Talkin mcd werewolves

I always had such a spot spot for the mcd werewolves. Specifically, I really liked how they didn’t go down the Twilight route, keeping traditional anthro and scary designs and not doing Alpha bs (cough cough mystreet).

That being said, the werewolves felt kind of poorly defined to me, the tribes were more like plot devices, appearing and vanishing without any real discussion of the impact. The fact that Bodolf’s tribe was hardly mentioned in season 2 I think shows that they ran out of ideas for the werewolves.

Luckily my brain is absolutely overflowing with ideas about them, so here’s my redesigns and thought process:

To anthro or not to anthro?

While I really liked the choice of anthro werewolf designs, I absolutely suck at drawing anthros. It also felt weird doing that for child characters, I know the series kept kids as normal wolves but does that mean werewolf puberty involves an awkward transition from animal to anthro? It just kind of Icked me out, so I’ve decided to keep all werewolves as full wolf transformations. Unlike twilight though, I’ll be largely referencing Wolfwalkers.

Tribes

I know the series had four tribes, but so far I’ve only needed three for the story. If I ever need more tribes, I’ll add more. I haven’t named them yet either, so I’ll denote them by color for now.

Red Wolves

Og wolf tribe, led by Bodolf and Khira. Wolves in this tribe are smaller than the other tribes, with shorter limbs, tails, and muzzles. They have light patches on their muzzles, above the eyes, and on their paws. Brown and Amber eyes are most common.

Brown Wolves

Yip’s destroyed tribe, and also the type Logan was turned into, hence Yip bonding with him so quickly. They are the largest and stockiest wolf tribe, with wide muzzles and short ears. They have lighter markings under their eyes, on their chests, and the underside of their tails. Green and hazel eyes are most common.

White wolves

Fenrir’s tribe. Medium-sized, but thin and lithe, almost more fox-like than wolf. Large ear tufts, neck ruffs, and tails make them look larger than they are. They have dark markings inspired by huskies. Blue and grey eyes are most common.

All tribes, despite size difference, are significantly larger than actual wolves, and most adults werewolves outweigh the average human.

Werewolf Creation

Werewolves can be born by having one or two werewolf parents. They can also be created by being bitten by a werewolf while in wolf form. The person will become the same tribe as the wolf that bit them. Children’s marking will usually follow basic genetics, but those bitten can develop markings independent of the appearance of the wolf that bit them.

Transformation

Transformations, like in Wolfwalkers, are astral projections. The person does not physically transform, rather their consciousness leaves their body and manifests as a wolf. This most often occurs during sleep, but anything that causes a “disconnect” between mind and body can also cause the transformation. So being knocked unconscious, meditation, or sufficient intense emotion will also do the trick.

Communication

Werewolves in wolf form can still understand spoken language, but they cannot be understood by humans. Werewolves in human form can still understand werewolves in wolf form.

Injury

While transformed, the two forms are still linked. Injuries sustained to either form will transfer to the other. In the same way, so long as one body is being sustained, the other does not have sustain itself. Since the body is technically resting, the wolf does not need sleep, and so long as the wolf hunts, the body does not need food. Hypothetically, werewolves can remain transformed indefinitely. However, there are risks associated with this.

Lost werewolves

In the past, Werewolves were occasionally used in blood sport and hard labor. A massive beast of human intelligence that never needed sleep? It was easy to see why fighting arenas and military generals were eager to capture werewolves and use them for their own gain. Sometimes, they would manage to escape, but they no longer knew where their bodies were. Being separated from their bodies for long periods of time would essentially cause them to go feral. These “lost werewolves” are essentially immortal, the strength and instinct of a wolf combined with a faded but still present human cunning, and no need for sleep. The stigma of werewolves as dangerous is mostly due to the few cases of attacks by lost werewolves. This is what happened to Logan, and also what destroyed Yip’s tribe.

Leaders

No alpha crap in my version, we’re following actual wolf behavior with a leading couple. I don’t necessarily think the tribe is a fully related family unit like wolf packs, bringing new people into the tribes is actually quite common, but most of the tribes definitely follow the idea of “they are our leaders because they take care of us” not for any strength/bloodline reasons.

Now onto the werewolf characters I have so far!

Bodolf and Khira

Leaders of the red wolves. Both have equal authority, though are quite different in their beliefs. Bodolf is more open to working with humans, whereas Khira is less trusting, and unless a human is joining their tribes wants very little to do with humans.

Logan

Turned after an attack by a lost werewolf. Initially struggles with accepting this new part of himself, but becomes more comfortable with support from Donna and Yip. Gains his leader mark after fully accepting his role as Yip’s guardian. His growing family kind of symbolizes the regrowth of a tribe that was almost wiped out.

Yip

Last surviving member of the original brown wolves. Was taken in by Donna and Logan while they searched for his tribe, and more importantly, his body. Eventually Logan and Yip find the ruins of Yip’s tribe, and after an epic showdown with the lost werewolf that turned Logan and attacked Yip’s tribe, are able to bring Yip’s body home.

Leona

Child of Kiki and Zane. Initially human, she was born very weak, and Zoey didn’t have much hope she would survive. Desperate, Kiki took her to the Red Wolves, hoping that turning Leona would give her the strength she needed to make it through. Bodolf was out, so Kiki had to plead to Khira, who has never been fond of her. Khira initially refused, as she had no idea what effects turning a child would have. She also insisted that if she did it, Leona would have to stay with the tribe. Kiki was able to convince her otherwise, and Khira begrudgingly agreed to turn Leona. The turn was successful, and Leona’s health improved, though she has some developmental delays and stunting.

Donna

Le gasp, a significant shift from canon! Not entirely sure if I want her to become a werewolf, but at the same time it would be incredibly cool and give her something else to do in season 2 besides generic mom. If she is turned, it was either an accident by Rollo/Lello, or she intentionally had Logan turn her. She gets her leader mark at this point.

Rollo and Lello

Identical twins, both in human and wolf form. It can be difficult to tell them apart while transformed, though their personality differences make it clear who’s who very quickly. Rollo is energetic and playful, while Lello is more reserved.

Fenrir

Prince of the White Wolves. Unlike the other tribes, during the timeskip his tribe has adopted many human practices. They live in a more traditional kingdom, and have more traditional power structures. For example, Fenrir’s mother has significantly less power than his father, and lacks the leader mark. Fenrir recognizes the problem with his tribe’s new practices, but doesn’t stand up to his father. He is kind, but also cowardly, and when push comes to shove his loyalty stays with his family. Takes the role of leader after his father is killed by Laurance.

Poll: MCD most hated round 1

[ID: An image of Nicole from Minecraft diaries and an image of Fenrir from Minecraft Diaries. End ID]

[dracopetal]

In 2024 I posted 8 new works, and finished another one. I wrote a total of 94,275 words. This year everything I wrote was for Harry Potter.

I wrote for three fests this year:

For Drizzle fest I wrote the fires (1971 words) (Luna/Ginny)

They had been running from the fires for days now, and it was just the two of them left.

For HD Hurt/Comfort fest I wrote a small room under the earth (2335 words, implied noncon warning) (Draco/Harry)

You stay in the small room under the earth, and do not escape. 

For Unleashed fest I wrote Run, Rabbit, Run (46809 words) (Draco/Harry)

Harry finds an injured rabbit in the Forbidden Forest.

I wrote one drarry microfic: Thread (286 words)

I filled two more fills on my Bad Things Happen Bingo:

My Love is a Curse (2905 words, MCD) (Draco/Harry) (prompted by @indigo-scarf) (For 'Defeated and Trophified')

Madness is the destiny of the Malfoy line. 

Visitor (2529 words) (Draco/Harry) (For 'Prison Visit)

Harry visits Draco in Azkaban every fortnight.

Two shorter fics that weren't for fests, both rated E:

Sirius, Harry (and Malfoy too) (5619 words) (Sirius/Harry/Draco)

Malfoy wants to be used. Good thing Sirius and Harry want to use him.

Gobshite: (3323 words) (Draco/Harry)

Harry finally finds a way to shut Draco up.

And I finally finished my longer fic:

In the Woods Somewhere (54497 words, 28498 added this year) (E, noncon warning) (Draco/Harry, Draco/Fenrir)

Draco can't remember what the world was like before Fenrir took him. His life is the cabin and the woods that surround it. But one night in winter, Fenrir kidnaps a man he calls an old enemy, and Draco's life is forever changed.

[m--rtyr]

Incredibly bad bit that could've been done in MCD: Fenrir and Aph are legally married but in other relationships, but occasionally one of them just shows up wherever the other is to do "married people activities" (neither of them know what these are. One time they get drunk and get rid of half the bandits near Scaleswind). They then go back to hating each other.

They’re told to ‘consummate’ their marriage but Aph runs off of modern lingo (and general stupidity), and fenrir is purposely incompetent and acts like he doesn’t know what that means, and they just set fire to a bale of hay and watch it burn to commemorate their marriage.

“That’s how this’ll end” “no, our marriage’ll end much, much worse that that.” “Hm. For real.”

mcd ein love interest??? who is it? how do they meet? are they an oc or a pre-existing character? im extremely intrigued

To sum up the love interest; I’m a Chronic Blazein shipper-

So they are already a pre-existing character. How they meet is interesting; due to things in the rewrite being different, instead of Aphmau coming across Michi first, it is Aaron and the werewolf pups after escaping.

Summing it up, Aaron manages to take control of the wolf tribe being the Ultima (I’m still deciding whether Fenrir is good or bad in this rewrite), and Blaze, upon seeing how scared the pups are, manages to run with them. The pups, Dottie, Rylan and Daniel, only know one place to go; Phoenix Drop.

Of course, the people there are distrusting, but eventually the pups earn their trust and stay safe and protected.

So, Blaze is a guard of Phoenix Drop come the time Ein shows up. Ein is…less than interested after all he did just come out of a place he’s been locked in.

Of course, after a bit of time, his stupidity and attempts at helping Ein grow on him, and eventually Ein manages to move on from who he lost and gets with Blaze-

So yeah! Blaze is Ein’s love interest

[pheonixdrop]

Hey what if the marriage in The Vows We Take actually happened?

[gaybae1021]

Day 27: AU or OC

Oh boy, a chance to revisit my first and only (not counting Barret and Puffin) mcd oc! Meet Melody!

She was originally created as an adopted daughter for Garrance back when I was middle school. She was Abby’s daughter, but she was killed off in the story so the boys took her in. Also she had telekinesis or something like that.

I revisited her as part of an event on the Aphmau amino several years ago, where I removed her powers and connections to Garrance and just let her be Abby’s kid with Fenrir as her father. I liked the conflict arising between Fenrir’s vengeance arc and how he has to let that go to be with Abby and Melody.

This time was more of a strict redesign, her story is pretty much the same. But with Abby getting a redesign since I made her the daughter of Teony and Jeffory (lavender), and the prominent birthmark being incorporated into Aphs design instead, I wanted to shake things up.

I decided to make her and Fenrir albino; I thought it was a fun way to keep her original blonde hair, and it also solved some problems in Fenrir’s story for me. I know it doesn’t make perfect genetic sense unless Abby is a carrier, but I’m willing to handwave that with fantasy logic.

She obviously takes after her mother a bit more, but has her dads eyes and shares his unique all-white wolf form. I liked making her absolutely swallowed by fluff. And also her second dress was already cute, so I didn’t change that much.

Harry Potter Rec Fest Day 11 - Dark Fics

I don't seek out a lot of dark fics. I'll read them if they cross my browser or kindle, but I gravitate more toward fluff and save the dark stuff for "published fiction" or just "the news". That's probably why these fics stuck out to me particularly, because I wasn't left with the warm fuzzy feeling. Some dark things for @hprecfest day 11 ...

The Unknown Door by @amywaterwings Pairing: Draco x Harry Word count: 60,970 Rating: E

This fic was part of @hderised last year. Boy does it pack a wallop of feelings. Get ready for addiction, death, child neglect, torture, people experiencing homelessness, discrimination against all kinds of people and creatures. It's a lot. It's also really real because of all that. @amywaterwings creates an apartment building filled with unique and uniformly loveable (but still dark) original characters and the lore goes deep. A beautifully despairing peek into a less magical part of Magical Britain and how hopeless it can feel even when you are in a position to help. It does have a happy ending though!

Death is Not Fit to House Love by @starlitsilvereyes Pairing: Draco x Harry Word count: 20,919 Rating: E

I'm hesitant to say too much about this fic for fear of spoiling it. This was written for @hd-fan-fair Career Fair this year and I screamed aloud at the end. Featuring Politician Draco and Hit-Wizard Harry Potter.

Serious content warnings: Character death, discussion of suicide, violence

A Nasty Piece of Work written and recorded by @picascribit Pairing: Fenrir Greyback/OFC Word count: 11,198 Length: 1:10:00 Rating: E

Hard to believe that this is written by the same @picascribit who brought us cute little Scorbus at Protego Club with all their queer friends. This fic is traditional DARK. Like make you sick to your stomach dark. But also such an interesting character study. Recorded excellently, as usual, by the author themself.

Serious content warnings: Violence, Rape, Non-con, Underage, Major Character Death - this checks all the boxes, literally all the boxes on AO3

White, the colour of flowers by @lumosatnight Podfic read by Cailynwrites Pairing: Draco x Harry Word count: 3,203 Length: 23:35 Rating: T

A beautiful, poetic multi-ending fic taking place during the second war. Draco has Hanahaki disease and it's angsty, but it has a happy ending. Mostly it's just like floating through sad space, but like, in a good way.

@starlitsilvereyes writes an incredible story here. It's non-linear, which I personally think is incredibly difficult and impressive. It's suspenseful, has jump scares, and ends with horrible horrible things happening. Possibly the darkest fic I've ever read. Enjoy!
