There, all better..
Tumblr media
Decided to show the difference between Mason "fixing" Otto, and Elle truly fixing Otto and making him feel like a person again!
When Otto came to Elle about the poor repair Mason had done 7 years prior, and how he had only kept falling apart since then, Elle knew she had to do something. Elle, her wife Ruby, their adopted son Zach, and good friend Talon all chipped in to help Otto feel like himself again.
They were beyond successful and Otto finally felt whole again. Although, Mason wasn't too happy about Elle "stealing his creation"... (insert Copycat Conundrum arc here lol)
There, All B̙̙̾E̢̢ͮT̼̼̾T̼̼̾E̢̢ͮR̦̦͌!
Tumblr media
the event that made Dr. Mason start to go mad with power and ego, bringing someone back from the dead and (badly) preserving him. Bringing Otto back from the brink of death made Mason wonder just what else he could do, regardless if it's ethical or not.
my partner gave me this idea so I did it :3
I was gonna make Mason look more crazed like like a hunched back and more crazy eyes, but I think the perfect posture and wide smile make him equally creepy. we believe that this was the start of his switch in personality from a simple scientist who wanted to improve the world to a mad scientist who was going to help, whether you wanted it or not :)
this is the beginning of Mason's little villain arc, if you want to read the heart of it, Copycat Conundrum, then it's right here!

Krystal and her little admirer! Kyle fell and fell HARD for her, but can ya blame him? According to Krystal, hes "the most adorable idiot I've ever met, and he's smart too!" He loves sitting in the workshop and watching her work, or ramble about weapons.
Tumblr media
Krystal is an older OC I decided to bring back into the lore,, and looks like Kyle found something in her that he likes, bc the two have become super close in the span of a week or two!
After some teasing from his adoptive brothers and moms, he decided to shoot his shot! although, I doubt he'd miss, Krystal is head over heels for him too 😉

"I've seen some things. Things I wish I didn't. I can't unsee those things. I was only a kid."
Tumblr media
I feel like people forget that 3 was only a teenager when agent work started. They've definitely seen things that's scared them for life.

“Okay, Shay. Whoever wins this next race has to make dinner. You game?”
“Oh please, Bryce. I’ll make you eat my dust!”
These two are competitive to the core, but i guess that’s what happens when two of the best racers in Mario Kart end up together.
this took like a week jesus i never wanna render a background AGAIN

Copycat Conundrum
Prologue
a little bit of context: this story takes place in the Splatlands around september 2023!
“Why? Why did you ruin him?!”
Mason exclaimed from a higher ground. C-7K was as good as gone now, and it was her fault. Elle looked up in his direction, clearly angered. Otto wanted this update, he was practically begging for it, as well as a cyborg could beg. He was out of date and rusting, Elle couldn't just sit there and watch it grow worse!
“Ruin? No no no, we fixed him. He was so out of date and his suit was rusting, so we updated his code, gave him a new suit, an aerospray that actually works, and overall made him work and operate better, so now he isn't running on the cyborg equivalent of Windows 95!”
Mason looked on in disgust, but did not have a chance to add his opinion before Elle continued.
“He was neglected, just like your other creations. You have a habit of that, you know? You just toss your work aside when it isn't the way you want it! Believe me, I KNOW how it feels to be neglected and abandoned by the people who created you, and it fucking sucks! I believe no being, whether organic or mechanical, should ever have to feel like that.”
“Spare me your sentimental nonsense! You kidnapped him!”
“No I didn't! Otto CAME to ME! He knew I would do it, and I did!
“It's ‘C-7K’! You programmed him to think otherwise, didnt you?”
Elle rolled her eyes in annoyance. Would he ever get the point? She wasn't trying to steal him, it just pained her to see something with so much potential go to waste!
“No, I didn't. He CHOSE to go by Otto again, as he told me he felt like I gave him a part of his humanity back!”
Mason looked down, angered. He slowly scaled down the platform he was standing on, and approached Elle. Now, Otto was just another thing Elle could get right and he couldn't. No matter how much he studied her work and tech, he could never understand why her stuff worked and his didn't.
“Oh great, now he's just one of your ‘perfect’ and ‘no flaw’ creations! Believe it or not, I know what I'm doing! We might have different ideas, but we share the same goal as inventors!”
“Mason, Name one thing other than Otto that didn't immediately blow up in your face.”
“The creation of Rebel! Sure, it didn't exactly go to plan, but he didn't explode!”
“Metaphorically it sure as hell did! He fuckin’ hates you! Sure, I’ll give you props for creating organic life, Frankenstein style as I'm no bio science nerd, But it wouldn't have hurt to try and care for or about him! Instead of tossing him to the side!”
Mason crossed his arms and turned his head.
“Whatever. I don't need YOU to tell me how flawed MY inventions are! C-7K was perfect until you and that good-for-nothing octoling ruined him!”
Elle’s eyes widened slightly, before looking at Mason, her vacant eyes now filled with anger. She raised her inkbrush, as if ready to strike him.
“Good for nothing? That is my SON and don't you DARE spit on his name!”
“You’re not even his mother! He isn't biologically connected to you, so you have no right to call yourself his mom!”
“Oh wow, is that the same fucking mindset you have about Rebel? Just because you two don't share any DNA does not mean you’re not responsible for him! Whether or not you care to admit it, Rebel is YOUR son, and you need to take responsibility.”
Mason looked down at Elle, slightly amused how she got all worked up about her ‘son’.
“You know what? Enjoy your new little cyborg you stole from me while he lasts. I’ll be back to take back what's mine.”
With those words, Mason spun on his heel and super-jumped away, back towards his lab. Elle slowly lowered her brush, letting the anger fizzle out, and process what just happened. She began to wonder if what she did was bad, and to her, Zach, Talon, and Ruby, it wasn't. She saw someone in need of help, and she helped! Before she could think anymore on the morality of the situation, she turned and jumped to the palace to her workshop, to find Ruby and Zach.
