#Count of Monte Cristo AU

[roszabell]

Gil is perfect for Fernand Mondego because he has the exact same antagonistic petty bitch sneer

[da-millerrrrr]

Elena almost shoots Osvald in the Monte Cristo au btw

OH

why's that?

[kitofawriter]

Anyone wanna hear about my niche Shadowpeach Count of Monte Cristo AU? No?

Okay so Wukong is Mercedes right, Macaque is Edmond.

This got longer than intended so more below the cut:

Azure is Mondego and he’s got a thing for Wukong, but clearly Wukong is in love with Macaque. So Azure conspires with Peng (Danglars) and Yellow Tusk (Villefort) (who knows this is basically the only way to convince SWK to fist fight Heaven as seriously as they need him to) to get Macaque in trouble with Heaven. DBK kinda plays the role of Monsieur Morrel as the friend who got sidelined once the Camel Ridge Trio gained power.

Anyway Mac gets in trouble with Heaven and ends up imprisoned, SWK cannot find him and nobody in Heaven will tell him anything. Eventually SWK decides Mac is dead and he’s gonna work with Azure to overthrow Heaven as vengeance. After a long war, they eventually reach peace with Heaven and are given Camel Ridge as a place they can rule as they see fit.

LBD and the Mayor sorta play the Abbe Faria role and teach Mac a ton of magic and stuff but instead of them dying Mac just bails and escapes alone first chance he gets because he knew they were bad news.

He then proceeds to show up, glamored to an unrecognizable level (because SWK wasn’t the one to get in trouble with Heaven the furnace didn’t happen, and thus no gold vision), and acts as a very powerful spirit who’s very interested in the success of Camel Ridge and has absolutely no ulterior motives such as revenge. Absolutely not. He calls himself the Count of Shadow because he’s dramatic.

Anyway more characters.

MK is Albert/Maximillian who was adopted by SWK as a Mentee and ends up also studying under Mac

Mei is more of less Valentine except basically not at all as she’s neither in a romantic relationship with MK nor related to Yellow Tusk. She just plays a huge role in proving that “loyalty is real and not everyone is out for themselves”

Tang, Pigsy, and Sandy all play pretty big support roles in that they’re there to support MK and Mei and keep an eye on their creepy new friend, oh wait! New friend doesn’t like the rulers of camel ridge (who are mush less benevolent than they claimed they would be because they have 0 experience) okay maybe he’s not awful.

Very importantly Red Son plays the role of Benadetto/Cavalcanti, with some encouragement from his parents because they don’t like the trio anymore than anyone else. He gets to pretend to not be related to his family and act as a sorta spy by being a very powerful fire demon who wants to train under Yellow Tusk. He ends up being pivotal in finding the proof that Mac was framed and clearing his name with Heaven.

SWK meanwhile is struggling with ruling alongside Azure, Peng, and Yellow Tusk because he’s the only one with any actual experience ruling anything, while trying to train MK, while trying to keep Heaven from getting annoyed enough to wipe them off the face of the earth and dear god the last thing he needed was a handsome monkey demon passive aggressively flirting with him in ways that are far too painfully familiar!

Remember the Philip-succeeds-in-killing-Evelyn(and the baby) course of events/AU where Caleb goes on a vengeance hunt?

"Hell to Your Doorstep" from The Count of Monte Cristo the Musical is like the perfect song for that so here's a car doodle turned digital sketch

"The world is a place

where the villains wear a smile on their face

While they take what you can never replace

Stolen moments gone forever

But tables can turn

As my enemies will soon enough learn

I will strike a match and then watch them burn

On the pyre of obsession

You run 'till you drop, chasing an advantage

You'll pay any price if you think it's free

I will carry hell to your doorstep; I will make you pay

You will reap the hate you've sown on my judgment day

Sleepless nights and days of damnation

Soon and evermore

I will bring the Chateau D'If knocking upon your door

And love is a lie swearing that no matter what it won't die

Disappearing like a star in the sky

In the hot light of morning

But what do I care?

There are women to be had everywhere

First there's retribution I must prepare

Mighty vengeance is mine

I have a nice show that will tempt you onward

And just when you're sure that the prize is yours

I'll deliver hell to your doorstep dressed in rich facade

Then, I'll burn you to the ground like an angry god

Once you're in my shining cathedral heed the tolling bell

It's the final sound you hear as you descend to hell

Fall down on your knees

Fall down and let me hear you pray

Fall down on your knees

'till I can hear you bargaining, scheming,

begging and screaming to me

I will carry hell to your doorstep; you will rue the day

You will reap the hate you've sown

no matter how hard you pray

It's a place without any mercy, fashioned in cold blood

Stones of fear and stones of doubt

No forgiveness, no way out

Only justice

Then, amen!"

[idkwheresanti]

Forgot to post it here oops...

I'm still not over this movie btw

[howi99]

I dreamt of a blue butterfly 7

As Jaune was running, trying to keep up with the nevermore Yang was currently fighting with while a bunch of shadow was running after him, he could hear a voice calling to him.

Voice: *resonating in Jaune's head* Use me.

Jaune: *wincing from a sudden pain in his head* W-what?

Voice: I am your sword against the evil of this world, your shield to protect those you cherish.

Jaune: *having to stop running as the pain became unbearable* ARGH!

Voice: For i am thou and thou art i. Thou who cheated his way not for vanity, but for the chance to save those who need a helping hand. Thou who escaped from the prison of an unfulfilled destiny.

Jaune: *eyes turning yellow for a moment, while the blue butterfly passes again in his vision*

Voice: Thou who kept going, failure after failure, never backing down. Say my name, and let rid this forest from the dangers who lay within.

Jaune: *instinctively knowing the name, smirking* Then, come to me.

DANTÈS!

Taking a break from making Sonic characters into humans! And, instead, I bring you-- more Rainbow Dash as Edmond Dantes from the Count of Monte Cristo animatics, by Ink Potts!

[bellahunterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr]

Reasons Why The Chapter 'Unlimited Credit' is my favourite:

Danglars has FAKE ART AND it CLASHES WITH THE BEADING THAT DECORATES HIS CEILING??? What a loser 

Danglars: ‘Monsieur, no one has yet found my funds to be wanting’ Dantés: ‘so it seems I shall be the first 💅🏼

THE COUNT KEEPS A MILLION BUCKS IN HIS POCKET!!!! YOU MIGHT AS WELL GET YOUR DICK OUT AND SWING IT AROUND

‘A man like Danglars needed to be bludgeoned’ 🙃

Danglars with one last-ditch effort to show the Count how cool and rich and worldly he is: ‘i thought I was rather well acquainted with all the great fortunes in Europe; but I have to admit that yours, though it seems to be considerable, had entirely escaped my notice. Is it recent?' The Count: no hehe  

HAHAHAH DANGLARS IS LIKE COME SEE MY ART IM A CONNOISSEUR ITS REAL I SWEAR

Loustat/ The Count of Monte Cristo / AU

Lestat de Lioncourt, who was once a young man with a promising future, was arrested on his wedding day and betrayed by the people he trusted. Now, after long years of waiting, he is back, ready to take revenge on all those involved who ruined his life and separated him from the person he loved.

🎭 The Count of Monte-Cristo Prompts 🎭 — Edmond Dantès

🎄For the Fandomtrees event ☃️

🎭 Bonapartiste Edmond Dantès: When Napoleon comes back for the Hundred Days, republicains assault If Castle to free the prisoners here- among which, Edmond Dantes and Abbé Faria.

🎭 Edmond drowns at sea (at any moment of canon, before it, after it, passing by the prison escape ). He escape the adventure… different (transformed into a sea creature / a merman / immortal from ocean cursed / saved by a new sea ally? )

🎭 Mercedes disagree with ‘the count of montecristo’ poor self care (lack of eating and sleeping ). She decides to do everything in her power to fix that (including low blow ), now matter how much Edmond refuses anything from her hand and denies knowing her.

🎭 Edmond’s whole plot get revealed before he can bring it to an end - and the police show up in front of the manor to arrest ‘the count of montecristo’ (Bonus: if you manage to twist it into a crack fic )

🎉 For the Smallfandomfest 🎊

🎭 Amnesia. During his arrest, Edmond Dantès takes a blow to his head and loses his memories.

Without them, he is no threat. Without them, there is no reason to send him to If castle anymore.

🎭 Winged soulmates Au

Au where everyone is born with wings. The color of your feathers are an indication of the bonds you make throughout life (platonic soulmates style?). When people get close to each other, the original wing color mixes together with the other person.

A few of Mercedes primaries are dark blue, reminiscent of the ones covering Edmond's wingspan. Edmond has a few bright red feathers amidst the blue : Mercedes’ trace on his soul.

After getting arrested, one of Edmond's comforts was observing the red feathers that adorned his blue wings. Light reached properly the bottom of his cell only a few hours a day for him to see them. As long as Mercedes red was there, he could keep hope to reunite with her.

Edmond escapes. He plans his revenge. He searches for Mercedes.

Only, when the Count of Montecristo finally sees Mercedes from afar, for the first time again after years in a cell, there isn't a single hint of blue nestled in her scarlet wingspan. There is just Fernand's green.

(=> angst :3)

In order to ensure no one recognise him, Edmond dyes Edmond Dantès’ blue into the Count of Montecristo's black. The count's wings are pure ink, devoid of any trace of color, of any taint from relationships (Edmond will not allow himself such a weakness again). But safely hidden below this black paint… some colors do exist in hiding: from Haydee and André (if only they knew it~ not that Edmond would ever tell them).

The truth, which Edmond doesn't know, is that Mercedes also dyes her feathers. She's been painting her few blue feathers into scarlet for years- because wearing the mark of an arrested man attracted uncomfortable attention, and excited Fernand's jealousy.

---

🎭 Edmond and Abbé Faria manage to escape the prison together. Now, what influence will Faria have on Edmond’s revenge wishes? (And his absurd self care too tbh XD)

---

🎭 Vampire Count of Montecristo

---

🎭 Bonapartiste Edmond Dantès. What if the false accusation signed by Fernand accidentally hit right in the nail, and Edmond had just always been hiding that part of him?

---

🎭 Edmond finds the treasure. He also finds a dragon, because the mythique creatures apparently weren’t all dead.

(Dragon!Haydee, dragon!André?)

---

🎭 Edmond should have never been able to swim all the way to the shore when escaping the prison. He should have drowned and died in the tempest.

So why didn’t he?

---

🎭 The world is wrong. And we are right.

This is a dangerously addictive game... and one of our favorites.

(But what about when we’re wrong?)

---

🎭 Crack Treated Seriously. Edmond had a plan, he really did. He is not sure where everything went wrong and how his count of Montecristo persona became your friendly neighbour, nor why all the elders of Paris suddenly bring him veggies every morning nagging about his health, but it happened. (To make things worse, he didn’t even have time to enfold the first part of his revenge plan that Danglar is in prison for fraud, Villefort found dead in an alley with its murderer running, and Mercedes officially announced she would divorce Fernand now that Albert was finally old enough).

Or any variant with that ’crack treated seriously, can’t do my revenge bcs karma did it for me before i could move’ vibe.

---

🎭 As the World is my Enemy, and my Enemy is the World

[da-millerrrrr]

Throné doesn't actually die. The character she is, Valentine, fakes her death with the help of Edmond (Osvald) so that her stepmother (probably Mother) will go to prison for 4 counts of murder. In the final chapter, it's revealed to Maximilian (Valentine's bf) (Partitio) what happened and they get to live happily together :3

OH THANK AELFRIC

PIE YOU SCARED ME

The Count of London: A "The Glass Scientists" Au

Note: So I have recently gotten into the Glass Scientists comic because of my friend Eris introducing me to it a while back. I love the creator's inclusion and use of Victorian Era characters from literature as well as their own twists on them. I wondered sometime ago about how other literary characters would fit in the Glass Scientists universe. This is where this au and a few ocs of mine comes in. Especially one that is responsible for the au's creation. The au is a combination of elements from the Count of Monte Cristo and Sweeney Todd. Disclaimer: My oc and this au are my work. "The Glass Scientists" is a webcomic created by Sage Cotugno and their team. So the au takes place in an alternate universe before the Exhibition with some changes. 1. Frankenstein knows about Henry and Edward being the same person. 2. Robert and Henry are already a couple and had their talk before. 3. I made up oc names for Henry's parents. Donovan Jekyll and Catherine Jekyll. Catherine is deceased at the present of this au. A few other ocs I have made are important to the plot. Leopold Brighton, Maxwell Travis, and Jessica Moore who are important to the au. My central oc and the main antagonist of this au is Adrian Barton. Au Plot Henry Jekyll is getting ready for the upcoming exhibition. He feels he is on top of the world. The lodgers are willing to do the exhibition. He is also in a relationship now with Robert Lanyon. Things seem to be turning bright in his time. Sure there are reported cases of a few people going missing but nothing that concerns matters of the Society...right? Unfortunately things begin to grow more strange in Henry's life. Even more strange than what Edward Hyde brings through his nightly escapades. A new figure approaches the society, in the form of a high society figure named Lord Ezekiel Dalton. Out of the blue this man expresses interests in funding the society as a patron. Of course Henry and Robert both accept this man's funding. Yet certain people can't help but sense something...off about this new patron who suddenly came out of the blue.

Soon members of high society are being targeted and killed. Scotland Yard is baffled and becoming frustrated on finding the killer. A mysterious rogue known as the Iron Count appears and takes claim for the killings. They state that this is divine retribution for the corruption and greed high society has produced that have destroyed innocent lives. Dr. Jekyll begins to secretly investigate about this mysterious Iron Count and the reasons behind the killings. What Henry will soon learn that these murders go deeper than he realizes. That it all ties back to an injustice committed years ago, and a man that has connections to Victoria Frankenstein, Henry Jekyll, Edward Hyde, and Hastie Lanyon Sr. as well as a few other (oc) characters.

Who is Lord Ezekiel Dalton and where did he come from? What are his interests with the Society for Arcane Science and its founder Henry Jekyll? What is the Iron Count's ultimate plan? This and more will be found out in posts and stories for the "Count of London"
