Ribose: "Oh well. Not my problem. 🎵"🔛Bullying & making fun of the scammer for not doing it "right".

In the context of a fight, he'd let his opponent snark & mess with him (it helps lower their guard down), but there's the low-yet-never-zero chance that'll turn into unironic yearning, to which he'll just go "ENOUGH💢👊".

If someone did their strongest attack against him, it would just harmesslt bounce off his fat and just cause him to go "...?".

#oc #monstrocity #zyguss #seraphinianussyndrome #ss

It's not so much that he has whimsy (...because he doesn't)...it's more so that the way his body works combined with the inherently silly nature of this form means that he ends up surviving against them regardless.

"How would you DEFEAT my OC!?"

TOP-LEFT: Zyguss (SS) trying to charge up a large temporal goo-ball attack using various time-displaced items within orbs of chono-jelly. Unfortunately, some of them end up sticking onto his large gut, causing him to swell up. TOP-RIGHT: Partially stuck from entering (or exiting) a chrono-jelly bubble, leaving him hanging there as his enlarged posterior is exposed. CENTER: Sitting and massively swollen as he takes a drink from a beverage, looking to the side as he does so. BOTTOM-LEFT: Nearly full-body shot of him preparing to use a Blimp Fruit (Super Mario Galaxy 2) from the year 20??. BOTTOM-RIGHT: Creating a time sphere using chrono-jelly, sacrificing some of his size to do so.

Top-left: Headshot of Zyguss with "chrono jelly" covering half of his serious-looking face, while thinking about how he's "still hungry". Above that is a small dialogue of him saying "'Dregs'...? I don't need that person anymore." Below it is a small sketch of Zyguss looking surprised as his face is pudged out. Top-right: Zyguss hovering in his "Seraphinianus Syndrome (SS)" form, with a new Genome Hex called "Atlas Strikes the Sky", along with a cape that's apparently made of "chrono jelly". He's visibly gained an unknown amount of weight, his new belt straining a bit. This may have been the result of overeating on Four-Byte Burgers. Rightmost: Small sketch of Zyguss, looking annoyed as he explains that he "hasn't been 'stress eating'" and that he's "perfectly functional without disgustingly-large amounts of food". Bottom-left: Zyguss thinking to himself "So this is my purpose...Will I have to-" before getting interrupted by the loud growling of his enlarged stomach. Bottom-right: Zyguss, more overweight than usual, looking miffed as Ribose (Scare-Eyes) wraps his arm around the hapless criminal, looking a little too eager as he giggles.

If the "flaw" in question is being overweight....no.

#oc #monstrocity #zyguss #mrdregs #dregs #omega #seraphinianussyndrome #ss

Even with his massive weight, it's rare for him to actually slow down & tire out, even without his time shenanigans. It's a fact he's rather proud of.

#oc #monstrocity #zyguss #seraphinianussyndrome #ss

He would stumble upon it by accident and snark at the contents...then go out his way to read more of it.

Sleep in, or try to avoid getting wet if he has to go out. He really doesn't like feeling rain on his body.

#oc #monstrocity #zyguss #seraphinianussyndrome #ss

Normally, he tends to make logical, if somewhat selfish, decisions within the moment...but due to his current state, he'll find it hard not to choose based on how much food he could get, even when it's to the benefit of his enemies.

Not really developed yet, but I've considered the chaos that would ensue if Shax & Ribose ever met each other.

I would go for this type of ending with Zyguss/"Mr. Dregs" & the others if I didn't have evil in my heart.

If things were going REALLY downhill and he started getting desperate.

This big guy deployed by Flippers is rather voracious, yet has insane time-based abilities. Maybe that "Ribose" fellow can help deal with him.

There's a few hints if you're looking for them, but parts of MonstroCity takes place on ???? in the future while others are on ???? in the past.

I like to think that his SS-state is partially caused by this parasite. He thought he dealt with it but either the effects linger a bit or it was laying dormant until recently.

#oc #monstrocity #zyguss #seraphinianussyndrome #ss #fat #weightgain

He'd ignore it, or at least, try to. He's not sure why it bothers him...

#oc #monstrocity #zyguss #seraphinianussyndrome #ss

Although it won't outright stop him, Zyguss (SS) being so big makes completing his jobs all the more difficult.

Zyguss (SS): All of the time. Acts like there's nothing wrong with this whatsoever.

Removing his other self means he no longer has any real outlet for his stress, and his serious side is not only on all the time, but amplified even further. To have a chance of befriending him, you'd have to help him relax.

He doesn't bother participating...not because he can't eat all of it, but because he would take most of it to keep himself from getting hungry during missions.
