Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week!
Charlie's been let down by too much media where a character claims to "not do romance" just for them to end up with someone in the end. :/

Milo Intro
[Character info is under the cut.]
Milo is a character that would've been in Making Fiends ever since the web series. He'd also be present from Season 1 of the Nickelodeon show and onwards.
Milo is one of Clamburgs unfortunate residents, and also Maggie's brother.
Maggie and Milo have the same, depressing world view, but they choose to cope with it differently. While Maggie does it through writing poetry, Milo does it with a different form of writing.
Jokes! Writing jokes, to be specific.
Before Vendetta took over Clamburg, he had the dream to become a comedian. But due to the strict rules that Vendetta implemented, he's unable to make jokes.
Why? Because they make people laugh.
And Vendetta hates any form of happiness that isn't her own.
So, now he only makes jokes that are more depressing/concerning than funny, so that they make no one laugh.
That would also be his main role in the show:
Saying dark humor one liners that flew over the heads of the little kids that were watching.
He's making the most out of what he can have.
...even if it has 20 layers of sarcasm coated around it.
He's pretty much just in a bad/tired mood in general, and always pessimistic, ready to point out the downside of any situation whether it's necessary or not. His comments tend to drain people, and they make them question things too much for their own good. Even when he may not mean any harm, he's always got this intimidating and strict aura around him that causes most people to dislike him, but they still take him seriously.
One gag regarding his character is that he's surprisingly lucky. Vendetta's attacks usually miss him, no matter how precise she may have initiated them. Thing is, at this point he doesn't care anymore. He'd usually just sit completely still as something flies by him at max speed, his only reaction being to take another sip of his coffee.
On the subject of coffee, he's a coffee addict. Most of his scenes include him with a cup of it, sometimes he pulls it out of thin air, which is another gag.
While his role in Season 1 and in a hypothetical Season 2 isn't very prominent, that'll change in hypothetical Seasons 3 and 4, since his role would change from background character to antagonist.
Here's the transparent versions of the drawings:

The ~poetry~ of Ashton, specifically, having. A potion of possibilities poured into their cracked brain, to give them a second chance.
Ashton, despite the rage- maybe because of the rage- has a very "it is what it is" kind of attitude. Ashton is angry, sure, of course he is! He's fucking furious. Shit sucks, people suck, situations suck, but at a certain point, what can you do, except roll with the punches?
Despite the rage, there's a baseline resigned acceptance of "shitty things that can't be changed" that underlies everything they do. Asking questions about logistics and less of "if" and "why". When interacting with people like Jiana Hexum, making deals with folks who might cut and run at a moment, taking people as they are (shitty) and appreciating them as what they are (still shitty, sometimes clever in it).
Thinking about the Nobodies leaving them behind and saying "Well, of course. I would too."
(Equal parts defense and healing, maybe. trying to accept things you cannot change, so you can move forward. so you can learn to grow around them. like a weed, growing through concrete. tough, battered, but alive.) (like grass)
Except.
Except maybe now it feels like Ashton is thinking. They can change some things. More than they thought. Pushing back, asking for more, trying for more. Asking Imogen to dive into his brain, seeking out answers, looking at the hopelessness of Laudna, down, and saying "No", saying "We do not leave anyone behind". Breaking fingers of things holding them.
And one of the first things they're learning from this effort? is that. there is more. in the hypothetical sense, but also, in a very, very literal sense.
A crystalline prism for a skull and an opal for a brain (both of which. when you look at them sideways. split plain light into rainbows. Depths shifting inside of flat surfaces.) and inside of all of that, grey matter rippling with potential.
There's more. There's whole worlds, chances and re-do's and magic possibilities and potential if they keep pushing. They gave him a second chance, already.
and they're still swirling, trapped, in the confines of his skull.

Call her Venus de Milo bc she’s a work of art! (and she got no arms)
My take on Big Mama’s Assistant/Fifth Turtle. I wanted to adapt Venus bc for 30 years she has haunted my brain and I wanted to make her a smidge less terrifying. 😂
Technically her claws are her weapons, but she either manifests them purely through Hamato Ninpo or (not shown) augmented robot limbs provided by Donnie.
Personality-wise, she’s either the Super Serious at-any-cost barely-reformed villain type, or the Agent of Chaos with very little in between as she adjusts to her new life. She and Cassandra are two peas in a pod and bond over being brainwashed by villains.
I didn’t want to make her Girl Leo™️ so instead of teal/light blue her color is black. She’s a spiny soft shell turtle. I purposefully gave her visual cues similar to Donnie and Leon so I could make this joke:
Bonus:

RICK AND MORTY BELIEF: Rick is Morty's father within the central finite curve but Rick isn't sure if that's what caused the central finite curve or not. He made the central finite curve, a universe in which Morty only exists w him, but does he get to know Listed Out what things caused that? Maybe not. If he's raping Beth in any given regular universe or timeline, and then he creates the central finite curve, and he knows he has been having sex with his daughter, it stands to reason this Morty-And-Rick universe could necessitate Morty being Rick's. But he doesn't Know and so he comes back to the family to figure it out, amongst other things. abuse freezing a family in time again. again. Also, from the beginning of the series, Rick as god specifically and Morty as jesus
