#Bad Ending AU

[the-depths-au]

Zelda never returns after the battle with the Demon King. Link is determined to bring her back, no matter what it takes or where it takes him. So when the Light Dragon starts to dive into the Depths, which have remained dark and uncharted since the Gloom faded away, he prepares to descend as well.

the depths

A post-totk “bad” ending au

Rated M: CW for mature themes, violence and blood.

beta readers on this chapter: @zeldaelmo and @cooking-with-hailstones 💕

chapter 11

Preview:

Link stops mid rotation and flits his eyes to Master Sword on the floor in front of the Yiga. Another pause, though the air between them is electrified this time. The Yiga swallows loud enough that Link can hear it.

“That weapon is what almost killed you. It’s heavy,” they say carefully. Quietly. As if the sword can hear them, too.

If only they knew the half of it.

Read the rest in Ao3!

An au where fiddleford “saves” ford before he can complete the portal and renders him a husk of the person he used to be

This hurts me more than it hurts you ❤️

[jellyskink]

Does your Bill have any plans yet for what to do when Ford’s mortality runs out?

I drew this on my phone during puppy class for my own dog, lol

"I said, do you think you'll kill for me one day? Yes, of course I will, my darling."

HEY GUYS- remember my au bad ending with Mizu? well, I just got this commission and I'm screaminGGG-! I've been going on about two months for it lol but honestly I've loved the result completely.

Hasegawa looks so delicately….. My god, I'm really fascinated by how they both look. <3

Time to put it to trial!

(Remember, this will change the course of the bad ending.)

And let me know in the comments what argument you think Hive/Bumblebee would use to try and talk Megatron into letting Starscream live!

What if Yugo never had a growth spurt because of Toross?

It’s strange to admit, but it needs to be said: Yugo’s growth would not have happened if his mother hadn’t returned. So if there's no eliatrope mommy, there's no toross going after Yugo's ass. Toross would never have been able to escape his prison if Nora hadn’t come along to try to rescue her mother.

Like think about the remarkable timing of witnessing this woman abruptly enter without any warning. She could have returned to the Inglorium hundreds or even thousands of years later.

I'm not saying it's impossible that she came back so soon. I'm just saying that there was also a high possibility that she couldn't have come on time when Yugo needed her to get to Toross.

The odds were 50/50 really. She could've come back anytime.

So let's say, for this hypothetical situation, the Eliatrope goddess didn't arrive on time. Now what? Yugo and his group would've been...stuck??

None of the demigods would have known how to return. Not even Dathura could do so without Sadida's magic flute. Since the gods would not be present to detect their arrival, they wouldn’t be able to help them escape from their realm. This indicates that entering the Inglorium requires the use of an artifact belonging to a god, an otherworldly object like a mechasm's heart, a dofus, or simply being a god. Similarly, leaving the Inglorium necessitates using one of the same means mentioned for entry.

So like....they're fucked??

Not having the Eliatrope goddess to take them back with portals means they would officially be stuck there. Damn.

And since the Inglorium is the realm of the gods, everyone except Yugo and the other demigods will not age. Oropo wanted to include mortals like Arpagone, Ruel, and Flopin because he understood that once they took on the place of their corresponding gods in Inglorium, the realm would be able to completely halt their aging.

As if that wasn't enough, their only connection to the World of Twelve will be through the gods' library, which records the lives of all living mortals in real-time.

Chibi and Grougal will grow up without Yugo, Adamaï, and eventually Alibert. They will have to manage the inn by themselves.

Armand will rule the kingdom and have an heir with Aurora. He will come to resent Amalia for never returning to him and for not witnessing their father's death as he called for her.

Kamasutar Junior will grow old and die without ever seeing Ruel again, just like how Az and his family will never see Yugo.

Madagaskan would only have been able to find Cleophee. She would have learned about him but would also be just as confused and anxious about where her sister and family went.

Ogrest would feel confused and saddened that he would not see Elely and Flopin anymore, while Otomaï would try to comfort him, genuinely wondering where they could have all gone.

The island of Irene would be left unprotected for a long time without Coqueline, leaving Yrehn alone with the Elante.

Poo would take care of the percedal family's home. As much as he would wonder where they are, he won't have anywhere else to go to, so he'll have no choice but to stay there for who knows how long.

There would have been no traces of the Brotherhood, and no one would have known if they were even alive in the first place. The people would likely have turned them into an old myth by then.

The Brotherhood would have been aware of everything their loved ones were doing by reading each of their mortal books, but they would have been powerless to intervene.

Time would have taken its natural course, and the group would have built their own places in the realm while living in constant fear, confusion, and horror at the idea of not being able to return without any artifact.

When the Eliatrope goddess finally arrives, it will be too late for anyone to reunite with their loved ones in the World of Twelve. Everyone will have already passed away, except for Chibi and Grougal, who will most likely feel betrayed by Yugo and Adamaï.

Oough,, hear me out-

Bad Ending Bad Batch AU.

Bad Ending Batch? Bad² Batch? I swear I had a cooler name before but I forgot it-

Because I was thinking about like a Bad Endings AU for my ocs and then had an idea to make one for the Bad Batch as well.

Essentially,, it'd be like,, Imperial!Bad Batch - but also like,, okay hear me out:

Hunter:

Literally just Imperial!Hunter

Maybe in this AU at the end of S1 when they capture Hunter and bring him back to Kamino they mess with his chip and he becomes an operative

And oh BOY is he a very useful weapon for the Empire with his heightened senses and all of that

Echo:

In this AU Echo never made it out of the stasis chamber (oof)

Ended up stuck in there and at the end of the war, even if they didn't really need his strategies anymore, they decided to keep him

Then he becomes "The Algorithm" or something and they continue to seep information out of him that could help

Eventually they probably take him out of the chamber and use him as an operative as well since he was an ARC Trooper and therefore highly skilled

Like,, Winter Soldier-esque probably because they have to brainwash him or something since his chip probably doesn't work

Wrecker:

I mean,, we got a glimpse of what he'd be like in this AU in canon

And it's basically just that

This AU is "what if they never got Wrecker's chip out?" sort of deal

They pull a "he's too far gone" and for their safety bolt out of there, leaving Wrecker

Eventually he makes his way back to the Empire and starts to do work for them and is a fucking FORCE of nature

Like,, holy shit,,

Tech:

Return of CX-2

He'd be the last of his brothers to fall (lmao literally) into the hands of the Empire

Bad Batch Bad Ending AU is basically just,, Tech Lives AU but as CX-2

Probably gets paired with Crosshair a lot on missions and they are both forces to be reckoned with

Crosshair:

He's basically the same (as in like S1 and half of S2 Crosshair)

MAYBE there's the chance that he "gets better" but this is the Bad Endings AU so like,, psshh that doesn't happen

No they keep messing with his chip and he becomes worse

Loyal to the Empire to a fault would fucking die for them if the time came

Nothing you say or do will sway him

Omega:

Okay so like,, I'm thinking in this AU either she 1) ends up staying on Kamino and eventually starts to work in the science division of the Empire when she's a bit older (like Emerie) and then is subjected to experiments once they realize she's got a compatible M-Count

OR 2) she DOES leave with her brothers but then slowly loses them one by one to their chip/the Empire until she's all alone again and after failed attempts to save them she finds Boba instead and stays with him (and Bossk or Cad Bane or whoever) and becomes a bounty hunter like Boba

You could even have a 3rd option where you mush those two together - she escapes the Imperial facility and THEN finds Bossk and Boba or like,, idk one or the other of the first two

Might make designs for them later idk.

Feel free to add on any other ideas though!!

Lauren Bridges: When She finally kills Maria and her father

Lauren gets her father’s inheritance and she and her mother owns all of her father’s properties and get rich

Random AU I came up with where instead of that “Road Closed” thing in Gideon Rises, Soos ends up driving off the road and into a lake.

Soos and Dipper die, and Mabel survives (mostly because she was the only body recovered) but ends up blind due to her eyes getting pierced by broken glass upon impact. Mabel doesn’t remember what happened and tries to gain her memory back while Stan protects her from Gideon, her parents, and his grieving heart.

some silly horror au art for Halloween

Only really spent time on Kris lol

Short explanation of au ig, it's edgy but that's just Halloween:

The deltarune timeline gets fucked after several snowgraves and most of monster civilisation it destroyed.

Kris is literally just a puppet and cannot be killed as they're already pretty much a corpse

Susie is a wild beast with an uncontrollable hunger and anger

Noelle can't control her powers, isolating in an attempt to save anyone left after she froze almost everyone.

Demon Mugman: Mr. Devil? King Dice? Can we go out and hunt now? Please? Now?

Demon Cuphead: Yeah! You promised to take us huntin' today! So get up and take us now! C'mon! Up! GET UP!

King Dice: *Half Asleep* Your boys are awake.

Devil: *Grumbles* Before sunrise they're your boys.

Link swallows and leans his head back against the foundation of the platform. He hadn’t known what it was back then, but he found a Grand Poe five years ago. After the final confrontation with Master Kogha under Rito Village, the unique color of a flame atop the stone structure where they had fought caught his eye. Unlike the consistently blue flicker of standard Poe, the Grand Poe burned in a triforce of color: icy blue, poppy red, and where the two colors met, a thin line of brilliant green. It had been mesmerizing, pulling him closer and closer like a moth to flame until he could hear the pulse of the life it had once been in his ears.

More evil cultist Fiddleford ft. Stan who is working his butt off to take Fidds down.

To recap, this au centers around Fiddleford kidnapping and erasing Ford’s identity the very same night he sends the postcard to Stan. He is left unable to function and cannot take care of himself.

I imagine the turn this au would take is for Stan and Fiddleford to have a battle of wits type rivalry as Stan tries to gather proof that something is amiss with the whole situation and Fiddleford has to keep the brothers separated (while actively losing their mind). Bill will be involved.

Settled on “Blind Eye Ford Au” for the title because it’s vague enough to encapsulate all of my ideas.

Excited to share more!

[jellyskink]

C’mon Bill, Kibble? Really? He built a doomsday portal, at least shell out and get the fancy wet food. Or do one of those really complicated assortments of foodstuffs I see on my instareels. You know those videos of people making their dogs bowls of fucking raw meat and quail eggs and other proteins? Be a responsible Ford-Owner Cipher. /j

New trend in Facebook-! KDJHFG This is a scene for "Road to the dorado" ref-! i change a little bit the expression for Mizu,

[godofautism]

My HMS headcanons are so silly, but they also make the characters and lore that much more miserable for them, and I think it's perfect

Like yes queen you strive for the one goal you've truly desired all your existence only to finally understand at the end that there is no happy ending for you or the others

Soul desperately wants to fuse with the others because he's so tired of everything and just wants to become what they once were

But he knows deep down that it will never be the same

And his only options are to give up and let the infinite cycle flow by for eternity or accept fate's hand and create a new Whole

Or maybe it goes terribly wrong and they turn into an amalgamation of each other's worst traits

Also, this is a non-shipping headcanon. Please do not romanticize it or turn it into jashshipping
