I like this plan. I'm proud to be a part of it.

[lifeisfun]

Melissa? It's derived from the Greek word for honey!

[strawberry_roll]

That'd work~!

[strawberry_roll]

Ichi has a preference for fusions having distinctive names, so... Any ideas? Like, should it reference Charizard or one of the other translations of its name at all...?

[onaroll]

Japanese name is Lizardon; maybe the fusion could be Lisa?

[strawberry_roll]

Ooh, yeah!

[samsa]

this sounds like the BEST idea clearly

and by best I mean holy unstable fusion batman

which I would also totally be down for at some point

[samsa]

the worst so clearly it's the best

[nailed_it]

Omigawd I forgot his gem is on the left, WELL THEN that just works out for everyone XD

Citrine it is then. Woot! They will be the most Yellow of fusions.

[nailed_it]

That's alright! Most of Yang's abilities are about augmenting her own strength so they'll mesh well with just about anything.

And rofl, my mind immediately jumped to like...an Altair/Assassin Creed-style Hidden Blade type thing (with some kind of gun element because of course) but another idea is just...forgoing a proper weapon entirely and utilizing the explosive shells Ember Celica has to create a sort of make-shift Bullet Hell kind of weapon?

I'm open to just about anything!

[nailed_it]

Heck, the fusion wouldn't even have to go bad! They could just be a more beastly fusion. Yang doesn't have enough of those! Pretty much the only other one she has is Tiger Eye with Blake which looks like her mom has a sort of Alexandrite thing going on with a dragon mask/mouth-y sort of deal.

Charizard fusion would be amazing.

[mopocalypse]

clearly nobody will inadvertently upset anyone else

[heptagram]

Honestly, I am pretty okay with either of those. Although the second one seems really great to me, for obvious reasons. (as much as i love Assassin's Creed gunblade because it is a great idea)

[fixi]

Oh yeah. Velvet's actually one of the small handful of people Walter would consider a fusion with as of right now...though the reason for that is actually because he keeps, uh, forgetting she's people. She reminds him of a demon so he he thinks of her like she's a mascot character instead of like she's a person with person feelings.

What first pops to mind is a small...ish, but not Velvet-small, maybe three feet tall, fusion that floats around on some kind of star/sunburst-shaped UFOish thing. Personality-wise it's kind of prickly and imperious, but with less of the condescending attitude you would expect from an ALOOF CHARACTER and more just abundant self-confidence and very little patience for other people slowing them down.

I'm thinking that Velvet's everything would shove Walter's melee nut ways into the background and bring out some of his...Lucifer-ness? So his physical contribution to the fusion is less fish than most and more gold and light and stars and being calculating and kind of bitter. It looks like they both have some issues with jumping to pre-empt people looking down on them, so the fusion probably acts in an overcapable way, acting as either a ranged attacker or a tech mage in battle and having strong "do NOT tell me what to do I know exactly what I'm doing" tendencies.

Smol prickly aloof-but-impulsive star mage.

[scaryintuition]

What do you mean they're not helping? Protecting civilians is hard work too!

they come to be known as the slacker fusion

[scaryintuition]

If they ever fuse and he finds out all of this he'll buy her the biggest tub of ice cream there and call a friend movie night.

Character: Marla | Pokemon OC
GEM: Astrophyllite
IDEAS: Marla's weapon is a godawful oculus rift visor thing that acts more as a shield/focus for her powers, so have fun with that. Fusions with her will also probably tend to look pretty androgynous and be more tactical/dexterity focused than outright physically strong as all of her powers apart from the exploding plushies are support/analysis-based, although to what degree is largely dependent on the other person's personality.

Might also be somewhat glass cannony.
EXTRAS: She's pretty chill with fusing so the most part, so I don't really anticipate too many hangups. Other than that...

[spookybloobloo]

Character: Napstablook | Undertale
GEM: Sardonyx
IDEAS: Blooky's gem weapon is a chainsaw, so have fun with that. Other potential ideas for how the fusion would look include: translucence/ability to phase through things, top hats, headphones, any combination of the three. Like Marla, fusions are probably going to be on the androgynous side as far as appearance goes.
EXTRAS: The only person they've fused with before is Mettaton, and tbh they're going to be...pretty shy about fusing with anyone else. Nothing traumatic happened, it's just...well, that's how Blooky rolls.

They might need a little encouragement.

[mopocalypse]

Alice doesn't really do offensive abilities either, so support unit?

[velvet_mystique]

Ooooh, yeah. And I could see...

Like, if they fuse their weapons together, her Mystery Globes with his sword, that could result in spiky clusters, with the jutting edges constantly shifting, almost pulsing. And some are always longer than others. Probably a good thing she's got some gravity powers, because it'd be way safer to just levitate them rather than risk touching them.

And they could, perhaps, have some control over that -- the precise shape they take -- but the thing is, they'd probably have to focus on the orbs themselves in order to do so. And again, there's that overly self-confident air you mentioned, so that they're inclined to think they don't have to worry about that. (And accidentally cutting themselves on one of the pair of spiky orbs' many, many edges would be a good way to shock them out right out of their fusion...)

[chatwithdeath]

Character: Naomi Kimishima

GEM: Charoite, Star-shaped and on her sternum

IDEAS: Naomi beauties up any fusion with her physical appearance, blue eyes, and silver hair. Her weapon - weapons - are scalpels which are fairly small, but can be used like small knives and multiple can be thrown. On top of those, her abilities include barriers, healing, and slowing down time. Finally, because of her personality, she might take the lead on most fusions.

EXTRAS: Naomi's not big on fusing with just anyone. Sure, memories don't have to be shared, but it's a better fusion when you're not containing secrets... like being a medical terrorist, having past thoughts of dying, murder game, actually dying, going to a pony world, stopping the end of the universe, things like that... People she has little CR with are considerations, but there are people she outright will not fuse with. She has fused before and that information is here.

[pishirogane]

Character: Naoto Shirogane

GEM: Moss Agate, located on the back of her hand

IDEAS: With her Princess-like appearance, Naoto may very well make a fusion more female just as easily as she could make it androgynous in appearance with sharp features, and large eyes. Her powers over plants and summoning faeries might be difficult in any unstable fusions since plants are unconsciously controlled and her faeries will become divisions of the fusions new personality; which Naoto will contribute a more cool and collected nature to. Her weapons - which can basically be fused with anything - is a gun so have at it.

EXTRAS: Naoto wouldn't mind trying fusion, but might want to do it first with someone she knows. After that, she wouldn't object to giving it a go with people who want to try. She has interesting memories, but nothing that should distract too much if they slip through in the fusion.

[modelcivilian]

Character: Adrien Agreste

GEM: Cat's Eye/Chrysoberyl, located on his right palm

IDEAS: As a lean and lanky teenage model, he'll make a fusion stand out whether it leans more male or female depending on fusion partner. Because of his generally withdrawn nature, his personality might take the backseat... unless fusing as Chat Noir who might be overbearing, and add skin-tight or leather-like clothes to the fusion. Either side, enjoy becoming more cat-like in terms of reflexes, endurance, agility, vision, hearing, and sense of smell, but at the moment, he hasn't summoned a weapon that can be combined. With the path his powers might take, learn how to use them wisely and fast.

EXTRAS: Adrien isn't interested in fusion at the moment. Interesting concept, but the idea of getting stuck hasn't settled well. That, and he's still learning his own powers that he doesn't want to burden others. When he settles more, he'll begin considering, and if need arises, his hero self will make him more willing to fuse in dire situations.

[scarlet_devil]

I'm... just curious as to what a fusion with Remi would be like. Remilia's got her own memories she doesn't want to share, though.

[chatwithdeath]

Probably stable/unstable. Not anything monstrous like Lapis and Jasper, but probably four arms and four eyes because it's more in alliance to get something over with than two friends, or more fusing.
