yamara and irene are a funny duo to me because they respect each other deeply as scientists and are about as close to friends as coworkers can get without becoming real friends, but good god do they bicker. i dont think theyve ever wholly agreed on any approach to any scientific conundrum they've ever faced. unfortunately they do great work together, and have a lot of the same curiosities, so they're constantly working on the same projects. one minute they're barely not shouting at each other over the best practical applications of some aberrant space fungus and then 20 minutes later they're throwing papers in the air and shaking each other by the shoulders because they got approved for funding on some operation
#what if we were renowned scientist coworkers who were much more alike than we were different but too stubborn for either of us to notice#and despite our numerous disagreements the place where one would expect resentment to form is instead occupied by deep seated respect#even if we'd rather eat dirt than admit to each others faces that the respect almost veers into admiration at times#au: meteor shower#au: ms v2#oc: yamara#oc: irene#rainworld#iguess#lorepost#<-? my definition for that tag is loose#oh yeah also even though their debates look pretty heated sometimes its just because its mentally stimulating to them both#theyre not really angry#these geeks are friends in their own strange way they just dont know it yet

Meteor Shower V2
The ISS Burning Horizon is a collaborative research and anomaly investigation ship funded by Piory Technologies and The Pursuit of Complete and Unchallenged Knowledge, managed (predominantly) by humans and slugcats respectively. Two renowned scientists, Dr. Irene Mosley and Yamara "Six-Times-Triumphant," argue about the possible causes of an irregularity on a pre-FTL planet they've been assigned to monitor. Behind them stands Bodie, an adolescent Scavenger apprentice who only got the job because of the stereotype that Scavengers and Slugcats are by default educated on each other's cultures due to their shared home planet (they're not). He brought the piece of information that caused the argument and now the scientists are too distracted to notice him, but as a rule of etiquette he is not allowed to leave until dismissed.
#au: meteor shower#au: ms v2#there's two different versions of meteor shower#the first is where my stellaris fic universe intercepts rain world at some time pre-pebbles collapse#the second is this one where slugcats (and scavengers) go on to become a space faring empire and join the fic as sophonts#my art#rainworld#rain world#rainworld au#rain world au#rw au#stellaris fic#stellaris#i feel so bad maintagging this but organization must prevail#why has this been in my drafts for over a month??#oc: bodie#oc: irene#oc: yamara

a fancy slugcat i made for an au, though i think midway through drawing this the original premise of the au escaped me a bit
#and a test for a new way of coloring. i like it‚ it looks better and its quicker#au: meteor shower#au: ms v2#my art#rainworld#rain world#slugcat#slug cat#rain world au#rainworld au
