#Count of Monte Cristo AU

[goodoldcharley]

Hear me out ...

What if we had a "Count of Monte Cristo" AU with this guy? 👉🏻👈🏻

[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?

[inevitablemoment]

Not even twelve hours later, and my brain is working on a 1990!Benverly AU inspired by the Count of Monte Cristo (specifically the musical and the 2002 film).

[squeesquoo]

Fernand Monsparkle! Another character from the Ink Potts MLP/Count of Monte Cristo AU animatics! Honestly I just wanted to draw more ponies lol

[thedorkmations]

Just finished Scene 4 in Ep2 of a Welcome Home Au Series I’m doing. How we feeling?

[likeburningcoal]

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!

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

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!"

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!

[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

[spoks-illogical-art]

some colored stuff that i don't like very much anymore tbf

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.
