You know I fucking ADORE the implication that William is so jealous of his buisness partner cus Henry can build the animatronics and he can't. Like yeah I'm gonna murder your kid over the robot furries. I'm gonna worship you in my secret diaries soooooooo hard cus you made a funny bear in a tophat that sings ABBA songs.

I am very interested in these ocs
*cracks knuckles*
OKAY!
(you have opened Pandora's box >:D )
So a quick background on this fandom so I'm not just spouting incomprehensible gibberish. Nier Automata is a game where humanity has been driven off the planet and into lunar colonies by invading aliens, who used machine lifeforms as their weapons. Humans responded by creating androids to fight against the machines. The androids and machines have been in a stalemate for centuries.
I have 2 OCs, Izzy and Vira. They're both androids. Izzy is a nickname for 11S, a scanner type model. Scanners specialize in recon and data gathering. She is overly curious, which is a known quirk of all scanners. For her, it comes up as she keeps picking up viruses from when she's hacking/scanning machines.
Vira, I don't have a model number for. But she's stationed on the Bunker, the orbiting space station that's this android group's base of operations. She works in hacking, debugging, and repairs. Basically she's an android doctor. She got the nickname because she's very good at dealing with viruses. Which she got because she works a lot with Izzy, who keeps picking up the damn logic viruses from the enemy, Izzy, you gotta be more careful!
If I go too far into the storyline it'll give spoilers for the actual game, but I'll give the setup for where I basically intend to start their story. Izzy picks up a virus and doesn't contain it well enough. She gets detained and wiped. Factory reset. This is sad, but it happens (pretty frequently, actually. The game is very philosophical about what it means to be who we are and how our memories affect our concept of 'self', which is a fascinating concept to play around with when you've got androids who literally upload and download their memory data).
Except Izzy has gone and done this enough times that the higher-ups decided to tinker with her settings on this reset. So the next time Vira sees model 11S, she's viscerally off-put because that's not Izzy. That's not her friend. This isn't right.
So Vira gets hit hard by the denial stage of grief. By which I mean she finds the data that wasn't uploaded to the server from Izzy's memory (because it's virus infested) and basically.... downloads it into herself. In a quarantined section, of course! She's not self-terminating! And then, because she's now on borrowed time until she gets found out and she gets wiped, she runs. She manages to get herself and Izzy's data down to Earth and starts hiding out among the other androids on the surface that aren't directly affiliated with the group she's from. Now she just has to do enough debugging to get Izzy's data decontaminated, and she can bring her friend back.

i get so frustrated with ppl who wont just fucking help themselvessss. obviously theres a spectrum of pain and subsequent ability when it comes to mental illness but ive known so many people specifically gay people who let themselves live in squalor all while going to therapy taking medication and claiming to take care of themselves. thats the thing self care is NOT doing nothing, self care is actually doing the dishes sorry. its taking the trash out. calling the doctor and making an appointment. being an ADULT. i live with two people in their mid to late 20s who only do a chore once every few weeks and if i ever deign to bring it up i get either aggressive or apologetic responses about depression and struggle. as if im not constantly struggling. i force myself to do things bc they make me feel better… me and you are not all that different. ignoring your human life maintenance or outsourcing it to other ppl is the biggest form of self harm thats become normalized in certain communities

chapter 6 of the strawberries are dying, my byler 1930s au, is now up!
“Would you care to learn to read?”
Will, who was currently holding a hoe, nearly dropped it upon hearing the voice at his shoulder. He whipped around, and was consequently met with the big, handsome, rather cow-like brown eyes of Mike Wheeler.
Mike Wheeler, who had talked to him yesterday and been hilariously bad at it; Mike Wheeler, with who he had felt his heart race upon seeing; Mike Wheeler, who was now rocking on his heels, hands clasped behind his back in expectancy.

i love to imagine my perfect future with someone, where im safe and loved and respected and everything is just fine. im able to speak my mind and be tired and hurt and cared for while also being independent and not having to constantly rely on someone else. im able to do what i want without running it by them first. i tell them what im up to and what im thinking and who im with and where i am bc i want them to know, not bc i feel like i have to. i want to slowly let someone in and get to know how to love me gradually instead of letting the wave hit all at once.

chews me up, spits me out
chews me up, spits me out
taissa & van | [ao3]
why has no one mentioned van in the 2021 timeline? taissa needs help, and van has answers no one wants.
You’ve had her phone number saved for all these years, ever since the PI you hired in 2014 sent you a blurry picture of her, accompanied with the message She’s out, NYC 06-17-14, a phone number, and a now inactive CUNY email address. No one else talks about her: everyone had split into two camps when you were rescued. Those who buried whatever happened, whatever else was out there deep inside, and those who didn’t.
You were in the first group: Howard, Columbia Law, perfect wife and son, and a pharmacy of sleeping pills in your medicine cabinet.
Van was not.

the team definitely has some sort of team bonding exercise (OR for fun, you cannot tell me hunk and pidge havent stuck themselves together once or twice because they were bored and wanted to see how they’d do if they ever got fused together or something idc the weirdest shit happens in the world of voltron) where you’re stuck to somebody and try to to basic day to day tasks like eat or train together
it was initially made by keith to strengthen the bond between everyone but ended up engaging in some interesting interactions like bathroom breaks
daniel n vince would either be the best or the worst at this exercise, daniel just screams impulsive (i mean have you seen him?) while vince is more collected and relaxed so they’d be all over eachother in ways thats hella concerning but eventually they’d get used to eachother and balance eachother out (not without their fair share of tripping over eachother)
one things for certain I REFUSE TO BELIEVE NONE OF THE VOLTRON CAST DOESNT HAVE SCARS THEYVE BEEN WORKING FOR YEARS AGAINST WADE AND LOTOR U CAN KISS MY ASS, also vince definitely has markings from his powers prove me wrong
