TROLL!COPS: The AU

[jellinScyphozoa]

Jeeeeeeeeeeeegus you guys.
I go back and read through this thread to find the best things I have ever laid my young, fandom-induced eyes on. This is simply wondrous, I must tell you all.

And all of the art I come across, simply the best. And that detective Eridan by miss Markat -cC- is simply the best Eridan there is.
Maybe I'll try to sketch something up today. I said I would but that ended up horrible so I'll try to make something actually pleasant to look at today.

Thank you all for this idea, it is the best AU I've ever come across.

[inexpediency]

One question, though: Were those burgers from Burger King, or Sonic? This is an important question and it needs to be answered right now.

They're from Burger Sonic, a mysterious establishment existing only in the TrollCops universe.

e: Also Deeum if you want a title for mine I guess "Obstacles" would work

[jellinScyphozoa]

Alright so I had this idea.

As there is a Homestuck RP group on deviantART, there could also be one for this AU. While I'm aware this thing is still under planning, I think a role play group would be wonderful for it. I am one of the mods for the Homestuck RP group and we'd be happy to affiliate and such. As share rules/applications/what not.

This of course though should be approved by Deeum before it goes into deep speculation since it was their idea.

[Deeum]

Trying to think of how to respond to this.

I guess if you guys want to do a DA RP thing, that's fine. I'm not a big fan of it(I've had my run in with DA RPers spamming the crap out of some of my older deviations several years ago) but do not let that stop you guys from having fun with this!

I just want everyone to enjoy themselves.

[jellinScyphozoa]

Ah, thank you.
I am going to make the group then, I really do appreciate your approval!

Hopefully when I have it up and running with the rules and application guidelines I'll post the link to it and we can start having the characters applied for!
Again thank you, I'm hoping this will turn out well~

[Katrika]

I-I'd love to be Nepeta, but I don't have a deviant art.

...

shit.

[jellinScyphozoa]

Well, as I'm sure that a few of the forum members do not have a deviantART, I'll accept applications through the forum. So if any of you would like to send an application ahead of time, here is the link to the template that the canon group uses that will be shared by this one: http://homestuckrpda.deviantart.com/blog/35041100/

So yes, if you don't have a dA that's fine! You can still send an application to me. I am also going to be making an application template for mods because I do need a few.

[Katrika]

If we don't have a DA account, how will we RP?

...AIM? That's mostly what my rp circle does.

[jellinScyphozoa]

Well if you are accepted, you can make the account or I'll have some one else do it. All the characters will have individual accounts on dA from which they post IC journals and art and whatnot.

Account names would be named along the lines of things like- Detectivve-Eridan, Kittyburglar-Nepeta, Bandit-Karkat and so on.

[Katrika]

Hmmmm...

Well, sadly, I probably shouldn't add another rp to the ones I'm already in.

[jellinScyphozoa]

Well that's fine if it's your decision!
Please feel free to apply if you wish to, though.

[technospaceAvarice]

I assume you'd be making your first dA as a roleplay account, or just creating a main AND an RP account on the same e-mail address. It sounds like a lot of work but it really isn't.

Everyone go after Eridan. Be sure to get him before [jS] :I

[cyclicCircumferentia]

Ah, thank you.

Oh gosh, oh gosh
brb, applying at light speed.
Man, I am so -EXCIT---ED

[Katrika]

Oh, heck, I'll apply.

[lakobie]

Hey deeum can I make a request? Could you maybe put my character interactions under the fan fiction section on the front page? you can just lable them by who's in what convo

Im working on a few more, maybe I'll get them up sometime later today

[Captain Lhurgoyf]

I can't say I'm interested in roleplaying this, I'm afraid, but this is still an awesome concept.

I remember a while back they were talking about Gamzee having a bunch of clown-themed gadgets. Maybe he could be the like the Joker, only simultaneously too nice and too stoned to do anything effective:

hEy WaNt To SeE a MoThErFuCkInG mIrAcLe
Im GoNnA mAkE tHiS hOrN dIsApPeAr
uHh WaIt
WhErE iS iT
uHh
HeY cOmE bAcK

Also, the discussion of the consorts living underground in the sewers totally reminded me of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I don't know about you, but that sounds like something we could work in.

And it's too bad that no one in Homestuck wields an axe...

this idea made my day

uggh I'm so sloooowwww 6 new pages since last night?!?

@lakobie oh man everything you write is like INSTANT HEADCANON for me

Aaaaa what is wrong with my inspiration?

Why won't it SHUT UP today?

Apartment

“x33 < this is so great, karkitty! it sure was nice for mr. pupa to give us someplace to live!”

Karkat swept his eyes slowly across the sparsely furnished apartment, unwilling to answer right away.

“:33 < karkitty? you listening?”

Karkat watched Gamzee rummage through the refrigerator, exclaiming about ‘MiRaClEs’ as he did so. Sweeps on the streets hadn’t been kind to his mental state, but what he lacked in attention span and perception he made up for in heart.

“:<< < karkitty? what’s wrong? don’t you like this apartment? if you don’t like it we can leave, we can go to the shelter, if you don’t like mr. pupa we can-“

“NO! N-no. This is good. We’ll work for Mr. Pupa, okay? You do everything he tells you to.”

“x33 < okay! i’m going to make sure the respiteblocks are purrfect!”

Giving him a quick hug, the small troll ran off down the hall, giggling. Karkat hadn’t seen her this happy and carefree in…

He couldn’t even remember the last time she smiled like that. He knew she’d stop smiling the instant she found out how ruthless Pupa was, and he vowed she’d never find out.

Not ever.

He could still look after her and Gamzee. He could keep them warm and happy, with full bellies and a roof over their head. Never again would they have to pretend not to be hungry after a long day when he’d failed to find food for them. Never again would they hide in a dumpster, scared, as the police patrolled for the culprits of some clothing or food store robbery. Never again would they declare a half eaten, day old burger ‘good eating.’

He could shoulder all the worry and blame and guilt. They could keep smiling.

He promised.

I drew the superheroes... which I would have posted yesterday if my internet wasn't down due to a snowstorm!

[jellinScyphozoa]

Oh my gog Crowboy.

Also, for those who are interested, here is the page for the dA group: http://trollcopsau-rpda.deviantart.com/

[Katrika]

Eeeee I love that Crowboy.

...also I think my muse DIED or something. I keep trying to write and it keeps not working! Arg!

[DJ-P0N3]

Carbon, I love all of that.
Would it be alright if I used Crowboy as my avatar?

[lakobie]

AHHHHHHH I LOVE THE OUTFIT DAT SCARF IS EVEN BETTER THAN SOMETHING I COULD COME UP WITH.

Though, i think in my own head canon his crow bro outfit is black rather than orange cause orange.... kinda sticks out XD
Gotta love that seppucrow symbol tho

I love John's though. my original thought was the big stupid E replaced the windy symbol, but you having john just DRAW it over the windy symbol is like a bazillion times better

[Deeum]

Hey deeum can I make a request? Could you maybe put my character interactions under the fan fiction section on the front page? you can just lable them by who's in what convo

Im working on a few more, maybe I'll get them up sometime later today

Sure. Could you gather the links for them all for me? A little busy at the moment otherwise I'd do it myself.

Edit: Carbon, holy craaap.
Loving those!

I'll link the DARP thing in the OP a little later when I'm not as busified.

[carbon-14]

@MayorSillyBiscuits - sure, go right ahead!
@lakobie - I guess orange is an unfitting color if you're trying to sneak around... he doesn't really look like davesprite without it though xD
