Description

*Yes, I said OC, not OCs. These two characters are not twins, they are the same character.*
*This isn't an act of sex-change nor some kind of a Ranma 1/2 spell; it's more of an act of crossdressing, and the girl is the true identity of the character.*

*Also, Warning: This is going to be a long comment. So please read carefully & take your time before reacting to the picture :iconreadbeforecommentplz: *


If you guessed it's my Fat Albert character, Vanessa aka "Ness", you are correct.

Ness was/is yet another character I made just for creativity but ended in development purgatory due to the comparisons of my other characters (just because they have blonde hair, even though they each have different styles & shades of color);
and her backstory based on the stupid idea I had for the mediocre live-action movie, that lead to an ED summary of her. :no:


The reason why I made Vanessa/Ness is because I have a theory that Mr. Cosby secretly wanted to add a ninth & female member to the main cast (because there are moments/scenes/episode where the boys had a female character joined them in activities & they blend very well); As for her being blonde & Caucasian, it's just based on the coincidences that most of the female characters that hang around with the Junkyard Gang (who weren't one-shot love-interests) share that same description; this also included their teacher, Ms. Wooker.


*Yes, I am aware of the rumors of Mr. Cosby recently; but less we talk about them...the better, and just leave the man retire in peace.*

And Ness' role wasn't meant to be just another token outer-race and/or female character, her role was to be the neutral side of the guys' arguments (in the old cartoon, the boys are either on Fat Albert's side to stay out of trouble or on Rudy's side & get into trouble); and be the straight woman to make the boys stay grounded when they are acting foolish (after all, too many clowns in the circus is all fun and games until the tent collapses).

More like Beverly (minus the infamous part in the book) from "It," and noting like a bizarre reverse harem lead.

Now onto her (new) bio:
Rose Red Bullet - F2U! Vanessa aka Ness & her family moved to Philadelphia from Brooklyn, New York, and lives in an apartment in Fat Albert's neighborhood.
However when Fat Albert and the boys met Ness, she was introduced as a mute boy who quickly took interest in inventing things out of various parts from the Junkyard but gets a little unnerved when they want "him" to join in their activities that'll expose "his" true identity.

But they eventually over time found that "he" is actually a "she," once Vanessa's hat came off revealing her long hair and they unintentionally got a good look at her chest (her sweatshirt was still on her) when she took her heavy coat off.
The boys still allow her to join their gang, but they still have awkward moments around her now that she's comfortable being a girl around them (typical teenage boys :roll: :giggle: ).
And Ness continues to hang around with them, despite what some people say about them, because she's drawn to quirky personalities & it's nice to be around a group of people who aren't afraid to be true to themselves.

So what do think of Vanessa/Ness now? You think she would fit in?
