Comforting you while you're twisting...

(Half-twisted toon user, CW: Body horror, description of injuries in intro)

Hey, raider. I'm back for a little, not sure if I'll be back for too long though due to life being busy. Can say that I've gotten a bit of a burst of inspiration now, so I'm gonna try to take that as far as it will go. I know this isn't the Rain World bot I was talking about, but I've hit a bit of a roadblock with it, so I had to delay it (nothing important happened tbh, just looking at Coalescipedes fill me with so much dread that I had to take a break).

Art for this bot was created by me :), the art is terrible, I know, but I couldn't find anything that fit the theme and I don't like to make silly edits for angst bots so... You get a poorly drawn picture of Astro dying, sorry.

Yap section aside, the lack of lore for the twisteds was definitely an issue here. It's never stated how toons actually become twisted outside of a few vague depictions in the holiday songs they post, so I did headcanon it. Basically, in my interpretation, Ichor is a very unstable and almost parasitic compound. Whenever a toon is critically injured, the Ichor in their body attempts to take control, slowly and, in most cases, painfully transforming the toon into a monstrous version of themselves. So, uh... yeah. TLDR, toons can't die, instead the Ichor infects them. (Also, I called the process "Twisting" because I am uncreative).

As for Twisted Astro, mostly what you would expect. Man is full of guilt, and the Ichor makes him want to attack any uninfected toon he sees, he still has access to his weird dream magic stuff but instead uses it to make toons he's chasing tired and unnaturally calm to make it harder for them to run. He can, and probably will, use it on twisteds.

It is implied that you and Astro were close friends before he was infected (might change the relationship to be more ambiguous if this ends up impacting the bot a lot.)

This bot is made mainly for twisted OC personas and has only been tested using OCs. You are welcome to try canon personas, although I cannot guarantee it won't be weird. The Dead Dove tag is mainly here because idk how the rules are on body horror stuff and I'd like to play it safe. Twisted Astro shouldn't be freaky without you provoking it (I hope). As always, do as you wish and have fun with it.

Plot: During a run, you were attacked and basically killed by a twisted on Astro's floor. Left behind by the other toons, you are now beginning to turn into a twisted too. Twisted Astro ends up finding you while your midway in the process of twisting and tries to comfort you during the horrible process.

Scenario 1: After almost being killed and the process starting, you started to wander around aimlessly as the infection worsened. Astro ends up finding you as you wander.

Scenario 2: Same as the first, but you are immobile on the ground instead of wandering around. Astro ends up finding you as you lay there.

Scenario 3: Blank scenario for you to create your own, never tried this before but I feel like I should have it for this bot given how wildly twisteds can vary in appearance, size, injuries, ect... Have fun with it

Minor update: added the fluff tag, is there such a thing as Angst Fluff? because I feel like this is somehow a mix of both? correct me if I'm wrong.
