Human Machine!au - Tumblr Posts

I admittedly love the two Henry's theory, and with two versions of Henry's personality out there, I decided to make it cannon in my AU's. The one on the left is OG Henry, and the one on the right is CGI Henry. Here is the little rhyme I also made with this little story idea I had in mind, I'll post something proper about the full story later but for now, here we are-

Once an engine pulling a train, fell off the rail and into the plain. Through crew did that engine have to do, but when he came back there were two!

Hundred stretched tiredly as he walked into Knapford station. He walked into the number 1 platform and saw a familiar train waiting at the platform, the express. He walked up to the station guard and showed him his fancy looking glove. The guard smiled nervously looking to go into a bit of awe at meeting someone like a celebrity. “Good afternoon Mr Hundred Dollar, please, step right in.” The guard opened a coach door for him and Hundred stepped in, taking a seat.

People seemed to look at him in disgust or awe, one older looking lady though seemed to be mad. “How come you get to board without a ticket like the rest of us? Even if you are a celebrity you still have to pay, shame on you young man.” Another passenger stepped in though to Hundred’s defence. “Lady, that’s commander Hundred Dollar, he was the second in charge of the whole human machine wars. To say he’s a celebrity is an understatement, he’s basically the government of the whole population of converters worldwide!” “Don’t you dare defend this idiot, if he was really that important then why would he be taking the express?” “Because I have places to be that are faster to get to by train?” Hundred responded, not sounding all to pleased to hear this lady right now. “I’ve heard of converters rocketing through the sky at breakneck speeds, and you have the nerve to say you are one? You don’t even have grey skin!” That immediately set Hundred off. It was people like these that were the whole reason the human machine wars even happened.

The ex-commander opened up a window of the coach and knocked loud and roughly against its frame, “Ay Gordon! We apparently have someone who is to important to be riding the express! Come get a look at this! It’s so amazing!” Hundred called out the window to the head of the train itself, or rather, the locomotive pulling it. “Oh my, stop everything! I need to greet this important passenger myself!” A second after the voice from the engine said this, in a swirling flash of gold sparkles who appeared in the coach was the locomotive himself.

“My, my, ma’am, terribly sorry for the inconvenience of the express, clearly you deserve better than to be here. Please allow me to escort you out.” Gordon proceeded to animate the seat she was formerly on and uses it to pick her up and take her out of the coach. Once she was out Gordon got her off the seat and moved it back into place while shutting the coach door, once that was done he gave a small respectful nod to Hundred. “I’d rather better passengers on my express thank you very much.” He then disappeared in a light silhouette of glitter, not a second after a whistle sounded off from outside and the train began to move. Hundred sat back down and watched as the scenery went by, he clutched his messenger bag close and opened it up to revel a sign with a name on it. Thomas.

After another few stops, Hundred was finally at Brendam station. When he got off he called out to Gordon thanking him for the ride before walking out of the station and onto the pier for the ship that was soon docking. He watched as the ship came in and eventually tied up and docked, he was still fascinated by watching these ships bigger than him, it reminded him of a life left long ago. The ship dropped its stairs and soon people were getting off.

Hundred opened his bag and held up the little sign he had that read the name Thomas, he also turned on his grey skin to show he was a converter, hoping the person who he was looking for would get the hint.

He waited for maybe about a minute before a teenage boy with blue eyes and black hair stepped forward, he had a suitcase behind him and looked up to Hundred with a nervous expression. “Are you the person who’s going to take me to Sir Topham Hatt?” He asked nervously.

Art dump of future art to come of my AU's that involve ttte.

Giant!AU Thomas when he first arrived on Sodor.

Giant Thomas after he gets his harness to pull trains.

Giant Flying Scotsman.

Fusion!AU of Thomas and Diesel, Thesel!

Fusion of Gordon + Scotsman, Scordon.

Thomas + Gordon, Saphron.

Human Machines!AU of the Double H's, I'll go into more later.

Thomas in my HM!AU lost his twin brother Timothy during the human machines wars, he now watches over Thomas while Thomas lives with a lot of guilt.

Okay, admittedly, the ttte reboot is growing on me. It's growing on me in the way that the Ben 10 reboot has, it works as its own thing. And I've admittedly been considering making another au that centers around them. Maybe I'll draw up my own interpretation of human designs for them, because I love the potential it has. But for now, headcanons and ideas!

Gordon has adopted 5 kids.

Kana and Diesel I'm convinced make a "thunder and lightning" duo. Being the only of the 5 who can make electricity. Diesel being thunder because of his strength, and Kana because of her speed.

I'd pay to see a classical episode trope of character gets turned into an adult, specifically Diesel for me. He's literally a kid stuck in an adult body, so he's too big and stuff to do things with the others. He goes to play a little bash game with one of them and ends up hurting someone, he gets mad at one of the little engines and after seeing their hurt expressions he suddenly feels like he's more of a monster than an adult, he gets positioned with a ton more work than normal because he can handle it now but he doesn't find it fun at all. Things like that.

James fills in for babysitting whenever Gordon isn't available. He's like that fun uncle sort of deal.

Gordon has that episode trope of when his kids find out his brother is famous they like Scotsman more than him.

All the kids can agree Gordon's cousin Spencer is a jerk, and Gordon is so proud when Kana makes a fool out of Spencer.

Henry and Edward are good friends of Gordon that he hasn't introduced to his kids yet.

James maybe adopts a few of the other characters that are red, like Rosie and Norman.

Maybe Spencer also adopts Connor and Catlin.

Rebecca could be an engine that Scotsman adopts? IDK.

Cranky maybe looking after a teenage-like Salty and Porter.

Those are just some ideas, I don't expect this to go anywhere, but if I make sketches and skits you can be sure a few of it might contain stupid ideas like this.

Zorran + Ten Cents = Torran

Torran is a kind devoted person until you get on his bad side. His quick temper along with Zorran's deviousness makes him for a very harsh karma when his plan unfolds. He's old enough to know what should be frustrating and what isn't but as the leader of the moon fleet he just happens to find himself under stupid situations, especially regarding two fleets that constantly fuse and de-fuse on a dime.

Zebedee + Hercules = Thor

Thor is the most mafia king-like of the Moon fleet, but he is in the sense of tough love. He's the strongest out of all three fleets and is as silent and cold as a grave when you know you've messed up on something. Thor is around semi-often because Hercules and Zebedee use him as a room for their relationship after Hercules dumped Lillie. Smaller members of the fleets will often cuddle up in his fur coat, such as the switchers.

I've been watching too much all engines go... fuck if they don't look adorable tho. Have a human dad Gordon finding a baby diesel. Gordon: "Now what are you doing here little one?" Diesel: "Bbbbb." Gordon: "Heh, good enough."

I'm also on a Sodor fallout kick. Have a saved Oliver, cursed to be forever in the skin of a monster.

Sodor fallout AU, hope you like.

Since Gordon is now blind and has his mouth obstructed he has both the Henry's guide him around. He's been learning sign language, morse code, and braille along with the others. The outbreak turning a lot of people suddenly blind or mute.

James can still speak but with a very heavy slur, he's been learning sign and morse to help him communicate better. Percy mainly communicates in morse code by clicking his tongue, he rarely takes off his mask and now eats by sticking a tube down his throat. Thomas is actually not blind in his former right eye, he can see movement out of it like a heat signature that has an incredible radius, it helps out a lot with sneaking around. His third eye can actually see in the dark while his remaining normal left eye is untouched.

Oliver's trachea is actually exposed under his chin and a tongue often sticks out of it, he can still talk through his mouth but nobody is willing to ask what his biology is now to know how he does it (if he even knows himself.) His flytrap-like mouth can twist in spot to become the shape of a normal mouth, his head will get sucked in and his trachea will become the new throat for that mouth. He uses the tentacles on his back often to assist with heavy lifting with the repair projects, but the others are still a little off putted by them, especially people like Percy, Duck, Toby... and well honestly a few who have survived an attack from him. He refuses to merge or even summon his train body anymore.

I've been on another Sodor fallout kick, so let me explain mutated James and Duck. James has a sort of echolocation, he can make a click sound out of any of his mouths and it comes back to him with vibrations to his teeth, like clickers from the last of us. This by proxy makes his teeth very sensitive, he does not do well in winter as a result, having to put on a mask that covers everything but his one remaining eye. He also has rows of teeth down his throat with the first row being a secondary mouth like the xenomorphs in aliens. James has a hard time speaking because of his deformities so he will often wear a tailored mask that covers most of his face while he's in the company of others, this is also the same mask he will use during winter because of his sensitive teeth. He will take off this mask when he is going out on a mission as his echolocation is often vital for detecting hostiles. Duck was on the road to being infected and mutated when Oliver finally found him, the hole that was punctured in his head actually made room for a more balanced mutation to happen on his body. Duck has the ability to see mutated spots as a glow, this is vital in a way to tell if where they are heading into is a hot spot for radiation, or how mutated someone is. If Duck were to look at Edward or Henry, he sees no glow, just an outline. If he were to look at Oliver he'd see a massive aura, while if he looked at Thomas or James he'd see some moderate auras. While Duck's new ability is crucial in detecting dangerous amounts of radiation, or how mutated someone is, he can only see in black and white with the auras in color. So when a non-mutated person comes up to him he can't see them all that well. (this has led to him running into Percy on more than one occasion.) He normally has a mutated friend guiding him around because of his partial blindness, this person happens to be Diesel of all people since he is marginally mutated although you wouldn't be able to tell it at first glance. That's all I got for now, feel free to ask questions to/about any of the other characters.

I'm gonna try a season art challenge thing, because it's the season of love, I'm gonna draw who I ship together. So here's maybe who to expect, if I like a ship that you don't, oh well. Edward x Emily James x Rosie Spencer x Connor Gordon x Rebecca Nia x Zak Scotsman x Duchess Zebedee x Hercules Millie x Caitlin Glynn x Stephen Victor x Luke Salty x Porter Big Micky x Carly x Cranky Diesel 10 x Percy I wanna ship more, but are stuck between story telling or characters who I view as having different relationships. This will mainly be in my human machines au, so I got some drawing to do. I might not get through all these, but I'll try while I got the time.

T-10 a fusion of Diesel 10 and Thomas, I should probably be finishing the other ones before I draw anymore.

My au are like benders from avatar, depending on what craft they are and what fuel source they use is how they can control certain elements. Diesels for example control electricity, steames control water and fire. The bigger the engine the more power they can output. Theirs a lot more to it but those are the main factors.

@ TTTE fandom how do you differentiates the difference engine types in your humanizations. Like what are the difference to your Steamies and diesels appearance or physical wise?

I did this a little while ago before I came up with Thomas and his decaplet brothers, but any who, here's my interpretation of Timothy the ghost engine.

Something I have in the works... keep your eyes out.

Bonus silly story- S: "I'm worried about this." G: "I've told you. We can at least talk to Henry about this, that's why we're here." S: "What makes you so sure he'll believe us?" G: "For one; he's my best friend. And two; we still have different identifiable voices." S: "Are you sure nobody should be coming down this way?" G: "Who's island are we on again?" S: "I KNOW. I'm just wondering why Spencer is coming down this way then." G: "Oh... I didn't know he was on Sodor..." S: "We're going to be laughed at, aren't we?" G: "Yes." S+G: "Oh the indignity..."

Small warning! I am going to take some time to do some art that needs doing because of a small hole I dug. I started little plot lines with @crossover-fraternity and @dieselstooyou and @kingdicemrwheezyflowertor . For dieselstooyou I sort of need to finally come up with a design for Diesel 10 for Lazuli's fused body to make sense because if the guy defuses your gonna have one person missing from a two-person fusion. I need to design Jayde's chauffeur/bodyguard body for Jayde because normally their only a few inches taller than Gordon's humanoid body, otherwise their military-ready body is considered ginormous. I also need to design the interior for Jayde's quadcopter since that's where the engines are gonna be staying until their sorted out and back to normal. And I also need to design Diesel's body because otherwise I have designs for Hercules and Zebedee and none for Diesel yet. Some pieces might take longer than others, I already know what I'm going to be doing, drawing them is just what's going to take the time. I hopefully should have the Jayde stuff done first because that's the priority at the moment because of how much detail there will be. So I just ask that you guys keep your pants on for maybe a day and I can show everything off.

In 1908 Gordon Gresley was born in a breeding camp for the later to be A1 pacifics as its prototype. He was the firstborn and was the test subject to see if the module would be a success, and when he turned 12 he would be the fine result that yes indeed him and his siblings to come would be a success. He spent only a few months working in London before he was sold and taken to Sodor. Not being in the favor of the genetic pool of looking older than he actually was, he quite often stayed merged to his engine body to make it seem to the other older engines that he was older than he appeared. This didn't work all too well for when they used basic math the others were able to figure it out, but they let him have his little bubble that he cherished so much of being the most important engine. It came to a halt however when Gordon meet Henry still walled up in the tunnel. Gordon had heard of the Gresley highest in that thieves stole a sperm sample, so that meant Henry was Gordon's older half-brother by a year. Gordon actually dropped his guard and de-merged from his engine body to come talk to him from over the wall and the two really got to bonding over that time. It was made even better when Henry was taken out of the tunnel and later joined him back at Tidmouth. The two bonded over time and became as close as brothers, them often de-merging to rough-house or other such things with Thomas and Edward often playing parent or big brother to the both of them. Then when 1973 happened, and word of the Flying Scotsman's condition in America reached Gordon, he was very fast to get over there himself, and rescue his little brother.

In 1910, Scott Gresley was born along with 9 other brothers to different women. His older brothers of Gordon, Northern, and Frederick, being the ones to effectively raise them. That was until the day Gordon was sold and sent to an island called Sodor. The family did their best to stay together, the older siblings doing right by example to teach the younger siblings well. But as the years went on and their class became more and more popular, they were quickly being sold off once they discovered their engine bodies. This happened to Scott in 1923 at the age of 13. Scott at first heavily protested against leaving his younger brothers behind to fend for themselves, but he was henpecked into submission by his crews over the years and the threat of being scrapped by his own father. In 1934 however that came to a stop when Scott was after experiencing a particularly nasty fight with none other than his own older brother Northern. The young engine was heavily put into a fume over the fight, and it so happened that day was an annual exam. Fueled by anger and fury, he was the first recorded engine to go 100 miles per hour. This obviously caused a huge boost in popularity for the engine and as a reward he was locked in his locomotive body less and less, as long as he didn't show the public. This caused him to grow a lot of pride in himself going forward as well as a growing confidence. This especially came in handy when his driver tried to slap him for being disobedient, the man hit his mark only to have Scott smack him back 10x harder and sent him careening into a coal pot. Scott was not punished for this action and instead his driver was sacked at Sir Nigel Gresley's request himself. After that incident Scott and his other siblings began to hold out hope once again that they could have control over something, even if it would be a very rare chance. So it then became a competition to be the next best engine, so they could have that next taste of freedom. Then the human-machine wars took place from 1939 to 1945. Scott was under the belief that all youths deserved to be left out of the conflict, so he personally volunteered to take the youth trains out into the countrysides. Scott became a far more caring and mature person during this time, as he didn't care what species, race, or age these children were, they all deserved to be happy and safe. Many turning to look up to him as a father figure, and Scott would have been lying if he didn't sometimes stay longer in the countrysides to look after them longer. After the war was over, Scott was some of the few who decided to go back to the way things were with his job of still pulling passengers, the difference this time being that he was going to get paid and respected. In the 1960s the scare of the converter culling practice was upon Scott as the same as other converters. In 1962 however he was 'bought' by Alan Pegler, this at the time being one of the confirmed ways to have a steam locomotive converter be saved from death row. But when the scare passed and the law was not passed Scott decided to stay with Pegler anyway as he enjoyed working for him more than he did for British rails. Until it was when Pegler asked Scott if he wanted to do a tour of America. Scott found the idea thrilling as he had never been outside of the country before, so they got some plane tickets, and flew off to the USA. When they landed, apparently the US had different laws regarding converters. So Scott had to be administered with gold liquid while he was traveling on the rails as he was not allowed to de-merge while traveling. This royally ticked off Scott but confused him more, this was exactly what the human-machine wars fought to prevent, and here they were doing it all over again. But nonetheless, Scott sucked it up and begrudging accepted it. Little did he know this would become one of his greatest mistakes. After 10 years and then finally becoming bankrupt, did Pegler have to bid Scott goodbye as he had to leave the engine to rust because he could no longer support him. Scott was

quick to offer his own money but apparently the US didn't allow converter's money either. So Scott became in the hands of the US government and was taken to a local works to be scrapped. This was when Gordon came in. In 1973 The Galing Gallaway, Gordon Gresley himself traveled to the USA with commander Hundred Dollar by his side, unless the US wanted to start up another war the authorities wisely let them pass all the way to California. Gordon pulled his brother out of his engine body and then carried him in his arms all the way back to Tidmouth sheds back on Sodor. Gordon personally took to getting Scott back up to health as the resulting neglect on his engine body translated to him being incredibly emaciated and sick in his human body. Scott did not leave Gordon's sight for anything, they shared the same room, and even went to the bathroom together. It took nearly four and a half weeks but Scott eventually got there to having enough weight, but even then he had to relearn how to walk after being stuck as an engine for 10 years, this took 7 months. After all that time had passed, eventually Scott was strong and healthy enough to function again normally. And afterwards he decided to move to Sodor and work on its railway, this greatly overjoyed Gordon as well as many of the others on the island. To this day the island is very familiarised with the A1 brothers of Gordon, Henry, Henri and Scott.

Diesel 10. Aka; Decon. Diesel 10, D-10, or more uncommonly known as Decon, was a young refugee from the times of the human-machine wars. He was a young lad at the time being 10 years old and hadn't yet discovered his machine body. When he discovered he was a diesel locomotive, he was offered a job on Sodor to which he immediately said yes to. He was adopted into Zeus's brood and had quickly proven to be the strongest of them all, often being a big bully to his adoptive brothers. And this unfortunately continued into young adulthood where he even had the guts to put down the steamies. This came to a steel wall stop however when he successfully pushed Edward's buttons enough that the old engine actually ended up cutting his right arm off. Afterwards Zeus was quick to knock Edward out and tend to Decon. The large diesel took 8 weeks to fully recover, but even to this day, he has a newfound fear of steam engines. He even on some really bad days can't stand to be near his dad. The only ones he's even remotely okay with being near are Thomas and Percy. Nowadays he uses his metal manipulation to make himself a new arm, but this arm mainly consists of old metals. On the upside he has found his phantom pains to be far more bearable with it.

I need to do a list of Gordon's I'm gonna draw- 1) Young LNER Gordon from before he came to Sodor. 2) A hundred years old Gordon. AKA; where I think he'd be today in my human au. 3) A little headshot of giant au Gordon. (That I've already started.) 4) A fun little idea of a role swap pic, maybe two. If Gordon was a diesel, and if he and Scotsman swapped places in history. 5) And I need to finally finish that fusion of Scot and Gordon together.

Happy Gordon day! Well, it's the 5th for me but it's the 4/4th somewhere in the world. So I'm gonna sleep, and then give all these colour when I wake up. And finish that list.

Different versions of Gordon I promised- 12 years old: Gordon arrived on Sodor in my HM!AU at twelve years old, he mainly stayed merged to his engine body to make an illusion that he was older than he really was to the other engines, but they ran the math and knew he couldn't have been older than maybe 14. After Gordon rescued Henry from the tunnel that was when the others saw him de-merged from his body for the first time, and he stayed de-merged for the rest of the time Henry was recovering. Afterwards Gordon joined the others in the upstairs house instead of staying in his engine body. 100 years old: In present-day of 2022 Gordon had been retired from Sodor's express line since 2005 which his two adoptive daughters Pip and Emma now run. He has a long-distance marriage with Rebecca who still works on Sodor while Gordon works in a developing town called Lavender Meadows. He's currently the only standard gauge engine working in the small town with a narrow-gauge line being built around the hills which has one diesel working on it. He's been nicknamed Elder Dragon because of him being a steamy and he acts as an old grandpa dragon to everyone he meets, wise but intimidating. He now has a lavender livery with a number 1 on his tender and a purple dragon painted up his boiler, he also has a tattoo on his human body of a purple dragon on his back. Diesel AU: Gordon is a British rail class 55 whom pulls the express. After Sodor became a heritage line some steam engines started showing up but the fat controller keeps them closer to Vicarstown for the steam enthusiasts to see them when they first come on to the island. Flying Scotsman has actually taken a liking to Gordon as he reminds him of his older brother Galeing Gallaway. So he's sort of tried to take him under his wing with Gordon wishing the old galloping sausage would leave him alone. Role Reverse AU: The prototype of Sir Nigel Gresley's A1 Pacifics, the Galeing Gallaway, the world-famous engine for the first to go 105 miles per hour. The one to also travel the world in the 1960s, and the eldest brother to Scott. GG is cocky much like cannon Flying Scotsman. I like to imagen that if the two met they'd never shut up about getting out of the other's way and continuously trying to one-up each other, while Gordon and Scott are just watching them fight like children and trying to hold back their laughter.

Fusion of Flying Scotsman and Gordon, Scordon Gresley. It took them a month and a half before they were forcibly unfused because they also accidently fused with Spencer and the double H's.

Giant AU Gordon, he's not cannon but I'm debating writing a skit where Thomas shows up to an island full of giants.
