High On Life Theory dump:

Theory A, why some aliens have human names and others kind of don’t: the translator nanites are translating all the alien names to “English” approximations because it’s what the character can make sense of. So, for example, his name isn't actually "Gus" but means something along the lines of what "Gus" means as a name on Earth.(”Exalted,” “Majestic,” or less possibly, “Of Augustus.”) The ones that don’t get this treatment, say, Garmantuous or Krubis, are because there isn’t a translation close enough to it for the nanites to infer anything from so they just let it be. Theory B, Knifey’s true species: I think he's "Gatlian" in that his species comes from Gatlus. I have a theory that most Gatlians ambulate kinda like worms or in the case of Gus's species, octopi, but if you were to pull the leather off of Knifey's "Handle," he would probably have spider-like legs and crawl around on them. The blade is actually an augmentation, or perhaps just a sharpened and shaped horn. Knifey’s species probably evolved on an island somewhere on Gatlus separated from other areas which allowed for some unique differences compared to other parts of the planet, a phenomenon observable on Earth. Look up Owl Parrots for an IRL example. Theory C, Gatlian anatomy: Gatlians can shoot stuff out of their butts as an evolutionary overhang for trying to escape predators. Knifey’s people can do what they do because climbing cliffs all about them on a particularly metallic island area of the world was just the easier way away from predators. Theory D, There are many “Gatlian” species: Jist look at all the anatomical differences between Gus, Creature, Kenny and Sweezy, and realize that alone is all the argumentation I need. They’re all still collectively referred to as Gatlians to save time tho.

Theory E, the last one, is a behind the scenes one: I know part of Gus’s references for his design included a muppet/yipyip looking thing but I think all of them are actually based loosely on Boglins as a general rule, Boglins being a product Roiland at least is demonstrably familiar with given the fact that Rick from Rick and Morty owns one.

I will now include some pictures of IRL boglins for demonstration.

There isn’t really a po9int to this post, I just needed to scream these into the digital void.

Kenny and Gus from High on life, good game. 

#kenny #gus #high on life #gatlian #alien #kinda did my own little interpretation on gus if he wasnt just a gun #I was gonna do that with kenny too but decided maybe later #myart #fanart

Gus holding onto the bounty hunter’s hand when you’re in a location where you can’t shoot things is my favorite little character detail so far I think ❤️

#I LOVE HIS LITTLE HANDS AND HE’S SO NICE #i’m not great at using him but I love hearing his dialogue :D #high on life #Gus Gatlian

[gavindna]

Wait what if I made a gatliansona

#it’d be like #a sniper rifle #Gavin the Gatlian; sniper rifle #takes like five minutes to reload and has one bullet per reload #has very long range but no scope and also talks so much that the screen jerks around every couple of seconds #skill thing I forgot the name of pukes on the bounty Hunter and heals them #only useful in very close ranged situations #therefore besties with knifey #only upgrade makes him actually viable as a sniper rifle #all cost millions of credits #high on life

OC doodles, more info Abt em below vvv

G-33 / Gatlian Rick

- born human, had an experimental backup body that was Gatlian. Fiddling with the concept of augmenting one with his portal gun, this is the result

- Can make himself human again whenever he wants, just doesn't want to/prefers his weird little gun alien body for the Novelty. Other Ricks tend to be grossed out by him or weirded the fuck out that he decided to be his own portal gun

- His Morty is still alive and kickin'. If they're out Adventuring/doing whatever, Morty arms himself with Rick.

- He's self efficient enough, if C-137 could make due with the body of a pickle then I think G-33 is doing just fine. Able to fire live ammunition and portals on his own accord, has emergency bug legs if not having limbs is too inconvenient

H-95 / Soft Rick

- Lives in the citadel, has been long since estranged from his original Family. Has been working for the Morty Agency for years.

- Especially jaded and grouchy, even for a Rick. Other Ricks tend to go for low hanging fruit quips at him, he's heard them all before. Could not give a shit anymore.

- "Soft" in multiple meanings of the word, he has a soft spot for Mortys and is generally good with kids. Empathetic, does his job at the Agency well.

- His Morty was assigned to him through the Agency, aptly dubbed 'Hoodie Morty'. Hoodie's og family died and was portaled to the citadel as the single survivor. He currently lives with H-95 at the citadel.

- H-95 is working towards finding a Smith family to adopt Hoodie

- Gives better hugs than any other Rick in the multiverse

I-5000 / Nerdy Rick

- Comes from a universe where everyone is some flavor of nerdy stereotype and this was just normal to him.

- Imagine the utter shock and betrayal he felt upon learning that his place in the multiverse was being repeatedly shoved into lockers and getting wedgies, but instead of trying to fit in he doubled down on the schtick of being the Nerd Rick (out of sheer stubbornness and un-swallowed pride)

- Left his former universe behind after his Morty died in an accident, moved to the citadel.

- Some years later on he'd try out the Morty agency, and meet H-95 through it. Found him to be an absolute stick in the mud which was fun to prod at. The pair bonded over being 'loser' Ricks.

- Elf Morty hails from a version of earth where dnd type races were common place, he's of Elven blood. However that version of earth had been taken over and destroyed by an evil wizard. He's skittish and jumpy, and can hear trees talk (which isn't necessarily enjoyable usually).

Ru-ju-gun-au:

Hey!...hey you two over here!

Hey, i heard you've been looking for a gun and i'm looking to go sighting see on this planet. So...umm...would...like to pair up? I mean we could go on adventures and stuff?

Jaune: Ruby-

Ruby: Nope. Nuh-uh.

Kenny: Oh, c-come on! I just got done with my last adventure, an- and I'm ready to go out- go out on another adventure!

Ruby: Uh-huh. And what happened to the last guy you went on an adventure with?

Kenny: Oh, y-y'know, s-s-sometimes... Sometimes people disagree on things. Gatlians are people, too, if, uh, if I wasn't making it clear, uh... wh-who people I referred to. Earlier.

Jaune: What kind of disagreements?

Kenny: Y-Y'know, people just disagree on things and they can't agree on things, like, some people like pineapple on their pizza, and some people don't, right?

Jaune: We-

Kenny: Uh, n-not that I've had pizza before. Nobody ever gave me pizza. But y'know, if you like pineapple on pizza, that's- That's fine, too!

Ruby: You got into an argument over pizza?

Kenny: No! I mean, it wasn't really about the pizza. It more, like-

Ruby: They're dead, aren't they? They're dead and you need someone to protect you, right?

After watching gameplay of the High on Life DLC, I only have one criticism;

Why the HELL did they just not get Kenny a new voice actor?! The game does not work without him! Sure he can go on and on but that was part of his charm!

Harper’s great but I was hoping we would be getting an entirely new gun, not a recolor of Kenny. And her humor very much falls flat, like she’s cute but I don’t find myself laughing at her comments as much as Kenny or the other guns. They could’ve done so much more with her but nope she’s just Kenny’s blatantly obvious replacement that even characters in game call out.

Oh yeah, apparently we just dropped Kenny! Like wtf! That’s the ending he gets, after all he’s been through?! I’ve been headcanoning that he got captured or stolen and the Bounty Hunter was still looking for him since the announcement, and the best they could come up with is “Oh yeah, you dropped Kenny.”

My OC Casey would never just drop Kenny or any of the Gatlians and just move on. Fucking hell, I’m literally about to finally jump back into writing my High on Life fanfic and as soon as I’m done with the three parter I left off of, I’m making fun of this exact thing out of pure SPITE! My boy no!

*ahem* Thank you for attending my rant.

ok something that is interesting 2 me but also low-key bugging me:

the Bounty Hunter, before they get the suit, breathes on Nova Sanctus just fine. Nipulon and Garmantuous also seem just fine on Earth. You can chalk these instances to minimal exposure to these new atmospheres. But meanwhile all the G3 Grunts and Gatliens seem to breathe just fine wherever and it's basically implied Garm is just running around Earth the whole time too... oh and Lizzie is perfectly fine as well.

So how do all the planets' atmospheres compare? Are they all the same or similar enough that the inhabitants of each can breathe on them all with minimal struggle/discomfort? Is this adaptability the work of other quickly-spread microbes? Are some organisms like the gatlians + merks just more well adapted to the various environments?? That could work esp for the Gatlians who could have very well evolved to be uber-versatile so they can be used as weapons wherever, increasing the odds of worldwide or even intergalactic symbiotic relations. Extremophiles, maybe? Or at least a sort of jack of all trades biologically speaking??????

No matter what the explanation, it does point to most alien lifeforms being the same sort of carbon-based life with similar needs. Except for with... whatever is going on with Giblets, considering he's perpetually in that suit of his.

And ofc the bounty hunter still wears the helmet whenever, which would be useful when the atmosphere could prove harmful and protect against viruses and pollutants in the atmosphere. And not to mention general protection against weaponry and serving as a source of anonymity for the job at hand.

Can you write a one shot about Gene? (With this premise but feel free to change it however you want):

> A bounty hunter who has a grudge against Gene bececause he stole their kill or something breaks into the house, and is all like "I've trained for 10 years, I am now ready to face you, Gene Zarufian!" And he's just sitting there in the couch, in all his legless glory. So of course BH and the guns try to defend him, but it quickly turns out the newcomer has a very strong moral code and won't face them, so they kinda talk it out.

> And then later Lizzie comes home to a new alien living on her couch.

Sorry it took a while to pump this one out lol anyways

It was just another boring day at the house. Bounty hunter, Gene, and the Gatlians were all watching alien porn or some shitty B movie. They sat like that for a while before the door suddenly bursted open with a loud BANG!

"Gene Zaroothian, you son of a bitch!" A loud, dramatic voice boomed from the front door. Bounty hunter sprang up from the couch and grabbed Kenny, who was the closest gun to them.

"H-hey, what the fuck?! You can't just– you can't just do that, man!" Kenny yelled.

"I've trained for 10 years, and now I'm ready to face y—" the bounty hunter at the front door paused, his eyes widening as he saw the state Gene was in. "The hell? Dude, where's your legs?" He asked incredulously.

Bounty hunter stepped in between Gene and the other bounty hunter and aimed Kenny right at this unknown alien's head. They motioned at his gun and then the floor, signaling for him to drop it.

He put the gun down and put his hand up defensively. "Woah, cool it, man...I ain't gonna fight you anymore. That goes against my moral code..." he was still clearly angry.

Gene squinted his eyes and studied the other alien. "Wait a minute, Craig? The hell are you doing here?"

"Wait...You know this dipshit?" Sweezy asked.

"This fucker stole my kill!" Craig's voice was laced with salt.

"That was, what, 20 fuckin' years ago?! Let it go!" Gene argued back.

"Guys, guys, why don't we just talk it out?" Creature intervened, in his usual chipper tone.

"C-Creature's right," Kenny agreed, "we don't h-have to argue like this. Let's just talk it out..."

Gus patted the spot next to him with a soft smile, "C'mon, pal." He encouraged Craig to sit down on the couch.

Craig sighed and sat down on the couch reluctantly. "...fine..."

Bounty hunter set Kenny down on the couch and sat down themself.

"So, why exactly are you pissed at Gene?" Creature asked and tilted his head.

"Well, it all started 20 years ago..." Craig recalled. "Me and Gene were on a bounty run. I thought we agreed that I was gonna kill the bounty but no. Gene did it instead." He ranted.

Gene rolled his eyes, "It's not my fault you were fucking around."

Before Craig and Gene could start to argue, bounty hunter glared at Gene. They had a stare that basically said 'apologize'.

Gene sighed, "fine. I'm...sorry." He said hesitantly.

Craig begrudgingly accepted his apology, "I'm sorry too. It was...stupid of me to hold a grudge for that long."

They made up and everything was good. And then Lizzie came home.

Lizzie walked through the door, "hey, I'm ho–" she saw the new alien on her couch. "Who the fuck are you?"
