I take the characters and i turn them into a psychonauts characters.
this started out as a funny style exercise but now I have a whole crossover au. why is this happening to me.
Atlas and Portia both work for VCorp, a rising star of the tech industry. Most famous for the shockingly advanced digital assistant Vexter, they're now developing a large-scale immersive Virtual Reality system. But curiously, they claim the prototype of this system only works for psychics.
The Psychonauts have been interested in VCorp for a while, and have launched investigations into its secretive practices and use of Psitanium for research. However, these investigations have yielded few results. And now, the agents who've infiltrated the company are acting... odd.
Portia has tried to help the investigation at every turn, albeit under the radar for fear of losing her job. While she has her own theories on what VCorp is up to, she prefers to act on most of them in secret. Atlas used to help her, but the two had a falling-out, and now Atlas is one of the VR testing initiative's greatest participants.
Less well-polished drawing of Vexter's two main avatars, nicknamed "Interface" (left) and "Admin" (right). Interface has a peppy, upbeat persona, perfect for chatting with the average user. Admin is a bit more subdued and talks with more technical detail, working more directly with systems than users.
They are both exactly the same person program, however. Just Vexter with a different set of parameters. and they're both a fucking trainwreck
i have so so so many things i could say about this au. stay tuned for more brainworms, because I'm gonna be on the same channel for a WHILE
