More Backrooms Falls!

Meet Ford’s exploration crew at the MEG! A group of three brilliant doctors whom he admires and the teeth stealing chaos gremlin that follows them around. They’re all perfectly normal and sane people! Nothing dubious or untrustworthy about them! They definitely don’t mutter cultish prayers under their breath or make blood sacrifices in the middle of the night!

I may have perhaps put too much effort into this, but also I wanted an excuse to draw more human Henchmaniac designs.

Anyway, shapes and stuff.

#Hayley Speaks #My Art #Gravity Falls #Dipper Pines #Mabel Pines #Kryptos #Hectorgon #Amorphous Shape #<--Their design is my favorite tbh #Also if you're wondering how they're human now...don't worry about it #Also also I didn't go back and draw that cosmic sand; that's just snagged from a screencap #Rest of the background was hand-drawn though #If this has any mistakes; no it doesn't #I've gotta leave for work soon

i wish to know about how you characterize amorphous shape. amorphous needs more attention. (same with the other henchmaniacs without lines, but i prefer focusing on the character my brain has decided i am.)

I characterize them as approximately 14~19 separate individual shapes from Bill's home dimension that got combined together into one hive mind. That's why I refer to Morph as "they"—I'm not using "they" as a gender-neutral pronoun, I'm using it as a plural pronoun, they are literally multiple people.

How they got combined into one body will get explored later in the fic so I'm not gonna spoil it; but it happened during the destruction of the second dimension.

The polygon parts of them weren't all squares to start out with, but after a trillion years they found that most of the time it's easier for them to simplify themselves into a form that tessellates tidily. They can shapeshift and separate though, so they can return to their original shapes when they want, like:

(that's not literally the exact shapes they were, just concept art of what changing to their original shapes would look like.)

They're Bill's top scientists. Also, his only scientists. Not all of them were scientists, but when you've shared brains for a trillion years, you pick up each other's knowledge, and anyway over a dozen minds working on the same problem at the same time makes brainstorming faster. They're to blame for the interdimensional portal.

Any time Bill attempts to conquer a new dimension, he's gotta try to persuade the people inside that dimension to make him a portal; and in order to do that, he's got to pass those people portal blueprints; and in order to do that, he needs portal blueprints that both, a) work correctly in the physics of the dimension he's contacting, and b) can be built using the technology, natural resources, and construction techniques available to the natives. He wouldn't send portal blueprints that only work correctly with linear forward-moving time to the do-over dimension where spontaneous time loops randomly form, and he wouldn't send a design that can only be powered by nuclear fission to a culture that's barely discovered coal.

For a long time, Amorphous Shape were the guys Bill turned to for all those portal blueprint modifications. Any time he found a promising new dimension with a sufficiently gullible-looking species, he'd go in with Amorphous Shape so they could study local physics and technology and adapt the blueprints to fit local conditions.

By now, Bill & company have made SO many blueprints for SO many universes with SO many kinds of technology that when they find a new universe, they can typically tweak a design they already made rather than start from scratch; and Bill's been studying the blueprints for so long that now he thoroughly understands the science behind them and can draft & modify them himself, so he doesn't need Morph's help so much. He mainly consults with them to double-check the math before tossing the blueprints at a dreamer or to assist on really strange cases like that one dimension with a form of physics based entirely on the letter M.

Right now, Morph's bigger long-term scientific concern is the slow degradation of the Nightmare Realm and finding ways to help Bill shore up the crumbling reality; and implementing emergency quick fixes whenever something small falls apart, like a black hole threatening to destabilize the fabric of reality around several nebulas or knots tangling in wormholes because the ends are fraying.

If Bill is like the self-appointed god of the Nightmare Realm, Morph are something in between a demigod and a high priest: they don't have any reality-altering power themselves, but they do understand and influence reality far beyond any mere mortal and their petitions to the god to do this or fix that keeps local reality functioning.

Talking to them is like talking to a committee or a mob. Most of the things they say are collectively agreed-upon by the members of the hive mind, and so tend to have the careful precision of a department issuing a public statement rather than a regular conversation; but when something happens to get a majority of them mad, they get mad together and egg on each other's anger, and tend to immediately snap into confrontation rather than sit back until they calm down

They don't have a lot of hobbies they all share, so they tend to dabble in and drop a wide variety of hobbies rather than get really deeply invested in any. More likely to spend their spare time seeing what the other Henchmaniacs are doing and tag along on that than try to decide what to do on their own. Bad habit of just going back to work when they're bored since at least they can all agree that's productive.

They haven't gone on a date in billions of years and are not happy about this. They don't even have all the same sexualities, much less the same types. They need to go on a date with like a minimum four people simultaneously to balance out the fact that they'll be variously attracted to/repelled by any one singular date. Finding four people who cover their separate tastes and are all willing to go on a single date with "the same person" is pretty hard, especially when you're workaholics living with the most hated person in the multiverse and don't get out much.

Zealously, desperately loyal to Bill. They've spent a trillion years telling themselves that Bill's gonna rescue his devotees from the Nightmare Realm and claim a new dimension for them. By now it's become easier to pretend he's a flawlessly honest leader who'd never lie to them (unless he has a very good reason) than to grapple with his massive failings as a person and consider that maybe they made a mistake older than universes in following him. Any time one of their components starts to mentally doubt one of Bill's decisions, they're shouted back into conformity by the rest who are ready to offer justifications and explanations for anything he does. Can't do deep thinking on a difficult topic if you don't even have privacy in your own head.

If Bill ever wants to screw with them he can say "Morph, you're four of my best friends" and leave them going crazy trying to figure out which of their components he likes and why he doesn't like the rest. But Bill doesn't mess with the shapes much. Only if it's, like, really funny.

There used to be more surviving shapes in Bill's social circle, but over the eons they left one by one, until now it's just down to Morph, Kryptos, Hectorgon, and Bill; each time the shapes lost another member, it became harder for the remainders to consider leaving. Morph are no more capable of contemplating lives without Bill, Kryptos, and Hectorgon than you are of contemplating a life without bones. The feeling is mutual all around.

The rest of the Henchmaniacs could get fucked as far as they care.

I thought that Kryptos and Hectorgon may have been from the same place because of the fact they both have mouths but Hectorgon doesn't really have eyes? I feel like that's probably important in making that conclusion so maybe not.

Kryptos and Bill are probably not from the same dimension (despite similar design characteristics) because of said visible mouth being absent on Cipher, therefore probably not being from the same dimension. Maybe some kind of Spiderverse situation where Kryptos plays Bill's role in his dimension but like they're not the same person (at least im pretty sure thats how it worked in those movies im stupid i apologize)

idk man im making shit up as I go.

I also want to point out Amorphous Shape and Bill are the only characters with this kind of eyeshape? I was gonna point out that maybe they're from the same dimension but Amorphous has this cube on it? Which wouldn't really fit because we know that Bill comes from a 2-D world and a cube is a 3-D object (nah, really?) so. Or maybe it folded itself in like that in a 3-D space. This could be possible that they are from the same dimension. But what are Amorphous Shape's arms bro??? Is this a factor in this?? I need answers??

My conclusion: Unclear but I think we can say that they are not all from the same 2D dimension.

What do you all usually do when you're not partying ?

Either that or play Uno.

Kay so this took some time and thinking, and I'm pretty sure I have the (probable) -Dere's for The Henchmaniacs from Weirdmageddon. (+Bill)

Bill- Sadodere (Sadistic) bc you know why, and Yandere (We all know) Pyronica- Kamidere (Prideful/self-centered), Dorodere (Like Toga from LOV) or Hiyakasudere (Tease) Keyhole- 100% Derdere (kind/energetic) Xanthar- Ahodere (Oblivious to love/affection) Teeth- Tsundere (We all know), Ahodere, or Kuudere (Stoic) Kryptos- Probably a Bakadere (Childish), Tsundere, or Kamidere Hectorgon- maybe Darudere (Lazy), or Nemuidere (sleepy) (idk I just imagine him being a lazy guy.) Paci-fire- Sadodere, Kitikudere (Mean to hide affection), or Kamidere 8-Ball- 99% Ahodere, with 1% Kamidere Amorphous Shape- Hiyakasudere (Flirty) Lava-Lamp- Kamidere and/or Kitikudere (I Imagine him as some snarky guy lol.) Eyebats- None. They're like snakes: they dont have love or affection in their hearts.

And that's about it :)
