FAWFUIGI AU

Who is Fawfuigi?

Fawfuigi is Luigi under the effects of Fawful's fawfulization. Consider him like entirely different person while Luigi watches from the back of his own head. Fawfuigi's much more bold and mischevious (though he has a bit of a cowardly side). He causes minor inconvienences across the Mushroom Kingdom in an absolute pranking spree while he fails to find the subject of his mission.

What is this AU?

This AU (Alternative Universe) is basically a version of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story where, on the night before the Blorbs epidemic took full swing, Fawful fawfulized Luigi. After all, what would be a bigger middle finger to Mario than fawfulizing his own brother? The Toads and Mario assume (to great concern) that Luigi has simply gone missing, but before Mario finds out the truth, he's swallowed with the rest of the major figures of Toad Town by Bowser.

What is the bug Fawful pricks Luigi with?

The bug is something I made up a few years ago as an invention of Fawful's. It causes fawfulization by injecting whoever's pricked with malicious genetic code (and a parasite). The bug device is mostly robotic but also appears a little organic, as it is meant to resemble Fawflants and Fawfloppers. It converts the code in the USB attached to it into genetic code that is then injected into the host. The code (& parasite) hijack the brain and instructs the body to reform itself to resemble Fawful. There is no concrete canon explanation for how Fawfulization is actually done, so I had came up with this.

Why Fawfuigi?

Fawfuigi was created for various purposes. I wanted to imagine how a Mario brother being fawfulized could affect the plot of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. I wanted to improve at drawing Luigi. I also wanted to create a comical sense of dissonance with the brooding "Animal Inside of Me" juxtaposed onto drawings of Fawfuigi up to his antics. Lastly, I wanted to expand the relevance of fawfulization to the game's story.
