Hey, so, I've gotten all of the sideblogs to the new reboot blog. Because I'll be moving blogs soon, there will be some people that I'm not actually following. So, to be sure;

If you are still interested with either @slayers-testament, @the-devils-toybox, @powered-by-prower or @android-dreams, like this post and I will follow you on the new reboot blog.

For those following @android-dreams, Polybius has been moved over to the new reboot blog as part of the multimuse in that world. The rest of the blogs however are still going to be in use.

Hey, so I’m planning on bringing Polybius over to @everglow-synth​, so I’m probably gonna be deleting this blog once I get things running over there. I’ll move all the headcanons and such over to the new blog, then I’ll more than likely just dump this one. 

So yeah, if you wanna interact with Polybius, may as well follow the main blog if you aren’t already. Pretty sure everyone is, but better safe than sorry.

Hey everyone! This is a commission I got done for a character in Matthew’s World, really only known as Pockets! A robot skeleton with endless interdimensional pockets, he’s a pretty central part to D&D games I run in Polycus, as Head Quarters (a small arcade he owns) is essentially the group’s meeting place for a good portion of it.

The art for him was a commission done by my wonderful girlfriend, @wispyvee​! She can be found on her tumblr account(though she doesn’t use it often), or by using the links below! If you enjoy the art, I highly suggest giving her a look! Her prices are really good, and she’s the sweetest person on the planet!

Below the cut is a small blurb about Pockets for those interested in the character himself!

Lituana waved her hand, the drones pulling away “I see. I see….Are you a new creation? No data?” she seemed almost disappointed, leaning back “that’s a shame. It’s also a shame that you had the unluckiness to take this form….” the alien thought for a moment “Would you prefer if you were changed? Would that make you more comfortable?” despite the difference, the Queen did seem to have the best intentions despite how terrible it sounded. Apparently the males of her species weren’t as well respected.

“Ah, but your kind…The humans, I mean. There seems to be a large female population as well as male. I take it that the species has a more even split than ours?”

Polybius watched at the drones moved away from him, though it didn’t really do much to inspire much trust. It helped a little, but he wasn’t sure what all was on this ship after all, and this could’ve just been a show. 

“No, I’m... not new.” he replies. “I’m an old unit, by at least a few years. My memories were in the process of being wiped before I escaped captivity, so there isn’t a whole lot up here.” He knocks on his head, a faint metallic thud being heard underneath the false skin.

“...Comfortable?” he asks, cocking an eyebrow. He couldn’t tell what her intent was here, but he was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt... even if he did feel a bit insulted regardless. “I’m perfectly comfortable with what I am. I have the appearance of a human male, and whether or not it’s anyone else’s ideal form is beyond my control... but I’m fine with it.

“As for the population split, it’s relatively even. At least from what I’ve seen, I have no real reason to believe otherwise. Not sure how it is in comparison to your species, but... yeah, I’d say even enough.”

He kinda just shifts his gaze. “I-I mean... I-I’m not picky...” he rubs his neck, a bit out of his element. He takes a deep breath. “W-whatever you’re... comfortable with...?”

“You’re so mean...” he mutters, sighing. “Well... if you gotta, I suppose.”

@lachrymosestorm​ Dez vc: You should. I want to bully him again :3c

“Why do you have to be that way?”

[android-dreams-archive]

I don’t do nearly enough with Polybius... I should change that at some point.

“Yes. I am looking to learn more about the dominant species of this planet. You are built by them, in their image. Therefore, you must have knowledge of them.” she leaned against one hand in a lazy fashion, looking him up and down with her singular eye “Are all machine drones in the shape of the lesser sex?”

Information? From him? Boy, was she gonna be disappointed, he thought. He could give her what little he knew, but to say he was gonna be useful was a bit of a stretch. He barely knew who he was, let alone anything about the world around him.

...Lesser sex? Was he being insulted? It was definitely hard to tell if this was hostility or just a cultural barrier thing, considering... well, space aliens, so he took the safer option of keeping his mouth shut on that matter. After a moment, he shook his head and gathered his thoughts.

“Well, for starters no, we can be made in whatever configurations our creators deem necessary. Human male, or any kind of male for that matter, isn’t a default for us Androids, least of all my line. Aside from that, sorry, I’m not sure how good of an informant I’ll be. Unless you need a map of local back alleys and places to sleep, but given...” He motions around him, as if gesturing to this ship. “...I’ll assume you’re fine on beds.”

It was a strange feeling, not being on edge. He was used to not trusting people as to not let them figure out he was an Android. However, since she not only knew what he was and wasn’t hunting him down for the Corporation, he felt like he could ease up... even if he still didn’t trust her. Her lackeys were holding him at gunpoint, after all.

When he was pulled up unceremoniously into the ship, the Grunts surrounded the entrance, ready to attack if he started to shoot or any such thing, the insectoid race just staring at him as Lituana looked on almost lazily “Greetings, machine.” the massive woman stated, slowly uncrossing and recrossing her long shapely, legs “Welcome aboard my ship.”

As he was brought onboard the ship, he landed on his feet with a bit of a stumble. Noticing the guards right off the bat, he clenched his fists and slowly analyzed his surroundings. It was definitely a ship of some kind, though he didn’t seem to know anything about the inhabitants of the ship... something told him that his old memories wouldn’t have had them in it, either.

As he’s addressed however, he turns to the woman and is met with quite the difference in stature. He keeps his fists clenched.

“Uh... yeah... hey there.” he soon replies. “Is there... something I can do for you?”

[android-dreams-archive]

He had just gotten through running from a group that had been hired to track him down. No, the android wasn’t exactly tired, but with so little time to relax, he could feel his processors starting to overwork themselves. It was definitely frustrating, but upon managing to shake them off, he made his way to an alley to try and sit for a while.

There he sat, closing his eyes to try and regain his composure... at which point he started to notice that he was being lifted up by something in the sky. What the hell was this about? This wasn’t the Corporation, as far as he knew. They weren’t ever this flashy before, so it was weird for them to just start now... was this genuinely an alien encounter?

He tried to escape the beam, but there was very little to grab by the time he could react, with the few things he could grab having either no solid grip or snapping off easily.

The best he could do now was to just let things play out how they would... he just hoped his holdout blaster would be enough, should it come down to it.

@android-dreams has been abducted!

The scouter ship was small for Lituana, though compared to a normal human it would be….rather large. It was cloaked, scanning for things that might be useful in learning about this culture that they’d stumbled upon. One of the grunts pointed at the screen as it picked up a signature, The creature made a few soft chirping sounds at his Queen, and she nodded. An android could be scanned for data, and if it was advanced enough, perhaps it could be used for other things as well…

So the grunt pulled the ship to hover over the android, a tracking beam shooting down to pull him up.

Okay, so sorry I haven’t been on much the past few days; not only has work been kicking my ass, but my internet’s been taking a huge shit. So, put simply, if anyone wants to chat or interact with my muses, feel free to IM me and add me on Discord. It seems to be working better with my internet than tumblr right now.

This applies to this blog, @android-dreams​, @slayers-testament​ and @the-devils-toybox​ as well.

“ Oh I see… well that is good. ” She replies though after that she is rather silent for the rest of the journey to her residence.

Once in front of the familiar building Hikari stopped in her tracks for just a moment before she approached the door but instead of opening it she glanced back at the stranger.

“ I uh… never got your name. ”

He noticed the silence throughout the walk. He felt kind of bad, feeling as though he brought the mood down even further. Once they got to where she was leading them though, he looks around once before she asks for his name.

“O-oh, it’s... Polybius.” he replies. “...Poly works fine, if that’s what you want.”

“...Should I... call somebody? What is going on?”

Very confused Android noises.

“Stab wounds can technically just be an extra pocket for all those awesome rocks you pick up off the side of the road because some age old rock loving entity possesses you momentarily just to say ‘pick up the rock,’ and you do because what else would you do?”

She was relieved when he placed his hand in her own. She took one last look around before she slowly began to take the route back to where she was staying.

“ Would you be okay with me patching you up once we get there ? ” She asked.

That was always a bit of a sore spot for him; he didn’t know what patching up would entail, and given he was on the run, someone finding the ID on the back of his neck would be... problematic, if they had the wrong intentions.

“I, uh... I’ll be fine. My nanomachines are working on repairing my systems anyhow, I should be alright soon enough.”

[android-dreams-archive]

Hikari stood there staring for a good moment at the stranger before she finally looked away so she could glance to the left of her then to the right. Once she was certain things seemed clear she held her hand out to him.

“ Please take my hand I know somewhere you can go to rest. ”

He looks down at her hand. Part of him didn’t want to trust her - the same way he didn’t want to trust anyone... but he also had a strange feeling about her. Not to mention the fact that it was probably only a matter of time before they found him again.

He thought it over for a second, and with a nod, he placed his hand in her own.

“Alright... lead the way.”

[android-dreams-archive]

Hikari was going to tell the stranger goodbye however when she saw him twitch she was quick to run over to him.

However as soon as she noticed the brief flash of his eyes she looked at him in complete shock.

“ Your not human… are you ? ”

He was unsure how to react; he didn’t want to just go around telling people who he was... but this person didn’t seem to be much harm. Simulating a sigh, he shakes his head.

“...No. I’m an Android. A wanderer, just trying to find a place to call my own.”
