not a question but as a hairy butch lesbian with huge eyebrows ur art of bedrock has genuinely improved my self image by like five thousand
how many do you think bedrock could take at once. hypothetically
🪱 - HEY NO WORRIES, TRUST ME. I asked bc I have an OC I think could make a cool storyline with her, not even romantically, but as a fellow artist and writer I'm out here respecting boundaries. 🫡 I'm autistic tho so please tell me if I'm ever too much LOL my ass cannot tell!!!
Anyway speaking of Bedrock...
Does she participate in anything outside of SR? I know her joy and optimism: gone.png but she'd be damn good at inksports I'm sure.
But it doesn't have to be inksports only! She could enjoy... regular sports, or hiking or some kind of hobby! Girl who works night shifts at a museum (the skeletons and fossils 😉 do get a lil quirky at night).
Thank you again for answering this silly wyrm.
SORRY I KEEP FORGETTING I HAVE RETROSPRING ummm hmm hmm... honestlyyyyy... i know that motorcross kinda perks her ears a bit. she Was starting to get into it before fossil died, but when tragedy struck she decided to focus fully on salmon run. she still has her old bike somewhere i bet!
Does bedrock ever find herself recalling previous shift coworkers in a positive light ... I know she's not a tooootal meaniehead but itd be sweet to know UUUUGH I want to know how she was before The Fossil Incident so bad..
rattles all t he scenarios in my brain how often does bedrock get eaten out/does hshe like it much...............she seems the type to prefer doing over receiving but
Omg hi again hiii!! Great to see you back. I think an engraved coho scale necklace would be really cool! You could even do a fossil (wink) design for the engraving.
Here's more of a purrsonal question: do you RP? Your OCs are so (shakes them violently). - 🪱
My mobile refreshed and DELETED MY ENTIRE MESSAGE GRAHHHH!
That's okay. We're taking it from the top.
First: The beetle (🪲) doesnt seem to show up on mobile, so ill transform into a wyrm. (🪱)
Second: LOVE TOXIC YURI. Was Bedrock able to slay the cohozuna, or at least wound it and claim a trophy (ex: scales, fang, a whole fin)?
Further, was Bedrock ever considered for an Elite position? If I'm understanding correctly she's had skill before Grizzco. You could add another parallel here if, say, Bedrock was a Sargent at one point. She could've had that innate desire to teach, guide and watch others grow, which carried into coaching at Grizzco (albeit tainted by tragedy). - 🪱
OK HI WORMY!!! also honestly that's a cool thought i havent thought about that.... hmmm hmmmm... maybe the coho drops a scale and she picks it up and keeps it.... might have to give her an optional necklace then that'd be cool.
also... i dont think so!! her and fossil werent really ambitious in the army, so they wouldnt have aimed to become elites... HOWEVER you are right that bedrock Does have an innate desire to teach and lead... so if she gave a fuck about the octarian army she totes would have... she's driven to coach people at grizzco to try and avoid tragedies like fossil's death
And FOSSIL, don't think I forgot about that nugget of information after my tangent.
Leans in and kicks my feet
Ooohhh you wanna tell me about Fossil soooo bad. Assuming from naming conventions, are they siblings? Did they escape the domes together? Is there a dramatic parallel to how they died at Sockeye Station to an earlier life event, cementing the trauma further? - 🪲
HAHA IM SO GLAD UR INTERESTED. as for naming conventions i named her fossil because.... underground... lol. NOPE theyre not siblings! they (were) best friends... but also kinda in a relationship? think about an unhealthily codependent homoerotic lesbian relationship.. yeah... that was them...
yes they escaped the underground together! bedrock actually killed one of their own during their escape attempt when they almost recaptured Fossil, though she never told fossil (too much was going on for her to realise) to keep her concience clear.... honestly this event can parallel to how bedrock failed to save fossil when she was bit down on by a rabid cohozuna and dragged down into the ocean. bedrock had always been prepared to sacrifice all lives for fossil, but ultimately still couldn't save her
I love danger, GIVE ME THE GIRL ANGST. Bedrock helping newbies could be so sweet... she should get attached to one for the hurt/comfort potential (less romantic, more maternal feelings manifesting. Could be fun to explore her desperation to suppress these feelings/dread from previous trauma, but now there's another person involed who cares. It's easy to coast through trauma on your lonesome, but having a curious, concerned foil could be fun!! Sorry I'm insane i love OCs).
Maybe she could get payed to coach baby teams, too: accompany them as a 5th, or have an individual shadow her in higher hazard levels. See above. - 🪲
ur so right... honestly if it didnt take me so much brainpower to come up with ocs then maybe i Would make a little crewmember like this... but at the same time, after the thing with Fossil it's hard to get attatched to people, and she kinda actively avoids it, save a few cephies.... who knows! maybe in the future i Will refine this idea.
also, she doesn't get payed to coach others like that, she does it to help them avoid disastrous scenarios... again, due to Fossil's death
What's Bedrock's least favorite SR stage? I guess in this case, location of deployment lol. Any reasons why? Perhaps an injury or loss of a teammate.
And speaking of teammates, if shes a freelancer, is she patient enough to handle bad teammates? Personally i want to choke people who party with their specials after w3 -🪲
oho... ohohoho.... you bringing up loss of a teammate is sooooooo dangerous of you. in that case, she'd hate Sockeye Station. that stage is associated with Fossil's death as well as the traumatic start of the first big run (im writing a little snippet about her reaction, since she was out on a shift when it first started)
also, she tends to stick with teams she knows 60% of the time, but often goes freelancing in order to help others find their footing. she actually demotes herself so she can help part-timers and all that.
if someone's bad but genuinely trying their best, maybe she'd be annoyed but willing to help them. but if someone's goofing off like how you mentioned she absolutely WILL unleash all hell of reprimands upon them
I love Bedrock sm. I love octogirlies with military trauma I LOVE WOMEN!!!!
Sits here and kicks my feet. I'll ask one at a time!
First up: Did Bedrock feel any guilt getting involved with Grizzco, given the Octarian-Salmonid trade agreement? I think I HC it as more culturally impactful than most, BUT it's still interesting to think about. - 🪲 anon
