Runner5 - Blog Posts

early season 4 runner five. specifically pre-m22.

1. a liittle looser on the long part of the mohawk but still obsessive about the sides and beard.

2. a LOT more scars in hard-to-find places

3. feels like everything keeps pulling them back. they want to confess their feelings for sam but want to not be so unwell first because they feel theyd be an emotional burden due to their mental health issues (relevant in the next one)

4. barely sleeps, avoids people. wants help but feels like they cant ask for it since everyone has so much on their minds already. knows this isnt healthy but cant get past it.

just overall a bad time

part 3 out of 3 for season 3. spoilers for late season 3!

welp heres 5 post mind control, a total wreck who is exclusively powered by the screaming rage and terror at the thought of moonchild getting what she wants.

1. growing their hair out and cutting their beard are now severe triggers for them. they obsessively trim their hair far shorter than normal but will cut you if you go anywhere near the beard. dyed their green the most eyewatering, unnatural shade of neon green they could find as an act of panicked defiance and to try and regain some autonomy.

2. insomnia took a hard turn for the worse accompanied by nightmares and panic attacks.

3. fell off a seven year self harm wagon.

4. severe mood swings. desperately wants the comfort of their loved ones but feels too guilty to seek it out

S3M44 AND ONWARDS SPOILERS

2/3 for my s3 sketches of five, sooo this is them under mind control.

1. moonchild just Happened To Mention things she thought would look good on them, primarily that they should grow their hair out and shave their beard as well as stop bleaching and dying it. and being under mind control 5 was only too happy to do what msde her happy.

2. 5s eyes are usually fairly glazed over and tend to go unfocused and wall eyed when not focusing on something specific.

3. their smile is usually peaceful and mindless but on rare occasions becomes a frantic grimace when forced that can even break into hysterical giggling when excited in any way (doing something that they fight against)

4. the most well rested theyve ever been.

5. picked up a lot less scarring during this time

im splitting season 3 into three phases with this first phase being up until about s3m44.

1. the usual applies; scars fade, new scars are acquired, more facial hair grows in

2. taking the loss, betrayal, and uncertainty hard. having a lot more trouble sleeping. their hair is a little more unkempt this season.

part two of my sketches (see zombies run seasons challenge tag) for runner 5.

they picked up a Lot of new scars during season 1 and are more confident and competent but a lot more tired and stressed out.

1. since its been about a year since the outbreak and even longer since their accident, five's face is healing quite well and some more patches of facial hair are cropping up on amoungst the scar tissue.

2. keeping their hair a bit shorter now so theres less to grab

3. doesnt wear their facemask in abel nearly as much but still wears it on runs

watching adventure time reviews/theory vids and doodling. dont really like how these look but im trying to draw and post more.

a lil bit of 5am and my runner 5.

“Moonchild’s Grip”

A redo of that painting I made in April, but with Five’s finalized season 3 design. Who doesn’t need a little dramatic ZR art in their life? And yes, I did add a crescent moon tattoo instead of Five’s runner band, because what the hell.

Also, I might have done this to procrastinate doing that one piece I’ve been working on for a while :,)

Runner Five doodles :3

Part 2 of my Five! Seasons 5-8 😙 I think the season 5 version is one of my favorites (I just really enjoyed drawing those socks).

A Little Info About My Runner Five

Aha, I completely forgot to put anything about my Runner Five in the original post whoops. I’ll keep it as spoiler free as possible, but I’ll put warnings if there is anything. :)

General Info:

-Chaotic good character

-Internal dialogue 99% of the time: “aaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

-Likes to paint in free time

Season 1:

Still refers to self as “Mullen’s Base Operative” instead of Abel Runner (but doesn’t mind the nickname “Five” so much).

Wary of everyone and suspicious (and a little unsociable).

Very professional, preferring to keep any conversations related to the mission. 

Level-headed. 

Secretive. 

Few scars (due to cautious nature). 

Season 2-3:

 Refers to self as Runner Five.

 More laid-back (mostly Sam and Simon’s doing).

 Trusting (but a little too much sometimes). 

 Jokes a lot more. 

 Closer to/ more open with people around them. 

Still pretty unsociable, though. 

Chaotic.

Reckless (hence the many new scars). 

**Spoiler Warning for Later Season 3 and Season 4**

Season 3 (Ep. 45) - 4:

Tired.

Traumatized from Moonchild and mind control.

Stressed out.

Very paranoid.

Withdrawn from people (except Sam). 

They’re working through it, though (get it, honey). 

Gradually returns to personality from season 2 later on into season 4.

Also shaved head at some point while being mind controlled, but they don’t remember doing it or why ??

I’m planning on doing more of these for seasons 5 - 8. But in the meantime, good day to you and stay healthy. 

Forgot to mention I’m very invested in this app, so here’s my Five ✌🏻
