Here are some WIPs from my Code Lyoko College AU Zine which is pretty much : Queer Polycule Solving Weird Techno Supernatural Phenomena While Attempting To Complete Their Thesis 👏✨ I hope fellow Code Lyoko fans will enjoy! There's over 15 pages so far! 😔🙏💖
I'm doing bits and I still have to build the story around them ok so come take your Ulumi crumbs
Ulrich got off his bed and approached the door since someone just slid a note under his door, he tilted his head slightly as he picked it up, it read "meet me by the gym ASAP" it wasn't signed but he assumed who it was. He was intrigued and knew he had nothing to discuss with her, but what if he wanted to?
"What does it say?" - Odd asked lying in his bed with Kiwi - "Is it from Ishiyama?"
Ulrich remained quiet now putting the piece of paper on his pocket
"You'll end up getting in trouble if Einstein finds out you're trying to romance the enemy, Stern" Odd teased
"Just don't tell him.. I won't take long. If he asks for me tell him I went for a walk" Ulrich began walking towards the door
"I got you, my lips are sealed." Odd smirked
Ulrich walked at a fast pace, trying to get to the gym as soon as he could he also tried to make sure he wasn't being followed by anyone specially Sissi, once he got there and spotted Yumi he tried to fix his hair slightly before he began walking towards her
"So... what do you want?" - Ulrich put his hands on his pockets
She grabbed him by his arm and dragged him inside the gym and closed the door checking around for anyone that could hear them before talking
"I just want to understand why won't you guys let us do our job!" - Yumi said through her teeth
"You mean harm us in anyway possible just so X.A.N.A can do whatever it pleases?" - Ulrich questioned
"I.. No! You don't get it.. We're doing this for the greater good! Franz Hopper's plans were evil and that's why he was arrested don't you get it? We could really use some help.." - Yumi explained
" Are you dense?! You sound like you were brainwashed! Can't you see X.A.N.A only wants to harm all of us- Look I don't know what X.A.N.A may have promised you but you've been lied to. Yumi you're a good fighter and I'm sure you're better than that. Why not use your skills for good?" - Ulrich asked, he sounded really genuine
Yumi looked at him for a bit, she didn't know what to say
" think about it..." - He took a step closer to her subconsciously but when they noticed how close he had gotten they started blushing
" I don't... I don't think I can do that." - Yumi finally managed to get some words out
"I've seen you fight, how come in Lyoko all you do is chase after Aelita? William isn't even skilled all he does is swing his sword hoping to hit something!" - Ulrich exclaimed causing Yumi to chuckle, he had made her laugh and was now blushing, he wished he got to see that side of her more often
His ringtone interrupted the moment, he pulled out his phone, he had a few messages that read "there's a tower activated get to the fabric ASAP"
"Please think about it, and maybe you could even sabotage William, huh?" - Ulrich said - "We could really use some help" - he added before he exited the gym quickly
I reimagine our favorite group as adults, surprise! Most of them are ready, so I can focus on commissions and finishing them before going into Miracule AU and opening communion here! Cause yaaaaaay.

Okay, here’s info to know about Odd:
Full name: Odd Della Robbia
Origin: Italian
Age: 19 years old
Height: 5’11 or 180
Sexuality: Queer
Love interest: Jeremy Belpois
Personality: Odd is still a player but deeply insecure. He knows he’s queer, and people often treat him like “an experience” rather than someone they genuinely want to be with. To cope, he hides his emotions and pain behind his jokester persona. His daddy issues have left his self-worth in shambles.
Odd loves pranks, but they’re also a mask for his struggles. In battle, he instinctively puts himself in front of others in Lyoko, since self-preservation isn’t something he really understands. While phantom pain from injuries is manageable, falling into the digital sea—basically death—is a constant fear. Jeremie’s backup files help, but it’s always tense and stressful.
. . . . . . . . .
What do you think? Do you like it? Odd was my favorite when I was a child, so he was the first I redesigned.
This AU still happens in the early 2000’s, they’re just older than 13-14.
