While I’m more confident with my edge highlighting, I KNOW I can improve and definitely will! Practice makes perfect after all!

The Awesome 8Q is one of the best and most simple mechs of the succession wars- a massive brick of heat sinks slathered in armor and armed with three particle projection cannons to pound anything in sight flat with caged lightning. When lostech was rediscovered and the double heat sink became a thing of less than myth and legend, every Awesome pilot in the inner sohere knew exactly what sort of new ride they needed

Only for Irian BMU to created a accursed 9M instead- too hot, too fast, too fragile, too many randon ssrm-2s the lostech AWS-9M is everything wrong about TRO:3050 in a nutshell. It took IBMU and Technicron Manufacturing *eight god damn years* for someone to stick their head out of the drafting room and realize all every Awesome pilot wanted were some god damn freezers an an extra gun. When they did, though, it was *perfect*

Brace yourselves for what will surely be a big and impressive fight...

Or not, I guess. I assume that's bugged, but we won't question a godsend when we get it.

I imagine that the "press unit to the back of the throat to inject and clamp inside the base of skull and thread ultrafine wires through your brain" part of the mechlink installation process is... uncomfortable, to say the least.

At long last, Kwahu feels properly like himself for the first time since he's existed. The Jones boys are one step closer to being properly identical! <3 <3

Kwahu's first mechanoid!!!

Please imagine if the bros stayed the same teeny tiny size they were immediately post mutation, but were still super powerful regardless.

There's a unsung hero of The Mechs Fandom I feel I must address. If you've searched up The Mechs or Mechs' lyrics, you'll have seen a video by TheVoidSings probably. We'll, THEY'VE DONE IT FOR EVERY SONG. They're super awesome and if you know about them, just share this around for the other mechs fans who don't!

Just refreshing Ao3 now and again until the fics where its Jayce and not Viktor who gets hurt and Viktor has to deal with the interesting moral dilemma of what to do with his boyfriend partner. Use the hexcore to save him? What if it kills him like it killed Skye? But what else has the power to pull him back from the brink of death? If it stole Skye's lifeforce and its bonded to Viktor can he use it to reverse the effects and breathe life back into Jayce?

Mostly because I adore fics where the whump is reversed. And Viktor being forced to contemplate Jayce's life? When their whole hextech project was lowkey a research project into trying to save Viktor's life? Viktor's always been the sickly one, Jayce has been a bastion of good health, the idea that Jayce would be the one dying whilst Viktor is without a scratch (relatively speaking) is just unthinkable.

(Is this because I like the idea of Viktor managing to put Jayce in some sort of stasis whilst he uses the hexcore to become the mech-messiah in a sort of bizarre Mr Freeze/Nora Freeze situation?

Yes. Yes it is.

We could have Viktor cold and unfeeling because of the hexcore obsessively trying to fix Jayce because he remembers loving him but just can't feel it anymore. So he'll heal the lowest of the low in the Undercity, he'll bring about Glorious Evolution, and maybe if he fixes Jayce, this man he remembers loving, maybe he'll remember how to feel that love again.)

This is gonna be such a niche thought but idc

The mechanisms and arcane crossover...... chat.... chat can yall hear me......

Hey everyone!

Now that we’re gathering up for the operation, I’d like to re-open my services for a limited number of custom jobs! If you’ve got a mech and you’d like that mech to change, I can see what I can do!

Given the facilities on board a jump ship and the actual timeline of our transit, I can handle up to a Class D refit.

This means:

If I’m swapping in a weapon it’s better that it goes in the same spot I pull one out—takes me twice as long if I have to repatch the armor around it

I can swap heat sinks! At least the type…I do hope you have them on you, though, all I brought was a couple of spare parts for myself

I can’t rebuild your chassis from scratch. This means no swapping to Endo-steel, no TSM if you didn’t pack it, and (unfortunately!) no CASE.

Look, I can swap your armor type but that’s a full armor strip and rebuild and that’s a lot of work and most importantly a lot of man-hours. I mean I can try but I don’t guarantee anything!

This will all go faster and I might be able to work multiple jobs at once if anyone has support staff they’re willing to direct to me.

Here’s hoping we all get to drink to this when it’s done! And remember to bring CASE

People tend to only make the mistake that being inside PPC minimum range is "safe" *once*

However the pilot is getting rather "handy" with that battlefist.

im bored, so you know what you get? the mechanisms as birds. but specifically ones native to here, where i live, specifically

Jonny is a cowbird to me. ive said that before i think. nest parasitism is the closest thing to... his whole thing with parental figures that youre gonna get when it comes birds. i have more thoughts there but im leaving it at that. and cowbirds are the only obligate brood parasites here (there is two species of cuckoos but they mostly raise their own eggs). so hes a brown headed cowbird. + somwthing something cowboy cowbird

The Toy Soldier is a loon. have you ever seen a loon? everytime i see a loon i think theres no way thats a real bird. but it is. theyre the uncanny valley of birds to me. and it and loons both have beautiful voices. considering its vocal chords, red throated loon makes the most sense. ive never actually seen a nontaxidermied red throated loon in real life, but they do winter here. i will also accept anything else from my bird uncanny valley. anyway red throated loons also live in britain which is important since the toy soldier is very english. common loons do as well but thats slightly less relevant

Marius is definitely one of those birds with elaborate showy mating rituals. so a prairie chicken or a turkey off the topa my head? out of the local ones. yeah definitely a greater prairie chicken since those like. are well known for their mating dances. fun fact prairie chicken mating dances are called booming. so in some places prairie chickens are called boomers

Drumbot has to be a crane. just because he played the robot in the song based off the crane wife folktale. anyway hes a whooping crane. wait no nevermind sorry cranes who i love very much apparently pigeon hawks are called merlins in europe. so hes a pigeon hawk now. sorry dude you just lost like 4 or 5 feet of height

Nastya is a blue jay because they r blue, smart and can use tools. traits Nastya shares. idk im tired i cant hink of anything better. or shes any bird that are also in russia. so like a snowy owl r a great grey owl? idk why i can only think of owls there are other arctic birds

Gunpowder Timothy is some sort of duck. why? vibes. lemme think... american black duck. not taking questions.

Raphaella is hard because i have thought of her as so many birds. for. somewhat obvious reasons. she could be a raven, because of odin. if you subscribe to the headcanon that she was icarus, she could be a waxwing. for the pun. great tit because she- nevermind those are introduced >:(. etcera etcetera. just imagine any bird. good job! that is her. thumbs up emoji.

Ashes is an owl just because the word for a group of owls is a parliament and i couldnt pass up a dumb pun about their hobby of politics. not sure if thats funny. which owl? uh barred owl. sure.

Ivy was extremely hard simply becajse i cant thinj of hwr as a bird. chickadee sounds about right. or maybe woodpecker? yeah no woodpecker. they have about the same color palate (red, black & white. no grey sadly.) not pileated tho she doesnt need to be that big. woodpeckers evolved adaptations to avoid getting brain damage from all the hitting their face into hard objects. redbellied woodpecker methinks perhaps

Mr. 'I paid for the whole heat bar'

[pushing500]

He's oddly convincing for someone so bad at talking to people.

Lmao poor Xina. She's having a horrible time with the only two people on the planet who literally could not care less. Drink some coffee and walk it off, Xina. Good job.

And just to rub it in, Randy Random decides to make the day that much better for Mechi and Kwahu. They deserve it, after everything with Brandy and Mechi III that's been happening.

No relief for our unfortunate creepjoiner Xina, though. Poor gal.

Of course, Randy can't make things nice for us all the time. A hostile mech cluster will definitely spice up that little corner of the map for the next few days until we get around to dealing with it. I wonder how quickly the boys can research mortars...?
