And they're all here!!!!! Hurray!

I think Cheesy's the first toddler I've ever drawn in my life lol.

Aand here's the link to the end game summary of The Great Space Opera. Finally!

[teamstormbow]

I commented because I'm stupid but I'll just repost my thingy here aha

YOU GOTTA TELL ME ABOUT PACIFIC RIM RAHHHHH (idc if it's out of my usual fandoms I love PR)

And I guess I wouldn't mind some secret Space Opera behind the scenes 👉👈 :]

No worries! Drift Compatible is more about Transformers: Prime than PR, as in all the characters are from TFP. However, all the robots characters are now jaegers! The 'good' robots (the Autobots lol) can synchronize with a human pilot in the Drift, but only if the two of them are drift compatible (title drop lol). So they're very picky about choosing who can pilot them, kind of like how in Harry Potter 'the wand chooses the wizard'. This is bad, because the 'evil' robots (the Decepticons) are attacking Earth, and the world government still hasn't found pilots for many of the jaegers. Then three random kids stumble upon the super secret military base--the war is kept under wraps to prevent mass panic--and they just happen to be drift compatible with the very robots that need them. Cue shenanighans, hair pulling, and a good dollop of angst.

I actually have like four different documents fills with bits that never made it into TGSO, or that were changed to fit the story better! In the very beginning, the story was going to have the POV alternating between Ze and Chilled, before I realized that it would be better from a narrative standpoint to only have one (for the big reveal at the end). Originally the story would also feature more of Chilled's past, with his... familiar troubles, and also Tiff, who went by her Twitter handle 'Sparkly Chaos' and was Chilled's Actual niece. But I felt like that strayed too far from the rest of the story, so I cut it. Here's her introduction, though:

The next twist in their winding road of a relationship comes one day when Ze returns home to find a stranger in his living room.

He stares. She stares back, frozen like a deer in the headlights, her fingers still sunk in Hashbrown's fur where she was scratching him behind the ear; the useless dog is wiggling his butt and panting happily. The girl has dark eyes framed by thick-rimmed glasses, and a sheet of darker windswept hair falling down to her thighs. Her slight build makes those familiar features all the stranger. "…Chilled?" Ze ventures, on the off-chance the man turned himself female for shits and giggles. The girl stands abruptly. "You know him?" In lieu of answering, Ze glances behind her at the smashed window and the ceramic shards littering the parquet. There went the flower vase. The window frame swings back and forth on its hinges in the breeze. Its catch is scratched to all hell: looks like it took her a few tries to get in. Still, not bad for a high-schooler.

"…Who are you?" he asks. "Sparkly Chaos," the girl says, twisting the hem of her shirt. "I, uh, I'm looking for my--" she hesitates. "Uncle. I'm looking for my uncle."

I just remembered I can post this now! Spoilers for TGSO Side B under the cut:

As in the fic, click on the GIF to turn off the lights! And, since the GIF-making process ate away at the picture quality (you can’t even tell that the lights-off button is on top of a light lol), here is a still:

SIDE B IS UP! I FINISHED IT IN TIME FOR PR1 APPRECIATION MONTH!!! It’s actually August where I live. But it’s still July somewhere, so it counts right?

I’m not tagging it as pr1 appreciation month anyway, since I started it way before the event, but it feels symbolic. Hope you enjoy! This story killed me.

[teamstormbow]

hello! i have a quick question, sorry if it’s been answered or elaborated on already and i just missed it

do all of the roles have the little entity guys or is it just the red roles?

thanks! hope you’re well <3

Hello! All roles have 'little entity guys', as you put it (very cute, I like), a sort of semi-independent consciousness as it were, but since the story's from Ze's POV, we only get to see Warlock (and its reactions to the other roles). Of course, I struggle to imagine what, say, Swooper might look like (or Shifter!), and the roles manifest themselves through base feelings and sensations, so they don't acually appear as those little dudes I drew for Witch and Warlock: Ze doesn't see the little guy hovering over his shoulder or anything, but Warlock does talk to him from time to time. Think of it as a little kreacher residing in his brain. Thank you! You as well :)

So, *checks watch* one year later, I have finished Side A of my fanfic. If you like ZeRoyalChaos or are in general a fan of the Derp Crew/Private Recording One, shenaniganery, mystery and action with some genuine heart to back it up, check it out! In a world that’s a mash of Among Us, Town of Salem, Shellshock Live and the Private Recording One continuity, the fate of the Earth is in the hands of a gang of rebels with superpowers! What could possibly go wrong? Also, it’s very gay. That’s probably the most impostant part of this. The aliens are secondary, really. (Yes, I reuploaded the fic because of a massive scheduling mistake. It’s all good now!)

Since I’m working on many projects in many different fandoms, I’ve added some tags to make navigating my page easier. Beware of spoilers! stormbow: my main project, an original work in webcomic format (which can be found in its entirety here on ComicFury.) The tag doesn’t only include pages, but also character refs, sketches, tidbits etc. In progress! drift compatible au: a Transformers Prime/Pacific Rim crossover fic (on AO3) where the Autobots (known in-universe as the B-Units) synchronize with human pilots to fight against the Decepticons (the A-Units). The tag includes most, if not all of the illustrations in the fic. In progress! the great space opera/tgso au: a Derp Crew/Private Recording 1 fic set in a universe that’s a cross between modded Among Us and Shellshock Live (+ a few more), where some humans gain roles and use their new superpowers to fight an invading alien force. Oh, and it’s ZeRoyalChaos. Again, this tag includes the illustrations for the fic. Complete!
