Still trying to figure out FireAlpaca. I can't for the life of me figure out how to color properly on it, but I'm trying!

Anyways did this little doodle of my two OCs a while back and figured I'd share it! I've drawn these characters before, but never shared them before. Here we have Kir (on the left) and Asim (on the right). They're a couple for the most part, but they didn't intentionally start off that way. In fact, part of their story is that Asim was bought by Kir's father and given to him as a sort of companion since he's a prince and doesn't really have much friends. Not that he doesn't try, but his position prevents him from making friends much so his father went out of his way to get him a friend. While the notion can be seen as nice, Kir didn't see it as such because it's like, "You don't buy friends. You make them." So at first, he wanted nothing to do with Asim because he didn't want to force him to be his friend unless that was what he wanted. Asim didn't have anywhere else to go though, so he course lies about wanting to be Kir's friend and basically forces himself to be his friend.

You can probably guess how that turns out. The two end up not seeing eye to eye (or screen to not eye since.. yeah), but eventually over time Kir begins to take a liking to Asim, especially when he notices his odd.. behavior. Asim being a robot for the most part, isn't organic but he's obsessed with organic stuff. Especially if they have a texture to them. Which is one of the reasons he wears the feathers over his metallic skin. They're fake, but they feel soft and he loves the feeling of them on his "skin". The wing-like things on his helm are also fake, but he also wanted to learn how to fly or TO fly but he can't so.. He made himself wings instead. Why not on his back? I don't know. He put them on his helm instead because he felt his helm needed a decoration of sorts, that's why.

ANYWAYS here's some tidbits of information regarding these two (as if I haven't talked enough about them holy crap):

Kir
-As I said, he's a prince! He's a very kind, loving prince though and likes to help others whenever he can.
-As to what he is, I'm not sure.. He's just this THING.
-He doesn't have eyes or a mouth, but he can still see in a sense. He doesn't eat though because he doesn't have to. None of his race has to.
-The diamond above his head displays his emotions since he doesn't have a face. It changes colors based on what he's feeling. Yellow typically means normal or he's content. Whenever I make his REF Sheet, I'll be sure to include the colors and what each one represents.
-He LOVES to dance and it actually very good at it. He does a variety of different dances, but his favorites tend to be ballet, contemporary or ballroom. He's also very flexible because of this!
-He's very strong and has no trouble picking up Asim, who despite being a robot, is actually very light weight. In fact, he kind of manhandles him whenever he has the chance, but he doesn't mean anything malice by doing this and for the most part, Asim doesn't mind. In fact, he secretly adores it.
-His right arm doesn't connect to his body at all, but he can still feel it.
-Both of his hands have holes in them. As to why, no one knows.
-Not shown but, he has a cracks in his chest area where his neck (if he had one) would be.
-He's also very affectionate, much to Asim's dismay. He secretly adores it even if he huffs about it.

Asim
-He's a robot, so nothing about him is organic. He's obsessed about organic stuff though, as I've said, especially if they have a texture or feel to it.
-He doesn't have a face either, but instead a screen. It sometimes displays symbols or emotions whenever he wishes it too, but for the most part it remains blank since he can talk and is better at displaying his emotions via body motions and such.
-His voice sounds very robotic as well. Probably a good example of this would be Baymax from Big Hero 6. Very soft. Very gentle. Doesn't hide any of his sass though and he has plenty of that.
-He usually can be found wearing a suit of feathers or clothes over that. As I said, he likes anything that has texture to it so he likes to wear clothes and stuff. Under all that, he does have a body and it's made for the most part of metal. It's highly flexible though.
-He doesn't know how to dance, but Kir is teaching him and slowly he's becoming a fan of it. Especially when Kir picks him up and dips him.
-Not much is known about his past because mainly he doesn't like to talk about it. It's speculated that he was made to be a companion bot of sorts, so he was bought and sold many times. He doesn't really like this status, but it's programmed into him so he doesn't have much say in it. Luckily for him, Kir treats him differently and he loves that.

That's enough information regarding these two I think. I may draw them again sometime soon because I adore them. They're cute together! Hope you enjoy.
