Okay, I don't usually explain my art, I like to make it self contained, but here I just wanted to talk nonsense
I didn't look up anything on this ship cause I wanted to do my own unbiased take, so I would genuinely appreciate if someone added appropriate tags I'm missing (edit: thanks added the name to tags)
So… I looked up the lore and the timeline, and it's all just vague enough for it to be possible for Spearmaster to survive until Hunter's campaign. So, old Spearmaster design! Maybe in this scenario they got sent by SRS to help Hunter out, or maybe they just went on their last journey and randomly met Hunter, Idk, but it kinda works and it makes me happy
I like the amount of connections to be drawn between them. Both are messengers for their iterators, both are combat-oriented, but don't feel inherently violent, both seem to value their mission over their own safety and comfort… It seems to me like they'd bond, and teach each other to value themselves, since both seem to sacrifice a lot for the sake of others
I also like the idea that Spearmaster wouldn't require as much sleep as a regular slugcat, so Hunter would try and keep himsef awake for extended periods of time, not wanting to be a liability, and Spearmaster would try to care for him when they notice it
I dunno, two weathered, hurt, kind warriors supporting eachother on their last journey is a really warm scenario to me, so enjoy I guess

Woah these scug are gay, and they're poly!?!😱
If you want to know what the flags mean:
Hunter: Trans (Female to male)and bisexual
Gourmand: Bigender and pansexaul
Spearmaster: Nonbinary and gay
(sorry if toothpaste gay flag is controversial, I will change it if someone wants)

Slugcat Shipruary 4 - Love Letter
Using my Spearmaster design, @whippiekippy's Hunter design and a random TINY slugpup <3
Love Letter is extremely cute. Are these messengers off duty or are they just meeting up whenever their paths can cross?
Anyways in this situation they're caring for a slugpup together, resting after a long cycle. Their missions have been accomplished, but they're not returning to their iterators just yet.
Kip told me that xir Hunter design is part red lizard and as such bigger than average, I think I might have gone a bit too far with that but uhm. In my defense. GLIZZY???
