*KICKS DOOR DOWN*

GUESS WHAT'S HEREEEEE

Time Stands In A Duel (And I Stand For You) - Chapter 1 - KatlynnWalker - gen:LOCK (Web Series) [Archive of Our Own]

THE NEW AND IMPROVED TSIAD.

The old one has been completely scrapped. I did not like it. It's still in my Google Docs if anyone wants to just be able to reread it but the plot is set up completely different now.

(PS, if you guys spot any glaring errors, which I think I caught them all, but you never know, please don't hesitate to tell me!! I'd love to know!!!)

I'm so glad I finally like where I have TSIAD, I've been so ready for it to be out... and here it is. Uh... 4 years later, technically. Chapter 1 only, of course.

Enjoy!!

OKAY BUT LIKE

Team Genlock finally get their own rooms at RTASA and it takes Cammie 3 months to sleep in her own bed on her own after everything that happens.

Val lets her cuddle up for comfort. Kazu makes her sleep at the other end of his bed but lets her keep like a foot or something on his back so she knows he's still there. Yaz has her drag her mattress into her room because Cammie sleeps like a starfish but won't fall asleep until she does. If she goes to Migas the team finds them passed out on the floor with their ether goggles on in the morning. If she's not in someone else's room, the others are in hers making sure she's fine. Everyone keeps their doors open for the first couple months in case Cammie needs them, and she's careful not to wake the same person too many times in a row so everyone still gets decent sleep.

When Cammie finally goes to sleep on her own and doesn't wake any of them up, they almost cry with how happy they are that Cammie's getting better

no thoughts only hcs of characters falling asleep easily around people they trust

@unlockthestars: Send 😙 for my muse’s reaction to yours being super affectionate [Yaz, Val, or Kazu]

"Woah-- uh... ye feelin' okay, Yaz?" She couldn't feel the hug, not really: VR had come a long way in the past hundred-or-so years, but her avatar still couldn't feel Yaz's arms wrapped around her. Leave it to Madrani to only be affectionate like this in a place where she couldn't even feel it, and where no one else was gonna witness it to believe it.

After a moment of continuing the awkward embrace, Cammie disconnected from the Ether, hopping down off of her bunk to head to where Yasamin was sitting, carefully wrapping her arms around her from behind. "Dinnae feel like ye need t' hide behind yer avatar for affection."

@missallanea asked: [ OBSERVE ] sender purposefully runs out into the rain without an umbrella to enjoy the storm while receiver watches. (for literally any and all of the GL kids)

They didn't get much downtime, these days, what with everything that was happening. The gen:LOCK team was usually either training or studying with Dr. Weller, which was also a form of training. There was a lot they needed to know about the technology they were compatible with, and not a whole lot of time in which to learn.

But even they had time off. They had to, for the good of the program. Since their brains were the key to achieving gen:LOCK, Dr. Weller made sure they had at least some time off to rest and recuperate, to use as they saw fit, within reason, of course.

So when that time off corresponded with a sudden rainstorm, Cammie was the first out of the dorms, with Yasamin following after her.

"Cammie!" she called after the Scot, but Cammie was outside by the time she caught up to her, letting out a delighted shout as the rain poured down around her.

Yaz watched from the doorway, a smile on her face as she shook her head. Honestly, she wasn't sure why she'd expected anything different from the youngest member of their team; running out into the rain without any sort of protection was exactly the sort of thing Cammie would do.

After a moment of hesitation, Yaz followed her out into the storm, lifted her hands above her head, and let out an exclamation of her own. She couldn't remember the last time she'd been in a rainstorm like this…., and she loved every moment of it.

WAKE UP EVERYONE NEW GEN:LOCK TRAILER JUST DROPPED!!!

[short-wooloo]

gen: LOCK S2 isn't real

It's all just a Union simulation trying to break Yaz after she was captured at some point after the S1 finale

[gigawatt-conduit]

The irony about genlock 2 is that it kinda ultimately loops back around to Gray doing it to himself

If he hadn’t decided to do that shit he did (allegedly and all that), he could’ve had full creative control and a hot series on HBO max. whatever you say about the man it’s clear that he knew what he wanted that show to be, what themes he wanted to pursue, etc

but instead he tried to speedrun through the success that Monty got and now he’s gotta sit back as his baby gets essentially gutted to become a less charming, way grosser copy of itself

[unlockthestars]

Yasamin does not blame the other woman for her question in the slightest; she had been living in Atlas for a few years, at this point, and with so many refugees who had never set foot outside the kingdom until now, it was a worthwhile, very valid question to ask.

The pilot offers the other a slightly rueful grin. "I grew up in Vacuo; I know what it takes to survive," she finally responded. Which meant that she was uniquely situated to hopefully be of some help: she'd lived in Atlas enough to have the trust of the Atlesians, and she knew how to live in Vacuo.

"I'm Yasamin," she introduced herself, holding out her hand. "But you can just call me Yaz." Pretty much everyone did, with the exception of Dr. Weller, though even he defaulted to her nickname at times. "It's been a while since I've been back, but…., you never forget how to live in Vacuo."

Honestly, Noire wants to say yes immediately. The Happy Huntresses have been doing their best, but they were from Atlas and Mantle. They don't really know how to survive in the desert. It is a completely different skill set from surviving in the Tundra. And while the woman in front of her looks perfectly capable, Noire still feels like she should ask.

"Before I accept, please tell me you know how to survive in the desert." Accepting help from a well meaning idiot would just make her life ten times harder and she could not deal with that right.

@unlockthestars: “ you’re lucky you’re cute. ” [GL kid of your choice; this could come from any of them]

Normally, when she's being called cute, it feels like a compliment, maybe some friendly teasing. Out of Yaz, it sounds more like scolding. Still, if she was really mad at her, she wouldn't be calling her cute... right? She'd sound more like she did when going off on Chase for being his usal, Chase-y self.

"Ain't luck -- it's called a survival strategy," she finally comes back with a cheeky grin. "Think about it: nobody goes an' suspects the cute l'il blonde girl a' bein' anythin' worth worrying about. So they leave me alone. Tha's how I got away with hacking into two major banks b'fore the Polity caught me."

A pause, then, and a more sheepish expression: "Dinnae think it'll work on Marin, though."

Meet gen:LOCK

So I know not a ton of people know gen:LOCK, but I absolutely adore this show. We don't talk about Season 2; it doesn't exist. To help facilitate potential interaction with my GL kids, I thought I'd do a quick writeup of them. Note that they do all have RWBY verses because they honestly would fit in that whole world pretty well, but this is just a general sort of rundown.

A quick synopsis of the show itself (pulled from Wikipedia):

"It is set in a dystopian future Earth where an international coalition known as The Polity fights a hostile, autocratic invading force known as The Union. The show follows the gen:LOCK program and its members, who participate in the development and testing of an experimental technology which allows for individuals with unique mental make ups to have their minds uploaded to giant suits of mecha armor called "Holons"."

My crew consists of three of the gen:LOCK team members, the mind behind it, and one of the Vanguard (Polity) soldiers who has been fighting the Union for a while and is helping to train the GL team.

Let's start with the mind behind the technology, Dr. Rufus Weller.

From the gen:LOCK wiki (with some omissions): "Doctor Rufus Weller is a character in gen:LOCK who brought with him "both humor and seriousness". A scientist in the Experimental Science Unit, Weller was the eccentric yet brilliant creator and overseer of the gen:LOCK program, designed to give the Polity an edge in the war against the Union."

He's a scientific genius who created the technology that sets the story in motions, he's calm under pressure, and he can be ruthless when he needs to be.

In his RWBY-verse, he's a top Atlas scientist, working with the likes of Pietro Polendina to develop the most advanced tech in the world. He's currently working on a project that could revolutionize life as we know it, and he hopes it will make a difference in the standard of living in Remnant overall.

Next up, we have Kazu Iida:

From the gen:LOCK wiki: "A rough, unwieldy military operative from Japan, he arrived at the Anvil as part of the Experimental Science Unit's gen:LOCK program alongside Julian Chase and several others, having passed the "Weller Test"."

Previously part of the Japanese military, Kazu's unit was very supportive of having him transferred out to the ESU. He'd been demoted for insubordination, and he can be rough around the edges, but he cares a lot about the people he chooses.

In his RWBY-verse, Kazu grew up in Mistral, no stranger to the city’s vices and virtues.  He attended Haven Academy for a time before being kicked out. Eventually, he was recruited to go to Atlas to test the new Holon program as he was one of the people compatible with the technology.

Our next recruit is actually one of the first: Yasamin Madrani

Pulling from the GL wiki once again: "She's a talented and confident recruit from Iran who finds her calling in the Experimental Science Unit's gen:LOCK program. On the other hand, she has been reluctant to reveal her past involvement with the Union to her fellow comrades. [At one point,] Yaz [was] being held and questioned by military police at the Mesa Detainment Center. Meanwhile, Rufus Weller asks Raquel Marin to accept a transfer request that would put her into his custody. This makes her the second gen:LOCK recruit, after Julian Chase. Like Chase, Yaz has military experience, but unlike him and all of the other gen:LOCK pilots, she is a former member of the Union."

Yaz has a dry sense of humour, which she often displays, even while doing her duty without any issues. Because of her past with the Union, she is very sensitive to any suggestion that she might still be working for them in any way, especially given that the Union killed her parents. She is very dedicated to the gen:LOCK program, especially Dr. Weller.

In her RWBY-verse: Born in Vacuo, Yasamin Madrani joined up with a group of bandits when she was young.  Eventually, she decided that she had had enough and left, ending up in a city where testing for Dr. Weller’s program was occurring.  Without fully realizing what it was, she was selected for the program and taken to Atlas, where she learned to be a pilot and part of the Holon program.

For the last, but certainly not the least of my GL recruits, Val/entina Romanyszyn (listed like this because they are genderfluid and use both "Val" and "Valentina," depending on presentation):

From the wiki again: "They are a retired Russian special forces operator who thought that they were finished fighting. Valentina was involved in special operations in the Eastern European theater before being recruited into the Experimental Science Unit's gen:LOCK program."

Val/entina can be pretty cynical, as expressed when she states that she likes battles she's sure to win. They also believe that the Union will follow its enemies, no matter how far they run. Which is one of the reasons she didn't want to fight on the front line any longer; she only agreed to join the gen:LOCK program because she thought it was a purely scientific endeavour. However, once things really get going, she's deeply loyal to the people she cares about, especially the way they care about the rest of the GL team.

In their RWBY-verse, Val/entina Romanyszyn grew up in Atlas, where they were able to use the region’s advanced tech to enable their transitions as needed.  They also chose to attend Atlas Academy, where they quickly proved their prowess as a sniper.  Now they’re working occasionally in tandem with the Ace Ops, doing what they can to protect the city and Remnant.

Our last case study for the day is Leon August, voiced by Gray Haddock (who also voiced Roman Torchwick initially):

Once more with feeling, from the wiki, "Lieutenant Leon August is a character in Rooster Teeth's gen:LOCK. He's a Strider pilot and Vanguard squad leader" and also gen:LOCK compatible, though he's too old for the technology to be safe for him.

Leon is able to stay calm and retain his sense of humour in both combat and downtime situations, though he's full capable of relaxing and joking with his friends. However, when he's in the field, he tends to be no-nonsense and very focused on getting the job done, while also making sure to watch out for his allies.

While his RWBY-verse is under construction, it's highly likely that he'll be stationed in Atlas as part of the military, potentially having attended Atlas Academy previously.

So there we have it! A quick and dirty rundown of the non-RWBY characters on this blog. Hopefully this helps!
