part one (vash & knives) // part two (wolfwood & legato) // part three (meryl & milly)
i was really inspired by regularcitrus on insta's jjba mlp au so now i have epic trigun mlp crossover!!! i don't really have much on it yet so i'm working out the little errors
valen angel (nicknamed vash by his guardian) and divinai are both alicorns that were created with the use of magic. similar to how twilight hatched spike, the twins were created by studying other alicorn genetics/dna before they were really "born".
the two grew up in a lab because nobody was sure just how long they'd live for. it was better to keep a close eye on them. vash's magic didn't seem to work as beautifully as divinai's, though he was constantly reassured that he had no reason to fear for it. they were both happy in childhood until they discovered their sister's body, and the failed attempt at keeping her alive. seeing how horribly their sister had been treated, the twins were shocked and disgusted.
vash was distraught and hurt because he couldn't believe that this is what was caused by those who he was supposed to trust. divinai felt just as much hurt and shock, but his feelings burned brighter and in a different way. he wanted to stop this from happening again, to prevent the others from desecrating their beauty like what had been done to their sibling before them.
after careful planning, divinai managed to destroy the lab and its contents, with only him, vash, and other artificial alicorn samples surviving. he wanted to create a world where he and vash could live without fear of being used and destroyed like the countless others.
naturally, this created a rift between the brothers. though they were all each other had, valen angel couldn't help but be shocked with the course divinai went. eventually, the two got into a fight that placed a large bounty over valen's head. now on the run, vash searches for someplace safe until he's forced to meet with divinai, now millions knives, once again.
Okay so Legato is an "alicorn" (but he's really just a unicorn who did some Funky Evil Magic™ or something like that so now he has wings. I like like to imagine that his wings are semitransparent and sparkly 🦭🦭))
I think I might post Milly next (??) If not then it'll be Wolfwood 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Also I'm gonna be honest with y'all I'm low-key struggling with this AU soley cuz of the fact that horses can't hold guns. Do I,, just give them gun harnesses ?? ?
I drew these with instruction from my good pal @gerrbarrkmania17 / @quinnlynnholdsthepen who is an Mlp expert.
Vash is an alien/alicorn and Wolfwood is a unicorn! Wolfwood’s cutie mark was put there during his experimentation, and probably changes to his *actual* cute mark after meeting Vash.
*MLPEES UR TRIGUN* ive seen a few other ppl on twt especially talk about this but the amount of hyperfixation brainrot that has to collide in my brain to create these aus. Wowza!! its like. zooweemama levels of brainrot.
I think if we're talking PLANTS = Alicorns, then maybe we can also add in the whole thing about twi's cutemark having sparks for each of the important ppl in her life, and apply that to their marks. thank you goodbye
seeing so much trigun mlp art has me thinking abt trigun pokemon AU and like... consider the fun of Type: Null Vash and Nai. I know for sure that at some point that Vash would def evolve with the love of humanity, but maybe Nai evolves from the love of Vash or he just. rips the cage off his head at some point lol
part one (vash & knives) // part two (wolfwood & legato // part three (meryl & milly)
aaand the insurance mares!!! i plan to do more of em still like zazie, livio, elendira, etc. but i think they're really cute and i like them
i don't have much about these two yet but. i'm getting there.
snapshot and tender heart are a package deal. they're both tracking down vash, and when they do, they stick at his side a LOT. they wanna help make sure vash's side of the story gets out, and they try to get him a chance to explain his side. he's often misconstrued, so snapshot is often trying to defend his honor. even if she does think he's incredibly ridiculous.
tender heart is just happy to be along!!! she cares a lot about everyone, particularly snapshot, vash, and tattered cross. she's quick to be at their defense despite coming across as aloof a lot of the time.
He's a unicorn (but he's actually a Draconequus who takes the form of a unicorn to blend in better))
This AU is honestly just a mashup of the lore/designs of all the different Triguns (excluding BLR)) so yeaaaahh
Nai is a Draconequus too but I didn't draw him yet because I didn't feel like it 🙃 I don't think Nai would take on a pony form because he hates everyone and wants to be true to his Plant/Draconequus self
you know i made my mlp trigun au while high as balls but actually i stand by this. i think in the mlp au tesla lives.and they all live happy ever after together forever
