#rw artificially romanced

[sharpilu]

Killsquad hypopups. i was gonna do a couple hypopup drawings but i only ever finished this one. training session with the babies <3 info on the pups under the cut

we're going from left to right here

The Burning Arti and Hunter's pup. inherited Hunter's weak body and Arti's...fire powder body???? anyways, i was thinking she could like, light herself on fire and shit, and her one eye is always on fire as a reference to both parents having a fucked up eye :] she's also the smallest pup

The Boomstick do you see what i did there. with the name. hehe anyways, Boomstick i gave Arti's fire powder and Spears', well...spears. since they have a mouth, they wouldn't need to eat through the spears. so they just...create fire spears for the fuck of it. maybe the spear creation would take a food pip per spear or smthn idk

The ??? i'm gonna be real here fellas i had nothing for Spears' and Hunter's kid. actually nothing. i just slapped together some features. i know nothing about this kid (also i couldn't find a shipname for Hunter and Spears so i made one. welcome Artificially Romanced)

please read!

pinning this until i get info on if people would read it because I actually want to make it so bad... my profile will be back later

gang i have a rw au idea [ shocker ]

inv infection thang. inv starts appearing everywhere and eventually starts basically weirdmageddon. all the guys have to team up to beat it [ umm during the great migration because i want gourm and crew to have to like. have a cool scene idk i have a really cool thing planned in my head

all the scugs will be in it. yes, truly all of them: even both nightcat and inv. yes even survivor and monk's unnamed sibling. yes even monk and survivor's parents. yes literally every scug featured in gourmand's outro scene. and more

what do yall think and what should i call it

it may be invenot based but it's not a crappost

past the keep reading is more details. i lot more. i rambled whoops

inv is less "haha dating sim" and more "im gonna ruin your life :) in the funkiest way possible! *does a skateboard trick and opens a pocket dimension*" "*puts on shades and suddenly reality is distorted* heheha!"

inv closes off the void sea ( probably pre story events or hunter would have already ascended ) so hunter surv and monk all are just like having to team up. surv monk happy family scene and hunter saving them from an inv clone or domething. yk the cool one in zombie apocalypse movies

monk and survivor are basically kids. again this is migration. so hunter is like their stepdad [ genderneutral ]

hunter cycles ending ( trying to avoid spoilers ) is probably inevitable. they might be able to meet pebbles to get it extended but I still don't think hunter will make the entire thing because there's no way this thing is >25 cycles long. sorry hunter ( you will be missed dearly /gen )

thought it would be sick if arti appeared too so i had to. extend her lifespan. also shes huge like. 2x normal scug size

spearmaster is genetically modified to be a messenger for who knows how long suns intended it to be so thankfully i dont think it's as much as a stretch that they're alive

saint is an eldritch being so they could probably mess some stuff up too

dont really. see how in the world rivulet could fit timeline wise ill be honest. they are literally the only one left out. ill have inv bring them in through a pocket dimension or something because otherwise there would be no ruffles and that would be sad

forgot to mention this but having so many attack oriented slugs just being the main cast without being together doesnt make much sense. so spear and arti are a team but they dont really get along or talk to each other much and also theres no firecracker sorry guys

ill probably be generally avoiding ships in this comic besides maybe some like enot shenanigans?? but i don't think ill really do much of that either because this isnt romance this is a bunch of rodents fighting a choatic rodent glitch god

the iterators exist too. tell me whether you want them off the strings or not. ill give you examples of what happens on either side starring suns

off strings: spearmaster and suns are the duo of all time and artificier is there too. she dragged pebbles along but he doesnt want to be any part of this

on strings: suns videocalls spearmaster a lot and cheers whenever they make a slight achievement

nightcat/watcher is probably gonna be part of the colony. theyre the scout

moon and sig will also definely be there, potentially innocence and wind too if yall want them. also maybe more itties idk. we'll see

rip sliver. because its your average timeline mostly sliver is dead ( rip )

all of the iterators if off the strings are actually terrible at combat and they cannot parkour so that would allow some funny moments. funny pebbles cannot jump to save his life or encouraging wholesome suns which do yall prefer

i find it funny how half the scugs are the cool one and then theres survivor monk riv and watcher. and then theres the iterators who are even more pathetic [ silly ]

sofanthiel's nickname will constantly change highlighting their chaotic nature. one panel they're enot then they're inv then they're paincat then they're sofanthiel then they're gorbo then they're blueberrycat- you get it

actually ill use a random number generator every time their name pops up. this is minimal priority but suggest enot nicknames.

current ones are: enot, inv, sofanthiel, paincat, thanksandrew, thanks andrew ( with a space ), gorbo, blueberrycat, ???, invenot ( one word )

if i make it i'll turn on scheduled posting for it and make sure to actually like. link throughout on like next previous first. if I have anything to say or elaborate ill post it in the comments

it would also be in a genuine artstyle instead of my little 10 minute lineless thangs. id line it and give backgrounds and stuff except maybe on April fools day

anyways yeah, what do yall think?

again what do i name it because i want to call it something cooler than enotpocalypse

[saffronstoats]

rw ship rant i guess? idk

you can probably convince me to like almost any rw ship but alternatively. you can also make me hate any of them [ actually. i have a love hate relationship with several. everyone is gay but also everyone is aroace. i dont know ]

i think you have to do more explaining for me to like it and idk if that's bad or not

slivermoon and sunstone are both funny to me and those are the only ones i've considered shipping?? but again the problem as above. they are gay but they are aroace

also mossy cobblestone is silly but also. in my head fp and nsh hate each other. not in a romantic way. they put up with each other because they both like suns. also more friendy than romance-y to me

slight edit: traffic lights is less meme-y and more like aw theyre actually kind of nice to each other but theyre still? more besties going through tough times than a ship to me [ again with everyone is aroace ]

the closest one i have to actually shipping is slivermoon but thats probably because we know basically nothing about sliver's personality idk

actually having them have a sibling sort of relationship but not actually be siblings fixes most of these? like. sibling esque lilypad instead. sibling esque sunstone. yeah. i dont think i can ever see ragequit as anything but a meme but yeah theres my hot take on rw ships

as for sluggies i used to mostly be an artihunter shipper but?? what? they dont even really feel like they know each other

the only relationship ive actually thought about nowadays with sluggies is artificier adopting surv and monk or alternatively gourm doing that. gourm and arti are not related or married nor do they even know each other

idk sorry for all the hot takes i just wanted to actually write my opinions down on this haha

my brain swaps between arti adopting everyone and arti is an irredeemable wreck so even her adoptions are on thin ice honestly. help. still using adoptive arti for enotpocalypse because it allows for some funnier scenes and also does not leave spearmaster to deal with two holograms and a beast capable of tearing down entire families. i do not think that would be good for them
