🙏🙇Please🙇🙏

We Need more draws of aus rosch

BET! Here's more Swap!Rosch

Benny thinks swap!Candido's feelers smell very nice and likes to lick them. Seafood sticks.

Poppy and Rosch are still best friends in this AU. They met at a support group for burn victims. She poured boiling water on her leg but is doing better now. In this universe, they got to celebrate her 27th birthday together.

No, Rosch never talks about that piercing, Poppy just fucks with him 24/7. Candido gets to hear a lot of "Poppy told me" followed by the wildest takes imagineable. But she also teaches him a lot about popculture so it evens out. I think.

Exist Rosch from others au?? Like a "evily version" or something like that??

YES I'm so glad you asked!

LONG POST AHEAD!!! The closest I have to an "evil" version is Reverse!Rosch:

Reverse!Rosch is a businessman to the core. He is a very charismatic man with a rotten center. He scams, cheats and lies his way to fame and money. Loves being the center of attention and buying expensive showy stuff.

He is very much with the times and updates his wardrobe constantly. Always has the latest stuff. Very into AI and crypto. Zero anxiety, not a good man. Probably allosexual and honestly doesn't treat women that well.

Then we have Swap!Rosch:

Swap!Rosch is what happens when Rosch goes through Candido's backstory. Born in 1979-ish and works as a chemist in the agricultural field. He had an accident with acid in his lab, but being much more careful than Candido is he only burnt his arms and half his face.

Rosch met Poppy in a support group for people with severe burns. Poppy had poured boiling water on her leg. Dhalia was a nurse at the hospital and Edgar a med student. Felicity is his ex that he dated for about 8 years in his mid 30's. Way back in school he had a crush on his classmate Ingeborg, but never had the guts to talk to her.

Swap!Rosch is an incredibly anxious and timid man and a huge people-pleaser. Much of his personality is like how original Rosch was in his first life, only dialed up a little. He lives alone with his elderly cat Benny.

One day Benny goes missing. And a certain half-lobster, 120 year old Candido brings him back. Rosch is so grateful that he even dares invite Candido in for dinner, despite his severe anxiety. Candido sort of never leaves after that and eventually moves in!

Next up is Fem!Rosch:

Much of her story is the same, except the start. Fem!Rosch didn't dare to publish her scientific findings in the 1800's and convinced her husband Ingemar to do it in her stead. He agreed but was upset about the gender inequality and was very involved in the suffrage movement.

When her husband passed life became very difficult. No one believed she was immortal and chalked it up to hysteria. She was admitted to a home for mentally insane women and stayed there for several years. She never got the credit for her discoveries, but her husband's name pops up now and again. She finds it comforting. An honor to his memory. Even though Ingemar's own achievements were sadly forgotten by the world.

Last two are from worlds created by @the-c0nquerer-w0rm <3

Lights, camera action! It's Tumultus!Rosch:

Tumultus!Rosch is a "Bond actor" in his dimension. His name is Colt Knightly and he stars in the Cold Action movie franchise. He is known as a kind if somewhat shy man with tons of charisma. The public loves him. Clean record, no controversies to speak of.

His biggest fan Candido owns all the merch and is obsessed with him. One night, when Colt leaves a stressful gala to catch his breath in an alley, Candido finally gets to meet his hero. But he comes on too strong. Colt is spooked and backs away. Into the street. And he is hit and killed by a car. Candido panics and brings him back to his lab. To bring him back to life. His big project that he has been working on for years. And now with the perfect candidate... It works, and Candido becomes his personal doctor as he lies about what happened.

Colt gets worse and worse. He rots. He loses himself. It all goes downhill when he is interviewed on a talk show and throws up the preservation fluid he is pumped full with on live television. His eyes are glazed over, he is leaking, confused, and then Colt collapses.

The host wants the juicy footage and keeps rolling. Candido rushes out of backstage and pulls Colt out of there. But the blow to his character is irreparable. His career plummets and so does his health.

Last and least, X79!Rosch:

X79!Rosch lives in a complete wasteland filled with violence. He was born and raised in a scuttle bug tank that burrows underground. His parents piloted it and it was built by his grandparents. He has been alone since his folks died and very rarely goes to the surface.

He is an incredibly paranoid man. A shut-in hermit with a short fuse.

Being one of small stature he has to rely on staying out of sight and preparing for every possible situation. Rosch always carries a bomb strapped to his chest and has rigged it and the scuttle bug to explode when he dies. No one will get his things. Ever.

And if things get hairy, he is not afraid to detonate the bombs early.

And that's that!!

Thank you for reading!! <3
