:: 47-42 Cyril, K. ::

This is Kit Cyril and that's his office. He is important. His birthday was on 15th Oct, but I am late... :<

47-42 Cyril by EarlyOnion.jpg

Cyril was known for being the exiled Silveryan who clawed his way up into becoming a wealthy, classy man in Sigma with a taste for nothing lesser than the best... though he does have a liking for toffees and soda. He became CEO of the leading pharmaceutical company, Neo-Pharma and sponsored major projects that the Megacorporation worked on, led by Prof. 'Sage Williams'. During the last years of his life, he helped Vic adjust himself to Sigma (and this kind of hospitality is extremely rare in Sigma).

Although reluctant, the Government of Sigma declares Kit Cyril as part of the realm's history, having contributed to the realm in significant ways. Without Cyril, Sigma would not have a portal machine, an inter-realm transit, and a Reprogram machine (which had helped optimise the human capital).

So... Cyril has existed for a very long time alongside all my other characters. He was featured in my story, 'The Journey Home'/TJH at the point he met Vic. TJH website where you can view the characters and read the chapters summary: https://the-journey-home.weebly.com/

:: OC Drawing Prompt 25 ::

A'ight, this might be my last one for now since I have been occupied with other things and haven't been drawing.

47-27 OC Prompt 5 by EarlyOnion.jpg

Prompt 25: Eating their friend's food without asking...
...because when a Vic has to eat, he will eat -- even if he doesn't like fish snacks. Hmm, Tsumura gonna be upset when he comes in.

Finally, a main character returns to the scene. This is Vic the glutton who does not gain weight cuz he a dead boi. Back when he worked at the Megacorp, he'd raid the office pantry. Nowadays it's a bit hard since he can't pull off that stunt easily in the barracks, though. Not yet.

:: OC Drawing Prompt 4 ::

Prompt 4: Chilling on a field.
Cool boss Aaron here is chilling not on a field but in his field -- in this case, managerial field, haha. Once he steps into his office, no one can stop his e-mails. Once he steps out for meetings, no one can stop him from talking his way into things. That's just Aaron chilling out, (happily) swimming in corporate culture and procedures.

But these days... well, being thrown into a construction sector up north makes him add another thing to his work: yelling around, but they say that's no problem for ESTJ types. x'D

:: 47-18 [FA] Onyx Byronix ::

My obscure OC, Byronix in the fahbulous Onyx uniform designed by uniform mastah, @/PeachyProtist on deviantART.
You can see the design [here].

47-18 [FA] Onyx Byronix by EarlyOnion.jpg

Of course, my art does not do this runway-worthy uniform any justice. I just thought it'd be funny to have Byronix in the Onyx. After all, his anthro name is 'Black Onyx'. xD Vic calls him Bunnix, but that's fine because Onyx Bunnix still rhymes nicely.

I rarely draw Byronix (or anthros even), so his appearance vary from drawing to drawing.

My OCs: Tsumura, Aaron, and Vic. What're they up to...??

47-03 [TJH] Separated Trio by EarlyOnion.jpg

They've all gone their separate ways, though not too far in a sense that they're all still employed by Sigma Government. My hope is for them to team up unofficially doing non-government things like this. Maybe some sort of side gig...

:: 47-02 [TJH] Side Gigs ::

Just a random short comic (but canon) which I have the miraculous chance to draw out. Features Vic the newbie techie, Aaron the manager, and Tsumura the hacker.

47-02 [TJH] Side Gigs by EarlyOnion.jpg

Vic asks Tsumura for answers because Tsumura can hack into the government's database on all Sigma inhabitants and once peeked at Aaron's records. Asking Tsumura was also how Vic knew who and what he is.

Does anyone have a guess on what Aaron's main gig might be? o_O
(even I don't know it!)

Well, after a crazy wintery time up in Northern District, Vic finally gets a break.

47-01 [TJH] Wheel-Change by EarlyOnion.jpg

First thing he's gonna do is head home to his little apartment in Capital District and change the wheels of his skateboard. Winter wheels, out; normal wheels in.

He's going to skate all day long at his favourite spot. Just him and his board.

:: 46-060 [SG] Happy Holidays ::

Happy holidays, everybody. 🎄 May y'all be able to spend it with people who are precious to you.

46-060 [SG] Happy Holidays by EarlyOnion.jpg
Complementing BGM: [Jeremy Soule – "Snow Covered Landscape"] (Dungeon Siege II OST, 2005)

I wanted to draw something for the winter as I usually would, but I had no idea of what and who to draw. My pal, @/TheSalguod on dA gave me an idea, so here it is. I forgot to add Vic's dark circles under his eyesssss aaaaaaaaa (will edit the dA version only later on)

While everyone gets cosy and comfy in their homes or being with close friends and families, our lone ranger Vic travels from the Northern District back to the Capital District during this time off. He's got no friends up north or whatever anyway (and Aaron doesn't count as one). Once in the Capital, he gets a call from Tsumura to hang out; maybe grab a drink at Crimson Angel Restaurant. Vic was about to decline because he'd prefer to be on his own, but then he realised it's the holidays, man. And so here they are, having hot chocolate and taking a break from life.

Vic thinks to himself that maybe he does have a friend, after all. And sure, it snows almost every day in Sigma, but sometimes even the most mundane of things feel better when enjoyed with good company.

:: 46-046 [SG] Who Dis ::

What's up, people! Been a while eh...
Here be my OC, the I.T. guy Tsumura, taking a break from work. From this outdoor area, he could see typical Sigma weather: grey skies.

46-046 [SG] Who Dis by Early Onion.jpg

He was contemplating on renewing a PC game subscription when he suddenly gets a call from a super ancient number that he could've sworn was no longer in use. He doesn't have this contact saved in his phone, but he remembers this number. It belongs to someone whom, like the number, was long gone.

Is it who he thinks it is? Is it possible??
Tsumura nervously answers the call...

Misc. Notes:
Hello hello, everyone! I can't believe my sketches were left forgotten thanks to family chaos. Maybe that's why my brain refuses to think of drawdraw ideas. x'D I ended up completing this one quickly because I got overexcited to finally be drawing again! xD

:: 46-049 [SG] Still Stuck ::

This be my OC, Tsumura and his new work attire. It's not a shirt, but it's not his usual style either since he still has to dress decently as a government employee. As long as he wears government colours, they shouldn't pick on him too much...

46-049 [SG] Still Stuck by Early Onion.jpg

Tsumura is stuck as a government employee with no way out. Technically, there is a way out, but staying in is always easier. This is what you get for being a gang member and messing with the government. While Vic gets transferred to the north, Tsumura will always be in the capital. Alone. Just the way they want him.

At least, they let him wear his goggles and remain staying at the government quarters.

:: 46-046 [RO] Typical Day ::

Wasn't sure if I wanted to share this here as well, but...

My RO characters (from left): Thomas the Archbishop (priest), Kei the Sniper (archer), and Mef the Shadow Chaser (rogue). The archer and rogue are fan-fic only characters. I don't have them in-game. Background is game screenshot of Prontera. Might be too blurry to see its fountain and the church at the back.

46-046 [RO] Typical Day by Early Onion.jpg

Here Thomas gives his best friend, Kei a typical day's greeting. He likes to tease Kei, but Kei doesn't mind. Together, they would train, but would later part ways when Kei goes off to do his side gig of a delivery man. Meanwhile, Mef was enjoying a candy cane that morning. He sees them and recognises the priest whom he still wants to know the name of (but can't ask directly, to avoid suspicions).

Drawn based on my Ragnarök Online fan fiction which I wrote for the sake of stress-relief and boredom. The story is about how a newbie agent (Mef) of a rogue guild gets caught up in a high-ranking case surrounding a priest (Thomas). All he wanted to know was the priest's name and while he did get to know it, the case turns serious and he gets dragged into it with seemingly no chance of escape.

P/S: Thomas is called a pervert by Kei because he once told Kei (among other things) that he wanted Rothert (a badass AB)'s boots on his face. Thomas: ≖‿≖ o̶r̶ ̶u̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶s̶l̶a̶m̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶i̶n̶t̶o̶ ̶w̶a̶l̶l

Thomas is a nice guy, whatever it is.

:: 46-045 [SG] Can't Go Wrong ::

My OC, Vic enjoying his current task as a newbie army technician.

46-045 [SG] Can't Go Wrong by Early Onion.jpg

He met with a skilled mechanic from a workshop along the streets of the Northern District. The mechanic (a Nocturnal named Sergi) told him, "The best thing about working with machines is that you just follow the blueprint and everything will work the way it's supposed to. You can't go wrong. Everything connects to something."

Vic found himself agreeing to this. Good thing he could memorise blueprints without even trying. He should be able to fix things on the fly. As he continued working, he thought, 'Maybe those damn old men made a good decision after all, sending me here...'

Notes:
I didn't make him this way just because he's an ISTP. Dude's been this way even before I knew about MBTI; and even so, I totally did not expect Vic to be an army technician. Gawrsh... M'boi is all grown up now, fixing big toys. :') Also, I just drew this for fun and did not really research technical stuff. I do welcome comments of it, hehe (if I'm wrong or whatever).

:: 46-031 [TJH] SU Maddox ::

The grumpy army medic Maddox has come to a decision to accept the offer to join the Special Unit/SU.
(Maddox: "There goes my access to a legal... substance... lab." -_-)

46-031 [TJH] SU Maddox by Early Onion.jpg

Maddox has always loved his realm/country, so it was rather expected that he'd join the SU and enforce the Special Laws of the realm that basically keeps local gang activities in check and limiting outside influence (for now, there is only Nexus).

The latter is Maddox's focus. He wants to make sure that Sigma remains as Sigma. He wasn't bothered about local gangs, but he is very sensitive when Nexus lifestyle tries to seep into Sigma. He believes that Sigma and Nexus are two different cultures and lifestyle, so it was unnatural for one to behave like the other. This is also why he gave his 110% during the Remigration Project.

Now that all the Nexus Immigrants have gone home, only a handful of Sigma-born ones are left. Although most of them have been assimilated, Maddox wants to make sure they remain monitored and kept in line.

He will miss being a medic. He won't be wearing this outfit all the time though, since SUs usually do undercover work. So, he might be wearing a medic get-up once again some day...

:: 46-030 [TJH] The Nexus Trio ::

My OCs (from left): Matsuri, Jayden Lazarus, Officer Annie.
It's been months since my story, The Journey Home/TJH ended.

46-030 [TJH] The Nexus Trio by Early Onion.jpg

It makes me wonder what has become of the Nexus Immigrants who could finally return home. I have a few possible scenarios of what has happened after, but it's all just ideas for fun. I don't think I am continuing the story (you can read the summary at its website btw, link in my profile).

For the Nexus folks, I imagine Jayden to be unofficially elected as village leader, lol. Officer Annie would be in charge of security along with Matsuri. Jayden's hair should have grown longer since they first came, so I made Officer Annie braid it while he wonders how to improve their little settlement. Although this is like a 'girly scene' getting hair braided, braids were actually a symbol of status in Nexus...and Jayden's going to make sure it remains as such.

And yes, generic landscape as background, lol. If you see ocean, it's Vista. If like this where you see some sort of ruin, it's Silverya. Yet to draw a scene in other regions like the thick jungle hills and the desert.

:: 46-028 [TJH] Artfol Challenge ::

Hello, everyone! Yes, this is the Artfol Challenge that managed to convince my hand to finally draw something after 2 months of artist block. [ Artfol link]

It features Vic, with Tsumura at the back there with a non-ergonomic workstation. As for the person standing by Vic's legs, I hope you guys can guess who it is, haha~

46-028 [TJH] Artfol Challenge by Early Onion.jpg

Remove yourself, Vic; you're in the way.
Huh, Vic's not budging. He wants to lie down on the couch, no matter what.
Someone stops right next to his jutting-out legs, saying, "Your salary for the month is reducing with every passing second you block my path, at a rate of n-minus-1 per second."
Vic doesn't react. He's going to show he's not scared of trivial pay cut threats. He wants to lie down on the couch, no matter what.
Seconds later, Vic opens his eyes and realises no one is there anymore, except Tsumura at the back.
His phone beeps a moment after. He flips it open and sees a text message that reads, "I will discipline you after this."
He closes his phone and continues lying down. 'You don't scare me, Suit,' he thinks.

:: 46-016 Tsumura's Room ::

So, decided to give you a glimpse of Tsumura's room back in his 'natural habitat'.
Don't take the room's width and interior too seriously.
The idea of this is too ambitious for me. T_T

46-016 Tsumura's Room by EarlyOnion.jpg

Basically...

His place is usually dimly-lit, most of the light coming from his monitors and the few interior lighting he has. As a Nocturnal, he can see in the dark, but his eyes are sensitive to strong lights. That is why he doesn't have much lighting and that he has goggles with him. When he is on the computer for intense stuff, he'll put 'em on.

Tsumura's habitat must-haves: at least two desktop computers, one laptop, three servers, cyan neon lights, a box fort to sleep in. Anything else can come in later, haha.

:: 46-015 Don't Worry For Now ::

Vic is concerned.

He hasn't seen his boss, Aaron a lot lately and there has been no talk of work from that ESTJ -- and that is highly suspicious. Worse, their team is down to four people now: him, Aaron, Tsumura, and a yet-to-report-in physician. :') The rest have been transferred elsewhere. (Vic wouldn't admit it, but having Maddox and Silas on the team would be great.)

46-015 Don't Worry For Now by EarlyOnion.jpg

Vic can see things are looking bleak.

Tsumura, although surprised at Vic's concern about a Suit and about work, tries to comfort him by saying it's alright, that Aaron's probably attending meetings and discussion on what their next expedition will be. "Aaron is the best boss," he says. "We can count on him."

Vic is not convinced.

Misc.:
My OCs, Tsumura the I.T. guy and Vic the inter-dimensional traveller. They're hanging out at Tsumura's place. His room is usually darker than this, but he knows Vic gets annoyed with dark environment, so he switched on an extra light. I wanted to do up the bg to show Tsumura's room, but I realised that Tsumura now lives in a unit within the government quarters, so this scene pales in comparison with his natural habitat. :') Lotsa restrictions on computer stuff; Government's keepin a close eye on this ex-convict.
And uhm... tbh, I'm not to happy with this piece. :/ And I think I will go back to my usual brushes.

:: 46-014 [ROxTJH] Thomas and Vic ::

"Where did you say you were from again...?" Thomas asks Vic.

What if Vic stepped through a rogue portal (a sudden portal with random destinations) and ended up in Midgard (that of Ragnarök Online)? o_O And for the heck of it, he meets my RO priest, Thomas Benedicta! xD I bet you he'd be in the midst of making holy water.

46-014 [ROxTJH] Thomas and Vic by EarlyOnion.jpg

Thomas wouldn't be too weirded out at first because Vic's outfit is like that of a Mechanic’s (alternate version), or if he has a gun with him, he’s a Gunslinger. In terms of tech, Midgard’s like the Nexus in its glory days, so it should not be too hard for Vic to adapt. Besides, portals are such a norm there.

Still, some things will definitely be weird for Vic, like a priest having a pet ghost. Whispersio waves hi at Vic, but if it punches Vic, that's true friendship!

Misc:
I'm trying out a new brush set, 'Chalks for Children'. It's quite fun. I also avoided using ruler/line tool for the window for more squiggly-ness, haha.
And if anyone wants to see, these are my RO characters: [link]

:: 46-011 Surrounded by Nocs in All Walks of Life ::

It just occurred to me that no matter which life he was leading, Vic always had a Nocturnal by his side. Vic doesn't really have the Noc vibe, so he couldn't have been drawn to them. Were they drawn to him then?

46-011 Surrounded by Nocs by EarlyOnion.jpg

When he was in LA, his best friend Matthew was a Nocturnal (not that any of them knew this at the time).
When in old Nexus as Sorcerer Vic (or 'Freaky Vic' as he calls it), he had Matsuri watching over him.
Now, when he's in Sigma, he's got Tsumura with him.

Makes me wonder if there was any of my OCs who always had an Aquila or a Místic with them.
