Have some sad sausage doodles in these trying times.

'A meeting I could never expect. But one I'm almost glad I had. You didn't fear me when you saw me, even though I'm far bigger than you, such a small, round creature. You're peculiar, yet familiar. Maybe you think the same of me. You speak quietly, like me. You move slowly, like me. You're always calm, like me. You're damaged, like me. Though my scars are visible, you haven't pointed them out, you've shown no fear, seeming acceptance, as I've accepted you. Quicker than I do most. You speak of things you love, but they're also things I understand. Your love of poetry comes off the most. Your job, carrying the fallen to their resting place. Others see it differently. Morbidly. I understand it. I respect it. I respect you. We see things differently than others. We see the world differently. People see us as dark and dreadful. We appreciate what people see as dark and dreadful. Even living in a world of monsters, people fear me, fear my appearance, because I'm different from the others. I can tell others feel the same about you. We're more alike than most would think. More than I thought. You speak so fondly of the things you love, I'd love nothing more than to simply listen. I don't know what you are, but do I really need to know? You accepted me, as I accepted you. If you wanted me to know what you are, you will tell me. For now, I'll just sit, and listen. We've both been alone for quite some time.'

"... Funny... Most people avoid the rain... I don't understand why... I find it so calming... Relaxing... Nothing but the sound and feel of the drops... The sky is so beautiful, isn't it...?"

I have done it.

Yes, I did get inspired by Sodorz making ocs, what of it.

This lad is actually an old oc I've just never had the motivation to finish him.

Anyways, meet Gideon, my first finished TTTE engine OC.

(info below, it's a lot of reading)

-He/Him, transgender, queer

- Union Pacific Big Boy Engine/experimental type(failed), 133ft(length), 4-8-8-4, steam powered, coal/oil fueled, top speed 80mhp

- Built 1941 and grew up in America/set to be scrapped 1948/saved by Sir Topham Hatt in 1950

- He was an experimental model to see how effective steam power was for his engine type, but after many tests, and getting in an accident where they saw him as unsafe for drivers, he was deemed useless and a waste of resources. He was going to be scrapped and was placed in a scrap yard where he sat for almost two years. When they were transporting him to the smelters, he met Sir Topham Hatt, who bought him and saved his life. Bringing him to Sodor, fixing what his original owners wouldn't pay to repair, putting his available talents to good use, and giving him the life he deserves.

- The accident that scarred him was when he was pulling a train through a canyon and he got caught in an avalanche. Because of the heavy train he wasn't fast enough to outrun the rocks and got badly injured. The worst injury was when a boulder fell right on his face and almost blinded his right eye. His owners wouldn't put in the money to properly repair him, only replacing some parts and just welding most gashes, and merely bandaging his face. By the time he was brought to Sodor it was too late to try and fix his scars so they are permanent, the most they could do was paint him better to try and hide them, but there is no hiding his facial scars.

- He is much stronger compared to most engines, but slower and sluggish and often low energy, usually slower the heavier the train he's pulling

- Mostly does heavy lifting and quarry work, most often stuff that usually would take two engines, as well as pulling freight and flatbeds in larger numbers, sometimes pulls goods trains but doesn't believe he's fast enough for it, doesn't pull coaches or passengers because he thinks he's too slow, if asked he will pull tourist coaches because he doesn't have to go as fast, only does jobs that doesn't require him to be fast

- Tired 24/7

- Sometimes dings his bell when he's bored or anxious

- Speaks with an average American accent but doesn't talk much, not one for small talk but will listen to you ramble endlessly if you want him to

- Dislikes being center of attention but often is because of how different he is, he doesn't like when people point out his scars, he doesn't like being crowded or feeling trapped, has trouble with words so he is easily talked over so he often chooses not to talk, he isn't good with emotions or comforting so he tries to give logical advice instead

- He is more of a selective-social(is more social with people he likes but doesn't interact with strangers or people he doesn't like), tries to be respectful and polite but his blunt honesty often makes him seem harsh or rude, he is surprisingly self conscious especially when it comes to his size and speed, being mistreated and emotionally abused by his original owners pretty much traumatized him, gets very confused and flustered if met by strong affection, especially romantic emotions

He needs love in his life.

(might be polyamorous, who knows, he's never been in a relationship)

Some references of the original engine type. How I design engines will be mostly based on AEG just with more detail.

Aight, hope you enjoy my big burly boy, I love him very much, peace. ✌️✨
