ID: a coloured digital drawing of azu, hamid, sasha, grizzop, cel and zolf sat on and around a sofa in an assortment of incredibly bright and multicoloured clothes. hamid, sasha and grizzop are sat on the sofa itself with hamid sat with one knee drawn up on the left, sasha in the middle with both knees up and an arm around grizzop, who is sat sideways and leaning his back against her, with his hand gently holding sasha’s arm across his chest. azu, cel and zolf are sat on the floor, azu is on the left sat with her legs almost crossed, with cel lying in the middle with their head on zolf’s lap, who is sat upright against the arm of the sofa with his legs out in front of him. he is not wearing his prostheses. zolf has an arm resting on cel’s shoulder, and that hand is being idly fidgeted with by cel. hamid is in a bright blue crop top and huge stripy patchwork flares. sasha’s top cannot be seen and her trousers have one red and black striped leg and the other is a multicoloured harlequin pattern. grizzop is in a teal pinstriped tunic with baggy shirts with a neon rainbow with black and white diamonds on it. azu is in a pink top and green shorts with a baggy rainbow striped zip up hoodie and navy leg warmers with colourful details. cel is in a pink longsleeve with purple stripes, and leggings that are a harlequin pattern at the top with a rainbow cat from the thighs down, as well as rainbow leg warmers. zolf is in a block rainbow striped jumper with the sleeves rolled up and red and blue tartan boxers. end ID

Zolf/Wilde: You're either relatively new to the fandom, or you've been here for at least 4 years and have basically committed to these guys for life.

Wilde/Grizzop: you like Zoscar but wish there was more biting involved.

Zolf/Hamid: You like ships where the dynamic isn't so much "enemies to lovers" as it is "difficult and messy friendship to difficult and messy romance".

Wilde/Hamid: You just really like charming men in pretty clothes and I can't blame you for that.

Grizzop/Hamid: You just want to see that halfling get absolutely destroyed, and I can't blame you for that either

Zolf/Hamid/Wilde: You actually really liked the epilogues, thank you very much.

Zolf/Wilde/Grizzop: Your favourite rqg fanfic is Miri's Four Seasons Total Landscaping Au.

Bertie/Wilde: You're still on season 1.

Bertie/Zolf: You're still on the prologue.

Grizzop/Veseek: You have at least one @areyouokaypanda drawing saved on your phone.

Carter/Wilde: You are Tumblr user @crayonturtle or Tumblr user @knifemartin

Barnes/Carter: You're *still* waiting for that 18 Month Timeskip Oneshot.

Cel/Barnes: You want to kiss that sailor sooo bad... You want to live on a houseboat with him soooooo bad......

Cel/Sasha: You either really like Lydia Nicholas, or you just like characters bonding over a shared love of violence.

Grizzop/Sasha: You want to live in the woods and consensually hunt your friends for sport sososososo bad. You're also probably some flavour of aromantic but who knows.

Skraak/Hamid: You are clapping and cheering any time Hamid develops a new draconic trait. You have relistened to the second airship arc more than once.

Azu/Hamid: You just want Azu to be happy.

Azu/Kiko: You just want Azu to be happy, and you're sapphic.

Azu/Sasha: You want Azu to be happy, you're sapphic, and you can't listen to episode 125 without crying

-> So Zolf makes the band because he started the team. He is the guitarrist and I have this thing that all of the members are lyricists but the songs tend to be very different and Zolf mostly writes sad songs and very sappy romantic ballads inspired by Campbells. He temporarially left the band for a bit early on when they started getting famous because Zolf hates the fame and had a extremely hard time dealing with it. He ends up coming back cause he loves both his teammates and music too much but he is the most reclusive and secretive one.

-> Grizzop is the drummer cause Grizzop was made for drumming. He actually joined because when the band was looking for a new drummer cause Cel decided to test different things Vesseck put their name in but ended up not being abble to go and asked Grizzop to at least go warn them. For a long time Grizzop just never mentioned his kids to the band cause he operates in a need to know basis even with friends. Until two years later he said he was going to have to skip a random practice cause one of the clutch was sick and everyone was SHOCKED. Grizzop also created an uproar in the fandom when he just casually dropped that his eldest was going to college soon in a random interview.

-> Sasha plays bass. She just dropped by in the first band try-outs cause Bi Ming said a hobbie would be helpfull and she discovered that indie rock niche band members were considered cool for posting knife tricks online. She discovered at the try outs she was a natural at bass and has improved a lot ever since being maybe the best or at leaat one of the best at their instrument. Zolf did look at her very confused in the start of her try-out cause she started by showing the knife tricks. Sasha was raised by Barrett before Bi Ming took her in and sometimes will mention something very disturbing in interviews assuming is a normal childhood memory.

-> Bertie was the second guitar player but he ended up getting quicked out just months before the band truly made huge cause he kept getting into problems and they didn't like him very much. His guitar was an heirloom and he was descedant from some famous super star or at least was all he talked about.

-> Azu joined with a second guitar to match Zolfs and she was extremely talented. Azu was also the oposite of Bertie in that everyone loves her very much. In fact one of the band's early partnerships made the mistake of assuming Hamid would be the member considered sexy and most popular with the ladies. But while Hamid was a fan favorite and very popular with younger fans most of the woman pinning on a band member when pinning for Azu so they ended up having to recall Azu to take new pics cause all the saphics loved her. Ubfortunately for them Azu is very loyal to her gf professional chess player Kiko that she met at an weird art exibition about marbles.

-> Hamid is the lead singer. He used to be a famous teen popstar that got cancelled because a prank he made with his former best friend and youtube star Gideon and no one was expecting him to come back. Thing is older Hamid is undernably Hamid but also very different because being in a band you choose as an adult were u have actual control over your image and who you are, a real support group and a band that had your back is very different than his experiences as a teen superstar. The more niche smaller fandom also helps.

-> Cel used to be the drummer but they later moved to mostly backstage as the band started having more special effects and production value. They also are one of the bands main song designers. Cel also tends to appear on shows anytime the band needs an unusual instrument cause they just know how to play almost everything. Fans always mark shows with Cel with explosions and fireworks signs cause is always the wildest shows (positively).

WOOF this one took a while to figure out! thank-you-request #3 goes to you, and it's a sneaky alliance in hide the fang featuring draal, driaak and natun!!! drawing cel again was magical.
