[ID: photo of two small canvas boards. One is painted orange with a Stardew Valley cow sticking its tongue out, the other is light blue with a green Junimo. End ID.]

I got some lil teeny canvas boards last week (like 3x3") and they're perfect for little things like this! Obviously I've had Stardew on the brain lately so I made these lol

[ID: 5 panel comic featuring human versions of Bionicle characters. Kopeke, shirtless, points to two scars under his chest and shrugs. Matoro, who is looking at them, says "No, I've never seen scars like these either, Kopeke..." He then asks "Do you want me to ask Turaga Nuju about them?" Kopeke covers his chest and shakes his head, shy and embarrassed. Matoro says "Okay, well, as long as they don't hurt it's probably fine." A full black panel says "1000 years later" in both the Matoran font and English. A young woman waves towards Kopeke in his Toa form, smiling. There is an arrow pointing to her labelled "Vo-Matoran" and one pointing to Kopeke labelled "Vo-Toa." The same woman looks up at Kopeke confusedly as he looks into the middle distance with a bemused smile, thinking "oh." The thought balloon is coloured like the trans flag. End ID.]

Local Vo-Matoran Gets Amnesia, Forgets He's Trans

Technically this is more A Company of Toa fanart even though this doesn't happen in the actual fic, but I just think the idea of Kopeke straight up forgetting he's been a trans man this whole time because he doesn't know that Vo-Matoran are assigned girl is very funny

(Not pictured: Tamaru cheering and jumping around and yelling because one of her brothers is trans like her!!!!!!!)

Context for non-Bionicle followers under the cut:

Okay so in Bionicle gender is tied to your element. Of the six main elements (fire, water, earth, air, stone, and ice), only one (water) is female, the rest are male. Altogether, out of sixteen total elements, only three (water, lightning, and psionics) are girls. (Light and shadow can be either but we only ever meet one female representative of each because the design team was weird about gender but we're not getting into all that.)

Kopeke, like all Metru Nui Matoran, got amnesia before the start of the story. Previously, he would have known he was a Vo-Matoran (lightning element), but on arrival to Mata Nui the Turaga didn't know how many secondary element Matoran there were, so they lumped them in with the six main element ones and hoped for the best. This was presumably fine for most people, and also there were so few secondary element Matoran that it wouldn't make sense to split them all up by element so strictly. So Kopeke has spent the last 1000 years assuming he's a Ko-Matoran (ice element, male), and straight up does not remember that he's transgender until he meets more Vo-Matoran after becoming a Toa and going "hey wait a tic"

[ID: digital drawing of Miku, leaning over the back of an IBM 7094 computer, smiling and looking down at it. There is a coffee mug that says "World's Greatest Grandpa" on the front of the IBM. The background is a blue circle with a white daisy in it, surrounded by the words "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer, do" and music notes around the outside. End ID.]

Good morning! Teacher AU update time

Summary: Tahu asks for advice.

[magicalgirlartist]

[ID: 6 panel comic featuring humanized Bionicle characters. Hewkii faces forward, one hand to his chest worriedly, saying "Macku, I...I have something to tell you." A closeup on the side of Hewkii's neck to see his gills as he says "I'm amphibious." Another closeup of his outstretched hand, Macku grabbing it with both of hers, cutting him off as he says "I hope that doesn't change any-" Macku, facing forward, beams as she holds Hewkii's hand, saying "Of course not! That's wonderful, Hewkii! Love who you love!" Hewkii's face, looking mildly perplexed in a chibi style. Hewkii and Macku from the side, Hewkii smiling awkwardly while Macku blushes and looks embarrassed. Hewkii says "I'm capable of surviving in both land and aquatic environments" and Macku interrupts him with "OH." End ID.]

Comic version of this post from last year because I still think it's really funny lol

Bonus:

[ID: digital drawing of human versions of Kotu and Macku. Kotu has one arm outstretched offscreen and the other hand on her hip, angrily saying "How did you forget what "amphibious" means you've lived surrounded by water for your ENTIRE LIFE" while Macku covers her face with both hands and says "I DON'T KNOW I saw that he was big now and panicked" end ID]

[ID: 3 panel comic featuring human versions of Bionicle characters. Hahli blushes and holds her hands to her chest with surprise, saying "C-Captain Jaller!" Jaller, a young man with short blonde hair and an open red vest, blushes and says "Hahli?" Both panels have shojo bubbles and white sparkles in the background. Onepu, with purple hair and gloves, frowns and gestures towards them, saying "Why does he get to be "Captain Jaller" but I'm just "Onepu?"" Behind him, Macku smirks and holds a hand to her chin, saying "lol, lmao even." end ID.]

Finished up this post from last year of a goof bit from the Bionicle Sports Anime that exists in my head. Onepu is so annoyed. He and Jaller are the same rank. It's the lack of respect >:(

[ID: 2 digital drawings of humanized Bionicle characters. In the first, Nuparu, a young man with messy orange hair and freckles, props his chin in both hands and looks sadly off to the side, saying "Mata Nui gives his toughest battles to his most autistic Matoran..." while on the other side an arrow points to him saying "(got told to clean his workshop)." In the second, Matoro, a young man with a long sand-blue braid and white winter jacket, holds up a finger while facing forward and looking up, saying "Excuse me! He ask for no pickles." Behind him to the right is Kopeke, a slightly taller young man with a white shawl and goggles, hands in his pockets, looking away to the side and blushing slightly. The background is a stock photo of a fast food restaurant. End ID.]

Decided to clean up and colour some sketches from last year! Still trying to reconfigure Nuparu a little but otherwise happy with them overall.

[ID: 3 digital drawings of human Bionicle characters: Tamaru, Kopeke, and Macku. In the first, Tamaru, wearing a long teal overcoat, smiles and runs to the left holding a big trans flag behind her, smiling. At the bottom left it says "Ch. 2: Calm Before the Storm "I'm a bravesister of Le-Koro!"" In the second, Kopeke, silhouetted against a starry sky and snowy ground, sits in the middle of a lightning strike, looking and reaching upwards. At the bottom it says "Chapter 5: Bitter Work (Part 1) "The last thing Kopaka saw before the world seemed to go white was Kopeke sitting in the center of the blast, the Toa of Lightning crackling with the power of the sudden storm."" In the third, Kopeke sits with his knees pulled up to his chest, with Macku kneeling beside him on the left and Tamaru sitting beside him with her hand on his shoulder on the right. They're all on a stone wall. At the bottom left, it says "Ch. 23: "Picking Up the Pieces" "Kopeke frowned, curling his knees up against his torso before shaking his head dismissively. He'd be fine." End ID.]

I've wanted to do some fanart for @byz-was-here's fanfic A Company of Toa for ages and finally got to do it! These are a few of my favourite parts of the story so far, mostly featuring my boy Kopeke because of how much I love a him. <3 I have some more ideas as well but they're going to take longer (they're going to wind up being comics lmao) so here are these ones! Please read ACOT if you like canon-compliant what-if AU fics! (It's not actually a human!bonkle fic I just. don't want to draw robots lol)
