From the moment I saw this i knew i had to draw it. My precious boi with his emotional support cactus.

blah blah blah japan is turning footsteps into electricity

HOWEVER!!!

Recently my friends are streaming us playing AA1-5 or Rise from the Ashes (*cough cough* here’s the plug come check us out we stream AA on Saturday evenings usually around 8 PM CST *cough cough*), and we started really expanding onto bits particularly around Jake Marshall, you know him, the police officer who screams Texan cowboy but is actually from West LA. I personally never thought much of Jake when I played RftA for the first time almost 5 years ago now, but MAN we were putting so much extra headcanon/lore stuff on him that he’s grown into an almost immediate favorite despite only seeing him for one session. Some bits include:

- He has a nut allergy

- He’s trans

- He takes his testosterone through his flask

- He has a horse named Pistachio who holds Jake’s epipen and can shoot a gun with her mouth

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY-

MARSHOE

THAT’S RIGHT, WE NOW HAVE A CRACKSHIP AMONGST OUR MIDST- AND I NEED YOU ALL TO HEAR US OUT ON THEM!! Two people in the force who do canonically know about each other and have implied-interactions??? Plus I think they’d be INCREDIBLY silly together, why not?! Please indulge in the sillies with us, this isn’t anything super serious, it is a crackship after all! But as someone who has been a hardcore fan of the series for a little over 5 years now, I think it’s super fun! Honestly kinda boggles my mind in the almost 20 years since RftA I’ve never seen art or fics of these two together either. So I’m contributing dang it!!! HERE’S MARSHOE, ENJOY SOME OTHER SKETCHES!!

If you wanna see more Jake Marshall lore, I’m gonna drop our highlight reel from our last stream, it includes more bits I didn’t list above and our origins in Marshoe :)
