Sniper Was Initially Not Allowed Into The Pool Near The Base That Soldier And Demo Dug/bombed Repeatedly.

HEY EVERYONE!

So, around two years ago I made this comic for a zine about what kinds of adventures the two Grunks might go on after the end of Gravity Falls. I finally got permission to post it, so here it is!

It’s pretty old, so I’ve learned a lot since then, about comics, layout, color, and pretty much everything! So I don’t love how it looks now, but I felt it would be a shame just to let it sorta rot away on my computer haha. Hope y’all get some enjoyment out of it!

Here’s a link to the zine’s Tumblr page: http://gfpostfinalecomicbook.tumblr.com

TF2 Headcanons: Pyro (s)

So, the Pyro. A mysterious being that adores fire. People always wonder what’s under that mask, and many people (including me) resort to theories and headcanons.

My headcanon? 

there is nothing under the mask.

Simple as that, no? But of course, there’s more to it. I’ll begin the elaboration segment of this post.

Alrighty. Pyro is just an empty flameproof suit that moves around on its own, like those empty suits of armor in fairytales. And magic clearly exists in the TF2 universe, so what’s stopping the Pyro? But the magic has to come from somewhere, and the only source of it we know so far is Merasmus (or maybe australium but that’s TF2 science for you). 

The Pyro was brought to life by Merasmus and possibly Soldier as well. It was originally intended to be a weapon for whatever mafia Merasmus was being threatened by again, but Soldier interfered and ruined the ritual somehow. So now Pyro is this loveable teddy bear of a pyromaniac that waltzes around with the team bringing chaos everywhere. They act like a child, and like a kid being overprotective of their toys, they protect their team with their life.

Also Pyro is just a pinata of sorts. The suit is just filled completely with candy they collect on Halloween and whenever they get exploded the candy just bursts out everywhere too. This is my favorite part of the headcanon because I just imagine Scout getting hurt somehow and he’s making a big fuss and the Pyro just pulls off their glove and tons of candy flies out. Then Pyro picks up a little lollipop who hands it to the now horrified Scout.

This was the RED Pyro, however. What about the BLU Pyro?

BLU Pyro is just a robot. The first robot to ever be made by Mann Co, in fact. While they were cloning the RED team (see previous post titled TF2. Headcanons: Clones), they found that they couldn’t get any DNA from the RED Pyro and nothing showed up in their background check. After learning what the Pyro really was, they decided to just make a robot instead of finding a literal magician to animate another suit.

And the Pyro has such a simple job, right? Spray fire in the enemy’s direction and there you go. But the RED Pyro is alive, in some sense. They learn and adapt, they spycheck everywhere and airblast teammates in need. They help bodyguard their team and protect them. The BLU Pyro needs to be told what to do by a program, which is updated now and then by the BLU Engineer. At some point, the BLU Pyro would have so many changes to its code that it would act almost exactly like the RED Pyro, minus the liveliness and cheer.

The BLU Pyro is just the BLU Engineer’s pet project of sorts. BLU Engie ain’t helping out the team as much as the RED Engie, so he spends all of his spare time changing and adjusting code in the BLU Pyro. BLU Pyro is easily the greatest robot alive. But the amount of code it would take to make a robot act so similar to a human would easily be enough to crash the robots like Grey Mann’s. Even if his robots are powered by money, they haven’t had a brilliant mind like the Engineer work on it for years, especially on the entire army. *insert cool segue here*

Grey Mann got his idea of a robot takeover from the BLU Pyro. He stole the original blueprints for the Pyro and adapted it to suit the entire robotic army he was making. He did not know about the absurd amount of reprogramming and rebuilding the original BLU Pyro went through. Which really sucked for him, since the blueprints he stole were the for original BLU Pyro model, meaning that it was very clunky and it rattled around a lot. And since Grey Mann used the design of the BLU Pyro for his whole robot army, every single one of those robots ended up clunky and rattling. None of them have any of that extra coding from the Engineer either, so the robots in the army don’t spycheck, don’t airblast teammate, and don’t work togther as a team. 

god that was a lot of writing. thanks for reading it! reblogs mean a lot to me, especially those with nice notes attached to them :D. Please give me tips for writing better too, I’ve never had a beta reader for anything except for myself.

really proud of how merasmus turned out! the second one is just how my brain imagines Dior (spy) stabbing unnamed man. if anyone’s confused it’s from an AU of mine i plan on making a trilogy fanfiction from lol. merasmus is just there

*wiggles fingers* mortal you shall die-! NO SOLDIER I DON’T WANT RACCOONS OH GOD NO

soldier: hi merasmus! :D

TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN!!!

I like your Satoru Hosonaga is Miles & Gregory Edgeworth’s ancestor theory, and it's my theory too now. However the cheekbones, Hosonaga is implied to have tuberculosis, and people with TB tends to get thinner and thinner, making their cheekbones more prominent. Search for images of Okita Sōji before (on Wikipedia) getting the illness and after, it's quite terrifying..!

Ooh! I searched it up, but didn't find anything on it on the Okita Sōji article sadly. But that does make a lot of sense! He always seemed really skinny and frail lmao--nice to know that there's a reason behind it. I'll do more research on the illness in the meantime. For me this can go two ways. One could be that the tuberculosis caused the pronounced cheekbones, or the other being that it made it more present (if that makes any sense? i'm super tired rn hahdshabfs)

Should I do more posts about this theory/au? I don't really post much nowadays, but I'll accept asks about it to get more content for this blog hhhh

My therapist just told me my problem is that I need to write more fanfiction.

Help, Epic the musical (specifically Hermes and his stupid pigeon laugh) has me on a chokehold
