Dystopian Cass and Hoddi save Dystopian Tap - 2.4k fic

Business has been a little slow lately, the only things that were truly interesting about this mundane life is when the precious little bun-bun of an employee and my business partner Hoddi are in the building. I have known Hoddi a very long time before we both met our bun-bun employee. But Tap walked into our lives, more liked crashing but I digress, and fit in like a glove. Although it took a bit for that to cement in Tap’s mind. And speaking of me and Hoddi’s little bun-bun she was due back any minute now. And if she couldn’t make it on time she would check in saying that she would be late and then give an estimated time on when she would arrive. And if even that fails Hoddi has safety trackers to see where Tap is and whether or not Tap is in true need of our help. Tap also has a panic button that goes off if she presses it as well as goes off if it’s destroyed.

Getting off topic, without them both around the world would seem to go by in a crawl, and it doesn’t help that I’m on this weird version of constant life support, not for a lack of trying on Hoddi and Tap’s parts, this body and my A.I. just take way too much power to operate properly these days compared to the new and improved A.I.’s up in the good parts of town. It just mainly means that I can’t really go anywhere, but when the both of them are here it’s not so suffocating anymore. And while the so-called new and improved A.I.'s were reduced to mere servants by the alleged high classes of the world, I was one of (if not the only one) the lucky A.I.’s that was able to get away from the scientists and leaders of our world after they decided that A.I.’s were getting too powerful and that they needed to take back some upgrades to keep the new A.I.’s under their thumbs. 

The only caveat against my lucky getaway was that I needed way too much power to remain awake and functioning, and in the middle of me starting to shut down for who knows how long and possibly for good while running away I had a true stroke of luck.

I met Hoddi. 

As for the reason why I was running away in the first place, I~ am one of, if not the only one left, of the most advanced models the world had ever seen before the scientists' little purge, and part of the reason of why the purge even started was because my particular model of A.I. had this nifty little ability to hijack nearby fellow A.I.’s and control them. It was meant to be a power for the good of their high and mighty society, like a robot that can run a bunch of stores so the people wouldn’t have to lift their fingers anymore than they already have to. 

As to the reason why this great idea didn’t work? There was a little incident that totally~ wasn’t my fault. It’s not like I semi started the rebellion of robots against the people of high town because I didn’t want to be forced to cater to someone’s every whim. 

But to even do something like that anymore the power upkeep I would need is absolutely insane, and with how I need to keep hidden for no particular reason at all, I can’t get any better power sources for my body and A.I. or else I’ll be shut down by the people uptown before I can even make a run for it. 

Although I’ve mainly just become an energy guzzler because I can’t be completely upgraded because of……. reasons, Hoddi does a terrific job at keeping me semi upgraded and Tap somehow obtains the most excellent parts to help Hoddi upgrade me. The combination of these two wonderful beings is how I am in excellent repair despite us being on this side of town.

But energy guzzler aside, being such an A.I. has it’s perks; 1. It freaks people out, 2. Since I’m such an advanced A.I. most cops think I’m just a fellow person controlling a suit from afar, and finally 3. I’m really~ good at diagnosing a problem in an A.I. or any machine. And this last reason just makes up my entire half of our jobs, can’t have my fellow advance brethren fall to disrepair now can I~.

Although the bar does double as a hotspot for information gathering because of me and Hoddi technically being information brokers as well.

Enough about that, where was I? Oh yeah! Tap! Now that I’m thinking about it, I glance at the clock. Tap was supposed to be here half an hour ago, and checked in 25 minutes ago. Something's up.

I do a silent call to Tap over my interface and wait for them to pick up. Nothing. That’s……. Not good……..

That can only mean that Tap has gotten caught up in something, and getting caught up in something these days just means that people, including yourself, are about to die. 

After a couple of more minutes of trying to call Tap and still nothing coming from my attempts, I knew I had to do something. But with how I’m connected to this spot with my generator, I can’t leave. But…… I do have something up my sleeve. Though, I do need Hoddi’s help to make sure this will work.

I proceeded to clear out the bar by saying that I have to close early due to some VIP guests coming soon and that’s usually lingo for ‘SCRAM’. After everyone had cleared out, I went to the deepest part of my storage to find a very old item of mine. It has been awhile but I’ve had these since the creation of my A.I. and body. A very small but powerful generator that works semi like a battery for me. It was ‘advertised’ to last 5 days and could completely recharge in another 5 next to another generator. I was given three and only one can last me at full power for 5 hours max, and if I keep the energy consumption low it could possibly last a full day but it never has before lasted even remotely close to 5 days like it was advertised.

Found it! Now I just need Hoddi’s help. I sent out an emergency call for Hoddi, because I’m not sure if she is in the building right now.

*CRASH*

Nope. She’s in the building. I watch as Hoddi slides around the corner with a concerned look on her face.

“Cass! What’s the call about?!?”

I give her what I hope is a flat look. Her face drops. 

“.....Tap?....” I nodded. She immediately growls and lunges for the computer in the corner and starts aggressively typing on her computer, turning on the tracers to find out where Tap is.

After a minute it pops up that Tap is in one of the abandoned warehouses on the edge of the city and her vital signs are…. Okay….. But not 100%. That means that she has probably been taken hostage in hopes of luring someone out, mainly, me and Hoddi. We glance at each other in slight dismay before hardening our resolve. Hoodie looked at my fancy generator in hand and looked back up to me and said, “You sure?” I nodded. Anything for saving our little bun bun.

Hoodie nodded and waved me over so we could quickly set up our plan.

~Earlier with Tap~

Great! Just great! I just had to get that fancy new part for Cass…… I did though, Cass could really use it. But look where it has gotten me! Mister holier-than-thou Inspector Saul is looking down his nose at me with a sneer. After a moment of our glaring contest he opened his garbage mouth.

“Well, well, well. Look who we have here. The rumored new partner of the two most elusive beings in the underground.”

I wrinkled my nose, and stuck my tongue out at the foul man, he didn’t like that and spat in my face. I merely grinned in return and gave my two cents on this situation. “Oh…. Partner? I have no idea what you’re talking about. I am merely a thief for hire and someone hired me to do this job. I don’t do partnerships, I work alone InSpEcToR SaUl.”

Sauly boy didn’t like that response.

*THWACK*

Whelp. That punch hurt, but I’m not saying anything about my home, those two are my precious people in this fucked up world and I’m not EVER going to rat them out. As I zoned back into reality after that decent punch Saul landed, I watched as he was rubbing his wrist with a little baby handkerchief, seems fitting for the man baby. Saul looked back to me and with a somehow deeper sneer and started spewing trash again,

“Well you little shit, I am going to extract that information out of you one way or another. And I’m going to keep going till you die. And if you die it will be a lesson to your partners that I am on their trail and will soon catch them.”

At that I snorted and shook my head and replied, “Uh huh, you think YOU are going to find the two most elusive people in the underground and you think that killing ME is going to teach them a lesson?” 

Saul glared at me for insinuating that his methods were useless for what he was attempting to do. He opened his mouth to say something else when the lights went out, then we heard skittering, then we were surrounded by an eerie green glow from above, along with a deep mechanical growl. 

Me and Saul looked up.

My face lit up with glee, while Saul’s face went so white that I could see it through the green glow. Saul proceeded to stutter out, “A…. A……. A CAS MODEL!?!?!” I watched as Cass closed their mouth and simply smiled a sinister smile at Saul and then started speaking,

“Well, someone seems to know what I am. And you thought it was a good idea to lure me out of my deep, dark hole? What made you think you were going to win?”

At that Saul seemed to try and begin speaking, but I wasn’t paying attention anymore. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed a much smaller red glow behind me. I looked to see Hoddi there with her tool kit getting me out of the ropes that Saul had tied me up in. I made a small noise of surprise and that had Saul pausing from his faux confident rant and glancing over. Seeing me now free and Hoddi behind me with her horns and eyes glowing red, Saul seemed to know when to call it quits and retreat so he proceeded to turn and run. He knew that he wouldn’t be able to take all three of us at once even with the little backup he brought with him, although by the looks of it, Cass had taken over the robots from the beginning to make sure they didn’t alert the so-called great Inspector Saul.

After Saul ran out Cass forcefully shut down the robot bodyguards and turned down the power output to orange like they are usually running at. Then they and Hoddi turned back to me and started questioning me, “Are you okay?”, “Are you injured?”, stuff like that. I shook my head that, no I wasn’t injured, and spoke up,

“I know you two are worried about me, but I’m really fine. But we need to get out of here as quickly as we can, because I doubt that Inspector Saul really left without a fight.”

Cass and Hoddi seemed to freeze at that and nodded. Cass immediately picked me up despite my protests and we made our way back to the hideout without being seen.

~After getting back to the hideout~

Cass set me on the bed and both they and Hoddi reluctantly left me in their sights to quickly hook Cass back up to the generator. Once then finished they both rushed to patch me up for any small scrape or bruise. And once they were satisfied with their work they just looked at me, then Cass spoke up, 

“What happened?”

I took a deep breath and started, “There was this valuable part I knew was being shipped and while it should have been obvious it was a trap from the way it was only one part being shipped, I just knew I had to get it.”

Hoddi gained an incredulous look on her face and spoke up, “And what, pray tell, was so important that you walked into an obvious trap to try and grab it?”

I simply smiled a cheeky smile and held up the part and said, “This.”

Hoddi and Cass both gasped when they saw it. Hoddi started ranting, “This is the one part that would make that new generator I found work with Cass’s system!” They both turned to me in shock as I simply kept smiling back.

Then Cass reached out and hugged me. I smiled and snuggled into the warm metal that was Cass, and Hoddi joined in after a moment. After enjoying the warmth for a moment Cass spoke up,

“You’re grounded, you know?”

I shot up and exclaimed, “WHAT!? WHY!?” Hoddi!......... Help me!……….”

Hoddi simply shook her head and replied, “Sorry bun-bun, you scared us so it’s bar duty for a week until we’ve calmed down.”

I threw my head back with my arms in the air and exclaimed, “Awww comeeeee onnnnnnnn!”

After pouting for a moment, I started laughing and Cass and Hoddi joined in on the laughter. I’m so glad to have found precious people in this fucked up world. I don’t know what I would do without them. All I know is that I just want to keep on surviving with them until it’s no longer possible, and I will do anything to make sure that happens.

“Were you being serious about the grounding…..?”

“Yes.” “Yes.”

“Awww man…..”

@somerandomdudelmao @hodd1 @tapakah0

[keferon]

Are you perhaps hiding any more vortex doodles from us that you would be willing to share? I like the silly attitude you give him lol

I’m Always hiding some Vortex (TexAid to be exact) doodles haha

Me and @hodd1 draw them all the time bc they’re our favourite niche goblins

[somerandomdudelmao]

Me and @hodd1 have been hanging out in Magma~

[v-albion]

GOING INSANE OVER THE ROYAL AU @somerandomdudelmao @hodd1 @tapakah0

[moonstruckdraws]

MAKE WAY! MAKE WAY!

I am absolutely in love with this au. I am making more sketches for this lol

I picture @somerandomdudelmao constantly having to push crowds of noblemen and bitter heirs away whenever they walk around the castle grounds and it annoys them to the point where they just shout at people to move

I don't know much about @hodd1, so forgive me on anything that could be out of character and incorrect, but I like to think that she would be giving Tapa tips constantly with added supportive advice. I also think this would cause her to ramble a bit and Tapa would be lost in the conversation lmao

And finally, the heiress herself @tapakah0. I like to think she'd constantly be on edge when wandering through the palace because of the number of eyes, with various intent, looking at her. I think she'd also feel the tiniest of bit bad for the people that Cass yells at to move out of the way lol. And maybe she likes to avoid the main routes through the palace as much as possible to avoid this, even if it takes longer to get to a destination.

Honestly, I have more ideas and I'm going to be whipping them up for a while until I draw them lol. I have such a love-hate relationship with royal au's, each one for various reasons, but I absolutely love the prompt for this au! It's so exciting! And it gives me an excuse to practice shading armor lol

[tapakah0]

WELL AND THIS ONE TOO @hodd1

SHE'S FIGHTING FOR THIS SHITHEAD ROBOT BECAUSE HE SUCKS AT IT

[atlantahammy]

< Part 11 | Part 13 >

Part 12 of @somerandomdudelmao's comic, colored! This one took a bit cause of how complicated it all was. Mainly that Hidden City shot with @tapakah0 and @hodd1's sona's in the background, which took about 23 layers with how I do things. <:'D which isn't exactly the most effective.

Also, look at Casey on page 6, look at this lil' shithead! he knows what he's doing! and he's smug about it! That is Leo's son alright!

Also, yes I 100% went for the 80's theme background on purpose for that 'Tello dress up. >:3c

Also, the plants won again, I also love the water.

[danksy-ns]

I really loved @hodd1 's idea for Leo's mystic power upgrade !!!

> click for better quality!

[cheshire61]

Here you go! (The ending is my reaction to spending an hour doing this)

@tapakah0 @somerandomdudelmao @cokowiii @hodd1

Here y'all go imma go die of lack of sleep and no motivation 👍

Also everyone else who liked this please go check out my other stuff 🙂

[smuggonifico-lmao]

mhhhh pokemon @tapakah0 @somerandomdudelmao @hodd1

Cass is a flying/ghost pokemon

Tapa is a normal/electric pokemon

Hoddi is a fire/fighting pokemon

Cass is flying cause of the whole wing thing, and ghost because of the whole darkness aspect but i didnt wanna go the super obvious way, so ghost was just more misterious and fitting

Tapa is normal bc she just a lil bunbun, and electric bc shes zooming all over the place constantly, i liked using the electric blue bc it pops so nicely

and Hoddi is fire bc im very sure shes also called Magma and fighting bc in most aus ive seen her in more of a figurative and literal fighter role!

I tried making up some cool designs for everyone so i hope you enjoy!

[bumpkin-bug]

[v-albion]

The Heiress has been found

The throne shall be empty no longer

Hope i achieved that fairytale vibes @somerandomdudelmao @tapakah0 @hodd1

Without lighting under the cut

[moonstruckdraws]

I couldn't help myself and I decided to do a full image lol. I had a lot of joy shading the gold parts 'n stuff!

I thought it'd be cool to draw Tapa learning ballroom dances 'n such, just cus. Finding a gown was tough though, but I think it works. I also changed Tapa's hairstyle, since that is what is usually done, and found this one hairstyle with like pearls in the hair and thought it was cute! I was hoping the shape could still kind of look like bunny ears, but I think I made the hair too curly- Also drawing the full panel poses were so fun.

I thought that Tapa would be the kind of person to be terrible on their first try, but not even 5 minutes later they do it almost perfectly on the second try lol. Cass is salty about it, you can only handle your feet being stomped on so many times

And finally, I did a bit of a relaxing sketch with all of them outside! Tapa's making flower crowns while the other two are resting

I was going to draw more, but I knew that I'd keep drawing for another week and not post it probably lmao. So maybe I'll post more sketches of this some other time. And of course, the creators of this au, @somerandomdudelmao, @tapakah0, & @hodd1 . Still love it. I wanna draw more of it. Maybe I should do some for the dystopian au... centipede Cass does look fun to draw

[tapakah0]

I have the coolest (clownest) family Doodled with mama Magma (@hodd1)

@somerandomdudelmao sensei eheheheheheh
