HERES SOME MORE OF MY INSANE RAMBLINGS FOR THIS AU
Grian used to be apart of a smaller gang called Bad boys, the trio ending their small crime spree due to the injury and near death of Jimmy(whose code name was Tim/Timmy)
Impulse and skizz came as a duo having spent most of their lives together doing petty robbery (convenience stores/five finger discounts are a speciality of Impulses)
Skizz is very much the talker of the two, he would talk to ear off the cashier haphazardly waving the gun around while he talked to them asking them nicely to "be a sweetheart and put the money in the bag won't cha" or chatting to them about the rise in gas prices while Impulse was quick to discount the items they needed for the week
Scar or just Mr.Goodtimes as he was known before he joined GIGS was a seasoned hit man, hired to get rid of people if you had the cash to back it up. Sometimes he would take other things in trade for his services. Depending on what the target had done, some clients didn't pay at all.
Gigs has some extra crew members behind the scenes
Mumbo was hired to take care of the tech side of things, often listening in on their communicators to make sure they knew the layout of the heist locations and to update them should someone notify the police to their presence early.
Mumbo tried to join them for a heist in person but unfortunately the lanky mf is a bit too anxious for this line of work and sticks to staying on his side of the communicator
Gem has a background in medical having worked as a full time nurse in the ER before quitting and falling into the hands of GIGS
She was being over worked and underpaid so when she was offered a gig with GIGS through a mutual friend(pearl) she took it surprisingly quickly, they treated and paid her better anyways.
Pearl is a runner, shes constantly running around different jobs when she's needed. Something about not liking being tied down to a singular group.
Bdubs!!! Bdubs, cleo and Etho run the black market on guns and explosives.
Sometimes when making deals with them Grian swears he saw gunpowder on Bdubs face like hes been eating it. Mumbo often accompanies GIGS members to these trade deals, it still makes him anxious but he likes the trip out and getting to talk to them is always a nice change of pace.

What I hold dear about this animatic is all the little moments at the end. (I love angst, it feeds me, all that jazz.)
But what really gets me is showing all those happy moments and jokes, all those moments that made you crack a smile.
It鈥檚 not like those moments are gone, but it鈥檚 so sad and bittersweet and there鈥檚 grief for those moments that only exist in memory.
Double life is my personal favorite season and this makes me tear up and I keep coming back to this animatic at least 6 months after I found it and it still aches
Maybe it鈥檚 just me, but I鈥檝e rarely had an animatic or piece of art hit me this hard, even when I鈥檓 not lost in my head/an anxious mess
(And I remember silly little block people are the basis for this and I cry in a whole other way lol)

DTIYS for @homiu-l !
I've only ever done 2 DTIYS' and both were for the same artist. I missed doing these, so much! Also, can you guys tell I've never really made a full design for Pearl, Scar, or Impulse? hehe- oops.
OO- hybrids tho!
Grian is a Scarlet Macaw
Mumbo is an Owl-Moth
Pearl is a Luna Moth
Scar is a Phantom
and Impulse is a Sliverfish! :D

I'm always tentative to show my planning stuff but I'm forcing myself to be more open about this AU instead of treating it like secret squirrel business
This is the planning for all their day jobs, before they got together to form GIGS
Main crew
Grian : begrudgingly works for imp and skizz at their video store as a last resort to stay off the streets after Bad Boys accident
Impulse and Skizz: own a little dying video store, convinced VHS is gonna make a comeback
Goodtimes with Scar: Works in a pawn shop and Hitman
Side crew
Mumbo: Tech repair
Pearl: Ubereats driver
Gem: ER Nurse
Joel: (this was left blank for now bcs im stuck)
Jimmy:聽 possibly moved up north on a little farm/Ranch, not sure about this one yet though
This AU is set around 2014 unless I change my mind, uber eats was established around them but I may change Pearl's job to something more Los Santos and less Los Angeles
All this is subject to change but I want to get it out there for people
