HE’S JUST A GRUMPY GUY <33333

i have such a love for characters who descend into madness or villainy out of deep, deep empathy. characters who fundamentally cannot cope with the cruel realities they find themselves in and blow up about it in spectacular fashion. fallen angel type characters with tears of outrage in their eyes. characters who break before they bend, and break so badly they splatter blood all over their noble ideals. every variation on it gets me so good

Click for better quality if necessary. Finally made my Narilamb reference sheets! I think I’m going to call this Au Fatal Faith from now on

Also shout out to the Narilamb fonts I made, really came in handy with this one (my handwriting is NOT great lol)

Edit: changed Narinder’s face a little because he looked goofy before

Something something my au version of post-purgatory Kal is permanently sick and unable to work, but he feels like he needs to be useful in some way or else the lamb will get rid of him. Struggles to make it to a sermon. Gets noticed, reassured, and praised all at once. Love wins.

Happy one-day-after-valentines-day.

I wanted to do my own design of the mane 6 (+ Bubbles), so here are the designs I did many months ago! I wasn't sure if i wanted to post them, but i really love how they turned out so its time to share!!

Note that I haven't watched FIM in YEARS so these are fully based on my memory, personal hcs, and design taste :"3 I'm just a longtime mlp fan in general and missed these characters so so much 🩷

So I initially had a very different idea for the extra member for this group - and I will still make that one too, once I figure out what look to go for - but I had an idea for my space crew's main story that goes beyond Stefan's situation, and also ties Nadiya into it better, giving her more personal stakes than just being the Captain.

Now she's not just helping her close friend with her goal, but she also has her own reasons for it. Also yes, Illya and Nadiya are twins. ALSO, I think I wanna give Nadi a cybernetic arm too now, that'd be cool - and serve a story purpose in relation to her brother...

IDK if he'd appear in the MW crossover bit of their story, I feel like it'd be a bit like dropping the final boss of a game to the beginning third of the story? At most, maybe Curly and Anya might sometimes see glimpses of him, as their minds would be more vulnerable and thus easier to access...

More info about Illya below:

Illya's skintone used to be the same as his sister's, and you can still see the healthier pink tone around his eyes.

He suffers from chronic babyface as his sister used to joke; despite being 34, he looks like he's in his early twenties; he was often initially mistaken for Ava's Intern by the patients at the ship for example.

He used to be the head medic for Nadiya's ship, but due to a major accident and a mental breakdown resulting from it, he was taken in for intensive care by a specialized organization.

It turned out this group was conducting unethical experiments and had clocked Illya as a prime candidate for their "Nexus" program; they essentially turned him into a reality bending cyborg against his will, and made his mental struggles much worse in the process......

He was rescued from the facility he was kept at by her sister's friend Ava Moreno a year after he was committed; this happened the same day he'd finally snapped from the trauma and mental strain, his unwanted powers going haywire and causing a lot of chaos and death.

This was the same place Stefan Wilk was kept as part of another project, and Illya in fact did meet him and even communicated with him a lot with his telepathic abilities, because he'd seen his sister's friend in his mind.

Illya was Cherry Yun's mentor figure, but she took over the medic duties fully once it became clear he's too unstable and dangerous to be taken back into his position. They could not get him the usual means of help either - like therapy - because his current state was just too volatile to even attempt it.

They'd need to find a way to first stabilize his powers as well as "return" his mind back to his body properly instead of being stuck in-between Nexus and "reality".Illya went to cryo willingly, realizing this fact.

However as his Nexus Alter wanders, he's begun to forget this and other details about himself, which has caused him to slowly grow bitter towards his former crew and sister.

Illya used to have similar personality to his twin sister Nadiya, being highly intelligent, clinical with tendency to bend the rules to his liking if he believed that benefited the end goal, being VERY good at his job and being very reliable friend/mentor.

However, unlike his sister, Illya was more neurotic, suffering from undiagnosed OCD that manifested most strongly with fear of "not knowing enough" and therefore having something horrible happen under his watch, causing him to study obsessively just about anything he was interested in, to the point he'd neglect his own wellbeing. (He did also have the more commonly known symptoms like level of germaphobia, obsessive need for order, etc)

While his body is in cryo, due to how his powers function, he is able to project himself into people's minds, or sometimes take over the ship systems, hence he's often called the "Ghost in the Ship" by the crew.

Nadiya's warning about eye-contact relates to the fact that this is how he gets into your head properly; the projection you may see is just bait, he sinks his claws much deeper via eye-contact.

This is due to the version of him existing outside his body, in the in-between dimension dubbed the Nexus, and he can manipulate things from there to an extend (though he's not as powerful in this ghostly form as he would be awake with his human-cyborg body)

The only member of the current crew that can't see him is Mara, being the newest member who never met him personally; he tends to ignore her for the most part and thus doesn't project himself into her mind. He might still prevent her from injuring herself occasionally by taking over some of the nearby systems or turning them off.

His ghostly version can still be dangerous and volatile, which is why Ava has told the crew to mostly ignore his presence if they notice it, because interaction with him could trigger a violent fit.

Of course this can backfire as Illya feels abandoned by the people ignoring him, so it is a matter of balancing act; they need to analyze what the ghostly entity's mood is, whether interacting or not interacting is the safer option.

The person he tends to be the calmest around is Cherry, his former apprentice. She is also the safest when talking with him, as she's not very likely to provoke an angry fit from him.

With Nadiya it is a hit-or-miss situation, as they were always close, but he was also envious of how calm and stable she was in comparison.

He likes to mess with Stefan's head a lot due to him being more susceptible for it, with what Ava theorizes is his warped, twisted way of trying to "help" him to gain more control over his condition by exposing him to it over and over. (This is not something Illya would do in his right mind, back when they were in the same facility his communication with Stefan was much kinder and level-headed)

He rarely appears to Matthew, as they didn't interact that much, and had primarily a professional relationship, where Nadiya considered Matt her friend.
