Another Lunter Comparison

While I am a Benlie die hard, I do get the appeal of the Bevin ship, especially due to it having more chemistry and better writing than Ben’s M/F pairings. I noticed it has some things in common with Luz/Hunter. A non canon pairing between the main character and a former adversary turned ally who have better chemistry with each other than their actual girlfriends. The enemy turned friend character was abused and manipulated by a cruel master who convinced himself that his actions were for the greater good.

It’s a ship that not everyone likes and many people prefer to see their bond as platonic or sibling-like but fans are allowed to like it and it does work for angst filled fanfiction or fanart. Despite one being a M/F ship and the other being yaoi, I can see some similarities between them.

18 servantis/kevin

For the kiss prompt meme.

18: ...as encouragement

"Get up."

Kevin tries — he really does. But no matter how much he strains, the muscles in his arms are too sore, too defeated, too weak to do much more than wobble pathetically.

He's covered in bruises and cuts and burns where he's been electrocuted. Sweat mats Kevin's hair flat to his skull. He has never been so exhausted in his life — he's so tired that it hurts. Kevin can't feel his legs and every muscle in his body pulses like one huge bruise.

He lays his head back down on the ground and groans.

There's the sound of footsteps approaching. Kevin can't see Servantis' face, but he feels the man sneer.

"Don't be lazy, Kevin. I gave you an order. Get up."

"I can't," Kevin mumbles. His fingers curl into frustrated fists.

He wants to get up. He wants more than anything to impress Servantis — the person who gave him so many opportunities, who sees him as more than just a monster — but he simply can't.

So, Derrick J. Wyatt has gone on record saying that cerebrocrustaceans do not have a feud with the galvans over which species is smarter and Dr. Psychobos is the only one who cares. However, in Alien Force, we clearly see Ben as Brainstorm getting insecure and competitive around Azmuth to the point of coming off as passive-aggressive and bitter. Assuming this isn’t just yet another retcon, this implies one of three things:

Cerebrocrustaceans do have a distaste for galvans, but very few of them hate galvans enough to actively want to hurt and/or kill them.

Rather than hating galvans, cerebrocrustaceans hate not getting to be the smartest person in the room as they tend to view anyone more intelligent than them as a potential threat and thus their first instinct is to assert their dominance over them (much like how many species of Earth crabs are highly territorial), meaning that how Brainstorm acted around Azmuth is how the average cerebrocrustacean would act when in the presence of anyone who knows more about anything than them regardless of species.

As an alternate take on the idea that they’re highly territorial just like many species of Earth crabs, cerebrocrustaceans are naturally competitive but the vast majority of them view outright hostility as beneath them, it’s just that Ben’s own competitive streak as a human mixed with cerebrocrustaceans’ competitive instincts resulted in him acting like a dick and Dr. Psychobos is an insecure megalomaniac who can’t stand the thought of anyone being better than him at anything.

I really, REALLY like the idea to give cerebrocrustaceans a little bit of territorial behaviours, haha! Kinda reminds me of how many fields of science have their own in-groups and are potentially a bit stuck up to outsiders, which seems to fit the egocentric coded smart guy niche they fill in terms of power and personality. Especially so since it contrasts with the ‘literally has no in-group’ isolationist galvans that love and value working alone (especially so given Azmuth didn’t go crazy on Xenon) to the point where it is both an honour to be someone’s assistant but also comes with the risk of being neglected.

Which Myaxx, not being a galvan, is more noticeably pissed off at Azmuth for that over Albedo who’s only really pissed off at Azmuth because of Ben (a child) wields the Omnitrix.

Still though, since galvans seem to be heavily involved with the Plumbers their eh, isolationist behaviour when it comes to science is mostly ignored in favour of their outcome and the stereotype of them being cold is overlooked in favour of seeing cerebrocrustaceans as being hotheaded in comparison. Up to and including the assumption by the galactic audience that cerebrocrustaceans have a feud with the galvans even if galvans do not return those feelings.

I think somewhere in the tags of one of my posts I had the idea that a galvan with a cerebrocrustacean assistant works better than a cerebrocrustacean does with a galvan assistant because of the strengths and weaknesses of their work flow. If you mix in the solitary nature of a galvan with the territorial nature of a cerebrocrustacean, alongside the previously mentioned methodology that galvans invent things for long term while cerebrocrustaceans invent things fast and efficient, a galvan assistant would complain that their carefully considered first drafts were butchered, dissected, and stitched back together by their cerebrocrustacean boss, the leading cerebrocrustacean complaining in turn that their assistant is a maverick that either attempts to control the project themselves or keep findings to themselves making the workspace unable to communicate to the understanding of another. The majority of complaining a cerebrocrustacean assistant would make with their galvan boss would be the aforementioned neglect to anything other than their work, the fact that having only two active scientists imposes strict working conditions galvans are perhaps more used to, and the fact that despite all these complaints they are simply by default peeved that their leading galvan is smarter than them. Honestly the main reason the galvan doesn't have any complaints to list is that, like any assistant, they slightly forgot to note anything; if everything is working as optimally as it can, there is no need to complain.

Keep in mind this is a general rule lmao- given the territorial behaviour of cerebrocrustaceans, while they may be stand-offish towards the out-group, they work much more efficiently within their in-group; critique, even unwarranted, is an open invitation for communication in in-group workspaces… even if other species including galvans may tire of such ‘interference’. Likewise with the solitary galvan, with no in-group everyone else is part of the out-group, and criticise all you like but an out-group is not going to change if you list off all the things you dislike about them; why make a complaint at all if the out-group does what you need them to. This stuff just gets brushed over because it’s the galvans that work closely to the Plumbers not the cerebrocrustaceans, so Plumber propaganda and presence influences the galactic audience’s understanding on who’s the ‘smartest beings of the galaxy’ while the only notable cerebrocrustacean doctor, Dr Psychobos, goes about the universe saying ‘oh how he hates that hedgehog frog’

Oh, I think I got carried away!

Old Man Shopkeep in the style of Ben 10: Omniverse.

(Character model used: Proctor Servantis)

[kariachi]

Who’s up for some angsty daemon au ficlet? One of the lowest points in Kev and Annelie’s relationship, back when they were with the Rooters.

Warning for some self-harm and Servantis.

~~

They stared at each other from opposing corners of their room (“cell” “room”), Kevin curled up on their cot, Annelie a large gecko pasted nearly to the ceiling.  Their bond felt tight, a contradictory and confusing upset at both the distance and the closeness churning in their gut.

It was the closest they got to each other any anymore.

Their bond had swung wildly like a spring doorstop these past few years. Gone from the desperate closeness of the neglected and alone to refusal to even speak with each other after the Omnitrix. From a unified front in Incarsecon to empty, broken silence as they wandered. From wary comfort to… this.

(“We’re going to do better.”)

(“These aren’t requests, they’re orders.”)

(“This is for the greater good.”)

(“Everything with Ben and Cassie was your fault, and you know it.”)

She hung further out when she could, stretching the distance between them until it ached. Sometimes so far their breaths became shallow and stuttering. Enough the others would watch them with concern, waiting for the moment they would surely come back to each other. One that that never came.

(“We’re not kids anymore-”)

(“Our friends are in a cage-”)

(“Things are going right for once in our life!”)

(“Why won’t you listen to me?!”)

The Proctor had suggested Separating at one point. It would be easy, to just walk across one of those spots in the Null Void that daemons couldn’t enter and be able to get farther away from each other than ever. For the first time in months there’d been some indication that Annelie still gave two shits about her other half in the way she’d turned to a bellbird and screamed at the idea. Too far away for Poppy to do anything, Servantis had ended up throwing a chair at her to shut her up. She still hadn’t forgiven Kevin for not attacking him for it.

Separation wasn’t suggested twice though.

(“They’re going through all this for our sake-”)

(“They think they own us-”)

(“I can’t ruin this too.”)

(“Don’t make me hate you.”)

Neither would ever say who turned their back first; could ever say, the move was so synchronized. Annelie counted the marks of age and wear in the corner. Kevin pulled the covers over his head, eyes squeezed shut.

(“It’ll all be worth it in the end, I promise.”

“Say that when the pain stops.”)

Tomorrow wouldn’t be any better.

The entire Rooters Arc in Omniverse was just Servantis reacting badly to people calling him out on his shitty Osmosian RPF. 

[plumbersnullvoid]

A Brief History of the Null Void

(( ~ OOC: This is the fanon history of the Null Void as it pertains to this blog and the tie-in fan fiction “Elevator Monologue” which can be read on AO3. ~ ))

...

The Null Void is a pocket dimension that exists outside of, but right next to real space. It was first discovered by Galvan explorer thousands of years ago. Galvan leadership decided that the best use for this new discovery was as a penal colony. 

Criminals, both native born Galvans and alien alike were sent to the Null Void to live out their sentences removed from the rest of society and real space as a whole. 

For some, this was the worst fate. Banished to another dimension, never to see families or friends again. Set adrift in a harsh and unforgiving landscape. 

While others saw it as an opportunity. A way to make their own life in their own world. To start anew with no history or baggage to weight them down. A literal clean slate. In this new world to settle. 

And settle it they did. 

The Null Void settlers were responsible for the main agricultural advancement in the Null Void. 

Light is scarce in the Null Void, and fresh water even more so. Still, the Null Void settlers managed to yield a crop with enough nutritional value to sustain themselves. After several harvests, they managed to prefect the growing process enough to produce a surplus that could be traded with others. 

But not everyone sent to the Null Void was as self-reliant or community oriented as the Settlers. There were still always those whom would rather simple take rather than trade. 

As a solution to this problem, the Galvan leadership, the ones who’s decision it was to use the Null Void as a penal colony in the first place, created the Null Guardians. 

Artificially created lifeforms to act as watch dogs and protect the Settlers trying to make a new life for themselves. 

As time went on and other planets and races discovered the Null Void, they started sending their own criminals and degenerates to the pocket dimension. The Null Void became a melting pot of different races, languages, cultures, and customs. Differed codes of ethics, and concepts of morality. 

Eventually, it became too complicated for the simplified minds of the Null Guardians to maintain and the Plumbers had to step in. 

They set up a prison in the Null Void. 

Incarcecon.

No longer should planets or Plumbers just be throwing criminals in the Null Void casually. Now defendants must be tried, judged, and sent to a prison where they could be kept away from the now-natives of the Null Void that just want to live their lives unmolested. 

Incarcecon was a way to bring some version of order and safety to the Null Void. All run and maintained under Plumber purview. 

But even Plumbers are not above corruption. 

It was discovered that Incarcecon was built on top of a natural deposit of a unique mineral native to the Null Void. When ground down into a fine powder and inhaled, it would induce visions, hallucinations, and dreamsttates. Such a drug would sell very well on the intergalactic black market. A prison guard by the name of Morgg recognized this and staged a coup. 

He took over the prison. Killed a number of inmates during the initial fight. Replaced all the other guards with robots loyal to him. And installed himself as Warden. In control now, Morgg converted Incarcecon from a prison into a forced labor camp. Using the existing inmates and any new inmates that were teleported in as slaves to mine his product. 

This went largely unnoticed and unchecked by the Plumbers back in real space until Kevin 11,000 (whom was then known as “Ultimate Kevin”) returned to Incarcecon to exact revenge on Morgg for killing an inmate close to him. With Kevin came the Hero of the Universe, Ben 10,000 (whom was then still only “Ben 10″). Events unfolded as events involving Ben 10,000 usually do. The corrupt Warden was deposed and the inmates took over the compound. 

Incarcecon still stands today. But it goes by the name the Free Fortress and the same inmates who once called it a prison now call it “home”.

Around the same time as Incarcecon’s slave labor, another Plumbers project was going on in the Null Void. 

The Null Void was so full of different species and races, different languages and dialects, different cultures and customs, a project of Cultural Sensitivity began. A team called the Rooters and lead by a Proctor ranked Plumber by the name Hector Servantis. 

They were the first Plumbers unit to be based in the Null Void. 

But they were not without their fair share of corruption.

Not long after the formation of the project, Proctor Servantis learned of a powerful piece of Galvan tech, arguably the most dangerous weapon in the known universe... and this advanced technology was given to a child. An Earthling child of the age of ten. 

Human children that young should not be given that kind of responsibility. Human children that young were still learning right from wrong. In the hands of a child, the Omnitrix could un-make the universe. 

Servantis switched his mission goal from cultural sensitivity and mediation to something entirely different and not at all in alignment with his original mission statement. 

In the end, not much came of the Rooters plans. 

Eventually, the Magistrata was made aware of what Servantis was doing and confiscated his base, stripped Servantis and his Rooters of their ranks and privileges, and banished the team to the same Null Void they had abandoned. 

No longer Plumbers, the Rooters became just another band of criminals sentenced to live out their remaining days in the Null Void.

And the Null Void was not as safe as it used to be. 

Not to imply that the Null Void was ever “safe” to begin with. But, it had increased in dangers in recent years -mainly since Ben 10,000 (then “Ben 10″) began throwing his enemies into it without formal trial or sentencing. 

Most notable of these dangers are the Mutant To’kustar, commonly referred to as “Way Bads”. 

The Way Bads continue to be a problem, as do the Rooters that the Magistrata left to wander the Void unsupervised. 

In an attempt to solve these new issues, a new plan was implemented. Not another prison or a covert team to operate autonomously, but a proper Plumbers base, same as any outpost in any star system in real space. 

A Plumbers Headquarters here in the Null Void. 

Plumbers HQ-NV.

Currently, the base and corresponding Plumbers officers are running under the leadership of Magister Rook Blonko, a Revonnahgander from Revonnah. 

Magister Rook is the former partner of the famous Hero of the Universe, Ben 10,000 and has lots of experience mediating difficult situations. 

However, there is a rumor floating around that another change in the Null Void’s Plumbers leadership is in the works...

WIP for the third installment of my recreating old Ben 10 fanart series. Here’s Brainstorm, Doctor Psychobos, Proctor Servantis, and some other Cerebrocrustaceans! Trying something new with colored pens. Thinking about trying some monochrome or analogous themes this time rather than mixing colors.

Thought I’d show the progress on my latest fanfic

[aureolusfirewrites]

Just something for a new au I thought of listen to the song Panic Room by Au/Ra

When they were 8 Ben accidentally gets sent to the null void after an accident when he was playing with one of his grandpa's "plumper tools"

Max takes Gwen and Ken on the road trip to try and get their minds off of Ben's dissapearence and pressumed death, Gwen finds the omnitrix in the process.

Meanwhile Ben has managed not to die in the null void and Proctor Servantis finds him and makes him one of the amalgam kids. Ben has been there longer than Kevin but doesn't hold any jealously when Kevin is made team hero. He thinks Kevin is like his brother until he defects and joins Gwen now Ben sees Kevin as a traitor. And his vendetta against Kevin only gets worse after finding out that Kevin helped throw the mutant to'kustars into the null void making his home even more dangerous.

Ben grows up with the rooters to be, surprisingly, an extremely happy laid back kid. But make no mistake the conductiod human hybrid can fight. He's friends with all of the plumbers helpers Pierce being his closest friend after Kevin's betrayal. Peirce likes to call Ben "sparks" or "sparky"

When the mission to destroy Gwen Tennyson and Kevin Levin fails the first time when they're 11 Servantis wipes Alan, Manny, and Helen's memories. He keeps Pierce for Ben's sake but changes his memories so he doesn't remember the other amalgam kids. As for Ben it's hard to replace memories that never existed considering over his 8 years in the null void he's pretty much forgotten that he was actually from earth in the first place. And sending him in as a sleeper agent wouldn't work due to Kevin having intact memories, Gwen asking questions, and Max recognizing that Ben showed up out of no where.

Gwen doesn't know Ben is indeed alive because Kevin never realizes that they were the same kid. Leading to Ben spending double time in the null void.

All in all everything is pretty much fine until Gwen 10 recreates the universe and Kevin heads back into the null void to confront the rooters. Gwen shows up to help and finds herself fighting someone she never thought she would see again and someone who doesn't even remember her as his cousin.

Devlin Levin Ideas

To be clear, most of these ideas are not tied to any specific Ben 10k/future universe that we have seen; rather, these are all ideas applicable to any universe about Devlin. Many of the ideas will likely be incorporated into my own personal version of the character.

Origins

Devlin is Kevin Levin’s son. After Devlin’s appearance and before Gewvin became a thing, the basic story was that Kevin 11,000 had Devlin with a random, unnamed woman, and got put in the Null Void not long after. This backstory leaves a lot of blanks, and would not work for every version of Kevin. So, here are some alternate Devlin backstory ideas (some of which are shamelessly based off the headcanons of others):

The Clone Theory: someone (probably Proctor Servantis) cloned Kevin. This would allow for Gwevin without Gwen being Devlin’s mother. I actually really like this option for bad/crazy-Kevin-who-gets-redeemed, because I can imagine a power mad Kevin saving Devlin being what reignites the Tennysons’ faith in his ability to be saved himself.

Gwevin Version 1- Weird Osmosian Biology (I do not mess with that “Osmosians are not actually aliens” retcon btw): Kevin spawned Devlin all on his own, possibly with Gwen’s DNA, but maybe not. This preserves the possibility of the Tennyson family not knowing about him, opens up the possibility for him to be related to them or not, and works equally well with any Osmosian version of Kevin, good or bad.

Gwevin Version 2- Kidnapped Kid: Devlin is Kevin and Gwen’s kid, and was kidnapped when he was quite young. By a crazy Kevin? By an old enemy? By someone who just wanted an Osmosian for some reason? This backstory has a lot of room to play around in. Kevin could go crazy and kidnap his own kid, go crazy because someone kidnapped his kid, or he could remain sane. Having Devlin pop up years later is prime drama material.

Gwevin Version 3- Raised by Gwen (and maybe Kevin): this one is fairly self explanatory

Other Ideas

I think his full name is Devlin Kwarrel Levin

Devlin’s eyes look dark blue in his first appearance, but Kevin’s are black and Gwen’s are green, so I prefer one of colors those for him. Green, if he’s Gwen’s son.

If Devlin is Gwen’s son, I don’t think he inherited the Anodite Spark, personally.

If Devlin was mothered by a random woman from a Saturn colony, she was probably a criminal, and may not have been human. Devlin clearly takes after his father; his mother could easily be, say, a vulpimancer who runs a small organized crime ring. Devlin did not seem eager to return to his unnamed mother in his first appearance.

[kuphulwho]

So @kariachi has been doing fic based on the concept of the Rooters’ documents leaking, and I just had to contribute with some angst.

Kuphulu stared blankly at the screen with glassy eyes. There he was. Azahotep, Aza, his Aza. He recalled Viktor saying that he and Aza had been separated in the Null Void at some point, but he never could have imagined just where he ended up after that. It was a video of Aza being questioned by Servantis.

His fists clenched at the disgusting display. The Proctor grew increasingly impatient with Aza, all while he frantically signed that he couldn’t speak, and he just wanted to go home. Most Anur natives could see this, but it was obvious that Servantis understood nothing. Frustrated, Aza grabbed the artificial hybrid’s pen and clipboard and proceeded to write. Once finished, he showed him what he had written, to which he repeated it out loud as he read. Aza nodded, confirming his message.

“My sincerest apologies, Azahotep. I am not familiar with Anurian Sign Language,” he ‘apologized’ in a nauseatingly nonchalant tone. “Please, do let me make it up to you. I’m sure I can get you back home.”

The face that Aza made... It was a face that Kuphulu would never forget. His face lit up hopefully, but it quickly became clear that this was only false hope. Within moments, the sparks flew. Aza had been electrocuted by the Proctor and was now convulsing over the table as his lackeys restrained him from behind. Momentarily, his body went limp, and he almost looked dead. But then he stared up at Servantis with pain in his eyes, partly from physical pain, and partly from the pain of betrayal.

“Take him away,” Servantis coldly commanded, never once breaking eye contact with Aza. There was no emotion in his voice. And that’s when the footage abruptly ended.

The whole time, Viktor had a hand over his mouth, and Crüjo’s ears drooped. The Transylian wore an expression of guilt and sadness. If only they had not gotten separated in the Null Void... Would things have turned out differently? Would this none of this have ever happened to Aza? He and the Loboan looked at their Thep Khufan friend in confusion as he rewound the video, pausing where Aza’s face had lit up, when he actually looked happy.

Kuphulu touched a hand to the screen, a finger dragging across his partner’s cheek. It was then that tears began to roll down his cheeks, choking on his own voice until he succumbed to his emotions, sobbing hopelessly as he buried his head in his hands. Crüjo could do nothing but whine at the sight, pulling his friend to his chest. In an instant, he was grabbing onto his shirt, his tears quickly soaking it. Unsure of what to say, all the Loboan could do was reassuringly rub his back. This was the first time that he had ever actually seen him cry, and he was at a loss for how to properly react. He briefly looked to Viktor with an face that said, help me.

“Um...”  Crüjo finally began. “If it’s any comfort, the documents said that he was among the escaped. He’s probably still out there somewhere, alive.”

Kuphulu looked up at him with hurt in his eyes, the tears returning as he pressed his face into his shirt again. Viktor frowned, placing his own hand on the Thep Khufan’s back.

“Everything will be alright, Kuphulu,” the Transylian assured him. “Whatever happens, know that we’re here for you.”
