Happy thanksgiving, drew this on my phone using ibisPaint. I felt humbled going back to my roots.

Macaque after protecting wukong and mk all of season 5:

[nightmarerodent]

Kombat kids and their first words:

Cassie: no one was really paying that much attention as she played with the others in the play pin but everyone heard her yell “I SAID NO!”

Kung Jin: His tiny little baby hands reaching for a steamer basket like it held pure gold. “Bao!” He yells, trying to grab a steamed bun.

Jacqui: Jax was playing with his infant daughter when she reached out to grab his face and happily yelled “Pa!”

Takeda: “C**t!” Suchin was the proudest mom. She was going to raise a badass kid. She will be bragging about this forever.

Frost: Never heard the story of her first words as no one cared to tell her and she never cared to ask. She could remember her earliest thoughts though. “Help”

Focus

patience/focus prompt

Oh gods

Filthy red crimson dripped from his nose. His body shifting and reshaping,swirling,and molding him like clay. His lungs are too tight to breathe,stinging,squeezing his innards. He feels like a balloon filled to brim with helium-he’s going to burst-

Imdyingimdyingimdying- 

Why is there so much blood?!- 

He crumples to the ground,heaving,red speckles dribbling to the floor.   

No-no-no! 

Clear droplets fall to the ground to the steady beat of his fading heart. He chokes,gold blinding him and his body shifts again. Tail wrapping around himself in mock comfort. Red stickiness finding its way smeared across his hand. 

Oh-Gods…

In a sudden wave of nausea he can’t help but let out a high pitched whine. A fragile,slow,whimper spiking pain through his throat. 

He crawls forward,straining every muscle in his body,crushing every bone. 

I-Mei? 

Pigsy? 

Mr.Tang? 

Anyone? 

His mind shutters to snail pace,and then he can’t remember. Floating in mushy clouds of soup. Squeezing and tightening he feels like the lid of a water bottle. Twirly-whirly something he can’t bare to describe, 

Then there’s red-just-so much red everywhere. The floor seems so tall-elongated in a strange outward way. Shadows stretching from his body,collapsing inwards.  

Focus! 

He scrubs and scrubs,why won’t it go away? He hums a random tune,of no particular melody. Staring blankly ahead,pinching his arms. He needs to stay focused-he knows. 

He can’t lose himself-cause if he does-if! 

He won’t 

No

Don’t think like that 

His hands are bloodied and bruised,wooden splinters sticking out from his palms. Painted smears spread across the wooden floor. 

Huh? 

“Ha-why can’t-I just!” 

Focus! 

Focus!  

Fo-!

A loud sickening crunch,floorboards caved in on themselves. Jagged wooden edges flipped upwards.

The bleeding still doesn’t stop

[desultory-novice]

...UH OH...

Just kidding as this is all very good stuff, Mechalor Anon! Can't draw it, because it's a lot, but I will drop some corresponding text/lore on you, based specifically on your "The HWC misguidedly brings Zero Three back in Planet Robobot" concept (with a touch of the sword/brush thing) because it did latch onto my brain!!

(This is the LAST major event I do in this doomed timeline though)(1)

[Planet Robobot] [Apologies AU "Snowflakes" Timeline] [Secret Boss Fight - "NULL v0.3"]

:Kirby enters the room: :There is no one there: :Suddenly, the whole building shakes: :A horrific scream, overlayed atop itself, is heard:

:A door opens and Susie rushes out: :It shuts behind her, then shakes with a thud: :Eyes downcast, she murmurs to herself:

Susie: "...What is that machine thinking...? Why would the Mother Computer...ask for something that awful to be...?"

:She finally sees Kirby is here and puts her business face back on:

Susie: "Ahem! You're back! And you've found our secret lab."

Susie: "Clearly, you don't appreciate the miraculous wonders of science and technology as much as some of us..."

:The door bangs again, interrupting her: :There is another piercing dual scream:  :Susie flinches at the sound and begins shaking:

Susie: "...I can't do this anymore." 

Susie: "Listen, think what you like about us being here, but I just need a little more time. I can't let anyone interrupt this!"

Susie: "My original plan was to distract you with our latest in wide-area suppression, fresh off the assembly line but..."

Susie: "...I can't go back in there... We excavated this dreadful THING out of your planet, so YOU handle it...!"

:The door behind her opens as she flees the scene: :Slowly, white sludge begins to spill out from the open door: :It rises into a burbling bubble with a single slit of a closed eye:

:The bubble then cracks right down the middle where the eye sits: :The split orb unfolds into two limp halves each with a smaller, half-lidded eye: :Inside each of the sphere halves one melted-looking half of two figures, a boy and a girl: :Each vaguely familiar figure has a single wing (one dark, one light) made of grasping fingers:

[BOSS: NULL v0.3] - Pause Screen

Of all the biological data the Haltmann Works Company unearthed from this planet, the Mother Computer seemed especially interested in this. However, it found it could not fully analyze it to its satisfaction due to the "unknown bond" sustaining the creature's core. It would ultimately deem the project a failure.

[IE: Star Dream is trying to understand Zero for its own purposes but cannot and could never understand the deep "love" that ultimately brought about Zero Three; just like it could not understand Haltmann's love and would delete it]

[BOSS: NULL v0.3 EX] - Pause Screen

Though Susie always tried to follow the mother computer's directives faithfully, she deeply questioned this particular project. When the directive came to "use" the creature in spite of the unhappy children's souls inside, it strengthened her conviction that Star Dream had to be separated from her father.

[In EX form, the sibling-goo is dark matter black instead of snowflake white; Noir's wing is blood red instead of corruption purple; their eyes remain the same]

NULL v0.3 plays out as a very unusual boss fight. It is somewhat timed, because v0.3 will damage itself with its "attacks," thrashing about. And if you leave it alone for long enough, it will kill itself. Or you can defeat it with regular copy abilities. Both of these lead to the "normal" boss fight ending, where v0.3 rips itself apart, both sides screaming as the white bodies melt away into nothing. 

However, like in Super Star, this boss will provide you with special, unique battle-limited Copy Abilities if you inhale the right attacks from it: "Dark Sword" and "Light Painter."

Attacking the "swordsman" side of v0.3 with the Dark Sword ability will make it attack you more aggressively. However, if you try to turn Dark Sword ability on the "painter" side, you will be met with a vicious, un-blockable counterattack from the swordsman side that will knock the ability out of you and cause it to swap sides again.

If you try to use Light Painter on the swordsman side, it will cower away in the background, ...guiltily... keeping its distance, however you can lure the painter side closer to you and reduce its aggression levels again by attacking the painter side with Light Painter.

If you succeed in the task of defeating v0.3 with proper use of the two copy abilities, you are rewarded with a different end fight cutscene, where the white body coalesces into a giant sphere once more before melting away, revealing Adeleine and Noir, looking as they did before, who then dissipate peacefully into sparkles...

...Man I want to make video games so bad...

AHEM! Here's Mechalor Anon's uncropped asks that inspired this!

Thanks for the appreciation and glad you liked what I did with Zero Three! Sorry I couldn't include Bandee in this more. I really did dig the idea of him using the paintbrush like a spear though!

-

PS: NO MORE HURTING THEM, OKAY? ^^ ; < message to myself

-

(1) I say this again to myself because after the "good" ending, someone out there is going to suggest, "Well, if they were purified they could come back in Star Allies! Maybe each of them sporting white hair! They could be a swap character, like the Mage Sisters. It would make King Dedede happy..." which... okay, sure, maybe yes!

Bu~t I have a huge backlog of stuff INCLUDING other Apologies stuff to do so I'm still declaring Snowflakes to be a "failed Noir" timeline!
