Their relationship is everything tbh. I love sibling dynamics in media and Megaman is no exception, I just wish we got more family moments with the Light Numbers. The comic's got some, but I wish we got more in the games more than anything.
Also, this particular issue made me laugh uncontrollably for a second cuz apparently, "playing rough" in the Light family means public destruction.
(I'm aware that they were doing demolition work but still)
I really like the emphasis on Rock and Roll being kids and being siblings. Both because of how sweet they're relationship is, and because the series will totally use it to hurt me down the line.
Dr. White's pov when he tells the first Mighty Number his entire purpose is to beat other robots until they're near death for sport.
Wooooo boy, it's been a while since I've posted anything here-
Feel free to enjoy some doodles of one of the lesser known MegaMan characters from the MegaMan MegaMix manga: Piano. (Her alternate names are Tone or Clef)
She didn't really have a huge role in the manga, specifically being created just to explain stuff to the reader and the other characters in the manga. She was ultimately cut in favor of a more natural flow for the manga.
That doesn't mean she's not interesting though. In universe, Piano was built to look after Bass and make sure he stayed in line. She's like his opposite and has no combat ability of her own, instead being in control of several gadgets. Fitting, since Bass is named Forte in the MegaMix and in music Forte is opposite to Piano.
I've known about her for a while and have seen a few posts of Piano so I'd thought that I'd throw in my own doodles. As well as how in how I'd imagine her personality, inspired by @miserymet's interpretation of the character. (You should check them out, their art style is so good and their comic's really interesting so far)
So, what's Piano like? I'm thinking quiet, polite, and small. She speaks with a soft but flat voice. I also imagine she's shy too, often hiding away to tinker with her gadgets or clean something or other at the Wily Castle. I'd also think it'd be funny if she reads Wily's diary when she gets bored, so she's sneaky too.
Forte doesn't think much of her at first and Piano tolerates his attitude, but eventually they bond over making fun of Wily's poor decisions. Maybe Forte starts to care about her little by little and Piano begins to enjoy his presence more and more. They do still bicker at times, but they do form a bond.
Had this doodle for a while and there's more but I wanna draw some of them digitally so it'll be a while.
Yes that smug expression was inspired by @aspergerasparagus
Her characterization of the cast of Finding Frankie is super funny. Especially the Lucky Contestant (lovingly called Lucky for short).
She also writes short stories too if you wanna read. Just remember to read the tags and warnings before you get into it so you don't read something that makes you uncomfortable.
And here, we have the lovely parents.....
......totally confused about how this even happened
My thoughts about the kid are below the cut if you wanna read
I'll be honest, I never gave em a name so if you're reading this feel free to just come up with one in the comments or something.
Aside from that, I did try to keep some things in mind when I drew them. I wanted to use triangles to make up the entire body but I thought it looked off and ended up harnessing Jax's twink energy. In hindsight I could've given the kid yellow ears and be done w/ it, but I couldn't resist reopening old wounds for good ol' Billy. Sometimes kids adopt traits from their grandparents and I wanted to reference Bill's parents in some way. Kinda makes me wonder if Bill would even accept this kid. Allow me to go on a little tangent if you please.
The creator of Gravity Falls himself answered that Bill's character is that of a spoiled kid that never grew up and that's completely true, but there's something deeper going on. Bill's immaturity stems from a deeply traumatic experience: destroying his own universe. We don't know specifically how or why he did it, but it still happened, and while Bill plays it off as "liberating" the flat minds of the people of his flat world in the show, we can see in his book that Bill regrets what he did. The benevolent God of Gravity Falls, The Axolotl, confirms it: "Saw his own dimension burn/Misses home but can't return." Bill even calls himself a monster in when we read his book, one that would eat Ford alive.
How does this relate to Bill's immaturity? Bill lives in denial. He can't face the reality that he killed everyone he knew and loved, so he tries to drown out their screams with unrestrained chaos. He needs to be distracted so he doesn't have to think about them anymore. Bill doesn't want to grow up, because that would mean acknowledging that he did and still does awful things to those around him. @praisetheaxolotl goes into better detail about Bill and his issues, if you're a Gravity Falls fan then you should take a look at their stuff I think they're awesome.
Back to the beginning, what does all this mean for the kid? Well, Bill probably isn't gonna care too much for their health or mental state. He may try to encourage them act as he does. Uncaring of others and disregarding guilt or remorse in favor of "fun." Honestly, Jax may do the same though I can't be absolutely sure of that. We don't have much on Jax's character when compared to Bill.
Man, it really is hard to make an interesting character with no trauma whatsoever. Guess that'll be something for me to try in the future.
....I drew a Bill Jax fankid....
Back to sketches!
With how bad things got in the MMZ era, I kinda wonder if the guardians even had hobbies. Realistically they'd probably be too busy fixing up the planet and protecting Neo Arcadia to really do anything else.
Do you guys think that Will Cipher is a version of Bill that fully expresses his feelings about destroying his own universe instead of hiding what's really going on?
He's just a sad littol guy. A soggy cool ranch dorito if you will.
Also, here's another version of the outfit bc I couldn't decide which one I liked more. Even added a doodle of Opposite Jax smiling. I don't really see him happy so I just decided, eh what the heck why not?
Will is happy to have such a nice friend now and Jax enjoys the appreciation hug.
The Amazing Digital Circus finally got to me....
With that said, allow me to introduce you to the circus's very own...
Animal Tamer!!
Abel!
Aka, my own personal take on the speculation surrounding C&A.
There's biblical imagery in TADC if you look for it, especially when it comes to our beloved Ringmaster himself, Caine, who's believed to be named after the first murderer in the bible. That paired with the C&A logo that briefly shows up has led people to believe that Caine had a brother named Abel.
This is just what I think Abel would look like if he does show up in the future or at all. I imagine Abel's an AI, like Caine, but is surprisingly emotionally intelligent and ran the program that allowed humans to leave the circus. (Slight reference to @fannele's version of Able) If we follow the pilot, then something happened to him, but since Caine was described to be a silly guy by @gooseworx themselves, I don't think he had anything to do with it. (If he did it might've been an accident.) The programmers might have potentially removed Abel or accidentally deleted him for some reason, we can't know for sure.
Those are just my thoughts on Abel and whether it's right or wrong, I don't really care. I just like how this guy came out! I'll be honest though, I probably should've chosen a better pose that convey's Abel's personality a bit more. That and he just generally looks like Caine but with a different outfit and a different head. He low-key looks like if Caine wanted a to wear a very slight Sonic themed outfit.
Idk, I guess I just subconsciously wanted Caine and Abel to be twins. (Darn it ninja turtles you have invaded my brain even now!!).
Anyways. That's just my take, hope you like!
A friend of mine recommended that I practice backgrounds and I decided to try it out with a doodle from the last player 2 au post.
Not used to it at alllll. Still though, I think it came out alright.
KITTY!!!! (JK I'm a dog person)
This guy was made to accompany an oc of mine as a magical companion/support character. Since then, I've changed them to something different, so surprise!!!! Y'all get to see the "beta design."
i like a lot of things. fair warning, I have very sporadic updates. worry not, I'm not dead.
