#storm hawks Finn

[brainrotgoverner]

I'm bored; what is your most out of pocket headcanon for storm hawks? A.K.A. one that has no root in the show?

I'll go first because, well, info dumping is fun <3

-Both Dark Ace and Aerrow are ambidextrous

-Ravess can't cook whatsoever and has been banned from the kitchen both by Snipe and Dark Ace

-Cyclonis likes tragic musicals

-Snipe likes operas

-Dark Ace has a sweet tooth and has a high spice tolerance but can't handle bitter food

-Aerrow has a picture wall for loved ones (from his teammates to the talon academy kids he met with once) (just to remember them by)

-Piper also likes tragic musicals (also normal ones)

-Finn has the biggest clothes collection in the condor

-Junko has very weak taste receptors (even for wallops)

-Stork prefers sleeping in the infirmary

-Radarr gets more chicks than everyone in the world

I saw it and had to draw it

You know I don't think you ever truly leave a fandom. At least i haven't, I may move my attentions to other things for a bit. But I still love all my Muses and fav characters from fandoms

While killing off Finn isn't something I'd seriously consider for my mainline "canon" for what happens on the far side, I think the discussion of it really puts into perspective how he's the emotional center of the team. Aerrow and Piper are the moral compasses, keeping everyone on the heroic path, and Aerrow is most definitely the glue that keeps the team together overall, but morale falls apart without Finn.

Removing Aerrow from the refounding of the Storm Hawks for Buridan's Storm was a challenge but it was doable once I managed to create a reason for the others to still form a team. But I think it'd be a miserable affair if I ever left Finn out of the equation.

I think that speaks to his importance as a character and I wish the show had done more with it.

Probably yes, someday I will make a story with my children.

In the meantime, here are my night sketches with Aerrow and Finn while they are studying at the academy in my AU. Hopefully I'll have time to make more pictures.

AND YES, I FORGOT ABOUT FINN, I ALSO NEED TO DRAW THIS BEAUTIFUL CHILD MORE

Stork: I’m sorry, it’s all just made me a bit nervous.

Finn: Everything makes you nervous, Stork. You’re a walking panic attack.

Master Anarchy finds out about Cyper.

Master Anarchy: Of all the people you could have dated, not only was it one of the Storm Hawks but on top of that… ¡¿STORM HAWK THE BOW TIE?!

Cyclonis: It could have been a lot worse, grandma, trust me.

Master Anarchy: ¡¿HOW?!

Cyclonis: I could have dated him.

Finn: ¡Chi-Ka Chow! 😎👉👉

Master Anarchy: . . . . . . .

Cyclonis: Or the others.

Aerrow: don't even think about it 😒⚔️

Junko: hello! 👋😀

Stork:😰🛠️🛡️🛡️🛡️💣💣💣💣

Master Anarchy: . . . . .

Dark Ace: you have a point, master.

Ravess: we don't have that many decent men these days either.

Snipe: ¡hey! what about ¿¡me!?

Master Anarchy: Fine, Cyclonis has a point.

Piper in her mind: wait, Master Anarchy gave Cyc the reason?

Finn: Hate to bring this up in the middle of a mission, but when I said I was a "safe cracker", I meant I'm a chill white guy.

Queen’s cuddle buddy written by @voltsparrow for this illustration!

Finn couldn’t believe just how lucky they were today. He and Junko were making their way down to the bridge to pass out on the couch. The boys were practically shambling there with how sore their bodies were. 

“I tell you Junko, it’s like I’m cursed! It always happens right when I want it to happen the least!”

“Aw Finn, you’re being silly. There’s no way that your skimmer getting cut in half is a sign you're cursed.”

“But it only happens to me!” The blonde was getting paranoid. It was the 16th time in a row in just the last 2 months that he’d had his ride bisected mid-combat. 

As they walked into the main bridge they could see stork piloting like always. But they noticed something strange about their other teammates. Aerrow and Piper were standing in front of the couch and silently staring down at it. Aerrow had his arms crossed with a smile on his face. Piper was silently giggling and was holding her face in her hands. A dreamy look on her face. 

Finn was thoroughly confused.

“Uhh…” he was immediately met with shushing from his friends before he could say anything. He raised his hands in mock surrender. Piper waved him over but signaled him to stay quiet.

He walked over to the back of the couch and leaned over to see what they were looking at. Junk strolled over to the armrest side to get a look as well. What they saw stunned them. 

It was the dark queen herself, Master Cyclonis…cuddling Aerrow’s fuzzy co-pilot. Finn couldn’t have imagined a more unexpected image if he tried.

She was clearly more exhausted from the last mission than even they were. She certainly had the bandages to prove it. Cyclonis was snoring softly into the scruff Radarr’s neck. Her arms loosely cradling the small blue creature. He was passed out cold with a dumb yet adorable smile on his face. 

Across from Finn, he could see just how enamored Piper was by the duo napping on the couch. She was just gushing over her girlfriend like always. Stars in her eyes. He just enjoyed seeing the goth not be terrifying for once. In fact, he should probably commemorate this moment…

He waved his hand in front of Piper’s face to get her attention. She struggled to tear her eyes away from the cutest thing she had probably ever seen. But she managed. Thankfully, Finn had gotten a lot better at charades since the first time Cyclonis came on board. 

Piper had gotten really good at picking up on his antics so she knew what he wanted her to do and vanished in a flash of light. A second later she reappeared holding a camera. 

Finn gave her an enthusiastic thumbs up and she hopped off her feet and began hovering over the couch, camera in hand. She drifted around a bit until she found the perfect angle and….Click!

She captured something that she would treasure for the rest of her life. Unless Cyclonis found it.

Commissions open on kofi!

Dark Ace: You guys should get the orange soda, it's amazing!

Lightning: Okay

Waiter: Can I get you guys anything today?

Dark Ace: Orange soda please!

Lightning: I'll take a strawberry soda

The other Storm Hawks: Yeah strawberry

~~~~~~

Finn: And that's the reason I think Dark Ace betrayed his old team

Piper: Is this cause of us turning down your frozen yogurt flavor

Finn: NO!!! I said this is why Dark Ace would betray the team >:(

💀 If you had to choose one major character to die, who would you choose?

I feel so, so terrible for this, and it shouldn't be taken as me disliking him but I am a sucker for absolute tragedy.

I'd kill off Finn. Actually kill him off. Probably during a climactic fight against a secondary major threat on the Far Side midway through the campaign against the primary threat.

Aerrow sacrificing himself as a last ditch effort to save Atmos? Too easy. Same with Piper. There'd be grief but the team would likely find the strength to move on for their sakes and look towards a brighter future that their sacrifices helped bring into reality.

Finn?

That would destroy the Hawks to the point of no return if you asked me. He's the light of the team and call me a sadist but

I want to see darkness. Total darkness.

Aerrow, Radarr and Piper would be absolute wrecks. Finn to me is someone who helps balance out the traits they have that, while not necessarily bad traits, can be detrimental if left unchecked (Aerrow's self-sacrificing hero complex and Piper's neuroses and obsession with details).

Junko is distraught. That was his best friend, they were a dynamic duo and there's nobody else in the team that he shares that exact bond with. What's he meant to do now?

Stork would have the easiest time holding himself together, but he was still close with Finn if Calling all Domos was any indication. Now there's an empty space in the Condor that feels like it can't be filled.

Finn's position on the team from a utility perspective is also one that I don't think can be filled nearly as easily as the others. Being a sharpshooter, especially one of his caliber, is a skill we only see in Ravess. Losing him would hobble the team and force them to change tactics and there could be a whole arc dedicated to that adjustment.

I could go on, but the bottom line is that while removing any member of the team would lead to an interesting shift in the story, I think Finn would lead to the most potential. And that makes him a really good character in my opinion. Because his absence would likely be felt more than anybody else's.

There's still a handful of these that I haven't done, so feel free to yeet the last few at me.

Finn: Never have I ever...been grounded by my parents.

Stork, exasperated: every time. He makes orphan jokes every time and he always wins.
