I took part in the @cp77nyexchange this year and got to work on a gift for @maimaiapologist :D Here's Sal and Yorinobu at a fancy corpo party (but probably they're both undercover and scheming their next moves 👀). Hope you like it!!

Happy new year, and thanks for the organisation of the exchange! 😁

Just a little something different!

Here’s my V and Kerry Eurodyne from Cyberpunk 2077 (my absolute FAVORITE game in all of history). FYI I know he’s gay in game but he’s NOT in the source material. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

The pose is based on Robert Pattinson’s and Zoe Kravitz’s Wonderland magazine issue for The Batman (another one of my favorite things).

Anywho, hope you enjoy!!

"Your padawan will be back in the Temple at nine!" vs "Your padawan calls me Master too"

sith Kou before and after retrieving the Emperor's holocron :3

what? this AU DOES have a plotline and I think it's time to share it. It's a bit messy (as all of my info dumps lmao) yet you can get an idea!

Cast and Lore

The Emperor (played by Saburo Arasaka)

The Evil Guy. Had been ruling the galaxy with terror and fear for ages until the day his flagman ship Michiko The Discipline was crushed into the black hole. The survivors, mostly soldiers and some officers were punished accordingly for letting the Emperor die.

Widely known as a wise man and great strategist, left a lot of relics and holocrons after his death.

The Heir (played by Yorinobu Arasaka)

The son and apprentice of the Emperor, he took his father’s place and kept it for years despite not being the strongest guy among the Sith elites. He follows the Dark Side ways, and perfectly wields his anger and hatred, yet he tries to reform the Empire, slowly, because the elites could rebel to keep the status quo.

Has an apprentice, a young zabrak named Kou, to whom he pays much less attention than to the Empire problem, sure that her fear of him is unbreakable.

The Smuggler (played by Goro Takemura)

Ex an imperial navy officer, and a witness to the Emperor's death. Managed to escape imperial justice with a help of a group of force-blind rebels. Fought on their side for a couple of years but they had more losses than wins, so, tired of pointless fights and losing friends, Goro left the Empire’s space to become a smuggler.

Bitter and disappointed, he appears to care only about money, but deep inside his chest the old secret — the truth that the Emperor was killed by his own son — still burns, asking for vengeance.

Lord Kou (sith on her way to become Darth, played by Kou Okada)

Kou started her way as a Jedi padawan; since she was a youngling she had severe problems with discipline but was strong with the Force and loyal as a dog, and her master truly believed she would make a great Jedi knight one day. 

Unfortunately, it wasn’t going to happen: during the mission on Nar Shaddaa she followed her temptation and left the safe house. Kou got herself into trouble, her master came to save her but opened his presence in the Force to a powerful sith. Kou ended up whitnessing her master being killed, and it was her fault, at least that's what she was told by his murderer. The sith noticed her potential and took her as an apprentice. It took Kou some time to realize how “lucky” she was — her new master turned out to be the Heir, the ruler of the Empire.

Her hatred towards the Heir was strong, but her loyalty never belonged to him, so she was looking for ways to kill him and break free. She managed to break into a secret room inside his chambers and steal some powerful relic, which connected her to a Force ghost.

So Kou found an unlikely ally: another victim of the Heir, not only killed by him but attached to the relic, unable to dissolve into the Force. The ghost was eager to take revenge and promised Kou to teach her the ritual that would weaken the Heir’s connection to the Force so she would strike him easily.

The Heir was paying little attention to his apprentice business so she managed to gather all the necessities for the ritual and attacked her master. The Force ghost didn’t lie: the ritual weakened the Heir and Kou had her win over him. But what the ghost didn’t say was that this ritual would also open a way for him to possess the Heir’s body.

The moment it happened Kou knew that she committed an act of irreversible evil. She felt the presence again, the one she was used to since she was a kid and the one that disappeared the day the Emperor died. 

Scared of what she’s done she fled away to hide and heal and to think what to do next. She wanted to break free but instead, she returned the biggest slave owner back to the world. And this spot in her mind that felt empty after the force ghost took a new body… she felt it all the time, her long leash, the force connection that wasn’t broken; she knew her new master could pull it any moment.

But to strike the evil she must have found his secrets and weak points, so she had to come to Korriban. She needed a ride, and she got it: the smuggler took her to Korriban, but surprisingly decided to stay and help her strike The Heir once more. Kou was ready to use her new asset, so she kept the truth of the Emperor's return away from the smuggler's ears. However, during the Emperor’s relics hunt the hidden truth was discovered, and the fragile bond that was growing between the Sith and the smuggler, got broken. 

They parted their ways, but the Force had its plans for them, and after time they met again: her, with a lead for the most precious Emperor’s holocron, broken mind and some dull pain inside her soul she didn’t know how to name, and him, cooled down, reminded by his old rebel friends of who was truly responsible for the Empire injustice to force blinds citizens, and this surprisingly strong joy of seeing her again.

Partners once more, they hunted and reclaimed Saburo’s holocron, the only thing left was to study it and find a way to strike the old evil… and not lose themselves.

OC files: Verona Silverhand

alias: V birth name: Verona X (gave up her surname when she left home and no longer remembers it) date of birth: september 13, 2050 affiliations: none the lore: feared merc assassin V doesn't have enemies; she has people she wants dead, and then they die. [tbc] the truth: the child of two neglectful night city junkies, verona was on her own from the moment she was born. leaving home at eleven and forced to become a pickpocket to survive, she was hardened early to the cruelty of corps and capitalism. for over ten years, V lived on the streets, before realizing that the city was going to swallow her if she didn't set her sights a little higher. so against her better judgement, she took a revenge job, robbing a maelstrom new recruit named rowen bane. she was caught, but rather than ratting her out, rowen was impressed and took a liking to her. they began a volatile and opportunistic relationship; he passed her name on to his superiors, and verona was contracted out for covert jobs when they needed her. but eventually maelstrom's leader, brick, contacted the thief and demanded she join the gang under threat of violence. in response, verona threatened to release maelstrom secrets; this was the wrong move, and brick made an attempt on her life. deciding NC was too dangerous for her to stay, verona broke for atlanta. altanta was more of the same, and didn't feel like home the way night city did. so verona returned, thinking two years was enough time for maelstrom to have forgotten about her. even so, she took on the alias "V" as a means of protection. while doing a botched thievery gig, V met ex-valentino jackie welles and became his best friend, part of his family, even. they began doing small-time merc jobs, trying to make a name for themselves, before being contacted by one dexter deshawn, a fixer running from a past of his own. the arasaka heist dex planned was a bust; V not only lost her best friend, but gained a brain-overwriting engram – who also happened to be the rockerboy that blew arasaka tower to the ground, none other than johnny silverhand. though their start was rocky, v and johnny quickly came to an understanding, finding closeness and compassion for each other as their personalities melded. eventually, they admitted they'd both die for each other, and that their unique bond was closer to love than either of them had felt before. V fought tooth and nail to save them both, forming alliances along the way that proved both her talent and tact. she went on to find a solution in arasaka's mikoshi, but while moving through the tower discovered johnny's body, intact and perfectly preserved. she eliminated yorinobu arasaka, made a deal with his sister, hanako, and won freedom for both herself and johnny. V is retired now, passing jobs on to her apprentice and adopted little brother, osiris, and dodging calls to take over the afterlife from rogue. you can find her living with johnny and their klepped dalmatian, sam, in a bungalow above the flooded remains of laguna bend.

I hit an intense creative block and I struggled a bit, so I decided to make a long photostory to combat the blockage.

This is a headcanon of mine, where Goro and Vaughn are still very much together and happy four years later. They thought Arasaka was the past and would leave them alone, but as it turns out, Arasaka has a hard time letting things go. So to get back at Vaughn for ruining everything for them, what better way to destroy him than to try and take the one person who means the most to him. You can take a wild guess on who has a strong vendetta against Goro for betraying him and running off with a mercenary instead of keeping his loyalty.

There will probably be a part two. This is more sap than seriousness, but it’s just the beginning. I had a lot of fun doing this and getting back into my creativity.
