#Rust x Zero_One

[that-gay-guy-from-hell]

A tragedy in two parts:

Don't worry, Rust gives some head pets later as a "good boy" without actually calling Zero a "good boy".

TLT MASTERLIST

Linked Souls (Updated Version) MSA X TLT Crossover AU

Mystery Skulls X The Living Tombstone Crossover Alternate Universe

————————————————————————————————                                         The Basic Synopsis ———————————————————————————————— After Shinomori retreats back underground after a standstill with Lewis and Mystery, the Mystery Skulls gang spot the possessed green arm scurrying away to an underground cave in the dessert near Tempo which was rumored to have a old mining site where there is an elevator that is thought to be a gateway to the afterlife since people have heard faint music. They find the elevator and end up in what appears to be a cabaret where they meet a group of what appears to be cyborgs or robots with stylized skulls on their faces calling themselves The Living Tombstone. Something or someone is causing both of their universes to bleed in with each other to where a few canon versions of the characters of each universe appears. It is unknown weather if it’s a cataclysmic event or something else entirely. Both Lewis and zero_one have the ability Linked Souls were they are synchronized with each other and make mashups of their songs by mixing up vocals and switching instrumentals making something new and exciting. ————————————————————————————————                         Group Dynamics (Main Characters) ———————————————————————————————— Lewis & zero_one They get along pretty well, but it later becomes a bromance. Lewis seems to sense the human presence within zero_one and gains an empathetic link with them as soon as he entered TLT’s universe. Lewis and zero_one both had visions of their transformation into what they are. Both of them want to know what it all means. Little do they know they have more in common than both of them think, at least at first. ———————————————————————————————— Arthur & Rust Rust found Arthur annoying at first but gradually gains some respect for him once he repairs is star speeder despite coming from the distant future. And Arthur reminds Rust in a lot of ways to zero_one and often cracks some jokes that Arthur is a parallel universe version to the human that zero_one is merged with. Arthur was a tad intimidated at first but likes getting into discussions about machines and general mechanics often. ———————————————————————————————— Vivi, Tesla, & Armstrong Armstrong is rather polite towards Vivi and calls her “Miss Yukino” in a formal almost mentor like manner. While Tesla tends to affectionately call her “Liebchen” (much to Lewis’ annoyance) and has gone so far as to lend is bassmenship to Mystery Skulls if an opportunity arrives. Vivi finds both of them pretty cool and nice to be around, Armstrong in particular reminds her a lot of Lance. ———————————————————————————————— Mystery & Doc They are rather chill with each other. Doc was surprised and impressed that a dog could even play the drums at all. But once he talked Doc’s only reply was “hah.. That’s not your real form isn’t it?” And Mystery finds her and the other tomesonas to be particularly interesting since they are a lot like Lewis but are made through synthetic or non-supernatural means. ———————————————————————————————— Arthur & zero_one Both of them enjoy each other’s company, almost like brothers. Both have confided with each other about their traumas. Rust has gone so far as to say albeit jokingly that Arthur is a parallel version of zero_one’s human component given their personalities and bad luck. ———————————————————————————————— Lewis & Rust They have a bitter rivalry on who’s the best vocalist ; overtime it becomes an unspoken respect for one another. ———————————————————————————————— Arthur & Armstrong Armstrong acts more like a father to Arthur and Arthur in kind looks at Armstrong like his uncle Lance. Both have shared the stories about their arms (even though Arthur only told Armstrong about losing his arm in an accident). ———————————————————————————————— Lewis & Doc Lewis finds her cool to be around and they where both born in Louisiana and have pride in their shared Cajun heritage. Doc is curious on how  Lewis’s locket can contain the deadbeats and if they are pieces of his soul. ————————————————————————————————                       Dynamics with Minor Characters ———————————————————————————————— Lewis & Skulldude* (from Drunk *: TLT Canon Version) Lewis has this oddly familiar feeling similar to that of zero_one but doesn’t have that empathic link. Also he considers him just as annoyingly neurotic as Arthur if not more so but tolerates it nonetheless. Skulldude* was at first surprised that Lewis was a ghost but seems oddly unfazed. Lewis couldn’t tell if he was just that drunk or he was telling the truth. One time after a particularly bad bender, Skulldude* figuratively and literally spilled his guts about his problems while talking to Lewis. Suffice it to say that day was painfully awkward. ———————————————————————————————— Vivi & Haru (from Sunburn) They clicked very shortly, they both geek out over yokai and cryptids. Haru reminds Vivi a lot of her co-worker Cloe. Also they are into anime and cosplay much to dismay of Mystery and every one else. ———————————————————————————————— Mystery & Hina (from Sunburn) Hina seems unfazed by Mystery’s kitsune form then most characters, she thinks it’s cool that a kitsune has a black and red coat coloring. As for Mystery, she reminds him (albeit to an uncomfortable degree) of Mushi, not so much in looks or demeanor but in her strong unflinching spirit. ————————————————————————————————      Major Differences from the Canon Universes ———————————————————————————————— Mystery Skulls ———————————————————————————————— * Before Lewis could get to the crashed van, he spots Shinomori trying to kill Mystery and Vivi ; he was pissed off enough to put aside his revenge just for a moment to nip an ugly tree lady in the bud. She reappears later still looking not only for Mystery but for Lewis and another soul in the Living Tombstone’s universe that has caught her interest. * Arthur, Vivi, & even Mystery can take on temporary ghost forms similar to Lewis but with different elemental affinities and themes to them.    * Arthur: electricity (Steampunk Frankenstein’s monster)    * Vivi: Ice (a Yukiona with Modern Winter Clothes)    * Mystery: darkness and light (a classical kitsune) * They also can summon deadbeats as well but they are not as numerous as Lewis’.  Tesla thinks it might be because there are certain limitations on what they could do while they are in TLT’s universe. It is possible that both their universes will begin to collapse if they push their ghost forms too far. *  But for whatever reason that Tesla can’t explain and is fascinated by is that Lewis and zero_one can synchronize with each other (what he coins as the Linked Souls) without any ill effects (that he knows of). * Lewis gain’s tomesona like characteristics like his human face being more visible under his floating skull and his pompadour turning into a helmet. ———————————————————————————————— The Living Tombstone ———————————————————————————————— * SkullDude (Or Drunk Guy) from the Drunk music video is the one bonded to zero_one in this crossover AU because it would be a little more convenient than pulling a random OC out of nowhere. Also I thought it be an interesting juxtaposition between the bulky, stoic but hot headed ghost Lewis and the scrawny, somewhat sanguine, but sorta neurotic zero_one!Skulldude (though he’s a tad more mellowed out then his canon counterpart and has amnesia but can somehow recognize his prime self much to his dismay). That and I think it’s a missed opportunity that he’s barely a minor character in the TLT’s canon lore of zero_one. But canon!Skulldude does some appearances every now and again. (Mostly for comic relief)    * A little tidbit for reference, apparently in the canon lore Skulldude is a separate character from the person who sings “drunk” who DOES become zero_one. So he’s a composite character in this Crossover AU. * The tomesonas have the ability to somewhat show they’re human forms. They generally have pale unnatural skin complexion and have glowing blood veins correspondent to their color. But the most gruesome parts are covered by clothing sans Armstrong. With zero_one however is unknown but it is assumed by Tesla that it was worse than the process the others went through when they bonded with their tombsonas. He can however reveal his face revealing a similar looking face mask to the canon version but it’s orange and is not a fake replica that was almost permanently glued onto his face as part of a cruel joke while he was hungover by his roommate who he believed was his long time friend in both timelines. * For zero_one, his linked soul form gives him ghost like characteristics like visible ribs outside his suit and a single glowing pupil in his left eye.

Edit  The Tombsona’s also have different host in this AU as well. 

Doc is a woman in her late 20s, Armstrong is a huskier gentleman who’s is his 30’s, And Tesla has a side burns and goatee and in his early 20s. Rust is possibly biracial but his skin is so discolored it’s hard to actually tell.

If you shush Rust, would you place your finger on his mouth or on his skull's mouth? (sarcastic)

That's not actually what Zero is doing but it looked really goofy when I was rendering Rust's helmet lmao Also, I have some other things in the works; non Rust x Zero related things. One has to do with Prometheus and Menoetius (a character I've only briefly touched on and is someone Prometheus would consider a sibling of sorts). It's actually a minor gore piece too, so that's fun. Uhmmm... *clicks tongue* I dunno, I think that's it lmfao

TLT MASTERLIST

[that-gay-guy-from-hell]

Here have this *slaps this on the table*.

Had some random sketches laying around and felt like doodling some Zero x Rust stuff lmao. The meme redraw was something I had sitting around for a while that I just never finished, so I resketched it and put it on here lmao.

TLT MASTERLIST

[that-gay-guy-from-hell]

So, as I said before, I've been suffering from the Rust x Zero_One brain rot. During my sketching of a small 3 panel comic (? Kind of a comic but not really??) of said pairing, I made a small doodle:

I am a whore for "big burly person that's easily flustered X goofy overly romantic and physically affectionate partner"

Also can we talk about if Zero would have fingernails?? Like I'm not sure if they would..? As abhorrent as this sounds, this is the whole "does Doc have nipples?" or "does Doc’s pelvis change depending on the host's body?" type question again (it wasn't/isn't a dirty thing, just a genuine question). Just me overthinking the simplest things... lmfaoooo

TLT MASTERLIST

[that-gay-guy-from-hell]

For some reason my brain is stuck on a "Zero_One x Rust" kick right now and I can't get them out of my head.

Had this in my WIPs folder for a very long time. Zero was done but Rust has half finished... I then re-drew Rust and about 50% of Zero lol. Just something about Rust’s helmet makes me struggle so hard-- I mean, it's not like Doc's top hat where I can just skip it... Rust kinda needs his helmet lol.

Here's the OG photo and Rust’s shirt (100% forgot to post them alongside the drawing in the Discord server 💀 Don't tell anyone lmfao)

Also have some gay live action Rust x Zero for your time-- got these from Twitter:

God Doc is the back makes me die every time. He looks like a sad old man-- reminds me of this:

Like it's so fucking funny.
