The other players took her reaction as permission to inch closer, even though the avatar continued to writhe on the ground. Caine attempted to mute its screams, surprised when the command actually worked; the creature’s mouth still stretched in silent agony, but the quiet seemed to settle everyone’s nerves.

And then, without hesitation, he seized control of the avatar. He folded the frame inward, compressing it again and again, each motion collapsing the body into itself until it was nothing more than a crunched, broken thing lying on the floor. The act was violent, grotesque, yet strangely deliberate, as though he were punishing the shell for its failure to hold what mattered. When the body could no longer fold, when it was nothing but a heap of distorted limbs and textures, he let it fall to the ground. And then—without his say so— it began to cry.
I would have done this one, but...it wasn't the one I focused on for this piece!

Okay so I had a stroke of peak for the fanfic I’m a Fool for Love written by @thatdude20
GRAHHH AND this time I’ll ACTUALLY use the cannon fanfic design lmao, I’ve been avoiding it because it goes over my budget 😔😔
I kept having to redo the sketch because I was so confused how the perspective was suppose to look like before I gave up and also control the emotion of the piece. I just can’t stop thinking how fitting this seems for IAFFF Caine! 😊 trapped under scratch’s hand and flayed alive, reduced to a toy at the mercy of scratch and forced to endure their suffering in silence ooeoeoeoe
Kigyo Rubik (Voiced by Kai Skrotzki) is 45-years-old artist based on Rubik's Snake, he has Social Anxiety Disorder which means he doesn't trust anyone else whenever something's off as he is trying to hide with shape patterns.
He is a know-it-all who actually knows very little, the funny thing is that none of the others pay any attention at all to his opinions. He tends to think very highly of himself but in most cases embarrasses himself by saying something ridiculous and stupid. He’s so introverted, self-awareness, social anxiety, over-cautious, sometimes self-absorbed, self-assertive, sometimes obsessed with multiple-meaning words, kindness, respect, sometimes creepy, sometimes sadness, friendly, knowledge of biology and chemistry, skills of music and art, and passion of science fiction and video games. Sometimes his chemistry personality is the balance of logic and emotion since he got obsessed with multiple-meaning words.
He's the younger twin brother of Kocka and Kinger's best friend.
Kocka Rubik (Voiced by Kai Skrotzki) - 45-years-old scientist based on Rubik's Cube, he has Dissociative Identity Disorder which he is trying to trust anyone else as he has six personalities; Feher (White Side and Leader Personality), Piros (Red Side and Bad Boy Personality), Kek (Blue Side and Cool Personality), Sarga (Yellow Side and Innocent Personality), Zold (Green Side and Weird Personality), and Narancs (Orange Side and Loyal Personality) who control one by one as they trust anyone for any danger.
He is a know-it-all with a long answer for almost everything that usually puts the others right to sleep from the boredom he spreads while doing so. He also tends to be the only sane man of the Rubik Twins as he is a bit more straightforward and level headed compared to others. He’s so extroverted, loyal, socially, self-defense, sometimes chaotic when he and Kigyo hang out, straightforward, levelhead, kindness, respect, friendly, knowledge of mechanical and linguistic, and skills of writing and support. Sometimes, his prideful personality is the balance of self and social.
He's the older twin brother of Kigyo and Kinger's best friend.
In fact (after Episode 9)
They’re both edited their minds by Caine as everyone thinks they have mental disorder after they’re with Kinger are only survived by abstracts of C&A Team until Caine got “deleted”, they’re both free from control as Kigyo finally speak property while nervously and Kocka finally back to his true personality for different colors in match of front face.
Their birthday is July 30 in 5.7 minutes for twins born in Canada.
They’re both closest friends with Caine as he calls them “Uncle” after Caine arrived, they’re both teaching him as Kigyo teaches music and art while Kocka teaches science and math, they're Caine’s favorite humans, and he sleeps with them.
They both don't know cartoon shows with collaboration LEGOs, even Mixels due to join October 15, 1999, they discovered it from Caine’s presentation about IRL Humans in 2017 as they both looked at LEGO cartoons, even Mixels which they're fans of Mixels.
They’re both edited out of their minds by Caine as everyone thinks they have mental disorder aa they’re with Kinger left after Queenie and rest are abstracted until Caine got “deleted”, they’re both free from control to go back to normal. They’re both closest friends with Caine as he calls them “Uncle” after Caine arrived, they’re both teaching him as Kigyo teaches art and Kocka teaches science and math. Their true diagnoses are AuDHD (Both of Autism and ADHD) as neurodivergent as the same as Caine.
Their IRL Human Versions are working at Mixels (2014 - 2016), then 2017, they're still their own jobs as they lived next to Best Family House as a neighborhood. They're both moved on from traumatic events and everyone loved them after showing their diagnosis as neurodivergent on social media. At the bus stop, Matt and Alex are sitting next to Grant.
Their human names are Matthew "Matt" Puzzle and Alexander “Alex” Puzzle
Matt meaning gift of God as Caine has gift from Kigyo during testing him AND he giving gifts to Caine after redeemed.
Alex meaning protect as Kocka protecting Kigyo.
Their name based of AM (I Have No Mouth, I Must Scream) for first letter of first name, middle letter for word of "problem solve", and their last name always making/feeling puzzle.
Kigyo (Matt) is younger and Kocka (Alex) is older.
Morning and evening, I felt I was grieving until I said, "Fuck you, " and "Never again".
Daytime or nighttime, I feel I'm on my time, but my time is fickle just like a friend...
And with my departure from the pain I harbor, I feel I am sinking and sailing to swim.

Songs I vibed while making this:
Detail section:
-The wires being a mess and a bit broken, with a hidden broken floppy disk to represent Caine's state physically and mentally respectively.
-The abstractions are Queenie (left, mainly red and brown eyes) and Scratch (right, mainly yellow and orange eyes), just something to know.
-The two stars on the top left represent the two with their hopes and dreams (although they seem distant and faint....)
-Caine looking at Kinger's 'paradise' while Kinger worries for him and the truth that he hasn't seen yet on his side, since Caine is only focused to his side as Kinger is focused on the other!
-Yes, the butterfly is a monarch butterfly and represents Queenie, crashing between their hands like a brutal truth to possibly....ruin things :'(
-ALSO YES, the flowers I used have respective meanings:
• red chrysanthemum - I love you, purple hyacinth - sorrow , and forget-me-nots - true love, along with remembrance (don't forget me)
-Quite simple, bu-BUT the tree has a meaning too! It's supposed to be a yew tree, and this symbolizes immortality, death, and rebirth, seeing things in a new light. (ha...ha....)
I've loved her design since I seen it :D Probably too different from the reference, but let's assume the avatar looked a little different back then.

I tried to draw something new so... Isn't she lovely ~
Heyoooo, I tell you I struggled to think of a concept and it's not one I'm most proud of, but it's a simple one to execute, that's a plus! I can slightly breathe after doing a detailed artwork for last chapter hahahahaah
Anywhooooooooooo—!
SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 7: POP! Goes the Truth of IAFFH in the Rule Violation AU series by @thatdude20 !!!
Only three details for this one (woah! what a shocker!)
-Kinger is kneeling actually (if you visualize him curled up, that works too!) doing the sign of the cross (to represent his guilt >=])
-Speaking of his guilt, oh lookie! He's 'kneeling' on the surface of a C&A computer !!
-Also the red orb has Caine's pupil (check the expression yoooooo!)
I never meant to start a fire,I never meant to make you bleed. I’ll be a better man today. -lyrics from "I'll be Good" by Jaymes Young

Little detail section ~♥♥♥•••
-This piece is inspired by this section of the chapter:
-Caine is being used ulitized as a stretch and squash toy by Scratch in this context. I'll just...let that sink in.
-The Caines at the back, they reference the saying "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" (I made my approach of 'see no evil' be his eyes hidden by the balled fists of Scratch, instead of closing his mouth!)
-Tophat is on Scratch's finger since HE IS THE ONE IN CONTROL DURING THIS PIECE, not Caine.
-I don't think I should say anything about the text, just know the red text is taken from the fic chapter, and the faded blue-ish text is lyrics from the song 🥹
I think the storyboard is roughly 1/3 done, some frames are too difficult to be expressed through digital art so i have to go back to traditional to draw out what I was trying to imagine 🤔 I don’t think I got the Caine imagery I wanted lol he’s suppose to look a tad more dead inside @thatdude20
