13. Do you have any troublemaker OCs?

14. Introduce an OC with a tragic backstory

ngl, this took me off guard. I rebloged that OC questions post 2 weeks ago and I thought nobody was going to send any questions so I was unprepared.

I'm taking the opportunity to draw 2 of my oldest OCs (from high school), I even color it. (Sorry for all the people who are here for DCA art but also not sorry)

I had to think about the first question, non of my recent OCs would be considered troublemakers, then these two came to mind.

Alex can be a very polite boy but short tempered so you can assume that he's always getting into fights and causing trouble because of this.

April is very energetic and very skilled but is always touching stuff or poking her nose where she shouldn't.

So they both are always dragging each other into trouble.

For the second question, 90% of my OC has trauma lol, so I'm going to talk a little more about Alex and April.

They both lost their parents by the same guy at different times. When April was very little, her home village was razed by an evil organization who were taking the people and children with them to experiment and/or recruit them. She lost her family but was saved by her uncle and he's been keeping her safe and away since then.

Years later something similar happened to Alex. He was with his parents attending a doctors appointment when suddenly the facility was being razed by this evil organization. They had a ship lifting the entire building but something failed and everything fell to the ground causing several deaths, Alex's parents included. He lost his legs in the incident and then busted his hearing due to and explosion.

Alex was found later in very bad conditions by Aprils uncle and they rescue him. The uncle gave him new mechanical legs and get him hearing aids.

Now Alex and April are like siblings and they both want to kick the ass of the asshole who's been causing trouble to the world.

Also the lineart of the drawing because I like how it turned out

I'd like to give them a proper redesign. Someday.

Do you know if there is a term for when someone's gender is pretty much genderflux, but with bursts of a different gender? For example, someone's gender mostly fluctuates between fem and agender but gets long and strong bursts of male?

Hmm, I can mostly think about fluidflux, an identity that shifts both in intensity and “nature”, so to say

(As in, if a male/female genderfluid person fluctuates between female and male, and a female genderflux person goes between female and genderless, a male/female fluidflux person could go from male, to female, to genderless, to partially female and male, to sort of male but mostly genderless, and so on.)

Spikegender is a thing, but it’s mostly used as either “unknown gender with bursts of a gender that can be defined” or “agender with bursts of gender”.

I guess you could say you are both spikeboy/spikegender boy and girlflux/genderflux girl too, either by leaving those as that or by saying you are bigender or bigenderflux (because the intensity of both genders change).

Hope that helped!

EDIT: Just remembered razorgender is a thing too, which is a gender that is sharp and singular, yet moves swiftly; so your gender could be partially razorboy, if it moves swiftly between something else and male.
