Some would describe him as creepy while some describe him as intelligent. Both are true in their own ways, for this inhuman surgeon is a combination of many aspects. This inhuman creature may seem human at first, but his actions prove to certain beings that he isn't part of the species. He enjoys hearing screams, noises of suffering and there really isn't anything he doesn't like. Whether it be people disliking him or not being afraid of him, there's always a smile that seems to be glued to his face. The only thing that has ever upset this apple is the fact that his love left him for another human, making him who he is today. Of course, he tried to persuade her to come back with the help of two quotes: "You are what you eat." and "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." In the end, he became the cursed creature he is, but he doesn't regret anything. Apple-kun often carries his pair of scissors around, due to sudden job calls where he has to rush to the scene and fix the problem. This is also why the man always wears his lab coat everywhere, though he isn't quite fond of getting it dirty, for blood stains easily and he wouldn't want all that covering him. Overall, he's not the average 'normal' person you would find. Then again, it's not a bad thing... |
✂History:
It started back in his last year of high school, that one point in life where we meet that special person in our lives. For Apple-kun, it was his first time ever feeling this way for anyone. He didn't know what came over him, but seeing her made his heart skip a beat. Of course, the young boy only knew to watch from a distance, playing with his messy dark brown hair and fidgeting with his glasses. Ah yes, the days when he was still considered 'normal' by many human beings. The girl would often ask him from time to time for help when it came to biology class or calculus. Of course, he was more than happy to help.
This unrequited love lasted all the way until his second year in university. The typical nerd decided to become a surgeon and hopefully work for the hospital nearby while the girl of his dreams wished to become a teacher. However, she was soon dating another man who was also becoming a doctor. This factor struck the university student greatly, for he had never felt such pain in his entire life. Due to this, Apple-kun went seeking for answers, only to find two very quotes that caught his attention:

"You are what you eat."
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away."
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away."
Of course, being a very smart student, he enjoyed reading books. One could say that's how he found these quotes that will change his life forever. All the studying and work he had done can finally become to use. The next few weeks of his life were spent on trying to convince his lover to leave her doctor boyfriend and run away with him, which she rejected. Meanwhile, the student was also conducting experiments in the university lab. Using a few surgeon tools, he managed to make himself half human and half apple. It was painful, but he managed to merge both DNAs into his head/brain, causing his hair to turn a bright green with white highlights from the error that happened during this process. A bit like genetic mutation. Although his skin wasn't infected, his eyes turned green as well, enhancing his eyesight by just a bit. His brain felt strange yet more powerful (probably due to the sudden amount of sugar and nutrients from the apple).
When this operation was successful, he gathered his lab coat and his normal lab wear and headed out with a pair of scissors in his pocket.
Just as the girl and her boyfriend thought they were safe walking around on a peaceful night, the apple grabs them and stabs them both, making them scream and wail in pain. Apple-kun only chuckled, realizing he loved the sound. It gave him life. And so, he started cutting and sewing different parts together, collecting some just in case he needed them later. As the couple remained no more than just flesh and blood, the man slowly whispered his last words to her,

"I tried to tell you that an apple can keep the doctor away, but you wouldn't listen. I tried to tell you to remember the apple but you didn't. And that's why the doctor was back."
The police couldn't find the murderer and could only conclude a creature with extremely sharp teeth or claws had attacked them. The apple didn't really care, although he was quite sad that his white clothing got dirty. It took a while to wash but he didn't mind at all. It was nothing like the pain he went through.
Some may disagree with this man or maybe even hate him for what he did, but humans are interesting creatures and everything about them can make him smile.
Apple-kun soon got a job as a black market surgeon, occasionally killing unnecessary beings and selling them. There wasn't anything he hated, and that didn't bother him at all.

It started off as an excuse... a way to let all my anger and hatred out by drawing bloody scenes with this randomly designed character. It made me smile, laugh and realize that I enjoy drawing these yanderes and all this gore. I realized I kept drawing this design... over and over again, it wouldn't stop. I didn't want him to be an official OC of mine, due to the fact that all my main OCs reflect a part of my twisted personality... And so did he.
But then I figured, why hide it? If I can't express how I feel deep inside, then I can draw it out and let that hatred explode into a sick laughter. If anyone... anyone... told me to 'act' or 'scare' somebody for a while... if it would benefit the majority... if it was my job... then I would unleash how I truly feel about this wicked world on the inside.
Butttttt so far that only happened once and I simply said it was my 'acting skills' anddd I don't really hate people, humans are just interesting creatures with interesting minds *v* I don't have any intentions on killing anyone nor do I have any intentions of harming anyone. If I ever do, I can express it through drawing, no need for actual violence ;v; This 'yandere' side of me doesn't happen a lot so don't worry *v* There will come a time when an artists feels amazing when they draw 'evil' things... and I'm currently in that phase ;7;

✂How did you design him?
Well, I guess one day at school, I felt a bit weird I guess... I bit evil and I guess that was the start of my 'drawing evil things makes me feel amazing' phase. My friend only chuckled at my behaviour as she watched me draw fruit personifications (we were obsessed with personifications... we even made instrument personifications). The first one I made was Cherry-kun. He was on the back of a worksheet and he was just a simple sketch. I remember him wearing a suit of some sort? I also have this 'blood pen' that I found in my pencil case and I use it to draw blood... It's a typical ink pen but it was very easy to draw blood with it. So beside Cherry-kun, I wrote in bloody letters: "You are what you eat." That's how my friend and I started coming with cool horror backstories for this fruit guy. Although Cherry-kun's story was a bit weird and it didn't flow well... The second one I created was Apple-kun. Being the amazing writer my friend was, she reads a lot of books and stuff (unlike me) and told me a quote, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Being the 'creative' thinker I was (pfft I don't think I am), with the help of my friend, we both created a cool backstory for this guy... it's the story you can read above... I was quite proud and decided to draw more yandere fruit people (they were all guys I'm so sorry). |
Eventually... I had 3 full pages of sketches and designs with bloody quotes. My classmates would look at me with different expressions. I think my favourite story would have to be Apple-kun's and Grape-kun's I guess... Grape-kun's quote was "Life is too short to drink bad wine." which was a French quote and it really touched me *-* There was also an Orange-kun where his quote was something about how the world is like an orange... if we all go grabbing at it at once, we'll only get the... forgot what it was but my friend remembers it ovo His story was that he was extremely popular but everyone would eventually fight for him and he disliked that a lot... so he 'sliced' them all up into pieces. Either that or he sliced himself to share with everyone... pffft too much yandere
In the end, many ask why I chose Apple-kun... It was fairly simple. When I designed these fruit people, I already had Monokuro, Lumi and Min as my OCs... and I wasn't looking for more. I tried to find someone out of all the fruits that didn't have a similar colour palette as my other OCs. I had realized that I have no 'green' colour in my pile of OCs so I picked Apple-kun because apples are green... right? Sure grapes are green but would you make green wine? I've only heard of red wine *-* But either way, I was also watching Owari no Seraph at the time so I was extremely tempted to make him an Owari no Seraph OC... but I didn't know if I should make him a vampire or not... His personality is also too similar to one of the vampires (if not, all... except for Mika). After struggling in class and not paying attention to presentations, I gave him some Owari no Seraph features that I liked: the gloves, the boots and the long jacket. If was after many struggles of deciding his colour scheme, I came to a conclusion of his final design.
