The Elysium Program Experiments: Want (Bunnydoll)

( Please do NOT repost my art on ANY platform. Thank you. )

... What a bold move, flirting with your rival after a sparring loss. I have no extra long explanation for this [INCORRECT BUZZER] except that I was heavily inspired by the Quaritch and Varang clip that was circulating last week-- it REALLY reminded me of Elysium!Jax/Judas and Elysium!Ragatha/Raphaela's dynamic in the beginning of their rivalry (seen by the fact Judas had his old implants here + eyes weren't bloodred all over). These two regularly sparred outside of their missions just to train or let off some steam from a previous skirmish. Judas gets injured really easily but he doesn't feel pain, so getting beat up and looking worse for wear is a normal occurrence. Raphaela meanwhile has a tougher body so she doesn't have the same kind of disrepair after a battle/spar. Despite their rivalry, they very much respected each others' prowess and skills to a certain degree (as respectful as they are when they constantly push and nag/tease/mock each other in battle (that's moreso Judas than Raphaela really but she bites back)). In these friendly fires within their base, the bonding that happens after their spar is always over tending to wounds/tears in their skin/exoskeleton. They usually just patch up and then go to Elysium!Caine (or Prometheus as he's called in this AU) for the actual repairing.

The Elysium Program Experiments: 'Wedding bands' (Bunnydoll)

( Please do NOT repost my art on ANY platform. Thank you. )

I suck at graphic design Ahem ANYWAYS--

No context except the fact that Elysium!Bunnydoll is teeeechnically married. They didn't have any available rings, but they can match fits and be married as hell about it.

I'm slowly getting the gist of what TEPE!AU is about, as well as the others in it, but talking or drawing more of it will be if I'll have the time to fit it into my brain right beside TSVD for that... alas, time will tell. (reference below cut)

(If I can't give TSVD!Bunnydoll their flowers of kissing and being happy yet I might as well toss that bouquet straight to Elysium!Bunnydoll because they're the more stable couple)

POV: Be Jax/Judas-- Just a few months fresh out of your cybersleep and you try to intimidate the senior skirmish fighter with knives for legs who has impaled you before. She does this-- and wdyd?

K n e e l

(This was wayyy long while before they got married and was just starting to warm up to each other -- and by that I mean fostering a rivalry born out of competitiveness and pride (moreso one over the other but still-- just a silly idea I had since drawing Ragatha/Raphaela's skirmish mode))

The Elysium Program Experiments: Like A Man (Bunnydoll)

( Please do NOT repost my art on ANY platform. Thank you. )

... a prequel to the 'Want' post :3 how TEPE!Jax/Judas acquired his wounds from their spar,,,, hehe. To be very fair, he went straight up to her thinking he had TEPE!Ragatha/Raphaela cornered. Little did he know that the wall was a prop for his loss... safe to say, don't ever underestimate the key skirmish fighter with a great number of successes up her belt.

That said, Judas doesn't feel pain-- he's the only cyborg in Elysium that is afflicted with that error in his body. But he never really asked TEPE!Caine/Prometheus to fix that little programming problem-- it meant he can fight for as long as he wants in battle despite sustaining wear and tear in his limbs. Makes for some hefty maintenance work though. Meanwhile Raphaela has a pretty tough body with a thick outer shell of a skin (though only the parts that have the marble patterns are tough. the ones with leather/cloth are flesh so not much defense is provided there) so her body durability is at least a bit more sustainable when she takes hits (but she has the upperhand here due to having more experience with fighting than him since he's still a good couple of months fresh out of his cybersleep in this period of time. Still.)

But hey. Bunnydoll sparring and enjoying the sparring. They aren't even dating yet let alone married in this timeline BUT we love us a rivals to lovers development.

BUT ALSO HAVE A CLOSE-UP cus me like me some battlesexuals on main. Sorry.

TSVD & TEPE: Saying The Same Thing About Purring (Bunnydoll)

(Please do NOT repost my art on ANY platform. Thank you. )

Just something mellow and cute for bunnydoll, based on a question from the insta sticker (How did Ragatha/Raphaela find out that Jax/Judas can purr?). Their reactions and responses were all the same in both universes... because who wouldn't love being able to hear and feel that deep rumble for what could basically be called a gigantic fur pillow?

I might have fcked up the size difference a tad bit too much but yknow what, fck it. I wanna indulge in softness for this doodle. So they're being soft. Have at it.

SO--

My friend has been challenging me to oc-ify bunnydoll for a while now, so now I was like 'bet', and boom--

THESE CAME OUT OF MY HEAD. Originally it was gonna be a one-off thing but... now it's a new AU. I think. I don't have much lore to think about yet because this still came out of my brain fresh as heck but I'll let these indulgent designs speak for themselves... anyways hi bunnydoll I love you bunnydoll you will always get first grabs for everything I make mwah mwah

Once again it's originally a what-if of me letting my imagination and love for details run rampant for them both. I still think it's not 100% bunstel-fied BUT these designs will hold on their own until I think about this AU and develop it some more. So here's the couple themselves. (Their names are Judas and Raphaela in this AU respectively speaking but for the sake of consistency and familiarity we will still refer to them by Jax and Ragatha) (these are not their final designs yet though, just testing the waters for now) AND THEN CLOSE-UPS (forgive the inconsistencies I was trying to get a hang of drawing them for this entire thing, I did not expect to get so attached to their designs at all):

There is a few things different about Elysium!Bunnydoll that I can't say the same for TSVD!Bunnydoll: They're stable (as stable as you can call it that is), happier (same vein as their stabilitiy), actually together (and married WHO SAID THAT) and I can draw them kissing-- LIP TO LIP AND EVERYTHING. Sorry TSVD you gotta wait your turn-- anyways ELYSIUM BUNNYDOLL WINNING FR (no they can't have kids no they don't have any parts to make said kids either, they are not freed from those shackles)

Anyways who knows, I may or may not add more to this AU and explore its concepts. Who knows. I've got design ideas and an inkling of what this AU might look like or what it is in mind already, time will tell but INSHA'ALLAH IT WILL HAPPEN
