Tessa Continuation AU
Fandom: Murder Drones Age Rating: Adult Rated (The amount of gore and body-horror in it I'm going to have it this rating even if there's nothing sexually explicit) Themes: Sci-Fi, Comedy, Mystery, Adventure, Horror, Body-Horror, Eldritch Horror, Eldritch, Tragedy, Genocide, Blood, Death, Gore, Intense Gore, Torture, Irredeemable Character, No Fantasy or Magic (Sci-Fi/Eldritch/Mutant AUs are fine) Triggers: I won't actively pursue things like mouth or eye gore without asking. There are themes of sapiovore in the consumption of other beings, robot's cores or 'cannibalism' if that bothers you. Portrayal: Fanon Continuation. This character is the continuation of the Series Finale as the heavy spoiler character known as 'Cyn' but who is actually Tessa. How could that be you ask? Well, that's part of the mystery to pursue with Tessa, that they're back and seem... different using a similar look to Cyn or even off to how they originally were before being assimilated by the Absolute Solver, coupled with no open wounds and of the like. I assure you, this is all using canon, unknown/unconfirmed fates and the most reasonable, realistic way I could think of in continuing Tessa going forward. Based on the song 'Bite Me' being able to be sung from Tessa's perspective. The fact Cyn took so long to thread the needle to eat anyone's core or even outright sparing N and Uzi several times despite the game of Cat and Mouse. Or the fact that J let N's core fly right past her that Cyn 'threw' to them practically. Then along with the 'let me in' scene with N had Tessa's voice in an underlay to Cyn's. As we don't see the fate of Tessa other than her appearing with an adult VA for Cyn to impersonate and new body-type that implies a significant amount of time passed and they survived the Gala- having who knows what happen to them during that time. It could easily be a 'I have no mouth and I must scream' scenario with Tessa's 'hardware' being removed and assimilated that way from mutating into something not apart of Cyn directly because they're an organic, which later mutates into a new version of themselves after being a biological supercomputer for the Solver. This of course could just all be 'narrative-sake' by Liam, but the path is there to pursue placed by canon, so here we are. I can give a full synopsis privately, as it's fairly possible if they wanted to bring Tessa back? Summary: -Previously heavy mystery and still is, but overall this was my previous 'Cyn' before introducing my actual Cyn continuation. In reality, before I knew how small the MD fandom was? This was actually a Tessa AU. -Mutates and evolves to compliment your character's fighting style or to fight them. -Is a supervillain. -Will not be redeemed, but in a way you don't expect that isn't overtly depressing for a tragic character, but not stupidly hopeless either. They more or less get a 'happy ending' whether or not it's deserved in an imperfect, broken universe. -If you are not satisfied with what's linked or unsure of my direction? Spoiler bios doc below and I can even give my rough synopsis if I were to write a fanfiction S2 for this. -Using a fair amount of canon to build off since Tessa is implied to be an adult but died off screen by the time the series rolls out. -Ship Safe Post-Cyn Defeat. This character is an adult canonically, albeit technically dead when they return and more can be found here explaining it: >Ship Doc Here< -Canon Characters Safe to Ship with from the main caste so long as they're adults.
