oh no I got dead during new years and didn’t finish the nntm fan thingy (wanted to redo lines) but here were the basic ideas. The challenge was to make battle/active wear based on a battledome challenger.

    Robyn was silent as she crept through the town. It eerily reminded her of the night she left nearly three weeks ago. An impulse decision she knew was bad before she even crossed the town line but she did it anyway. She needed to get away. This town felt like it was suffocating her, it felt like the walls were closing in and all she could hear were the whispers and the rumors and she could only feel the looks. She hated it so she left. 

    But the outside world wasn’t a place she wanted to be for long. Not by herself. Not at 16 and especially not couch surfing or hanging out with strangers in abandoned buildings. But she did it and she couldn’t take it back. She had made the mistake in leaving and now she had to face her family and friends and just hoped that they forgave her for leaving. 

   She turned down the familiar street and walked until she paused in front of the large white house. Maybe she should show up in the morning when everyone was awake? Or she could just sneak in and act like nothing ever happened. Highly unlikely. She needed to do this now and get it over with. She trudged up the walk way and slide her key out of the pocket of her loose fitting overalls and slid it into the lock. The click sounded far too loud in her opinion and she hoped that no one heard it which was a ridiculous thought. 

    Once the door was open she peeked her head inside and breathed in a sigh of relief at seeing no one there. She stepped in and closed the door behind her as silently as she could. She walked about the first floor and once she believed that she was in the clear she made her way to the kitchen to grab something to eat since a protein bar wasn’t the best thing to try and get by on.

character post #9

yeah its that guy I repainted last month!

basic

Rikaron is an old character. He’s probably gone through more changes than any of the others but there are some impulse things I made up when I was 12 that stayed with him like bad ghosts. One is that he always has the color yellow on him, and another is that he can’t stop asking questions. The latter makes gives him that youthful sense of wonder and dependency and also makes him incredibly aggravating to talk to. He didn’t have that habit back when he was a successful AI researcher and engineer, but one of his inventions behaved disastrously in a public demonstration and the chaos turned him into a babbling childish mess who can’t stop questioning everything he sees. A misconception is that when he is asking questions he is asking them to the physical people in front of him. He is not, because even when his conversation partners scream and walk away, he will keep going and going and going.

Relationship: Misaki and RRI

So RR used to be a pretty clever mechanic and programmer. His goal was to create a self sufficient being entirely from scratch using only technology. He began a project that I lazily called ‘RRI’ and it was going well, military and industries poured a lot of money into it. He was always kind of insular but welcoming if anyone did come to him. He adopted a curious, apparently homeless kid as his sister. Things went well until it was actually time to present his invention. It was a private, unrecorded conference so there’s no confirmation of what actually happened. A couple of people were killed in their seats, but the majority went missing entirely, along with the invention, which conveniently never had a picture taken.

RR lived, but he was hiding backstage and came out traumatized and speechless, and retreated to his room with the lights off for a couple of years, leaving Misaki to handle the reporters and such. When he came back out, he seemed to have cheerfully forgotten it all but something was not totally right. He had destroyed all materials on the invention and retreated into the brain state of a 12 year old and naturally he never managed to start or complete another piece of research.

relationship: catoble & waifaiseeto

RR works in clerical job at his old university, and although he can’t really write or build things anymore he remembers where everything is and enthusiastically sorts papers and collects samples and things for the other students and professors. Catoble was a student there and RR helped get him funding to go abroad to do geology, maybe (Catoble is an indecisive kind of guy.) His brother Waifaiseeto was also working on overseas stuff for the university. The school in general keeps him around but in safe, menial tasks and never mention the thing that went wrong all those years ago.

 There are some others who ARE digging around for the runaway bodies and RRI but that’s not relevant to Rikaron yet…

relationship: skogul (nnnooott a neopet)

A hanging storyline that I should probably do something about is his involvement with a shadowy shapeshifter called Skogul. She was a constant presence during the time he was hiding after the RRI incident, although how she got into his locked house is a mystery. He probably imagines seeing her a lot of time where it seems he is chatting into empty space or at strangers. However, she has not actually appeared to him since he left his dark room.

Rikaron is a pastel lupe and my most recently painted pet, I posted about using my FFQ on him a while ago. Almost a decade back, I painted him Split with a PB I got from my first Art Gallery entry. Like Kuvirea, he had a weird purple color combination so I had to color a little differently...

I used to draw him in the regimental jacket used in his customization but these days it’s a hoodie and a lab coat. And more green since there’s green on the pastel lupe. Painting him pastel actually simplified his design so now there’s no chance of forgetting which side was purple and yellow which I mixed up ALL the time when he was split.

The only problem with not being split is he no longer matches the subeta minion I had named after him! Oh well.

[jergg]

Wellll I used my FFQ. RR has been Split for about 7 years, I painted him with the brush I got from the art gallery the first time I got in. Considered Magma but it’s hard to let go of those colors.

another RR and Skogul thing, ew

[jergg]

Skogul's minion looks a lot like a split lupe so.......

I don't know everything looks deep at 4 am

[jergg]

Both of my lab pets zapped lupe. So now I have four lupes, wonderful
