So I actually redrew these almost a month ago, oops. I plan on eventually finishing my redraw of the "crowbar" piece as well!
Featuring Aquatonauts Raz and Sasha! Even though his family is very in tune with their hydrokinesis, Raz can't shake the fear from his prerecognition visions. He has a tendency to scramble up the nearest person-- usually Sasha-- for safety when he feels afraid.
Sasha practically helped raise Raz from a baby, so he tries not to complain. He just puts up with his clingy son.
But seriously -- meet my OC, Sybille -- Lili's mom in my au!
More below the cut, including spoilers for PSYN 2
Sybille is the youngest of Otto Mentallis' three children, taking after her late mother Sylvia physically but being just like her father in every other way.
Sybille has known Truman since they were young, 6 and 7 respectively-- meeting when Bob joined the future Psychic 7. The two became best friends almost immediately, and growing up they held that bond-- beginning to date in their Junior year of highschool, and getting married at 24-25 (two years after the Deluge of Grulovia)
Their first daughter Lori was born when Sybille was 28, and Lili came along four years later when Sybille was 32.
Sybille tried to be a good mom, tried to be there for her kids, but as work got more overbearing she ended up putting her research first-- things getting so tense that when Lili was 8, Sybille and Truman went on break.
Sybille continued with her constant working and travelling, only returning when she heard about Truman being kidnapped-- and this time she really hopes to be more available to her family.

I put too much work into this timeline, I know -- if you're interested in it at all lmk, I have plenty more to ramble about... Mostly about Otto. Otto is the most developed character in the entire au.
desire to draw raz's hair unhatted and uncombed spiraled into imagining an extended gag about some emergency situation forcing all of the psychonauts out of the motherlobe into the quarry in their jammies at like 2 am and judging each other's clothing choices instead of getting actual work done.
Holy crap -- this au randomly got some attention last night and I'm still reeling because I don't usually get much attention on my work?? Aside from that one vision sketch page.
But here are some side profiles, I promise I'll make actually digital art eventually.
Please send in asks about this au, requests too-- I need any and every excuse to ramble and draw more and it motivates me when people engage
Why are people surprised that folks are simping over the Red guy?
When there was (and still is) literal motherfuckers thirsting over a damn clock and a computer as well (I am unapologetically one of those Colin simps and I donโt care what yโall think).
