#ELAD

[winniefrezcomics]

I like elad he’s so pathetic

Thank u lol, He comes by it honestly 😂 I feel like Dale is one of, if not the ONLY Legitimately EVIL fairies (due to trauma sure but STILL) so it makes sense Elad would be weirdly nice for an anti fairy ☠️☠️

idk where else to post this doodle comic but still wanted to share, it’s relevant enough Ig??

Sorry Hazel, he can be and he is 😂☠️

[roohoo]

Commissioned art from the indescribably talented Aliz Reka, aka rain1940_art on Insta! She has kindly given me permission to post it here. Elad is from my Ao3 fanfic of the same name. His outfit is based on the design by @mistahkinganubis

Visual description:

Art is of Dev hanging out with my OC Elad, Dale’s anti-fairy. He sits on Elad’s shoulders while chatting with him animatedly, his expression open and cheerful while the shades he typically wears are resting on Elad’s head. Meanwhile, Dale skulks in the background with a look of pure annoyance. A fairy crown hovers over Dale’s head while he taps away at his Dimma-pad, which has a fairy wand antennae. Elad wears a patched-up jacket over a black t shirt, as well as jeans and work boots: a stark contrast to Dale’s expensive-looking white-gold fit and fancy cowboy boots that are obviously for show, rather than practicality. Dale has slicked-backed hair while Elad’s hair is poofy and unkempt. Also, Dale has mostly gold teeth while Elad has mostly wood teeth. And while Dale is scowling at their inane conversation, Elad meets Dev’s eyes with a bright-eyed expression and happily engages with him. His eyes are red while Dale’s are blue. Elad casually leans forward with one hand resting on a solid surface and his other hand on his hip, holding his anti-fairy wand. His bat wings are extended. Dale leans with his back against a wall. He stands in shadow while Elad is in the light.

Regular anti-fairy activities: fainting from fright because your pup showed you a nightmare dimension again while the queen and her daughter laugh cruelly at your expense 😔

This shi took me two whole shifts lmao, tbh I just wanted to write Elad and Alegna interacting- believe it or not, they actually are acquaintances! They knew each other BEFORE she was queen, and have bonded over their miracle babies 💙💙 Anyone else teleporting into the Queen’s throne room and grabbing her unexpectedly would’ve earned himself a one-way ticket to the guillotine, but I think that’s more of a public embarrassment than a death sentence for anti-fairies?? 😂 since they heal and regenerate and stuff

ELAD INFO DUMP

Anonymous asked: If dale is even worse in this au, does that mean that elad is a really good parent? Did ved have a super healthy upbringing?

(Accidentally deleted the question SORRY 😭😭) You’re definitely on the right track, but there’s one big reason I don’t think Ved’s upbringing could be called “healthy”; Ved’s father is, and always has been, utterly TERRIFIED of him. 🙃 (which I figured made sense as a polar opposite to Dale’s not giving af about his son ☠️)

In contrast to Dale, Elad is a timid, skittish anti-fairy, who prefers to live a quiet life on his own, tending his nightshade gardens and generally living a humble, almost ‘cottagecore’ lifestyle. He’s always been the kind of person who HATES to make a fuss or be the center of attention, and despite belonging to the awkwardly-human-proportioned species of anti-fairies, has done his best to remain completely invisible for most of his life.

Part of the reason for this is that, by all accounts, Elad is VERY nice for an anti-fairy, and grew up ostracized and bullied for it- not to mention the fact that he’s actually not all that powerful magically-speaking. He can USE magic of course, but tends to prefer doing things by hand, especially things like knitting and gardening.

(More Elad info under the cut!! CW ⚠️for unexpected pregnancy, a kinda unhealthy father/son dynamic, and a VERY brief reference to Dale’s trauma at the end) 🫶

While MOST anti-faries got at least SOME heads up that their fairy counterparts were expecting children, fairy Dale keeping his pregnancy a secret from the general public means that Elad- his anti-fairy with whom he has absolutely NO RELATION- gets BLINDSIDED by suddenly finding himself with a child. At first he did what he always did when something felt wrong with him: (as it OFTEN did in his teenage years- more on that at the bottom) ignore it and hope it goes away!! 🎉

Needless to say, it did NOT go away, and since no anti fairies had been born in ten thousand years (i believe the last was Ymmit), his pregnancy symptoms actually DIDN’T make it obvious what was wrong with him and why he felt so sick all the time. No matter how bad it got, though, Elad just leaned harder into home remedies and refused to see a doctor.

Then, the nightmares started.

Every night, Elad would get tormented by visions of horrible nightmare worlds, frightening him deeply despite the fact that he’s an anti fairy, due to his timid and cowardly nature. Every night the visions became clearer, and every day his symptoms worsened, and all the while Elad could do nothing to shake the terrifying sensation that, no matter where he went, he was no longer ALONE.

And then, in an explosive burst of magic, there he was.

A million thoughts ran through Elad’s head as he held his son for the first time, buuuuut Because he IS Dale’s opposite, at first Elad tries to put aside how terrified he is, and promises Ved he’s going to do his best to raise his “Miracle baby” right.

…until he looks Ved in the eyes, sees a familiar flash of gore, and realizes with horror that THIS was the cause of his nightmares.

See, while Dev has the ability to see into the future, and imparted that ability into his father pre-birth- VED has the ability to see into ALTERNATE UNIVERSES- usually those where things have gone horribly wrong in nightmarish ways! (His skills aren’t as honed as Dev’s are, due to not having the targeted lessons Dev has been reciving since birth, so it’s an ability he utilizes pretty infrequently tbh, but really piss him off and he’ll look you dead in your shit like “hey, wanna experience every gruesome death you’ve ever narrowly avoided simultaneously? 🤓” and then beam PURE NIGHTMARES into your head for like a fraction of a second ☠️☠️)

ANYWAY, by the time Ved was a toddler, Elad had pretty much already convinced himself the damn thing was going to bring about the end of the world, tho he WAS relieved the nightmares stopped upon Ved’s birth.

Visions of horrible alternate timelines or not, though- raising an anti fairy baby BY HIMSELF was a harrowing challenge, especially with Ved’s sheer power level- Elad had himself, his home, and most of his neighborhood transformed, destroyed, or otherwise warped COUNTLESS times when Ved was a newborn/ toddler.

I think ELAD’s surpirze child is actually probably what tips the general public off that Dale must have had one too tbh… as much as Elad would have TRIED to keep a low profile, that’s really not possible when you have an anti fairy baby, and Elad didn’t have a giant mansion for Ved to stay isolated in like Dev, so word got out pretty fast.

Elad would continue to try his best to raise Ved in a healthy home, but the fact that the man could not LOOK HIS CHILD IN THE EYES without experiencing some sort of horrible vision made it difficult not to jump whenever his pup would so much as move too abruptly.

While I think there IS some part of Ved that loves his father, I think more than anything he pities Elad, and secretly thinks his dad is a spineless, pathetic excuse for an anti-fairy (even if it IS indirectly veds fault that the poor man is so damn jumpy ☠️☠️) tho with most people Ved will usually hide behind fake niceness to get what he wants, (an incredibly believable act, since his father actually IS nice) Due to his unique upbringing, one of Ved’s personality traits is that he actively ENJOYS instilling fear in people and creeping them out, ESPECIALLY when it comes to his father and his fairy counterpart- because in a way, thier fear IS what he wants.

If I had to summarize what thier current relationship is like, I’d probably go with “father who generally attempts to be healthy and supportive, but with a constant undertone of unease, and an unhealthy power imbalance with his son” 😅

Short Drabble to give an example of what I mean:

Elad, tentatively leaning into his son’s room with a bowl of spiders in hand: “heyyy, Veddy- kins! I brought you some lun- EEK!!”

Ved’s claws ABRUPTLY scrape down the chalkboard he was scribbling on, interrupting Elad mid-sentence

“Eheh- Daddy? WHEN have I asked you NOT to disturb me?”

Elad, swallowing heavily: “wh-when you’re um- scheming, son?”

Ved slowly turns to his father with a sarcastic grin- “that’s riiiight! Aaaand WHAT am I doing right now?” He gestures at the chalkboard

Elad, cautiously setting the bowl on a table without taking his eyes off of Ved, starting to visibly sweat: “sh-scheming?”

“Mm-hmm!”

Ved abruptly TELEPORTS into his fathers personal space, nose-to-nose with him, causing Elad to SHRIEK with alarm

“And what, Daddy, are YOU doing right now?” Ved hisses through his teeth, eyes wide and manic

“LEAVING! I- I was- just leaving!” Elad FLEES from the room, covering his eyes fearfully to not make eye contact

“L-love you son, s-sorry to Interrupt!!” Elad stutters, zipping out of the room

“Don’t let it happen ag-ian! Love you Daddy!” Ved sing-songs down the hallway, before his face hardens, and he mutters under his breath- “even if you ARE a sniveling coward.”

As Ved floats back to his chalk schematics, he absent mindedly plucks a spider from the bowl and pops it in his mouth, giggling to himself- “mm, brown recluse!” 😊

Don’t have much else to say abt Elad tbh! But I HAVE done some more thinking about Veds childhood in general hehe >:3c fun fact, he and the other anti-fairy kids actually all met the fairy kids once! (Hazel facilitated it, but ALL the parents were there to supervise) With the exception of Dev, whose father and Au pairs FORBADE him from so much as being in the same room as ANY anti fairy , let alone his own ☠️ lemme know if yall would like to hear more about this encounter, or Veds childhood in general! Tbh I’ve kinda put a lot of thought into why he’s ✨like that™️✨)

Oh, and one more thing about Elad! In his teenage years, he suffered from chronic wing, eye, wrist and ankle pain- eventually it just went away, so Elad never discovered that the reason for it was the horrible conditions his fairy counterpart was being subjected to during the decades he was trapped by Vicky and forced to make bootleg wands in the secret caverns beneath the star-fall valley 🙃

….yeeeaaahhh, the lemonade stand equivalent in this AU is pretty messed up, not that Dales traumatic backstory wasn’t already ☠️

[roohoo]

I’m a writer, not an artist, but in honor of my FOPANW fanfic being close to completion I decided to try something new using a screenshot from the show with the original show’s art style.

The fic is called Elad, I will link it below. I will also include the song I listened to a hundred times while bringing its namesake to life through words, a sore neck, and cramping fingers (artists, I have a new appreciation for all that you do)… if only I could have just signed a certificate.

My story follows the adventures of Dev and Elad—Dale’s anti-fairy—after Dale signs a fairyfication certificate during the takeover of Fairy World, accomplishing his dream of becoming the most powerful being in the world. Elad’s dream, on the other hand, is to be the greatest dad this world has ever seen! Like Dale, he will accomplish his goals… no matter what it takes.

Thanks to my readers who have followed along through nearly 40,000 words. If you haven’t read it yet, I hope you do so and enjoy :)

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE IT!!! Dopamine hit my brain like a brick. THAT'S MY BOY. My tall glass of lemonade. Sweet. Maybe a little bit sour. Who cares, he's a treat, and just look at the way he dances with Vick! Her maid's outfit is exactly as I visualized it, just WOW, and I am obsessed with the patchwork job on Elad's jacket and pants?? And the details on his teeth that make it clear they're made out of wood. And his scuffed-up boots. And the blue/yellow/pink colors looking lovely together. Everything is SO WELL DONE and every time I look at it I get another rush, seeing characters dancing is a #1 favorite of mine, it expresses so much personality and I love how Elad looks happy but also... I don't want to give away spoilers, but you know what I mean! What song do you imagine them dancing to? My song choice for them is AOK by Tai Verdes. Excuse me while I listen to that song a hundred times and stare at this piece for hours.

Dale’s anti-fairy dancing with one of his Vicky maids—aka, my fanart for the very talented @roohoo’s fop fic, Elad! In her au, Dale signs a fairyfication certificate during Dev’s Fairy World takeover, bringing into being his anti-fairy Elad! Click here to read it! I especially recommend if you like Dev and Peri angst/fluff, Dev getting his own protective guardian figure, human Peri moments, Dale getting punched in the face, Anti Coswan—seriously! It’s the whole package :)
