#Roland doesnt have a last name rip

I feel like I see so many contrasting opinions on jobs for Bart when he’s older, ranging from scientist, super suit designer, cop (ew), unemployed and bouncing between part time things, etc. Honestly of those I know my personal favorites are fashion design and kinda bouncing between part time courier jobs (he’s never seemed like a full time kinda person to me tbh).

But I got to thinkin about it, what is one thing that we know Bart loves more than most other things? Video Games.

I propose this, indie video game designer/freelance artist Bart.

It makes sense in my head, Bart’d be bitching to Preston or Kon about how he’s beat like an ungodly amount of games and is getting bored/needs something new to play. They would make an offhand comment, joking about making one himself and I think he would find the idea intriguing. (Or honestly Helen could have suggested it after listening to Max get on Bart about needing to do something responsible to make a living & Bart shutting down).

I think that between hero work it would give him a creative outlet for his hyperfixations. Plus he’d probably have a blast figuring it all out. The first couple of games would be simple, figuring out the basics, but after those I can see him getting like really focused on a passion project game that he fully codes and illustrates. (He probably makes a young justice game, or skins in the games of his friends)

He’d definitely become a hit in the indie gaming community for the unique controls and mechanics in his games. People would reach out and ask him to help make their games, and eventually people would just start becoming really excited for whatever project he was working on.

Meanwhile he’s still just chilling with his friends in his free time, letting them playtest his games and taking suggestions on what the funniest easter egg could be. I think he’d mostly be couch surfing, hopping between staying with friends and “family” members on a whim. Usually chilling wherever the YJ was or hanging out at Carol, Preston, or Rolly’s.

Just feels more fun than him being a DC brand of “scientist” (no specific generalization or study) or cop (again ew). Plus he could still design hero suits while doing this (i like that headcanon, its fun)

throwing fandom characters into death road to canada is so funny.

i made some genshin characters a couple years back (kujou sara & diluc) as well as some of my lobcorp ocs (one of my flowerfield floors) and a pokemon oc (and a random oc of mine named daphne???) as well as homura. theres also my completely original dr2c oc named rebecca. Also slugcats from rain world.

last night, me and my roommate made the sinners + charon & vergilius + angela & roland

the most recent run (roommate is not an active player in this run):

me and roommate (hereon out going to be called pancake) started driving

we recruit gourmand

me, pancake, gourmand refuse monk, recruit rebecca (monk has bad traits & rebecca is actually really good)

i proceed to die to explosion in a gas station

ishmael shows up. we recruit her because yeah.

seige at a yallmart kills pancake, ishmael, and gourmand in that order

we're out of food a this point

hong lu shows up and he has the gun nut perk becuase i did not have any better perks for him LMAO

rebecca and hong lu are fighting because they are starving. rebecca kicks hong lu out and steals all his shit. roommate and i agree that hong lu might be able to survive by the zombies not realizing he has a brain.

rebecca robbed a resturant called Boiled Potatos for all of its food. car broke down. rebecca raided a tourist trap for food and a car. please be aware she is on 1 hp. i have no medical supplies.

rebecca finds rodya at a random camp and recruits her. rebecca then gets her dna zapped because why not. rodya has what i believe to be the worst perk (friend of dog) at this point [i love the dogs in this game, theyre really good, but this trait makes EVERY possible human a dog and i am playing familiar faces mode for a reason. i wish i could toggle perk stars tbh]

rodya and rebecca (aka I, the player) discover how busted guns are in a siege. i will remember this. hong lu may have saved the run.

the car breaks for a third time (not enough gasoline)

rodya suggests making moltovs which. feels in character tbh.

we recruit a doggo.

rodya tries to reason with a mob trying to kill the group but it doesnt go well and she gets hurt :(

we lose the car. again.

we find dog car. dogs are SO good when you need to go fast. they speedy :3

doggo and rebecca die trying to rescue some random guy. rodya was still at the car so she survives. random guy does some first aid. she is now soloing the road to canada. where is her bug husband and sad son.

we lose yet another car.

random dog shows up. i take the dog because at worst we get a supertrained dog and no rodya.

we find another car. is this a bad time to mention that irl idk how to drive and so its really funny how often i lose the cars in this game?

the dog gives up. rodya is alone again. girl please you have 1 day left. girl live for your maybe dead bug husband and your probably dead sad son.

diluc shows up at the final trader camp. this feels in character.

and the run ends to the seige right before the canadian border :( rip to rodya and diluc (i was built different [i was already dead])
