#callback ping

Haii everyone! It’s been a while since this blog’s been gone, hasn’t it? It’s nice to be back, even if it is with a fresh new blog. I can’t wait to fill it up with commentary, sneak peeks, and interact with the murder drones community once more… But before I do that, let’s recap-

For all returning & new viewers of this blog, I started a project called Murder Drones: Re-Imagining back in October of 2024 [If I recall correctly]. During the blog’s existence, I created a lot of artwork, made an ask blog, posted WIPs of future stuff, and even started an A03 fanfiction to write out my new story [which is still up btw]. I had a lot of fun with the blog; however, somewhere in between, my perfectionism got the best of me, and I ended up feeling obligated to get something out, which took the love out of the project for me. I ended up deleting the original MD: RI blog and going quiet for around a year. I changed my A03 status to Discontinued, and I thought I’d never touch it again…

However, my love for Murder Drones never died out, even after I deleted everything. I’d end up thinking about the blog every now and then and remember all the progress I’d made; All the art, comments, and the fact that it was the longest blog I’ve kept up and the most progress I’d ever made on a project. So, after much contemplation, my fixation for Murder Drones, and looking back on old comments from my A03 story, I’ve decided to not only come back and recreate the Murder Drones: Re-Imagining blog, but to do a complete re-write of the story since I know I can do better than before with my storytelling.

It’s an ambitious task, but it’s one I’m determined to tackle; I'll pace myself so as not to burn myself out and end up repeating a choice I’ll later come to regret.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

For those who still check my A03 now and then, you may or may not have noticed a new “chapter” which is really an announcement giving a smaller version of this post. You may have also noticed that my status on A03 has changed from Discontinued to Re-Writing. This is intentional, as I won’t just be rewriting the characters, but the chapters I’ve written for my story so far. Looking back at my writing, I feel I was onto something, though the characters weren’t as planned out as I originally believed, so they’re getting cooked, and I’m starting somewhat from scratch. 

I’m not entirely sure if I can archive my old text aside from just copying and pasting into my Google Docs, so if someone likes collecting old texts from stories they like, gimme a heads up in the comment section, I’ll keep a copy of all my old text! I read everything! While you’re in the comments, feel free to tell me what you missed about the old blog, and I’ll see what I can do about bringing it back to help make the blog more engaging.

[WARNING!]

Please do NOT send private DMs to this blog! If you have a question about a character, wip sketches, commissions, etc., please ask in the comments of any post I make. Any messages to my dm will be ignored, and please: nothing inappropriate! I wanna make this clear in advance because I got a few DMs on the previous blog and don't want the same thing happening here!

Before I end this announcement, I wanted to say one last thing…

Thank you to everyone, past and present, who's supported and taken an interest in my reimagining project! I’m really excited to start working on this project once more. Your patience has been much appreciated, and although I hate to ask for more, I know those who really like my project will stick around for the quality. With that, this announcement has come to a close! Hope you all have a wonderful day, and peace out!

[ WELCOME BACK :) ]

Uhh messed up but it’s just supposed to be a quick doodle anyways idk

I know they both have a lot of trauma and one of my headcanons is that sometimes Uzi just hears the memory of that ping in her dreams. Being under the Solver’s influence is one thing, but trying to resist that with pure willpower would be horrific :,(
