I wont stop! I'll chase the clouds from over Rubicon!

V. IV Rusty still called me buddy... 🥺

I kinda like Steel Haze v1 more, buuut mechs are still hard to draw!

G1 Michigan: V. IV load the next shell!

V. IV Rusty: Way ahead of you commander.

Michigan: Finally! Someone with their head screwed on straight! You ever think about switchin' sides?

Rusty, flustered, knowing full well he is already a double agent for the RLF: haha nooooooo... ;)

I seriously can't stop myself from thinking about names in AC6.

Handler Walter calls them 621. A number. A distancing tool. He still gets attached to his dogs regardless, though.

Ayre calls them Raven. A symbol of freedom, a name with meaning. It is a name they stole, but it's also a name they earn.

Carla and Chatty call them tourist. It's what they are - just another person stepping on the locals to have their little fun and take their home's resources. ...resources they want to eradicate but still

Rusty calls them Buddy. A friendly nickname, used both to raise your spirits and lower your defences. A dog and a wolf.

Iguazu calls them Freelancer, Merc, Freak. He just fuckin hates them. He hates their superior skills and their freedom most of all.

G13. Hound. Dog. Intruder. Wallclimber. Worm Killer. Imposter. Registration # Rb23 - call sign Raven.

But who are they? They don't choose their own name. The only name they get to really choose is the names of their ACs. Everyone else calls them whatever they want. Something Something what's in a name.

hi buddy

You ever get emotional about the weirdest shit? V.IV Rusty is a great character but really isn't the most complex ever written, but the way the singer in 'Rusted Pride' sings the line 'I can fly' with such pain and desperation gets me.

They're on a date

V. IV Rusty is my babygirl

In the Liberator of Rubicon ending, an RLF ground troop says over coms to "Deploy the Schneider AC", what are they referring to? Is it Rusty's old AC STEEL HAZE, given that its made of Schneider parts? Or something else?

I got armored core 6 recently. Why is rusty hot?

ME AND THE BESSTIEEE :3

When V. IV Rusty says "So buddy, who needs you?" and it could be a biting commentary about the corps-driven war being useless to real people with real needs. Or it could be a call to action to stop the corps and save the Rubiconians from the destructive power of endless greed and boundless power. But in your secret heart you just want to say "You do, Rusty. You need me." and sure you're fighting on opposite sides right now, but that never stopped Snake and Ocelot from being exceptionally gay together, so why should it stop Rusty and me?

[nightmaresyrup]

V. IV Rusty, He's got your back, he's your buddy and he'll offer you coffee!

What flavor? Why it's STEEL HAZELNUT, that's what!

... Ahh crap I might have himbofied again!

[axonnofficial]

v. iv Rusty after Operation Wallclimber: Hey Raven, just wanted to be straight with you. I'm sorry for leaving you to deal with the Juggernaut alone but the Vespers' top brass wanted you dead.

augmented human c4-621: 😐

v. iv Rusty literally like fifteen minutes later: Hey, Raven! It's Rusty, your ol' pal from the Vespers! Got another job for you.

c4-621: ... yeah sure what's up
