Hello! Your super secret santa here! Was looking through some of your tags to decide what to draw for you and wanted to ask some questions if that's okay ❤️
1.) For galaxies, do you have a ref of their full bodies and what the base might look like for Y/N? And perhaps what Y/N in the story might look like? I'm very interested in it as a subnautica fan myself haha!
2.) For eventide, are there any particular outfits you have for them that you prefer them in? And what kind of jobs they might handle? I don't know much about them but I would love to hear what info you do have to offer!
(Gosh I really hope this goes through as anon)
These are excellent questions! (I'm practically BUZZING with excitement already, omg)
Galaxies: Okay, so I do have a full-body one for Sun, and I'm going to post it here because at this point I don't know when the coloring book is getting released to everyone? Or if it already did? Anyway, so here's that, I've been a bit of a mess since May so I haven't even gotten around to finishing coloring this piece (it's my own coloring page, I recognize the irony). So, Fish-Sun in flats (with Sea Monkey babies):
(I absolutely love Subnautica and Below Zero!!!!)
Now, Moon didn't get finished because a lot of really awful things happened all at once at the end of May and beginning of June, I got repeatedly sick, and so I didn't get around to finishing Moon's coloring page yet. It'll be done eventually, but for now, I'll show you what I did do.
(it actually breaks my heart a little, because I had so many plans for this one, aaaahhhhhhh) So Moon's form in general is pretty similar to Sun's design (long, almost eel-like). He was supposed to have more spines that you can kinda see in the original sketch of Moon in the ref pic, and his design was going to be very inspired by a lionfish, spines down the back and at the "hips".
The end of his tail was actually inspired by an axolotl, I just really liked drawing the little fin on my original sketch (which is long gone) and was like "Yeah, don't care that it looks odd, he's an alien". I do have plans to add more sub-sections of the story later (piratespiratespiratespirates) and I'll probably have to design baby Sun and Moon eventually, but I imagine both will be similar to axolotls, since they're supposed to be related species.
Eventide: Actually yes, I did draw up a buncha outfits! I couldn't tell what was too many refs and what would be wanted, so I cut a bunch of doodles of Eventide that I've got.
So, Eventide is a child unit built by my YN with Sun and Moon's help. She starts as a small child (5-6 years old) and "grows up" (through physical upgrades and hardware updates as her AI learns and grows) with her mum, two dads, and two human sisters. Story-wise, I have the plot for her to get up to about 15-16 (not because she dies, just because I haven't planned beyond that), and she wants to do all sorts of things. Legally, she is the property of YN and not Fazzbear Entertainment, and I'm not sure how to address the whole "can she legally have a job?" thing because I also don't know how to address the whole "Robots are people too, but how do I give them rights", so mostly it's the typical teenage/child level of "I want to be a ballerina and a doctor and a scientist and also I want to do what Mom does (officially, a handler for Sun and Moon and considered an expert in certain kinds of AI and human interactions that go into having a complicated family situation (two robot partners, two human children, one robot child)) and also she wants to do what Sun and Moon do (they will eventually be "retired", this is an agreement YN has with Fazzbear after a disastrous situation at another location, and they will be released permanently into YN's care at that point, but again, that's further down the line). At this time, her "job", as YN states (eventually, when I get there in the story), is to "be a kid and find out what all that means". (As for what she will probably do, I'm leaning towards a baker/barista, a marine biologist, or an artist of some sort.)
#the inquisitor speaks#for my secret santa#If you need more info for either AU#let me know!#I'm simply abuzz with excitement!

(that really was only a small part of the interview, it was really nice. He's quite the dork, and he watches cheesy TV. About history "We can all easily say, looking back 'how could they let that happen in the 30s, it was all so obvious!' But I'd be curious to see what the history books in 2150 will say about the year 2017. Not trying to imply anything about AfD, really, I'm not!" He bought a really expensive watch, that he's always wanted, one like James Bond has in "Quantum of Solace", that
has all the time zones, or sth, and he loves it so much, he wants to show it to the interviewer at the next occasion:). Has he ever resumed diary-writing. "I never stopped?" "Oh? Because I'd read your journal finished with the WC final?" "Oh, that's just when the book was full. So I put it in a safe in a bank. But I got a new one that I write in now. But, you know, it's nothing great. It's just jot a few things down, after every game, in order to remember, just for me. I really enjoyed readingfrom back when I was 17 years old or something. You forget so quickly! But this way, when I'm fifty, I'll get it out and sit down with... André Hahn", and think of the good old times, aw. Later they're kind of chronicling his career, and he refers to the journal a few times. Like when his big dream was playing in Regionalliga (he put that in at 17), and then, when he made his first game for Leverkusen's amateurs he wrote, that's it, made it. Though come this far, there may be even more ahead...
It's also rather cute when he talks about his childhood/youth, when Leverkusen kicked him out as he wasn't good enough ("Back then they told me I was too small... well, I was 1,60m, I was quite small."), and that quite destroyed him, cause he'd gone to training five times a week and every weekend & suddenly it was all over &when he got to school, all his classmates had kind of paired off into couples & talked about things happening on the w-e, and he'd missed it all. But then he didn't want to give up football (and he very sweetly praises his parents, because they didn't understand, they didn't have anything to do with football at all, but they always supported him "and they spend so much time, driving me places and things!"), so he applied at Fortuna Düsseldorf, got accepted, & really learned self-assertion there because everything was much rougher there & a bit of a fight. But eventually he really enjoyed it & ended up captain, and then Max Eberl approached him for the first timeabout Gladbach, CK suddenly having found some recognition, &there were other offers, too, but he wanted to show the Leverkusen people that they'd been wrong about him, so he applied for their amateur team & got in. He became a regular starter so Bayer gave him a new contract, first lending him out to VfL Bochum for playing practise. "What about Max Eberl?" "What about him?" "Didn't he try again?" "No, I don't think he watches Leverkusen amateurs" Hahaha. "That was later, via the bridge of LeonGoretzka. He was great even back then, so there were always scouts at the games for him. I had a good run at that time, and I guess when my contract ended, Max was just like "oh that's the guy I tried to get once before" and went for it." Hehe. There were offers from Benfica Lissabon (and he'd have like to go, he was there in Portugal & everything), also Freiburg which he would have liked, but then Gladbach came in kind of at the last minute, & he didn't think twice about it. He names the Gladbach players of the time & how much he loved it:).
Ofc they talk about the national team. What was it like, getting the phone call from Löw "oh, that was that one game against Poland in May, when all the Bayern and BVB players couldn't come" for some CL reason or sth, so that was quite nice. The game was in Hamburg, and straight after speaking to Löw, he rang his mother, who was so excited and instantly went and booked a hotel there:). He thought it would be his only international game for Germany ever, so he gave it all he got and ran more than 14km in that one game. "Did you think you'd get called up for the WC?" "No, of course I didn't. The preliminary squad had been announced, I wasn't in it and I didn't know you could change that." "So did [Löw] tell you then and there?" "Well, we got back really late that night, we were stuck in traffic, so we only reached the team hotel by 1 o'clock or sth, and when we arrived he took me aside and said, he'd like to take me along to the trainingcamp." "So were you all, 'oh no, sorry, I've got a holiday booked?';)" "I said 'Läuft. Ich komm mit.'" HAHA. Really deadpan. I don't know how to do that justice in translation. Kind of, "well, ok then", like he was doing Löw a favour. It's also quite cute, he says on the plane he and the other "newbies" (Ginter, Durm etc.) kept looking at each other and beaming, they couldn't really believe how they had ended up there &he praises the big stars (Lahm etc.) for making them feel like they had always been part of the squad. Must have been a really great atmosphere, everybody was rooting for everybody. He didn't think he'd get playing time, "only maybe in the group stages, if a game had long been decided and there was nothing at stake", so when those games were over he'd resigned himself to not playing, and didn't mind at all, as he was having "the time of his life", sitting "front row". And everything about Brazil was great. Then the Algeria game, everything was extremely tense, he'd neverseen anything like it, the entire stadium, the whole crowd, everyone was tense. And then in extra time, Löw just went over to him and said "Warm up, I'll put you in", he didn't give him any instructions or anything, & he really appreciated that.
Same with the game against France, and even the final. He says that Sami had pulled a muscle in training & he (Chris) got really nervous, so after the final training unit he asked him how he was and SK said he was fine, he could play, and CK was reallyrelieved & all "Yesss, front row for the WC final" & everything went as planned, normal warm-up & 10min before the game, he was kicking the ball around with Götze* & Schürrle when [Löw] came over to him & said "Sami can't play, you're starting", no tactical instructions again, which he took as a sign of trust (*"He also refrained from telling me to show the world I was better than Messi" hahaha). Interviewer "and you played really, really well, do you ever wonder, what if, what if the clash hadn't happened?" No, not really, because "That day was so perfect, there's nothing to improve about it at all!" btw - the whole world cup talk was prefaced with the reporter asking if he was tired of the topic, and he replied, well, of course he doesn't mind talking about it, but be warned: there's nothing new, it's all been talked about, so no scoop there...hehe.
Ofc the question to the ref, which he *doesn't remember*, duh (but he wonders what language he asked him in, cause he doesn't speakItalian and Rizzoli doesn't speak German and "my English is really bad so if I could put that together in that state I was in then... well, well done me!":) He met Rizzoli again later when Gladbach played Celtic in CL and he came up to him and shook his hand and they shared a moment and laughed together:). There's a lot more, but I'm very, very worried I'm boring you to death (do tell me), so... there. :)
(i love getting info about chris and other gladbach players ur basically my personal german translator lmfao)
it’s kinda cool that he keeps a diary, and consistently as well cos i just forget everything that ever happens to me lmfao but it’d come in super handy if/when he writes that autobiography lmfao but yeah it’s nice to be able to go back and look at memories and thoughts from certain points in ur life
it’s sad that leverkusen didn’t really value him much as a player even when he played for the first team but also lucky cos we got him haha
dam i really wanna know what language he talked to the ref in now lmfao it never really occured to me until now lol but it’s nice that he can laugh and joke about it now i mean ... getting a concussion and asking whether he was actually playing in the final is one way of bonding with refs i guess
