Here's my headcanon for Sebastian's MR-P living situation! I think I've thought up enough details that it'd make a fun post to read.

Image to tempt you to click that read more 🐠

Prerequisite information from some of the writers strawpage Q&A's: It was confirmed they have specialized showers for large MR-P's (maybe experiments in general?), and that there were others in a similar situation to Sebastian (such that they would also need a big shower like him, nothing else was confirmed)

I forgot where I got this info but the MR-P conditions have been likened to nice european prisons, so I base my headcanons off of looking up stuff about swedish and norwegian prisons

~ ~ ~

SO! We can presume that Urbanshade somewhat makes an effort to accommodate their experiment MR-P's.

With that in mind, Sebastian obviously needs a pool big enough for him to exercise in. He's been said to be very agile in water (and land) and you don't get skilled at swimming unless you've had time to practice.

(Honestly, I think it's probably a little bigger than this, I just didn't want to draw it to super accurate scale)

It'd be financially stupid to make a pool SEBASTIAN-BIG for just one guy though, so I think this is a facility-wide shared pool. At least for MR-P's and lower ranked staff like scientists, not sure if higher-ups / managers /bosses would wanna use it.

They use buoys + a retractable false bottom for the "human" part of the pool so people don't dive too deep or swim out in the middle and be harder to rescue. I don't think they would ever let humans swim in there while large experiments are using it, so experiments would need to rent out pool time, the human barriers are easily removable so they can make use of the whole space.

Since our larger experiments are using the pool, they need to shower off the chlorine/whatever chemical, so the specialized showers are nearby! In order to make sure they have easy access to the pool and showers, their living quarters would also be right outside the pool.

~ ~ ~

Finally, we get to Sebastian's cell!

I heavily based it off of this Swedish prison cell. If I ever model it everything will be true-to scale for Sebastian, but this is just a rough approximate. The doors/openings would be wide enough for his fluke to fit through.

I imagine he has some possessions to his name that he got with vouchers! 12 years is a long time, he's collected stuff. A few different outfits as well as his normal uniform, cigarettes, pens and paper for drawing/designing, sewing kit, etc. I think he likes to think up of engineering stuff and schematics at his desk, he can't really make anything but it helps him keep his mind sharp to plan out hypothetical projects.

I was thinking little origami bunnies on his shelf to remind him of zerum would be cute haha

There's a TV mounted to the wall to ensure MR-P's get announcements of their schedules and such, but in their offtime I think they could pop in VHS's or VD's into a little wall receptacle to watch. I think there's probably a limited library for MR-P's where he can rent out books, maybe films/tv with vouchers? I don't think MR-P's would get internet access at all, so in what free time Sebastian has, his entertainment is limited.

I'm not entirely sure what the selection would be like, Urbanshade wouldn't want to have anything that inspires revolution (like real life prisons.. 😓), which cuts out most fun action movies lol. I was thinking it'd be funny if it was largely movies Mr Shade likes.. like old B&W cowboy and samurai movies.

~ ~ ~

Side tangent about the library and what he gets up to in his free time, I think he's learned a few skills through guide books

Looking at his clothes, I think he is most likely modifying his clothing himself. The stitches are large and uneven, which can be inferred he has to use big leather needles and thick/leather thread since his hands are too big to use normal ones comfortably (yes I think this is just a stylistic choice for the model so it looks nice and so the stitches are visible, but it's fun to read into things way too much)

I might finish this comic later but I think he sewed the opening on his poet shirt more closed because he didn't like that his chest was so exposed haha

~ ~ ~

Back to my final headcanon about his room

For his bed, I think he has a regular decent quality prison bed, but super sized and a bit wider than a human bed. (Reinforced as well since he's heavy)

It's big enough for him to sleep with his tail half folded, or to sleep in a big pile, but not stretched all the way out. (I think sleeping completely straight would feel weird for him.. snake instincts Do Not like it)

He had to make his blanket himself. He's had his standard issue blanket since his LR-P days, and it was "big enough" for his fish self that Urbanshade didn't bother getting him a bigger one. So over time he's added to it with other blankets he's managed to get his hands on.

Anyways hope this was an enjoyable read i think way too much about pressure

[urban-shade]

i was thinking abt his (canon) general chronic pain and, i think it first really started with the tail, he gets time to ease into learning to use it to move around but resting his body weight on it Really hurts and he doesn't want to. and its like haha buddy this is your life for the next 10 years

made a little ref for myself of my personal hc of what seb was like in the middle of the experimentation phase

updated my pinned post with a readmore that has a lot of really great videos under it you should check it out

Be careful what you wish for, Mr. Solace :)

Drew this for my AU where Mr. Lopee turns Sebastian human in the blacksite! (Inspired by ichigo_va / Armed_Fish's art/au on twitter)

I DO have a 2nd part written out but we'll see if I get the motivation to draw it bc this was kind of an insane undertaking. It'll be way more angsty :) There's a lot of downsides to him being human in the blacksite..

im gods number one yapper so here's like a lot of my thought process behind this comic. because tumblr gives me a beautiful read more feature and unlimited character count

Mr. Lopee has "reset" him to how he was before the experimentation, BUT at his correct age (32) so that's why he has the scar but my Innovation AU doesn't! He also has his ear piercing holes.. and does have the lip ring one but it'd look more like a mole if i drew it

He got shorts mostly because the comic felt kind of suggestive with a skirt it was kind of a last minute change 😭 (and some of his other stuff has been moved/scaled just because i felt like it should be. And emergency lights/additional lights got turned on so he wasn't in the dark. thanks mr lopee <3)

Sebastian's had a LOT of "turn human" dreams, so he's going from "another dream again... waiit... Holy Shit." Since I think his ears are a detail the dreams have never really had before. His pose is stable enough that it's not until he realizes he doesn't know how to walk that he sliightly leans the wrong way and loses his balance

in part 2 he will be stealing a dead guys shoes and pants but i don't wanna spoil the rest.. I'm also thinking im gonna have him put his ring on a string around his neck, it just fell under his desk or something ^_^
