@octaviusing 's Disciple AU caught my eye the other day and I made something silly for it!

Two Fords married to Bill after some version of Stockholm Syndrome And losing an eye to him AND unable to return to their home dimension (yet)?? What are the odds :D (High. The chances are high these characters are toxic <3)

I absolutely love your colors and designs, so I hope you like our goofy guys meeting in passing

Currently obsessed with Under the Plum Blossoms by @amberstarfight on ao3.

Peak Lord disciple AUs are a particular favorite of mine & extra points if my "blockhead baby who only cares about fight" is the one with the emotional intelligence to understand what's happening here. I mean, it's not hard to be less dense than Shen Yuan but still, credit where credit is due.

This scene from Chapter 6 made me feel all fluffy & I had to try my hand at it. Idk if they look any different from how I usually draw them but I had fun lol.

Here's to them making a 3rd path together 💕🥂I appreciate your brain worms & will gladly follow them wherever they wanna go!

Just some concepts for my disciples au, including a peak at one of Dream's girlies!

Not much for her now, but one day you'll get a proper introduction for this gal, till then you have a few quick thoughts about the dark prince, Athens.

Nightmare's slinky and charming guardian, all grown up. I tried to keep the general gist of his younger design with something that felt right. Still gotta work on him, I'm not completely happy with his clothes, then again I'm going to have Nightmare's original fearsome silhouette in the back of my mind so it will take some work for me to be happy with it. Then there's all the gorgeous fanart of the design I'm thinking about.. Anyway, for anyone who recognizes the tags may know this is the au where Nightmare gets his own guardians (along with his brother of course). With every newly born guardian they get certain properties to heal or benefit the guardian who makes them. Features may just be seen as what the guardian wanted within his hearts of hearts, his deepest most interwoven desires and cravings shape their guardian.

Nightmare may have only had a wanting to just be accepted, but it had slowly been stripped away as he grew angrier and older. Athens is his need to flee, hooves thumping and disappearing deep within the trees to never be seen again. To be both glorious and unseen. To have his own deep seated strength and means to just be. Take that as you will, but Athens provides that. His sharp talons and crooked smile is a safeguard against all that may try to harm Nightmare again. The metaphorical silver tongue the king and prince share guides their enemies away gently. The claws are for the history that was written in blood, so Nightmare may never dip his hands again.

Meh well, just a peak at some deep thoughts.

(if anyone wants any more of this stuff I have all the lore bits scattered around my blog)

Some au's to check out, for your desire of Evil Ford! @antonymziie : Prism Break Au - an au Ford breaks canon Bill out of Theraprism, and they are crazy gay partners in crime, in the multi-verse; its great, 10/10 recommendation. @octaviusing : Disciple Au - I haven't checked up on new lore in a hot minute for this one, but basically Ford originally hated Bill like canon, but they kinda made up and became a feared couple in the Nightmare Realm. Ford worships Bill, and Bill basically has complete control over him (Bill thinks that, he's really at Ford's whim when Ford feels like not playing along) I will edit this later if I can think of more, but its 2 am, lol-

life is so unfair. UN FUCKING FAIR. it’s actually so important that ford is a heroic character and treated that way by the narrative because characters with his traits often get villainized to their detriment but. like. do you know how SEXY ford would look as a bad guy? DO YOU? CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE?

Idea: Shen Jiu wanders by the camp of children waiting for the entrance exam one night and comes across a small child beating Shang Qinghua with a stick shouting about his terrible writing and stupid ideas

It's very amusing even as Shang Qinghua is clearly not hurt he still looks cowed. And Shen Jiu is thoughtful, leaving his Shidi to get beaten by a small child

The next day the kids barely break soil before Shen Jiu is like: "That one" pointing at Shen Yuan

Everyone is surprised and pleased with his decision he leaves and in a frantic bit of panic Shang Qinghua nabs Luo Binghe

Which leads to Shen Yuan repeatedly stealing Luo Binghe and when questioned he says "he belongs on Qing Jing, not with that man"

Shen Qingqiu is delighted by the spite and joins Shen Yuan in trying to get Luo Binghe to switch to Qing Jing but Luo Binghe actually quite likes An Ding and Shang Qinghua who ruffles his hair and personally taught him to read.

(Shang Qinghua just wants to not die)

Anyway Shen Qingqiu secretly delights in Shen's sassy and snarky ways but he's also bad with children so he's like "fascinating." *pokes Shen Yuan with a long stick*

Ming Fan tries to bully Shen Yuan and gets called a "forgettable cannon fodder" and "ant boy" and immediately deflates and cries

Remember Shen Yuan was a bored rich kid internet weirdo. He's not dealing with bullshit if he can get away with it

I've talked about it before but we need more beast keeping peak shen yuan au where he is as terrifying as he is sweet.

I want him to take a bunch of juniors on a night hunt and see a little fluffy animal and go "listen up, that's an invasive species! Whenever we see these we have to do this-" and then he traumatizes them by reducing it to a bloody mess.

He sees a hungry cub whining helplessly and goes oh poor thing I'll find you some food... then he returns covered in gore and drops dripping raw meat in front of it. He looks at his fellow disciples and says "what? It's carnivorous."

Older disciples LOVE watching new students follow shen yuan around like lovestruck ducklings when they first join the peak... then they go on a mission together and come back shaking going "what the fuck was that." It's a rite of passage

[starry-bi-sky]

on a completely separate note; shizun luo binghe with a disciple shen yuan who fell into the abyss??? *thinks about LBH canonically stealing SQQ's corpse for 5 years* he'd hallucinate i think. like, like visual and audial hallucinations.

Keeps thinking he's seeing SQQ in the corner of his eyes, or wandering between the trees, amongst a group of disciples. Thinks he hears him calling for him, but its just the wind or another disciple.

Gets Xiu Ya reforged but patently fucking refuses to make a sword mound. Because his disciple Is Not Dead :))) There was No Body. He's Not Dead. And If You keep Insisting That He Is, He's Gonna Skewer You :). He's holding onto Xiu Ya so he can return his most favored disciple's sword when he returns. It's on his hip right next to Zheng Yang where it's supposed to be.

Also this motherfucker?? does not sleep btw. He has the image of SQQ, wide eyed and hysterical and standing at the mouth of the abyss burned into his fucking eyelids. Can't use the dreamscape to escape it either because he keeps trying to save him and either he does and it's an incredibly cruel trick to wake up to, or he doesn't and he gets his heart broken in several different pieces again.

There is no convincing this man that Shen Qingqiu is dead. Absolutely nothing at all. He is buried so deep in denial that moles would be jealous of how deep he is. He keeps making tea for two in the bamboo house only to remember that it's just him. SQQ's fans are hiding everywhere, little reminders of his presence. He goes to wake up SQQ on the mornings he sleeps in-- only to find the room empty.

Disciple Shen Yuan AU but he joins QJ Peak right after Lou Binghe gets pushed into the Abyss. He does NOT know where in the plot he is until it's too late. He's already joined and he can't Just Leave. So he sits himself down and is like "ok new plan, learn as much as possible in the next 5 years and dip before Lou Binghe destroys the sect, got it? Got it."

So he cultivates as hard as he can, turns out he's like a cultivation prodigy. Super cool. He does cultivation things. He gets his spiritual sword. He gets ready to leave and the system won't let him.

The system gives him a mission called "Save Cang Qiong ‼️‼️". So he's freaking out, he thinks he's gonna have to fight Lou Binghe. He's planning his funeral (internally). He's hyping himself up to at least try his best.

Anyway Binghe shows up, gets wife-beamed with the strength of a nuclear missile. Doesn't destroy the sect.

Shen Yuan is very confused when the system pops up with a "Congratulations! Congratulations! Congratulations! Important things must be said three times! Congratulations on completing mission 'Save Cang Qiong ‼️‼️'!".

Liu Mingyan writes some bs probably entitled something like "Stuck Between My Shizun and My Demon Shixiong 🥺🥺"

Does Bill ever help wrap up disciple Fords face for him day to day? Is he tender with it or terrible at it?

Never run to draw something so fast in my life!!

Ford loves to get on Bills nerves just to see him get mad, it works every time.

however he does have to wrap himself up when that happens

[lurkinginnernarrator]

disciple era peak lords getting sent on a big infiltration mission together

shen jiu completely flipping into a flirting doe eyed personality to extract Intel, to the shock and distraction of all the other PLs

oh or it being like a criminal ring and sj fitting in perfectly, like he swears worse than a sailor, knows ALL the lingo, could probably drink/smoke everyone else under the proverbial table, knows what faux paus to avoid

Or both, that'd be really funny

Mission 1 SJ: Honeypot

Mission 2 SJ: gang

What if WWX lived to see his forties in his original body (without the core, of course)

[thebrokenmechanicalpencil]

Well I sorta finished it, a lot faster than I thought. Just what the boys looked like when they were "born" after Nightmare's last hoorah.

"The children born of their Father's LOVE"

Ps. It sorta hit me this is gonna be one of those "tap for better quality" pics..so do that if you wanna
