has a sense of pride that something he have his captain is that important to him. This is also what makes James give Engie the star pin so Engie has a piece of himself with Engie

-God they are absolutely soft and hopeless with each other, especially after the warp core incident is solved. Engie constantly making sure James doesn't overwork him once they find a new planet to inhabit with the colonists, he always has to convince James to eat something and sleep but he found that James will do all of it if he's with him so they spend a lot of quality time together making sure the other is taking care of themselves. Plus they get more affectionate with physical touch, since I hc that neither are the biggest fans of it at first until they start to grow into it with each other; a few shoulder pats, a hair ruffle there and playful punches here and it starts to become more like James leaning over Engie's shoulder to see what he's doing, sometimes resting his head on Engie's just to calm himself down.

-They also love to banter, but eventually going back and forth bantering turns into them flirting before they stop when they realize they got face to face up close, which leads to both pulling back and looking away red faced and trying to change the subject (I like to think Celci has walked in on this and just turned around and left because she wasn't gonna deal with that 😭)

-Engie likes to trace and kiss at James scars, always telling him he's handsome and /or beautiful with them since James tends to have a hard time with his scars being tied heavily to his past and his first 'death'. Engie on the other hand loves them and likes to feel the imperfections of each individual scar, asking James how he got each one no matter if he's heard the stories before because it's something that gets James to talk about himself and open up and engie loves that.

-addition to that, Engie struggles to stop calling James by his name once James was comfortable enough open up about what he could remember about his past to share it with Engie. Hes just so excited and happy to know James's name and just loves the way it sounds rolling off his tongue, this makes for Engie sometimes stumbling over his words to correct himself and call James 'captain'. James doesn't mind and actually finds the whole ordeal invincibly adorable

-"and I would do it all over again if it meant I'll end up back here, with you Mark.."

-James tends to find Engie working on the ship and even the base when they eventually settle on a planet to call home at late hours, sometimes with Engie having fell asleep which James takes upon himself to pick Engie up and take him to his room. James would try to make sure he doesn't wake up Engie because he knows he needs the rest, but occasionally Engie wakes up anyways and his voices is sleepy and confused while James is trying to guide him down to the bed to go back to sleep. Engie would be tiredly rambling about how happy he is to see James especially if they have both been really busy and couldn't see each other much with work

Hc w/ Simon:

-Engie listens well to when James gives him orders, and he tends to follow James around like a lost puppy when James doesn't give him anything to work on. I like to think Engie takes pride in his job and he wants to do good, trying fix everything and solve whatever problem to prove himself to be worthy of being the captain's head engineer, no one else's but the captain's. This is also stemmed off of him like to hear that he did a job well done by James. After the warp core incident, the only gets more extent because Engie feels he has to earn James trust in him back and he feels the need to show and prove that he is sorry and hes good enough, even if James doesn't blame him for what happened or forgives him, Engie will still apologize in quiet murmurs and look at James with those soft brown puppy eyes while they are alone together

- James and Simon like to mess with Engie since they are both taller than him, they like to slightly lift him up when they hug him and do that little swing side to side bc it drives Engie nuts and he's always trying to squirm out of the hold. They both also like to just pick Engie up when he's too busy doing something and not listening to them but they need him for something, he tries to fight it but only because he doesn't want to admit he likes when both James and Simon do that

- Simon and James like to have quiet hangouts, just enjoying each other's presence without having to speak out, this is sometimes interrupted by Engie running in to tell them something in a quick ramble, but they both just laugh and gesture for Engie to join them. Engie doesn't get the memo it's a quiet time so he spends the whole time talking about all sorts of topics and facts he knows while Simon and James listen to him

-Simon is taken off guard the first time James and Engie are being sweet to him, not use to the gentle care they are giving him that he gets frustrated with both of them and tries to push them away but he eventually starts to get use to their genuine want to help and care for him and he starts to enjoy it and they become people he finds safety and comfort in

-James is sort of possessive with Engie, he is his head engineer and they have gone through so much together so of course he's a bit possessive with Engie. Bc of this, James was a bit iffy on the idea of Simon being their third at first, especially since its just been him and Engie for a while before they met Simon. But seeing how Engie is with Simon, he eases up slightly to the idea but likes to do subtle things to make sure Engie knows he was there first even if he doesn't mind Simon being their third now

-I have like so many more but like my goofed up brain has them all over. But yeah, these are some of my hcs among many more that I just need to figure out how put into words lmao and on top of this I have so many songs in my captainsona playlist that I like to imagine are about them 😭 like they plague me I love them I could die

[reaperdrawsart]

i cant stop thinking about your capvictneer. do they cuddle do the boys sleep together in a pile ? i need them to sleep in a pile. also maybe with chica. pls they deserve this…

-UGH YES they absolutely cuddle all together, especially when one of them finds the other overworked and stressed. I like to think Engie and Simon tend to notice when James starts to get slower and less active bc he was running around back and forth trying to do everything as his job as captain. And ofc they don't like it so when they see how James is about to fall asleep standing while Engie is informing him on the mechanic, they guide James to his captain quarters with Engie running off to get James something warm to drink as Simon helps James get comfortable and before long they are all cuddling together with James absolutely passed out asleep in the middle snoring. Simon and Engie would joke lightheartedly about how fast that happened but then both share their concerns before getting a bit more comfortable and joining James in sleeping

-this also happens when Engie overworks himself too, trying to get everything done to impress both Simon and James; bc I like to think he feels like he always needs to prove himself to be a good engineer, a good friend, a good boyfriend, ect. Even if he already is, after the warp core incident and seeing how it affected James, it made him feel guilty and insecure about what he does and if its truly right

-YES yesss I might have to draw this after my current pieces, we'll see if I can lock in and pull it off lol

[reaperdrawsart]

capvictneer but its the angst of simon seeing the bond captain and engineer already have with one another and thinking "shit. how could i ever compare to that. theyre literal cosmic soulmates. fuck."

even worse if you consider simon an alternate universe engie and engie is literally him but with less baggage. oof.

-UGH THE ANGST NCKDNSSK YES

But YES, absolutely love this kinda of hc. Especially since they both probably end up meeting Simon later into the warp core situation so they are already pretty close by then trying to save each other across the multiverse, and Simon is the new addition. He doesn't know their inside jokes or share their experiences and memories that the captain and Engie bond over, nothing.

But despite how close Engie and the captain may be, I like to think the captain takes notice, not only of Simon feeling sort of out of place but also Engie taking interest in Simon too. They would be the one to help rescue Simon and let him on the Invincible II, but it will mostly be Engie to be the one to bring up the idea of Simon joining their relationship (I like to think the captain knew it would happen and that's why they did what they did, for Engie)

-But yes yes yes captvictneer angst RAHH XJSNS ily for this ask and hey I might even draw this idea... Who knows :)

[reaperdrawsart]

-Just thinking about this after I just woke up bc they rot my brain

Headcanon: for my take on Captvictneer, Engie was the one who brought up the idea of all three of them together (him, Simon, and James) and the way I imagine it is that Engie and James are romantical, Engie and Simon are also romantical or at least whatever they seem to have going on, but James and Simon are platonic with each other. So James doesn't mind sharing Engie with Simon, in fact they bond of their shared enjoyment whenever Engie is around and they also bond over their traumas and such.

Simon and James are like those two friends that are just really close besties, platonic with each and such and you swear they are dating but nah, they both got a partner, they are just that close.

I like to think Engie had a thing for James first before he had ended up in the SM-13 similar to how James did, since he was trying to find the warp core through one of the doors. But he managed to thrown into Simon's submarine, which after some time (I would imagine however long it takes to get Simon out and to the invincible II and clean up Simon while waiting for James to come back) he develops feelings for Simon too (I hc Engie as a hopeless romantic type, he really loves falling for people he so desperately wants to help and take care of, much like Simon and James who are both very broken characters)

Of course Engie doesn't really know what to do with the fact he likes both these guys, and actually has a hard time talking to them about it, that is until James and Simon show him that they are chill with each other and actually know each other (Simon would know James from their previous meeting when James got stuck in the SM- 13 first before Engie)

-So yeah, Engie x Simon and Engie x James are where the gay feels at and are romantical in my interpretation, but Simon x James, they just vibing and at most do some physical touch but they are platonic. Hences the vibe: "this is my boyfriend, and this his boyfriend"

-this is also so long and I didn't mean to yap about captvictneer that much 😭 I swear it all makes sense in my head
