Silly little joke

Pardon me if it's been asked before, but what are carriers and donors in terms of your experiment ocs?

(wall of text incoming)

According to C:U lore told via EPDA notes, Expies (and I think all Sawians by extension) are gonosimulistic, meaning they have two fully functional reproductive systems and any two individuals can breed with each other. Apparently they're also capable of asexual reproduction. That last part confused me a bit because I only vaguely remembered like… slugs and one species of lizard doing something like that. I assumed Expies have uteruses and placentas by the virtue of having human/mammalian DNA…

Anyway, I went ahead and read up on agamogenesis. What personally struck me as interesting was the fact that in this and other related articles, the organism capable of producing eggs or copies of itself was often referred to as the mother/female, especially when talked in the context of vertebrate animals (not amoebas or insects). I suppose this is fine if we're talking about biology without societal implications, and funnily this is what the EPDA note mentions, too.

When I first made my Expie OCs I didn't know they should be (?) gonosimulistic… so I decided to just slap the AU sticker on it. Now my AU story assumes that Sawians with single functioning reproductive systems can exist, but they're not as common. Still, I was a little hesitant to use male/female/cosexual (???) to describe their phenotypes, but then I remembered @flickering-nightfall's post on speculative biology of Rain World creatures - this is where the donor and carrier words come from. In the context of my AU, most Sawians are carrier-donors (gonosimulistic, about 50%), while the rest can be sole donors (male, 26%) or sole carriers (female, 24%). The greater genetic shuffling helped expand their natural lifespan from 30 to about 60 human years with much lesser risk of cancer, which was beneficial for the future plans of colonising the Grey Planet. I like to think the Company staff would sooner use those terms over male/female/other in order to not project human gender/sex frameworks onto the freaky test tube creatures, but also to kind of… further dehumanize them by only describing what their bodies can do, rather than acknowledge them as sapient species with identities.

Of course, such a policy absolutely would not stop the company staff from projecting human gender onto Expies. I believe Sawians have no innate concept of societal roles so if gendered pronouns are used it's very likely that the experiments accepted whatever their human caretakers called them, like a child would define their place in society by listening to parents.

Do you think Mr Krupp would at one point try to adopt the captain Underpants persona to try and please the boys?

Oh boy, it's been a while since I answered questions of the au

Well, actually yes, at some point he would do it, but he would feel embarrassment at the beginning, however eventually he would feel more comfortable playing with them because it would give him a happier memory of his childhood.

Or maybe he just feels good because deep down wanted to be a father and play with his future son/daughter(s) but he didn't know it 👀.

(but he wouldn't be in his underwear, he would only wear the cape)

Edited: BRUH Fr my drawing style with CU always changes by post what's wrong with me?)

Short aniamtion coming soon :

Written by George Beard Drawing by Harold Hutchins

OMG y'all! First part is out! I made very very small changes in the desings, the lore will be explain soon, i'll make few animations to explain some things, i'll edit it and add it here (hope that makes sance) part 2

Recently read The Melvorganization comic while listening to the sonic crush 40 songs and honestly it was awesome

Projecting?? I would never project on characters!!!

Anyway, I drew ppv melvinborg by @imgoingtosetmyselfonfire (I don’t know if they’re okay w being @‘d) so yeah ^_^ have my doodles

[I might color some later idk]

CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS AU WIP BABY!!

This is just one part of it but, yeah this was heavily inspired by this but here are the bullet points that led to this (extremely simplified):

Harold had a not good relationship with his mom

Came out to her in a heat of the moment fight

She straight up abandoned him and took everything thing except stuff from his room

Edith moved into Harold's house not knowing HE WAS STILL THERE

She adopted him

Harolds Dad came back as a teacher and caused even more emotional distress

Harold got covered in this paint with his vent art and his distress physically manifested like this, turning him into a monster

He acts abstraction like

George is able to calm him down

Cap/Krupp and Edith comfort him, basically FAMILY

ANGST AND FLUFF!!!

This is a digital recreation of cover art for a scrapped mini comic! Unlikely it will see this blog but the outfits are too cute to leave in the folder forever. Eating out is Thanksgiving coded I think.

Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you all have fun with your families!
