Allen Impala is called to a meeting with one of his Higher Ups after he failed to meet quota and provide them with stolen goods due to his current status as a patient at Middlesea. All he can hope is that it all goes well.
Hellooooo! Finally managed to finish this little RD Allen thing I was working on cuz the concept would not leave my head lolol. It doesn't have much to do with Rhythm Doctor so I tagged it as an original work on Ao3, but since it has to do with Allen specifically in the RD universe, I'll tag it as such here. Hope you enjoy, even if it isn't something I usually write. As usual, be mindful of the warnings!
"... That's not a bird."
Well well well, hello there! Guess who's been having a time with Rhythm Doctor and decided to put one of her favourite little guys in there just for the fun of it!
For the uninitiated, meet Allen Impala! He was the deuteragonist to Joshua in one of my older projects, Ask Joshua Freeman. I really like him and the main cast from there mean a lot to me, so I've decided to bring them over to my mainest hyperfixation so I can have more fun putting them in situations, starting with Al!
To celebrate the occasion, I've even taken the liberty of updating his old character ref a little to better suit what I'm going for with him this time.
And what might I be going for, you may ask? Why, an Interloper, of course! Allen is a little interdimensional traveler, going to boundless places in the multiverse and across dimensions... in order to STEAL as many precious items of interest as he can.
That's right, baby! Allen is a little Cat Burglar this go around! With the help of his goggles to see whatever might be of value, he sneaks and takes in order to send his findings off to a land between dimensions, somewhere that something (or things) are willing to buy just about anything from him. In return, he gets money, games, food, and a base of operations he calls "Fort Thievery!"
Unfortunately, he ended up in Middlesea Hospital during one such attempt at an excursion and was found out as he was hiding in the vents and feasting on junk to try and curb his neverending appetite. From there, doctors asked him questions, monitored him, panicked over the unnatural speed that his resting heart rate took on, and generally made it a lot harder for him to do his job in retrieving goods to steal. But hey, it isn't all bad! At least most of these people are either nice, entertaining, or willing to get him food or aid in whatever way they can! And hey, with one quick call, the rest of his friends might be able to come on over and have some fun around here too, make things a lot less lonely around here!
Now if only he could find his phone...
I'm really so happy to introduce him to this world fr haha, please do not hesitate to ask any questions about this little goober gremlin, I'd be more than happy to answer them!

Hey, is Samantha seeing the certified freak in the painting too, or are our boys just cursed?
"... "Certified Freak"...?"
Samantha raises her gaze, only for her eyes to grow wide and her face to grow pale upon catching sight of something. The boys, confused beyond all merits, turn to look directly behind them...
... and... catch sight of the "freak" you spoke of... It lingers, just long enough for them to see it, to watch the black sludge trickle down its fingers, and then it is gone, vanished back within the painting.
The boys both stare up at where the arm had been, both much too scared and put off to say anything for a good while.
It isn't until Samantha speaks up again that they are broken free from their petrification.
... She, however, proves much less than unhelpful for the current situation, acting as though nothing was there. Nothing had ever been there. Nothing is.
"... But you... you looked terrified..." Joshua managed to say despite how his own body shook. "D... That just happened, we saw you, how can you..." He continued, baffled at the current dismissal.
Above the boys where the hand had been rests nothing more than the painting that had been there prior, as if nothing at all had occurred.
Of grandiose and valor, here are our boys!
It might've taken me a biiiit too long to make these references, but I'm incredibly proud at how they turned out. Shout out to @pokeblog123 for the idea of Allen's sweater having horns and devil's wings, it works so well!
It's fairly easy to see a real difference between them and I couldn't be happier that I managed to capture their mannerisms and little quirks in these refs. Joshua needs some goddamn sleep and Allen...
Allen just needs some hang time with his bro, that solves everything!
Gah, I love my boys so much! Here's to hoping we can get them a good ending, right?
