This is a redraw of a 2022 drawing I did back on Twitter - an interaction with BBAU RP accounts :)

Yay!!!

Some notes:

These are based on canon. No interpretations

I want to make others like Viktor, Gonzalo, Dave, Frances, Lady Blossom, and more, but I don't have the proper items for them yet, sorry

One day I'll give them animal partners

If it prompts you with "Overwrite?" despite never adding them before, it means they're sharing a player ID with another friend you've added. I apologize for any inconvenience

"Denied Past" - A one-off short going into the immediate aftermath of Gonzalo and Denied's games going Online. Supposed to paint a portrait of how their shared player's behavior messed them up in different ways, mostly Denied

"So I went to this party" - Another one-off short where Joe 5 meets Denied post WTTW. Begins the process of bridging two groups together as Denied struggles with his feelings for Aldurra

DEPE Vol I Intermission - The last part of DEPE Vol I. Through a dream, Emil is in for a reunion with someone he presumably lost three years ago

Notice:

This is a "pilot" of a story idea, and comprises of six (6) sections. Some are longer than others.

It takes place in the same universe as the Baldi’s Basics AU, Save The Game, and particularly Welcome To The Webspace.

For readers of the latter: Billi =/= Billy. Billi originates from a 2025 Tumblr April Fools joke where he "took over" my blog for a week.

The year is 203X. The X is an unfinalized number.

Oh, and what if Emil had a cat form too. Not like an El Gato monstrosity, but an actual cat. It would be brown like his hair, honey yellow eyes... I wonder if he'd have tiny dark spots, dyed from the skin to the pelt (like an egyptian mau)... It would reference his freckles.

And he wouldn't have this form for no reason. If he wanted to be left alone, most people would pass by his office if they can't find him, ignoring the brown cat (assuming that the agency just has two cats).

Or he could use it for stealth during his investigations. Most people think nothing of a random cat trotting along.

Where'd he get the ability? Copying, not taking, the actual agency's cat's data (Animorphs style for simplicity's sake), then modifying it to match Emil instead.
