line disconnected
spoilers for the s2 finale and first episode of s3 of Generator Rex
when it showed that six’s number was disconnected i had The Worst Thought so im writing it here hihi
Holiday/Six is like kinda mentioned/referenced?? they r both also referred to by Rex as his parents. rex also calls six ‘dad’ a lot.
set instead of holisix finding rex and saving him, rex manages to escape providence and runs out. simply a short oneshot and nothing more
                          -- Gratuitous use of dashes and i will not apologize (/j if                                the dashes seem dumb soz)
                          -- 1192 words babey! angst heavy >:].
----
Running. Running. Jumping. Flying. Running. Wall--
Rex hits face first into a brick wall of what he presumes is a pizza parlor, judging by the faint smell of dough, smoke, and fresh vegetables. He scrambles to find his footing, almost on instinct activating his fists before quickly remembering, hey idiot, civilians!
He finds the wall again, sitting down and resting against it, breathing as heavy as he could. It takes a few minutes to settle his lungs, something he knows he could do quicker if he had Noah here, he had a great way to manage his breathing and Rex could never remember how to do it without Noah and--
Rex shakes his head free of his run-on thoughts, desperate to find some footing in his absolutely horrible situation.
Caesar. Why was he acting like that, he’s his brother! They’re close!
Were. Were close, Rex thinks. Caesar made his choice, didn’t he? The side Rex hated, the side that uprooted his life and made things worse, it always happens just when he was doing something right!
White, Breach, Bobo, Holiday, Six-
SIX.
Rex reaches and slips his phone from his hands, not-so gracefully catching it in his normal people hands. Maybe Providence was messing with his phone? Because- Because there wasn’t-
There was no way, he couldn’t reach Six. The guy trained to keep a watchful eye on him. Nothing could stop him. Maybe bad cellphone reception. Maybe that’s his weakness.
Rex tries his number again, and before he can even get his hopes up, the screen flashes a horrible red, with the words ‘line disconnected’ displayed.
He pauses, hangs up, and does it again.
And again.
And, y’know, about 10 more times until he sees the futility of it.
He really was off the grid. Right? Holiday- Maybe she--
He was really starting to hate the words ‘line disconnected’ now.
If Rex knew Doc and Six, they wouldn’t be found if they couldn’t be. So his first logical conclusion, was that Holiday and Six were stuck in Providence. They had to be. Because, why else couldn’t he get to them? It had to be someone else, because if Rex has to admit that Holiday and Six could have disappeared of their own free will, he’d have to accept the fact he might not find them soon.
What if he has to hide? Wait out Black Knight for months? What if he has another stupid brain thing, loses his mind again?
What’s he going to do without- Without Six there? Even if his mind is wonky right now, he’s still Six, he still has a heart underneath all the silence and mercenary stuff! Six said it himself. Rex was his heart. The thing that stopped him from going full ‘crazy merc’.
Rex tries Six’s number again, and he’s sure that his phone would probably tell him to quit while he’s ahead, and Rex would reply you’re a phone, and I can call my parents if I want to!
He tries Holiday again, same outcome as the last 20 twenty times. He keeps going.
He can feel his fingers start to hurt from his repeated tapping. Rex can feel tears stinging his eyelids, and he quickly wipes them away before continuing the repeat tapping.
He could try Noah, and he’d probably answer- But Noah can’t be dragged into this right now. Black Knight was crazy. Worse than White. Rex can say that with confidence. He needs Six and Holiday before he tries anything.
He tries Six again. The tears come back and he wipes them away again. Six would’ve found him by now if he was at Providence. His bio signature gave him away a lot. Rex almost laughs at it, how Holiday and Six can always catch him when he needs it.
Holiday. Line disconnected. Six. Line disconnected.
He doesn’t bother with the tears this time, letting them fall down his cheeks.
Why did Black Knight think he was good by himself?! Rex thinks positively for a half second, because yeah, he can handle himself well! But Six or Holiday, or Bobo--
They were always there with him. He could fall back to them, get help when he needed it (or didn’t). He wasn’t good alone. He needed backup in the form of his very mismatched family!
Six. Holiday. Six. Six. Holiday.
He coughs out a sob. He didn’t notice his breathing got that bad.
“Please, please pick up... Six, please...” He feels stupid, a little. The phone clearly says the numbers status, yet he can’t stop clicking the stupid thing, hoping it’ll say something different.
He was a hero. He needed to act more tough than this. Six. He had to face off things worse than being separated from Six or Holiday, he’s been separated from them before! Holiday. He should handle himself better than this, Six would probably think he was dumb for this, wouldn’t he? Crying in an alleyway because he couldn’t get his dad on the phone, so instead of trying to do anything, he just keeps sobbing. Six. Six.
“Dad, please... Come on... Pick up, please...” When did he start calling Six ‘dad’?. He doesn’t remember (like a lot of things), maybe it started when he first met Six, since he was the first adult he saw. Maybe it was when Six started accompanying him on missions, maybe it was when he got him his goggles, maybe it was... Six. Holiday. Holiday.
He wants to break his phone, but he knows that it was a stupid idea. Holiday. Holiday. Six. Holiday.
Rex wipes snot away from his nose, too upset to be bothered by the grossness of it. Six. He just needs to - Holiday.- get a hold of - Six. - them, before things, - Six. - get worse than they are. Holiday.
Nothing is working in his favor, is it.
Rex stares at his phone, now shut off, and stares into the darkness of his reflection. He sees the tears filling his eyes and staining his face, snot dribbling down his face like a baby, and not to mention, his lip quivering like he was 14 again.
He puts his phone away and wipes his face again, to little effect, because the second he does, Rex bursts into tears again. He hiccups, sniffles, almost feels like he’s going to throw up and he still tries to make himself believe he can still look cool like this.
Maybe a few minutes pass, but probably not hours, because Providence would’ve seen him by now. It takes a while to narrow his location down, but it would happen even faster with his brother, Co-Inventor Of Nanites on his now enemy’s side.
He manages to stand up and not look completely broken, doing a final clean-up of his face and using the shine of his phone to check himself out.
He looks devastated, but he could look worse.
Rex creeps out of the alley way, and shifts himself down the mostly empty street. If he has to find Six and Holiday by himself, he can try. That’s what he can do. Six would think that was a good move.

We need to talk about the worst thing about making AUs....
The fact that then when you inevitably think about crossovers you don't want the crossover with the canon you want it with your specific AU. Your brain worms, your circus, but THEN WHAT?
Oh, yeah, to understand this crossover you need to go read this entirely different fic/series? Girl help 😭 you can't do that

[ Oc ] I was thinking about what would happen after Van Kleiss’s disappearance and Abyssus going unstable — I think Breach would just drop Sprout at Providence and pick her up after everything went back to normal (like from a kindergarten)

My piece for @bambeptin's Generator Rex art telephone: promises!
I did many things differently here from how I usually work (the lineless color styling and many texture gradients + layout), so this was a lot of fun! Thank you for organizing this art telephone, Bamboo! The piece before me by Bean @forestryfae was so impressive in my mind, I had to find a way to represent everything in that, as well as make my own take on it and the whole piece became a fun challenge.
Previews, WIPS and close-ups below under the cut!

I enjoyed working and finishing this a lot, so looking forward to finding more art telephone's and other challenges to take part in again one day :)

More Danny Phantom fans should watch Generator Rex tbh, because it’s basically everything we wish Danny Phantom was. (Link to pirate GenRex once you’re convinced and another link to the megs file if that’s what you prefer ; )
Snarky superpowered teenage protagonist? Rex has that in spades (like Danny)
Parents experimented on him? Check (DP fans wish)
A mysterious thing that no one knows much about but it causes unexpected changes in a person? (Nanites are like ectoplasm but scarier imo)
Main character abducted and used by a terrifying government agency? Providence got their grips in him when he was like 10 (they actually caught theirs, take that Guys in White!)
Smart but a little crazy older sibling character? Meet Cesar (our chaotic neutral Jazz)
Scary and powerful mentor figure with a hidden soft side? That’s Six (and he’s actually a regularly recurring mentor unlike *select ghost you wish was Danny’s mentor*)
Main character is part of a highly discriminated against group which is generally not considered human? Here we call them Evos (they’re like ghosts except death would be preferable)
Main character specifically and almost exclusively fights his own kind? Yeah, and Rex can actually cure them instead of just sending them away for two episodes.
Arch nemesis with similar powers to the hero? Van Kleiss walks in, blood-red flowers blooming in his footsteps. (Vlad could never)
We’re initially led to believe the hero is the only good guy in the discriminated against group until it’s revealed that that’s not the case at all.
Plus, there’s kind of a lot of body horror. There’s betrayal. There’s peril. There’s sympathetic villains. Theres a deeply terrifying and yet incredibly intriguing world. A crossover with another series about superheroes (Ben 10, though, not DC). There’s a pile of dead bodies on screen in the first episode—that’s not even hyperbole I’m being 100% literal with you right now.
It even has some inter-dimensional travel shenanigans including a town being pulled into a pocket dimension and leaving no trace. No cloning as far as I can remember though, but it does have a giant mutant rabbit, and the main character even sucks at basketball!
As an added bonus, it was targeted to 10-13 year olds and eventually taken off the air because it scared children : )
It’s everything your average Danny Phantom fan spends hours reading fanfiction about! I’m telling you! I cannot recommend this show highly enough!
