What are some headcanons you have about the mercenaries?

Striker

Is a Created stick.

He was made to help his Creator with art and animation.

His name isn’t actually Striker.

He is not very good at art.

His Creator owned a cat.

His Creator mistreated him.

He stole the tools on his toolbar from his Creator when he escaped.

One of the first sticks he encountered on the Netscape was Victim, whose rocket corporation was already in full swing.

Rocket corporation made Striker’s toolbars, they are integrated into his code. The only way to remove them would be to rip off his arms.

Striker was made with the line tool, that’s why his movements are stiff.

Saved Primal, Bit and Logo when they went after a major crime lord, earned their trust and proved his leadership capabilities.

Knows how to drive.

Primal

Scared her creator when she awoke.

Creator made many more sticks, Primal considered that her tribe/family.

When another human group came into the cave, they wiped out her Creator and their family. They also destroyed some of the other sticks. A few escaped with her.

She could run along stone surfaces, so could the other sticks which is how they escaped.

Numbers dwindled as years went on, weather, erosion, being caught by humans and considered threats or dangerous, eventually there was only her left.

Travelled alone for a long time, watched the world change.

Wound up on someone’s phone when they took her picture, escaped to the Netscape from there.

Becoming a bounty hunter just made sense.

Definitely one of the first sticks ever, and probably the oldest living stick.

Logo

Technically started as a digital piece, but didn’t awaken until printed.

Scared their Creator; Creator was worried about getting fired, and thought people might destroy Logo so Logo fled.

Logo can run across signs.

Can also run into ads, how they got into the Netscape.

Logo was avoided by most sticks for his strange appearance. Very lonely.

Accidentally helped Primal catch her target. Primal was grateful and didn’t treat him like a freak and Logo has been by Primal’s side ever since.

Knows how to drive.

Bit

The only one who has no beef with Creators and actually likes his.

Real name is Ballista, Bit is a nickname.

Was set free when his Creator’s project was completed.

Still visits his Creator’s PC occasionally.

Goes clubbing regularly.

Major flirt.

Probably the most mentally stable mercenary but that’s not saying much.

Was hired by Logo and Primal when they wanted to expand their business and take on more difficult targets.

Gets frustrated easily.

Does not appreciate the short jokes, despite the fact that the nickname Bit is a short joke.

New Helluva Boss episode came out and it's like a switch has been flipped in my brain. Because it is incredibly good

[shortbreadly]

well barbie and blitzo’s interactions killed me just as i expected, but i just want to talk about this:

we can see that barbie’s mad at blitzo for whatever reason, but something about this scene feels off to me. and i think i’ve pinpointed why

blitzo is no stranger to people being mad at him, in fact it happens in most episodes. of course some people‘s feelings mean more to him, such as maybe m+m, stolas or even fizzarolli, but he doesn’t shy away from defending himself and speaking his mind to even them. he always has some shit to say, and always sticks up for himself in his own blitzo way

but with barbie he doesn’t, he just stares at her with that sad little look of regret on his face. even in this scene:

blitzo recoils away from barbie. doesn’t defend himself. doesn’t argue with her. just recoils.

blitzo obviously feels shame and regret over whatever has happened between him and barbie, otherwise he would’ve stuck up for himself. however i also think he views barbie as completely innocent and out of the wrong regarding whatever happened, instead possibly blaming himself, due to one thing:

barbie was never in blitzo’s bad trip. striker, fizz, verosika, moxxie and stolas were, but not barbie. all of these people he views negatively (or has previously viewed somewhat negatively in moxxie’s and stolas’ case) but barbie is no where to be seen. obviously something has happened in the past with her as with the others, but unlike them he can’t bring himself to hate her for it

edit: just gonna throw it out there that blitzo recoils when barbie presses their mother’s choker. make of that what you will

i fully believe that people who see akira as his own character versus people who see him as a self insert play a completely different game

what do yall do when you hold hands with your boss

Hope a random question is ok, but do the mercenaries like throwing surprise birthday parties for each other?

A bit early but hope you have a good weekend!

Random questions are always OK!

The mercenaries and their birthdays…

Primal and Logo don’t know their exact creation dates, but they’ve assigned themselves birthdays based on their best guesses. Primal’s is February 21st, and Logo celebrates theirs on the third Friday in August (the 18th this year).

Bit knows when his creation date is: February 22nd. Striker knows his creation date as well, though he would not share it with the others (the only one who knows is Victim).

Logo is really the only one who might get a surprise party, with Bit as the main party planner. Primal is impossible to surprise (to Logo’s credit he did try back when it was just the two of them) and since Bit and Primal’s birthdays are right after each other, their parties tend to blur together.

So, I guess the answer is Bit and Logo like throwing surprise parties, but Primal and Striker don’t really see the appeal.

So I looked around a bit and if everything goes according to the plan (read: doesn't get canned), there's actually several projects coming 2025 and up I'm interested in:

behold a text post meme

[wazzi2ya]

That line in Merry Sinsmas that goes "I would travel every ring of Hell/Just to see if you'll be mine" has me thinking how Blitzø has indeed been to 6/7 rings and most of those trips were Stolas-related in some way.

Yusuke strikers concept (partially) based off this glitch that happens in the first hour of the game and never again
