I want you to imagine:
Hewkii having so much difficulty describing his relationship with Macku to Gresh and
Gresh's just: "Oh, yeah, Dating."
And out of nowhere Macku grabs him by the shoulders and spins him around and yells "THERES A WORD FOR IT?"
Gresh's invited to their wedding two weeks later

Never talk to me or my son ✨Gresh✨ ever here again😭
(seriously though. Their fusion name will never not make me burst out laughing. Say that crap out loud. It's literally addictive.)
Also, pose references from Mellon_Soup again. All these sketch pages have had to be done for class so their poses are easy to work with I'm very grateful for that particular artist😭

Technically Gresh is still an odd man out because he's Jungle, not Air, but I can't deny he is green
(As usual, borrowing @barsom-fearce's interpretation)

A theme I just noticed in Toa teams; their forms change at least once
Like-
Toa Metru became the Toa Hordika (even if it's not permanent I'm counting it?
Toa Mata became the Toa Nuva
Toa Ignika became the Toa Mahri
Is this a common occurrence for a Toa team or?
(slowly glances at Ackar, Kiina, Gresh (maybe) Berix, Tarix and Vastus to see if this was ever planned for them)

i like to think that because a lot of expletives are based on anatomy/bodily functions (at least in english) that glatorian and agori would have such language and that MU inhabitants would be confused by it since they don't have those same bodily functions

Some Bionicle headcanons, illustrated. Details below the cut!
Basically this whole doodle page is about Spherus Magna's mostly organic residents, specifically the Agori and Glatorian. Going clockwise...
The ear shapes are kind of my personal solution to the "how do these guys differentiate species/class just by looking, when they're not really built all that different besides height and armor?" Agori and Glatorian are pretty straightforward; Agori have short pointy ears, and Glatorian have long pointy ears. The Bone Hunters have more of a butterfly shape, with a more pronounced "shell" and points at the tip and lobe of the ear, and the Skrall have a sort of lynx tip situation going on. With the Skrall, I wondered how they might tell apart classes from birth, so I went with giving the classes different coloration. Soldier class males and all females would simply have the tip of the ear in black, Elite class males would have more of the hardened cartilage darkened, and the Leader class males would have a distinct bright stripe marking their ears.
I'm using Berix and Gresh as examples of what I think the Agori and Glatorian look like without their helmets. For Berix, I kept in mind that his face is exposed most of the time, and he gets his ass kicked for "stealing" every other Tuesday, so he's covered in scars. The looping ponytail/bun thing is a Water Tribe tradition, marking an unmarried young adult. For Gresh, he's still a bit green and his face is thoroughly covered by his mask, so most of the scarring is localized to the tips of his ears (which chafe against the helmet). He ties his hair back very tightly, because it gets tangled in the breeze and in tree branches all the time.
The eyes don't glow, but they do reflect! I kinda modeled them after the eyes of a cat, with big irises, vibrant colors, and reflective retinas. It'd make sense to have better night vision on a planet riddled with nocturnal monsters and very long nights, and also it's fun.
Magnan hair tends to grow very quickly in childhood, but slows down a great deal as they age. As such, the regular cutting of the hair is strongly associated with children, and the growing out of the hair to the point of being able to tie it up is seen as an important mark of adulthood. However, the cutting of the hair as a gesture of grief, particularly among widows and widowers, is one of the socially acceptable reasons a Magnan might cut their hair. Hence, here's Gresh struggling to brush out some wind-blown knots in his hair, while Ackar teases him for not being totally used to the care routine that comes with it. Ackar, meanwhile, has a bit of gray in his old widower hair (not quite a recent loss, but enough to still be noticed; nobody asks him about his husband anymore).
Malum demonstrating what it looks like when these guys are mad to the point of snarling. I imagine that, if the bones are metal, then so are the teeth. It's actually kind of interesting if you think about the implications of that. Metal teeth would likely be way harder to break down by bacteria, and they likely don't consume nearly as much sugar as we do. At the very least you don't have to worry about your teeth rotting out in the apocalypse.
Kiina demonstrating the telltale signs of a Core Wars veteran, namely the old scars, the clipped ears, and the back brace. Scars are self explanatory, but why the ears and brace? Given that the Elemental Lords seemed to have degraded from their original mental state since their transformation, it makes sense that they'd probably be less than kind to their soldiers. Clipping the ears not only removes another potential area for infection, but also acts as a sort of hazing ritual; those too squeamish to face the shears wouldn't be fit for the army. The brace is a response to deteriorating spinal implants from the war. Glatorian tend to develop back problems later in life anyways simply because they're so tall by nature, but the spines of soldiers were reinforced en masse to make them tougher and more capable of handling the strain of carrying equipment and supplies over long distances.
And a cute little doodle of Mata Nui watching ants, because that seems like something he'd do. Imagine going on walks with that guy; he'd be like JRR Tolkien on a nature walk, he'd just be staring at a bug for like 20 minutes.

Lewa‘s new apprentice
Once he was asked by Gresh to train him in the ways of the Toa of air, since the young glatorian really wanted to be part of that hero shtick. Little did he know what that entailed. Lewa was ecstatic to finally teach someone the ways of… tomfoolery!
It is an important part of being a Toa of air he would claim and Gresh in his naivety will follow in this great hero‘s footsteps. Berix realizing what’s up is instantly down for it too and so Lewa has two new friends to do all sorts of shenanigans with. Gresh is a bit apprehensive and uptight, but Lewa shows him the ways

Time for some controversy.
I don't really ship bionicle characters that much (Hewkii & Macku being one of my few exceptions)
But.
I think the idea of Kiina and Mata Nui is hilarious. I don't really even ship them romantically, I just chuckle at the thought of this eccentric glatorian putting the moves on someone who's essentially God.
Kiina constantly dropping the worst pick up lines and innuendos, and every single one just flying right over Mata Nui's head.
Meanwhile, Gresh is absolutely dying of laughter, Berix is mortified, and Ackar is just stonefaced and refuses to explain any of it. "Oh Mata Nui, you sweet summer child."
Of course, after the reformation, you can imagine the psychic damage the toa get from finding out their Glatorian coworker made a pass at god.
Again, not really shipping, I just think it's a funny setup.

If agori and others exist in your AU, how do they differ from matoran and toa?
I've put some more thought to it since my Annona doodle, and this is the direction I'm heading with Agori/Glatorian.
Since I didn't really feel like doing more of the reptilian-like angle I've been taking with most of the other species of this human!AU, I'm essentially making the Agori/Glatorian the equivalent of Elves or Half-orcs for this au. Though they still have pigmented tattoos that have remained on them since birth to kind of emulate their helms.
I gave them tails too since the Iron tribe has that whole species regression and I was like, "... Well the scorpion tail had to come from somewhere right?" It makes sense in my head at least hwieohjgiodsa :'')
Tumblr media
It's probably a mid take in terms of humanized designs for them, but it's much better than what I went with before a long while back - which was just they looked no different from the Matoran/Toa.
Still, I might think on them more, but I'm happy with the angle I've taken so far.
Thank you for the question~!

Just thought of something after seeing the injustice that is the Bionicle ending, and TW for themes of racism, amd just a heads-up that this is essentially me trying to do a justice and more pulling muscles while reaching, so bear with me:
So, during a period of recovery, the Matoran and Toa just take time to relax, to sit still, be calm, and not talk to anyone
It goes as well as you think because they end up being plagued with nightmares and they aren't sure how to deal with it
The Toa are especially taking it hard because what Teridax did to them has not gone away, or at least hasn't gone away fast enough, like it's steadily getting better. Whenua is still blind. Nokama still can't talk. Matau's state is deeper because he's feeling what Vakama feels. Onewa is still not all there. Nuju still can't understand anyone. Vakama is still in pain from what he's been through
It doesn't help that the Agori and Matoran don't really like each other, and that puts a strain on getting everyone rehabilitated, though the Glatorians are more open toward the Toa
To say the least, there's a lot of breaking up fights, a lot of arguing, and just hostility that leads numerous of the people to try and ignore each other and be ready to throw hands
Add to that the Vorox, the Baterra, the Bone Hunters, and Skrall, and people are just exhausted and close to just laying in bed forever and accepting that they might not live to see tomorrow
I will say that the Toa Nuva are active, and try to stay active, but this is more them working so they're not focusing on the events of the Destiny War or the Rein of Shadows, and it doesn't help that they'repossibly realizing that the way to end a fight is to end your opponent and they are trying to keep things peaceful, so there's that. The Toa Metru, namely, Nuju, Nokama, Vakama, and Matau, eventually join, wanting to get back into helping around even if no one cares
Onewa and Whenua are told to stay back, the Toa Mahri guarding them and making sure they're safe. Whenua is frustrated because he can still fight, sight loss be damned, but Onewa would rather wander for a second, his mind recovering enough to take in where he is. He's intrigued by the plant life, the animals, the people that don't see him, even a little scarabax that's missing his friend, so he joins Onewa
Also joining Onewa is Kiina, who's at first very vocal about seeing him alone, but slows her role when she sees she genuinely scares the hell out of him. She also points out that the scarabax belonged to a friend of hers, and she's glad to see Click(the scarabax) make a new friend
There's awkward silence, but Onewa walks toward a mountain, Kiina following so he doesn't get hurt. She finds him staring at the blank face of the mountain and she admits that it's literally just a mountain, that it's not something anyone wants to mess with because of rockslides
Onewa still stares at it and Kiina helps him back to where the Matoran and Toa made camp, the Toa Metru relieved to see their friend is alright. Kiina learns Onewa used to be a carver, an architect even, so maybe he was looking for something to work on. She tells everyone to stay safe and give them space, though Onewa and Click start messing with each other because they're bored
With the other Toa, they have little success in speedrunning a melding that Takanuva saw, but have bigger problems with the Vorox, the Marendar, and Baterra. While they're resting, Vakama goes to take care of it on his own, but he's followed by Jaller and Takanuva, who he lets tag along, just in case. All three are caught anyway by Tahu and have to be led back to where the others are because Vakama is/was the leader of the Matoran and really could be useful in keeping things civil. Takanuva, having his memory fully restored, could prove to be helpful by explaining more of what he knows and remembers to get the Agori to not hate him, and Jaller is still kind of a rookie and needs to stay safe
It's a tough pill to swallow for all three of the friends, only now they have time to actually breathe and get it out of their systems, which Jaller does because he's still processing that all three knew each other. When asked, Vakama reiterates he told the Matoran about Metru Nui as legends because that was easier than saying, "we used to be friends, and I gave up my power to get you out of what would have been an endless sleep that would have killed you. I lead you now." Jaller isn't concerned about the Metru Nui stuff, but is upset about Vakama not telling anyone about the events of Time Trap, and the time loop he put himself through
Vakama admits that he'd already put his friends in danger once, having gotten them mutated and almost killed, and didn't want them to suffer like that again because of him, not with the Matoran and their lives on the line
Jaller falls silent and Takanuva has said nothing this entire time, only watching the camp instead. Vakama asks if he's alright and Takanuva says he's fine, not wanting to hear what anyone has to say right now because he would rather make sure the Matorn and Agori get along. Jaller steps closer and sees that Takanuva is VERY not fine at all, as in he's distraught and trying not to break down in front of his friends
WEELL, no time because they hear clamoring and race out to see what they think is Whenua dragging Nokama away by the foot, but there's an issue: Whenua, who is still blind and wears a blid fold, is not wearing that blindfold and his eyes are different(I know the Baterra is supposed to be undetectable, but I imagine they don't have a full understanding of the Toa and their "Tells" for who's who)
Nokama breaks away and runs, trying to tell Vakama, Jaller, and Takanuva to not draw their weapons as they, naturally, draw their weapons. Luckily, though, with the Baterra distracted by three new disguises and targets, it's taken down by Gresh, who uses a mix of elemental powers and maybe hand to hand combat to get the job done. They're all shaken and stirred, but Vakama asks Nokama why they shouldn't draw their weapons, Nokama revealing that it's what got he nearly killed in the first place. Gresh isn't sure where they were or how they cane to be, but there's a cave Kiina goes to that has the history and science of Spherus Magna written on the walls, so that's an option they have
Nokama would like to go there, as she can possibly translate what's written, but Gresh politely asks that the Toa stay behind; they'll be easier to pick off if they're separated
Nokama does not, asking to talk to Kiina and see the cave, which Gresh ultimately agrees to. They rest up for the night, Vakama keeping watch, even though Jaller points out that he's making himself lose sleep again, and who devides to speak with Vakama but Raanu, who admits he's seen a lot of weird things in his time, but he wasn't expecting to see the Matoran and Toa again. Vakama's confused, but Raanu admits Vakama probably wouldn't remember; he would have already possibly been inside of the Great Spirit Robot by then
Vakama admits such and, being tured and not feeling his best, asks Raanu if he's here to tell the Toa and Matoran to get lost. Raanu is aghast and states he's actually here for some good old intel, to get to know the new inhabitants of the planet that's just been put back together again, and seeing as how they're all stuck in one place with no other planet to go to, better to stick together and get to know more about each other
Vakama agrees and asks where Raanu would like him to start, which Raanu decides on Vakama himeslf; he's led the Matoran for so long, weary leaders tend to recognize each other. Vakama admits he isn't much of a leader, and Raanu calls that another reason they could get along, because Ackar leads the Agori more than Raanu does. The two sit and spot a Matoran having a disagreement with an Agori before they part ways, and Vakama sighs that no matter what happens, there's always another fight to win, only now it's multiple at once. Raanu agrees and calls it the natural cycle of things; if life was peaceful, it'd be too easy
After some silence, Vakama starts to explain his life and being in Ta-Metru, though he does explain more about stuff beyond that
At a distance, a group of Matoran seeing the two talking and are on edge because Raanu could be setting Vakama up to be tricked, but also say that because the Agori have not been very welcoming
To be fair, the Matoran have been irritatable towards the Agori because of everything they've been through, with Rahkshi, Bohrak, and Vahki and being stuck inside of a giant robot that was bent on making them all suffer.
So, what the conflict between the Matoran and Agori is, is one side being wary from all they've experienced and being on edge because they don't want to deal something else they wants to kill them again, for the fifth or seventh time. The other side is also wary, having dealt with Bone hunters and Skrall, and they have some foggy memory of the Matoran and, last they remembered, the Matoran weren't sentient, so they're freaked the hell out
Either way, there is still conflict, but it's equally lowered and raised at seeing Vakama and Raanu talk and at seeing the Toa with the Glatorians

So I remember this thread one time of Matoran reactions to Tattoos and Piercings on Agori and Glatorian (Gresh being the guy who has so many of both)
So imagine Tahu wanted to get a tattoo sleeve despite the normal way of it won't work on a mechanical metal being so Gresh gets an idea of another way and just gets some paints and brushes and after painstakingly hours of a fire toa being impatient and a Glatorian with patience of a saint keeping him occupied as he does it, Tahu has a fucking full out Tattoo sleeve on his left arm and it's mainly flame designs with some differences being the Kanoi Hau, the Three Virtues, the Kaita, totem ver of Mata Nui and Tahu's lineup pose (sword in air) of his Toa Mata self
Needless to say the Nuva are actually impressed by it and are tempted to ask Gresh to do the same to them
