Human!AU Ships

Holism time! And its supporting ships. I decided arbitrarily that they are a stable polycule and purposely made their logos match. In my mind Holism is truly massive, like a "that is no moon, that is Holism" kind of way. This is based on the fact it dropped a module that could act as a mobile station, and that implies to me that multiple ships of Perihelion's size can dock to it.
TRIVIA:
I made up DSACMS which stands for Deep Space Automated Carrier and Mobile Station. It gets its own special label because it's a Big Big Ship. I imagine it's the lead of its class, so all ships built in this variation would be called Holism Class. I bet it's very proud of that.
DSASV is Deep Space Automated Support Vessel because I feel Sum Total and Autopoiesis both serve some specific function, but I didn't want to decide exactly what so that its left up to imagination. If Perihelion can be a cargo/research/teaching/secret espionage vessel I guess these guys can too.
Autopoiesis I picked as a name for the unnamed ship, I tried to keep with the theme established with Holism and Sum Total. It refers to a system that can produce and maintain itself by creating its own parts. Low key I feel like it may be a sort of mobile hospital facility.
I WAS going to make Holism a very dark green (#098328) which is the average perihelion of Earth in astronomic units but I had trouble making it look good with two other colors without it looking vaguely like really weird camouflage. So the hate-ship is there in spirit but not in actuality. Pretend Peri hates its logo anyway because they're both petty bitches.
Notes: You are allowed to use this as you please, but not for commercial works and you must credit me. Don't sell this on stuff, I will find you and I will bite you. Also pictures. I wanna see what you do, so pay picture tax.
Nothingness! To accept the great nothingness of life seemed to be the one end of living. All the many busy and important little things that make up the grand sum-total of nothingness!

Okay just....just hear me out alright?
[ID: A human version of Holism leans against a doorframe with one arm upraised and the other holding the opposite side of the doorframe, it is wearing a tshirt that is riding up where its arm is upraised, exposing some of its hip. It is wearing jeans with tears and patches with band logos on them and has a belt chain. It has swept back fluffy hair and long eyelashes, its eyes are hooded and its smirking at the viewer flirtatiously. It has circuitry tattooed on its left arm and a geometric pattern on its right. /END ID]
Human!Holism is now chewing on my brain stem and I'm mad as shit about it. Headcanons under the cut.
Just some human!ships thoughts.
Additional notes: Aphelion and Perihelion are fraternal twins, Aphe is tall and muscular with dark hair and eyes, Peri is short and built solid, albino. They're transmasc and transfemme and I'll leave it up to you to guess which is which. Autopoiesis' hairstyle is based on a teacher I had in community college who had the most beautiful silver streaked locs I've ever seen. Its a very stoic Black person who is 90% done with everyone else's bullshit. Auto is allo-aro, Aphe is just its one romantic exception because they intrigue each other. Holism looks a lot like a cross between Jo Calderone (Lady Gaga) and James Dean and I love that for it. It has beautiful eyelashes and hair and it is very aware of this. Holi's got that fucking Charm though, it's arrogant and bossy and somehow that works for it in a magnetic way most of the time. It fights with Peri frequently over every petty little thing. Sum Total is friend shaped, it's the shortest of all of them and literally any one of its polycule would kill for it without prompting. It dyes its hair golden blonde but it would be naturally very dark brunette. It's shy and soft spoken. ID under cut

You are the sum total of everything you've ever seen, heard, eaten, smelled, been told, forgot - it's all there. Everything influences each of us, and because of that I try to make sure that my experiences are positive.
