📻 with Ben?

In response to this little ask game I reblogged.

ADHGDHGSA... SO.. UH, funny story, Ben USED to have like a song or two (mostly stuff teen me found when I created him, that had nothing to do with his story), but one song got nuked and the other song got reshuffled onto Alex (because lyrically and thematically it fit him better).

HOWEVER, there IS a song on Alex’s playlist that references his relationship with Ben (… that totally counts, right?)…. Okay, fine, it’s more of an Alex song, but IT’S ALL WE GOT, SO,,,,,,,,, (one day I’ll stumble into a proper Ben song). 😭

Anyways, the song is Give Me A Sign by Breaking Benjamin (…. aha, yes, ironic I know).

While the original gives me fun visuals for the main story, this cover has a lot more emotion in it (and it’s also kinda my “Alex has an emotional breakdown” song, but again, this ain’t about him… ok it’s kinda about him…)

Because of sabotage from a traitor in their group, Ben nearly died while being created. His development was put to a halt and he had to be salvaged with machine parts (hence why he’s a cyborg). Alex didn’t choose to clone his deceased friend. It was simply the consensus of the group he was working with. Still, Ben nearly dying brought back the same painful emotions, and he took the attack especially personally. Between fighting his own declining health and working a cure for his son Lewis, protecting Ben from their secret traitor was just another battle he had to fight.

SOME (SORTA) ART FIGHT ASSETS I DID RECENTLY IN ANTICIPATION FOR NEXT YEAR!! I'd like to get some more proper art depicting character dynamics that I like so they're easier to translate for people that want to attack them. I doubt I'm gonna add a ton of new characters this year, so I'm trying to focus on that when I draw my tried and tested old favorites. <3

Another set of OC theme songs! I had to take a break from these to do art fight in 2022. The top two were drawn in 2022 while the bottom one was 2023. I have a feeling I may do more of these from time to time (because I like drawing them) but I got pretty burnt out trying to finish the ones I started.

Drawn primarily for toyhouse, but I should really try to post them elsewhere. Still drawing lots of Alex but we been knew this. Been revisiting Ben a little too.
