[whosthere54]

Ok ok ok Royal au Royal au ararararah

now to yap about my Royal au cause I’m normal. (Longer post- I just infodump about my AU basically-)

So what I have in drafts is all mainly brothers or prison duo centric, as if you know my fics I usually write from Icarus’s perspective on things. The main ships I would be focusing on are ghaae, nightingstar, Wolftross, and then prison duo- but I have cameos of all of the cannon ships of course. I’m gonna kind of just go through and explain roles of my main guys tho- so hope you like this as a sort of starting summary? I guess?

Icarus is the crown prince of the gilded kingdom. Basically the other full representative of the overworld who’s not Fable. Basically, they are heir to the throne, have to maintain a public image, help Fable out with royal duties and pretty much prepare to be the next monarch to ensure a smooth transition if “mortal king Fable” passes away. (He can’t die- I’ll get to that maybe- but yknow. God.)

I’ll talk about Isla and things later in this post, so I won’t mention it now- but yeah. Icarus is the only heir to the gilded kingdom.

Centross is Icarus’s bodyguard (yes I’m going down that road for the prison duo content. I’m so unpredictable /silly/sarc/lh) Royal guard? Close enough probably. Which- idk if I have to get into what he does. I think you can assume. Protection stuff. He was a former assassin, having used to work with Enderian. I’m doing a cliche maybe- but- yknow- he was sent to kill Icarus, ended up unable to do so… so now he’s a bodyguard for them instead of going back to Enderian. (There’s probably a promise of mutual protection somewhere- I’m sure Icarus would not have let Fable give them a bodyguard before then, and when he did they’d make it everyone’s problem- instead wanting to prove they could protect themself. There’s something there. Yeah.)

Wolftross is yes a thing, I think they were probably together for a while- maybe not long after he first became a royal guard. At Icarus’s request, he can visit Fenris whenever he wants probably. Easton replaces him when he’s gone (even after he became blind- at Icarus’s request he will continue that role. They trust him- and he’s capable.)

In the one thing I wrote, I gave him end features as well. I’m moreso debating on that- but I think it’d be a cool thing as a byproduct of being one of Enderian’s closest advisors and trusted assasin. Or- I give them to him later when he gets to be god. He gets them at some point- for me.

Rae is the crown prince of the end kingdom- full representative of the end that is not Enderian. I’d think she gives him more freedom than Icarus gets from fable, her being the end mother she is. She did have the same I guess cruel past that she does in cannon- I’m trying to figure out how I’m translating s1 into this AU still, and maybe you’ll get a oneshot of that eventually. Atleast the prison arc- of course. He left the gilded kingdom (either with Isla, or later on his own I have drafts for. But- probably with Isla) and lived with Isla for a bit- she runs for help from soul and things like in cannon and she helps hide them for a bit. Though- Isla ends up having Rae stay with Enderian. She probably stays as long as she can without compermising Rae’s safety, but maybe gets caught by Fable eventually.

Fenris is Rae’s bodyguard. He is a former general for the Nether’s army, just like in cannon. (I have to rewatch some of his lore before confidently talking about how he gets to become Rae’s bodyguard, so I’m sorry I won’t have too much info at the moment <3)

He becomes Rae’s bodyguard later- Enderian probably heard of his reputation as “the wolf” and hired him. (May try to include the wolf arc- but am again, trying to figure out how to integrate it.)

Now- basic plot summary? Something of the sort? Yeah. Some random details too cause I have no one train of thought ever and am just writing whatever I think of down. /lh

So for some backstory- Islas story is basically the same as in lore. But it changes for that bit after Rae was born just to adhere to the different circumstances Royal AU brings to the table. So, Rae grows a bit before Isla takes him and runs in this AU- he’s older, couldn’t tell you how old (age is a lie/silly/j) but just. A child. She notices how he’s being treated by Fable, takes him and leaves. She doesn’t take Icarus. There’s a lot of consideration for that fact- of course there is. Their her child. But- they’re not close, Fable makes sure of that. They spend most of their time with him, and their his heir after all. Their disappearance would be the worst to explain. So she doesn’t take them with her.

She takes Rae, and over the course of a few years- stays in a sort of safe house like in cannon, learns the things she does there, goes to soul for help, all that stuff. But she ends up taking Rae to Enderian, he becomes crown prince. She stays with them until it compromises Rae’s safety. Fable finds her, she doesn’t give away that she’d stayed with Enderian and that stays secret for a long time. Fable finds her, messes with her memories and things (he’s messed with Icarus’s too at this point- probably erasing Rae entirely) end she goes into a coma. He locks her away, Icarus doesn’t even know she’s here- and ends up having no memories of her anyways. Only fable knows where she’s locked away. Some tower in the castle sleeping beauty style probably.

Rae grows up in the end kingdom, Icarus grows up in the overworld.

Rae meets Caspian in the end prison- advocating for his freedom and things. He gets him a place in the end kingdom, and they get together at a peaceful festival in the overworld. That is an annual festival- Rae meets aax and takes her there too. He and Cas talk- and probably end up asking Aax out there too- making a whole day out of it probably. It’s a tradition for them, after all.

Aax lives with Cas, and Rae stays with them on weekends? Mayhaps? Something like that. He’s allowed to visit them whenever.

I like to think maybe Cas helps Athena and Bruin run the bakery on occasion. Bed and breakfast. Idk. Rae is definelty still the taste tester on Aax safe foods. And also a waiter on opening day for multiple reasons- one, it’s funny- two, yknow. Royal press. Media(?) purposes. Yknow what I mean hopefully.

Also- end kingdom I think had parts in the overworld and end? Like- overworld has the stronghold portal as the center and then made a kingdom around that, and then there’s an end part of the kingdom. This was probably a result of a peace treaty Isla had led years before between the realms after the war. Because badass mother deserves it. But to explain that- yeah. I think the Nether doesn’t- but has a trading hub spreading through portals and things. Yknow. Just not kingdom- I think the overworld is still more cold to people from the nether so. No kingdom. But portals can be made anywhere instead of having just one like the end, so that makes sense.

Gilded kingdom is just the biggest kingdom in the overworld areas we know- as Fable is the god of creation. I just have cool ideas for kingdom designs. May build them in Minecraft actually who knows- (if I do I will in fact post the pictures)

The Aether kingdom was a thing for souls and stuff as it was in cannon, but fell the same way. Alerion and Will live peacefully in one of the overworld kingdoms living normal lives away from everything, as they deserve.

A lot of the fable characters probably lives in the overworld, and just travel between realms.

Athena’s house probably has an area like his lab, where half is in the overworld and half is in the nether. If not, maybe their bed and breakfast- or atleast she has some nether bakery locations maybe with nether specific treats! Cause I think they deserve it and I just think it’d be cool.

Will has a cartographers shop in his village- like a cartographer villager type thing.

Rae has his archives he runs in his kingdom, there are two- one in the overworld part and one in the nether.

Starbarks definelty exists, does Fenris cannonly in this AU run all of the businesses he runs in actual cannon? Probably not. Do they exist? Probably.

Ven works as a close advisor for Fable, and Ari is hired as a knight or general of a sort for fable. Maybe more like a spy. Cat scratch records exist probably.

The world sisters do exist, most likely- (logistically if this was like a alternate “fable raises Icarus AU” they probably wouldn’t but I can do what I want and I say they’re here cause I love them- /silly)

Addie- Addie idk- maybe they work on like a night shift for the archives? Or like as an intern.

Ulysses- idk where to put Ulysses. Oh you silly fish man you. I will incorporate all the telchin stuff, definetly, I think just think of the cannon lore for that one.

Also- Quixis is there somewhere. Probably not in the same way for plot- but gotta include them in every au somehow /silly

Yeah. Royal AU. I’m eepy so I shut up- but hope you like my rambling ig idk-

I didn’t realize y’all enjoyed this au that much- I appreciate all the excitement about it /gen tehe <3

How dare CC! Venear be out here dropping words like "something." I'll cry.

Will you be making “my blood between your lips” an audiobook? No pressure of course I just would like you know :D

I know it’s a disappointing answer, but sadly probably not 😅

As much as I had a ton of fun writing it and I really love the setting and the versions of some of the Fable characters I created, I was never as attached to Blood as I was Brink, and the unfortunate thing is that as much as I think the audiobook format is really fun and I know a lot of people enjoy it, it’s a big time commitment, which I sadly don’t have the time for right now among other things. It’s part of the reason the Brink audiobook is still in production/on hold after all this time. At the end of the day, the audiobooks are a lot of time spent putting a lot creative effort into a project where I’ve already spent that time on writing it, in a way.

Especially now, where my life commitments limit the time I have for creative projects a lot more, I’ve really been trying to prioritise the time I spend on things and the projects I work on. Whether it’s being part of the SMPs I’m on and storytelling through those, working on things like Cantripped and other podcasts, or writing in general (both editing old fics, writing new ones, and working on new personal projects that I hope to publish someday), they’re projects I find more creatively fulfilling for the amount of time I get to spend on them right now.

Its not that I don’t find My Blood Between Your Lips or the Brink audiobook creatively fulfilling of course, I do a lot, it’s just sadly not something I’m prioritising at the moment, or planning to continue working on past the conclusion of current projects at this point in time.

That being said, if other people in the fandom would ever want to create their own form of podfic or audiobook version of Blood, I’m completely alright with that (with proper crediting and such)!! I know a lot of people in the fandom were really attached to that fic, and if there is a demand for an audio version in the fandom, who knows, I have nothing against people picking that up and running with it themselves! With any of my fics for that matter. I know a ton of people who make fantastic audiobook adaptations of fanfics; podfics are huge part of the fandom ecosystem! It would be an honour to listen to it if anyone did! But it’s just sadly not something I’m personally planning on making anytime soon 🫶 /gen

that was so prison duo coded of caitvi... /silly

[ya-boi-haru]

SQCU Quixis AU where the current Quixis can temporarily summon a Sherb that has been Quixis already to ask for guidance or help.

But it kinda works like "Sophia the First", they don't get to control who exactly gets summoned, but it's someone who can help with their current problem...

To the Sherb that gets summoned, it's either while they're sleeping and in a dream or they go into a trance like state (similar to how Icarus would be when they went through the end portal) and for the time they're summoned, they'd remember their time as Quixis so they can help and they appear in their Quixis attire

[iforgotwhaticalledthis]

this is what happened in that scene right?

Fable SMP: “the Void is welcoming. It is the origin of life and parent to all that came after. The void is gentle and kind and loving. Its embrace is soft and long awaited, and it watches over us all with supportive words and an encouraging touch.”

Bound SMP: “OH GOD OH FUCK OH FUCK THE VOID IS INFECTING THINGS OH GOD ITS EYES THERE’S SO MANY EYES OH GOD ITS GOING TO KILL US THE VOID IS RIPPING THE WORLD APART WHY ARE THERE EYES OH GOD-”

This may be a cop out and really the reason I haven't gotten to finishing Aax's epilogue is just other stuff in my life means I haven't gotten around to it but...

Aax's domain is the unknown. The forgotten. Something not dissimilar to that which is kept in the depths of your mind- something you may not ever get to understand, but that's the point. You don't need to know everything in life- some things will stay when they were as they needed to happen.

I may not ever actually get around to it tho it is something I hope I do, but I don't actually think I'll be too upset if I don't.

I do know they went out there into the ocean and found what they could that remained of the other test subjects. Buried what they could find left of their siblings. They told the story of Ulysses to whoever they found in hopes the tale would help bring peace to them in the same way the stories she was told as a child did.

I don't know, I have thoughts about it and I'll admit some of them are kindof direct parallels to a god in one of the DnD games I play in which I 100% have an AU for where he's a paladin of Thana but that's so niche that's staying for me heh.

So if you're wondering what happened to her? That. There's more to it as there is with any life, but that's the part that wasn't really out there before. ✨
