SO there was a watch party for murder drones in a server I'm in, and I had never seen it before.
...safe to say I like it LMAO.
Sooo this was the result of a LOT of back and forth between me and two other friendos in there, one of them even starting to write a fic for the episode 5 of MD for this AU. I'm intending to write a series of oneshots for it too, mostly oneshots because otherwise I risk overwhelming myself since I'm still writing WINE and Abstracted Identity lmao. (I'm willing to bet that what they come up with for ep 5 is gonna be way better than any idea I'd get lmao)
But yes, this is C! they are my new Caine Angst child lmao. I debated doing shading on the ref but it would've made it harder to colorpick stuff from it for later drawings... not to mention I've stayed up four hours past when I should've been asleep so I need to fix that lmao.
Would it have made more sense to give C/Caine the male legs like N? yes. However, I raise you this- I like V and J's legs more LMAO.
(Caine would've been wobbly on their feet anyway, regardless of what legs they have)
There are a few other details, but like, its 3 am, I'm tired, and my dog is barking at me and mad that I'm still awake LMAO.
Me again! I loved the one of Batman x Villian Reader!! Would it be possible to have one but now including Red hood/Jason’s return?

Rising from the dead :
Jason’s life was… interesting to say the least, coming back from the dead, learning the city is still as bad as ever if not worse, trying and failing to grasp at anything that could bring him comfort. Comfort such as being a vigilante, grappling with violent urges he couldn’t completely suppress and a deep need for connection.
Hitting the bottles also became a habit he didn’t care to get rid off, he needed company and this was one way to get some. It’s not like he had much to do or people to care about.
Going back to the manor was out of the question, Bruce would have to work for Jason’s forgiveness and he refused to give it easily but he was left at a crossroad, he was desperate to at least meet someone, to talk and connect with anyone that could relate to him to some extent.
He decided to go back to vigilantism shortly after his resurrection from the pit, he was spiraling and needed to do something with himself or he’d go mad, soon enough the streets started whispering the name of the Red Hood, a figure of vengeance and brutal justice.
There’s only so much he could do on his own and without Bruce’s wealth he couldn’t go far, this limited his arsenal to guns stolen from goons, a “suit” made from salvaged ballistic vest and homemade explosives. He was struggling and it was driving him mad, he really needed something, anything to turn his luck around.
This is when he heard about a shady company called JCJenson, one of his contact in Joker’s gang told him the big boss himself learned of something the company was building and trying to keep a secret, no idea what it is but if Joker was in it then so was Jason.
He never knew what he was getting into that day but does he regret it ? Not at all.
A unique companion :
The Red Hood did his homework before investigating what Joker wanted with the company, he learned they made a series called “worker drones” they lived up to their name by being a cheap and reliable workforce but darker rumors suggest they created another line called the Murder Drones.
It was a pain to get information on this company with his limited resources, everyone seemed afraid to talk and his informant was being a little shit about it, not giving up much info and almost mocking Jason, what happened to respecting your customers ?
He couldn’t dig up much but the name alone was a hint and according to the last discussion he had with his informant this project was supposedly more dangerous than the previously mentioned Drones, this was enough for Jason to investigate this mystery.
No matter if the weapon was the size of a truck or a peanut it couldn’t be allowed to fall in Joker’s hand.
Imagine his surprise when he saw many of Joker’s men leave the building screaming for their lives and ranting about a robot killing everything inside. It was his chance and he took it, carefully moving through clean corridors and passing rooms filled with gadgets he finally found someone he could interrogate.
The building appeared to be desolate from the inside, which was surprising considering the amount of goons he saw running out a few minutes ago.
While he was on the lookout for the mysterious robot or even the Joker himself he did stop to look at some schematics and papers lying around, he didn’t understand clearly what they were about but he identified several of them being weapons such as rifles, railgun, gatling and even some flamethrowers.
He looked at another pile and these ones made mentions of wings, something akin to a jet engine and mentions of a “Solver” along more code gibberish he couldn’t understand, he’d need someone’s help to figure out.
He was about to leave when someone entered the room, out of breath and clearly panicking, so much so they didn’t bother to check if the man inside the room was an ally.
“Man that thing inside the other room is some crazy shit, we have to run before it find us !” Jason made no move.
The goon turned around “Yo Joey say somet-” he was soon introduced to Jason’s left hook and tumbled into a shelf. He had no time to react before a flurry of punch and kicks hits his body in full force.
When he recovered, Jason was surprised to see the man seemed more afraid of the door rather than the Red Hood standing in front of him. His face was a mix of terror and relief, was he hoping Red Hood would help ?
He shoved his foot on his rib-cage, “Talk ! What does joker wants with this place ? Why are you all running away ?”
The man grimaced and put his hands up “Shit man ! the b-boss tried to talk to that thing, it worked at first until i-it tried to impale him then it… ho god it attacked us all alright ?! Look, I hate vigilantes but you have to turn around please , I don’t know where Marc is but I’m pretty sure it gou-gouged his eyes out !”
Jason looked at the man with a scowl, he couldn’t tell if it was an elaborate joke, a misunderstanding or the actual truth but one thing is clear : this man is clearly terrified, sobbing and… kinda begging for help with the way he clutched jason’s leg.
Jason kicked the man away who backed up against a wall, clearly getting more terrified by the second. “We need to get out please… that thing will find out where we are !”
He pointed his gun at the man but his heart wasn’t in it, did he want to kill him ? He sighed “If my source is right then this is bad news, go and if we cross path again I will end you, got it ?”
The man couldn’t believe his ears, he got up and quietly left, clearly watching over his shoulders. Jason didn’t know how to feel about that, was he getting soft ? He shook his head and left the room, heading deeper into the complex.
The corridors lost their white walls and traded them for bloodstains instead, this was a massacre, dead goons everywhere, some with eyes gouged out, other sliced into ribbons, what happened here ?
He moved quietly, his ears searched for any sound but only found flickering lights until he heard someone… whimpering ?
He made his way to the door and slammed it open, guns pointed inside until he recoiled at what he saw, a robotic girl driving her finger in the man’s head, she didn’t even pay attention to Jason. He didn’t know what to think of that, on one hand he didn’t feel pity for anyone working with Joker but this was a bit much even for him.
Her poor victim weakly tried to push her off of him with limited success, the most she did was chuckle as she finally snapped his neck before turning toward Jason.
“Ho ? You are not one of the company’s employee, are you with this ‘Joker’ man that ran away ? I have something for him~” her smile was both innocent and… he couldn’t place his finger on it but something was a bit off.
He pointed his gun at her, a reflex he doesn’t remember asking his brain to memorize, it was done out of instinct but he needed to look threatening “I’m the Red Hood, I came here to... I was concerned about all the people running away but enough about me, who the hell are you ?”
He decided to test her, sure he was here for a weapon and he was certain this was her, would she get rid of him too ? He looked around, corpses and machinery everywhere, a camera and arrays of computer seemingly all looking at both of them.
This unsettling atmosphere wasn’t helped by all the corpses and the girl uncanny appearance, she looks young but still somewhat older, this wasn’t helped by her maid outfit and her mannerism where her arm were kept propped up instead of crossing them or just… letting them fall, she looked like a zombie with her stare and rigid body.
The girl smiled again, genuinely this time and put her hands on her chest. "this would be me, murder drone, property and experimental weapon of JCJenson. Designation: Cyn"
I was working on some MD stuff while binge watching Death Note and I had vision...
I have no idea if some has made this before. I looked it up bc I thought it was hilarious and found nothing. If you guys know anything, please PLEASE let me know
