Louessa is the family ship between Louisa Elliott and Tessa Elliott from the Murder Drones fandom.
Canon[]
The two have a very bitter and abusive relationship that borders on Tessa being outright afraid and wary of her mother, but not enough so to not disobey her if doing the right thing. Louisa and her daughter are very different in means of personality and overall character. Louisa is easily described as an antagonistic woman who is very opinionated and disrespectful to those she dehumanizes. Tessa in contrast is very bubbly and kind to all life, including the artificial intelligence, Worker Drones. This is what easily erupts conflict between her and her mother.
Home is where their relationship is clearly established and discovered. As Tessa is conversing with N regarding something serious, Louisa angrily strides in to scold her daughter. Upon seeing her mother, Tessa immediately tenses up and goes from open to nervous. Louisa describes her drone friends as "dumpster pets" and how they won't be seen attending the gala. Any attempt at Tessa talking back resulted in her reluctantly keeping her mouth shut.
Cyn steps in against Louisa instead, and because of this, N (who took the blame for Cyn's rebellious behavior) and Tessa, oddly enough, are punished instead, supposedly for being suspected to be the influence behind Cyn's attitude. Whilst N is left chained outside in the rain, Tessa is chained to the floor of her room. Cyn bunks with her, unrestricted and toying with dolls. Tessa manages to escape with the assistance of J to pursue the rogue Cyn, who had left the room to ensue her massacre on the gala. After surpassing many obstacles, Tessa and J burst through the gala, gun in hand, and ready to fire at Cyn.
Instead of worrying for themselves and their daughter, both Louisa and her husband, James Elliott, comment on her appearance and how she should hold the gun "less cool". They're both tossed recklessly to the side by Cyn before they could muster more sentences. Despite the weak efforts of Tessa, her, Louisa, James, and humankind are eventually eviscerated and went extinct.
Fanon[]
The ship between Tessa and her mother is not one appreciated or admired by the fanbase. Because of Louisa's extremely abusive and downright dehumanizing punishments towards her daughter, it's to be expected. When Tessa has been implicated to be cutting herself, fans naturally tied to that to the child abuse she receives. With recent events regarding Cyn, the Absolute Sover, Disassembly Drones, and Cyn's grotesque transformation (wearing kid Tessa's skin), viewers surmised that human parts were reused for Disassembly Drones, explaining their organic nature.
With this theory it is possible that Louisa and Tessa's innards are combined to help another being thrive.
