#Caz writes stuff

[fisheadz]

" Despite the bittersweet note they left Innes and Deckend on, things were going great. Perfect, even. They’ve been driving for about ten hours now, and Caz’s spirits were rising with each uninterrupted minute that passed.

And so, he found himself feeling talkative. Whenever they got rare moments of rest like this, he and Roy would chat for hours about whatever came to mind, to avoid thinking about the bad things that also came to mind. It had been comforting, finding the littlest sense of normalcy in the chaos. And even with Roy long gone, and Caz having accepted that by now, he still tried to cling to the memory.

(Suze had hated him for it, but he couldn’t help but hold onto the past. How could he just let go? Of the memories, good and bad? Of the blood on his hands, both because of himself and because of his failures? How could he ever remake himself without what happened always taking up his thoughts, staining the back of his mind?

Although, he was pretty sure that most of her anger stemmed from being unable to forget it all, herself.

Either way, she was gone, and he would never see her again if he didn’t go through with this, if he didn’t tolerate Billy for a while longer.) "

———

More SWTC! Deviating from chronological order a bit, now, but I NEEDED to write more about this AU, and doing that in the correct order of events would involve action, and I don’t wanna do action rn.

And, as always, it will involve more Caz being a Billy Bully. As always.

[endawna]

REFER HERE . act 3 conclusion to his 'personal' quest. sort of. bal reclaiming the rite would involve ascending pax. thereby making PAX a vampire ascendant instead of caz or astar..ion. which, would only deepen mol..ag’s hold on him and bring his body all that closer to becoming a vessel / conduit for bal to cross over into the mortal plane with. not only is the tadcrew saving pax and all those spawn, but the world from another being bent on death and domination. before the crew sets out to deal with caz, there will be a little camp event involving pax where he’ll mention feeling strange but believes it to be the lingering necrotic energy he absorbed while in the shadowlands ( this will be important later ) compounded by being a tad overwhelmed by the hustle & bustle of the city as he has not been in one for some number of years. he can be questioned further and if a perception check is passed, the pc can notice he’s nervous about something. if persuaded, he’ll admit the events at the mausoleum are weighing on his mind. yet, he’ll seem hopeful it is not possible outside of the shadowlands despite the absorption of necrotic energy. if asked if he’s still fit to fight, he’ll assure them he is and it’s really nothing to concern themselves over. if, however, the pc tells him to sit this one out and rest, he’ll agree and say it might be for the best.

if he is brought along, after defeating caz, pax will cry out and fall to the ground as he holds his head. mo..lag wields a form of mind magic: he intrudes upon the minds of mortals as a form of torture. it is an invasive, agonizing experience. by forcing his way into a mortal's mind, he can show them horrific visions. he does this in an attempt to make pax more susceptible to possession; break his will. this together with using his influence over necrotic energies, bal is able to take over the knight's body. if going with the left at camp choice, pax will show up right after defeating caz but not before the crew can pull him out of his coffin. the dawning realization something is wrong with him; his eyes. the light in them is void. there will be little time to react before pax starts attacking the party. a voice not quite his own begins thanking them for returning his rite to him. they will remember it as mol..ag’s when he possessed pax at the thorm mausoleum. the tadcrew can either try to kill pax, knock him out or try to survive 9 turns against him like with hal..sin’s portal.

note: he has the standard vampire powers of being rather resistant to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage and is unaffected or barely harmed by necrotic magics, resistant to cold and lightning, and completely unaffected by psionics and paralysis. in addition to this, they'd have to overcome his regeneration by using holy water, any spells that produce sunlight or deals radiant damage. creating water and having it act as running water would deal acid damage and debuff him slightly. though, he is more resistant to sunlight than standard vampires. he'd be able to manipulate / pull the blood out of an opponent from a distance sparingly, try to dominate them with his gaze, slam, punch, rend, bite, teleport in mist or as a swarm of bats, turn invisible, thrall person or use his skills as an eldritch knight [ gestures vaguely]. action surge, eldritch strike, weapon bond, war magic, shatter, scorching ray, shocking grasp, thunder wave, magic missile, misty step, shield, booming blade ( need to look into him game wise ).

during the entire fight, pax will be trying to resist mol..ag and regain control of his body. he'll occasionally receive a dazed condition and won't attack or will miss them. apologies can be heard as he strains to speak to the party; apologizing for attacking them. he does not wish to hurt them, he's trying to fight. resist. mol..ag will retort by calling him weak or a worm. as pax is addressing his friends, he'll also invoke a divine each round starting with sten..darr preserve me. if the party is able to survive the 9 rounds, it ends with pax invoking akat..osh and then addressing them all by going divines ! purge this foul darkness ! but not before asking his friends for forgiveness ( or directly going forgive me, cor meum. my heart, forgive me. if romanced ). his body is lifted into the air and erupts in a blinding, all consuming light. as quickly as it came, the light will recede and he’ll drop to the floor while smoke wafts from skin. charred and burned , but otherwise seems to be whole. an outcome he did not expect. he believed he would perish when he invoked the divine spirits. leave naught but ash , purging all of mol..ag corrupting presence.

when approaching his body , they can attempt to shake him awake. it will not garner a response. the pc can then decide to do nothing or cut their palm to allow a few drops of blood to fall into his mouth. doing so stirs him to a semiconscious state and heals a few wounds present on his body. propping him up and offering him a wrist to bite will be met with meek reluctance. if they insist, he’ll bite only briefly and abstains further as he does not trust himself not to take too much in his current state. he’ll use what strength it game him to assist them. otherwise, the party has to deal with caz in his coffin by themselves. during the fight with pax, caz was able to recover some of his health but will be much easier to defeat. IF they wake pax up via blood, despite his still injured state and experience with mol..ag, he'll use his vampire lord form to help end caza..dor one final time. collapsing from exhaustion not long after the battle ends and will not wake again until a day has passed. the tadcrew will have to carry his body out of the palace either way. when he wakes, pax thanks them for helping him and laments on his inability to resist. if questioned on the possibility of mol..ag returning, pax will admit he will but not for a long while. for once, he feels....unburdened. that not all is entirely lost, perhaps. maybe there is some hope for him? at least it was a small consolation his gods answered his pleas. while they could not remove the taint entirely, they were able to temporarily banish bal when his power waned from the strain controlling pax placed on his reach & influence in fae..run. if asked about mol..ag reclaiming the rite, an answer will not be given. he is uncertain. regardless, he'll be notably....happier, but attention quickly turns to defeating the elder brain.

ANOTHER THING TO NOTE: if they manage to kill pax, that’s that. he’s permanently removed as a party member. his body turns to ash. mol..ag will not appear in camp to offer pax’s resurrection for a price. withers will be unable to resurrect him. if they defeat ( KO ) but don’t kill, mol..ag will be unable to maintain his possession of pax. he will be too weak to extend his reach pass the watch of the faerunian gods. the prince will slink back to his domain.

[twistedpartywolf]

Thinking of making a Still Wakes the Deep AU for all my Caz x Rennick people out there.

The idea I had was they don’t wake up the monster and Caz is sent to the mainland where he is arrested and thrown in jail after the trial. He gets bailed out by Suze, Roy, and a couple others. However as soon as he is out, Suze serves him with divorce papers and due to his criminal background, Suze gets full custody. Roy goes low or no contact because he wants to look after Maidie and Cait. Caz resorts to drinking when he finds a familiar face at a bar. Davey Rennick.

Caz nearly has a repeat of what he did to Billy with Rennick since the old fud was pissing him off. But Rennick calms the sober man down. The two get to talking and strangely become friends. After many months, the two catch feelings for each other. Caz would be the first to confess and is shocked when Rennick has the same feelings. This leads to Caz, after more months of dating, moving in with Rennick and feeling happy again.

Should I write this and post it on here? It’ll be more so headcannons, how it all begins, and so on. There will be nsfw and kinky stuff, but I WILL put a warning like I do with my Infected Ensconce series.

Also if yall have ideas for this, don’t be afraid to message me or comment.

[ensinia-internetstranger]

Hi there hihihihi I infected the SWTD oc I made literally yesterday (Spoilers if you haven't seen it)

You guys remember Weber right? Ofc you do I made her yesterday, and now I've infected herr To kinda explain what I got goin on here. She hangs out with Caz from when he wakes up after nearly drowning (watching over him to make sure he doesn't die (that's literally her job) and then sticking with him to be sure he's alright), to after they find Roy. She sticks with Roy after that and upon Roy stating he needs his insulin she goes to get it for him. After or during (I don't remember a lot of the second half of the game) the whole electricity issue and the getting a helicopter crashed into him Caz gets a call from Weber that's like "Heyyy uhhh, I got the stuff on me. Can you grab Roy's insulin? I've ran elsewhere so the area's safe now but don't come to save me I beg of you" and you get to hear her over the phone just goin through the worst. Caz during his little getting roy his insulin session he runs into her and she looks like this

Yea, not a pretty look. Stuck to the wall. Basically just in the same position as O'connor and Roper. Just groaning in pain while Caz does stuff, she doesn't even sort of attack him like O'Connor and Roper do she's just there like "I thought I told you not to come get me-" and Caz gets what he was there for and leaves. Buuut what makes her interesting you see, this is more of a chrysalis than anything. Some time later and the whole rig is basically like, falling apart and Finlay and Brodie are like "Bro we should do something about that. Ay Caz can you go figure out what the hell is doing that" and for plot reasons Caz does and wuh oh! Guess who it is!

It's Weber! She's detatched from the wall and her state's gotten worse and now she's tearing metal off the ship and just, merging with it. Kinda like the infected absorbing more victims but it's just the metal on the rig. Now, unlike the others, who's death just happened to happen (trots and muir getting squished, rennick drowning, addair being set on fire, ect ect). Caz HAS to kill Weber cause if he doesn't she'll destroy the entire rig. I haven't decided how he kills her but I'm thinkin he manages to lure her to a part of the rig that's like dangling over the edge and he manages to get her on the other side of that bit and she basically does that thing when someone saws off the branch they're sitting on in media and shit and she plummets into the ocean and is not seen again. Rip girliepop Bonus: Post-infection her lines bounce between english and german. With her "HOLY SHIT CAZ HELP" lines being in english and her "Gotta go home to see my family!!" lines being in german. Should I write some voice lines for this poor girliepop? I don't speak german but I could give ya'll some more stuff of her if ya want it

[acrobetia]

New SWTD cure AU when?

Now. :)

Here's some of my WIP designs/ideas for my AU inspired heavily by @i-can-fix-them's AU(I got their permission :D)! Im gonna design, Caz, Gibbo and Addair tomorrow- I gotta stop drawing, its almost 3AM ;v;

I tried to make all my designs unique and fitting to the mutations they have! And i plan to write their story too! Their designs may become more human as the story progresses.

Most of their outfits arent canon, Idk how to dress them so its mostly pieces that convience their traits-

TW for Body Horror, gore and descriptions of surgical procedures, everything is drawn on paper with no colour though.

O'Connor

(I keep accidentally spelling his name with an e ;v;)

I saw that O'Connor's spine was like, extended out and/or connected to The Shape, so i decided they removed him from the wall by cutting around the spine, which became a sort of "scorpion tail" just... yknow, connected to his upper spine instead! the spine tail thing doesn't have muscle, instead it moves with a long powerful tentacle attached inside the spine which can extend out or hide inside fully.

O'Connor also as a hole in his stomach which usually sits shut but is drawn open, where tentacles stay tucked inside and ready to strike like they did to Caz in-game, they tried and failed to stitch this shut many times! He has surgical scars where other parts of The Shape had him attached to the wall.

Roper

When Roper was extracted another person had been fused into his back, that person was deceased, and Roper, thanks to the shape, now had control over their limbs, he had their leg, which was attached to his hip, surgically removed alongside their head on his back shoulder, he has a ton of growths and pieces that couldnt be removed due to his spine being fucked up, meaning the growths was holding his spine in one piece and contained many on his nerves, although he's pretty lucky compared to some infected.

Due to having been attached to another person, that persons memories and thoughts linger in the back of his head and behave outwardly identically to tourettes(this idea totally isnt inspired by my own tourettes-) where sometimes the other conscious with cause sudden speech and or movements. The arms belonging to the other person often stiffen and get sore randomly.

Muir

I may have overthought Muir, but was the hardest to cure i imagine, mainly due to his bones being mutated more than any other infected, so he had the bones carved as they removed more and more excess flesh and then they discovered the bones now have quicks, like animal nails, so they couldnt cut smaller.

Muir has a lot of surgical scars and a bit of excess flesh left, but functionality is priority right now, he has a "tail" which holds some of his essential organs so it wasnt able to be removed due to growths inside his body leaving no room, he can still summon tentacles and his big tentacle spider legs from his back, his mouth is wired shut since his jaw and teeth are all fucked up

Innes takes care of Muir for the most part, his skull was extremely mutated, with holes and stuff all over, so they couldn't remove every extra piece, even leaving one of his extra eyes since the eye was too close to his other eye to be safe to remove without risk of blinding both eyes. Muir's main eyes are off center and one is smaller and lower, the other larger and higher, his eyes are a bit foggy and he isnt the best in sight, but his hearing is extremely good, he usually wears silencing earphones like those you use to protect your ears from explosions or loud gunshots, his ear byvhis extra eyes is like that of a lizard and more sensitivethan his other ear.

Arms and hands are stuck how they are until they can find a way to fix them, one arm is more functional due to clearer digits, the other less so.

Raffs

This design made me suffer but i was determined... in fact i began drawing Brodie first, knowing I wanted him to be the supportive father figure in Raffs life!

So... Raffs is practically entirely fucked up, bones obliterated due to being confined and slamming himself around so much so hard, he ended up losing one of his legs due to it melting into an incoherent mass of flesh without the bones for structure, his body is squishy like a squid and can be condensed like one. Raffs has breathing issues due to the surgery on his neck and the mutation having caused damage to his trachea, some of his limbs are extremely sensitive, others are completely numb, he cant wear a shoe on his foot anymore cause they're sensitive and he doesn't feel comfortable within the confinement, one of his hands is entirely red abd bruised looking permanently, he has a prosthetic leg now.

When he gets too scared or agitated his tentacles will shoot out whether he likes it or not, Brodue is Raff's caretaker and he treats him as a son, Raffs also has a ton of excess flesh that cant be removed, his essential organs all messed up from the diving bell.

Trots and Simon

Simon is the man putting the crew back together! He isn't a bad man really... only breaking a few laws by doing unauthorized surgeries and experiments on people who are believed to be dead while using Cadal Oil Ltd. resources and money without their knowledge... its finnnne! He's an undiagnosed autistic man! Homosexual. A surgeon who studied way too many biology topics.

Trots was, despite how it looked, the hardest one for Simon to treat, almost none of his organs are in the right place so he cant just chop off the bottom half of him, and that'd also chop his legs off by doing that, so instead, he moved around Trots' extra limbs so he can use them to crawl around with ease, Trots isnt very happy about being turned into a caterpillar, his own words not mine, but at least Simon could put his ribs back!

Rennick

Not many ideas for Rennick- ;v;

Just like Muir, his arms are stuck how they are, I imagine they were similar in difficulty and process, Rennick just easier since his bones hadn't expanded as much, his legs are extremely swelled up and are treated with annual surgeries to slowly remove more excess, for now though, he's wheelchair bound, his glasses prescription was updated. His head was shrunk with a mix of a multi-day long ice bath and surgeries to shrink his head which was mostly swollen tissue. No im not aiming for realistic with Rennick-

Ill probably adjust his design later.

Thank you for reading!!!

[pricklepearr]

i know almost all of you follow me for Weddie stuff but ermmmmmm Muirinnes time!!!!!!!!!!! Anyways here are some headcanons of them because i wanna flesh them out a bit for a fanfic im writing :] ( spoilers for the fic: lots of soft fluffy m0nsterfvcking)

Some of these are probably hella ooc but idc, im cringe and free and i wanna see those two old men BOINK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Innes

- Something tells me he's a good friend of Roys, probably not as close as Caz is obviously, but still I can see them throwing playful jabs at eachother

- Dimples. The man has dimples. You cant change my mind.

- Extremely patient and level headed, i mean, we saw how he was when his literal best friend turned into a sludge meatball, shock or not he was clear headed enough to tell Caz to get his shit together so they could (try to) help eachother out.

- I feel like he has a really good relationship with his parents. Type to have sunday dinners with the family before his job on the rig, clean the dishes afterwards and everything.

- Someone said this already (cant exactly remember who) but he definitely seems like the type to destress by just sitting with one of his favorite tv shows in his underwear, smoking a cig and sipping a beer. Though, occasionally he destresses by hanging out with the rest of the crew.

- During competitive games i feel like hes the type to try an trick the other out of winning, making a quick loud noise, getting in their head, stuff like that lol (Muir backs him up every time)

- Always up to some weird shit like feeding seagulls bits of his lunch or helping Roy cook even though he has 0 culinary skills

Muir

- Papas boy. 100%. Has a few pictures in a picture book of him and his dad working on cars together

- The type to work so fast he forgets safety, gets injuried (not huge injuries, things like smashed fingers, split nails, etc) on the job all the time

- Dares/bets some of the crew members to do stupid shit whenever work feels too slow to him, Finlay and Caz are the only ones who still take him up on the dares

- Actually really smart though when he wants to be, to the point that it suprises some people

- I also feel like hes suprisingly good at drawing. No professional by any means, but the type to make nice scribbly doodles when bored or taking calls (Mostly of cars or the crew, sometimes the stray seagull too)

- Always. Gets. Sick. During the colder seasons. Im talking sickly victorian ill but still wanting to work, Innes has to practically force him to stay in his cabin.

- His love language is calling people names and having playful verbal fights. Sometimes roughhousing too but after Finlay threw him into a door and broke it, Rennick put a stop to that real fucking quick

[radi0gh4stxd]

Au infodump post!!

I feel like I’ve wrote enough about this au to now, like, post about it?? I don’t know, but I think writing it out might help me to fill stuff in lol.

I don’t think this will be a long post, but I intend to yap a little so yeah-

Habromania Au!

Yes, I’ve finally got a name for it, but longer than I wanted it be called but eh, it’s whatever. Fun fact: the word means, ‘Delusions of Happiness’, and I think that fits the premise of my au as well as it can right now.

Now, onto the actual Au.

So, this au focuses a little more on my favourite little guy, Raffs!! He was given the short stick in the Og game, so I’d thought I’d let him shine a little in this au!

Don’t worry, Caz is still around and is just as important, but I’m not confident in my ability to write him yet, so for now, Raffs is our main guy!

Everything leading up to the drilling stays the same, except in this, Raffs isn’t the one going into the dive bell, it’s Brodie. Why?? Because one) I needed a reason for Raffs to not be infected and two) I wanted Brodie to be an infected in my au. So, basically Brodie decides that, to soothe the boys anxiety, to go first to just show him that all is fine, and that he’s safe.

And then the drill happens. And The Shape wakes up. This stays the same. Caz and Gregor still fall, except, I decide to be nice and decide that Gregor also gets to live, so Raffs and Douglas pull those two out, help them and that jazz. Douglas and Gregor stay with the diving bell, and Caz and Raffs go down and investigate, like in the game.

They find Gibbo, not infected, but rightfully scared. Finlay is also here, but she isn’t too well, instead of Gibbo getting the stuff in him, it’s her. But she swears she’s fine, that it didn’t hit her skin or whatever. So now, the group makes their way to accommodations, where Roy, Trots, Archie and possibly, again im making this up as I go, O’Connor are. They talk, discuss what the hell is happening and are later joined by Douglas and Gregor.

Archie is Very happy to see Gregor alive :)

Raff’s quick to ask where Brodie is, because you know, if they’re here, then where’s Brodie?? And the two explain that, well, Brodie went to look for him. But he wasn’t right, something was definitely wrong with him. But he was gone before they could ask anything.

So, now they have to go round the rig, searching for the others. And the shape stuff still happens, infected still try and fuck them over yadda yadda-

Now not everything written here is set in stone, but most is. This is me just kinda word vomiting and hoping it makes sense.

Now, the Shape and the infection and infected.

As already seen, some of the og infected aren’t infected here, while some who weren’t infected are. Thats only a few characters, most of the og infected are infected here too.

The infection is different in this au. It’s mostly mental, but physical traits still appear, but it mostly stays in its origin spot of infection, unless said person has more than origin spot of infection <3

Think of this like, a mashed up version of those mlp infected videos, the infection from hollow knight and the mold from resi 7. I’ve taken bits and pieces of what I like about them and just- threw them in a blender.

^^^

These are like, shoddy, sketched renditions of what I mean by the , ‘physical’ effects. The one on the left is Muir, and the one the right is Brodie. Not the best but I tried-

Now, I did change some things about the Shape for this au, and how it affects the crew, but I might, and by might I probably will, make a separate post for that.

As for now, that’s all I’ve got for this au. But yeah! Fun! If you have any questions about this au, I’ll try and answer them best I can, but I’ll warn you, I’m not to great at it. So if it comes off a bit awkward, that’s why<3

[zombiepuke]

do you think our managerial majesty rennick "hears" anyone when infected (like how caz hears suze)? 🥺

omg I was actually thinking this last night when I was writing (I’m almost done w that alphabet y’all yay)

I honestly don’t know! I really wish we had more backstory for Rennick (I completely understand why we don’t though because the story is obviously driven by Caz and there wasn’t any real reason to give them all super long drawn out backstories but it definitely would have been cool to see a little bit of something about Rennick that was more than just your angry boss). That’s honestly one of the main things that draws me to his character, though, because we only see like, a tiny little glimpse of who he actually is (it’s like that w most of the characters, but with Rennick you don’t even get to see his room, or much of his personal stuff in his office, or really anything pertaining to who he was). So it’s easy to pass him off as nothing more than a dickhead boss who doesn’t give a fuck about anyone but with just lack of information about him and a few of his voice lines as the game progresses, I don’t think he’s totally heartless, just extremely stressed and overwhelmed and he takes it out on his employees, for sure.

But as for if he hears anyone, maybe he has children that’s he’s estranged from? Or a wife/a spouse? I don’t suppose he’s happily married by any means. I love characters like this because we can conjure up so many ideas that would all work and make sense!

I really wish we could have seen him getting infected though. I 10000% believe he was infected before he got on the helicopter (I mean his voice at that moment? My man was in PAIN). I fucking love scenes where a virus or w/e is fully overtaking someone idk it’s like my jam and I love angst and hurt/comfort shit so I would have loved to see more infected!Rennick definitely. And how he begs and pleads for help and to not let him die, man, we could have gotten some real emotional ouchies from that.

(Ofc angst idea he hears you while being infected. And we know canonically it’s extremely painful while they turn so like…. him crying out for you while he’s turning. And you can’t do shit about it because the Shape’s influence is causing him to try and attack you, but he’s begging for help or to make it all stop. Man. All the infected got to me y’all I just love painful transformations and their consciousness still being at least partly there during it all)

Idk I love u Davey Rennick :’)

[billy-cockblock]

Your beacon fic goes SO HARD dude. I gotta ask, will Caz be developing any more mutations as the fic goes on?

WILL THERE BE HINTS OF HIVE MIND STUFF WITH HIS FELLOW INFECTED?????

Your getting me invested bro and it's perfect timing I just started watching Jack's let's play of this gameeee <33

THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! And YES JOIN US

For Caz developing more mutations as the fic goes along, I thought about it, and kinda wanted to, but ultimately decided not to. Kinda spoilers for what I want to write later, but my thoughts were that the shape infected them and caused them to mutate, but if this were a good end thing, then they couldn’t come back to the mainland if they were still infectious. So, once they get infected, it mutated them, but then their immune systems kinda fight off the infection and just leaves them like that. The same happens to Caz, but on a much smaller scale (and with a sprinkling of my theory that he gets Ethan Winters’ed and it somehow slows his infection). He got infected, it mutated him to be able to bioluminesce, and then his body fought off the infection and left him like that.

And I LOVE HIVEMIND STUFF. It might not be on the level of a true hivemind, but I definitely plan to have some “we’re connected on a deeper level than people are supposed to be” stuff. Hehehe

[fisheadz]

I have posted the first and currently ONLY chapter of a lil side project I’m writing on Ao3!

It takes place in my ISM x SWTD crossover AU. A combination of @milestonekestrel ‘s Caz Survives AU, and my own Everybody Lives AU for ISM.

If you haven’t played/seen In Sound Mind, or Still Wakes The Deep, or either of these games, I highly recommend playing, or at least watching a playthrough or two. Some stuff might not make sense if you don’t, and they’re both just great games in general :D.

[zeondraws]

Notes, to remember

- I need to flesh out the environment from Nightfall AU that the crewmembers walk around in before establishing something in drawings. Might as well continue writing more until I can start drawing more.

- I have big urges (the urges are very big) to focus on the analysis vid, maybe I can insert fandom inside jokes. I need to wait for artbook thooo

- Make a video about External Resources Unused files and DLG Temp files

- Remember to make a timeline for the lore, by using the clocks ingame. And research when the sun goes down in this region irl

- Make fmodel tutorial thingy, or do I make a video so I can practice speaking more.

- Work on paintings, but go back to comfort zone if it's too scary for me. And then try again when I have energy

- Work on mod in January? Or will the Unused soundfiles use up my time. This ties together with figuring out UE5, I also need to give realistic Roper his ingame clothes. Once he is perfect I can try to recreate the other characters. Do I need to bake Roper's model? Or how do I get his EXACT ingame model? How do I recreate the steps.

Realistic Roper is too small when imported into Blender, multiple versions of his model appear and skeletal mesh is not where it is supposed to be. This is prolly because I am a newbie in this stuff

- The metahumans all lack 12 bones in their skeletal mesh in blender. I can't import their animations. Remember to ask friend who knows blender, otherwise find some way to fix

- Put umodel and that other program on my pc, I have both on laptop but then often forget about it. Other program helps me directly search for any file, is why I found out about CazYeet filename. I forgor name of program but I'll remember when I check again.

- People in the MW community are able to pose character inside the environments. Why is SWTD difficult to recreate this. Other UE games work better? Or maybe people just have more knowledge than me.

- How to I give Caz his head back

- Please remember to play game in all 3 versions because the toilet room you enter from crew lounge has a slight change in 1.4. One of the Toilet stall walls is GONE. It was there in 1.3, someone from the TCR team did this tiny change, what do I do with this information.

- Scooby noted the food (peas) textures in canteen changed, I need to check when I have the energy. Which means there must be a lot of tiny changes in ver 1.4

I usually can't sleep well when it's my birthday, takes a few hours to get tired, so I figured I'll write down some "To-Dos" It's quite overwhelming how much it is.. I have a full time job so it's always like, how much of my free time can I use before I usually end up too tired on one day. (My new job is also very fun so I am like, oooohh, so excited about job and hobby but I only have so much energy)

I think I'll go to the cinema today, hhmmm

Okay I am finally tired enough, I'm listening someone in a monotone voice talk about spongebob lore for 2h.

[ghxstlly]

Is there any starting point of your aus Caz i kinda got stuck while reading and idk what to do now [I'm sorry for asking (⁠´⁠;⁠︵⁠;⁠`⁠)]

Yea— I'm very sorry, I have a hard time keeping organized. The plot of my AUs is fully written out in my head, but because I tend to only write out and share the most interesting/fun parts, I can see how that might be a bit hard to follow.

I am working on making up like a sort of .. timeline for my Attorney AU that'll hopefully help, but if you have questions about that kind of stuff, don't hesitate to ask! It's no problem for me at all :)

[mrs-ant-tenna]

The Queen and Her Subject

Woooo boy am I excited to be writing this. Finally a fic I'm actually putting time into

Word count: 1,298 words TWs: Lovely-dovey gooey mushy stuff, kinda self-shipping ig? Also kinda OC x canon

And here’s what I imagine these characters would look like

But also the bendy in this would look like This (credit to the creator of this, it’s SO cute)

----------------------------------------

I HIGHLY suggest listening to this before you read on, because one of the main characters and the main story of this prologue is VERY MUCH based off of this video. All credits I mentioned go to this creator on YouTube ⌄⌄

Now since that's out of the way, ENJOY THE SHOW!

----------------------------------------

“M-My Queen? Are you all right?” A nervous wimpy voiced asked

“!!!” 

Jumping out of her skin, she is jolted awake. Already with adrenaline pumping through her body. Though as quick as a blink, poor Caz already has her hands up ready for any and all danger.

“W-Who are you? Where am I? What i-is this place?” She sputter with a twisted fear in her voice

“My Queen! I-It’s alright! You’re alright! Really, you’re ok.” 

Stopping dead in her tracks as if regaining her senses. She notices a few things off about this mysterious person helping her. 

1) He (or whatever it may be) called her a “Queen.” Why in the hell would it do that? 

2) The voice seems to be coming from…a bendy shaped figure? She notices stitches. Is it one of those many bendy dolls with a crooked smile? 

“W-Where…where am…where are we?” She questioned in low shaky breath

“...S-See for yourself” The wimpy bendy figure suggested. 

Doing as she was told, Caz begrudgingly gets off of the ground to soak in the atmosphere. At first, she notices they are on what appears to be an island with a door behind them. Surrounded by this…weird black stuff. The ink? 

With a tapping on her shoulder, the weird awkward alive bendy plush points another thing out. “Look…look at that” it asks with fear in its voice.

Caz then turns around, not knowing what to expect. What she sees makes her more confused than anything. A giant blocky machine with tubes and wires poking all around it. 

“Woah…what even is this place? Who are you?” Caz sternly asks the bendy doll. 

Without even giving it time to respond, Caz already starts to spew even more questions. Something about this small living bendy plush is weirding her out. And yet something about it seems familiar.

“What’swrongwithme?WhereamI?Whoareyou?Howareyoualive?Howdidthishappen?What’shappeningtome?”

With the freaked out tone and with her having a sudden panic attack, the nervous bendy doll tries to consult the paranoid newbie again.

“It’s alright! It’s alright! Your highness, please! It’s me.”

Who? How the hell is she meant to know who this stranger is if she can’t even remember how Caz herself got here. 

“You? I don’t know you! I don’t know anything that’s going on!” She vents out in feared rage. “I don’t even know how I got here…” the new freak-show murmured solemnly.

“Why, d-don’t you recognize me? I-It’s your loyal drone servant, Billy Bee. Well, I w-was a bee” He says as he looks back at his upside-down heart tipped tail as it whips around. Then it all clicks. Caz knew what this black stuff was and how she got here, “Oh, weren’t you that one-off character I one-off voiced in that one-off episode about bendy tryna steal honey? I was the….queen bee, right? Is that why you keep calling me royal names? You still must think I’m her. I really am not.”

Puzzled, Billy asks “Not h-her? Even if you…you aren’t, you’re still incredibly beautiful l-like her.” Finishing off with a giggle and his cheeks getting lighter. Or darker? Flushed or embarrassed.

“But how did…How are…How can I know you’re telling the truth.” 

“W-Well, I could never hurt you. Honestly, I w-would even dream of hurting you. Y-You my queen! I’ll never do that e-even if I wanted to.” He exclaimed passionately and happily.

“You seem…oddly cheerful despite the situation we’re in.”

Now with that pointed out, the color of the sides of his crooked smile deepen more in color. 

“B-Because I’m with you, m-my queen. Oh, your presence always…always calms me down.” Billy happily whimpered. 

With a huff, the supposed “queen” dusts herself off, ready to move forward. But just as she was about to look back at the moving bendy doll, she noticed yet another thing. Her arms. Then her torse. Then her clothes. 

Sharp dark golden bones seem to be protruding from her elbows out of the flesh of her forearms. Spider-like. Almost widow-like. It’s not causing her physical harm. But emotionally, her view on herself is almost completely shattered. 

“I’m…I’m…How did this happen?”

Then, the awkward bendy plush gently wraps its lanky tail around Caz’s ankle. Tugging away from the surrounding ink. With him being paranoid about something lurking in there.

“I really t-think we should…we should go, my queen”

“Wha- huh?!” Caz exclaims, almost like snapping out of a trace of anxiety. 

Billy couldn’t help but to be drop dead worried about his “queen’s” mindset. Question after question. Worry after worry. Almost as if she can’t let go.

“Wha- what are you talking about, Bills?! Don’t you see? I’m an inky monster! You’re an inky monster. We’re trapped down here!” She snapped. “I don’t know how to explain it but we’re trapped, what are we able to do?!” Caz couldn’t help but to yell. All of this, is getting to her head so quickly. There doesn’t seem to be any luck for them. The gods Joey was babbling about before this happened mustn't be on their side for now.

“I know, my queen. B-But…sometimes there’s only one thing to do. Press on”

.

.

With simply a defeated sigh. Caz has nothing left to do but to agree with the small “Billy” plush. Reluctantly though. Not too keen on exploring this horrible and disturbing place. Especially with the likelihood of easily getting lost with not knowing where to go. 

“...I guess we could try.”

Billy giggles happily. Glad his queen agreed with him after some persuasion. Adding a hop and a skip to his step, Billy the living bendy plush begins to flow the “queen” he so lovingly adores. But whilst turning to face the doorway, he caught something just out of the corner of his eye. 

“M-My queen…do you see that.”

Caz then snaps her head back, as quick as an owl. But she notices nothing out of the ordinary. Well, for this world at least. 

“No? What are you on about?”

“That.”

Caz tries to figure out where the nervous little Billy guy is alluding to. He seems to be worried about something about the giant machine almost a hundred feet away from the both of them. Everything is fine. But…the doorway in front of the large machine. On top it reads “GENT” Gent? Something about that word is scaringly familiar to her. Was it a union? A group? No it was a-

.

.

.

A cooperation

Gent cooperation

Shaking her head. Even just that word. Gent. Brings her chills. But it doesn’t go unnoticed. Though very tiny, Billy sees the fear form in Caz’s expression. But like clock work, almost instinctual. Billy scampers up Caz’s leg then arm up to her shoulder. Like a cat when its owner has a bag full of cat-nip. 

He kissed her cheek with a "Mwah" by pressing his tiny plush open mouth grin to her face. Similar to another person with yellow-ish felt. Despite the ink dripping from her eye and it getting onto Billy’s felt-like teeth, he doesn’t seem to mind. Only minding Caz’s state of mind. But not giving a word to the fact that her cheeks also darkened to a blush. Like a towel soaking up water. Getting darker.

“P-Please…don’t be afraid, my queen. I know it’s…it’s scary being h-here right now but, despite my new size I’ll try m-my best to protect you. I can…”

Billy then looks around, scanning the area to think of anything to cheer her up. Then he and his skinny tail spring up when he gets an idea. “I can be y-your second pair of eyes. I’ll stay r-right up here on your shoulder.”

His idea works out. Caz finally cracks out a smile because of him. She’s finally seen something, or someone, who’s willing to help her here. A feeling she’s been longing for all her life. 

“Th-Thanks, Billy. I haven't heard someone say that to me so genuinely in a long long time”

Talking act 3 sad regression?? How about at the start of the Cazador fight, considering Cazador keeps calling Astarion “boy”, talks about family all this time, even goes so far as to call Astarion a “little boy”, then he gets helplessly flung into the ritual—Astarion knows he has to be a big boy to face Cazador and finally get closure, but all of a sudden Cazador is using all of those belittling words that Astarion’s cg had been working so hard to reclaim and make positive again, and all that progress just comes crashing down. Cazador probably would lay into him for seeing him regress right before his eyes if he wasn’t so preoccupied with the ritual and the party now intruding. But eventually in all the terror and fear Astarion feels Tav at his side freeing him from the ritual bindings while the battle rages behind them… just holding him as he sobs and tries to apologize that he can’t be a big boy when it matters most ;~;

I wanna write some comfort for that now but I can’t reasonably post it anywhere lmao I keep my agere stuff pretty hidden since folks are nasty about it..

waaAAAAAAAAAAAA the poor BABY OH MY GOODNESS ;o;

Astarion feels SO bad that he couldn't be a big boy, that he let Caz scare him- but Tav gently shushes the baby bat, telling him that Astarion did nothing wrong, nothing at all! They all know the horrors he has had to face with Caz! They aren't mad at him, they just want their baby bat to be okay and they will do anything in their powers to help him feel safe and okay ;o; aaaa

And oh gosh, it can be scary to post fics but you can always make a sideblog that separates you other blogs ;w;

Finally made an OC for SWTD

I love his hair so much, I tried to make it look like waves, but its very pretty, the shape of it is, Idk if the shading is that good- XD

I tried a bunch of new things and shadign stuff on this design, I dont usually make them this detailed, but I felt he would look better if his skin wasnt single-toned and stuff.

His name is Shona McIvor, his first name means Crimson/red and his last name means Son of Íomhar which means battle lord.

McIvor is Addair's trainee(Im sorry I did this to you-) and he works as an engineer, he isn't a huge fan of oil rigs, but works the job for its good pay to support his big family back home in Skye, he is old friends with Brodie as their parents knew each other, he even met Mhairi when she was born.

McIvor has a fascination with the ocean and see's it as a mighty being above all which deserves to be praised and respected, he writes songs and poetry about the ocean and will recite and sing them to the ocean as if to earn her favour.

McIvor is kind, optimistic, social, loyal, impulsive, and distant(zones out a lot while at sea).

McIvor survives The Shape due to secretly being a paranoid piece of shite and being prepared, buddy spent the hours Caz was running around instead building a shitty boat out of scrap metal and other materials he had stored in a untouched storage container, and managed to get out a few minutes before the rig blew, is this realistic? No. Do I care? Also no... plus he dies of hypothermia only a few hours after reaching land anyway and frantically trying to say what happened on the Baira D, everyone thought McIvor was a madman, rip.

No, he wasn't infected, he managed to avoid any contact with The Shape and any effected oil by staying on the deck, bud almost got crushed many times though.

Bet he got a viking funeral- XD

Am on a writing roll recently!

Have some Guiding Lights (my 'big' au) stuff! In which Caz runs into a old...accquantance.
