Cogs Inc.'s very own departmental SSIA team! Because if your staff routinely gets obliterated by toons you might need some doctors on hand! Who gave these fuckers a medical license? Who knows!
(Golden Hello is from @xxnu11-sku11xx )
Sometimes morale in the sellbot department can get pretty low. The stress of sales and potentially having toons smash your face in does not make a good work environment.That's where Golden Hello the therapist comes in! This mellow fellow is an easy cog to talk to and get along with! In fact, he's never met someone he doesn't fully get along with(save for one, but let's not talk about him). He's had a few questions about his last name, to which he always replies "I'm not here to talk about me or my life, I'm here to listen to yours. Is there anything about yours you'd like me to know about?"
Ms. Peri Low, also known as the Operator, has been there, seen that, and is all around a jaded sort. She seems... content with her current position but will begin bitching the second she gets a smoke break. At least she gets to work on trains as well as her coworkers, she fucking LOVES trains. She doesn't like working on cogs who've been hit by trains though, especially if its her boss.
Mr Parris Hale, or the Office Peacock, is equal parts show off and gentleman. They're the nicest of the doctors and pride themself on it. He makes sure all his patientsare comfortablein his presence while working on them, but his toon policy is confusing. While he will deal with any toon who enters his office, he'll also turn a blind eye and play along with their little game while they run errands for him for some reason.
Mx Hex Karousell, or the Manufactory, is the maddest of all the doctors there. They find sameness boring and want to spice things up a little! Why must a micromanager be so small, what if a big cheese was any other food, could a cog still function with removable skin? The CEO has them constantly busy with modification requests for underperforming employees, so there's never a dull moment for them!
Mr Sydney Low, known as the Administrator, is rather anxious for her position, and isn't even located at her department's HQ - she's got her office in the surveillance tower... at least on the surface. He's seems terrified of letting others see that special personal project he's working on at Boardbot HQ. Some believe it's more jacked up than Hex's experiments, others think it's a way to level the playing field between toon's invincibility and cog's easily destroyed nature. Given who Sydney is, it's probably both.

Redacted - Non-Listener OCs
Annnd here are some non-listener characters! Most of which are siblings to the listeners, others just random ones that popped up through a tumultuous series of headcanons. A couple of these don’t have picrews and have actual drawings I made of them that are decent.
Lilia - Baaabe’s little step-sister
- The Sass in child form, Lilia has far too much confidence, and her youth is the only thing keeping her from being the heartbreaker that picks fights at the bar. She loves being with her brother and his boyfriend, and loves to sleep with shifted, fluffy Asher. Even more than that though, she loves teasing her brother by calling him a “Monsterfucker”.
She has a traumatic memory of being attacked by dogs a few years prior, but being near Ash and his therapeutic efforts has helped her work through it. Emmanuel is worried that Lilia’s brashness comes from trying to bottle up her feelings and cope with her chaotic home situation, but he’s not sure what to do about it other than try to be there for her when she needs him.
This kinda came up during the Inversion fic, but she has a tiny crush on Angie.
Aarush Prasad, “Angel” - Sweetheart’s younger brother
- Chrys’s younger brother. They don’t spend too much time together, but talk often. He works as a stripper under the stage name “Angel”. I don’t have a whole lot on him other than the fact that he exists, since he doesn’t tend to show up much. I also admittedly have a shameless “crossover” OC of mine that he dates for a short time, but that character is from a totally different story.
And yes, I have absolutely thought of how funny it would be if this were David’s “Angel”. I don’t remember how his stage name came about though.
Vivianne “Ava” - Blake’s younger sister
- A powerful dreamwalker on Chrys’s team. Also serves as a flippant, yet slightly sadistic, interrogator. She hasn’t been in contact with Blake for several years, and they weren’t generally too close beforehand anyways. However, as her team delves further into their investigation of CloseKnit, she's beginning to wonder if Blake might be involved. She and her brother are about equal in power.
While I like the “Blake and Elliot are brothers” theory, this character came up through a very strange series of headcanons and I just decided to roll with it, let me live okay-
There is technically a third character that Ava and Chrys are close friends with on their team, but I haven’t really thought on him much yet because I...didn’t really expect myself to commit to making Ava a “character” at all, lmao.
This picrew doesn’t actually come with these colours btw! I took some creative liberties after putting her design together, recoloring some things and made a tiny edit to the hair. My image of Blake actually comes from a specific user on here, so the colours being similar is no coincidence///
Kieran - Chrys and Ava’s partner
This is obviously a future update, but I found a picrew that could do member 3 justice, and I found a name for him! Though I don’t know if there’s ever going to be powers of light/darkness, Kieran’s ability is to manipulate shadows. So he’s a...Shadowwalker? Darkness Elemental? (Since we’re staying away from -mancer terms. Also like the term “Voidwalker”, thanks google.)
Though Kieran isn’t as powerful as his companions, his strength comes from his knowledge of his own abilities. Both parents possessed the same, and have been teaching him how to hone his for as long as he can remember. Thus, he can be a pretty formidable opponent to those who dare cross him.
Despite that, he’s actually a big sweetheart, and is arguably the gentlest of the trio. He’s often the one to remind Chrys and Ava to take care of themselves when they dive into their work too much (or to tell Ava to not be too brutal to the suspects they pull in).
Unlike Chrys and Ava, he doesn’t really have much of a side-plot for himself, and just serves as “the third of the trio”. However, I do kinda want him to meet Lasko for some reason.
Kalila Solaire - 2nd Progeny of William Solaire
- The 2nd princess of the Solaire clan. She and Will met after he approached her in a train station, noticing she was nervous about something and striking up a conversation to calm her down. He decided to turn her after she nearly died in a terrible train accident the same day. After her turning, she’s generally known as the clan cinnamon roll, but seems to have a slightly unhinged side to her.
She works directly under Will, assisting him with many of his daily tasks. I still haven’t decided on her “power”, but I’ve figured that she may have been a Freelancer before turning, hence why she can use different kinds of magic and no I am denying that she’s a mary sue and that I’m bad at writing, lmao.
As of the events of Inversion - Another Story, she has yet to awaken from her coma. I actually have numerous branching storylines with the vamps, but the IAS and Yours in Eternity, My Dearest branch is the one I’m focusing on rn. Maybe one day I’ll write other ones I toy around with. (I have a huge bias for vampires if you haven’t noticed yet aha-)
Ryder
[No image]
- Frederick’s boyfriend. They reunited after Fred’s turning, when Fred learned that Ryder was also living in the world of magic. He was confused as to why Briar hated him so much, but they have since worked out their “differences” and the three of them get along quite well now.
He was actually only supposed to be a five-second mention in A Very Merry Rebirthday, but when I wrote IAS, I kinda wanted to connect the fics together, which meant that Ryder would probably be involved. I only have a vague idea of what he looks like, but I enjoyed writing him. His little portion with Xavier in IAS was both unexpected and one of my favourite parts. There were a lot of scenes I wish I could have expanded on or outright added without sacrificing the pacing of the fic, and more time with Xavier and Ryder is definitely something I wish I could have written more.
Maisie Collins - Sam’s niece
- The last time Sam saw her was when she was a baby, but now she’s an energetic young woman. She’s somewhat of an AU character because I’m a dip and I forgot how long Sam has been turned for, but I’ve already shattered canon with a 10-foot hammer, so I’ve been keeping her around.
I don’t have much to say about her (yet) outside of just being a young girl from the countryside. She was kidnapped and tortured by Quinn to taunt Sam and lure Willow into a trap. I have more plans to expand on this little Quinn-venture that’s happening in the background, and actually ties into another fic I really like that someone else made, but I’m not quite there yet...
: ^ )
This was another picrew I made specifically for this post, as I actually made her in another dressup game originally. I tried my best to capture the absolute chaos that was in the og image, and this is the closest picrew I could find in a very half-assed search that could do her hair properly.
Chelsie Morris, “Chels” by some - Kody’s twin sister
- A K-pop lover that is far too sweet to her brother, whom she emphasizes to that she’s the older twin just to annoy him. She’s dealing with the aftermath of an abusive relationship, but still has her life together more than Kody does. She’s also kind of a party girl and loves to go out and have fun when she has time. I’m not sure if I capture it, but she gives off Sorority Girl vibes despite never going to college.
She offered Kody to stay at her place after the Incident™, and is trying to keep him in therapy. She’s fighting her own demons, but is trying her best to be there for her brother and sway him to follow a better path in life.
The Kody’s Redemption Arc series is still ongoing, I just haven’t gotten around to finishing the next few parts. Even though it’s a bit easier now, it’s still hard for me to write Kody and I just haven’t wanted that in my life for a while, lol.
Alrescha
- A sort of AU character where Avior and Stella get absorbed by the Meridian, and this demon is born from their magic. He has vague, hazy dreams where he can hear Avior and Stella talking, but can’t see them or hear their names. He doesn’t know anything about them, but wants to figure out why he’s having the dreams and if he can save the people who seem to have been in danger. He’s friends with Gavin, who’s been aiding his endeavors to find them.
I took some creative liberties with this picrew too, since I already had a specific idea of him in mind from the fic he came from.
I actually don’t really headcanon this character much, since that means Avior and Stella are gone forever, lol. Recently though, I’ve been wondering if maybe this could follow a distant time in an IAS “Cora dies, Huxley lives” route, which is why Gavin seems to be on his own in The Cord. The actual reason he doesn’t mention Cora is because I wasn’t sure how long it would take for a demon to be born after they get absorbed (assuming that that’s even possible...), but if it’s fairly quickly, then hey! Story continuation! Whoo ✨
Giovanni - The Solaire Clan’s librarian
A calm and patient man, he was mentioned in YiEMD a few times. He was stated to have had his desire to tend to their library collection reignited after Kalila began to visit so frequently.
He’s a fairly old vampire, along with his sister, Amalia, who were turned around the same time by someone outside Will’s social circle. Amalia had met a man she fell in love with but didn’t realize that he lured her and her brother into a trap until it was too late. They were both tortured until another vamp saved and turned them, but ultimately wasn’t a good person either, and betrayed them as well. Giovanni killed their maker and vowed to protect his sister from then on out.
When Will found the two, Amalia could barely fend for herself, and her brother was near-feral. However, he managed to convince them to stay with him for a while, and eventually came to the deal to tend to the clan library. It took some time for Giovanni to adjust to the other people that slowly joined the clan, but he eventually became comfortable around them, and loves curating the library for each new face that shows up in their territory.
Amalia - Giovanni’s younger sister, Bright Eye’s Lover
See backstory above.
Amalia is a sweet and gentle young woman, now capable of combat thanks to Will’s teachings. However, unlike her brother who wishes to stay in one safe place, Amalia’s wanderlust never subsided even after everything that happened to them. Once her brother was comfortable enough with it, she began leaving on long trips around the world, bringing back new books for the library if she finds some.
Soon after returning from her latest trip, it was mentioned in YiEMD that she's in a secret romantic relationship with Briar. As of now, Giovanni has no idea that the two have been sneaking out together, since Amalia doesn’t know how he’ll handle the news. Will pulled Amalia aside and spoke with her about it, and promised to keep the secret until she felt her brother was ready to hear it, but did still inform her that he needs to know eventually.
Hestia - Cult leader of The Children of Echo
A somewhat AU meta character, Hestia has been haunted by the voice of our favourite 4th-wall-breaking menace, Echo. She doesn’t know who he’s addressing, but assumes he must be some sort of god-like entity and worships him believing he helps reign over their world. She also believes that her hearing his voice means she’s a “chosen” one, and she must carry out duties in attempt to appease him.
In the fic The Children of Echo, the reader is another such character that can hear Echo’s voice, and goes to meet Hestia to see what her weird cult is all about. She acts mysterious and confident, but is actually rather lonely and struggles with the conflict of whether Echo’s voice is real or something her brain makes up. Meeting the reader gets her confidence back up majorly, with the confirmation that everything that’s led up to that meeting hasn’t been for naught.
I don’t know if I’ll keep this character around in my personal Redacted Fanverse or not. I thought about maybe making her a background character here and there, and maybe she hands out flyers to spread her “message” or whatever at some point. idk, but she’s adorable and I’m glad she got to debut in her own little fic ✨
Lucas - Darlin’s babysitter
Another AU character, this time from the “vamps can have kids and Willow had Quinn’s” one in particular. Lucas is really sweet and soft-spoken, and while I’m not sure if I portrayed it well, he's also autistic. His older sister, which is a part of Quinn’s gang, thought it’d be safer for him to stay with any other group of people, so she left him with the Shaw Pack one day when they were in town. they don’t talk much given the nature of his sister’s association with Quinn, but she cares a lot about him, and thinks their distance is what’s best for them both.
In Branch, Like a Tree, Willow had contacted him to babysit for her, having known him prior through his sister and knowing he could keep her secret. However, with no one else to turn to, she continued to call him over for help. He doesn’t mind though, and enjoys seeing Willow, which is the last remnant he has of his sister, and taking care of her cute little baby.
Kind of random, but I feel like his personal hobbies include baking, and interests include osteology.
Lyra - Lucas’s Older Sister
I do actually have a picrew for the sis too! Which was kind of an accident...but still. Lucas’s sister is pretty brash and aggressive, but has a soft spot for her brother in particular. She and Willow kind of had a thing going before Willow started dating Quinn. I don’t have a name for her yet because idk if she’ll ever really exist outside of an idea and an accidental picrew, but if she’s ever brought up again, here she be.
[UPDATE] ...She has a name now, lmfao. Didn’t think she’d get more appearances, but here we are.
Dana - A ghost from Vincent’s past

OTP
(Pavitr Prabhakar x You)
Synopsis: You like Mumbattan more than New York, so you chill there often. And sometimes help your best friend out as Spider-Woman. But the people of Mumbattan think there's something more to the relationship of the two heroes.
•
•
•
"What does OTP mean?" Pavitr breaks the comfortable silence that had set in as we sat atop the tallest building in Mumbattan, staring down at the -very- busy streets below.
"Uhm..Only Thing Purple?" I guess, scooting over as Pav moves to sit next to me. "No, it means 'One True Pairing', actually." He states, showing me his phone screen and scrolling on Tik Tok.
The video consisted of a fight Pav and I had the other day with an anomaly. Specifically the part where I not so heroically got electrocuted because I stepped in water.
The music filled as Pav landed beside me, reaching out and putting a hand on shoulder. "You oka-" He got cut off as he was shocked as well.
"Okay why would someone edit that?" I ask as I read the caption.
Two dumbasses...literally made for eachother!!
"I know right? I can still feel the lightning in my veins." Pav shivers, pulling his phone away from me. "And there are tons of edits of us saying we're OTP." He concludes.
A second passes in awkward, notedly not comfortable, silence before a loud explosion came from the streets below.
Ah, back to work.

"And Look at That! Our very own heroes have swung by for a quick hello!" The reporter woman smiled at us as I wiped the dirt off my clothed leg.
I smiled back, instantly stopping once I realized she can't see through my mask. "Are you- oh wow, is this live?" Pav asks, waving at the camera.
"Stop you're so embarrassing." I judged his shoulder, to which he threw an arm over my neck and ruffled my hair. "You know you love me." He laughs.
"Oh, wow! That brings me to my only question...the public wanna know! Are you two an item?"
Not this again.
Before I can open my mouth to deny, Pav laughs.
"No, but...might as well do this now. Y- I mean, Spider-Woman. I love everything about you. The way you part your hair, the way you laugh, all the way to your face when you eat really tasty food. And as the months have passed, I realized that I love you. So, will you go out with me?"
I looked between him and the camera, then back at him.
"Nah, I'll pass." I say simply. The lenses on his mask widen.
"I'm kidding! I'm joking! Yes, I'll go out with you Paaaaa...l. Pal." I caught myself. "Oh, my god. Yes!" He tackles me into a hug.
"This is great and all...but can one of you swing this girl to the hospital? The ambulance is backed up..." A paramedic taps me on the shoulder.
I immediately throw myself off Pav. "Yes- of course I'm so sorry come on let's go girl." I grab the citizen, being careful not to touch her...ouch, really nasty arm and swing away.
It takes a lot of focus to swing through Mumbattan with a passenger, but I've done it a billion times. However, it's a little more difficult this time.
Since my heart won't stop beating so fast.

I sat in a chair next to one of the crash victim's hospital bed. The teenage boy hadn't woken up yet, and as much as I'd like to be with Pav right now, my duty as Spider-Woman is to make sure people are safe- even if they're not from my universe.
The boy suddenly stirred in his bed, which caused me to put down my phone. "Hey, you're awake. You got into a car crash. How are you feeling?" I ask the boy, who's hospital bracelet says Aarush. Cute name.
"Ugh...like shit. Who are you?" Oh damn I forgot I took my costume off. "Uh...my names Carly, I'm a med student. It's a whole program- don't even worry about it." I shake my head with a laugh.
"Oh, okay. Hey, look it's Spider-Man." He looks at the TV which had been playing the news. I looked up just in time to catch Pav(Spider-Man) catch my hand with a web after I fell off the bridge trying to keep a car up.
I should probably work out more.
I watch with a warm face as the entire scene from earlier plays out again, Pav wrapping me in a hug and me swinging away with a girl in my arms.
"Damn, Spider-Man and Spider-Woman are totally OTP."
