WIP Wednesday: Wars Are Won: Sacrifice of Happiness
This has started off as a year to get words onto long-lingering planned projects! I have no idea when publishing will be because I don't want to make promises I cannot keep. But look WORDS!
These words are in Wars Are Won By Those Who Dare: Sacrifice of Happiness. Choice of POV will probably eyebrow raising but it is what it is.
Earth year 1996, September 21, 1530 local time
Greasepit has been put in charge of Operation Show Me Alchemy and I have already put in a request for a new nuclear transmutation ray gun from Plutarkian High Command. Estimates I have calculated show that we can fulfill Plutark’s order before the nefarious mice interrupt things so anything past that point is ancillary. But they will interrupt things and the nuclear transmutation ray gun will get destroyed, so pre-submission of that request.
Those preparations in hand, I called up a local real estate agent who was very good at forcing residents to sell for under market value. They found me a closed medical clinic on the opposite side of the city. Already a secured building, prepared with the power loads my experiments will need, and completely isolated from all of Limburger’s properties.
Now I need to source muscle to procure the test subjects.

Doing inktober with a friend this year. Didn't know what else to do, so I decided to make it a Biker Mice from Mars theme. Here's day one, dream. Looks like Throttle is having a good one for once.
Day two. Modo hanging out with some spiders.
Day three. Vinnie contemplating the paths his life could take.
Day four. Throttle dodging a punch from one of Limburger's goons.
Day five. Charley shows the guys a map of the city, probably not long after they arrive in town.
Day six. The golden boy himself. As in fur colour. I've always seen it as a sort of golden brown anyway.
Day seven. Charley fixes a drip.
Day eight. What is Karbunkle doing with that toad? Do we want to know?
Day nine. Finch used bounce! It was super effective!
Day ten. Limburger prints himself a fortune.
Day eleven. Forgiìivve my wandering eye! I cannot explain why it's right over there!
Day twelve. Things are just a little too spicy for Modo.
Day thirteen. *Altered Beast voice* Rise from your grave!
Day fourteen. Throttle hanging out in Hamlet's castle.
Day fifteen. Tigerlily with her favourite dagger.
Day sixteen. The advice that angel is giving Modo may be a little suspect.
Day seventeen. Of course Vinnie has a little demon on his shoulder giving him bad advice.
Day eighteen. A motorcycle seat is also known as a saddle.
Day nineteen. I'd call Greasepit's piggy bank plump, and now it's also full of cash. Thanks to me. Because The Pits always pissed me off. XD
I don't have today's done yet, but I'll try to get it done before the end of the day. For now, enjoy!

I've thought about this a lot but haven't posted any artwork for it.
I feel Karbunkle from Biker Mice from Mars deserves a good redesign. There are many reasons for it, so I'll give a few here;
1. While Karbunkle's design is perfectly fine as a stock mad scientist, his actual character is not a stock mad scientist. He does what he does less for science and more because it gives him a paycheck. If someone were to offer him a better deal, he'd leave Limburger in a heartbeat. In fact, in every three-parter episode, he DOES.
2. Related to the above, Karbunkle is not some weirdo hired from the gutter. He has a long history of being the head scientist for successful Plutarkian invasions. He used to have a lot of clout and still is so skilled that no one on Mars or Earth can replicate his creations. Even though he now grumbles under Limburger's failed invasion, he is still offered jobs from other factions.
3. Karbunkle being vaguely human would be fine if it was ever actually used. But aside from one joke in the 2006 show, it just isn't relevant to his character at all.
So my redesign focuses on these three factors. First off, he is now visibly non-human. His core shapes stay the same, but he has a dorsal mane, fluffy ears, and fangs.
Second, though not visible here, he dresses sharply and holds himself high. Karbunkle is someone with a high position and despite falling on hard times he still keeps his pride. He will still suck up to Limburger, of course.
Also not seen here either, but he has a mechanical tail to use as an additional limb. Since Karbunkle's best work are his mechanical creations, I feel he should make use of them as well. Whether he originally had a tail or not, no one knows.
His VA should still be Susan Silo and he will still wear heels. I don't want to overhaul him entirely, just make him feel more cohesive.

Karbunkle: "I am deeply awed your cheesyness, you are truly mouldy to the core."
Limburger: "It's a gift, something I was hatched with."

The fact that it was seeing Charley and hearing her call out to him that Vinnie was able to break through the mental fog and overcome Dr. Karbunkle’s mind control…..❤️❤️❤️

Funkle and his twin sister are swell pals and do their best to ignore the fact that Lola Karbunkle steals more than just ashtrays and lawn gnomes: as an aspiring writer she steals entire ideas.
Cosmo made an honest man of a handsome astronaut, with who they have two beautiful, perfectly well-adjusted kids who have no issues anyone needs to address.
Patty really wishes her Dad, Chad, would stop starting fires every time he tries to cook. It’s really damaging his prospects as a caterer.

WIP Wednesday
Hannah decides on a course of action once she, Chuck, Milly, and Meryl were sent to the Command Room for safety.
Chuck had heard what Doc said about Vash being their only hope and scowled at his sister stroking the computer keyboard. “We need to help Vash and you’re drooling over new tech!”
“I’m not drooling! I’m looking—” Her face brightened. “Found it. Pass me the bike’s data cord.”
Chuck pulled the end of it free from the crankcase and Hannah plugged it into the keyboard’s port she had found. “How is this gonna help Vash?”
“Can’t decide on a battle plan without data.” She sat in the keyboard’s chair. “Helmet please.” Chuck passed that to her, and she turned on her faceshield after she put it on. “Okay, time to see the data in formats I know. Power levels.”
Chuck turned on his faceshield. “Show me too.” Colored bars labeled 1 - 4 appeared on his faceshield but he didn’t know what they meant. They all were almost the same height.
“And usage?” Hannah asked. “Label the systems.”
The bars shifted from vertical to horizontal labeled with words he couldn’t read yet. He recognized “cold” on the second longest line.
“Any other power sources? Batteries?” Hannah asked.
The bike answered by typing on the faceshields. “No.”
“Shit,” Hannah whispered.
“What does this mean?” Chuck asked.
“This whole ship is only running on plant power. The biggest draw is for propulsion, staying up here, followed by the cold storage. The wrenchheads are targeting the plant bulbs and if Vash and Preacher Man can’t stop them—”
“Splat on the ground?”
“Yeah. And it is really irresponsible for them to run like this without any reserves.”
Chuck looked down at the bike’s gas tank. “Is it my fault we’re gonna crash?”
“What?”
“Mom says Dad and the uncles can’t fly spaceships.”
Hannah put her hand on his back. “That’s not because they’re mice; it’s because their skills on wheels do not transfer to flying. The ones at fault are the wrenchheads trying to hurt the plant angels. You got that?”
“Yeah.” He said softly. Hannah patted his back before pulling her hand back. He looked over at her. “So how can we help Vash stop the wrenchheads?”
“Vash put us on civilian protection duty.”
“Boring. Should we shove them into lifeboats?”
The bike took away the graph to type, “Life pod capacity does not meet the mobile population.”
“I was afraid of that. So nobody can get off this bus….” Hannah’s voice trailed off and she had on her thinking face. Then she switched to Martian. “{Bike, find the landing program and input current situation variables into the calculation of safest landing outcome.}”
“Calculation made. Landing possible 75 miles for New Oregon. Human input is required.”
That was a lot of words Chuck didn’t know but Hannah didn’t stop to explain them as she continued in Martian to the bike. “{From this terminal?}”
“Yes.”
“{Firewall landing program and this terminal and then boot up.}”
Chuck looked back at the crowd, but they were all focused on what Mr. Wolfwood was yelling at more puppets and not equipment turning on. That was sneaky good. But he needed to remind Hannah of something. “{They didn’t want to go down, Hannah.}”
“{Tough. Vash doesn’t want them to die and I don’t want to crash. They are outvoted.}”
Chuck wasn’t sure if that was how voting worked, but he didn’t want to crash either. The keyboard turned on along with the smaller screen attached to it. Hannah focused on the tech and Chuck turned sideways on the motorcycle’s seat to watch her back, just like if they had to take over some of Karbunkle’s tech back in Chicago.
“{Bike, keep the power going to cold storage and propulsion. We do not need them waking up in the middle of all this going on.}”
“Yes.”
Chuck turned back to watch Hannah type on the keyboard and stare intently at the screen. “{I hope you didn’t get Dad’s ability to crash spaceships,}” Chuck told her in Martian.
“{He never taught me how to drive a spaceship, so we should be good!}” She hunched over the keyboard in her concentrating posture.
Chuck snapped his mouth shut and turned back to the crowd so he could warn Hannah if they got mad. They were all still concentrating on the screen Doc had showing the wrenchheads and Vash and Mr. Wolfwood without any visuals. Didn’t they have cameras anywhere? Limburger always installed cameras when he had to rebuild his Tower.
“What is that?” Doc asked with rapid typing. “What? How are we moving? This room?”
The crowd of ship citizens mostly asked what Doc was talking about, but Meryl-ma’am and Milly-ma’am both whirled around. Meryl-ma’am’s eyes widened when she saw the lit keyboard and she stepped toward them. “Hannah.”
Chuck shook his head. “Don’t distract the driver.”
The crowd split as Doc twisted in his seat so he had a clear view of Chuck and Hannah. “What are you doing, child?”
“Shooting the hostage,” Hannah said.
“We’re doing the Speed battle plan!” They never had a chance to do that one. Chuck thrust both his arms up. “Aoooow!”

General media: Mad Scientist jobs
I was just thinking today that despite the stereotype of mad scientists being loners, most in the media I have seen have been tenured workers.
To wit, here is a list of the mad scientists that are doing SCIENCE!! for paycheck/being asked to.
Dr.Benjamin Karbunkle (Biker Mice from Mars)- Karbunkle is not only tenured by the Plutarkian goverment, but his main concern is getting the best deal out of the fishes. Mad scientist is less of what he is and more a jobs description.
Dr.Hojo (Final Fantasy 7)- Head scientist in the Shinra corporation, despit this he does seem to fit the stereotype better as most of his projects come from him and aren’t assigned to him.
SkekTek the Scientist (The Dark Crystal)- As much as one can be hired in a pre-industrial setting, Tek is the empire’s official scientist. Mostly does stuff when pressganged into it.
Dr.Finkelstein (Nightmare Before Christmas)- The town’s official scientist, while he has his own projects, he does plenty on demand.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi (Bleach)- Soul Society’s head scientist, though mostly does what he wants.
Doctor (Hellsing)- Is a nazi scientist working for the nazi party. ‘Nuff said.
Vexen (Kingdom Hearts)- While Lexaeus and Zexion are in the science team as well, Vexen is the one that holds the Mad Scientist trope pretty hard. Technically employed as much as a Nobody CAN be employed.
Talisac (Tortured Souls)- Does a lot on demand but is mostly focused on his personal project. A freelancer by the looks of things.
Dr.Caligosto Loboto (Psychonauts)- Purely a freelancer in terms of mad science. Personal ‘project’ seems to be dentistry.
Please add ones you know into this list!
#mad scientist#rambly ddw#do not google talisac unless you want to see the worst mpreg ever#nazi mention //
