#uzi isnt used to people liking her

Murder Drones Week 2024

August 13th - Worship / Favorite Ship or Platonic Pair

I love drawing these two together. A colorful drone from Earth that loves Humans with a emo drone from Copper 9 that hates Humans.

Second image is Uzi trying Serina's clothes.

Also no. Uzi is not blusing because of a crush. (But I do believe in Bi Uzi).

Uzi is blusing because she isn't used to someone spending time and liking her company.

what are your biggest headcannons for nuzi??

Uzi’s super big on personal space and hates people getting close and touching her. Except when it’s N. She’ll just let him do stuff willy nilly

Uzi acts really aloof when others are around but when theyre alone she just shoves herself into him because shes actually really touched starved and hes so comfortable. She loves cuddling with him although she’d NEVER say that out loud.

Uzi shows him animes she likes on the reg. sometimes she even shows him OCs for the show. The first time N drew one of her characters she cried.

^ Every time he draws something for her (OC, a dog, or just a drawing of her or them) she hangs it up somewhere in her room. Every single drawing he has given her is up there, except for one tiny one he drew of her, which stays in her pocket. She drew a small drawing of N for him to keep so they could be matchy matchy :3

Uzi and N often play video games together as a pastime, sometimes including Thad, V, and/or various friends they (N) makes.

^ bunch of hc built off of that:

They have a minecraft server with a bunch of other people and Uzi is always a gremlin, punching people off of cliffs and burning their homes and whatnot. Especially if anyone gets close to N or his house, she just goes feral on them. She’s also booby trapped some of the area around it (to which N has inadvertently walked into a few before she told him where the rest were)

Uzi gets mad at hell when they play smash bros because N just uses the “play pink character and press b” move and still somehow beats her ass with kirby all the time

Uzi isnt that good at fighting games in general, N normally wins at those. Unless it’s a shooter, and then he gets absolutely decimated.

They play roblox and when they aren’t messing with small children, theyre playing something like altitorture (N keeps falling and Uzi playfully yells at him)

they love matching their avatars but using purple and yellow as accent colors, respectively.

au idea: dolls core was retrieved from cyns body when it melted because robots cannot digest, uzi was kind enough to go back and patch her corpse up and put its core back in place

doll now has permanent scaring and damage due to the whole ribcage thing, shes disabled now but shes managing

doll can still use the solver but its faulty, i think most people in the colony still wouldnt like her but i think at least uzi would respect her

because of the way the colony generally acts and dolls past behavior, shes not exactly popular nor does she have friends. shes not friends with uzi, but they arent enemies or anything

uzi has gotten v to make amends with doll by apologizing, they are NOT friends and still dont like each other but doll is too exhausted to care much anymore

doll and lizzy dont talk anymore, doll misses her but she avoids her because of how close her and v are

doll spends a lot of her time alone, mostly outside of the colony because she cant stand always being in the room where her parents corpses are and doesnt have the emotional strength to hold a funeral for them. it would feel like shes “letting them go” which, even after all this time, shes not ready for

one day on dolls travels through the snow, she comes across j working on the broken down spaceship. both of them are a bit on edge and hesitant, theyve gone so long with being alone and neglecting company that its hard to talk to others without it being awkward.

originally, doll wasnt going to interfere with j, but seeing how j was alone just like she was, she kept finding herself visiting her every so often until it ended up being a daily thing

doll and j mostly bond by talking about their mistakes and their shared loneliness, they find solace in one another but this DOES take time, they dont immediately start liking each other

due to dolls past experience with disassembly drones, she isnt very friendly in the beginning but shes not looking for a fight either. j has always seen worker drones as incompetent so thats all she thought doll was going to be, she deemed doll a waste of her time

im not sure how their first conversation would go, but i know it would be short. theyre both trying to get out of the interaction but theres enough information shared between them to pique their interests (and the fact theyre both incredibly lonely and crave company but are too afraid to admit that) so that leads to doll visiting more rhan she wanted to… however, it was a subconscious decision AT FIRST

thoughts?

[marcygoo]

okazyyyy here we go. parts from murder drones eps 6-7 that really tickle my brain that i never see people mention like ever (if you come into the reblogs or comments of this post being like "why didnt you include (x part that everyone talks about)!!!" then that is why. and also i am going. to Eat You.) this isnt really going to be organized or anything. basically just me being abnormal about sounds and movements and other minuscule details that im really fond of for however many words

okay, first thing is gonna be a sound thing. i absolutely LOVE the beeping sound uzi's visor makes in this part. i really like sounds.

cant get a good screenshot of the movement cus.. yknow. duh. movement. but the way alice moves from there to the ground to where v is so. idk. fluid. its so fun to look at i really like it

the finger snap here. i love this finger snap. the noise. the movement. its so good. its so crisp. i love it

the lighting on uzi's face. forgive me for using the word crisp twice in a row but its crisp. its really good. okay

and the lighting on n's face here??? the colors are so harsh. i really like looking at it. okay. i feel like im not writing enough to just describe how much i like the lighting here. i really like it. its cool. okay i think its cool. i dunno

i really like this hallway. thats it. thats the section. the way the camera slowly tilts just a little bit while it zooms in? the way the slowed down music in the background almost sounds like alarm sirens? like okay

another thing i cant capture properly because, duh, movement! but the way the red sentinel kind of dips down here? i dont know why it did that but it slayed. and id like you all to ignore the fact that my nyan cat youtube bar got caught in the screenshot

the sound effect that plays here when "tessa" cuts herself with the sword. i dunno. its just a really satisfying sound to me thats all

another thing about sound effects really close to the last one but. the sorta crunching noises that uzis hand being contorted here make. im normal about sounds i promise. ok on to episode 7

the lighting here. on nori. insane. im not normal. as mentioned before with n i love this kind of harsh lighting especially with the drones it just looks so visually appealing

okay ANOTHER part i cant properly capture. this bit where it zooms in on the screen and shows the elevator. im. not normal about it. i really really like it alright.

UGHHHH THE WAY UZIS HAND MOVES HERE. THE MOVEMENT. THE FLUIDITY OF IT. IM ACTUALLY OBSESSED. AAUUGHHHHHHHHHHGGGGHHHHHH

LETS EAT!!!! DUDE. UGHHHH. AUGH. i LOVE this part SO MUCH you guys have no idea. im obsessed with it. the line delivery. the pose. the shot. the implications. the way that its just such a simple and commonly used phrase. do you get it. do you understand. genuinely one of my favorite little parts in the whole series im not kidding. let's eat

o-o-o-o-ow! ! !!! i always love the glitched voice effects alright. and that combined with the movement of nori's body being forced back by the crucifix. idk. i dunno man. i just like it

and UGH. LITERALLY right after that. the lighting flash just as she pulls it out of her face????? i hate this show so much guys. aughhhhhUGHHHHHHHHH AUGHJJ

grrrr this part. i literally NEVER see people mention it but. the way uzi.. the solver.... uh. whagever. the way their eyes sorta wobble when they turn to look up at n and nori. its a really cool movement to me i dunno

THE CRUNCHING NOISE WITH THE MOUTH GETTING PULLED SO FAST FROM A TINY FROWN TO A HUGE SMILE LIKE THAT??? EWWW????? INSANE. CRAZY. I LOVVE ITTT AUGH

no comment needed. the 😁

ok im kinda putting a lot of stuff from this fight on here. forgive me. its got a lot of really cool stuff. this part like. like. the way all the sound gets kinda muffled and crunchy.. aughh.... i love it. hurts me in my bones. 10/10

ok bit of an unusual thing to point out here but. the solvers flapping here. its so strange. it looks so weird and mechanical to me. in a good way i love it

the hand twitch. no further comment.

eugh. this part. the way the coagulated blood (???) almost jiggles like jelly. eughhh ewwwwwww. why are you like thattttt. (positive! i love blood.)

drone sound: much, crunch (i REALLY like the sound effect that plays when uh... flesha. bends down and Crunches dolls core. the sorta glass breaking sound. sorry doll.)

the fucking frog blink. why are you like that. i hate this thing so much.

the music that starts up right as j lands.. eughjghgjhhhh. augh. dies. also side note that i wasnt able to fit really anywhere. but i love the sound that the ship makes. dont know how to describe it but yknow what im talking about right

the fucking. sound effect. of uzi stabbing her own hand with the protruding bone. crunch. i really really love crunchy crunching sounds. theyre so good. one of my favorites honestly

uh. okay. well thats it thats the post. thanks for coming to my Autism. walks away

Code And Bones HeadCanons #1

Manor B was actually pretty loud and rambunctious. they often ended up injured or having broke stuff. The Elliotts were very angry with them for that.

Manor R often stuck to being around Tessa or N, though sometimes got stuck with Cyn. She was still very anxious back then but tried to play it off more.

Manor B and R never really got to meet eachother since they occupied different sections of the manor.

Cantor has bandages around his torso since his original idea to look like a DD was to remove his core and shove it into a different body. He decided against it mid-way though and just.. kinda slapped bandages on. If you were remove it you could see parts their core showing through.

Cantor is able to see perfectly fine out of their double eye!

Cantor is surprisingly good with kids when not in "solver mode". They actually DONT KIDNAP THE CHILDREN, and dont let them do anything too dangerous. Cantor has been placed in charge of kids before, and while they dont enjoy it the most they arent bad at it.

R's wings are not functional due to them being constantly used to shield to the point of rust, burn, and parts falling off.

B's wings are more bee like and are functional!

R's tail was accidentally ripped off by J, who tried to pull in R to use as a shield for her but accidentally ripped their tail off instead.

Cantor suffers from nightmares and sometimes isnt able to tell if he woke up or not, leading them to do dumb shit.

Cantor LOVES "weird/gross" flowers and carnivorous flowers. "Corpse Flower? OH FUCK YEAH GIVE IT TO MEEEEE". They do NOT care if others find it gross.

While sometimes N cant hang out with Thad and Cantor (Thats like almost never but it does sometimes happen), he makes it a point to ALWAYS drop off baked goods for them. every single week or so.

N and Thad have keys to Cantor's lab, and sometimes go in to talk to them, get them to touch err.. snow, or make sure they arent dead.

Thad has a custom skateboard Cantor made for him, at first it did almost kill Thad a few times but now Thad has gotten a hang of it and can make others eat his dust!

Cantor got.. a little silly and tampered with N's headlight sensor thingies, so now their blue. Doesn't effect N at all, it just got a few weird glances when the others first noticed.

If sleeping in the same bed, N, Thad, and Cantor will sleep in a VERY specific way. Thad and N cuddling together, and then Cantor barging in and jumping on both of them, laying across both of them.

Thad has tried to dye his hair before but it looks absolutely awful when he does it lol.

Thad wakes up with a more raspy voice (which often gets N and Cantor flustered).

N snores in his sleep.. very loudly… if he goes to sleep first most other people wont be able to sleep after.

Uzi and R have caused fires in the kitchen before, they just get a bit distracted!

Uzi has gotten R into nightcore and now sometimes R will play nightcore songs when doing stuff.

When Khan first found out about Uzi dating a Disassembly Drone he kinda.. freaked out a tiny bit.. but Nori freak out a LOT. The two warmed up to R though since she was always polite.

Whenever R comes over to Uzi's home she always does chores. She doesnt have to, in fact Uzi tries to get her not to, but she feels bad for being there and feels she has to make up somehow.

Uzi has bracelet making kits and sometimes makes bracelets with Thad.

Uzi has a playlist of music specifically for when R comes over since R gets overstimulated by some louder types of music.

R has picked up on Uzi's "bite me!" and has started using it a bit.

Uzi often calls R "butterfly" or "shyfly".

J loves whenever B does her little buzzing thing whenever she's relaxed. Sometimes J will just lay on B and listen to the vibrations.

J is one of the only people who can actually touch B's wings. B doesn't like most people touching her wings since they're somewhat fragile and sensitive.

Whenever B does J's hair for her, her hair somehow always is way fluffier than normal.

Sometimes when B is tired or half asleep, she'll nuzzle her face against J.

B tries her best to get J to relax whenever she overworks herself, she hates how J sometimes visits and is clearly about to pass out.

B sometimes awakens to J having sent her like 20 links to things she think B would like.

J and B are busy and have opposite sleep cycles so they don't get to be together too often, which upsets them, but they make sure to at least set aside one day per week to hang out.

J finds peace in organizing stuff, its calming to her.

J had a custom NON JCJenson pen made for her by Cantor, it can change to basically any color, and is very nice to click.

J's hair is actually incredibly long and fluffy, but she doesn't take the best care of her hair so she often just shoves it into pigtails. B tries her best to fix it whenever she can though, and sometimes J can be spotted with her hair down whenever B recently helped out with it.

J has a whole entire bow collection, and she sometimes wears yellow bows instead of her usual black (especially when visiting B, the yellow reminds her of honey so.. yeah :3).

And if the stands that are on the Glitch website are any indication, I honestly think that if N loses it, he’ll need help snapping out of his rampage, or may become easier to become a host for the solver in his unwell state.

It has been shown that N doesn’t even know he’s the strongest. For example in episode 4 when he shoots the arrow and it catches on fire, him saying “did I cheat?”. Meanwhile V shoots an arrow too, and nothing like that happens, she just kills a worker drone classmate. Also the fact that he could take on V in the Pilot without much problems, except his previous crush on her that is. And also another scene in episode 4, where V was scared shitless when fighting Uzi,, getting knocked all over the place (probably due to her vision), but N getting stabbed and shrugging it off, just lecturing V and flying up to get Uzi. There are a lot of other moments, like him being able to fling Uzi in the air twice without much effort (even if she is short, she definitely is heavy, she’s made of metal), open the steel doors of Copper 9 in the Pilot, being able to take injuries like nothing while his other two teammates are become in pain. Theres a lot of subtle evidence for this your wouldn’t notice unless you are looking at ever detail.

But related to the episodes and implied plot , we already have the V stand, so the Uzi stand will be related to Episode 7. Uzi looks taken over by the solver in the stand, so whether she can fight the solver by the end of season 1 or she loses herself to it is the end game for that episode. (She can also make us think we lost her to it but come back when N is in a rampage to save him too, but we’ll see…)

Tessa being a mindtrick of the solver like I and a lot of people have theorized in Episode 7, and trying to get N to kill or hurt Uzi so it can either take over her body completely as a host or take over N in his grief stricken state of already losing V (which isnt confirmed and she can come back but he is not in the right mind to know that), is not going to end well for it. Like you said, N is the strongest and if he goes crazy and isn’t able to stop himself then we will see Tessa and by extension probably Doll die as a sort of snapping point for him. If Tessa, Doll, V and Uzi are not around anymore, there will be no one to calm him down and snap him out of that rampage. N might massacre them all (and hope he doesn’t lash out on Uzi because she’s fighting with CYN and he’s pissing him off)

Which leads me to to the finale stand which appears to be releasing when Episode 8 is released. It is obvious at this point the last person to finish the mural is N, the last of our three main characters as a center point in the finale. He would be alone, mentally unstable, and unless V and/or Uzi fight through their battles and turn out to be okay and help him through his battle, then we might see the end of the series or the solver taking over him , Uzi spending a Season 2 trying to save him.

This is just my own thoughts, but I can’t wait for the next 2 episodes and what will happen to our remaining cast!!

(And for N to go apeshit, because honestly with how he’s been treated, he deserves it.)

JUST REALIZED HOW FUCKED TESSA AND CYN ARE

this is based off of a combination of very likely headcanons-

the concept of N being the strongest out of him, V, and J… and the idea of him probably going fucking crazy in episodes 7 or 8…

and then i remember that said crazy rampage will probably be directed at tessa for trying to kill uzi… and then he realises that tessa is a cyn puppet. SHES FUCKING DEAD.

[aby55-of-the-ab5o1ute]

i dont know how to say this

sometimes we're "jealous" of other systems

for every. single. reason.

We dont feel valid.

We can barely talk to eachother and yet we can switch in and out sometimes on command..

Theres so many of us and yet most dont front..

we barely have an innerworld and we cant make one because our memory is so shit and we cant draw it or find anything that would let us build it out.

other system's alters seem "cooler".

I dont know how to explain it.

i dont mean it in the regular sense.

i just.. we feel stupid calling ourselves systems.

it feels like we're putting a bad name to all other systems.

We barely have source memories, most of the time we just form with a few and forget them..

We struggle with in-sys relationships because romantic feelings arent.. really there.

We barely see eachother as people.

Either our amnesia barriers are so funky that it causes us to not be able to communicate well or.. feel eachother...

or.. i dont know..

maybe its all made up

we all feel so, so disconnected from one another

we dont really give a shit about eachother half the time

we cant get comfort from eachother, we cant feel "love" for eachother, we cant..

we cant feel eachother.

im so fucking tired.

im so done.

Sometimes i dont even know if i can call myself Uzi because i dont feel any connection to my source

but i do..?

I see others sourced from Uzi and refer to her as "I/me" and such

but i cant..

I cant do that.

I always use third person.

I feel so stupid typing all of this because I KNOW people will say "source seperation isnt bad!!" etc etc.

I KNOW THAT!

THAT ISNT WHAT THIS IS THOUGH!

:(

i dont know what this is

i dont know what we are

i dont even know if "we" are a we.

This isnt even the surface of how I feel, but I cant explain it.

Headcannon about N and Rocky!

> At first N wouldnt really like Rocky and vise versa, they would get into alot of scuffles about how...

N : Murder isnt nice!!! Uzi made me promise not to kill Workers for oil in my world, only to stop from overheating when we are too hungry!

Rocky: Its kind of a common thing in this world, guns, violence, crimes, the mafia...murder. I suggest you get used to it while your here.

> They then both procees to argue about the wrongs and rights of murder while Uzi and Freckle stare on in dissaproval.

> Also they would absolutely NEED to have a joke as soon and N and Rocky speak to each other and they both say " Hey, why do we have very VERY creepy oddly similar voices for some odd reason...?"

> Lots of fights of who would get the first kills on every little mission. Competition central.

> N is always extra trying to impress Uzi or V, whereas Rocky is just...extra and very crazy always trying to impress gods know who.

> His chaotic laughter scares the biscuits out of N.

> And N's X stalking Dissasembly Drone mode scares Rocky, especially with his tail and wings.

> Eventually N and Rocky realize they arent so different afterall, and just as Rocky can be batshit crazy sometimes, N can have frenzied chaotic laughters and killing sprees and enjoy it as well as Rocky can learn how to be alittle less...um...extra when needed be.

> In the end, they become very good friends before the other party has to go back to their dimension!

(Sorry this was long, ideas just started flowing 🥺💞 I love this concept)

Also V would think Maisy is a big weak baby at first, until she sees how sweet she is and how smart she can be, even if its not always 100% perfect. So they become a big sister little sister dynamic and Maisy looks up to her!

Freckle and Uzi (and sometimes Maisy and Rocky) are the ones constantly getting into chaos and N and V are just constantly getting them out of trouble. People tend to run when they see the Murdee Drones wingsspan so usually, this isnt a problem for too long!

(Sorry if this is off in any way, Im kind new to Lackadaisy more then Murder Drones, but I love them both and cant wait to see more of them both! Also a Lackadaisy series pls! And Murder Drones Episode 4 in 2 days ahhhh!🥺💞💞)

what if Lackadaisy and murder drones had a crossover

There would be a lot of guns, violence, and cuteness

And of course, amazing writing and storytelling

Uzi and Freckle be best friends

It might be a little awkward for Rocky and N though

(this is a cool idea, I might actually write this)

[withered--s0uls]

Okay, I wasn't going to say anything bc I'm scared of a repeat of the past ones.

This is the closest I've seen to possible issues being addressed, that's why I reply to this.

PREFACING THIS: Tofe - I have nothing against you and I do NOT condone any harassment your way /gen - this entire reblog is /info & /not mad and my intended tone is neutral (I sometimes struggle with that so I clarify it to avoid misunderstandings)

I in fact have very mixed feelings on the AU, as it in fact DOES peek my interest. The concept sounds interesting. However, I'm someone affected by some stigmatizing tropes that it seems to be walking very close to (which I'm sure is not on purpose) which has been keeping me at a distance.

I'm mostly reblogging this publicly so others who may not understand the reason people are upset may understand better.

The initial uproar on Twitter was mostly just "oh no, N is OOC!" which I think kinda ended up overshadowing many valid concerns.

Jenkins in the OG tweet refers to Nyx as a mental illness & how "it's a common horror trope" -- that's exactly a huge worry I have.

From the bits I have seen i cant tell what the AU plans are ofc. But I'd like to bring attention to something that's worrying me as someone with BPD who is a system;

the resemblance of the yandere trope - I don't want to re type a lot here atm so I will just link some stuff I said on Twitter on my experience with it:

A little bit emotional rant on it here

More calmer thread made for educational purposes during BPD awareness month here

Other related ones:

Favorite People (typically what the obsession in the yandere trope is based on)

BPD Splits (typically what the negative behavior in the trope is based on)

The possibility of an "evil alter" type trope

I acknowledge that we don't exactly know what Nyx is, and I understand not wanting to spoil things. But I feel it very much should be addressed sooner rather than later.

When I saw the seperation between him & N, one huge worry I had was the possibility of "evil alter" trope (even if N isnt a system and Nyx isnt an alter, it has to be handled carefully because the whole sharing a body thing very much can cause comparisons to be drawn)

In a LOT of horror media, systems are represented as having some "evil serial killer alter" which has greatly harmed us; to the point of many Systems being asked IRL "omg your alters wont like kill me right?" when they open up to people.

Again

I find the AU interesting but I have many worries and fears about the way these concerns just haven't been addressed at all from what I've seen.

I think many people lack the terms to properly Express the concerns and have turned to insults, and I'm genuinely sorry that happened.

I'll probably keep an eye on it from a distance to see if we do get any clarification that might prove my worries to be unwarranted -- if it's handled with enough care and in a way that doesn't necessarily antagonize these mental illnesses more, then i will be happy to be proven wrong in my concerns.

Personally my issue is NOT the tackling of uncomfortable topics, but more so how very close the line here is between exploring one aspect of mental illness and possibly harming another group on accident.

I'll be happy to take it to DMs here or on Twitter if either Tofe or I feel like there is more need for discussion. I just wanted to try and get the worries of many across.

Most of us arent mad at Tofe, nor do we condone any form of harassment. We are just scared because the murder drones fandom unfortunately is notorious for demonizing Uzis implied BPD (often by mischaracterizing her as a yandere in ep 4) and most characters PTSD already (not aimed at anyone specifically!) - so seeing something that at first was very much being presented as a yandere trope made many people jump on the defensive.

Obviously I also don't know whether or not you yourself have either disorder and are already writing the story with that in mind! And you DON'T owe me that information! I'm just speaking from the outside as someone who randomly saw it on Twitter initially and then a few days later saw all the fanart and took another look.

I'm sorry that seemingly nobody tried to just have a neutral and informative discussion about it -- that would have avoided a lot of grief for everyone.

So, I wanted to talk about something since MD Twitter in particular seems to be having some issues with a current trend in the MD fandom. That being the Panic AU by @candyasbestos (apologies in advance for the ping, just felt like maybe you'd wanna see this)

So I'd like to start right off the bat by saying anyone who is uncomfortable with this AU is completely reasonable for being that way. It's more so that uncomfortableness leading to disdain for the AU that I wanna talk about.

So, I'm a horror fan. I watch plenty of things on horror movies and play plenty of horror games. And what exactly does horror media try and do? Make the player horrified and uncomfortable. Seeing grotesque imagery which may make you wanna vomit. One of the games that comes to mind for something that's definitely meant to make people uncomfortable and not just scared is Fear & Hunger. It's a game with incredibly uncomfortable imagery, sometimes due to gore and other times due to sexual themes. And it's perfectly reasonable for that to turn people off, yet I've never seen anyone have the kind of reaction to stuff like that compared to the reactions some people have had to the Panic AU

And that's the thing with the Panic AU, it makes *N* uncomfortable. Uncomfortable with himself due to Nyx's influence on him. That is the entire point of the AU it seems. And Nyx himself seems to be some kind of representation of mental illness (pretty standard horror trope, I know). I'm not an expert in the subject despite dealing with it quite a bit so I won't name any specific mental illnesses it could be, but it's clear to me Nyx is some kind of urge of N's.

I've made plenty of characters like Nyx for my original works that are also meant to be representations of mental illness. Voices that whisper to you to do terrible things, creatures that make you feel worthless and shut down, etc. I make these not only because I find them scary but also as reflections of my own experience with mental illness. And it's that first point again that makes me question people's reactions to it.

People have said "It's grossly out of character for N" and stuff like that which...honestly that makes me think they only saw the initial wave of art and don't really know how N feels about the whole situation. But the other thing is that so many AUs have intentionally mischaracterized N because of what the AU is. And I'm not talking just swap AUs, I've seen plenty where N's character is wildly different because of the circumstances of the AU. And I see the Panic AU no different.

I also saw another comment of someone saying "We shouldn't normalize behavior like this" and again, I question whether the person has actually researched the thing they're talking about. Nyx, the thing that makes everyone uncomfortable, is very clearly the *villain* of the AU. He killed Uzi, he wants N to kill Thad, he's a horrid little creature. Are villains not meant to do things we disdain? Murder, torture, etc. It's prefectly understandable these things would make people uncomfortable, but isn't that what many villains do? There's plenty of media with torture scenes in them which make people uncomfortable, but that's the point! Hell, some kid shows have torture scenes. What about the Lich's design from Adventure Time? He's a rotting corpse! In a kid show! His design is clearly meant to make the viewer uncomfortable.

So again, while I don't think anyone is in the wrong for being uncomfortable due to the AU, I think many of the criticisms are unfair. A piece of media which is specifically designed to make people uncomfortable should not be criticized for that very reason. Avoid it all you want, that's completely reasonable! Never feel like your reasons for being uncomfortable are unwarrented. But I'm just saying that if you were to critique Silent Hill because it's themes of mental illness and character depictions made you uncomfortable, and that was a *negative*, it just seems a little weird to me.

This is all just my opinion, obviously I'm not THE definitive person on the matter. And I'm not saying anyone who has the AU blocked or anything should check it out. I'm just saying, many people seem to be judging it unfairly.

[withered--s0uls]

Adds to list of ideas

Hmmmm. It getting Daytime so they're stuck with them for the time being

We get a range of

- IC!Uzi after the two Ns arrive being like "welcome back also hi" - proceeds to take Ray from Rexim and announcing she's putting the baby to sleep. Then when she's done with that she locks herself in her workspace bc she got work to catch up on after watching 8 Kids by herself.

- GD!N probably picking up on her quickly barricading herself after his arrival so god forbid he now thinks she hates him

- the kids proceeding to try and bother him with a ton of questions (trying to find out the differences and similarities between their dad and Beanies dad)

- "Guess which kid was not named by Uzi"(IC!N pointing at the 4 code related kids, 3 are named after guns.) "Why did you pick Raven?"(GD!N) "Egg."(Raven) --- alternate ending being "Why did you pick Beanie?" "Fair enough"

- Raven getting put into "timeout" (thrown over their dads shoulder like a bag of potatoes) for actually trying to bite GD!N and probably scaring the shit out of him with the damn Solver teeth (even if they're filed down it's still kinda obvious)

- Circling back to Ic!Uzi, my homegirl overworked herself until her battery is on a whopping 3%. She leaves the workspace and kinda just collapses bc her battery hits 0% (Ic!N being like "not again")

- Rexim, due to not really using his visor optics as eyes, coincidentally looking as if he's staring straight at GD!Uzi before like GD!Nuzi take note of the fact his headband optics are the only ones actually in use Idk I think it'd be funny bc he does kinda just look like he's staring at random shit to people who don't know about his broken main camera

- Annika being made to apologize after saying GD!N looks mentally ill, he says its fine (spoiler alert: it isn't, she made it very obvious to him that he isnt hiding stuff well)

Now, should I be nice and have it be IC!Ns day off so GD!N isn't left alone with a bunch of kids or should I be an ass and have the poor mentally ill man somehow deal with the kids of IC!Nuzi whilst IC!Uzi is passed out and recharging and IC!N is off at work.

I mean the three Teens at least can look after themselves and probably would help (to various degrees of actual helpfulness) before & after school. But that still leaves him with 3 Toddlers/Pre-Schoolers and a Baby he doesn't know a lot about on top of his own daughter, one of the toddlers/Pre-Schoolers being dead set on pouncing him like a cat and biting him and another trying to act mature and like an adult and failing horribly bc she's like 5.

It would be kinda funny if he had to watch them and then when Ic!N comes back from work GD!N is like "what do you MEAN you run a Daycare on top of this?!" Bc like if Ic!N isn't there to keep his kids insanity in check then their curiosity and unhingedness will get the better of them.

(I just accidentally deleted a whole paragraph I'll go commit a murder)

Like? Without their dad keeping the kids I'm check we get

- Orita having inherited Uzis unhinged side, so one moment she will be sweet like N in Canonverse, the next she will smile wildly with hollowed optics and will talk about the time she chopped off her bodies original worker forearms to replace them with self made DD forearms. Even worse she might ask if GD!N wants to see the weapons she built from scratch (only for her 5yo adopted sister to be like "You aren't allowed to pull out your weapons without your mom or dad or V present!")

- Raven probably actually biting him when he's distracted and then after proceeding to cover him in stickers like Orita & they did to Beanie. Except Raven doesn't ask GD!N first, they just suddenly do it (it's even the glitter stickers, someone save GD!N from the IC!Kids) -- note them actually continuously trying to bite him (without breaking metal notably!) as they are around him more and then covering him in stickers technically means they like him so 😭 that's a win ig? (If they didn't like him theyd not hesitate to break metal)

- Rexim blasting music whilst doing his homework, how does his mom not wake up? Robo-Fod knows how. Probably her body being in forceful shutdown until she's fully recharged

- Annika saying whatever comes to mind without thinking (she accidentally says stuff she shouldn't again)

- Olivia and Zagi being the only ones not causing problems despite being literally 5-6 years old. Olivia trying to act mature and Zagi just following their dads order of "behave and be nice to the other N" Zagi probably brings him a dog plushy or something if they notice him being stressed from having 8 kids running around (Typically how they help their parents with stress is cuddles, but they don't know if GD!N is comfortable with that so they just give him a plushy)

- Ray is a baby the worst he can do is cry because he wants to be held

Eventually at least Raven would get all their energy out of their system and fall asleep, the IC toddlers/pre-schoolers *do* still take Naps because like, Raven is a ball of chaos, Zagi is just constantly slightly eepy & Olivia finds comfort in it.

- Also whenever IC!Uzi does wake up and IC!N does kinda just pull her aside and tell her he picked up on GD!N seemingly beating himself up (IC!N may suck at math but at least he can read body language) I feel some awkward exchange happens where she's just like "I like didn't want to make you uncomfortable or upset simply by being around. Idk I thought it'd probably mess with your head" like IC!Khan when she was younger got visibly upset seeing other families with kids where both parents are still around so that kinda made her come the the conclusion that ESPECIALLY with her being an alternate version of GD!Ns dead wife he probably would be upset seeing her and god forbid seeing her and IC!N being affectionate with each other like the moments she is around him pre passing out it's kinda obvious she is trying to act different from how she'd normally act, mainly with her hands like twitching towards her partner but then pulling back. She over the years did become way more comfortable with pda and actually started initiating it more often.

Also I just whilst typing realized that IC!Nuzi are likely a good chunk older than GD!N just bc of picking a point in the timeline where they already have all kids lmao. Like the twins are 15. The twins were uploaded to their Untrained Networks between episodes 4 and 5 and in this AU a good amount of time passes between them.

Those mfs are between 35-40 if not older 💀tbf in my take on drone ages that's still very young for them bc I feel they have a lifespan longer than humans but still.

Anyways back to me taking another nap or something idk I'm rambling nonsense into the void

Oh look it's another GD crossover

Ghost Drone AU - @electrozeistyking

You already saw all this art but shhh HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

This originally started out with me just wanting to draw Beanie interacting with the Intertwined Codes Kids but then I added some extra stuff lol.

If you're a reader of Intertwined Codes, this kinda sorta spoils future stuff bc only the twins have been mentioned in the Draft/Teaser fic but oh well. You have been warned.

IC!Uzi wouldn't like actually meet GD!N bc they'd kinda decide that "hey, let's not have the widowed man see an alternate version of his wife that actually got live." simply out of respect kinda?? So she would stick around at home with the kids whilst IC!N goes out to look for Beanies Dad after their kids drag her to them lmao.

So yeah she doesn't necessarily know the extent of the mans depression, the kids just mentioned there only being a dad so she just specifically asks about GD!N in this doodle

IC!N would quickly pick up on GD!N not being completely okay, even without being told any details. So he probably would end up sitting him down to talk on their way back to the IC!Doorman families place, wanting to help if he can in any way. (He runs a Daycare and tries to also be a support to any parent that needs it, so I feel he out of habit would lean into trying to do that with GD!N)

More/The kids under the Cut otherwise the post looks so long rip

I will go over each of these one by one (can'tdo close ups bc 10 image limit, I'll reblog this in a second with the close ups.)

Left are the Code-Related Nuzi kids, right are the adopted ones.

Code related kids

Zagi:

Not much to say, I'm still working out their personality - they're maybe 2-3 years older than Beanie, so they aren't too far apart in age. :)

Orita:

She's the sibling who started the trend of putting stickers on her siblings, so she DEFINITELY would do the same with Beanie.

She also probably originally was going to show her how to build a weapon, but her parents promptly stopped that lmao .

She would think it's really cool that Beanie has a custom core icon & in general is completely customized from the start! She herself was originally put into a regular worker body (just with the tail and headband being custom made by her mom), she had to build the DD forearms herself. She also has a sticker of the DD icon on her core, covering the WD icon :3

Rexim:

At this point he has enough siblings to be past the "ew a little kid" phase, so luckily Beanie gets spared that. His main camera is damaged, he only really uses his headband optics to look around, so he would kinda just look as if he's staring past her a lot. But bc of the obvious cracks in his visor I feel she would pick up on the fact he's not actually ignoring her.

Also he definitely would just play music to her, because IC!Uzi kinda always has music on whilst working in her workspace he kinda picked up some of her taste in music (Hence he's playing the same song that Uzi is shown to have been listening to in Ep7)

Raven:

First up THANK YOU Zeisty for helping me brainstorm silly stuff for them. They're a little ball of chaos now and I love them.

Anyways.

They would join Orita in bedazzling Beanie, and then they'd start talking about bird facts and also try to get Beanie to talk about her interests.

(Their height difference isnt 100% accurate bc halfway through drawing this I changed the IC timeline, making Raven about the same age as Zagi instead of them being a teen, so I kinda had to manually try and semi-fit their heights lol)

Adopted Kids

Ray:

Nothing to say. He's a baby. Tho whilst I was outlining this one I had to giggle because of how big he is in Beanies hands. She's so tiny 😭💕 /affectionate

Annika:

Oh boy. Ann.

Annika is the eldest kid & was adopted a while before Zagi was coded / whilst the parents were organizing the code copies for Zagi

She does NOT know how to talk to other kids. Never did. It made her stick out at the orphanage wing because she just avoided everyone. And it is very chaotic when Olivia and Ray first show up, because Ann's only idea of talking to other Drones is "well you got to be relatable" so she brings up the siblings dead parents bc like, her code parents are dead too. Both pairs dying to DDs. So yeah she probably would be the first, if not only one, in the whole household to just bring up GD!Uzi. She would do it like it's nothing either.

IC!Uzi would promptly get her to stop and sit her down having a conversation about "what did N and I say about trying to connect on that topic?"

Like IC!Uzi would actually feel really bad about it despite Beanie not knowing her mom. Bc she herself obviously didn't remember IC!Nori growing up but still didn't like the topic.

Olivia:

Olivia, as I said, was greeted with the topic of dead parents by Annika as well. So she probably would kinda interfere when IC!Uzi goes to sit Ann down to talk.

She would feel the need to apologize for the older girls behavior (which Ann would apologize for herself later too ofc) and would try to get Beanie to go play something together whilst IC!Uzi sorts that whole situation out.

She's also the closest to Beanies age probably, just was forced to mature bc of what happened to her parents, despite being taken in by Nuzi shortly after. She still obviously acts like a kid tho when comfortable, so I feel she would kinda ease up around Beanie and actually act more like a 4-5 year old around her.

Bonus? Bonus!

Needless to say Beanie would return home covered in stickers & hairpins (Orita & Raven have more than enough of those, they'd just let Beanie keep some)

RIP GD!N having to get her out of those stickers once they're back home

Also, for the "*humming*" variation of the picture I blame @k1k0oftheworld. Kiko was in vc with me when I was talking about how Beanie would be covered in stickers when she gets home, and saw the doodles as well.

He proposed the following scenario after seeing Rexim show Beanie IC!Uzis playlist:

Beanie humming dead batteries song & GD!N having a breakdown bc it reminds him of GD!Uzi

I do not take accountability for this, I was going to spare the poor widowed man.

(I scrapped the idea of him not knowing ab the IC!Doorman family and him getting a mini heart attack when Beanie goes "I met Mom today" in favor of him and IC!N meeting & talking - I WANTED TO SPARE HIS POOR HEART)

@k1k0oftheworld you owe him money for a therapy session now /silly

Anyways that's it, I'll put the close ups in the reblog like I said 👍

[hearts401]

this is also why im really picky about how people portray them. and this goes for oilrose too. I feel like i sometimes see j and vs personalities overlapping when they really dont that much? just bc theyre the scary girls. and this isnt a consistent problem i just saw it once or twice and theyre super special to me so im using it as an excuse to talk about them.

J IS NOT LIKE V. V IS NOT LIKE J.

J is efficient. She doesn't kill for survival or even for fun, she kills because it's her job and she was made for it. She follows orders, she's responsible. There's a reason she's the leader. She's tough, but she's very stiff. She doesn't relent. This clashes a lot with Uzi, who does what she believes to be right and kills when she feels its necessary and deserved (like how she shot n, was willing to leave him to die, and killed j. twice.) but she also is unrelenting. and she's also the leader of her group, though theres much MUCH more mutual respect (which, again, clashes with J)

V, however, kills for fun and survival before meeting Uzi. She kills because it's simply what she does to live, but she also clearly finds it enjoyable. But then shifts to killing what she needs to survive, when talking to N. because she still has a lot of sympathy, especially for N. Then it turns into "we kill what we need and that thing (cyn) leaves us alone" and she was WILLING to kill uzi. The reason she didn't was because of N. Because she cared about him. She's not efficient, shes not responsible (like. at all.) and shes not as stiff and angry as J. she may be irritable, but shes not angry per se. (does that make any sense? V is like the >:) and J is the >:( DOES THAT MAKE SENSE????)

V works with Uzi because she ends up holding herself back from killing her despite everything in her screaming at her to do so. Because she loves N. But eventually that opens a door for her and Uzi to develop a real relationship.

Their personalities clash because J wants things to be right, perfect, and efficient. V just wants things to be. J holds her responsibilities and requirements higher than the people around her (and i have reasons why i think that applies to mansion j as well but. another time) while v cares more about the lives of herself and the people she cares about.

Actually, when you think about it, we haven't seen J really care for anyone other than Tessa. Which says a lot more than you'd think.

Tessa's gone. Been gone. But when "Tessa" shows up, J is once again obedient and effecient. She's frustrated when her plans are thrown up in the air, and we see that in the mansion as well. She appeals to tessa as much as she can, but when tessa asks her for help in her room, J refuses because she was ordered to. She follows what she's told, and V does everything but.

ANYWAYS! Just food for thought. I think Vuzi is different because it's built on growing to care for someone you'd sworn to kill even if it puts you, them, and your loved ones in danger, while Juzi is built on conflict and picking between love and responsibility, so I view Juzi as toxic yuri and Vuzi as enemies to lovers. (theyre both enemies to lovers but ykwim)

Idk why but labelling Vuzi as toxic yuri jsut feels incorrect to me. Juzi is toxic yuri, my friend. Vuzi is just enemies to lovers yuri. There's a difference
