alien max au

but really it's more of a healing daniel post-singapore au wherein daniel is not doing well, at all, and stumbles upon stranded extraterrestrial pilot max.

pt 1. the crash

in his isolation daniel picks up the habit of going on late night drives on the long winding roads off his farm. one night, while humming to his late night mix, a bright light nearly fucking blinds him. some sort of flying object is now no longer doing what it's meant to and crashes no further than 20 metres next to daniel's car. half in shock, he hits the brakes, clambers out the car and runs as fast as his feet carry him to the crash site. it's a weird looking aircraft, real futuristic military shit.

he can't see much, most of the lights went out but he can make out a figure inside so daniel pries the dilapidated top off with all his strength. he find a young man inside, wearing some sort of flight suit. it's really fucking dark and daniel feels around for the buckles to free the guy from his seat. he's fully unconscious but when daniel puts his finger under the guy's nose, he feels a faint gust of air.

thank fuck.

he shakes the guy, no response. he sees some liquid gathered on the guy's hairline. he can't be 100% sure it's blood since it's weirdly reflective looking, almost like molten steel. maybe some sort of hydraulic leak? he slightly slaps the guy's cheek in the hopes of waking him up but no such luck. checking his phone, of course he has no fucking signal. zero fucking bars. fucking vodafone.

pocketing his phone and huffing out a breath, daniel grabs the guy under his armpits and heaves him over the edge out of the cockpit. he's lighter than he looks, so daniel half carries, half drags him back to his car.

once daniel has managed to maneuver the guy into his passenger seat and retaken the driver's seat on the other side, he flicks on the overhead light to take stock of the situation. he needs to bring this guy to the hospital asap.

the guy's suit seems to be intact with no visible injuries, so that's a start. he has short dirty blonde hair, an angular face, strong nose, and pointy ears. everything seems to be in order apart from the bloo- wait a second. pointy ears?

daniel blinks a couple times, checks again. yep still pointy. against his better judgement, he reaches over the middle console and pokes his finger gently against the pointy end. before he knows, his arms is being twisted downward and he hears a hissing noise.

before daniel can react, his head is being smashed against the driver's door. when daniel opens his eyes, the guy is hissing at him, sharp and pointy canines bared. his eyes look kind of funky too. oh fuck, just his luck.

"wie ben je?" the guy says.

"sorry?" daniel manages.

"wie ben je?" the guy repeats. "waar ben ik?"

"sorry, dude. i don't know what you're saying. i'm daniel. dan. danny, whichever works for you. i found you. you crashed, with your plane. if it even is a plane. i don't know. i'm just trying to help, okay?"

"hulp?" he asks.

"help, yeah," daniel confirms.

the guy , can it be considered a guy (?), lets go then, shakes his head.

"help me?" he says, voice rising almost comically at the end.

"sure yes, that's what i'm trying to do. are you really hurt? are you in pain?"

"pijn?" the blonde asks. daniel only nods in response.

the other man only wipes his forehead slightly but the bleeding daniel saw earlier seems to have stopped.

"nee," the other man responds.

"alrighty, i should bring you to the hospital either way to check you out." daniel responds, unsure how much he even understands. daniel is pretty sure he's speaking danish or something.

"hospitaal? nee. nee!" he responds. he grabs daniel's sleeve then with both of his gloved hands. he sends him a pleading look, his pupils blown wide in the dingy light of daniel's car.

"fine, ok, fine. I'll bring you to my house then. and then we can figure out what's next."

daniel turns the key in the ignition and the other man startles at the noise.

daniel breathes out slowly to gather his bearings. okay, this might be his dumbest idea yet, bringing this strange guy home but he's very recently run out of fucks to give so.

after a few minutes of silence, daniel can't take it anymore and turns the radio on. the 4am news start playing.

out the corner of his eyes, he can see that the guy seems fascinated with everything in daniel's car. the seatbelt, the mirror above his seat, the touchscreen in the middle console. her runs his gloved hands over everything.

at the sound of the newscaster speaking, he perks up and starts fiddling with the collar of his suit. the presenter is just launching into a story about inflation shrinking my half a percent when daniel's passenger lets out a surprised noise.

"english, ah!" he says.

"sorry?" daniel asks.

"yes, i can now of course communicate easier. my language equalizer must have been a bit damaged in the crash. thank you for helping me. it was of course very rude of me to attack you earlier. i was just startled by you touching my ears. it is not customary where i'm from," passenger man slash alien man says, suddenly in almost perfect english.

"uhhhh. yeah sure, no problemo. what language were you speaking?" daniel asks, at a loss what else to say.

"i think you call it dutch. i picked up a transmission in that language upon entry into your atmosphere and the equalizer got stuck on it for a moment. apologies." he says.

"entry into the atmosphere. okay, stop hold up. what does that mean? are you a pilot? an astronaut. oh my god, were you on a secret mission that failed?" daniel asks.

"of course not. that would be ridiculous. it is of course not secret. i'm part of the planetary exploration programme in my system. some solar winds in yours caught me off guard and altered my trajectory. i was never even meant to be this close to your planet. we are under strict orders to not interact with planets inhabited by sentient beings below tertiary evolutionary status but it's too late now."

"below tertiary, what does that mean! ay!" daniel exclaims.

"don't worry about that. i think you guys are due for a status update, you're at least a 1.5 now." blonde alien man says.

"this is crazy. i think i've gone crazy. officially cuckoo. the sleep deprivation has done me in," daniel mutters.

"daniel, i think you need to calm down," his passenger says sagely.

"don't daniel me! i don't even know your name!" daniel says indignantly.

"i'm mx.v331," alien man says.

"mx- what the fuck. that's not a name, that's a serial number. you need a proper name, dude. i'll just call you max, alright?"

"sure, daniel," max responds. it sounds a bit like danyul.

"nice to meet you, max."

Funky Diamonds - It's My Game (1997)

[luxlumenexe]

In my artist era again (joking)

Anyway, have this funky, futuristic Starlight Express OC I have come up with!

Took 24 hours and 30 minutes total drawing up this goobie so I am a tiny bit proud of this

His name is QU3NT1N and he's supposed to be a yardmaster for the RP server I'm hosting!

Inspiration for this is a bit of a mixture between the costume designs of Starlight Express Bochum and Starlight Express London

(Base by mellon soup because I couldn't be bothered struggling with anatomy)

ARTISTS WANTED! 

We’re making a new book filled with pulpy sci-fi illustrations based on classic artworks (pre-1800), and, as always, LGBT and POC inclusive <3

Applications open March 25th at noon - the application will NOT be available before that time and will be removed after apps close. HUGE shout out to @ Nukeillustrate for this absolutely stunning piece, lovingly borrowed from “And They Were Monsters.”

The application will NOT be available until that date - we will post it here, instagram (nova_mali), bluesky, and tumblr (novaandmali). The application will be open for five days (March 29th) or until we hit 1000 applications. Please be sure to set an alarm and get your application in ASAP - we will not be able to take any applications through email, dms, or after they close.

A tentative schedule:

Results emailed by April 3rd - everyone will get an email! Sketch due May 15 Final work due June 15 Kickstarter runs July 1-31

We are looking for 50-60 artists (who MUST be 18+ years old by April 3) to join us to create a piece of digital art and/or merch. Traditional art is also accepted if scanned/photographed at a professional level.

We're looking specifically to increase the diversity of our artists, both in regards to race and gender - we want to be including all kinds of voices. Same thing with our art - we're looking to increase the variety of cultures, body types, and disabilities represented.

This is a PAID job. We’ve paid in the range of 200-300 for similar projects in the past, based on a set contract amount plus anything left over after production and shipping, split between everyone. Example: $150 in the contract and $100 extra per artist share. The additional amount will depend on how successful the Kickstarter campaign is.

I’ll post more later this week but first and foremost, get ready to go looking for interesting classical art to re-do into pulpy sci-fi! Your app will ask you what you’re thinking about creating. This is not a final answer but we want to know what vibe, what era, etc what you’re thinking about. 

We’re asking for art pieces that are pre-1800. I want you to really get digging and find some epic cool old stuff, particularly from more women artists and artists of color. Non-Western art is very very much included in our scope of work - we can’t wait to see your ideas!

I know older art tends to have weird people or weird perspectives - that doesn't need to translate to your final art. Just get funky with where you're finding inspiration! We will discuss this in more detail once we’ve hired everyone.

We really want to play with the idea of taking something very very old and make it very very futuristic - it should be funky and fun, and of course full of delightfully gay art <3

I’ll post exactly what questions the app will entail later this week.

The application will include things like: a link to your portfolio (instagram and twitter are NOT accepted as a portfolio) and an idea of what art pieces you’re thinking about and how to transform them.

We also ask for a short artist bio, like twitter style - short and sweet. Please don’t talk down about yourself or your skills - talk yourself up! Make me excited to see your art!!

About us: we’re two non-binary lesbians who really love cats and gay art. We’ve enjoyed our work as a queer publishing house and can’t wait to do more! Some of our previous works include classics but make it gay, And They Were Monsters, and Cover Me Queer.

Check out our work at www.novaandmali.com .

OOOOOH MY STAAAAAARS Space Riders looks so cool!! Do you have any other thoughts or ideas you would like to share with us about it? I see funky future stuffs and it makes the brain go brrr (Also, what DogDay poster were you referring to?)

The inspiration is VERY futuristic and sci-fi! My main ideas is that it runs like a Saturday morning cartoon: episodic, problem solving, gives space facts, and villains of the week dynamics.

As for the poster

It would be this one!

Could I request hcs of reader with an Iron hands who is a gentle giant and loves to battle against other trainers ( like nemona and penny) but arven is always on edge around the iron hands.. always thinking that it could hurt someone else like the other area zero pokemon hurt mabostiff. Reader and co tries to convince him that that this one's diffrent and would never do that to anyone?

((Generally fluff.. it doesn't need to be that angsty))

I love Iron Hands fr fr so thank you for this <3

My main one (who I affectionately named Raiden) is a tera raid powerhouse, but besides that I just,,,love my funky metallic futuristic Hariyama

.......

You often wonder if your Iron Hands had some kind of glitch in its system...

Because it's simply the sweetest fighting/electric type machine you've ever had the honor of capturing.

Its default expression is pretty much like "^^" 24/7.

When outside its pokeball, it's such a gentle giant towards the smaller Pokémon--whether they're on your team or out in the wild.

It absolutely loves comparing hand sizes with everyone (especially you, even though it knows very well that its palm size surpasses every single human's).

And of course, Iron Hands likes the thrill of battle, being all charged-up to fight whoever challenged you both.

Nemona herself is always eager to battle the Paradox Pokémon she witnessed you capture firsthand.

Penny gets a little nervous sending out her Vaporeon or Umbreon, knowing they'd get clobbered by a thunderbolt or drain punch easily.

But even outside of battle, Iron Hands is a kind and gentle soul around her Eeveelutions. They like to play around in the field, so they don't bear any ill will towards it.

The only person who feels genuine fear around it is Arven...and for good reason.

You saw it the moment Mabosstiff and Iron Hands stared each other down at one of the school's tournaments, with you taking one turn to boost its attack....while your friend remained frozen on the spot, suddenly unable to utter a command to his buddy.

He ended up running away, and the match was suspended, with you and the girls chasing him down to find him at the lighthouse.

Iron Hands is just stumped, confused as to why he looked so angry at it.

But you, Penny, and Nemona knew exactly what was up.

He was just scared of it hurting Mabosstiff (or other people) and making him weak all over again.

Of course, Arven was still traumatized by what happened during his first time in Area Zero--and being ambushed by a group of Iron Hands before you went up to the time machine certainly didn't help matters.

But you reassured him that your Iron Hands was nothing like those wild ones.

It was kind, loyal, and you've trained it well and understood each other...even though its origins remained shrouded in mystery (you had to lie about it being a Hariyama in a cool suit, but it took no offense to that).

The girls also agreed that it was good and patient in battles, never overdoing any attack.

Still, it's gonna take Arven some time to fully trust it, especially in a battle with Mabosstiff. So you just set up picnics and allowed Iron Hands to interact with his Pokémon, getting to know each and every one of them.

You even encouraged him to use the sponge on its metal plates, giving them a good shine.

With time (and more exposure therapy), he'll be comfortable enough seeing Iron Hands always at your side whenever he's making sandwiches or asking you for advice on his newest recipes.
