Can we plz get a Benrey and Tommy family lore drop/explanation

OH BOY. well here’s the complete rundown to all that I have figured out.

The Benrey Lore:

Benrey Nilabi was born a runt in a place called Cerutina, one of the many places that connects to Xen. (Cerutinans are blue-eyed shapeshifting beings that all hold a sort of deep subconscious hivemind. Bc Benrey is a runt he isn’t connected to this hivemind and is less empathetic/emotionally connected than his family and peers but still tries to through sweet voice. He also lacks the faster healing factor/ extreme shapeshifting that other Cerutinans have.)

He used to live there with his mom, Momma Moola and his abusive older brother, Arden Ardven, and his 16 other younger siblings on a farm until his Arden got a bit too abusive and which resulted in Arden losing his eye in a fight with Ben, which then turned to Ben leaving the farm off to Xen then to Earth.

Momma Moola then died to to a chronic illness not too long after with the rest of his siblings choosing to scatter across the galaxy to pursue their own careers (which is typical for Cerutinans, as most are nomadic and love to integrate themselves into different cultures.) Few stayed on the farm. Arden ended up getting arrested and locked up in a galactic prison bc of his less than savory/ violent preferences on how an alien society should be.

The Tommy Lore:

Thomas “Tommy” Coolatta was adopted into a family of 3, that of his strange yet caring Father (G-Dad), his two-faced eldest sister Evelyn “Evie” Chiller, and his older brother, Graham Chillatta.

Evie was unintentionally raised as a bit of a megalomaniac with a strive for perfection with a hint of businessman savvy. After Tommy was adopted she got extremely bitter of her father’s different methods in raising him, feeling negatively towards the both of them.

Meanwhile Graham was raised in the shadows feeling inadequate about everything, including himself (he’s got a list of medical conditions, one of them causes him to feel he can’t quite emotionally connect to other people. When he isn’t working on projects, he often surrounds himself with paid prostitutes and hype men so he “feels some sort of connection” even if it’s the artificial kind.)

Evie saw this in Graham and as the two got older they distanced themselves from G-Man and Tommy to pursue their own business ventures. Graham sees Evie as the only person he has a real relationship with (the familial kind. Not the gross kind lmao. JUST TO BE CLEAR.) which makes Evie just take advantage of him easily.

Their lore gets wonky from here but just know that Evie and Graham run a business where it seems all hunky dory from the outside but is really just a coverup so Graham can experiment on life forms. (OH and that the trio are reincarnations of a being that was made of light that created the universe but exploded that resulted in the creation of planets and such whaaaat?)

AND THATS AS MUCH AS I LORE I COULD GIVE. COMPRESSED. If there’s any specific character/ thing you want to know more about just ask. I’m tired lol

Most important, remember I am human and these are optional fun things I do on the side. I try to do as many as I can, but I draw them in between other projects and by random. So do not spam, force, or harass me to do your request faster or change the finished one (unless it's a character detail I missed). Some may never get drawn and I need to understand that too. However, if I deny a request, I'll let you know instead of leaving it in my inbox forever.

If you can't come up with a prompt (optional btw, you can request a character only if you'd like) or want to mix it up, you can ask me to randomize a: pallet, song, emoji, expression, action, or word.

Please clarify which fandom you're asking for, as they may have characters with the same name.

Ships allowed (LGBTQ+ included), but understand I won't draw kid/adult, romantic kid/kid, or anyone with a family-like relationship.

Wreck-It Ralph

Any character from either movie. My favorite is Felix, but again I'm really down for any character!

For ships, I'm only up for Hero's Cuties (Felix/Calhoun) atm sorry.

Because the fandom is so scarce, AUs and OCs are okay too!

Half-Life VR but the AI is Self-Aware

Any character as long as I can figure out who they are. My favorites are to draw are Benrey and Gordon, but I love everyone honestly!

Hmmmm ships? I'm down for drawing Frenrey, Boomer, or Sodashipping, I don't mind. (Secondary, I'm down for Freelatta, Tomrey, Darzen, and more. Don't be afraid to ask!)

any combination of pairs in the CMY trio always forces the third to mediate because when they are anything other than a trio they just Immediately go at each other's throats. like hibiki and cain sibling-bicker Constantly to the point tex has to literally physically pry them apart; cain and tex are so annoyed with each other's bullshit all the time that they Basically wanna kill each other and hibiki has to literally fly up to their eye levels and step between them to break em apart; the only odd one out is really hibiki and tex because it's mostly just hibiki being frustrated with tex being too overprotective and not taking him seriously enough, which Will most definitely cause fights, but the thing is cain is just Not a good mediator he either will grab some popcorn and encourage it or he'll side with tex because he thinks it's funny to make hibiki More Mad. and then you get the rare fourth combo of Hibiki VS Cain+Tex in which hibiki wants to kill Both of them [but he doesn't want to Do Violence so he instead runs off to be angry by himself]

I FORGOT TO POST HER HERE I'M SO SORRY! Originally posted June 13th, 2023 on twitter

I don't normally use colored pencils or much color at all, but my sibling brought up the idea of just using CMY for a piece and well... why not?

So Uta as a CMY study! I kinda like how she turned out so I may do more of these ^_^

[palominocorn]

NOTE: The RBY paletee is still basically defunct as the influence of digital art and home printing make CMYK almost universal anyway. Which is nice, because as a kid CMYK was used in exactly 2 places: prepping books/magazines for print, and stage lighting.

It's a vastly better system than RBY in almost all cases, excpet when you want to do a canvas painting with Older Pigment Paints, not even the contemporary stuff. It's popular now mostly for its undeniable historical and restoration value. Can't restore an RBY painting using CMYK colour theory, you'll ruin it.

Also, I'm posting this partially for educational and partially leftist reasons, but also, partially, to tell this story again.

My sibling and I are at a family friend's. The friend and I are talking color: LEDs, the difficulty in making orange look right on many screens, magenta as not corresponding to a wavelength, and so forth.

I don't remember how it came up exactly, but I bring up the thing about RGB being opposites of CMY. (In computer terms.)

My sibling gets very, very quiet for several minutes. Then, our of nowhere, after the friend and I had moved on to talking about... cats? Knitting? Childrearing practices? My sibling shoves their phone in my face and screams "SEE, YOU'RE WRONG, RED AND GREEN ARE OPPOSITES!"

(They had a six section color wheel up on their screen.)

It was such a bizarre and needlessly hostile interaction that to this day I'm like ??? What are you trying to prove here exactly?

[pistachi0art]

Your printer is running low on ink- 🖨️

[pistachi0art]

Just saying I would lowkey love to read more about the CMY siblings + Gordons' involvement in it mentioned in one of the last answers if you're up for it. You've got me hooked on your interpretation of these characters/your ocs omfg

YEAHHH ok so this is a brief idea of how the cmy story was gonna go:

Evie goes to Arden and hires him to kill her brother in exchange for less time imprisoned + letting him take out his own brother.

MEANWHILE 👇

Kell wants to reconnect with Gordon a bit more so Gordo decides to introduce him to the science team. Shenanigans ensue and SURPRISE! Evie sends a message to Tommy for a family reunion @ where she lives. The team + Benny + Kell decides to take this meet n’ greet to Evie.

They eventually get to where Evie is and she isn’t anticipating other ppl so she attempts to split Tommy from the rest of the group. However! Arden is wayy too giddy at the opportunity to catch his own brother off guard which ruins Evie’s initial plan.

So now the team is on the run- Arden’s on their tail alongside whoever else who was hired by Evie.

Eventually the group is forced into a divide, with Kell Bubby and Benrey off from the main group.

(Now this is where James importance would be established) turns out Benny n’ Kell where both caught. Arden is free to do whatever with his brother while Kell and Bubby are handed off to James to fuck around with as humans are so easy to experiment on 😚

Gordo, Dr. C, n’ Tommy are elsewhere recovering and eventually meet one of Ben’s siblings (Dune? probably)

The group somehow finds out the other half’s whereabouts and plans to get em’ back.

(This is where things are vague)

They get to James lab??? and get both Ben and Bubby back but are unsure where Kell is.

They are eventually pursued by Arden and some masked robot guy with a sword. Dramatic reveal! It’s Kell (parallel to Gordon’s HEV suit but he’s the one being piloted by the armor) not in control, he lobs off Gordon’s arm and catches Tommy 😬

-

ANNNNDDD THATS ALL I GOT. yeah lol. But that’s what I wanted to do with the CYM story- Kell’s involvement is more as a reluctant villian is something I’ve thought about a lot heehee ^^

But yeah!! Kinda cheesy ik but this was still a huge work in progress and is sorta old (Evie was still Amira. James’ existence was still solid and Arden’s involvement with capturing Tommy was on and off)

[pistachi0art]

Also, Is James/Magenta Be Getting A Redesign Too? Because Evelyn/Amira Got A Redesign, I Want To Draw Her New Design As Well As Him.

Or Is James Strictly For The CYM Siblings AU?

James is probably not getting redesigned. I’m still on the fence if I even wanna keep him as one of Tommy’s siblings (which is breaking the CYM thing but idk it feels sort of excessive.)

If anything I’ll try to fix him up a bit, give him a new outfit or something. I really don’t know 🤷

[pistachi0art]

Mmmm Amira having an umbrella as to G-Man’s suitcase bc she’s the most like him something something. like- she’s the “woman standing in the rain waiting for her bus” and he’s “the businessman already on the bus”

[pistachi0art]

Cyan, Magenta and-

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THE BENREY SIBLINGS AND THIS ARE CONNECTED IN A BIG ASS STORY IM CONCOCTING IN MY HEAD-

Character info dump below:

Amira

-obsessed with upgrading and making everything “better” (modification of organic beings with technology)

-because of her energy color being very cold he has a very energetic and bubbly front to hide how completely unpleasant she is (talks and moves fast to make up for it)

-causes the environment to become very cold and still around her when she’s not moving as much (stalling time powers?)

-represents time slowing like how ice “slows or stops” whatever it covers

-REALLY hates truly positive ppl but hides it (clashing energies; cold v warm energy)

-beautician vibes

 James

-obsessed with creating new and perfect life, but cannot create anything stable (experiments on organic beings for research to create new life; mad doctor sort of thing)

-energy is neither warm or cold, but is relatively darker than his siblings showing the “in-between” of what was, what can be and what will never be.

-creates new life just to destroy it because of imperfections

-represents time repeating or resetting (looping/resetting time abilities?)

-doesn’t show too much of any emotion and is very dull

-surgeon/mad doctor vibes

[pistachi0art]

Do you think Tommy would be perceptive of Eve's distain for him? Or would Eve be good enough at hiding it that he thinks everything is cool between them? I can't imagine just finding out one day that your older sister has had this huge grudge against you your whole life, and you had no idea. Such a cool character design for her btw

Evie being estranged would definitely make him not see her distain- initially. As cracks begin to show and her facade begins to slip he definitely starts to pick it up- but he can’t piece together why she hates him.

She’s pretty good at covering herself though, so yeah- it takes a bit for him to figuring out.

lol yeah it was pretty jarring on his half tho. And thank you! :D

[pistachi0art]

I ADOREEE your hlvrai ocs, you do such a great job at worldbuilding + expanding the cast. While I love Benrey's siblings and Eve dearly, I was curious if you had any other family headcannons for the other members of the science team? I know you've drawn John and Joshua before, and Bubby doesn't exactly have a biological family persay (if you exclude his hundreds of horrific prototype brothers). But outside Dr. Coomers wife I dont see many backstories for him, and I'd love to see if you had any headcannons him specifically or really about any of their families you'd like to share if you're interested, since you always seem to nail making super creative relatives and backstories for all these characters. Only if you want to, though! Once again, I love your stuff!! 💕💕 ^^

TYSM!!! ^^ 💖 I’m glad you’re able to follow my long n’ convoluted oc ramblings ha ha.

As for general info I have yet to dabble into (at least for family stuff regarding the other science team members:

Gordo-

Ppl who’ve been here long enough know about him n’ Kell and Joshie so I’m not gonna go into that too much- (tho I’ve been wanting Kell to be more involved.. I actually have sm unspoken ideas regarding him and the CMY siblings story stuff that I may or may not ever get into but I won’t delve into that here bc otherwise this whole thing is just gonna be about him. Ask if you’re curious tho!!) and as for direct relatives, he’s an only child (John n’ his son are more of like- an alternate reality brother and nephew to Gordo. Kell’s got a younger sister he considers to be his sort-of sister tho)

Bubby-

closest thing he has to family, like you said, are the prototypes and whatever other experiment was made when he was in the tube. Not much I thought of there beyond that.

Dr. Coomer-

Still developing the relationship he had with his ex-wife. I don’t want them really to have a super nasty reason for splitting, bc I see that all the time, but there’s a sort of complexity to why they split.

I want to say both were in the cybernetics department and both had levels of physical alterations with mechanical parts when they first met (and how they bonded) but to where the split happened I may be taking the line “but they took her in the divorce!” too literally. I have concepts! But nothing written down or figured out tho, like I said.

Aaand that’s as much as I have for the others 😭 kinda slow as I’m juggling/developing Ben n’ Tommy’s atm but I’ll get there!!

[pistachi0art]

My HLVRAI AUs organized by substance

-HLVRAI-TWH:

This one has a WHOLE ass ask blog (currently on a hiatus as I try to collect myself and mentally prepare for the following chapters + I still gotta work on the deaths/items/etc.) Started as a drawing then a comic THEN the blog. Discord activity is being held together by The Gallery, I'm so sorry Kris :(( to the Forzen Anon, I swear I’ll get to it eventually.)

-Demon Gordon AU:

Self-indulgent as alllll hell, I get to draw our sad dilf in sexy clothing!!! :DD several drawings, a comic, and a fic to show for it. Pops in from time to time.

-Ghost AU (name pending):

OH MY GOD EVERYONE IS DEAD!! Request turned to 5 day project that turned into an au fun fun fun. I wanna continue this one, it feels like i’d work best as a fic series on AO3 but I’m not in the mood to write a comprehensible story rn.

-Benrey Fam 

Not really an au but more of an expansion of Benrey as a character and his family. Mostly Arden. Yeah. M&M twins also fall here. -Complimentary Colors:

Spontaneous. Someone said this was just Underfell and yeah- pretty much. Kinda like a swap au but not really. Tommy’s my personal fav in this one. Maybe i’ll continue???

-Wall-E AU

Cute Frenrey focused AU that's- just a retelling of Wall-E with a HL/HLVRAI spin to it. It’s cute to be cute. :))

-CMY Siblings

Tommy finds out he’s not an only child and also that he’s the third fragment of what used to be some eldritch universe destroying being??? And his sister sucks woooo. I’ve only been brainstorming what this would be, nothing is concrete, not even Amira & James names and designs. Might poke more at it if I get confident enough.

-Dunkin Donuts

Joke AU where Benrey and Tommy work at a Dunkin-Baskin Robins location with Gordon working at a Krispy Kreme. That’s it.

-Soul Eater AU

Someone can take this one, I don’t imagine revisiting it.

[pistachi0art]

Just wanted to say I absolutely adore your Benrey fam stuff. I love the world you’ve created with it. I know you’re planning on expanding it in future stuff, but do you have any info that can be shared now? If not, that’s fine! Have a great day and thank you for posting your art for us to see!

Tysm! I love posting about them when they come to mind. 💖 as for things I can talk about:

-I took inspiration from a handful of things. Emmet is derived from both the Hlvrai Payday stream’s mention of Benrey’s brother and HLA: But the Gnome is Alive. Chronicles of Benrey plays more like Benrey’s corrupted memory of his childhood- a mash of elements really.

-Most important to Benrey plot-wise? is his brother Arden (if I haven’t made this obvious lmao). The rest of his siblings are doing their own things. (Though I do love his younger sister Fea- she’s an art nerd and I love projecting lol.)

Arden gained a complex the minute Benrey was born.

There is not just one reason to why he hates him but a whole ass list- most of which are just observations he made. (“He’s short, mama’s boy, he cries too much, I hate how he dresses up-“ that sort of thing.) One big reason had to do with Mama Moola’s love for him- but he still hated him even after she died.

Eventually Benrey got pushed to a point and lashed back at his verbally abusive brother. And in short- (without getting too detailed 🤫) ate his eye. He left shortly after the incident but that moment upgraded Arden from being emotionally abusive to physically abusive- in where he wanted to kill him.

Eventually after some other violent outbursts Arden was detained and ironically Benrey was the only one to visit. (Albeit Arden did most of the talking- and none of it was in any sort of way kind.)

I want to make a comic going more into all of this but it’s probably gonna be spliced a lot- as it does mix with my CMY sibling stuff and I’m still building it.

If there’s anything specific you wanna ask about I’d be glad to give you an answer- it’s all bit of a wip atm ^^

[pistachi0art]

Making Tommy some siblings based on CMY color model. :)) (2 specifically, based around magenta and cyan)
