Dimension G10

Greetings again fellow plumbers. As full illustrations take a good while, I've decided to share sketch pages so I can post more regularly.

Omg so I just realised this after making that poll about gwens car.

Everytime Gwen got powerful, she had a relation to shades of purple /pink.

Like right from her lucky girl costume. It was shades of Violet!

And her anodite form too, Violet. Or a different shade of purple?

It's cool to think about how blue is her low energy form or her baseline , kinda like an everyday outfit sorta thing.

We see in It's Not Easy Being Gwen how the girls bends over backwards to meet everyone's needs- do you think she would still be like that even with the hero shenanigans stemming from wielding the Omnitrix? Would she use aliens for everyday things too? And do you think Frank and Nathalie would be more supportive?

Frank is going to know since the end of the first summer given my plans for Goodbye and Good Riddance to make it Actually Make Sense in the context of the show, and while he is freaking out because a giant alien just attacked him, destroyed their house, and then attacked his daughter— he’s more worried about the immediate breakdown of worry Gwen has about everything following her home and catching her up on the fact he knows about the Plumber stuff and to Please Never Tell Your Mother.

He is supportive when he clocks that this is neither something Gwen wanted to deal with, something they can’t immediately change, and something causing his youngest kid obvious distress, so he’s understanding her quick and asking what he can do to help. Covers for Gwen for the ~year she has the watch until the following summer when the Malware accident happens and when UAF rolls up, he gets banished to the couch for a while when Natalie figures out the 5 year lie and coverup her husband and youngest child kept under her nose before she even grapples with the information herself. She ends up still “Not in the house” about it, but can take pride in the good job her daughter does if she mentally reframes it as Gwen doing charity and community work again.

She has mixed feelings when the peace awards start coming in and overshadow all of Gwen’s other awards of academic excellence and martial arts. On one hand, proud. On the other, she doesn’t like any of this alien stuff and whatever wall portion they had spaced out in the living room for shelves of awards and certificates for her family getting overcome by said alien stuff. She also doesn’t like how apparently the whole galaxy knows their address and has almost taken many a household appliance to the skull of random alien ambassadors teleporting into their home.

Gwen does use her aliens more frequently and for mundane reasons, like Ben would but for goofing off, but she does normally do that behind her mom’s back like she does the magic in Prime timeline. Clone/Ditto to cover chores, XLR-8/Dash or Fasttrack/Marathon if she wants to get an extra few minutes of sleep missing the bus and can still make it to school on time, JuryRigg/I.M.P. if their car has trouble and generally hanging out with Kevin for Car Talk, and her smart aliens to make notes when heroing takes away too much study time and she needs to catch up. Doesn’t use them for homework or projects, just to make study material to save the reading time since all her extracurricular is going into saving the planet more often than not.

Unironically, OG 10 line up has her liking Psyche and Update (Grey Matter and Upgrade) most for her own hobbies while, in a fight, she prefers Dash and Knockout (XLR-8 and Four Arms).

Later transformations have a preference to Florana and Clone (Wildvine and Ditto)

Alien Force has her liking Eurekrab and Amp (Brainstorm and Echo Echo). She even Ultimates both of them.

Ultimate Alien, outside her Ultimates, has her enjoying I.M.P. and Life Guard (Juryrigg and Water Hazard)

Omniverse debuting aliens has her preferring Chicken Strach and Charmilla (Kickin Hawk and Whampire)

Oh, I think I’ve said it a few times but I can summarize again happily.

Drafted plans; Albedo doesn't see Gwen as worthy of the Omnitrix for most the same reasons but also because he thinks Azmuth is making special exceptions about his whole "I created the Omnitrix for galactic peace, so people could walk in one another's shoes" stuff because Gwen is not as at home in her transformations as Ben is and her use leans more towards an Ult Ben 10K-esque approach of the aliens being powerful tools and her own form being preferred. He doesn't see Gwen as worthy in his own eyes, or in the reason Azmuth gives for why she still has it.

When Albedo does end up glitched into Gwen's form and her as default for the transforming of his Omnitrix, his desperation to try and get back into his own body, like, yesterday is majorly slightly motivated by how much he hates the human body and how long it was taking to get him back into his body. He does not like the pre-menses; he does not like the actual menses, and by whatever tech-gods they used to worship he is not looking forward to the post-meses and whatever else comes with the nightmarish female human hormonal cycle he is trapped with. He'd rather be eating metal as a Necrofriggian and having babies than the human body punishing him for not having babies. Free him

Gwen, immediately, is sympathetic to the whole "Stuck in a body not at all your own and suffering that nightmare 24/7" because she was never proud of inflicting that on Kevin as a kid and it had been her worst fear since getting the Omnitrix. What she is not sympathetic for is being lied to, Albedo attacking random people to try and find her location, and all the other shit he does in his first appearance.

They fight; he gets his genetics permanently fucked up and turns Albino (I so wanted to color swap him to have blue hair, but alas, the Albinism is a genuine issue IRL and the color palate fucks hard) and Azmuth handles things by sending Albedo off to jail while Gwen is protesting "Hey, maybe give him his body back? Wtf?" but Azmuth doesn't listen.

Cue the villain nonsense, cue Gwen taking his Ultimatrix in the finale, and then cue Gwen 10 Live! where she genuinely wants to strangle this man for making her useless in her human form and battle reliant on her aliens (She does not take all her martial arts for this slander) and personal offence shared with Kevin when his dancers strut on stage looking Chip and Dale's-esque.

By this point, Gwen's identity is as it was for Ben with it being out (actually earlier than Ben's, she nipped that in the bud), and she threatens Albedo for slandering her and tells him to shut down the show. Because, like, rude presentations of them my guy. Ben 10 timeline and Gwen 10. Albedo agrees to shut it down, to his actors' dismay, and goes on with the same plan of tricking them to ruins Albedos chance of getting his body back and leaving Earth.

Cue the misunderstanding, cue Gwen learning the truth and being about 5 seconds away from going Humungosaur on Hugh and kicking his ass for lying to her and being a shitty friend, but then everything gets worse for Albedo has his body situation gets worse.

Cue the Night of the Living Nightmare episode, and Gwen is there when Albedo wakes up in Plumber Medical or whatever while Albedo is still reeling from the about 2 hours of continuous psychological torture that put a strain on his psyche (ha) and his body with all the convulsing and Gwen has a conversation with him. She's sorry for all that happened, she wishes Albedo didn't have to live her nightmares so often and she doesn't want him to keep living them and offers whatever help he needs to fix the new issue with his forms and get least get him back to being Galvan.

This Albedo actually gets a helping hand and is allowed a forgiveness arc of the two of them actually getting along and him getting his body back by the time of Omniverse.

By that time, they've made nice, Albedo is back in his Galvan form and back to the trade that was most rewarding for him (Show business) and Gwen, considering the issues with her mom at this point and her still wanting to try for college despite the risk of heroics limiting her schedule, agrees to let Gwen 10 Live! happen again so long as 1. Her and Kevin get a small cut and 2. Her and Kevin get veto power on stories, so Albedo doesn't humiliate them to the Galaxy. Albedo gets story ideas from details that wouldn't be covered so easily by the news and legal rights to even do his show again, and his frog butt gets to happily sit in a director's chair and oversee his projects. He is in charge, doing something he loves, pursuing other film/serial ideals to his whims, and kicking the other Gwen 10 show's ass in the ratings and has probably never been happier.

Good ending for Albedo, Gwen actually understood the Body Dysmorphia he goes through while Ben might've been more clueless because he saw his transformations as Body Euphoria (when really the writers just hated Albedo for some reason)

Gwen : I can't believe we're missing the stars with scars horror movie makeup demonstration for this.

I know I've posted a similar post before but this one is different.

I remember seeing a fanart of gwen’s humangosour having spikes and is bigger than ben’s ( some female lizards are bigger than males in rl)

Yessss, I love when the gender dimorphism (if there is any) makes sense for the species

Like, some ideas I have that are full headcanon or actual canon range from

Gwen’s Four Arms having hair, but it’s a Mohawk/Battle braid mix

Her Ditto gets some Dot inspiration and has the top, middle of her head-fin sorta split for the illusion of Dots hair in a bow; and that’s purely for reference

Loboan form having her ginger coloration and looking more coyote than Ben’s dark wolf

Ripjaws being physically bigger, alongside a pronounced chest crest and wider jaw radius (carries eggs). I actually had to like, restrain myself creatively bc I wanted the size difference to be like irl Angler fish but she’d be ginormous then lol

Her Grey Matter only gets the small, hairlike nodules when she’s older (Gwen 10K era) like how Ben’s would get the whiskery looking beard ones. No actual hair, that shit was ugly

Mole-Stache has the mustache across the sexes, Gwen would hate it.

Upchuck is again, physically bigger and kinda fucks with the social system of the planet if she visits because they seem to have a bee situation going on

My headcanon is that when older gwen says " there's a spell for every time and place" I just KNOW paradox is in the background sighing and shaking his head because gwen, not only does not listen to him lol especially after that whole charmcaster killed everyone thing, but is also now getting her younger self excited about it.

Also the fact that gwen can so casually travel back and forth in time, I wonder what other things she's changed.

I think the writers were cowardly idiots who didn't really keep track of Gwen's spells effectively and made-up new ones whenever their writing/plot demanded it, ending up with there being a culminative total of about 238 spells (Verbal and Non-Verbal, not including her manna only uses) which is a lot more than the 61 aliens Ben has, and even those have repeats of powers/uses in them that are egregious

Legit, especially after Ben 10,000 Returns, why was she not spamming "Statua" to freeze battalions of enemies in place in every fight? Especially when that one, unlike her few teleportation spells, don't show a sign of taking a lot of stamina/energy out of her AFTER she's already been fighting?
