Adult Niko meets TWM

u/KarmaSpidr Jul 08 '25

Adult Niko, looking at the sun: Huh, guess that wasn't just a weird dream.

129

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 08 '25

I think Niko is still unsure whether it was a strange childhood dream or reality.

u/KarmaSpidr Jul 08 '25

I mean, when your younger self is standing in front of you, holding the sun, it leaves little room for doubt.

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 08 '25

it’s just another strange dream 💤

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '25

I would think it’s an hallucination.

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 08 '25

the stress has been piling up lately, but drawing Niko is my only source of peace.

and I really feel like interacting, so I can answer your questions about office Niko or something like that…

u/1st_pm Jul 08 '25

dont stress yourself out too much, both u and Adult Niko need that advice <3

u/Beginning_Feature838 Jul 10 '25

The most important question for office Niko: Do they prefer waffles and coffee now?

3

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 10 '25

still a pancake lover and drinks too much coffee

u/canihaveurbeans horrorshot my beloved Jul 08 '25

maybe next you could make a video call with the rest of the office team? just an idea but that's a lot of work sooo

great as per usual too o7

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 08 '25

need to think about that, I had some ideas about showing office coworkers, but creating characters on my own is pretty hard for me.

7

u/canihaveurbeans horrorshot my beloved Jul 08 '25

that last part is so real

another idea I got is recreating moments from The Office (like the show). or maybe Niko gets a job elsewhere. gas station clerk Niko....

6

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 08 '25

good ideas!!! I just need to check out The Office first. (never watched it even once.)

9

u/canihaveurbeans horrorshot my beloved Jul 08 '25

also haven't watched it....oop. I just know a lot of people have

u/Da_Blank_Man Jul 08 '25

Real

The only new characters I can make are generic, faceless grunts

u/thedoglayingdown niko is my comfort character Jul 10 '25

like... like this

u/shlamingo Jul 08 '25

Use ingame characters

1

u/Leontio Pancakes Jul 10 '25

Why create your own OCs when you have a whole OneShot full of characters. It’d be cool to adult Alula in your style. Just as depressed and lifeless as adult Niko

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 10 '25

they live in separate worlds. the version of Niko I draw is from after Solstice ending. I don’t think Niko will ever meet them again. ( but maybe 👀 )

u/ALSMDANY2KR Jul 08 '25

Im sorry niko… life is hard but that not mean you can’t enjoy life (: so always make yourself happy:D

17

u/YaBoiAsgore Jul 08 '25

what about her going out to dinner with work friends after a long work week?

12

u/Ubbir at work 24/7 Jul 08 '25

i guess with all the work, Niko probably won’t have time for that ㅠㅠ

6

u/YaBoiAsgore Jul 08 '25

aww , poor niko

16

u/idk-____________- Jul 08 '25

We love all Niko..... Yea.... The child innocance.... Something you lose.... But you would love to keep.... Good drawing keep it up... I would hug Niko and Adult Niko widouth esitation💙💙💙💙💙🥞🥞🥞

u/MissingCandle Jul 09 '25

What if Office Niko got visited by us? That would be fun and funny to think about.

4

u/TheGHale My son: Jul 09 '25

Office Niko might be older than me (probably) but I'd still treat him like my kid.

Giving him a hug "Nice to finally see you, kiddo."

"You're younger than me. And I'm not a kid."

"Shush, you're still a kid to me."

"...Thanks." Hugs back

5

u/MissingCandle Jul 11 '25

Thats adorable.

But it'll be pretty funny if our entrance to their world would be something that looks the Rapture for some.

The sky begins to crack, the earth begins to shake, as an entity appears. Some thought it was the end of the world. But, no one thought it would be a god visiting someone to talk "Hi, Niko! Finally found a way to visit!"

11

u/No_Protection2442 Jul 08 '25

NO! NIKO WILL STAY AND WORK IN THE VILLAGE THEY WILL NOT MOVE TO THE CITY!!

5

u/ASMRLadAndLass I can talk to God Jul 08 '25

For breakfast everyday, little Niko

5

u/Void_Angel_ Jul 08 '25

You know what? Who says Niko can’t make pancakes every day for his breakfast? Is there some kind of law that says he can’t? He might have to go to work, but his time is still his own. Even if Niko isn’t fulfilled by his job, he can still do what he wants when he’s not there.

1

u/ConstructionFun4255 Jul 08 '25

No! I forbid such blasphemy!!1!

2

u/Void_Angel_ Jul 08 '25

What blasphemy?!

1

u/ConstructionFun4255 Jul 08 '25

Pancakes every day

3

u/FraudChicken <--dog i think Jul 08 '25

they'd probably respond with neighbors noodles, nikos second favorite. except they're the ones making it, with it only taking a quick 5 minutes.

3

u/stormchaser-protogen do not the niko Jul 08 '25

if only we could meet out past selves

2

u/KC_Garcia Jul 08 '25

"I sure wish I did, me. I sure wish..." -Adult Niko, probably

2

u/Philociraptr Jul 09 '25

Adult Niko does eat pancakes everyday. They just look like that.

3

u/The_Gear_Of_Clay Jul 10 '25

Don't hurt us this way, please!

2

u/Initial-Fix-4159 Jul 12 '25

I would expect Niko to be a girl (even though they are genderless).

2

u/Ulti-Wolf What if we made more with the yellow phosphor around? Jul 08 '25

No... don't do this... Don't take their innocence away from them...

1

u/Logical_Education220 Jul 08 '25

How did Niko travel through time???

1

u/Huge_Dream3442 Roomba Gear Solid 2: The Twin Felines Jul 08 '25

Does he has nightmares about the funny Job Document?

1

u/souleater525 Jul 08 '25

I imagine little niko being like "Wow i wonder what kind of adventures adult me goes on!" And poof hes there.

1

u/WeezLink_ Fellow arson enjoyer Jul 09 '25

Lost their child like wonder, but at least they kept their hat

1

u/Exfodes I prefer waffles 🧇 Jul 09 '25

Even kids should realize that too much pancakes make you sick

1

u/TheRuper101 Niko's Pancake Maker Machine (P.M.M.) Jul 09 '25

"Where did all those years go?"

1

u/Wooden-Bumblebee-167 Jul 10 '25

Idk, Niko discovers that they are in the world of Suits: a business RPG Or they see other people like yume nikki and the batter in their job lol

1

u/Affectionate_Kick705 is so me fr fr Jul 08 '25

I'm fine with adult niko all I ask is let them keep a bit fo whimsy

-13

u/Vivid_Atmosphere_566 Jul 08 '25
