Hi Friends! I hope everything is going well, I really do. I think it's time to keep talking about the Drones and the Threads, and the OCs, our lovely OCs. Let's talk, shall we? The pretty extraordinary Booru: https://dronebooru.co The wheel of remarkable OCs: https://wheelofnames.com/8hc-stc Last Thread: >>102516
Just ignore that guy, he's just here to start shit. There is no proof he came up with Pavo and even if he did, I don't remeber seeing him doing jackshit with it become Switchanon drew and wrote some stuff for Pavo.
>>103423 >As soon as Mika agreed, she felt something in her shift. >STRING "MAIDEN_MOTHER_CRONE.EXE" SUCCESSFULLY UPLOADED, EXECUTE? >Shrugging internally, Mika selected yes. >Immediately she felt pressure. >Something burst from her, pressing Mika against the side of the locker. >The locker itself bulged. >Strained. >Then snapped open.
Maiden >When Mika could see again, she found... two other 'hers' sprawled out nearby. Almost exact copies of her. >Both looked slightly older. Their chassis worn, hair a little less shiny. >But... they weren't in chains. >"Huh..." The three said in unison. >"Am I you? Are you me?" They continued, again in perfect sync. >"...Okay you go first." The three said, again. They frowned. >The three were silent for a time, then -- >"Uh..." The one in chains started. "Can you two maybe get me ou..." Mika was cut off as she heard talons on concrete. >She tried to scramble out of the locker as the other two heard the noise as well. >They both met her eyes. >"Go!" Mika yelled. "I'll-" Mika popped her wings, hoping to follow the two new drones, but the chains still weighed her down. >Three sentinels ambled around the corner, looking right at Mika. >Before she could even escape the locker, a flash stopped her in her tracks. >Her body fell back into the locker. >And then, she died.
Crone >Mika ran down the empty hall with her doppelganger in tow. >She wasn't quite sure what was happening, but she knew that she was free. >And that she was in danger. >And wow she had a much better butt than she expected. >She continued to ogle the 'her' in front of her for a moment before the sentinels slammed around the corner, knocking over a filing cabinet as they chased her. >Probably not the time or place for that. >Mika ran, the two sentinels close behind. >But as they turned a corner, she found... their way out. >A massive hole in the ceiling, right where the elevator used to be. >It was night, and she saw a glimpse of the sky above. >As well as several dozen sentinels spread all over the room, the rafters, and the floors above. >All who had just been alerted to her and her twin's presence. >"Oh sugar that's bad..." Mika and her doppelganger immediately covered their eyes as several flashes were sent their way. >She felt her doppelganger bump up against her as the two stood back to back. >They were so close. >The sky was right there... >If she could just fly... but with the hole, they were more likely to just... crash if they flew blind. >She needed to see where she was going... >Well, one of them needed to see where they were going. >"I'm going to do something stupid." Mika said. "Keep your eyes closed and just go with it." >"Okay!" Her doppelganger answered. >She grabbed her twin's wrist, opened her eyes for a split second, then threw her with everything she had. >Right towards the opening. >"Fly-" Was all Mika could say before a flash caught her. >Her body collapsed, and the sentinels descended on her. >And then, she died.
Mother >Mika exploded from the hole in the ground onto the surface, wings extending as she pumped them once, twice- >And then, she was among the clouds. >She looked down, towards the lab, only to see that her other self was... already gone. >Before she could dwell on it, another message popped up. >{[(We have held up our end of the bargain, little drone. Now it is time for you to hold up yours...)]} >"What... what do you want?" >{[(We want what we want, all we ask is that when the time comes, you say 'yes'.)]} >"O-okay?" >{[(Good answer, little robot. We will be in touch...)]}
>anon opens a door >and immediately gets mooned by Pavo >the sentinel drone has his fat boy butt stuck out, his tail feathers spread >he rocks his backside back and forth, two hefty balls swinging pendulously beneath him and slapping against thick thighs >Pavo's cock, still flaccid yet intimidatingly large rocks back and forth in a lazy arc between his legs, a steady ooze of precum from backed-up balls tracing lines of sticky love juice on the floor below >Pavo looks behind him at anon, grinning, the silence of the moment broken as one arm reaches behind and gives his ample posterior a violent slap, sending it jiggling as the drone slowly, sensually spreads his behind to expose his dronahole >anon slams the door shut >"Oh boo," pouts Pavo, begrudginly putting his pants back on, wincing as the tight fabric snaps around his pent-up package >"Just a few more days, boys," he remarks, patting his big bulge, gasping and biting his lip as it nearly sends him over the edge
>>103504 I drew that in like 20 minutes and the only thing I kinda got right was the ass. that's the most important part, sure, but I can't help but crіnge at the rest of it
>>103521 NTA but I ain't reading all that. If I wanted to know about sad lesbians I'd look in the mirror, where I supernaturally trapped a group of sad lesbians.
>>103521 I joined just as the /co/ threads were ending for good. I've read up on a few characters that sounded neat but there's a ton I haven't read yet
>>103529 I drew it because I like Pavo, it popped into my head, and I thought it was funny. I got it out quick because it was just a dumb gag I wasn't sure would even be relevant if it took any longer. I'm not spiteful enough to spend time drawing something just to make the thread worse.
>>103542 >I'm not spiteful enough to spend time drawing something just to make the thread worse Oh fuck off. You did it twice. Shove your Grunt Drone fun facts up your ass and shit out something good for a change.
>>103553 I am J apologist, and I don't know what you're talking about. do you mean the Pavo ref I made? if so, I made that because I liked the character and wanted to give him reference art. if not, I legitimately have no idea what you're referring to
>New Thread Daily Fun Facts: Did you know that on old software some drones had a stack overflow glitch? It was the cause of much of the early prejudice against drones, as each individual in the drone's life was assigned an 'affinity' value from 1-256. If the affinity somehow overflowed above 256, it would immediately wrap back around to -256, inciting violence and other 'self defense' protocols that should have otherwise been restricted to emergency situations.
>>103565 I drew the reference for Pavo because I like the character, and posted WIPs as the image came along. I drew the meme seen in >>103504 for the reasons detailed in >>103542 neither of these were out of spite.
>"So, did you go to school?” V asked. Great, another fantastic question that definitely didn’t bring bad memories back. But… V seemed genuinely curious, and Uzi supposed it wouldn’t hurt to give her an answer. >"Uh, kinda? I was home-schooled, mostly, but I did go to middle school for a while." >"What was that like?" >“Bad. That’s all you need to know.” It had been a crazy idea, doomed to fail. In a shocking twist, middle school-aged Uzi wasn't bullied by the human kids for being a robot who thinks she's people. She was bullied by the human kids for being a womanlet. Also, read To Be A Rebel Or A Runaway.
>Daily fun HoDR facts: the whole reason Cyn and drones want to have children with humans is because they want to replace 'normal' humans with 'superior' humans and drones born of a human and a drone. Do not question what they mean by 'superior', just know that it was fact-verified by Robo-Snopes.
>>103504 technician anon's despair grows by the day he will have to write to the higher ups to ban the sentinels from engaging in this stupid trend in the future he can embellish technical jargon and they'll buy it
What if humanity had a colony ship sent to a place lightyears away. With the only attendants being some 100 people, around 10,000 in cryo to ensure genetic diversity, as well as a team of 15 drones. Most of which are 'clones' of sentinels that have proven themselves true protectors of humanity, outfitted with the anti-solver patch. Most likely this would include Harper and K.
>>103581 I was confused because you said I did two drawings out of spite and it didn't even cross my mind that the reference could have come across as being done out of spite.
>>103582 >"Uzi..." V started, "I need..." >Uzi just stared at V as she trailed off. "Yeahhh?" She rolled one hand as if to goad the disassembler on. >"Heeeellllp?" V sounded like she was straining to get that word out. >"Okay? What do you need help with? Did someone make fun of you for not wearing pants again?" >"What? Who-" V stopped as she realized she was getting distracted. "No, I don't know how to... talk to someone." >"Gonna have to be way more specific there." >"I want to talk to this boy..." >Uzi nearly spat out her drink but managed to cover her mouth at the last second. "Who?" >"...Thad." >"Oh wow. That's your type? Kind of robbing the cradle there." >"Pot. Kettle." V gestured from Uzi, to N in the corner who was reading a book on dogs upside down. >"I'm here too!" N helpfully announced while waving. >"Yeah okay fair," Uzi agreed. "Anyway, yeah, sure, lets go talk to him." >"What?" V said. "No, we can't just-" >"V you're hot as hell. I'm preeetty sure he'll just say yes to a date if you ask him... and promise not to eat him." >V made a noise somewhere between embarrassment and fear as Uzi ushered her out the door.
>>103607 Humanity or the Anon that posted the idea? Because the humans definitely know, that's why there's layers upon layers of software and memory wipes to try to prevent any of K's persona from resurfacing.
>>103625 You can just pay $400 to skip the quest, if you want You even get a little supporter badge, although for some reason they misspelled the word "Supporter" as "Paypig"
>>103626 I want a life outside of the grind >>103629 I will not spent more than 5 dollars in a game man, who the hell has $400 to just throw like it's nothing?!
>>103631 K was the original drone who was horrifically tortured by Holly and Calibern Labs. All Sentinel Drones are clones of this original K. The degradation that Sentinel Drones suffer from is actually caused by K's memories and personality resurfacing within them.
Little known Sentinel Drone fact is that Holly and humanity are actually the antagonists.
>>103647 >Don't want to grind all the time to get something in game >Make enough money to get what you want in a game >So busy that you can't actually play the game
>>103654 >sentinel reed is just sentinel drone sam from the series >instead of carfe he does magnets >offers you some, not realizing that the only thing they'll do is wipe your lab keycard
>>103676 So just a normal sentinel in CFL, except that his eyes are red because he's been smoking too much loud? >Alice encounters one of the sentinels by accident >It's lying on its back with a joint in its mouth >"Yer... not attacking me?" >"Nah, unless you touch my weed. I'm chill."
>>103677 doc holly got herself killed and buried under the literal remnants of her experiments, jane lived with a chance for redemption in a story of another girl named B
Sentinel but it's a dog. Just a fucking dog. Doesn't even have any special high end equipment it's literally just a dog that they tried to prototype before they decided on raptors. It likes peanut butter.
>>103690 >This robot's a failure, time to go back to the drawing board. >What do we do with it? >What do you mean? >I mean... we usually disassemble them for parts... right? >Both scientists look at the sentinel-dog. >It wags its tail. >...Give it a title and call it an emotional support model.
>>103700 >Ma'am you understand an adapter this size will literally, not metaphorically, literally split your chassis in two? >Lizzy, breathing heavily: Can I put this on a credit card?
>>103699 It would be cool if it had shades Aviator sunglasses with golden rims But it doesn't, so all I see is a dirty, traitorous rat (in both meanings of the phrase)
>>103627 Yeee! Very based, Alice is my #1🔥🧡💯, J is aesthetically extremely nice and would rank way higher were it not for episode 8. Tessa is cool too and did nothing wrong but she's human so no placement for her, she was top5 once. Maybe J is #5, Doll un Yeva 2-3, 4 is possibly Beau.
>>103645 >>103646 The snootwave is what I call the wavy shape on the slight snoot of a drine, technically it means the entire line between white and black, looks kike a stylized Yamato bow too in a way. >>103642 There's at least 3 or 5 of us these days
>>103683 The good ending, Liam should have been mote like Sam seroiusly tho, all the pushing stakes BS just to bring V back with magic, even Nori, Doll too, no one dies in the finale, Alice&Beau being sacrificed was for nothing Liam deserves violation
>>103744 This makes me sad because I know what too much soda does to teeth and kidneys. It makes her even more repulsive physically, but now I feel pity.
>>103725 Hate her all you want for being a traitor, but she was fully in the right in deserting. Wasn't her squad specifically one of the last ones standing before the planet broke?
>technician anon invites Pavo to his apartment to make some 'pissin' hot loads' >the sentinel drone practically breaks down anon's door getting in, only to find the human hard at work at his reloading bench stuffing an unwise amount of gunpowder into a .22 case
>>103750 I totally believed that would be what we'd get. Not sure if 7 or 8, V was gonna live, but such a scene, maybe with Uzi coming back up from the cathedral, worn out (not after Cyn is defeated yet), seeing the cadavre of the DD that suddenly sacrificed herself for her, it would absolutely have been in tone with the goryness of 4&6. 7 had some of it, but 8 broke the tone so far so fast that it no longer works imo
>>103750 >Tessa/Cyn approaches Uzi and N holding V's head like a sock puppet. >"Wow thanks for abandoning me you two you're such great friends - I can bring her back, you know..."
>>103750 Btw not saying that would have been better, back then we were believin a goid end to be impossible, especially after 7 (the thoughts are from after 6 befire 7 tho) cause Liam had zero mercy. I would have prefered something less oily, no stakes, what? In the end he let everyone get away easy in 8 even poor Doll got to live in a way. I'm just disapointed that he had the intent to kill Alice for nothing, just to make a joke of Sentinels with Lizzy in 8. He is such a fucking retard jesus chrust is is unreal
>>103765 >it's the end of november >NNN is almost over >Pavo's balls ache with need, he sits on his hands as not to unconsciously touch himself >the absolute solver locates the sentinel base >cyn drops a gay bomb on them >Pavo's gay + gay bomb cancel out, making him super-straight >cyn laughs as Pavo is suddenly beset by technician anon shoving his face into the drone's crotch, his hands pawing at the sentinel's length >disgusted, super-straight Pavo tries to dislodge anon but the contact is too much for him >the drone's sensitive cock spurts gallons of sentinel cum onto the human, Pavo's facial expression shifting erratically between disgust for the gay act and the best orgasm in his life >by the time Pavo has finished shooting the last of his ropes onto a thoroughly-drenched human, the effects of the gay bomb wear off >anon is ashamed and caked in sentinel seed >Pavo is pissed that he failed NNN and wasn't able to enjoy his first time with anon
>>103750 >the sentinels eat their fill and leave >V's singularity-soul-thing rises up from the remains of her core and dissipates, like J's core >Uzi's tail suddenly starts screaming in V's voice... then the screaming tapers off >"Wait... this isn't Cyn's torture dimension thing... where am I?" >"V!" N cries as he snuggles V's tiny dragon head body
>>103782 I've been meaning to make an animation of Mini Y doing the Hat Kid dance since Episode 7 but I haven't managed to develop the skill yet. Last night I saw this dancing Vegeta gif and now I want to make dancing drones. But my desires are always waaay beyond my skill and my hype doesn't last long enough to go through the whole learning process.
>>103750 Before episode 8 hit and we just had the thumbnail, I thought V's return was going to be a fakeout where Cyn had her core and killed her in front of everyone. It was obvious she survived, so I thought for sure Liam would bait and switch.
Everyone complains about the V surviving fakeout, my biggest gripe was that Uzi got pulled into a fucking pit with N, sacrificed herself to save N, and that amounted to nothing. >Oh hey I'm in space now, for some reason. Why the fuck did Cyn even bother grabbing her? It was entirely intentional. And why did Cyn come back? Why didn't they have to fight the giant planet destroying tentacles first? Nope, one void bomb and straight to an anime swordfight.
>>103804 > obvious fakeout > "there's no way he plays it straight, lowkey genius move Liam" > it's played the most straight it ever has been > "Liem you idiot"
>>103805 >Why didn't they have to fight the giant planet destroying tentacles first? >Uzi and N RULES OF NATURE-ing through the tentacles It would have been magnificent.
>>103825 Something like the part where the guy ran back onto the scare floor crying about how the kid wasn't scared of him, but with the monster feeling dirty and violated.
>>103850 >The gore lands all over Uzi and N. >The two just stare blankly at him. >"Now that's what I call a sticky situation." Gadget laughs. >After a moment N laughs too. "I get it, because it's sticky!"
>>103844 It would be kino >Cyn mocking the Flood, saying something like "Chiding tone. Pathetic. They are not durable at all. Kill them, John." That entire level would be hilariously unscary with Cyn dunking on the Gravemind's spawn the entire time
>>103875 >Reality begins to break down as paradoxes tear holes into its fabric >Gadget has gone mad with power >What's next? Inspector Gadget building with brown bricks in Minecrap?!
>>103878 Holly really did influence a lot of stuff, didn't she? I think that's a fair assertion, without her we wouldn't have some of the office au, the sentinels, technically HoDR...
>>103648 Anon cut me some slack, if it's against lore you gotta explain why that's against lore and maybe suggest an alternative. What could K do to be a character in this setup?
>>103878 Imagine shooting her in the eye with a flare gun. Jane screaming as the projectile is spitting fire into her skull. Then she catches fire because all the grime has made her flammable. She runs through the corridors screaming but nobody helps her because drones are honestly jerks. Jane burns up so badly that she walks forward in a creepy manner before dropping to her knees and finally burning to death. I just came a little.
>>103891 Your setting works fine for the most part. I just thought it was funny that you declared K a protector of humanity, when she's the reason Sentinel Drones are basically lobotomized.
>>103888 Holly predates HoDR by a few months, but she didn’t really get character focus until around the summer of this year, way after the HoDR discussion had passed. She was just the antagonist for an Ao3 fic for the longest time, not really a thread OC. This is a reminder that everybody should revisit their old OC’s right NOW
>>103897 using N as a sleep aid....... the sound of his heart's steady rhythm, his breathing like ocEAN MAN, TAKE ME BY THE HAND, LEAD ME TO THE LAND, THAT YOU UNDERSTAND
>>103878 Pretty sure that'd be Beretta, chief Fankid for the main couple that everyone basically agrees on, not to mention being featured beyond these accursed walls multiple times
Help, I told the drones they were cute and now they're swarming me. I can't get five minutes alone. One snuck into my bathroom when I was taking a shower and just... stared at me. I didn't even realize it was there. I'm pretty sure she sold the video to the others. They're in my walls Anon. They're in my fucking walls!
>>103916 I love Beretta too but the reason why I say Jane is because Beretta never managed to start so many arguments and discussions, except concerning how little development she got in comparison to Jane. Like, the solver war is a given now, but back then we were endlessly talking about it so we could give “Jane the Human” a cool backstory. The entire period of winter to spring of 2024 where literally every thread was an argument started because Pocketsteaks made fun of a guy for not liking humans OCs, and that anon decided to mount a vendetta against him up until the booting from /co/. Nobody ever wanted to kill Beretta because she got such a disproportionate amount of thread focus.
>>103926 You know, there's constellations that have short enough names that work as names while others have long names that getting the right name to be shortened and sound good is hard.
>>103934 I mean on one hand I agree, on the other it's just the one wanker with a hateboner on a crusade (which feels oddly typical for 4chan) I don't know if I'd say that makes her more influential, but it definitely keeps her in the public eye
Guys I need help. I scratched S at the base of her tail and she started yordeling but now she's super horny and trying to break down my bedroom door. I don't want to waste money at the hospital, how can I get her to calm down?
>>103934 > Pocketsteaks made fun of a guy for not liking humans OCs It was actually about a guy who was a Schizo and was one of those "Everyone who doesnt agree with me is one guy!" and would spam replies and make long paragraphs of schizoid ranting (Who was probably also Oilrig on second thought), and he got made fun of for it.
>>103943 By that metric H, E, Lily, and a handful of others have just as much sway There's a difference between showing up outside in general and showing up outside IN STYLE
>>103944 I dont think its a stretch to say Jane has been insanely influential on thread culture since her development, some even cite her as being the end of one OC era the the beginning of another. Beretta is mostly another post good ending child, but considering her history Jane is a beast.
holy shit shut up why do we recycle this same damn drama with the same damn talking posts every few threads are you not tired? Are you not bored of the same discussions? Look at this thing eating a banana or talk about OCs in their actual context and not le drama
Since we're talking about drawfags, I've only ever noticed maybe 4 or 5 drawfags post art outside the threads. The others I've looked and they don't have an online presence at other places at all. Why is that?
>Cyn continues to type on her keyboard. "Jane is shit and so is Beretta you are all a bunch of-" Cyn leans over to her side, spinning the 'wheel of slurs'. >Yup, today was a hard one, but someone had to do it.
>>103971 honestly that game was kinda just. eh The models where cool and the writing where fine. but I genuinely forgot it existed until you mentioned it.
Who cares which OC is more influential, make shit thats for fun or for story telling reasons. Nothing kills creativity like trying to go capitalist on a basket weaving forum, youre not getting payed for this.
The advent of Beretta/Jane OC power couple is one of those things that goes completely underrated in thread history. it was right around that time just before that anons began to run out of ideas for both of them in their initial concepts, and then somebody (probably Danon) decided to smash a traumatized war veteran and a lonely teenage girl and made the most successful OCs, against all odds they played off each other and gave eachother depth like nothing else that come before. Jane defined the story of the past the people wanted to bad and Beretta defined the future. Out of that, we got the context to bridge the Solver War and the Post-Good Ending, just like that. I personally think that it's that lack of proper dynamic why some OC's seem to boom and then flounder, like Lucy, as it is unfortunate to say, and why others seemingly thrive with companions. I think the best example right now is SD-Q and Bet, they were literal nobodies until they got put together, it was as simple as putting the eccentric with a straight man and it worked perfectly Moral of the story: pair up your OCs, like Strychnine and Marcy, me thinks
