Description Remember my rant a while back? That if I could start SSZ over I would done a few things differently? Like not make Cosmo a Mobian Monkey girl?

One of my earliest Cosmo concepts was closer to her alien nature, a shapeshifting alien that was to be chased by an intergalactic bounty hunter. She would assume the form of X Cosmo after seeing an anime on the freedom fighters' tv. I dunno how I got to current SSZ Cosmo after that. If that version of Cosmo (the monkey one) is to reappear in my future works, she'll be referred to as 'Cissnei' from now on since she is pretty much her own character now.

But back on the current design. First attempt at recreating Cosmo without the plant features was a pretty bare-bones designs. I recreated that design but added some features to still be closer to the original Cosmo. Like the gold bands remniscant of the sleeves, the red gems on top of her head resembling the flowers ect. She is also legless and instead can float. 

In this version she is no shapeshifter, but she is an empath. She senses emotions from other living being: Mobians, feral animals and even plants. She has control over these powers so she won't get overwhelmed by the emotions of every living thing around her. The gems on her chest and head serve to detect these emotions. however when weakened or around much extreme emotions around the same time she gets overwhelmed and can suffer a personality lapse (as seen in the picture below).

I think it is an improvement over my original idea but its too late to use since SSZ is already planned out completely and it would really interrupt the flow if I added something again. 

Oh well, maybe in a future project. 

Also, a few drawings of her being adorable! Everybody get some insulin

One question though: What's wrong with Plant Aliens?

Nothing. I just don't like plant aliens to be shipped with Mobains.

Agreed with that. But I feel making her more compatible to ship with Mobians takes away the whole "Plants versus Animal" concept the Metarex Arc was supposed to be.

If they wanted to do that, they shouldn't pair up a Mobian with the plant.

I prefer to keep the "Plants versus Animals" concept over a pairing.

Me too, but I wanted to make up for an earlier less succesful reimagining for Cosmo. So that's why I made this.

Ok then. Sounds good nonetheless. I was just being curious.

No, i'm not sure if I am going to use this cosmo at all.

Alright, then.

I have to say this is a large improvement. This Cosmo actually looks like an alternate design of the original character, and her body(?) looks like the Seedrian garb. Nice.

HHhhmmm... This is a mixed bag for me... This design is solid, but I like the Mobian Cosmo more... even if she is pretty much her own character now.

However this version of Cosmo does keep true to her alien nature and it does look better then her original plant-based design.

Thanks. 

Coming from you, a Cosmo fan, it means a lot to me.

Welcome.

I still will always prefer the original Cosmo. But if I had to choose between this Cosmo and Monkey Cosmo, I'd pick this Cosmo.
