#AXOLOTL NIKI MY BELOVED

[becauseplot]

dont mind me tripping and falling in here again. but i would also love to hear about botw au. legend of zelda au's my absolute beloved they have me running circles around my room. adrenaline shot straight to the heart nothing digs its claws in me quite like loz and i am so so interested to hear about it!! clingyduo doomed to save the world in every universe,,,, i'm invested already

thank you so much for humoring me, i love botw aus so much theyre aaaa!! aaAAAAAaaAaaAAa!!!!

so yeah this originally started bc an old friend of mine and i were talking and i forget who suggested it but we were like "hey wouldn't tommyinnit as link be so funny? because tommyinnit is like the exact opposite kind of feral-energy of botw link. loud and swears and uncontrollable and headstrong. hylia's most annoying hero." and things just devolved from there. it's fully a Crack Treated Seriously situation because i spent actual months working out lore n worldbuilding and whatnot fhdjskhfdk.

the fic is officially called Well, Excuuuuuuuse Me, Big Man: The BotW AU No One Asked For (or WEMBM for short)

basic layout (as far as i went with it anyway):

tommy more-or-less follows the order of what you're "supposed" to do to to beat the game: plateau->kakariko->hateno->kakariko again->four main regions->master sword->ganon. of course there are a lot of detours and back-tracking and skipping around for hyjinx

main regions/inhabitants are replaced: Zora->Axols (axolotl "hybrids"), Gorons->Piglins, Rito->Elytrians, Gerudo->Enderians

each of the above races have their own cultures that are loosely based off of the game's original counterparts and some mcrp fanon + personal headcanons thrown in. they're customized to incorporate some (mild) minecraft elements!!

old champions: Mipha->Niki, Daruk->Technoblade, Rivali->Philza, Urbosa->Ran (based loosely off of tftsmp Ran, effectively an oc lmao????)

new champions: Sidon->Foolish (Niki's younger brother) and Jack (Niki's best friend), Yunobo->Drista, Teba->Wilbur, Riju->Ranboo

all of their personalities more-or-less remain intact (which is why the fact that i put The Old Man / King Rhoam as Schlatt so fucking funny)

divine beasts keep their names but the creatures change!! Ruta is a glow squid, Rudania is a blaze, Medoh is still a bird (LMAO i might change this because...), Naboris is a phantom

some scattered details

wilbur is both the "new" champion role AND kass' role!! he and tommy meet early on in his journey (at his first visit to Hateno) but tommy doesn't learn about wilbur's heritage (Philza was his great great great grandfather) until MUCH later. they run into each other a lot during their travels.

wilbur also has a hardcore crush on an axol warrior named sally, which tommy teases and embarrasses him relentlessly for

tubbo (zelda-role) keeps zelda's arc of not being able to develop powers. the key difference is that tommy and tubbo are friends before the calamity business starts to get serious, and tubbo's frustration drives a wedge between them

(angst time: clingy duo has a Big Fight during that one sheikah slate Memory on the palace tower bridge, and they never get the chance to apologize to each other before it all goes to shit and tommy dies sacrificing himself to save tubbo.)

techno and phil are old friends from when they'd do colosseum fights together. they haven't talked much for a few years before becoming champions, both too busy with their respective duties at home, but the moment they realize they've both been recruited well, they're inseparable

windbombing, bullet-time bouncing, and shield clipping are canon. don't question it.

champion ran is a dick (think revali) and the only one there they respect is niki because they underestimated her and then she proceeded to floor them during a sparring session (and she didn't even threaten them with a water based attack, it was all skill)

awesamdude (most people call him "sam", he's ranboo's personal guard) has a half brother named awesamnook (most people call him "nook" or "samnook"). he's the Beedle-role and he talks in all caps like an npc ("HELLO TRAVELER." "Why are you shouting---" "HAVE A LOOK AT MY WARES." "Okay---")

bad runs the yiga-equivalent egg cult that, instead of disguising themselves as travelers, simply uses sprouts of blood-red flowers with a toxic pollen to mind-control bystanders into attacking tommy (yikes)

have some highlights from the few chapters i've written of tommy on the great plateau (yes, the entire google doc is written in comic sans)

tommy immediately sassing tubbo's disembodied voice:

tommy is 7 feet from the cave and is shoving things in his mouth:

(I should also mention he has a pet beetle in his pocket named Sir Legs)

tommy has a grudge against the sheikah pedestals, it's a whole arc on the plateau as he slowly comes to love and appreciate the pedestals and what they do for him:

old man J vs tommy's unwavering optimism(bullheadedness):

tommy vs disembodied voices:

tommy vs the first shrine:

tommy meets a monk:

pulling a direct line from philza's botw playthrough for this one:

me when i fast travel:

The loading screen says: "Leaving Comments: Leaving comments on a fic is a great way to make a writer go :D and give them the motivation they need to continue their bullshittery."

also some chapter titles:

Bad MCC idea: MCC but it’s only Grid Runner and Buildmart. 

Grid Runner is 100% redstone speedbuild challenges. The final challenge is to make a redstone machine Grian can’t break. The judges are Mumbo Jumbo and Docm’s Hivemind. 

Buildmart but each team member have to do megabase and/or terraform a whole mountain. Scar and Bdubs will be the judges. Extra point if you leave out a chest monster. Or a bed. 

There is one game for Battle Box but instead of battling you have to recreate a battle scene using the armor stand book. Zombie Cleo will judge you, harshly. Joe Hills is there for her moral support. (Idea from my beloved @/ivi-prism)

Actually there is another Battle Box but only strat allowed is the Simmers strat. Every team get wool’d immediately when they face against the Simmers. 

Sand of Time and Survival Games are there to honor Hbomb and also Blue Bats 9. 

Instead of Dodgeball the top teams have to compete to see who sort out a chest monster the fastest.  

Gonna make teams for this bc why not haha xD 

Red Rabbits: Dream, George, Sapnap, BBH

Yellow Yaks: Captain Sparklez, Punz, Ponk, Iskall

Orange Ocelots: Grian, Pete, Wilbur Soot, Philza

Lime Lammas:  Oli, Jimmy, fWhip, Shubble

quick notes:

aimsey, eryn, jack, and tommy were all made in the same lab by the same doctors (jack was 004, tommy was 006, eryn was 007, and aimsey was 008)

if someone is listed as being 1/2 something etc, that means they are, in the most literal sense, 1/2 that. for example: techno is 1/2 piglin and 1/2 pig, meaning one parent was a piglin and the other was a pig. literally.

if someone is listed as a hybrid of two creatures, it means they are mostly human (normally) with certain non human parts. for example karl: he’s a human/mouse hybrid, meaning he is fully human, except for mouse ears and tails

if someone is listed as being a humanoid creature, it means they are just an animal that looks humanoid (stands on two legs, has neck, has two arms, etc etc). for example puffy: she’s a humanoid sheep, meaning she is sheep that has evolved to look human

there are three types of shapeshifters: 

full shapeshifters (can fully change and alter their appearance to anything at will. only full gods have this type of shapeshifting)

appearance shifters (can change parts of their appearance at will, but mostly stuck to minor alterations. for example quackity: he’s a duck/human hybrid, so he’s human with certain duck features. he can shapeshift, but he can’t become anything that wouldn’t make sense for a duck/human hybrid (eg he cant give himself horns, or suddenly grow taller))

mimics (start as normal humans, but will copy (or mimic) other people’s appearances. for example tubbo: has ram horns, pig legs, and endermen horns)

here are the types of demons i have

when the nether was first created (by drista), certain humans got trapped inside with no portal, and over time (like 1000 years) evolved into demons. original demons are very reminiscent of humans, just with horns, tail, and different skin tones (usually more red/purple)

after a while, the nether itself began to evolve and develop it’s own ecosystems and biomes. as groups of demons moved throughout the nether, they adapted to the different biomes as such:

waste demons - live in nether waste. not much different from original demon. usually travellers or merchants. can move and live in any biome with little fuss. survivalists.

crimson gold demons - live in crimson forest. much larger and stronger. big pig-like tusks. live around piglins, but don’t usually interact with them (usually fight). hunters and fighters. 

twisters - live in warped forest. much taller and skinnier. have the most variety among themselves, with a wide range of different skin, hair, and eye colour, and various horn/tail types. live peacefully around the endermen but usually don’t interact. ample food supply, so most pass time by playing games.

delta demons - live in basalt delta. largest type of demon. strong arms and legs, even with a strong tail that can be used to grab things (similar to a monkey’s tail). usually more focused on survival than anything.

valley demon - live in soulsand valley. built for going fast. long legs, and rather small feet. quite tall. eat bones and ghast meat. the only type of demon to not have naturally red skin; most of them have blue skin.

ok thats all. uhm. if you read all that. thank you :]

[spacedustmantis]

people who draw osmp!niki as an axolotl my beloved

[thespoonisvictory]

do you have any predictions for this mcc? :D

The teams:

My thoughts, in the placement range format:

Red Rabbits: 1-6, depending on how fast they get the new game and how Wilbur plays

Orange Ocelots: 1-5, solid team, could really pop off or disappoint tho

Yellow Yaks: 2-7, Ponk is new, but Hbomb is obviously very strong. George can't really carry but he's still la very good player and their team communication will be good

Lime Llamas: 3-9, Quig and Krtzyy are good, Jack and Niki aren't, love em but that's not the ratio you want

Green Guardians: 5-9, Sapnap got nerfed hard

Cyan Creepers: 4-7, Pete's cracked but he usually doesn't win with this type of team plus Spifey and Preston aren't great

Aqua Axolotls: 4-9, Fundy and Tubbo are good but not great, Ant and Five up are still very new, there's just now big powerhouse or duo on this team that makes them an immediate frontrunner

Blue Bats: 10, simmers my beloved

Purple Pandas: 1-5, very strong team, really gonna depend on if they pul through in pvp bc they should have team games no problem

Pink Parrots: 2-7, idk man, I think people really like this team but Dream doesn't have his typical strong partner and Bad and Finn aren't that strong

I decided to write for Cherry. I am dumb of ass.

[A picture of a small baby with orange hair. While she smiles brightly, her eyes closed, she seems to be trying to reach outside her crib, her hands open towards the camera.]

Me, 2 months old. Mãezinha says I was a rowdy baby. Apparently I broke a TV while crawling. She didn’t tell me how!! Meanie, bet it’s a big fat LIE.

[The same small child, on the ground. She looks a little older, and there’s a redness to her eyes that indicate she cried, her hands bruised as well. Her hair is disheveled and messed up.]

First time trying to hold a sword. It was too heavy for me; mãezinha says I wouldn’t stop crying until they handed me a wooden sword. Can’t imagine myself holding anything below a stone sword nowadays, not gonna lie about that one chief.

[A taller, more serious Cherry holding an iron sword. There’s many bandages and recent bruises on what’s visible of her body besides her peplos. She’s looking away from the camera, focused on what’s in front of her.]

Training session. Didn’t even get a scar! These newbs couldn’t even handle 6yo me. YOU MUST TRAIN 500 YEARS BEFORE THINKING OF BEATING ME, NEEEEEEERDS! Mãezinha also told me she wants to talk about my father. I never met him, so I don’t know what she wants to say…

[An even older Cherry, around the age of 16. Her confident smile contrasts the heavy armor she’s wearing, the dark bags under her eyes and the ugly bruise in her arm.]

They sent one of those big ugly things to fight me besides the men today. But no worries! Not like that’d get rid of me, anyway. Paizinho was watching closely, too. He might not know I’m his daughter, but mãezinha was right; maybe I’ll get him to notice me. Just more wins under my belt till then!

[Several pages are cut off, or otherwise ripped. The next time there’s any pictures, it’s the picture of a large house in the savanna, and in front of it, Cherry at the present. She has her hand on her hip, an axe resting on her shoulder, a tired smile on her lips.]

Tripod serves for something. New house! Hope the Império can’t find me like this. I didn’t travel 40.000 blocks for nothing, I mean. New beginnings, new me. Tchauzinho, mãe. It was a pleasure being your daughter. Bye, pai. It definitely wasn’t a pleasure being your daughter.

[A picture taken from a newspaper article. It shows Cherry, handcuffed and stuck inside of a box made of obsidian. She’s heavily bruised and her expression is solemn, almost resigned.]

I went back to take some of my old things with an invis. pot. They didn’t catch me. I stole this. My execution was pretty horrible. I didn’t die, sure, but my memory is fuzzy of that day. I just want to keep this as a reminder: Don’t trust people with that much power. If your own dad would turn against you for it, then who wouldn’t?

[A picture of a pink and white axolotl in a fish tank, above of which is a small bird. On the ground, next to the fish tank, is a sleeping Siamese kitten.]

Capt. Bonny, Ferris and Bolognese. Can’t believe I found them after scouting for the day. They’re all so CUUUUUUUUUTE! Look at Ferris’s beak! Cute lil’ bastard! And Bolognese’s lil’ nooooose! And Bonny looks so elegant swimming! Babies, all of ‘em. I’ll get them more friends soon. Maybe a doggo.

[An incredibly dark picture, only illuminated by a torch Cherry is holding. She’s covered in dirt and there’s rips in her clothing, but she smiles nevertheless, a shining picaxe in her visible hand.]

Visited the Greater Dream SMP today. They think I was just there to kick those Egg guys and take a peek at Technoblade? Hell nah! I was there to make sure where I could dig my tunnel to! Found the best coordinates to go to. The tunnel expansion proceeds! MOBILITY IS EVERYTHING!

[A picture of her dining room. Ranboo holds a book and quill at one end of the room, Ferris trying to bite his shoes while he attempts to write. Niki and Philza both are sat at the table, one eating a slice of cake, the other a plate of beans, rice, eggs and beef. Technoblade, seemingly mid-talk, is sat across from where Cherry presumably is.]

They came for me. The sellout tactics have worked better than I imagined. As warriors and people who hates authority figures, I think we’re doing well. As two people with sellout timers set, I think we’re doing even greater.

[A picture of Technoblade, looking away from the camera, searching through shelves and chests with a confused expression. His crown is nowhere to be seen.]

he doesn’t know LMAAAAAAAAAAO

[Cherry, wearing both Techno’s crown and a paper mask resembling a pig, drawn extremely childishly and cutesy. She keeps her hand under her chin, while the other holds a sword.]

HEEEEEEH!? SUBSCRIBE TO TECHNOBLADE HEH POTATOES HEH AUDIENCE RETENTION HEH BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD HEH BELLS MYTHOLOGHY I AM VERY SMART

[A picture of Cherry’s arm, being bandaged by presumably Ranboo, with his hands holding her arm and the bandage.]

He knows now. OUCHIE.

I LOVE THIS CHERRY MY BELOVED

[nho-jungle]
