#Escaping Reality Asks

[sylveon-and-velveon]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ASKINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

I love my Voltron AU so much even tho I'm still designing all the characters!!!

Oh boy you're gonna get such a lore dump it's gonna be INSANE!!

So, here's everything I got so far!!

The OC cast listing:

Everyone that's got ref sheets so far

Moxie McClain

Universe KLO-BWQ

Moxie has a lot of baggage when it comes to the entire group, and that's very much saying something when you hear the other's issues. They ran off to space to help their intergalactic friend's captive race from being held as slaves, or worse killed, but they also ran away from planet Earth to escape from Maxwell. A man they wish they never met. And to escape from the feeling of being a burden to their own parents, like they were living in their shadows due to what they were able to accomplish.

Murime Garrett

Universe KLO-BWQ

Murime has the least amount of baggage out of the entire ship's group. She's also Moxie's best friend, having grown up with them their whole lives. She joined Moxie's escape to help her friend prove that just because they're half Galra, doesn't mean that they're evil. She wanted to help her new intergalactic friend, to save the race that was being held captive. She wanted to prove she was just like her dad, a hero! But over time with the group she would gain stress and anxiety for her own friend's mental health and safety.

Isho Shaksosh

Universe KLO-BWQ

Isho doesn't really know zis parents. Only zis last name and even then it took a while to get that information. Ze was isolated away on an abandoned planet when ze didn't agree and follow the misogynistic and sexist rules the Queen had put over the entire planet. Ze had lived on that abandoned planet longer than the Serpentine planet ze no longer called "home". Due to living all by zimself with no one else to connect with, zis social skills are bad as well as understanding other's emotions. But with the help of the rest of the crew, Isho's abilities have slowly gotten better.

Miyako Kogane

Universe ALMU-GRJS

Miyako dates the Queen's daughter. But due to the Queen's distaste in Galras, she has never met her in person. It does not fret much to Miyako anyway, she loves the Princess so much. But she agrees that it will be best not to meet the Queen. Miyako loves wearing, what she calls, "kawaii punk" clothes, but when is forced to wear more formal will be more steampunk.

The rest of the OC group without ref sheets. So they won't have any info on them yet-

Lamora's Princess - Universe KLO-BWQ

Maxwell - Universe KLO-BWQ

Cursed Minotaur Prince - Universe KLO-BWQ

Electrical Demon - Universe KLO-BWQ

The Ship's Sentience - Universe KLO-BWQ

Bimbo Leader - Universe KLO-BWQ

The Serpentine Queen - Universe KLO-BWQ

Lamora's Queen - Universe KLO-BWQ

The Galra Prince - Universe LLJX-TVD

The Prince's Fiancé - Universe LLJX-TVD

The Altean Princess - Universe ALMU-GRJS

The Canon Casting?

Well none of them have ref sheets yet, but I have drawn 2 of them from Universe LLJX-TVD, and 1 of one them from Universe ALMU-GRJS

Lance Sincline and Lotor Sincline!!

Lance's info: The Queen of the Galra Empire; Lance hides his face from people he doesn't trust, only showing his face to those that are worthy of his trust. This is due to many factors, the main two being that: He was abandoned by the people he considered his "team" and "family", and he was cheated on by the man who he once loved with all his heart. Despite Moxie's mother being someone he can no longer trust in his universe, he trusts Moxie with all his heart and sees them like another son.

Lotor's info: The King/Emperor of the Galra Empire; Lotor loves his family with his life. Protecting those that he and Lance trusts, especially those that Lance trusts. If his husband and son can trust them he can trust them as well. Which is how he was able to trust Moxie and their friends, because his son trusted them enough and Lance sees Moxie like another son. If they need to run from disastrous events, Lotor has allowed them to escape to his universe whenever need be.

The other one is Keith Kogane!!

Keith's info: The father of Miyako Kogane in Universe ALMU-GRJS, Keith lost his wife after she gave birth to his daughter. Resulting in him having to raise her ever since she was born. He is unaware that Lance is dead in his universe, and even more unaware how he died. He only knows that he used to date Allura.

Okay now the casting is out of the way!!

AU INFO SO FAR!! :D

Now, fun fact, I haven't actually written the info down anywhere. I just keep it stored in my brain until I need to write it all down lol. So basically, what I'm saying is, I'll be freshly writing this down. Unlike the character info, this isn't copy/pasted.

The AU dives into dark/heavy topics:

Rape/SA

Sexual Harassment

Depression

Suicide

Racism {Specifically for different alien races}

Sexism

Misogyny

Death

Of course I'll be handling these topics properly and with care! None of these are meant to be romantised in my AU, and I won't be happy if you try to portray it as so.

Maxwell is also meant to be portrayed as an irredeemable character, and if I hear people saying they could "fix him" and so on? Disgusting, he's a racist rapist. Yes he will be portrayed as an attractive man, but that doesn't mean the comments are allowed. He knows he's attractive, he uses it to his advantage!

Okay now that that's over with, here's a rundown on the start of the lore!

No spoilers of course >w<

This AU takes place after the canon story of Voltron {2016 remake}, with a few differences in the story for the AU to make sense. Allow me to list the one's that aren't spoiler worthy:

Allura, despite saving all universes, never died! Moxie sees Allura as an auntie

In Universe KLO-BWQ, Klance is a thing. Their traumas were never resolved, they never tried to get actual help. Instead believing being with one another could result in getting "help" easily. Resulting in Moxie growing up in a depressed and mentally unstable household.

In Universe KLO-BWQ, Hunay is a thing. No other deep meaning, I just really think Hunk x Shay is adorable!

Lance became Altean when he was revived by Allura and her powers {and I will forever stand by this headcannon of mine}.

Lance, Shiro, and Pidge all work in the Garrison in different positions. Keith's position anywhere is unknown to Moxie and the others. Hunk's a chef for Planet Earth and other intergalactic planets! Allura and Coran help look after the planet dedicated to the Alteans they found and rescued. "New Altea".

Bimbo {placeholder name lol} studies at the Garrison thanks to her adoptive father. Moxie and Muri don't go to the Garrison, but they love to sneak her out whenever they could. On Bimbo's 23rd birthday a party was held for her. To have a better fun birthday, she snuck out of her house from her bedroom with Moxie and Muri.

While the three of them were having fun they come across the Electrical Demon, clearly in distress. When he noticed the three looking at him he flew over. Begging for help. His home planet had been captured by another race, and he was trying to find others to save his people.

With the three's goals in mind, they decided to help the Demon out. Running back over to back over to Bimbo's house, she hijacks her father's car and speeds back off to the Garrison. Sneaking around late at night and when the four could, they rushed to the ships and stole the first one they could. Escaping into space to help their new found buddy.

Turns out the ship they stole was a gift to the Garrison from another race out in space. Appears the ship was more sentient than they realised too, and is willing to help out!

But like I said, that's just a rundown of the start, I don't wanna spoil the fun now!! :D

Hope this helped answer your interest in my main AU!!! :3

Wake Up! Everything You Believe Is a Carefully Crafted Lie by a Hidden Elite That Owns Your Governments, Banks, and Minds!

The world is under the control of a hidden, powerful elite that has manipulated humanity for thousands of years. Governments, banks, corporations, and even religions are all part of a massive, interconnected system designed to keep the masses in line. You are living in a controlled simulation where every move is calculated, every narrative crafted, and every dissent crushed.

Ancient Rome never fell; it just changed its face. The Vatican is the continuation of the Roman Empire, pulling the strings of global power from the shadows. The Pope is not a religious leader but the CEO of the world’s largest covert operation. Global leaders bow to Rome; every major decision made in Europe, America, and beyond has its roots in this ancient power structure. The so-called “democracies” are just fronts, and the real rulers operate far from the public eye.

The financial system is a tool of enslavement, but its grip is weakening. Central banks, the Federal Reserve, the World Bank, and the IMF have long kept nations in debt and citizens in economic chains. However, their reign is about to end. The Global Economic Security and Reformation Act (GESARA) is poised to trigger the biggest wealth transfer in history, redistributing stolen wealth back to the people.

This is a total overhaul designed to dismantle the corrupt systems that have enslaved humanity for centuries. Trillions of dollars hoarded by the elite will be seized and returned to the people, restoring economic power where it belongs.

This act will expose the financial fraud perpetuated by these institutions, wiping out debts and releasing new technologies that have been suppressed to keep the populace in poverty. The days of the financial overlords are numbered, and GESARA is the catalyst that will break their chains for good, restoring wealth and freedom to the masses.

Education and media are the propaganda arms of this hidden empire. From kindergarten to university, you are fed lies designed to shape your worldview to fit the agenda of the elite. Critical thinking is discouraged because an informed population is a threat. The news you watch, the books you read, and the information you consume are all curated to keep you ignorant, divided, and powerless.

Governments are puppets. Elections are rigged shows to give you the illusion of choice. Presidents, prime ministers, and kings answer to the same hidden masters. Policies, wars, economic collapses—they’re all orchestrated from behind closed doors by a small group of individuals who have no allegiance to any nation but only to their own interests. They decide who wins, who loses, and how the game is played.

Laws are tools of oppression, not justice. The legal system is designed to protect the elite and keep you in line. Roman law still influences modern legal codes, and its principles are used to maintain control over the masses. The courtrooms are theaters where the outcome is predetermined, and the real power lies in the unseen hands that pull the strings.

Corporations are not independent entities—they are branches of the same control network. They push products, policies, and narratives that serve their masters’ agenda. From the food you eat to the technology you use, everything is designed to monitor, influence, and control you. You are not a customer; you are a data point, a resource to be exploited.

The world is not what it seems. Every institution you trust, every leader you admire, every belief you hold has been carefully constructed to keep you obedient and blind to the truth. You are not free; you are a pawn in a game that was rigged long before you were born.

The only way out is to see the truth: that the world is run by a small, powerful group that considers itself above the rest of humanity. They are the masters, and we are the slaves. This is the reality they don’t want you to see. Wake up, or remain a willing participant in your own enslavement.

Escape the Matrix 🤔

[discordiansamba]

sokka's POV in the bad reality AU is actually so funny because like... he's not actually trying to kill them. long feng's orders are just to capture them but they're always acting so dramatic about it. like excuse me. I know the firebender girl is trying to kill you but I have standards, okay?

(why does the firebender girl look so familiar also. he's never seen her before in his life.)

then his targets briefly fuck off to the north pole for awhile where they apparently successfully

a.) fight against the avatar

b.) free the north pole from the fire nation's grip

c.) somehow summon the ocean spirit to go on a rampage?

and you're just like. okay. he's going to have to get a little more creative if these two people can do all of that. only when he runs into them again, there's three of them now. the little blind water tribe girl seems incredibly offended he's an earthbender. they get away because they're really good at doing that.

they go on to free omashu from the fire nation. they don't summon any crazy spirits this time though. long feng is getting even more and more interested in capturing them. then he runs into them again, and... he actually succeeds? in capturing them? hang on. that was way too easy. what are you three planning.

they all just give him eerie grins. you're going to take us to long feng, buddy, and we're going to make him an offer he can't refuse.

(also. unrelated. but the brown haired girl is really cute.)

#19.3 Unravel

It had been some time since Agni felt this nervous. Not even talking with Jinsung Ha recently had made him feel like this. He fiddled with the mask on his hand as he waited for Grace to come back. He had thought hard on how to deliver the news, but he knew that no matter how he phrased it, Grace would be upset. Velt nuzzled under his palm and Agni gave her a few pats, before deciding that she would be better inside her bowl in his lighthouse, just in case the shinsu acted up around Grace after he received the news.

Grace came back wearing the comfiest shirt and shorts Agni knew Grace liked to wear on lazy days. He joined him on the floor, and they ate dinner together. Agni always finished last, so while waiting for him to finish his meal, Grace told him about his day with Bam. Grace was intrigued by how much his way of thinking had changed, and how glad he was to be able to be by Bam's side when he was having a bad day. It reminded Agni of the hidden floor, when Grace faced his sworn enemy.

They left the used bowls on the coffee table and went to brush their teeth. Afterwards, they turned off the light and went upstairs to sit on their bed. Grace's curious gaze never left him, and Agni curled his feet nervously.

Grace was the one who broke the silence. "So…what is it?"

Agni's breath hitched. This was the part he dreaded most. "I talked with the crocodile earlier. Did you know that he could manipulate stone already?"

"Huh." Grace needed a few seconds to let the information sink in. "Didn't Rak learn it on the Hell train? How does he know it?"

"Turns out our crocodile also traveled back to the past like us. He found the young crocodile and taught him."

"What?!" Grace gasped, wide eyed. "That means our Rak is–!!"

"He's dead." Agni quickly snuffed out that hope. They had been in delusion for long enough; it was time that they faced the bitter truth. "He suffered a fatal injury from the explosion. He couldn't have lasted long without proper help." Agni omitted the actual cause for Rak's death, but still kept his words true. "I'm sorry."

"…Oh." Grace looked lost, just like Agni was. His lips parted a little, but they closed before any sound escaped.

Agni gently squeezed Grace's hand, encouraging and comforting as he let the silence stretch on, giving Grace some time to process the information.

"Agni…" Grace whispered, "do you think Hatz and Isu…?"

Agni bit his lip and avoided his gaze, as the nightmare of that day replayed in his mind. He witnessed Hatz get his arm ripped off when trying to protect him. He could still recall the clang of a sword hitting the floor, and Hatz's suppressed scream that gnawed deep at his guilt. He witnessed Isu get beheaded after being taken hostage, the memory of warm blood painting them both still vivid like it happened yesterday. 

Agni refused to acknowledge their possible deaths, because it felt like a nightmare that one day he could hopefully wake up from. He avoided the topic when Grace brought it up, so he wouldn't have to say it aloud and make it real. He had been so hard on himself, because he couldn't get rid of the feeling that he had failed Grace and everyone else involved.

Agni knew this had to change if he wanted to live better, now that they had gotten a second chance. So he swallowed down the lump in his throat that had built up over the years and asked mostly to himself; "What are the odds of their survival?"

"There's always a chance–"

"Grace." Agni looked him straight in the eye. "They were already severely injured before the explosion hit."

Grace fell silent and went still.

Agni felt a pang of guilt upon witnessing Grace's reaction. "Sorry. I didn't mean to snap." Agni fiddled with his hands. He realized that he didn't know how much Grace knew of what happened. "My scar…do you know how I got it?"

"I…was told it was from the family heads' battle." Grace looked thoughtful. Agni knew he was trying to be careful with his words. "A stray attack?"

"It could have been worse." The memory of the scorching heat on his skin felt like it had only happened yesterday. He passed out right when he was about to heal Isu, and only found out later that he also lost sweetfish at that time. The days he spent recovering from the burn, to withstand the excruciating pain every second he was conscious, and finally coming to terms that it'd be a permanent scar, was one of the turning points that had changed him forever. Were Grace not there to care for him, he might have ended up destroying himself even more.

Agni hadn't realized he had his left hand clawing on his cheek until Grace pried his hand off and frowned, "You're doing it again."

"Maybe I should wear the mask…" Agni muttered to himself. After all, Grace gave it to him less so he could hide the scar but more to prevent him from unconsciously hurting himself. The only time he could safely take it off was when Grace was around.

Agni bit his lip nervously when Grace didn't reply. He no longer had the courage to look Grace in the eye that spoke so much concern, so he leaned close and rested his head on Grace's chest. "Rak, Isu, Hatz and Hwaryun were trying to get me out of that damned place. But we were caught while escaping, and…it was a bloodbath. I was…too occupied to react to the incoming heat. Rak shielded us from the explosion. And when I woke up…"

"They weren’t with you," Grace finished it for him after Agni trailed off a moment too long.

Agni nodded dazedly, "I've been telling myself that they're still alive, after a blow that could kill rankers. But…who am I kidding? I was lucky enough to survive with just this little–" Agni vaguely pointed to himself– "inconvenience."

Agni felt a hand gripping his arm, and he pulled away to see Grace looking at him with a pained expression. His eyes were glossy and his lips were pulled into a thin line. Trusting his instinct, Agni reached out to gently trace and cup Grace's cheek with his free hand.

"I'm sorry," Agni muttered. "I'm sorry, for not telling you sooner."

Agni silently witnessed tears that streamed down on his love's face. It was a bitter sight that Agni wished he'd never have to see again, that he had tried to avoid for so long by not telling him. He pulled Grace in and held him close to his chest, as if Agni was trying to gather his own crumbled heart back together.

Grace mumbled their late best friends' names as he held onto him tighter, shaking from each breath he took between sniffles.

Agni felt his own eyes sting with unshed tears. He remembered the years he spent climbing the tower together with his old team. Despite their banter being his source of headaches, Agni knew he too had come to acknowledge them as his cherished friends. Only when they were gone did Agni realize how much he'd miss having them around. Seeing the younger them didn't exactly close the gaping hole in his heart, but at least the emptiness was more filled.

Agni squeezed Grace tighter. "We have their younger selves with us now. We will protect them better this time."

Grace only nodded and sank further into his embrace. And Agni planted kisses on his hair, relishing the thought that after everything he had gone through, Grace was still a constant in his life. As long as he had him, everything would be okay.

When Grace started shaking again, Agni caressed his hair and hummed a comfort song they had known by heart. Still, it didn't make falling asleep any easier for Agni, especially not after admitting that his nightmare was very much real. However, as he had been through grief…this, too, would pass.

yjh would feel™️ some things watching barbie, especially as the what was i made for scene comes in lol

rewatched barbie just to cry at that song fr. the way yjh would feel so Seen with barbie. stereotypical doll vs stereotypical protagonist. both manifestations of ideas serving a greater cause, losing their own agency and autonomy in the process until they both decide to gain back those rights. barbie by becoming human and yjh by finding out why he exists. both gain liberation in the end. cuz they're both human.

i feel like your putting a lot more meaning into your artwork. i like that. i like that a lot :]

Why do you think Khushi continued to stay with Arnav when he ill-treated her so much? I mean I know she wanted to keep Payal and Akash's relationship intact but why not just come clean to Payal? Arnav was almost abusive after all

Multiple reasons:

- first and foremost escaping from an abusive marriage is hard as hell because of multiple social, psychological, financial reasons.

- Khushi has absolutely no social support/network (which is necessary!)

- Khushi belongs from a patriarchal family and lives in a society where marriage means a lot.

- Khushi has no financial independence. If she leaves Arnav to go to her aunt’s - he buys that house and has her pay a rent she cannot afford. Thus, she literally cannot go anywhere.

- During hate marriage phase Arnav has repeatedly threatened her what would happen if she told anyone about the marriage. He knows Payal - he knows she wouldn’t let either of the marriages last if she knew the situation.

- Khushi has sacrificed her dreams of a happy and respectable marriage (she’s always seen IT as her ultimate home and belonging) for Payal’s sake. The last thing she’d do is let her sacrifice go in vain.

- memory isn’t perfect. You and I can count the many times Arnav has been abusive but Khushi loved this man and on some days the marriage was tolerable, it’s enough for her to forget the worst and live with the best of what she has.

Have u tried, like, taking a left turn instead of a right turn

I can't tell if you're honestly trying to help, or if you're messing with me. Pretty sure I've tried every possible direction I can turn to besides inside out. The Labyrinth is called 'The Labyrinth' for a reason, but it might be more accurate to call it another world entirely. It's not a corn maze, it's a pocket reality. ...Just to be safe though, I'll try another left. Maybe I'll get lucky and find an exit.

Hi,can I ask something because theirs something been bothering me lately

When I was on YouTube watching my favourite animation Vs Minecraft ships I saw a lot of comments "you cannot ship them because they are sticks","Alan didn't make some ship""they're not even love eachother "and some videos said "ships that I hate in animation Vs Minecraft/Animator"even some of them said "you cannot ship Chosen and Dark because they twins and made both made by Alan"

Now I felt like I cannot ship Chosen and Dark anymore not just that but also my other ships

Is it wrong for us to make some ships of our own? Even we make it in our AU?

Mmm...

I remember that a long time ago I thought about this and read other people's opinions.

And first of all, we can't control what other individuals think about an specific topic, in the same way they can't control our minds. So if a person doesn't like shipping, which it's something completely respectable, they can't stop another person from doing it, even more when this late person isn't hurting or affecting in some negative way to other individuals when they do it.

I just wish people could just ignore and go away when they find smth that they dislike, but a lot of people don't do that and we can't stop it, but we can do the right thing and ignore them because their opinion doesn't have to affect us. It's difficult at the beginning to assimilate it, but we shouldn't let them to affect us.

At the end the act of healthy shipping is a way of expressing ourselves, stimulate the creativity or just be happy. What it's wrong about it? What is gross? If you're not hurting others or forcing anyone into it, I don't see any problem.

About Chosen and Dark, I think it mostly depends on each one's interpretation because, as far as I know, Alan didn't confirm that they're officialy related. Some people see them as siblings, others (like me) see them like just two sticks that have the same origin but not kinship-

I could explain like this: I have two OCs, I created both of them, but I also ship them because I want to. The fact that I created them doesn't make them related automatically in my head. And it's the same thing for Dark and Chosen. The only official thing is that Dark was made to be Chosen's enemy and destroy him, nothing more.

From there, people can see them in any way they want- as siblings, as two sticks that suddenly got married but had a dramatic break up, idk. The thing is to have fun.

When we make it in our own AUs is even better- we have more freedom by giving them a different origin, a different relationship, not only with them, but with the rest of characters in AvA/AvM shorts. Like I said before, the thing is to have fun, be creative and sharing with other's our art 👍being respecful all the time.

I hope I got understood -v-"
