Watch my drawing quality get worse as my lack of sleep increases

[dem0nguy]

Ive been infected by the AU bug (Ive got like 5 different AUs for MB now help—)

HOWEVER, this does give me an excuse to ramble about said AUs >:3

So how bout I ramble about the one I ever-so-conveniently drew art for?

MUTANT BUSTERS STEAMPUNK AU :DDDDD

Ima be honest, I originally created this just so I could put the sillies in fancy outfits. But then I added lore…

(The outfits in question:)

(Before I start ima just say that none of the characters go by their aliases, bc it just wouldn’t make sense here (and like, their names are cool and get no use in the show, they need use >:/ ))

So Jim(Sheriff) and Ryan live in a poor rural town in the middle of nowhere. Ryan works as a blacksmith, and Jim is an aspiring inventor (he’s not very good at the inventing part… just the ideas.)

Ryan wants Jim to learn how to be a blacksmith like he is, because it’s a reliable job and he doesn’t see Jim going very far in his inventing career.

Obviously, Jim doesn’t listen to him.

On one particularly boring day, an aspiring entrepreneur/inventor rolls into town. He introduces himself as Max(Shooter) Kojima, and says he’s looking for someone to help jumpstart his business with him. Jim quickly volunteers, but Ryan stops him, and forces him to come home.

Jim, however, is a persistent little bitch. So he sneaks out at night and joins up with Max; who gives him a prototype bionic arm as a gift.

Somewhere along their journey, Max reveals that he stole a powerful source of energy contained in a gem (*cough* MORPHONITE *cough*) from the lead entrepreneurs, Wart and Verruca, and plans to use it for his own inventions.

Jim is honestly so awed by the gem that he doesn’t care if it was stolen or not.

(At this point, Ryan has realized Jim is missing. So he sets out on a mission to find him)

Unfortunately, Max and Jim were not the only ones after the gem. Vegan-Su and BP steal it from them, so the two set off on a mission to get it back.

When they finally confront Vegan and BP, they explain that the gem was created by their father (Dr. White) and was stolen from him. So they were trying to get it back. But Max and Jim don’t care, and just as they’re about to walk off with the gem; Alexander(Brutux) steals it from them. All four then decide to work together to get the gem back.

Alexander works for Wart and Verruca, and was sent to go find the gem. But he doesn’t actually know what it is, nor the importance of it. When Jim, Max, Vegan, and BP catch up to him, they explain that the gem was created by Dr. White. Alexander then proceeds to fanboy about Dr. White and join the group.

(Jim and Max were gonna steal the gem back, but now they’re in too deep to get out so yk….)

(Also unrelated but Jim and Max are gay for each other bc you don’t just run off with a man in the middle of the night and NOT fall in love with him.)

The five start on their way to Dr. White’s place, just before they reach it, Jim gets a letter. The letter states that Ryan has been kidnapped by Wart and Verruca, and if the gem isn’t returned to them, he will be killed.

So they change course, and head for Wart and Verruca’s business place: Panic Mechanics (I’m so good at naming things/j) They make the trade for Ryan (who thoroughly scolds Jim, but is thankful for being saved.) Then unsure of what to do next, they head to Dr. White’s place.

(Dr. White is kinda like an inventor with questionable ethics and a weird way of doing things. He’s relatively well known, but his unpredictably doesn’t make him “famous” per se. His books are what most people (including Alexander) know him for.)

When they arrive, Dr. White explains that Wart and Verruca will try to drain all the energy in the world using that gem, so everyone has to come to them for power/inventions. (Capitalism, yay)

So they head right on back to Panic Mechanics, just in time to stop Wart and Verruca’s plan, saving the world. (AND THE GAYS GET TO KISS >:D)

That’s pretty much all, thanks for listening to me ramble! :3

His body had been this way for years. Unnatural. Monstrous. Broken, even.

But he’d gotten used to it. He’d gotten used to the pain. He’d almost accepted that there wasn’t a cure. He could deal with the physical pain, and how much looking at his body made him feel wrong. He could deal with it, if only barely, because his friends were with him. Vegan, who had been through the same things he had (if not worse) and was able to understand his pain. Even though neither of them wanted to talk about it, he took comfort in knowing that he wasn’t alone.

Shooter, his only other friend, was there to distract him with his dumb jokes and video games. He was good at sneaking around, and was quite literally the breadwinner of the group. He got distracted easily and was hard of hearing, but he was also the only person who could cheer him up on a bad day. Without the two of them, Sheriffs world would be a lot darker.

And now he was going to kill them both.

The mutated parts of his body were glowing in the same way that cursed stone glowed- he could see the light shining through his chest and arm out of the corner of his eyes. But he couldn’t stop to stare at them. He couldn’t pause for breath, no matter how tired he was.

Because he was hunting.

Against his will, his body was searching for his friends. He knew what would happen when he found them. He would sink his teeth into their throats. They would scream and cry out and beg for him to stop, and he would try his best to save them, but his body wouldn’t listen.

This was terrifying. The most scared Sheriff had been in years- he hasn’t felt such heart-pounding fear since he was a teenager in war for the first time. He has, unfortunately, killed people before (such is essential in war, even if you stay at the base), but that was different. They were the enemy. He didn’t know them. He could pull the trigger and wash away the guilt by convincing himself that he was doing the right thing.

But his friends- that was different. He didn’t want to kill them. He wanted to scream and shout and cry at the thought, but of course, he had no control over his mouth. He was going to kill the only people on the planet he still cared about, and after it, he would be trapped in a body he had no control over for the rest of his miserable life. He would stay as nothing more than a puppet forever.

He focused all his thoughts into getting his legs to stop walking. Something he’d taken for granted all his life was now out of reach. He knew that there was no way for him to save himself now. His fate was sealed, just as it had been since the start of the apocalypse. His only hope now was that his friends wouldn’t be doomed with him.
