I FINALLY FINISHED THAT FIC ABOUT THE UZI AND DOLL.
ON THE NIGHT OF THE LAST SERIES, yes I have a very fast writing pace if you look at the art release date
But I finished it anyway!
And I'm also drawing art right now and really hoping to finish it before the premiere, looking forward to the finale!
Nerdy the Artist’s Murder Drones Fanfiction Spotlight!
Welp, it’s finally here! Sorry if this is a long time coming, or that this is shorter than expected. Nintendo has started to show more of Metroid Prime 4, and so my brainrot over Metroid has been reignited. Never the less, here it is! Following in the footsteps of my Metroid Fanfiction Spotlights, I am now going to be highlighting several fanfictions I have read that I believe are worth your time. I tend to focus on in depth storytelling and character exploration, but there may be an exception to that. In any case, these are in no particular order, though they will largely just be in the order I find them in.
1. Intermission
Link: https://youtu.be/VKzv_3q_b8E?si=8dbsFUpev2taOp5D
How could I make a post about Murder Drones fan stories without bringing up Intermission? This a fan episode of Murder Drones set between episodes 4 and 5, dealing with the aftermath of Uzi’s corruption from the Absolute Solver and further setting up Cyn and the past of the Murder Drones. The video is done as a well animated storyboard, with great sfx work and riveting voiceover performances. It even has its own soundtrack! The story isn’t perfect, but I do recommend watching it between Cabin Fever and Home, as it breaks up the breakneck pacing of that stretch of the show. There is also voice actors in this episodes also do a great job. Their impressions are ok at best, but the amount of emotion they bring to their roles is astounding. V, in particular, benefits immensely from this episode, getting center stage in much of the episode, and the nuanced and varied emotions for her character are delivered perfectly, showcasing her manic and tender sides in depth. If you wish you had more V, look no further than Intermission. I know most of you will have watched Intermission by now, but there for the new people to the series, go watch this incredible project.
2. Forgive and Forget. Forgive and… Forget.
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/61109395/chapters/156137086
Forgive and Forget is a fic that gyrates between cute and disturbing at an unpredictable interval. As of writing this, the author, Kiwi11, has gotten 9 chapters of this story out. It follows V as she wakes up aboard the Disassembly Drone transport ship. Due to some programming faults, she ends up being the only one in the group to remember their past, the Elliot Manor, Tessa, and a few small traces of memory of a certain fourth worker drone. There’s a lot of tech explanations of the ins and outs of the Worker and Disassembly Drones that I just eat up. There is also a lot of attention paid to the sort of secondary personalities the trio has. The ruthless obsession with company goals isn’t J’s coping mechanism in this or a sincere belief, it’s an intrusive split personality that takes over during moments of stress, making her more ruthless to even the people she cares about. I’ll leave it at that to keep you guys safe from spoilers. While this story isn’t finished, I can already say confidently it is worth a read.
3. Onions
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/61979827/chapters/158492584
Onions is, at its core, a sort of What If type of rewrite of Murder Drones, centered around one specific change; what if V found Uzi first instead of N? However, this isn’t just some halfassed excuse to write Vuzi Fanfiction. There is genuine creativity on display from nyhll. Firstly, things don’t play out quite the same as in the show. The changes are subtle, chains of events that wind up causing further changes down the road. One such occupance is from the scene where the Murder Drones find one of their own having gotten past the first and second bunker doors. As V doesn’t respond to the whole company schtick and dangling of trinkets, V isn’t given the “branded peeeeeeeeen” and thus Uzi doesn’t have it for the 2v2, causing the fight to go much worse, as well as the railgun getting destroyed in episode 1 rather than episode 2. Additionally, there are additional chapters set in between the corresponding episodes, adding extra depth to characters like Doll and Kahn. It is absolutely worthy of your time for that alone. But also… the whole vampire romance thing is played up here much more. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy it for that as well. You’ll find my partners laughing at me in the notes.
4. Experiment
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/63463585
Many of the stories here are rather long (or will be once they are finished), so how about a little one shot for a change of pace? This story, written by Kenns02, tackles a particular oddity of the Absolute Solver; it can regenerate clothes, like N’s hat. This fun little fic display the main cast testing to see the extent of that ability, as well as its imperfections. It’s a fun short thing to read when you’ve got a minute to spare.
Decided to draw V today. I still haven’t quite cracked the code on her hair, but I’m getting there.
no matter what happens with season finale tomorrow, I am most definitely writing some kickass fanfiction
So if you’re at all in the Murder Drones fanbase, chances are you’re feeling a bit cheated right now. The series has had a lack of focus that even its most die-hard fans (such as moi) have noticed. The pace has just been too fast for it to really get down into character motives other than some basics and feels like it throws out more red herrings than real concrete answers. (Stay with me here.)
While I don’t know what Glitch, Vickers, or the team has planned for the finale, I can confidently say this. I feel like the series’s greatest flaw can also be its greatest strength for keeping the fan base alive after the finale. Yes, there’s a lot of red herrings, yes, there’s a lack of focus, yes, some of the characters don’t feel very fleshed out. But that gives us a wonderful opportunity to get to do that ourselves. It gives us a space and the freedom to be able to create what we want without half the fanbase going “NUH uh!1!”. Believe me, I’ve been in plenty of fanbases that while the source material is sound, well thought out, and executed flawlessly, it kind of left the fandom with little to play with when it came to worldbuilding, and when someone HAS tried to go and put their own personal spin on a character, portion of the story, or lore, people come out from the woodworks and dogpile on them. I personally think Murder Drones is in a perfect “problem” of the opposite. When there’s missing chunks to the story, that gives us plenty of room to reimagine the story with our own creative spin. I think that this’ll give the folks who’ve come to love MD a place to stay and a community to keep on creating in for a while to come. Yes, I’m sad it’s coming to an official end, but I think this will drive those of us who love it and care to create more amazing things that keep this series alive. Dare I say, more alive than ever before.
So in short, while I personally worry about this finale, remember, fellas, this gives the fanbase a place to shine ;)

"Late apology"
Fanfiction of Doll x V from Murder Drones
There will be 5 endings, sad ending 1 and sad ending 2, happy ending (they will kiss 😔💔), and lastly bad ending 1 and 2 (those two last endings are not shipping btw, I don't like toxic yuri!)
Let's start, shall we?
Nori, Khan, Uzi and N successfully defeated Cyn (absolute solver). The church started to collapse but they managed to escape. But Cyn's corpse was still in the church (and also Doll's corpse). They exited outside and meet with Thad, Lizzy and J
J: You guys.. Actually... Did it..? You defeated Cyn.... Where is Tessa...?
N: Well.... Tessa... Cyn kinda... Uhh.. How do I put this.... But hey! Looks like I was usefull for once! :D *finger guns*
J: Ughhh... Stupid idiot... I'll go find Tessa-
N: Tho... I wish V could see that we did it... I wish I could have saved her...
J: Well, idiot, about that....
Then V suddenly flies up to them
V: I am proud of you N *smiles and hugs N*
Meanwhile in the back:
Lizzy: Yeah, yeah, good job, freak. Have you seen Doll anywhere?
Uzi got a little nervous and sad
Uzi: Well... About that.. She.. She didn't make it... I-I *starts shaking a little*
Lizzy was shocked, she drops her phone and shaking too
Lizzy: W-What.... No.. I don't belive you... You frea-
Then Uzi suddenly hugs Lizzy
V sees Lizzy
V: Oh hi Lizzy, how is it... Going..? Lizzy..? Are you.. Okay?
Lizzy: D-Doll... Didn't... She.. Died...
V was kinda shocked, she didn't expect that
V: What... I-I... *she turns to Uzi*. Is her corpse still in that church..?
Uzi shakes her head saying yes
V went to the remainings of the church. Trying to find Doll's body.
Meanwhile in the church :
Doll's core somehow escapes from Cyn's stomach (?), the core was kinda damaged tho, but it managed to get into its body.
V is searching for Doll's body, she then finds it. She tried to carry it, but she suddenly got vision on how Doll died, she felt guilty, she had died alone, in fear. V carries Doll's body and they went to Doll's house.
V: Guys... I have to go.. I need to put her.. Next to her parents...
V then flies away, still carrying Doll's body.
V: We're close to your house... I-I am really sorry... For everything... I know words.. Don't mean anything now.. I killed both of your parents... I actually.. Feel quilt now... First time actually... (doesn't apply to her past tho).. I-I made your life... Worse... I made it.. Like a living hell... I took everything from you.. I am so sorry...
They arrived at Doll's house
V: We arrived... Soon you'll be with your parents again..
V hugs Doll, she kinda started crying
Sad ending 1
V: I hope you rest in piece... You deserved so much more... You were one little brave drone....
V puts Doll on the chair, that she placed between her parents...
V: Goodbye... *salute*
Doll wakes up, everything was bright.. She suddenly notices two drones.. She realized that those were her parents. She started running towards them
Doll: М-Мама.. Папа?!
(M-Mom.. Dad?!)
Yeva: Кукла?! Моя драгоценная дочь... Что случилось... Тебя..?
(Doll?! My precious daughter.. What happened.. To you..? )
Yeva hugs Doll tightly
Doll: Я... Извини... Я пытался... Прости.. Что опаздывато... Я.. Я скучал по тебе...
(I am... Sorry... I tried.. I am sorry... I come late... I... I missed you...)
Doll starts crying
Yeva: Всё порядке, мы тоже по тебе скучали, по йдём сейчас..
(It's okay, we missed you too, let's go now...)
They grab and went towards the light
Doll: Мама, папа.. Я люблю тебя..
(Mom, dad.. I love you..)
Sad ending 2
Doll then suddenly starts coughing oil
V looked shocked, thinking how is she alive
Doll: Я... Что.. Случилось... Я... Почему... Почему ты.. Здесь.. УЙТИ-
(I... What happened... I... Why... Why are you... Here... GET OU-)
Doll started coughing more oil
Doll: Ух... Больно...
(Ugh... It hurts..)
V: Oh.. Oh. OH.. Eeasy there buddy... You're.. Alive..?
V tried to reach Doll
Doll: НЕТ! НЕ ПОДХОДТЕ СО МНОЙ! >:(
(NO! DON'T GET ANY NEAR ME!)
Doll tries to use the absolute solver, but the Solver tries to corrupt her core, which made her cough blood, and more oil. A warning sign appeared on her visor.
V: Easy there- *concern, shocked expression*
The Solver is slowly corrupting Doll's core. She is in pain, V tries to help Doll, but Doll pushed her away. Doll's core is now corrupted by the Solver... Yikes... Looks like the Solver had find it's new host.....
Happy ending
Doll suddenly hugs V
Doll: Все порядке... Это была не твоя вина... Теперь я понимаю что...
(It's okay... It wasn't your fault... I realize that now...)
V was shocked and happy at the same time
V: D-Doll..?! You're.. You're alive..?! I-I
V hugged Doll tightly and kind of cried. Doll hugs V back
Doll: Я.. Я прощаю тебя...
(I.. I forgive you...)
V: I... I love you...
Doll: Я тоже тебя люблю.....
(I love you too....)
They hugged each other tightly and started kissing <3 >:3
they make out later
Bad ending 1
V then suddenly get warning for overheating on her visor.
V: Huh... I... There must be something... Else here... To eat.. But your oil... It... It looks... So tasty... I can't... No...
V can't help herself. She started to chew on Doll's body 😔
V: I am so so sorry... I couldn't... But your oil... It's so tasty... I hope you could forgive me....
....
Bad ending 2
Doll suddenly wakes up. She got scared and felt threatened.
Doll: Какого черта ты в моем доме..!! Почему ты меня держишь...!!?
(Why the frick are you in my house..!! Why are you holding me!!?)
Then Doll suddenly gets the warning of overheating on her visor.
V: Oh hey buddy..! Don't worry..! I won't hurt you!!
Doll was using her solver to attack V, tho was hiding it, so V doesn't notice that.
V: I am sorry for what I did, but this time I want to help yo-
Then suddenly Doll used her solver to throw a knife at V, cutting V's arm. V accidentally drops Doll
V: Ow you red eyed doll freak!! You traitor! I shouldn't have trusted you!! Just because I felt guilt!! I should have left you the-.. Huh...?!
Doll disappeared

Uh- anyway- enjoy lol-

Silent Talk
A mini Murder Drones Khori (Khan x Nori) one-shot fan fiction.
TRIGGER/CRINGE WARNING: None!
— — —
It was a day like all of the others, and Khan wasn’t having any difference in his experience. He has times where he is completely content, but there are some days where Khan is just-- not… well. And unfortunately, today was one of those days.
He would sit and stay somewhere alone and go completely silent— sometimes staying quiet for multiple hours on end. Continuing to isolate himself from everything and everyone.
Khan has done his usual thing of separating himself from all distractions in the past, but unlucky for him, Nori saw this as an obvious sign of his current mental state.
The respective drone in question was sitting alone on the far end of the couch, with his arms folded firmly across his torso.
Nori had already met the same room where Khan was in, and sat on the opposite end of the couch from where he was sitting— not quite directly next to him, but making sure to give Khan some space.
Khan barely reacted, if not at all to Nori’s presence at first. He occasionally, using only his eyes, would glance towards Nori’s direction, before immediately putting his gaze back down on the ground.
Nori reached out and gently placed a hand on Khan’s arm.
The simple gesture seemed to work as Khan had fully turned his attention beside him.
Nori motioned something with her hands—
“You okay?”
was the rough translation.
Khan shook his head.
There was a short pause.
“I’m sorry.”
Khan signed back.
Nori’s eyes hollowed for a moment.
“Don’t apologize.”
She signed.
Another short moment of silence fell.
Nori’s expression softened.
“You want me to stay?”
She asked.
Khan blushed sheepishly.
“Please?”
Nori chuckled softly with a smile. She repositioned herself directly next to Khan.
Khan surprisingly didn’t resist the touch and scooted in closer. He leaned onto Nori’s side— practically collapsing into her.
Nori was nearly caught off guard and almost lost her balance before thankfully catching it back rather quickly.
Both sat there for a while in that position— Khan occasionally giving a gentle head-bump below Nori’s chin.
Now this is the type of affection that they can both get used to.
Fin~
A/N: Basically Khan this entire fic;
“I AM AT MY FU*KING LIMIT-“
(I am fr putting this man THROUGH IT- /lh /silly)
Anyway- H I. I wrote another Khori fic bc I am incapable of stopping. /lhj
Enjoy ig lol. /lh

Hanging By A Thread
A Murder Drones Khori (Khan x Nori) fan fiction one-shot.
TRIGGER/CRINGE WARNING: light angst, swearing
Khan finally gets home after a long day— a very, very… long day. His first and only priority was to go to his room. Right now, he doesn't have the energy to want to do anything else.
Khan practically instantly drops his smile as soon as he gets into the bedroom. He took a deep breath in, and released a sharp, drawn-out sigh while slumping against the door.
Khan crossed his arms tightly against his midriff. He stared at the ceiling of the small room with his head tilted slightly upwards.
As the empty air of the room became filled only with the sounds of silence, Khan started to go through his memory files to recollect the day. He had nothing else better to do right now, anyway. Why not waste his time some more?
When he was finished with his task, Khan yet again tried to find a distraction to help ignore... less important things.
Khan sighed sharply. He sluggishly stepped over to about towards the middle of the room and sat down defeatedly at the end of the bed.
Khan stayed still.....until he couldn’t. His head started to hurt.
“Fucking hell.. why now..?!” Khan thought.
And just as soon as he thought that things couldn’t get any worse--
{{ LOW BATTERY : YOU DIDN’T SLEEP, IDIOT }}
Khan grumbled. He moved the alert to the side. He ignores it. Like always.
“Ugggghhh…. You frickin’ idiot....” Khan held his face in his hands, noticeably slurring his speech.
First, random body aches, then it turns out that he’s running on low power. No wonder he feels like sh-
Knock, Knock.
The sudden noise made Khan feel like his core nearly jumped out of his chest.
Khan sighed. He stood up and lazily shuffled to the door.
It was revealed that Nori was patiently waiting on the other side. Khan immediately perked up when he saw that it was her.
“Oh-! Uh- Hey, Nori.” Khan said stiffly.
Nori had a calm smile on her face.
“Hey. You alright..?” She asked.
“U-Uh-!! G-Great!! Doing good!” Khan stammered while struggling to keep eye contact.
Nori raised an unamused eyebrow.
“YYYYeahhhhh.... I don't think you’re even sure about that, buddy.” She cracked a cheeky smirk.
Khan blushed. Partially flustered but mostly embarrassed.
If he truly wanted to fool Nori, Khan would have to think of something better than whatever the hell that was.
“You gonna let me in the room now orrrr…?” Nori teased.
“Oh! Uh, y-yeah, s-sorry.” Khan chuckled awkwardly.
Nori stepped past while the door behind her closed.
“Now.” Nori began. “You wanna tell me what’s up with you?”
Khan forced a smile.
“What do you mean? Nothing's up!”
Like always, Nori was not buying anything.
Khan dropped his façade. “Ugh.. f-fine… if you wanna know so badly, I’m not doing very well right now, okay?” He sounded defensive.
Nori tisked. “Mmm-hmm. Exactly what I’m talkin’ about.” She teased.
Khan scoffed.
“Nori, please… I’m not in the mood right now.. just leave me alone.”
Khan turned around with his arms crossed over his chest and walked a few steps away.
A short moment of silence followed.
Nori chuckled softly. She walked up to Khan and hugged him from behind.
“No need to go full-edge on me, big man. You know you don’t have to be ‘ the tough guy ’ around me.” She said.
Khan tried to take a breath in, but instead, it hitched. He put a hand over his mouth.
Well, shit. He did not mean to make that sound…
“And you said you were doing just fine, huh?” Nori said.
Khan blushed. Ashamed, but he paid no attention to Nori’s teasing.
“N-Nori, I-I c-can’t j-just—“
“It’s okay. I don’t mind.” Nori cut Khan off—knowing exactly what he was going to say without even finishing his sentence.
Khan felt the lump form in his throat. He finally gave in and released his tears— not even sobbing, just.. allowing them to flow.
Khan sighed.
“I-I’m sorry I just…I’ve been… really stressed out lately… cause I’m really busy and....”
His voice cracked.
“I’ve been.. feeling so tired… but.... sleep doesn’t feel like it’s helping.. a-anymore.... and.... I-I don’t know what to do....”
Nori lifted her head.
“It sounds like to me that you’re feeling a little burnt out.” She said, “You’ve been focusing on nothing but your work, why not focus on yourself for a little while? You deserve a break. Don't cha think?”
Khan sniffed. “I… I guess so, but… I can’t...”
Nori raised a brow. “Why not?” She asked.
“Cause I… I-I dunno.. I just… It’s important and.... there are people counting on me.. a-and I don’t even have the time for myself.” Khan replied.
“You’re thinking too hard, dummy.” Nori chuckled softly. She gave Khan one last gentle squeeze before pulling away.
“Some days are just harder than others… And that’s okay!” Nori added. She stepped in front of Khan.
“Hows’ about this?” Nori began.
“You take it easy for the rest of the day, and tomorrow you can take the day off.”
Khan flinched. “B-But I-!!”
“No buts!!” Nori interrupted. “Your well-being is more important! Got that..?” Her tone softened a bit on those last two words.
“Okay.” Khan sighed.
“Good.” Nori smiled. “Now would ya stop crying already??!”
Nori wiped underneath Khan’s eyes.
“Sorry, Sorry! I can’t help it sometimes.” Khan chuckled awkwardly.
Nori raised a playful brow and held a slight, cocky smirk on her face.

hey so, quick podfic/visual novel update; it’s still on the way! we’re still in the process of finding VAs. (Tessa, Uzi, N and a few extras)
Funding has come up a bit short so i’ll be opening up some spots in the discord server for volunteer positions for those who would just like to help out for the sake of helping out. we’re looking for assistance with sound design, music, voice work, background art/coding/sprites etc.
Those i have promised to pay still will receive compensation as it would be disingenuous to say otherwise, though if you’re interested in taking on a spot to ease up the workload, it would be a tremendous help. hopefully we’ll have the podfic itself out by sometime mid summer, and the visual novel sometime in the fall or winter if all things go well.
“It was embarrassing, resorting to such primal threat displays to get N to back away from her, but right now, she couldn’t care less. J felt cornered, trapped, like some kind of animal. A scared, pathetic, disgusting animal.”
