#Husk AU

[brandwhorestarscream]

Quintessons making soulless little mock-sparklings called Husks, cloned and grown in test tubes for the express purpose of infiltrating "wild" cybertronian dens and leading the quints right to them. Is this anything??

[celestialalpacaron]

A pretty much self indulgent Husk Overlord AU where he gambled against Val, Husk wins and in exchange, he keeps his casino and Angel's contract is transferred to Husk ;) Oh yeah and they get RINGS!!!

Ever since I found out about this AU I haven't been able to keep it off of my mind??? Like pls, all I wanna do is talk about it. AU belongs to @celestialalpacaron btw! There was also a longer version of the text I couldn't fit in for the life of me but it was basically like, "Why thanks. My boss happens to have decent taste when it comes to picking out clothing." Cuz idk why but in my head the dress Angel wears is like, his 'uniform' for when he's at the casino? Anyway, enjoy!

I don’t know how Al is in this AU, but it would be funny-

Anyway, them being sweet to each other

Can't believe I haven't read the new chapter of OSAS because I was focused on finishing these silly joke doodles pfff

Okay, so, the premise of this joke is that Lucifer and Alastor's relationship has grown so much without anyone else knowing anything about it, but they're also both sillies who have funny ways of showing their friendship and now romance, so I just wanted to doodle that for fun pfff

Also, even tho they promised to keep their romance a secret, I BET these fuckers would get themselves caught, like, they've been caught looking romantic a dozen other times just by Vox alone, not to even mention other characters ppfpfpfp

Anyways, @morningstarwrites I had a peek at the new chapter and saw we're back to team HARD, I'm so happy pfpfpfpf

Bonus:

REMENANT au doodle

.

Currently busy so I'll just be posting doodles and sketches from time to time,, no big complicated stuff 😔

[speakfriendaandenter]

After a year-long art slump, I come back from the dead, covered in dirt and slobbering at the mouth to bring you this Huskerdust Moulin Rouge AU I've been doodling since last January 💖

[barblaz-arts]

I just want to say that I REAAAALLY LOVE your art, and I love how you always draw Charlie so smitten looking at Vaggie 💕 especially in your last drawing. I can relate lol

Also, on the Harem Hotel AU, does Charlie know about the band before Vaggie quit and started working with her? Was she also a fan of Vaggie or…?

Thanks! I mean, just trying to do canon justice ;)

and, lucky you, I was already working on the comic that would answer this question

part one and two

There's a new overlord around town!

Radiotrio day 6: Roleswap!

Alastor - Charlie

Husk - Vaggie

Niffty - Angeldust

Deets under cut!

"Alastor":

Alastor is actually Cain going under a pseudonym. He's trying to redeem sinners not out of the goodness of his heart, but as a fuck you towards Adam, his estranged deadbeat Father. He vaguely believes redemption is possible, but on the outside he gives off the vibe of thinking its nonsense. Eve, who is in hell, is the one payrolling the whole thing. As the first Sinner in hell she holds a bit of power. (Eve - Lucifer swap)

Al exclusively advertises the Hotel through radio commercials and jingles and doesn't really care that it is probably is why no one knows about it.

"Husk":

A fallen angel who always fucked off and drank and gambled during exterminations instead of killing sinners. When he caught his wings were chopped off and he was left for dead. Alastor found him and offered him a deal. Al would keep Husk's identity secret so long as Husk worked for him. Husk tried to refuse and goad Al into finishing him off, but was instead lured into a bet. He lost and became Al's right hand cat.

Husk doesn't believe in redemption at all. He is trapped in Heaven's mindset that once you fucked up you're done forever. He puts up with Al's antics with a heavy amount of booze.

Niffty:

Hell's favorite killing machine. Niffty is a weapons spokesperson working for Carmilla. She's recorded by a camera crew when she goes out to kill his rivals and its all pitched as a fun and brutal reality show with a star who revels in the thrill of the hunt. Niffty loves her craft and is extremely skilled, but is becoming burnt out. She suffers from an addiction to amphetamines to keep up her 'high energy camera persona'. (When exhausted she just ends up freezing out and staring into the camera ala the gag in the show.)

Niffty is ambivalent about redemption, but likes to stay at the hotel cause she likes Al and Husk, and because it gives her a break from work.

Charlie: A former human who made a deal with Lucifer so she could come down to hell and try to help the undeserving sinners there. She is absolutely ecstatic about the hotel and is all but overbearing in trying to help Alastor achieve his goal.

Vaggie: A sinner who went to hell for her 'extremely violent tendencies', despite the fact that all her actions were in the protection of herself and family/home. Charlie found her in the aftermath of a territory dispute, and after helping her/hearing about her backstory, all but glued Vaggie to her side. Vaggie doesn't believe in redemption, due to her guilt/shame over her violent past, but is dragged along by Charlie.

Angeldust:

Charlie's mysterious and excitable friend. Angel loves a good 'naughty boy' and doesn't so much as clean, but rather struts about posing in whatever meido costume he likes for the day. Charlie knows his past and is the reason he works at the hotel. She thinks he is a good candidate for redemption. Angel doesn't really care either way and is just happy for a shit easy job that he can dress up cute for and slack off all he likes!

I don't know when, but I might come back to this roleswap idea in the future and expand out other swaps!

Uhm, heyo! It’s the sparkling “husk” lady again. How you don’t mind me popping in here. But I’ve been tossing a few more ideas around in my head for that AU. Adding into the idea on these “husks” kind of being the cybertronian equivalent of changelings. Maybe just like human folklore, cybertronians tell stories to each other about these “false sparklings” that infiltrate their homes. And just like changelings, there are methods you can use to determine if something is a husk. Some more brutal than others. Maybe some cybertronians are so paranoid about their adopted sparkling potentially being a husk, that they end up seriously harming or even killing their child only to find out it wasn’t a husk at all. Just like how some humans in the past hurt their own babies out of fear of them being a changeling :(

Sorry that got a little depressing towards the end…but that’s also how folklore often is :0

On a sort of lighter note, wonder what the specific reason the quintessons have for kidnapping cybertronians in this AU? Maybe to act as unwilling servants?

(Oof that was a lot wordier than I was planning, pardon the thought dump!)

Don't be sorry at all!!!! These are excellent ideas and I LOVE rambling about this 🥰

Originally the Husks were intended to be relatively new Quintesson weapons. Since Cybertron is offline, their population is way down, and any survivors are scattered across the universe, the quints no longer have easy pickings for their favorite slaves. They developed the Husks as a way to infiltrate dens of "wild" cybertronians, to collect data and make them easier to poach. The reason they hunt wild ones is because, while they can be bred in captivity, it takes a looong time for them to reach maturity, and it's so costly it's often deemed as not worth it (even if the resultant captive-bred cybertronian is much more docile and easier to train).

Eventually, I think Husks might become well known enough that the above described paranoia could happen 🥺 but it'd be really sad, and far into the future 👀 which insinuates a lot going down beforehand. The Husks simulate being alive perfectly: they play and laugh and cry, they have their own thoughts and feelings. But without sparks, without souls, they'll never be real. Every single sparkling has a spark chamber that's frightfully empty, not a speck of light in their chassis'. It's the fastest way to check, but no one in their right mind would just rip open a baby's chest like that 🤭

Imagine a couple of the very first perfected Husks ever made being dispatched to earth. Continuity isn't really important, but just imagine a cybertronian escape pod being detected entering earth's atmosphere, and the precious cargo within is several damaged-but-functional cryotubes. Giving off a distress signal once it hits the planet, the beacon designed to register as being from a créche. Perfect bait 😌 autobots or decepticons, it truly doesn't matter whom, falls for it hook line and sinker. Let the bonding begin >:)

[celestialalpacaron]

Raise your hand if you are a believer that FatNuggets doesn’t immediately like Husker and will try to protect his daddy Angel and bites Husker in defense after he gets found out 🙋🏻‍♀️
