My personal view of the Powerpuff Girls headcanon/fanfiction idea of the Rowdyruff Boys converting from villains to heroes. Inspired by talking2mazelf and his upcoming fanfiction project Brotherhood, with inspiration also from HMontes that uses the Ruffs from Season 1 by Craig McCracken instead of Season 5+ Ruffs by Randy Myers (I didn't like them that way). Though in my views and alterations with the classic Ruffs (appearance and characteristics prior to season 5), they are not forced into submission by the Puffs, it was THEIR choice after a freak occurrence that made them change their minds and hearts (to the disapproval and anger of their evil fathers)...

BTW, any Halo buffs out there notice something familiar here? *Wink wink* *Nudge nudge*

[The Puffs and Ruffs in the picture were traced off of another PPGxRRB fan art that I cannot find at all online. The original pictures I used does show them holding hands like this, but they were wearing slightly different colored clothes. I cannot find the originals anymore, any legit info about the original photos (where they are and who made them) would be greatly appreciated, the only credit I deserve is the alteration and collaboration efforts and not the whole thing!]

Original Series by Craig McCracken. Fan art by Escarietson. Brotherhood fanfic by talking2mazelf. Also inspired by HMontes.

The very first incarnation of my Rowdyruff Boys redemption fanfiction in where how the boys changed and gave up evil.

Later on I found out who the artist was that was responsible for the designs of the Puffs and Ruffs, DeewBi. He was on DeviantArt once but was deactivated long before I join DA. Much later on I found some of his stuff that survived and preserved them. But I cannot reuse everything he did, I have to be original...

He along with @MachineGunMac11 (who was once known as talking2mazelf, geekzilla2, and also once known as RoboticRhaspody) were also an inspiration to me when it came to Powerpuff Girls fan art. Yet I outright disagreed with the aspect of forcing the Rowdyruff Boys out of evil via a peace treaty given how it basically was designed to force the boys to give up evil or face the death penalty via cryopreservation (how is THAT even legal or fair, let alone moral when it comes to children?!), so I went with the "by accident" aspect since it is a more proper parallel to the Girls that also doesn't give them too much power or authority over anyone else, let alone their own kind given how there are instances in where the Powerpuff Girls themselves cannot be trusted with power or authority, if not abused it.
