How did you develops your art style?
Btw I really like how you draw lances expressions (:
Of course the obvious answer is always going to be "well I just practiced and practiced."
But one helpful thing I found when trying to figure out my own style was redrawing screenshots from other material.
Redraws, and things like "draw this in your style" pieces, are very helpful because you 1) get to see how other people draw certain things, and 2) you also get to find out how you would choose to draw those same things.
I redrew a lot of cartoon/anime styles and if you look really closely you could probably find aspects of Naruto and Avatar the Last Airbender in my style.
It all comes down to the advice someone told me really early on "steal from the best and make it your own."
But if I'm being completely honest, I think the most helpful thing about finding my own style was finding what I couldn't do. Not in terms of giving up, or settling for something lesser, but in terms of finding value in my own work and not comparing it to someone else's.
@iybms is one of my absolute favorite artists and I adore her style. But if I tried to recreate it, or if I constantly compared my work to hers I would only end up disheartening myself.
Finding my style really worked for me when I realized what I wanted to convey with my art.
And your last comment is literally the perfect example, because what I want people to get out of my art is the emotions. The expressions. The feelings.
And as long as I am able to convey that, my art doesn't need to be the best, or it doesn't need to be compared to someone else's.
I mean, I'm not perfect, of course I still compare my stuff to other people's from time to time, but you get it.
It's taken me a very long time to figure out that even if something works for one artist, it doesn't mean it will work for me.
The main example can be clearly seen here in my Voltron comics, where in the first two I was trying to draw noses/lines/shading the way someone else did, and it looks really bad.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And here is where I started to break away from that after realizing it wasn't working the way I envisioned it would:
Tumblr media
And here is where I finally settled.
The differences may look subtle, but this is the style I am most comfortable with, and the one I've drawn with the longest:
Tumblr media
Learn from and copy what others do to figure out what works for you, and more importantly, to figure out what doesn't work.
Then make it your own.

Fanart for Night Time: Contemplation and Conversation by @skysophes (redraw)
Tumblr media
I want to get back into fanart for fanfics this year but it's very daunting to make art and tag authors... so I decided to play it safe and show my art improvement by redrawing some old pieces!
Especially cause all of the fics already in my recommended folder are really good and if you didn't check them out the first time, hey, check them out now!
This fic focuses on Cass' emotions after the Great Tree and Lance trying to reach out to her.
It's short and sweet and I still really love it!
One of my 'go to's for when you just need a sweet slightly angsty oneshot to read before bed :D
You can check out my original fanart for this piece here!

It's time.
So, I have decided to formally retire from FireAlpaca and will not be revisiting any of my old works made on that app (just because of personal preference). SO, I've decided to share some of my favorite WIPs that I had hoped to finish once upon a time lol.
I'm gonna be tagging all the characters that show up btw, so sorry if this comes up as you're peacefully scrolling your fandom tags hehe.
Please check the tags for the characters/fandoms and decide if you wanna open this post.
So yeah, have a couple of old sketches from 2-5 years ago :D
[Uncolored blood in one of them jsyk]
This one felt appropriate to put first lol I was really liking the way it was turning out... and then I lost motivation lol. Think this is from 2 years ago-ish.
Tumblr media
Here's another of my OC. I was going to make a super cool battle illustration with super cool effects and super cool lighting and I gave up almost instantly lol. SHE HAS NO WRISTS!!
Tumblr media
This is one I made for Drawfest 2, like, 2 years ago now, I think. I thought it was coming along kinda nice except I couldn't get the perspective to look right so my character ended up looking huge lmao.
Tumblr media
Here's ANOTHER of my OC. This one is really old lol. I've redesigned her now and I don't use this shading style anymore, so I retired this profile picture really early on.
Tumblr media
Ok, last one of this OC. This was going to be one of many sprites that I was making to use in videos and stuff, but I, once again, lost my motivation hehe. Looks REALLY bad tho so idc.
Tumblr media
Now for some fandom junk!
.
.
Pico jumpscare I got really into Pico's school way back when and never saw any fanart for his death screen. So I wanted to try my hand at it. Got through the lineart before I decided I didn't like it and was not skilled enough to salvage it so I gave up. Might redraw this in the future though!
Tumblr media
Haha mind the huge empty space on this one.
This was going to be a picture of Gregory and Freddy from FNaF Security Breach (made this around the time the game came out), but I quickly realized I couldn't draw animatronics and quit lol. You can kinda see the stripe on Gregory's shirt, but my sketching abilities back then were awful so it's a little hard.
Tumblr media
ASJKFHSABFHJBF I ALMOST FORGOT I WAS DRAWING HIMMM!! This bean is a character from To Your Eternity, an anime I randomly found on Netflix once and fell in love with (I quit at the weird scene in the prison tho, remind me to finish it). HE WAS SO CUTE I JUST HAD TO DRAW HIM <3 Also this isn't the ball, this is the boy. I just didn't get to his eyes.
Tumblr media
MULTIFANDOM IDEAAAAA
So me and my sister were talking a few years ago, and I think one of us misspoke and said "Coffee shot" instead of "Coffee shop," so this AU was born.
It's a coffee shop called the Coffee Shot staffed by characters that love guns and have guns and shoot guns and I love them. The shop is frequented by characters from other franchises (in this case Danganronpa), and it's got the best coffee and the best theming you've ever seen >:)
Characters from left to right: Pico (FNF), Kiyotaka Ishimaru (DR1), Mondo Owada (DR1), Lance (EBF5)
Tumblr media
Here's another MultiFandom picture :D
This one was based on Pinterest lol. I have boards for both of these franchises, but they kept wanting to save these two characters to each other's boards lol. SO I wanted to make a style swap with them! Didn't end up finishing it, though, but I do want to come back to it!
Characters: Kiyotaka Ishimaru (Danganronpa), Ranma Saotome (Ranma 1/2)
Tumblr media
Aaaaand then just take some Danganronpa stuff.
This first one is actually the second piece of fanart I ever did for this game, but I quit really quick because I SCREWED UP TAKA'S HAIR AND DIDN'T WANNA REDO IT BECAUSE EVERY TIME I TRIED IT LOOKED FUNKY SO NOW HE'S JUST FUZZY. AND THE BACKGROUND EWWW I FORGOT IT LOOKED LIKE THIS
Tumblr media
And then this one is of the same two characters but based on a fanfic I read once. It was a Beauty and the Beast one. It was really fun to read. I liked it. It's on Wattpad if you're interested. I quit on this picture really quick tho. Made the sketch on Photoshop 2 years ago, transferred the sketch to FireAlpaca, then realized the sketch sucked and didn't bother trying again.
Tumblr media
.
.
.
SO
There's all my sketches. The ones that I'm willing to share, that is.
Let this be a lesson that not all of your pictures are going to go the way you want to. Your sketches are going to be messy, your lineart isn't going to match up, your colors are going to look funky, and your shading is going to want to make you rip out your hair sometimes.
I think what's important is to make sure that all that stuff doesn't discourage you.
If you give up all together, you'll never know what you'd've been able to produce if you hadn't.
If a picture isn't working for you, find out why. Then quit that picture, practice, and come back. You'll be able to compare yourself to your own art instead of other people's, which will give you a clearer sense of how far you've come.
.
SORRY DIDN'T MEAN TO GO ON A RANT THERE
I think I'll shoot to redraw some of these next year. I definitely want to come back to that Pico one, the style swap one, the Coffee Shot, and the Christmas one.
Don't really have time for that now, but that's now on my New Year's Resolution list lol.
If you're reading this, thanks for looking at my old crappy art. It feels nice to share <3

[Image Description: Koga, part of the Elite Four in Gold and Silver (and its remakes Heart Gold and Soul Silver), with his Crobat. Koga is standing in the middle of a room meant to resemble a shadowy forest, with cobblestone pathing around the top half of a green Pokeball-shaped mat. He has his hands in front of his chest crossed over a red and white Pokeball. The Crobat, a large purple bat with two sets of wings, is flying by his side. End ID.]
-----
“Fwahahahaha! I am Koga of the Elite Four. I live in shadows—a ninja! My intricate style will confound and destroy you! Confusion, sleep, poison... Prepare to be the victim of my sinister techniques! Fwahahahaha! Pokémon are not merely about brute force—you shall see soon enough!”
More Johto with a familiar face! Koga's back, babey! And yeah, I'm just gonna use this opportunity to confirm that I will be drawing all the Kanto gym leaders again--I kinda have to, given my love of the drastic redesigns and the fact that there's a new one and also there's one Kanto original that I never drew during the initial Kanto set--so this series is gonna go quite a bit longer than some might've initially expected hehe. Though I will be skipping redraws of Bruno and Lance as Bruno's design isn't different enough for me to justify it and Lance would've not only been in the same situation if I had gone with my original plan to draw his FRLG design over his LGPE design (curse you low quality image reference!!), he'd end up getting drawn with the same Pokemon again anyway due to Johto literally only adding one (1) dragon and giving it to his cousin XD Yeah, I could draw Dragonite again too, but part of the purpose of this series is to also expand my repertoire in drawing various Pokemon so I want to avoid repeats for as long as I can unless they are Pokemon that are inherently significant to the trainer's story and personality beyond just being a fun 'mon on their team.

if you don't mind me asking, what inspired you to write wirip?
-Happy :3
Okay so, it's mid 2019 and I'm a 14 hour flight alone. I downloaded the Umbrella Academy to watch a couple weeks before and immediately, Viktor is my favourite character. So I'm bored as fuck, bring out my sketchbook, and sketch this while half-asleep:
Tumblr media
(yes this is this og sketch that I found by fishing out my old sketchbooks).
Immediately I imagined a scene with Lance as Viktor in the bathtub. At the time, I had another AU (Of Claws and Steel - but at that time oCaS was going to be a multi-chapter fic) where Lance had been trapped in a healing pod while awake. BADDA BING, BADDA BOOM, I connected the dots and was like "hey you can make an AU out of this."
For a while I came up with other scenes in my head (all of them either in ch11 or the last wirip chapter that is yet to be published) but I never did anything with it until after I graduated as was like "hey, i have some free time now. Let's write a long fic!"
It was between wirip and ocas, and ngl ocas was something I didn't want to revisit so soon so boom. I got to planning and wirip was born! A lot of stuff was written on the fly, but most of it was planned out from november 2020 to jan 2021.
Might try to redraw this someday. It's an iconic scene after all lol.

“When we get back... I think I’ll get a new suit made.”  “Ugh I think it looks good on you Pidge,”  he blushed. 
When Pidge suddenly grows through a growth spurt XD and man does Lance start noticing her a lot more...
Thank you @rowaaaan for the request, it was super fun. Sorry I drew Lance last so by that time my hand was cramping really bad so that’s why there’s a quality drop 😫 but I just had such a funny idea in my head that I had to finish it ASAP! 
This is from this clothing post.

A Really Mad Keith From Retrograde
Tumblr media
Extra:
At bedtime.
Lance: Pidge! Your boyfriend is gonna kill Lotor!
Shiro: As much as I don't trust him, his info has helped Voltron take out the Galra supply routes. Please, stop him.
Sam: I agree. He's too young to have blood on his hands.
Krolia: I don't see what's wrong.
Hunk: You're the reason he's like this!
Pidge, annoyed that everyone is coming to her before they go to sleep: Fine. I'll talk some sense into him.
Pidge, finds Keith in the training room: Keith, everyone is freaking out. Don't kill Lotor. Remember what we need him for.
Keith, freezes, nervously says: Of course. Though can I dismember him a bit? Just one arm.
Pidge, smirking: Sure, call me when you're gonna do it. Rover has to video it too. I wanna see and hear that bitch scream.
Keith, tearing up: God, I love you.
Pidge: I love you too, my precious Ominous Black Spirit.
....
redraw a Keith screencap and decided to spice it up a bit.

I realized I had never done a redraw of just Lance before, and man this was hard. It’s a mix of the angle of his face and his sharp profile that had me cussing at the picture, but this is the end result. Totally half-assed the background. So now I’m realizing I’m running out of people I want to draw. I thinking Lotor’s generals next. After that comes harder pictures for me to recreate. 
“Participate in Inktober.” I said. “It’ll be a fun challenge.” I said. “24 DAYS LEFT!!!” I’m crying.

So. Where to start.
On July 10th, 2016 a new series came out: Voltron, Legendary Defender, a series taken from the one produced in the 80s, in which five boys from earth team up to save the universe, together with a princess from an alien planet that ceased to exist 10 thousand years ago.
I grew together with them, travelled with them, faced trials with their help.
Even though they are fictional characters, they've taught me so much: they taught me the importance of communication, how to open my eyes to hidden friendships, how to be more considerate but also more confident in my skills. But most importantly, I learned how to let go, for example things that are out of my control, and focus on what I have now, what I can do and who I am now.
I saw them growing and changing with me, choosing their own, personal path, creating new bonds.
And then I saw two polar opposites gravitating  towards each other: Lance McClain and Keith Kogane grew closer and closer, finding in the other a new sense of security, even though most of the times they threw the other out of one's comfort zone in the process... but thanks to this, they grew up and learned new ways of living. They decided to stick together, and even if the story took a different turn, I've always seen something more to it, something deeper. A bond that nobody could break, nor touch for that matter: it was theirs and only theirs.
They sought each other out every single time something went wrong (or right) and the other was always there, supporting and holding on tight at the same time. They are so special and dear to me.
I saw myself in Keith a lot, under so many aspects it would take an eternity to describe them all... but in short, I learned the most from him, I laughed with him, I cried with him. I got so emotional from pouring my feelings into this work that now I feel drained of all my energy... but happy. So, so happy. And I haven't said anything yet... but I'll stop there, or this will turn into a will.
I really hope, one day, to be able to find my own path, too. So... thank you, Voltron, for coming into my life.
I did this artwork in occasion for the Instagram challenge by @girlwithacrown. Needless to say, today has been a very special day.
The goal was to take one of Klimt's paintings and redraw it with a fanart or OCs. I chose to paint Klance, as you just read, redrawing Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss"
So, a huge "thank you" for this special opportunity ♥️

Director’s Commentary- Fragile Hearts, Pidge asks for the truth and first kisses
Ahhhh I miss this story so much and I love getting to talk about it!!!
When she swallowed again, her tongue was dry. “Hunk?”
He hummed and looked at her. “You alright?” Oh Hunk you oblivious gorgeous man you.
She nodded and thumbed through her book. “Um. It’s just- I read something in here and I wanted to ask you about it,” she managed to spit out.
He chuckled and tilted his head. “We lived through all that. What could you possibly have to ask about?”
“Well, it’s not something I would’ve been aware of,” she said. She opened the book and stared at the words, afraid to look up and lose her nerve. “It says you- or I guess, your character- um….” reading this right now make me want to reread the whole thing ahhhh
“What?” Hunk prodded, confused.
Pidge took a deep breath and laughed nervously.
Just spit it out. Spit it out. Spit. It. Ou- I like doing this thing where the narration may be in third person limited, but it can still have the character’s voice bleed through. In this case the spit it out is very much pidge thinking then cutting herself off because I wanted it to feel abrupt to the reader too.
“It says you had feelings for me at that time.”
She grimaced at her hands, feeling like she was drowning in the silence that ensued. To me, the panic of asking and the grimace stems a lot from the feeling of disbelief that he would like her. She tried to remember to breathe and managed to look up and see Hunk, frozen and shocked where he sat.
“Um…. I’m not sure if it’s just something Lance threw in for romantic purposes, or if it’s real, but…. I guess I kind of wanted to know from you. She was giving him an out to deny it, mostly because she also didn’t want to sound hopeful. If you… uh, liked me like that and when… yeah,” she finished lamely. She chewed on her lower lip and waited.
“Fucking Lance,” he muttered under his breath. HE VIOLATED THE BRO CODE. Hunk had no idea his crush would get into the books, and he’s really not surprised that Lance would have spent time on it because it’s LANCE and he’s just exasperated. “Can I… see?” She handed the book over and sat back, sitting on her hands. Hunk narrowed his eyes and then closed the book, chuckling into his hand. “Um… yeah. Yeah, that… that’s real. It wasn’t just added in.” Cat’s outta the bag and also he doesn’t lie to Pidge.
Pidge felt her face heat up, as she squeaked out a high pitched, “Oh.”
She waited, expecting something more. Something like, but that was back then, or yeah I liked you then but we were kids. Just something more. But the topic was left there, hanging in the air, feeling unfinished. Because it is unfinished!! It’s still there!!!! It’s still going!! But this also just shows how Pidge is always kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Finally she asked, “Why?” He frowned and looked back at her questioningly. They were both perched on the edge of their beds anxious and drawn to each other and the space between them seemed to swallow what they said and didn’t say despite the silence in the room. She swallowed and let out a shaky breath. “I mean, why did you like me? I was… I was- I don’t know.” I never wanted to demean Pidge or have her demean herself. Pidge knew her strengths, she was smart, she was quick, she was stubborn, she was a good fighter. But as any teen might, she has her insecurities. Her mind wasn’t on dating back then, it wasn’t a priority. But looking back, she does wonder what the hell because those insecurities about her body and dating very much exist now that the danger is gone. 
“Smart? Determined? Strong?” Hunk finished for her. She looked at him, fighting the urge to roll her eyes. He looked frustrated, and he kept running a hand through his hair. “Pidge, you’ve got to stop putting yourself down. I don’t know why you do it, but it’s….” He sighed and stood up to kneel in front of her. Body language to show he’s at her beck and call (in a good way), and willing to be open and honest with her. Neither of them are closing themselves off. Her eyes were wide, focused on him, and she knew her cheeks were a bright red. “You’re a hero, Pidge. If people knew the things we did, you’d be every little girl’s role model. Smart, quick-witted, and resilient.”
She tried to steady her breathing, but he was too close and making her nervous. She could feel the anxiety running over her like a heat wave, making her feel like a fly under a magnifying glass in the sun. “You never said anything,” she whispered.
“The last thing I needed was to push away my best friend.”
She crossed her arms and scowled. “I’m not that terrible of a person, Hunk!” she snapped. “You’re my best friend too, I wouldn’t have just… cut you off or something. You could have told me, why would you just assume that I’d want you to go away?” Hunk also very much had his own insecurities. And I think that when it comes to best friends, there’s always that fear of what if it messes everything up? 
He sat back on his heels and sighed. “I was a kid, Pidge! I was…. My crushes before had never gone over well. I didn’t want to risk that happening with you. You had more important things to focus on, we all did.”
She frowned and looked away, towards the floor. “So I find out five years later in a book,” she grumbled.
“Yeah, I’m gonna kill Lance for that.” A tiny bit of more natural banter to sort of ease the new territory they’re in.
She kept glaring at the floor and took a very deep breath before her next question. “So when did you stop? Liking me, I mean. Because of Shay? Or when we came back home?”
No answer. She looked back at him to find his eyes on her. He looked like he was in pain. “Please don’t make me answer that,” he said, the words barely even a whisper. I HAD PLANNED THIS. FOR A WHILE. I was so so so excited for this very line of a pained “don’t ask me to answer that” because just. Ask me no questions, I’ll tell you no lies. Hunk has felt this for so long but he RESPECTS Pidge enough not to let it intercede with their friendship, not to expect anything out of her, and he RESPECTS her enough to never want to lie to her. Even when it can hurt him. 
She looked at him, confused and worried. “Why?” as smart as Pidge is, emotions are not her thing even now. It’s also part of why she banked on schoolwork to distract her instead of dealing with herself. 
His lips twitched into a soft, sad smile, his eyes darting away from her. “Because I don’t want to lie to you. But I also don’t want to lose you because I just got you back.”
Her heartbeat sped up and she could feel her hands shaking, longing to reach for him. “I just told you that you wouldn’t have before. Why would you lose me now?” Hunk furrowed his eyebrows, his shoulders tense, looking everywhere but at her. She reached out, turning his head to her. His eyes locked on hers immediately, but they were wide and afraid. “Hunk? Talk to me.” gentle intimacy.... T.T I love them so much and I just wanna give them every soft moment ever.
He opened his mouth but promptly clamped it shut and shook his head.
Pidge could feel her heart pounding in her entire body. She knew the desperation was plain on her face in the way her eyebrows scrunched together, the way she kept biting her lip, the way her eyes searched frantically for something telling in Hunk’s face.
“Please?” she breathed. All she had to say was please for him to break and idk that’s. I love that. 
His eyes opened and he looked her in the eyes. His shoulders slumped and he leaned into her hand. “Because now these feelings are a lot stronger than they were when I was seventeen.” Pidge gasped and jerked back slightly, staring at him in disbelief. She’d gathered he still liked her but she didn’t expect him to say the feelings were STRONGER, Hunk are you trying to kill her?? “I didn’t stop. I thought I could live without you when we came back to Earth, but…. Everything came crashing back the second I saw you looking at me in the bakery. I. Loved. Writing. This. Confession. I believe hidge-resource did art for it, I can’t recall. Freckled face, tousled hair, and… big, amber eyes,” he said with a smile, pulling back himself as if to give her space. “I’m so sorry, Pidge.” anyone else as upset as me that Hunk feels he has to APOLOGIZE for his feelings? Because. God. He just bared himself and he still expects her to be upset. Because he kept it secret, for putting her in an uncomfortable position and THIS is why I love unknown requited pining. 
She remained silent, shell-shocked. He still liked her. His feelings had grown. And he was… sorry for it?
He looked up, defeat coating his features. Like he was certain he’d made a big mistake.
Her entire body felt like it was shaking as she reached up to cup his face with her hands. His beard was rough beneath her palm but she didn’t mind. She’d been holding back from him for so long. She never had to. He still liked her. He still liked her. He still liked her. I drew this, but I’d love to redraw it. Also the repetition is her trying to get it in her head.
Pidge leaned forward and pressed her lips to his, eyes shut. She felt like she’d opened a dam, and there was nothing she could do to stop the flood of emotion and memories that flowed from her. Endless smiles and jokes, fighting side by side, sleeping next to him, dancing in a dark living room, hungover mornings, laughter and comfort and…. Hunk. someone mentioned in a comment that they really liked how this kiss was described. It’s not the physical aspect of the kiss, but the emotional and personal aspects. The things that culminated to this one moment. 
She pulled away and gasped as his hand caressed her face. “What was- why are you crying?” he stammered.
She rolled her eyes and leaned forward to kiss him again, smiling against his lips. “You should have told me. Instead of having me pine after you like one of those cheesy movies we watched today.”
“Pine?” he repeated, dumbly.
She looked him in the eyes and laughed softly. “Do you think you could stop thinking for a sec and just kiss me back?” Pidge kissed him TWICE. And he couldn’t react because he was so dumbfounded. They’re both so smart but SO FUCKING STUPID. 
He let out a breathy, nervous laugh, but he pulled her in and kissed her. It was a little clumsy and uncertain, neither of them really used to the other this way. But between laughter and relieved, adoring gazes, they managed to figure each other out, their kisses slipping into something familiar and comfortable. I always loved the idea of being comfortable enough with someone that the clumsy awkward parts are easy to get through before reaching something soft and comfortable and familiar to the two people involved. Like... they’re best friends and know everything else, and this is something new, but also something that, like everything else, they’re gonna get familiar with.

Redrew an old comic today... It’s so interesting to see how my style has changed from back when I just copied the show! I’m also low-key proud of the posing in the new one... the first one was so stiff and boring! (And kinda weird lmao)
The first image is the redraw, second is the old one. Image descriptions are under the cut!
[First Image Description: A Voltron: Legendary Defender comic.
First Panel: Keith and Hunk play video games on bean bags. Keith is trying very hard while Hunk is just having fun and sticks his tongue out as he plays. An arrow points at Keith saying “Really sucks” and another points at Hunk saying “Playing like a pro”. Keith says “W-why are these Altean video games so difficult?!” Hunk says “Heh, I don’t know, man!”
Second Panel: Keith looks distraught as Lance passes by in the background with a question mark next to him. Keith says, “I cant believe you beat me!”
Third Panel: Hunk smiles and says, “hah, wanna joust for the title?”
Fourth Panel: Keith smiles and says, “OK! Just let me get my lance.”
Fifth Panel: Keith holds Lance sideways like a lance (the weapon) in a fighting stance. Lance blushes and says, “DUDE!” Elipses appear next to Hunk, who is very confused. He mumbles, “I wasn’t serious...”]

introducing Voltron: The Office AU!
i’ve been working on this for a while now! the office is like my favorite show ever and i just felt inspired one day and decided to make this. i have plans to redraw so many scenes from the show! below the cut is more details about the au. enjoy!
also click the photos for better res!
okay so disclaimer: i have paired each character from voltron with a character from the office. however, that does not necessarily mean that their personalities exactly line up together or that all their scenes line up together. for example, just because lance is paired with jim in this au, it doesn’t mean that i necessarily feel that lance fits every jim scene. or just because matt is ryan and romelle is kelly, doesn’t mean they date. tldr i am taking liberties with how the characters function basically. ANYWAYS here we go!
Lance - Jim: one of the top salesman, office prankster, a goofball that makes a mundane work day a little brighter; also has a huge crush on the cute receptionist; member of the party planning committee Keith - Pam/Dwight: office receptionist; actually has a passion for art but can’t afford to go to art school at the moment, so long-time friend Shiro hooked him up with the receptionist job; gets very irritated by Lance’s pranks; engaged to James Griffin Allura - Phyllis: also one of the top salesman; loves office gossip; member of the party planning committee Hunk - Oscar: accountant and office gossiper; currently dating warehouse worker Shay Balmera; member of the party planning committee Pidge - Angela: youngest person to ever get a job at Voltron Inc.; accountant and resident gremlin; will probably put the IT guy out of a job Shiro - Michael: regional manager; disaster gay who goofs up a lot, but is a very caring and understanding boss; lives a long and happy life and nothing bad happens to him long term :) Coran - Creed: quality assurer and office kook; has done many many strange things throughout his life, but nonetheless is very lovable and fun Matt - Ryan: the temp; Pidge helped him get a job at the office while his finishes night school; starts a fire in the office with a cheesy pita pocket in a toaster oven Romelle - Kelly: customer service; always radiating positive energy wherever she goes except when she has to work right next to Lotor who she despises; also has a crush on Allura Lotor - Toby: human resources; i like irony; nothing much to say except that Lotor is Toby because no one likes toby
And some more character match ups not shown above! Adam - Holly Shay - Daryll James - Roy (the other MFE pilots also work in the warehouse) Nyma - Karen Rolo - Andy Plaxum - Erin Slav - Jan
of course as i continue with this au things are subject to change, but here’s what i have so far! anyways if you’ve read all of this text you’re so strong and i hope i’ve gotten you excited for what’s to come!

tumblr appears to have eaten the emoji but im guessing this is for the oc meme!
uhhh OH i should. totally talk about this dingus, who i love, and ill finish redrawing her comic someday
i keep wondering if i should like, provide art to go with these, but... wait why is she in the bridgeverses world on toyhouse. did i do this??? jorb why did we put her there
OKAY SO. she’s half-human, half-hedgehog, and i keep describing her as “VERY thirteen”. bc she’s like, 13, and also is full on “I HAVE THE POWER OF GOD AND ANIME ON MY SIDE” p much. she thinks shes unstoppable but shes actually just kind of embarrassing and then she like, kicks human!chaos 0 in the face, except that ended up being a Very Bad Idea
i came up with her when i was 13.
i think her backstory was, like... she was made by eggman as a genetic experiment? also despite being “half-hedgehog” she just kinda looks like a human but with anime hair. i gave her a tail later. actually no toyhouse says shes a hedgehog/human hybrid, but the “half” part specifically is probably from her intro RP. i think she was specifically supposed to be like, “what if a human but also had cool chaos powers” (in a setting where chaos powers are, like, mobian exclusive) so she got like, gene spliced or whatever
except like something got screwed up so. she can go super, but she’s permanently in a super form. kind of. she’s not invulnerable but she’s all glowy and practically radiates chaos energy, and can do like, chaos spear n chaos blast n stuff, as well as ~cool original abilities~ like chaos lance which is, uh.. just a beam attack i think. the “got screwed up” part is that like, she’s constantly building up chaos energy but cant really like... how to explain. like uhhh the amount of energy she uses doesnt really make too much of a dent in the amount of energy she’s building up unless she’s going all-out and like, running super fast or shooting laser beams or whatever, and when she starts getting overcharged she ends up in physical pain and basically feels like shes gonna explode. so she kind of always has to be moving and  doing Something to burn off energy. she doesnt... really sleep often.
she CAN like, turn off her super form, but it leaves her super weak and defenseless and i dont think she can like, properly switch it on/off? like i think she can turn it off (probably by discharging all of her energy at once) but turning it back on probably doesnt put her instantly back in super form again, like it probably has a wind-up time or something. iunno thats something i kind of threw in at one point and never figured out the specifics of so this is me lookin back on it like “okay how does that work so that there’s a proper risk-reward tradeoff here”
ANYWAY so enough about her powerset. she’s very very excitable, and loves being a part of things and fighting and doing cool stuff and adventure and exploration and!! everything!! she is EXTREMELY hype all the goddamn time. her likes on toyhouse are “Velociraptors, videogames, being cool“ which i think is hilarious. she’s the type to fling herself face-first into danger, which is a trait my ocs end up having but she was probably one of the first cases of? she thinks shes the best and gets REALLY frustrated if people dismiss her or make fun of her, although she’s also Very aware of her mistakes so she can switch from being “HAHA YES I AM EPIC” to “i am literally the worst and i hate myself and am going to go crawl under a bed” so she’s like... she’s a mood.
her story is very fun, she was like... she accidentally derailed a RP’s plot from a cool mystery investigating why a city was getting worn down and basically eaten by the void to “oh god, this 13 year old accidentally caused human!chaos 0 to snap and go evil from exposure to chaos energy so now he’s gonna collect all the emeralds and go full supervillain so we gotta stop him”. STARPOST ADVENTURE DX HELL YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
oh god this is so long. im sorry. she’s dorky and terrible but i love her
