#Go nuts

[endomentendo]

totally not asking this cuz im interested in doing this or anything but uhhhhh

how does one make an au........ or how do you go about making yours?

Honestly it’s easier than it looks.

How wonderland formed was when I compared the two medias and saw how somewhat similar they are and decided to make it for fun.

I suggest an easy one for your first like tadc x undertale or something.

But if you want a more original idea, just ask yourself a what if question and how you can transform it into its own story.

For an example: @sm-baby’s carnival au asks the question; what if the main characters were ai instead of players. But still dives into the characters emotional turmoil.

Another: @allhailthequeenuwu’s madness au is taking wonderland and undertale with Tadc, but conveys some storylines from the two medias that creates its own narrative.

You can even just go for genre change or whatever you’re fond of. @ark-fork’s digital horror land makes tadc but in a fun horror focused story. Creating character designs that fit the genre and story. And @pikavani’s office au is based on the office and their fondness for the slice of life.

It can even be just world building and cute interactions like @vikita-doodles’s digital world au.

Really, it just depends on you! What are your interests and what are your ideas you want to explore. Even if it’s focused on a favorite ship or just a nonsensical idea, go for it!

Just look into your favorite au’s, stories, interests, and characters and just go nuts with it.

Will it be perfect? Heck no, there’s many flaws in our own storytelling that only makes us love it more. Explore as much as you want and can cause it’s great foundation in making your own original story for folks to gush about. Even if it’s an au.

idk if this has been asked before but what is your art process usually? or at least what brushes do u use? ive been trying to replicate what you do on your stuff but i really cant achieve it

i use the basic binary brush in paint tool sai for my lines,

my lineart is just cleaned up sketch (i erase a lot of lines) tho i leave some mess because i think it gives a lot of character to my drawings and i like how your brain fills up the lacks in my lines.

this is my shading brush if you want to copy it, tho i tweak it allllllll the time it is not set in stone

when i'm done i will go to photoshop with the finished picture and duplicate the layer like this

add a little bit of screen or lighten layer mode

and then

do a bit of gaussian blur

and then at the end lower the opacity to whatever i like it varies so try out some things

after that i save the image, and put it back to photoshop and i add a bit of random noise to give it some texture

i think the bloom and slight soft shine around the colors looks really nice, a little dreamy which is fun.

Also real quick some secret sauce i like to use for fun text

i like to rasterize it first so it is a png that i can manipulate much easier

do a bit of liquify on the text

and just have a bit of fun in this window that opens, pull on the text make it have some fun shapes

it can do some fun stuff like this

Whenever I want to start a new show, movie, book, etc, I do a quick search on Tumblr just to get the VibeTM

And whenever said fandom has a shit ton of vaguely (or explicitly) religious symbolism in their fanart, i know i'm in for a treat

Red Robin Wizardly

.. I want a fic where Tim accidentally becomes Constantine's wizard apprentice. Or otherwise just accidentally becomes a wizard. Wizard Tim. And like he'd be really interested in/frustrated with the minutiae of the magic. Maybe that's how he accidentally wizardifies. He sees Constantine do something physically impossible, becomes obsessed with it, accidentally learns enough to be a wizard. Oops. But actually I bet he'd love it.

Live and let ship people. I don’t care what you like, go nuts, but please don’t flood my ship tag with reasons why yours is better. I have my own reasons and you raining on my parade isn’t going to change my mind.

Anyway bkdk are soulmates, canon supports bkdk more than any other ship, and I do not have to flood the other tags with this message to enjoy it. Thank you.

Somebody has probably already proposed this but I have this theory that Kaeya's father abandoned him to save him.

Starting off, I want to lay down some ground stuff revealed in 4.7.

Clothar established the Abyss Order and the ilk obviously. In his bid to save Caribert and Khaenri'ah, the Loom of Fate was started and an eight year old Caribert was used to construct the Loom. We also know constructing the Loom involves creating an artificial god, which is why they have the body of Osial. This fits in a lot with this underlying theme of child sacrifice to divinity in a bid to preserve or restore civilization (think The Sun Children and Ruu alongside Caribert as examples).

Next, let's look at the significance of the curse. Kaeya somehow seem unaffected by the curse in a way that differs from everyone else. He is not a hilichurl/other abyssal entity and from what we see of him, his body is not taken by the curse the way Dainsleif's is. He also grows and develops normally, unaffected by concepts of immortality. This is weird because even children that aren't fully Khaenri'ahn (like Caribert) were affected in some manner so why does Kaeya fall outside most aspects of the curse? The only thing that could be affected is his right eye which was hidden even when Crepus found him. We'll come back to the eye thing so put a pin in it for now.

One of the hardest parts of this theory is proving Kaeya's father didn't want to leave him, but I think I can do that. In the note we find squirreled away in the Knights of Favonius HQ, there's a somewhat burned note. It was originally written in a child's handwriting and rewritten in an adults. It's implied this was Kaeya's father aiding him. What's interesting is that in the written

This itself shows a deviance from the Abyss Order. The Abyss Order seeks to restore Khaenri'ah but this aligns with Dainsleif's mindset, the idea that Khaenri'ah is embers and to chase its restoration is to be unable to move on from your past.

Kaeya notes the paper was discreetly saved because there was a policy of leaving no physical remains of their existence, as though he was stopping them from being tracked. Kaeya also adds this:

Kaeya's father was grieving in a way Kaeya couldn't understand having grown up in Mondstadt. There's many things that could be grieved, Khaenri'ah as one, but I think it's the leaving of Kaeya based on his words from 3.1:

It's obvious he knows this hurt's Kaeya but he begs for his forgiveness. This aligns with the idea of grief, him grieving writing with his son and burning the evidence because it will truly leave him with nothing to remember his son, especially with the erosion aspect of the immortality.

This also emphasizes the Ragnvindrs as where Kaeya's father meant him to go. Kaeya's father left him in the homeland of Caribert's mother, the city of freedom, when it's implied Venti was slumbering. He intentionally left him where the Ragnivindrs would take him in. He made this move during a severe storm, one so severe Kaeya could've died, when it would be hardest to follow or see them. This aligns with the spy part but let's put a pin in that too.

The next part of this theory to tackle is why Kaeya's father did this in the first place. My proposal is that he was to be used as the body of the artificial god before Osial.

Removing the pin in the eye topic, there's a big theme of Khaenri'ahn characters having an eye covered. Dainsleif, Pierro, King Irmin, and Kaeya... It's not weird. It stands out with Kaeya however because we don't know what's wrong with the eye. It's injured now but only after his fight with Diluc. He's not blind in it either.

We also know the eye of the first field tiller was vital to the Loom.

Kaeya isn't just the least cursed, he's also the closest to divinity. He gained a Vision, which completely contradicts his Khaenri'ahn heritage in a way that even the game questions. It's also a Cryo vision, one that highlights ambition related to feeling isolated from or stuck between two aspects of one's identity (ex. Shenhe being raised by adeptus yet not fitting in fully because she's human while also not fitting in with humans due to being raised by adepti).

I think Kaeya's father left Kaeya in Mondstadt with the Ragnivindrs to protect him from the Order. The Ragnivindrs are one of the biggest families with power in Mondstadt and being part of their family would put Kaeya in the public eye. Not only that, but he's now under Venti's protection, who obviously holds no grudge against the Khaenri'ahns.

Circling back to the spy point now, why would he tell him that? To keep him there. Kaeya could take his chances and cut and run. Giving him a reason to stay would ensure he didnt throw himself to the wolves after his father left. A spy has to check in periodically to gather the intel, but nobody came to get information from Kaeya. The spy aspect was obviously a cover that further shows that Kaeya's father was not really affiliated with the Order.

Well... What about the line of being their last hope?

I don't think his father actually meant the last hope for Khaenri'ah's return. I think he meant the last hope for Khaenri'ah to move on and heal. In the same way Dainsleif believes the remnants still lucid should find a way to live on in spite of what happened, Kaeya's father wanted Kaeya to do the same. Khaenri'ah will live on in his son living a happy life, safe from the Abyss Order, a Khaenri'ah that isn't corrupted by the Five Sinners and the Cataclysm.

Kaeya's father left him in Mondstadt because it was the City of Freedom, and from what I extrapolated from the above evidence, that was because he wanted his child and the remnants of Khaenri'ah to be free from the Abyss. Kaeya himself says it in his annotations, he cannot fully understand his father's grief because the life he has in Mondstadt freed him mostly of those burdens. He doesn't really hold a grudge against his father because of it.

In the same way that Caribert is half Khaenri'ah and half Mondstadt, so is Kaeya, and ultimately Kaeya ended up living the life Caribert ached for within the Loom. The parallels between Caribert and Kaeya and their fathers are intentional. Caribert holds a resentment for his father because he sacrificed his son for Khaenri'ah; Kaeya doesn't seem to resent his father because Kaeya's father seems to have sacrificed Khaenri'ah for his son.

Thank you for reading, I know there's probably holes in this somwhere but this is just a theory based on my interpretation of Kaeya's father over several events. I hope you enjoyed this, have a great day, mwah!
