Continue my rambling about Anti-Entropy Kindergarten :P

Look who's here. The second part of my thread talk about Anti-Entropy kids is finally done. Now I'm going to add a third horseman of the apocalypse and talk a little bit about everything.

As I've said before, this AU hasn't a particular timeline, but it took place long after The Disaster. In times when Anti-Entropy and it's influence on the world map was mostly stabilised, the organization was running like a clockwork, there was no sign of the real threat... at least for now.

So without any further adieu, the most awaited kid and spontaneous kid of Anti-Entropy crew:

🔵 Wilhelm Joyce Einstein Born: April 1st Height (18 y.o.): 171 cm / 5'7'' Honkai Adaptability: Classified

Let's start from the beginning. Welt Joyce and Einstein never really hide the fact that they would love to have a family. As soon as the tides sease, they played their wedding and started to dive in questions more personal, sharing their usual duties with the other co-workers.

On one side, Welt got into topics of healthcare and education system, obviously under impression of Lieserl's childhood problems with school and personal experience with Joachim's education. On other side we had Einstein, who was occupied with her own researches and with modernising her «works space» at home... just in case.

They were preparing to everything at this point, but one thing no one expected was that kid «choose to appear» right at the noon of April 1st. Neither sooner, nor later. That day was a little bit more insane than everyone thought it would be, but eventually they remember it with a good laugh. Especially Wilhelm and Lieserl («Am I a joke for you? – Of course! The best one I've got»)

🔵: Intelligent and surprisingly easygoing, Wilhelm gives an impression of never bothered, confident person. People loves to say that he's a mother's son and Wilhelm usually treats it as a praise. Surely, he's heavily interested in exact sciences too, but not the less in law. He's a smooth talker, even better listener and - as result - despite his «soft» apparence, he's always ready to take a stand, easily hyping people up. Some says he has a main character syndrome, he's faker and praise-seeker. Are they wrong? Well. Long before, parents instilled him with curiosity, sympathy and sence of justice. Now, deep inside Wilhelm only wants to make them proud. He's confident, because he knows he's able to do so. He's supportive, because some people aren't that confident in themselves. He's faker, but only in context that he hides his real fears in the darkest corner... and god, he's much more as his dad than people think he is.

Fun Fact: Wilhelm actually has two names. Yes, his second name indeed is Carl as a tribute to Carl Gustav, but he rarely tells the others about this, usually introducing himself by his first name and both parents surnames.

🔵: Wavy light blue «mom's» hair, light blue «dad's» eyes... in early childhood he was mostly indistinguishable from a doll. For quite a while he had a long hair and messy outfits, but right before the high school he started to wear more official-esque clothes and even asked to cut his hair to shoulder length... for some reason. And he keeps this style since then. He also seems to inherit his dad's cold-intolerance, keeping to prefer many-layers outfits to any others.

Here's some examples of style's changes. it's funny how with twins I easily found pictures for hair, eyes and outfits, but here... yeah.

About dynamics: as expected, he's oldest in the junior trio, four-five years older than twins. Fortunately no one made him their nanny and this kinda helped their relationships – twins, being a little brats, treated Wilhelm as equal. Wilhelm, from his part, cared about them in his own ways.

Yet times has passed. With Grace they always keep a great relationships. Non-conflicts yet very passionate over their goals, they made a nice team. Sometimes Grace gets irritated by Wilhelm's confidence, he gets confused by her unreasonable self-doubt, but this thing usually gets talked out. With Victor everything become much harder. Even tho they have each other in inner circle, recognising each other's merits, their believes and visions aren't coinciding... and it has a heavy consequences.

Even more Fun Facts!

As a honorably member of Anti-Entropy, he's got his first scientific degree in young age and he isn't planning to stop only on math and engineering, rather hopping from one scientific domain to another («Scientist isn't a profession, it's a lifestyle»)

As everyone, Wilhelm have a nicknames. Parents loves to call him some cosmic inspired things like Starfire, Grace and Victor gave him a codename, Pegasus, inspired by their own (Phoenix and Salamander)

Wilhelm addresses olders in polite/official way (Professor Planck, Miss Edison etc); to other youngers he uses names or... also official forms. Depending on mood/situation.

Wilhelm is natively bilingual, German and English. He's a great speaker, but twins like to assume that he often thinks on German, because «this is the only explanation» to his way of saying certain things.

You might remember that they also have two dogs: Bingo and Eureka. Welt and Ein brought them at home as puppies when Wilhelm was in the middle school. They still are his best friends.

That's also can be count as fun fact, but it isn't that fun to be honest: how much honkai-powers Wilhelm actually inherited is still unknown. No one could even allow themselves to think about any type of tests on this kid. So every information about Wilhelm connect to honkai is classified... for now.

That's all for now! It took two months to get at least this part finished, so stay tuned for more yapping from me and thanks in advance. See y'all!

Choose your morning warrior!

[owensgrumpyoranges]

heck yeah

I want to make a Discord server for Anti-Entropy enjoyers...

I'm also dying from the lack of official content, hi

[owensgrumpyoranges]

Once in a month I'm relistening my playlist from the beginning and today Amalee's cover on «Red Like Roses - Part II» destroyed me once more.

I recommend to listen a full song, but away from that I simply love the fact that first two verses are literally call-and-response... which my brain turned into einjoyce / corelia brainrot. Here's some bits so you could understand my yap:

1) I wasn't dreaming when they told me you were gone I was wide awake and feeling that they had to be wrong How could you leave me when you swore that you would stay? Now I'm stuck inside a nightmare every single effing day I know you didn't plan this You tried to do what's right But in the middle of this madness I'm the one you left to win this fight

2) Wish I could talk to you, if only for a minute Make you understand the reasons why I did it I tried so hard just to protect you but I failed to And in a prison of abandonment I've jailed you I never planned that I would leave you there alone I was sure that I would see you when I made it back home And all the times I swore that it would be okay Now I'm nothing but a liar and you're thrown into the fray I didn't have a choice, I did what I had to do I made a sacrifice but forced a bigger sacrifice on you

So once more I'm not going to finish my wips but crying over my pookies. Thanks for witnessing my another thread talk🩵

Quick heads-up, if the letter A disappears from my writing soon, it's because my keyboard is being a bitch, thanks

[owensgrumpyoranges]

Still one of my favourite ideas about the Herrschers from Current Era – especially some like Welt Joyce – is that yeah, you're a God-like being, capable to bend and snap the laws of physics, but it doesn't mean you won't have a backpain or tachycardia.

Sure, you're capable to disintegrate an entire city, but joke on you – flu has a different plans for today.

[owensgrumpyoranges]

I've loved you for a thousand years... I'll love you for a thousand more

[owensgrumpyoranges]

Wish me luck I'm exploring my old drafts trying to remember how I wrote early teen Ein

[owensgrumpyoranges]

I wrote this scene in an original draft of Fix You and loved it so much, but it just wouldn't fit in the final draft. So here it is; Carl and Ein being softies just before the wedding.

Consider it another Ein's birthday present and an EinJoyce wedding present

----

Carl’s smile melted as he turned to look at her. Tears came to his eyes. “Oh, Lieserl.”

She smiled, her dress swishing with her as she crossed to him. “What do you think?”

“You- you look gorgeous. Lieserl….” He hesitated to reach out, but rested a hand on her shoulder. “I- I never thought I- oh, Aeons, Lieserl.”

That broke her, and she rushed forward to hug him, all of Emma’s warnings and threats vanishing from her mind. Carl embraced her, squeezing her tightly.

“Carl,” she sniffled. “Oh, Carl, I-”

“There, Lieserl, it’s okay.” He held her close, hesitantly pressing a hand to the back of her head. Perhaps Emma had given him the same threats. Come to think of it, maybe that was the reason Welt wasn’t allowed to see her yet. “Oh, Lieserl, I can’t believe this day is finally here.” He moved back, cradling her face in his hand. “When did you grow up, little brat? You’re getting married, Lieserl!”

“Carl,” she warbled, hiding her face in his jacket.

He pulled her close, squeezing her against him. “I didn’t ever think when I met you that I would know you so long… so well. That I would see your wedding, and certainly not that I would get to be the one to- to-” He broke off.

“Carl,” Lieserl whispered, leaning back. “I love you… Dad.”

He choked, then pulled her into a suffocating hug. He didn’t say anything, crying too hard to speak, and Lieserl hugged him silently, tucking her head into his neck. Emma’s soft voice finally made them break the hug.

“Sorry to interrupt, but it’s almost time….”

Carl stepped back, clearing his throat. “Right. Right… do you have tissues, Emma?”

She smiled, handing each of them a tissue before moving to fix Lieserl’s hair. Carl blew his nose, then smiled at her.

“I’ll see you at the end of the aisle, little brat.”

She smiled. “Yes, old man.”

Carl smiled at her, whispering a barely audible “I love you” before slipping out.

TERMINAL VELOCITY I screech as I fall from floor to ceiling and back again.

[owensgrumpyoranges]

Happy (late) Birthday to Eins <3

I swear inserting the link worked four days ago, but here we are.

[owensgrumpyoranges]

Happy Birthday, Ein!

[owensgrumpyoranges]

Ahhhh forgot it was today! And dang, her birthday is Pi day? (we used to celebrate this in my homeschool group, has truly always been a holiday to me)

I'm still holding on the idea than Anti-Entropy crew shares birthday with the real scientists. Especially in context of Lieserl A. Einstein, because March 14th is such a fun date... ciz it's literally 3.14. Who would guess that such a person would be born in the Day of Pi?

So yeah, say Happy Birthday to Ein😆🩵

[owensgrumpyoranges]

anywayyyyyyy

Welt has to wait, but here's this~
