"What do you want driver to do, take a saw and cut us in half?"

Mac has never regretted his words more than he does now. Don't worry though, no MightyMacs were actually harmed! It was all just a bad dream... probably. ;P On that note, Happy Halloween everyone! <3

Wanted to draw something spooky for the season and since I've still got MightyMac on the brain, they were the unfortunate victim. x"D Nothing too over-the-top, of course, but it's fun to get a little more spooky every now and then >:3 Separation is 100% one of their greatest fears, not bc they neccessarily enjoy being stuck together forever but because they don't know what would happen. And not knowing is always scarier, isn't it? Spooks aside, I hope y'all have a great Halloween however you celebrate (and even if you don't!) <3 I know I'm gonna be hanging with my bestie and prolly eating lotttss of candy LMAO maybe going out we'll see BONUS DOODLE!

And it was all just a bad dream. xD Welp, no more horror movies for Mac! Not for a looong time LOL

Hi! Well for starters, Nia is actually narrow gauge in my au (a NGR Class N 4-6-2T 1906/South African NG 4-6-2T 1906)

Nia was built by and for the Natal Government Railways in 1906, she worked around the KwaZulu-Natal province mainly the Weenen-Estcourt line where she worked for mixed traffic either delivering produce (after all the line was known as the Cabbage Express) then after being sold off to the Moçâmedes Railway in 1915 she ends up globetrotting about in South Africa and neighboring regions like the Cairo to Cape Town line (she was also a participate in ww1 delivering supplies to the locals she had entirely mixed emotions which is why she secretly leaves but ends up in Western Front where she meet Freddie and Stanley)

The trio ended up bouncing around together thanks to Stanley's "jinx" though both familial figures never held any grudge against him and defended him especially during their old railway (not the msr) where they were all mistreated badly, especially Stanley thanks to his "bad luck" the manager who also hailed from South Africa (the Western and Eastern Cape) often used Stanley being mistreated by the other engines as leverage where she and very fierce arguments with until he got rid of her (his uppercommence doesn't come until years later

She came to the Mid-Sodor in the late 1920s where she worked in the mines with Millie, Luke, Bertram and Atlas so when Stanley finally was reunited with her and Freddie in 1938, they're quickly took him under their nonexistent buffers to show them the ropes, when the railway started in decline after ww2, Nia was along soem of the engines who willingly themselves herself to be sold off to keep the railway afloat, wanting Stanley to having a regular working service.

She, Luke, Mighty Mac and Freddie were actually brought together to work at the aluminum works and electric power station companies. Now she tends to work on the either the skarloey's northern end of the line doing shunting at the quarries, being part of the Gleigh Fell Quarry Company, she now works with Luke Freddie and mighty Mac the most occasionally she takes up maintenance alongside atlas rusty and Fred even the weed killer train which she doesn’t mind often taking advantage of being alone with her thoughts and observing her new surroundings

Like She sometimes also helps taking passengers on the narrow gauge express that runs alongside with duke from ulfstead to crovans gate, even to the estate railway and even revisiting the cronk and harwick scenic heritage railway where’s shes reunited with kwaku after discovering he wasn’t scrapped and helps with her recovery of survivors guilt

Fun fact she was the maintenance engine for the skarloey railway until atlas comes in who in turn he and Nia take rusty under their nonexistent buffers, she’s tends to sees all of them (Falcon they bond over their fear of heights, Stuart cause he's cheeky she keeps Andreas on his wheels when he gets too big-headed), as brothers/siblings/familial, Luke and Stanley are her kids. She's a polygot and is one of the engines who helped Ivo Hugh learn to "speak" with whistles/morse code though she does have to tendency to put her work first before her own needs and health like if she's working with someone who's is giving her a difficult time or a mechanical issue she tries to complete the job first (having participated in a war totally doesn't help at all)

Nia often sings when she works to help her concentrate. She’s pretty popular with the coaches and passengers because of it. Unlike Duke's relationships, she and Stanley tease each other and push each others buttons, but it’s all in good fun. And when push comes to shove, they’ll always have each other’s backs. The other engines assume that Stanley or Freddie is Nia’s best friend, and while she does think he’s a good friend, he’s not her best friend. That honor goes to Millie, having also been part of a war but they got along swell the moment they met at the mines on the MSR, Nia offers to take passengers or anything to visit Millie at the Ulfstead Castle and keeps her updated on everything, from gossiping to a quick chat.

When they first met Duncan and Nia 100% teach each other swears. Why, imagine the thin controller’s (sir Handel Hans brown) surprise when he overheard Nia calling a particularly rude passenger a… well I don't think it’s best to know. And to be fair it was well deserved after the passenger called Luke and Stanley names and drove Luke to tears (bonus: Stanley joins in) She also expressed disappointment and tried to help both sides with strict tough yet understanding love over the remaining MSR engines treatment of Duncan when Andreas scarified himself and ended up in a coma

Tell me what you think ^^

Dunchan

He is a a big grump in Narrow gruge and is just tired of everyone's crap,He trys his best to be cheerful around Rusty and Luke but sometimes he gets carried away.

He loves animals despite not looking like it and he is is very fond of being Rusty's best friend.

Dunchan can sometimes not be understandable when he's mad and would talk super fast making sound like it's gibberish,Rusty is the only one that can calm him down when he is really mad and crossed.

He hates winter and snow cause he isn't a cold person and is starting a club with Oliver called "Winter hating club"...No Joke XD",He doesn't like super hot weather either so is favorite seasons are Spring and Fall.

Luke

Is the youngest in the narrow gruge engines next to Rusty and is such a pure boy,He loves animals and he has a pet deer that he visits which he named him Doobie.

He is best friends with Rusty and the love playing around and getting there tasks done,Luke sees Rusty as family and enjoys being with her alot.

He enjoys playing with Rusty's pet dragon and they even have her and Doobie have a pet playdate together,He is willing to stand up to what is right and will not hesitate to protect his friends if needed.

Mighty-Mac

They are conjoined twins that have to work together with there job and such,They can have arguments in which causes problem's but they do eventually get over it and feel bad for it.

They learned how to different and accepted it has it was,They don't care if there different or made fun off cause they know that's what they were made as.

They have the ability to separate but it causes them to lose there ability in there legs so there is a bug in there abilities.

Mighty

He is he more mature and older sounding than the two and is the one that acts older despite not being it,He has a much deeper voise than Mac but doesn't mind it.

He useily starts arguments cause he thinks that Mac is too childish when that's not true and he is always nagging to Mac about certain things.

Mac

He is a more playful and is he the more hyper one Out of the twins,He hates being nagged by Mighty but is still learning how to just inore it.
