#I may or may not be planning an interesting crossover drawing

[terastal-luxray]

You know, technically Smile for Me and Smiling Friends could take place in the same universe.

If we ignore the fact that Smile for Me takes place in 1994.

[teecupangel]

Desmond reborn as this breed of dragon. There are no flaws in this plan. Native to Italy so wouldn’t be out of place in Ezio’s era, naturally Assassin colours, and as far as I know Imperator are upper middleweight/lower heavyweight in size so he’s big and can carry full crew of Assassins/mercenaries. He could help defend Monterriggioni from Borgia invasion & probably save Mario’s life.

There’s not yet a full analysis sheet for this breed of dragon but there are a few more drawings in Atrocitas’ tag that can be used as size comparisons with other dragons, and if you then hop over to Genevieve’s tag (golden-white dragon) you’ll get an accurate picture of Imperator size (Genevieve is compared with her crew & Captain in one drawing)

Additional info from @wynterwulf7

More info on More info on Imperator/Asta di Marte (bc I just remembered that post that explored it a lil bit)

I’m going to assume we’re making a Temeraire x Assassin’s Creed crossover where Desmond is reborn as a dragon of that breed.

Of course, we’re here to make Desmond’s life ‘interesting’ so we’ll set this up where Desmond died in canon and is reborn in Renaissance Italy with the dragon elements of Temeraire.

He wakes up alone in one of the most remote places in Tuscany so he still thinks he’s in a world where dragons don’t exist. This means that he’d spend a few years trying to hide as he grows up.

Of course, just because he’s hiding, doesn’t mean that people won’t know about him. He’s a dragon trying to learn how to be a dragon in a world where dragons exist and is known by the people.

Sooner or later, he gets captured because he was trying to not hurt anyone.

And that’s when he learned that dragons isn’t something that could be considered as an anomaly in this world.

If anything, it was quite ‘common’.

Desmond is still a growing dragon though and he’s been noted as ‘wild that needs training’.

Whatever plan they have is cut off because Desmond learned that it’s December.

Of 1476.

There’s no big entrance during the execution.

Desmond used his large body to crash into the Auditores’ prison and performed a jailbreak with two reluctant men (Petruccio is totally on board though).

From there, it becomes more of a case of House Auditore becoming Firenze’s enemy number one because of said jailbreak.

But hey…

At least they have a large powerful dragon is totally on board with protecting Monteriggioni and helping with the defenses (and counterattacks).

Giovanni is absolutely sus about it the entire thing because Desmond can’t be controlled or even guided. Giovanni tried to get him to take them to Spain but he was adamant on taking all of them to Monteriggioni.

The fact that Mario doesn’t know ‘who’ Desmond is and how he knew of Monteriggioni only served to make Giovanni more suspicious that there’s something more to this entire thing that they’re not seeing.

Something like…

Desmond may be getting orders from someone else who wanted everyone in the Auditore family in Monteriggioni for some reason.

Yeah.

That someone?

Is Desmond himself.

But it’s not like Desmond can try to make them understand him.

He’s too busy trying to get these rowdy dragons that Mario purchased for his mercenaries to stop trying to bite him or groom him or…

Honestly.

Desmond doesn’t know what these dragons want from him.

KND Community Challenge

1: when did you start watching the show?

 I think it was near the end of 2023? I was introduced to the fandom by one of the comics that @fallen-gabrielle posted. I was a fan of old fashioned cartoons already and loved the unique art style! A few comics and several episodes later, I was hooked!

2: favorite season?

I haven’t watched trough the entire series yet(Currently on season 3). But Iike season three for all the new characters introduced!

3: favorite episode?

T.U.R.N.I.P.

T.H.E.-F.L.Y.

P.I.N.K.E.Y.E. (ick)

5: favorite character?

Favorite character(s)!

Rachel(I often feel her ‘I have been everyone’s councilor at this point and I am tired of people’ feeling. Is this an INFJ thing?),

Hoagie(He reminds me of my cousin + we have the shared love for bad puns & dad jokes!),

Abby(Cool!),

Sally Sanban(I am obsessed with her for some reason),

Nigel’s grandson(Same reason with Sally. Dunno why), 

6: did you cry when you watch OP INTERVIEWS?

I didn't cry but It felt quite bitter sweet. I’m the sort of person who watches the end before finishing a series. So I kind of scrolled through the entire wiki and watched I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S. before actually watching the C:KND. It is an inevitable fate for all kids to grow up to grow old and gray at some point. But I have never seen characters grown up in a cartoon before. The whole episode made KND hit a bit too close to home to me. 

Ironically the episode that made me upset the most ended up being one of the reasons that I like about the KND. 

You will grow up

But you will never grow out of some things

7: funniest moment?

Wally saying “C’mon she already has every single rainbow monkey there is!”

And then watching in horror as the rainbow monkey aircraft coming into view before saying;

“Oh yeah, except that one.”

8: saddest moment?

Abby giving up in Operation M.A.U.R.I.C.E. after facing that every one she knows and loves in the KND will turn into teens & forget about her eventually. 

9: favorite KND artist?

Again, can’t pick just one! This is going to be long so the list of artists and why I like them are listed below

But the ones in my fanfiction are currently 1x362, 60x86, 2xAce(the kid), 83x84, 23x35

12: what's one thing you love about the fandom?

The thousands of fan theories, fan fiction with their own interesting head cannons, multiple aus and crossovers, and of course the beautiful fanart with unique art styles!

13: what's one thing you hate about the fandom?

Those weird pedo & insest shippers that keep spawning out of nowhere

14: do you wish there were more die hard KND fans in the fandom?

YES. A thousand times YES.

15: when did you start drawing KND art?

Near the start of May 2024 and have been drawing almost daily ever since! But It’s mostly animation plans and sketches so I don’t post often nowadays 

:P

16: how old were you when you started drawing KND art?

Hm, will answer that on my birthday.

17: how old are you now and are you still drawing KND art?

Same with the answer above! I will answer on my birthday

18: what's one thing you wish would stop in the fandom?

The pedo & insest ships, art thefts, rude requests and just disrespecting other people.

19: quick pick your favorite 2×4?

M.A.R.B.L.E.(Mustardy Armament Releases Big Loud Explosion) and 

G.A.R.G.O.C.Y.C.L.E.(Granite Augmented Rocket Glider Outstandingly Creates Your Cool Looking Escape)!

Questions from Interest Check

Hello all! Thanks for all of your interest, and thank you for filling out the Interest Check! We still have quite a bit left until the Interest Check closes, but I figured I would answer a few Interest Check/Ask Box questions now, and answer the rest closer to the end of the Interest Check:

Is traditional art accepted in this exchange? Do art gifts require a specific resolution/file quality/etc?

Yes, traditional art is accepted! Traditional art must be shared via a high-quality scan and/or photograph. We do not have any specific resolution requirements, but as long as it meets the standards of art submissions (Minimum: Colored Sketch Maximum: Colored Full Piece (w/ background)) then it should be fine. During the event, we will have two check-ins, and if anyone has any questions about image quality, etc, you can absolutely reach out to me with any pictures they may have of your work!

Would AUs be allowed? if so, how would it work when submitting the form? For example, If I had an AU I wanted artwork of, would I have to explain what the basis of it was & offer artwork references of the designs if there were any? I would expect including AUs would really complicate things & it wouldn't be allowed for that reason, but I felt it was worth asking anyways

Personally, I think having AUs might be an interesting way to do this years gift exchange. Last year we had a lot of OCs set in the Layton universe, and I think it might be an interesting way to change it up with allowing AUs (We didn't necessarily NOT allow AUs last year, it just didn't come up.) This year, we will have several prompt lines that people can post one prompt each in, and a requirement will be all submissions have to have at least one base canon Layton prompt (which can include ships), just because that will make it infinitely easier to pair people up. If someone were to submit an AU, it would require some sort of pdf or drive file that anyone can access where people can see the jist of the AU with any relevant images. It will also require a short blurb about the AU (that is easy to read- please don't send an essay) with what it's about, and then (if the prompter would like) prompts alongside that. Again, I'm quickly mentioning that the prompter will be required to have an non-AU prompt, just given that it will be hard to pair people up with people who do/ do not want to draw Professor Layton AUs, but I do think its an interesting idea! People who submit AUs will not have a guarantee that their AU will be drawn, but it will certainly be an option that the person who is drawing the gift can take if they want.

If I chose "Crossover Pieces" in 4th question, will I have an opportunity to draw someone's PL OCs too (For example PLvsPW and PL OC/s in it)?

Probably? It really depends where the interest check lands, but right now it's a 50/50 about whether people would like to do just base canon Layton art or include Layton OCs. As mentioned above, I personally think it would be really interesting to do a gift exchange that allows AUs and OCs; however, it will be infinitely more difficult to organize. It really depends on how many people are planning on joining the gift exchange!

No, but we will require at least 2 social medias (which CAN include email) to take part! This is in case we need to contact you via other means. The social medias that will be included will include Twitter, Tumblr, Discord, and Email. The reason for the limit with social media is just to make it a lot manageable for us to pair people together, especially given that we are hosting this on Twitter/Tumblr mainly, and people usually enjoy being able to actually give their gift to their own Secret Buddy (which would require people only on tumblr to be paired with people either only on tumblr or both on tumblr/twitter, etc).

Lastly, I'm going to preface that we will try our hardest with pairing everyone up with the best person possible! Doing so is, of course, a bit difficult given that we primarily will not be pairing spoiler characters/games with people who have not played that game, but we will try our best. We're very excited to see what people create- we had a blast last year with hosting this on Twitter, and we're very excited to host it again!

Some smaller updates: We now have a little blurb talking about what a gift exchange/secret santa is on the website! Feel free to check that out if you would like to know what this event is.

We've also set up the Gift Exchange 2024 role on our PLGiftExchange Discord Channel! Please join us here!

Any new questions submitted will be added in a reblog from this post within the next couple days!

[golby-moon]

so I did a thing for the @cdrcrossoverbang in which I threw some Stranger Things destiel AU content in the mix and caught an author :0 bam magic

this was an interesting banner to do. bikes are awful to draw and so are trees but uh oh I did both. thankfully nothing exploded and thanks to some helpful people in the artist channel for this bang's server, I learned how to layer the trees and such in the background and also added some spooky fog. the trees in front still kinda look bad though lol that's on me

(spoilers but that bike is supposed to be Jo's (as she's filling the role of Will) and is intentionally not girly or anything, and the house is supposed to be where she and Ellen live. so close yet so far)

here's the art piece I originally submitted, with Dean and Cas camped out in a little blanket fort complete with that weird clunky walkie-talkie thing. Dean totally saw Cas and immediately decided he needed more flannel, though the colors of their flannels are intentionally contrasting with Dean's being a warm color and Cas' being a cold one. the same but different. also Cas just looks good in purple imo

I don't usually do reverse bangs for whatever reason but this was kinda chill and I've been wanting to read a ST destiel fic but didn't wanna write it so what better plan than to dump fic ideas in reverse bangs amirite. I now have more ideas to dump but nowhere to dump them oh no though they're pretty disastrous ideas so maybe that's for the best :/

(also I may or may not have signed up for this bang as an author as well don't ask me what happened there I'm indecisive okay?)

the fic this is made for it called "Devil's Fingers" by @hexentaenzerin for the casdean reverse crossover bang (which I may or may not have been calling deancas bang instead uh)

[magicvicky1]

A crossover drawing with Archie and Idw…Look it may seem random but hear me out LOL

When you stop to look at it, Khan and Surge have a pretty similar backstory; two characters who were kidnapped by mad scientists and forced to become cyborg soldiers. You can also add to the fact that they both can be arrogant and have their anger issues, though Surge’s case is a bit more extreme mostly because she also has a bit of Scourge in her lol

Idk if Surge was written with these similarities in mind, I'd said that is mostly because her and Kit’s backstory itself is based on Androids 18 and 17 from Dragon Ball…But it is still something interesting and worth noting!

Now I just wonder how their interactions could go…It would definitly start with them fighting each other, but maybe once Surge learns about Khan’s past, she would try to convince him to help her on her big revenge plan against Robotnik (Sonic too, but for that it would change the focus a bit xd). Khan could either rejected it yet understand her pain and try taking her to the good path/“I can fix her” move…Or say fuck it and help her kill Eggman LOL There are a lot of possibilities for this!

°•. INTRO! .•°

Hi, I'm Olive! Welcome to my blog! :))

°•. ON THIS BLOG... .•°

This blog is F1-centric but I will probably reblog stuff about my other interests from time to time, and around April-May you can probably expect a massive influx of yap about Eurovision lol

This blog will mainly just be me yapping about my opinions on F1 stuff, and I also plan on making YouTube videos to yap even more but we'll see how that goes. But I'm also into photography so I might post random dumps of photos I'm proud of, and I'm also trying to get back into art so you might eventually see me posting fan art! I'm ALSO working on a F1 DBH AU/crossover fic, but I am very much a plotter and a perfectionist when it comes to writing so I wouldn't expect to see anything of that anytime soon :')

Please note as well that this is my first time using Tumblr so I'm kinda figuring this all out as I go along!

°•. ABOUT ME! .•°

Age: 18 Pronouns: it/they preferred, but any are fine! Country: UK 🇬🇧 Sign: Taurus ♉ Interests: F1, DPS, Eurovision, Minecraft, osu! + a bunch of other random stuff lol Hobbies: Photography, drawing (kinda), reading (also kinda)

I'm currently at uni so if I ever go inactive for ages it's probably because I'm working on some assignment I left to the last minute :')

Also I love misusing grammar for dramatic effect, I pinkie promise I know how to do good grammars I just choose not to !!

°•. F1 STUFF .•°

First race: Singapore '23 (mentally I am still there) Top 3 current drivers: Carlos Sainz, Oscar Piastri, Franco Colapinto Top 3 retired drivers: Seb Vettel, Kimi Räikkönen, Nico Rosberg Top 3 tracks: COTA, Brazil, Singapore

I can't bring myself to support teams anymore to be honest :') was a McLaren supporter but they screwed up the WDC so hard I just can't even with them at this point smh

On that note I was Not backing Lando for the WDC. I'm SORRY I just think it's insane that a driver with 3 career wins could've been world champion. SUE ME.

I also have several opinions about Hungary '24 that I will make an entire post about at some point but long story short, it should Not have played out like that and I will never forgive McLaren .

I'm always happy to yap about anything F1 related or debate/discuss opinions (respectfully!!) so if you want to share your thoughts or hear my thoughts on something, drop an ask !!

Questions and Clarifications

We're thrilled with how many people have expressed interest in this already and are gearing up for an amazing event!

Here's a quick round up of some of the questions we've gotten so far....

(that's how you should picture me answering all these questions)

Does it have to be a new fic or can you participate with an existing fic / new chapter of an old fic?

Must be a new fic written specifically for the bang.

Can it be an AU?

AUs are completely welcome. So long as the focus is on the SPOP characters, you can put them in whatever situations you wish!

Can it be a crossover?

While characters from other properties can cameo, the main focus of the story should be on the SPOP characters.

Can you post something from an existing AU of yours?

A new standalone fic in an existing AU of yours is fine! In other words, if someone could hop into your Bang fic without having read anything else of your AU and still follow it, that would work.

Can I write my own fic, but also sign up to illustrate someone else's?

Sure! Just let us know on your sign up form so we know what is going on.

What kind of draft is due on March 31st?

The objective of that check in is to show to the mods that your fic is close enough to finished that you are on track to post it on time. There may still be typos, it might still need a lot of editing, but it should be at least 75% complete.

This step is to ensure we're assigning artists to the fics that are nearly ready for the event and not giving someone a writing partner that has barely started.

What happens if I don't get my draft in on time?

While only writers who get their first draft in by the March 31st deadline are eligible for an artist partner, writers who complete their draft after that are still welcome to post their fic as part of the event and will still be listed alongside the other content. They just will not have the chance to be paired with an artist.

Are there any limitations on what fics can be about? i.e. does it have to center around certain ships or characters or prompts?

As long as the focus is on the SPOP characters, anything goes! The only thing to keep in mind is that artists get to choose with fics they illustrate. So the more appealing or interesting to draw your idea is, the more likely you are to attract an amazing artist.

Any restrictions on mature content?

Generally, it's open to whatever, but, for the comfort of everyone involved, we'd appreciate if it was nothing too... let's say controversial. If you're not sure, feel free to ask. Keep in mind, the previous answer about artists getting to choose applies here too.

Will you be sharing the Big Bang content on this Tumblr blog?

Yes! We plan to share links to all the fics as they are posted.

Can I participate without joining the Discord?

Unfortunately, no. This event is hosted by the SPOP Creative Flex and as such is run under the guidelines of that community. While Tippen is the head mod of this event, she is not on the mod team for the server itself so if you have questions or issues about the SPOP Creative Flex server specifically (including appealing a prior ban or other issue), you can contact the server mods through the email listed here.

What should I write? I can't pick!

That, I can't help you with. But I would say pick the idea that is begging to be written, particularly if it's large scale and exciting. It is called a BIG Bang after all! Think epically!

Any other questions? Our askbox is open!

Terrible Fic Idea #85: The Old Guard, but make it Assassin's Creed

My brother has always been a big fan of Assassin's Creed, but I never gave the games a shot until recently, when it seemed a natural progression from all the Crusades research I've been doing for The Old Guard fic I want to write but probably never will. Once I realized Isu bullshit could be a perfect explanation for TOG immortality, this (incredibly self-indulgent) crossover was born.

Or: What if Merrick Pharmaceuticals was a competitor of Abstergo Industries?

aka the And The River of Time fic

Just imagine it:

Pharmaceutical research is an expensive, cut-throat business. Viagra is a $2 billion dollar a year industry. Humira, the blockbuster drug of 2018, sold nearly $20 billion in the US alone. So I imagine if you're a pharmaceutical CEO of limited morals and great ambition, it might seem like a better idea to steal ideas from your competitor who seems to hit it out of the ballpark every time instead of pouring billions of dollars into what may turn out to be an unfruitful venture.

Enter Hugh Merrick, father of Steve Merrick and founder of Merrick Pharmaceuticals. Needing a blockbuster and desperate to get one over on Abstergo, he hires a hacker to slip into Abstergo's servers and find him the ripest, juiciest plum they can sometime in the early 2000s, before the (modern) events of the games or the 2019 TOG movie.

The hacker comes back with the schematics for the Animus.

The idea of genetic memories seems absurd, but Hugh figures that if Abstergo has been using the Animus since the 1980s to get ahead, there's no reason he can't do it too - all he needs is a single Piece of Eden and all his problems are solved.

Hugh builds the Animus and has the hacker go back into Abstergo's systems looking for a candidate to put into it. But finding someone with Assassin blood seems dangerous - they're likely to be an assassin too and could be dangerous if they try to escape, plus the Templars killed off nearly all of them. Templar descendants are out because most are Templars themselves and if Hugh's plan is to succeed he heeds to stay off their radar for as long as possible.

The hacker returns with Abstergo's list of people who may be useful if all other avenues fail. It contains a list of people who were peripherally involved during the invents that interest them - mainly high-ranking courtiers close to Popes Alexander VI and Julius II - and their descendants. They might know things about events of Ezio's time.

Enter Joe and Nicky.

For the past few hundred years, their primary cover identities involve being the children or grandchildren of their previous cover story, all the way back to their first deaths. There are fewer questions and you get to "inherit" all your old stuff.

This method has worked quite well for them - until Merrick learns that their "ancestors" were part of the court of Pope Julius II from 1497 (when he was still Bishop of Ostia) until his death in 1513. Nicky was his private secretary, Joe was a court painter, and contemporary sources suggest they were highly placed enough to know whatever Pope Julius II knew about Ezio's apple. Such as where Ezio might have hidden it.

It's not an unreasonable plan, except for the pesky fact of Joe and Nicky's immortality. After all, the animus is designed to draw on genetic memory, not the subject's own memories. And even if it can be used to view memories laid down in their own genes 500 years ago - which is doubtful, - there's a high likelihood of it killing them - and if Hugh were to learn of their immortality, things would only get worse for them. But they have little choice once they're captured and brought to Hugh's secret research bunker somewhere north of Inverness.

What follows is a largely self-indulgent stroll through the more interesting episodes of Joe and Nicky's life together.

Nicky's first go in the animus is a jumbled, confused mess as Hugh's tech minion learns the ropes as she goes. Nicky ends up hopscotching through his early memories - for instance, a memory where he's learning how to use a sword as a young squire jumps to him using the same move during the Siege of Jerusalem. That strand of memory continues on for a bit until another interaction gets him sent into the memory of another battle/training session/conversation with the person in question and so on.

Joe's first time in the animus goes a little better, as Hugh realizes that his minion needs to learn how to program the animus before they put their most valuable subject into it, and so let's her learn with Joe. Hugh's minion (who is really beginning to regret taking this job) succeeds, pulling Joe into the genetic memory of one of his ancestors: al-Kahina, an Amazigh religious and military leader who led indigenous resistance to the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb. There should be suggestions of a Sword of Eden somewhere in events, but since they don't share Precursor knowledge, Hugh's not interested in letting the memory play out.

Nicky's second session gets them to the time period they want, but his memories have next to nothing to do with the PoE. The same holds true for Joe, when his second session puts him through his POV of that time period. And though Hugh has his minion take them up and down every memory of that time period searching for the smallest hint of anything that might point them in the right direction, there's nothing to find.

Or, rather: Nicky and Joe did meet Ezio once or twice, in waiting rooms or reception areas or the like, but they spent that time talking about art, or the weather, or philosophy - nothing about politics, or Ezio's travels, or PoEs at all.

Otherwise, most of Nicky and Joe's memories of early 16th century Rome involve Joe's rivalry with Michelangelo, who among other things persisted in flirting with Nicky even after he made it clear he wasn't interested. (Joe was, among other things, responsible for getting Michelangelo the commission for David in Florence to get him out of Rome and away from Nicky.)

There's some Vatican politics as well - Nicky's part in organizing the Swiss Guard, Joe's in organizing the Vatican Museums, and the removal of the Borgias from power - and some global politics - the 1503 dispensation for Henry VIII's marriage to Catherine of Aragon, etc. But most of their memories are largely Joe and Nicky being Joe and Nicky in the High Renaissance (and rather hating their jobs, as neither of them particularly like working for Julius II but were blackmailed into it to avoid being labeled as Ottoman spies.)

This goes on for several days until Hugh orders his minion to start looking for the memories of other "ancestors" - essentially, to refine the animus and her technique while he gets his hacker to find better candidates for the animus. And if this accidentally destroys Joe and Nicky's minds in the process? So be it. The plan was always to kill them at the end of their usefulness anyway.

Hugh's minion spends a day doing as asked - there's a few tantalizing glimpses of Joe and Nicky at the court of Kublai Khan in the 1270s - before she has an opportunity to act on the guilty conscious that's come to plague her.

The minion helps them escape - destroying the animus, wiping the records, and blowing the place sky high to cover the bloody swath they have to cut to get out of the secret research bunker. Amongst the casualties is Hugh Merrick, propelling his son Steve into position as youngest CEO in Pharma.

Joe and Nicky rejoin Andy and Booker - who'd been doing their best to cut their own bloody swath through anyone tangentially related to the mercenaries who kidnapped their brothers - and decide to turn their attention to tracking down PoE and destroying animus technology wherever it can be found, believing there are no peaceful uses for either. As a glad you escaped present, Booker tanks Merrick Pharmaceutical's stocks so badly the company never recovers, eventually going bankrupt.

As for the minion? Maybe she's a young Rebecca Crane prior to her recruitment by the Assassins and it’s her experiences with Hugh's animus that get her recruited by the Assassin Order. Maybe she's just a random OC who sets herself up with a new identity halfway around the world and watches gleefully as Merrick Pharmaceuticals and Abstergo Industries both eventually crash and burn.

Bonuses include: 1) Joe and Nicky being the most passive aggressive kidnapees in the history of kidnappings - on the face of things, going along with exactly what Hugh asks of them, but doing their best to focus on innocuous memories and figuring out how to purposefully make memories "skip" between similar episodes without Hugh ever noticing the glitch. Also, playing up the Bleeding Effect so that by day three they're only speaking in Medieval Italian; 2) Hugh being a better class of villain than his son. Immoral? Unethical? Yes, but in a sophisticated businessman way, not a jacket and hoodie, stab a man with a letter opener type way. For some reason I'm imagining him as Jean-Luc Picard, if Picard ever had a Mirror Universe alternate; and 3) Interludes of Andy and Booker searching for Joe and Nicky after they've been kidnapped. This should be part action-thriller along the lines of Taken, part buddy comedy, and involve an arc wherein Andy learns of Booker's deep unhappiness with his immortality and helps him come to terms with the feelings that would have otherwise eventually led to the events of the 2019 movie.

And that is surprisingly more than I thought I would have had. As always, feel free to adopt this bun, just link back if you decide to do anything with it.

20 Questions for Fanfic Writers

@aldisobey tagged me in this TEEHEE I am now a fanfic writer so I can participate in these things!

1) How many works do you have on AO3?

TWO! I refer to myself as a PUBLISHED AUTHOR every chance I get.

2) What’s your AO3 word count?

13k 🙈 I have had to claw my way to each word!! How y'all are casually dropping 2k left and right I DO NOT KNOW, but I guess it comes with time?? I'm not... comfortable yet. So I put in what I basically want to say and start chipping away at the blocks. It is time consuming but maybe I'll be able to have fully formed sentences if I practice enough 🥲

3) What are your top five fics by Kudos?

HA!

Expeditions and Expectations (27)

Brushes with Death (24)

Highly competitive!!

4) What fandoms do you write for?

Dragon Age! I've been doing fan art for years but I hadn't really felt the need to write a story before Veilguard... BG3 almost had me but those would not have been pretty 😂😂😂😂 WE WERE WORKING THROUGH SOME UGLY FEELINGS AT THE TIME.

5) Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Doesn't everyone?? T_T Yes! I think if someone puts the effort in to interacting with your content to such a degree that's beautiful! and how you build community!

Though fighting my inner demons can take time on occasion 🙈

6) What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Out of the two????? Expeditions and Expectations because there's a lot of unresolved things there, I suppose! Was supposed to be just... a look at a beginning.

7) What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Expeditions and Expectations? 😂 They had a nice trip and got to let loose. It was good for 'em!!

8) Do you get hate on fics?

Yes. from ME.

9) Do you write smut?

No, because I am afraid people will think I am bad at sex. Drawing? No problem. Writing? Kill me.

10) Do you write crossovers?

I'm really only interested in characters in their given setting!! I feel no need for crossovers.

11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?

I have under 500 hits. I doubt it.

12) Have you ever had a fic translated?

Better to keep the audience limited to English for now, methinks.

13) Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

No, but I wonder what that's like!! Must be fun! I direct people professionally and really love when it gets extra collaborative!

14) What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Man, I don't think I have one!! Glinda and Elphaba have been my main focus since the movie came out 🩷💚

15) What’s the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

I do not doubt!!! But the one furthest on my list is a fic with Emmrich fighting off romantic feelings for young girlies. IT MIGHT border on the lewd. We'll work up to it 🙈

16) What are your writing strengths?

Dialogue, commitment to characters and narrative planning. I love motifs! I love recurring themes! I don't think anyone notices them, because I'm not good with the word part yet, but they're there!

17) What are your writing weaknesses?

Broski I don't even understand how quotations work properly T_T Outside of technical skills, I also default to a camera view when writing. I naturally write scripts, not prose. Enjoying chipping at this flaw!

18) Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?

I would rather find a narrative way around it. Localization is hard!!

19) First fandom you wrote for?

Eff it. Neopets.

20) Favorite fic you’ve written?

I'm most proud of Brushes with Death, I guess? @bharv said it's a big improvement so that's good!! What started out as "What if I just have the necromancer play therapist to me" opened up to a lot of character study and... it's nice! Not performing the same service for me as when it was first drafted, but still holds that value and has expanded beautifully!

——————

I've been so away from tumblr recently so I've missed a bunch so you may have already done this BUT...! @bharv and @black-rose4 please do this thing if you haven't yet!

You're both so prolific!! Would be interesting to see you stacking up your fics!

Big confession time

After seeing @mrultra100 's post regarding his stance to JT, I decided to come clean with something. Be warned though, this is gonna be a long one.

As he pointed out in his post, JT is pretty much dead, given with the history. Even the fandom seems to be dead.

But here's the thing. I'm incredibly stubborn to believe in that. Mostly because, this show holds a very special heart to me. I remember watching it a lot on Nickelodeon as a kid and being mesmerised by everything. Sure, I also remember watching Spongebob and TLA as well and I do remember them fondly, but somehow, Johnny Test, despite its budget cuts and mixed seasons, has enticed me to such a degree, it influenced me to create art and stuff.

Keep in mind, I'm autistic, so my connection to my hyperfixations are incredibly deep. And while I have other stuff, I enjoy, such as Winx Club, The Penguins of Madagascar, Kamen Rider, etc., Johnny Test is the one, I'm really obsessed with. I couldn't stop smiling, everytime I see the characters, love the dynamic and the character himself, Johnny, has resonated with me to have fun. (He is my Nr. 1 favourite character BTW)

In the beginning, I was very secretive online, since at the time, the hatedom was really huge. Not to mention, my artworks back then were....pretty terrible. But as time went on and opinions changed, I evolved and matured, acknowledging its flaws and making plans on making it better myself.

In short, this show made me into what I am today. There is a reason, why I'm known as the queen of Johnny Test.

Besides, I keep bringing up attention to the series by making lots of fanart, stories, headcanons, cosplay and even a spinoff concept, I really want to make it official, when I get into the animation industry. This is when I do the most unconventional method of doing lots of crossover stuff with JT, mostly with Winx, but also with other shows and media as well. I did MLP, Sonic and the list doesn't stop there.

It may sounds odd, but this, along with talking about the series online and making more fanmade content, are the only methods for me to spread about its existence, while also connecting with my friends. Shoutout to @arti-squid , @rominadrawsart16 , Oreostuffing11, @thetickler85 and @akcartoonist2004 for being the most awesome JT moots ever!

As for my plans for "Johnny Test - Power Up!", I have plans of more content. I have yet to draw Dukey and the remaining two new characters, while also planning to do concept art of the other characters, locations, lore, etc. Basically creating a very detailed show concept to pitch to studios and hopefully, getting the rights of the series for a new chance.

And as for the Prismaverse, it'll also develop further as well. Like I have more plans for more headcanons, stories, friendships and artworks for the cast and even plans on expanding it further by adding more series, I'm interested with.

All of this may sound really farfetched, but this show really defined me to keep evolving, experimenting and believing in myself and my dreams. I found new friends along the way, while also fighting some hardships in my life at the same time.

Just because the series and by extention, the community is dead by a majority of people, that doesn't mean, it's fully dead. There is still a spark, waiting to be blossomed to a inferno. In other words, as long as there are dedicated fans like me and my friends, that spark will last to the end of time.

In short, never give up your obsessions and dreams, even when there is doubt. Keep doing, what makes you happy.

This has been the Cosmic Queen speaking, I hope this post gives you some insight about my opinions about it.

Stay Radiant and Sparkle on, starlets. ✨️

Crossover AU: Adam, Ayano Aishi & Exorcist Angel Chara (2024)

---------------------

[Note: I plan to have this as a future Cover Chapter for a story over at Quotev...and yes some fan fic stories that involve Adam and Eve being one in the same that I read, had inspired the drawing of Adam in that Eve form in this drawing, as well as another drawing I did of Adam in his Eve form, which I will post at a later day...but yeah, don't reblog this drawing without my permission, cause only I can freely use it for both here and for over at Quotev. and the story may be a bit 18+ plus but with some scenes I don't feel like placing too mature heavy 18+ stuff in it, that is my choice...also it is for Mature Audience Readers Only...]

Credit for Hazbin Hotel & Helluva Boss goes to Vivienne "Vivziepop" Medrano

Credit for Yandere Simulator goes to YandereDev

Credit for Undertale & Deltarune goes to Toby Fox

-------------

so yeah, I drew Chara as a type of Mini Exorcist Angel...

and this version if a Nonbinary-Girl so she goes by both She/Her & They/Them Pronouns.

this version of Chara is also a Descendant of Cain, but is also the daughter of The Radio Demon. and Chara is holding a Angelic Knife.

Chara also ends up with little deer ears once she is finally able to go to the Afterlife, and stops Frisk from messing with the timeline anymore than they have already and kept using Chara as a scapegoat.

in the timeline where this version of Chara comes from, she only wanted to use the Souls of really bad and terrible Human Adults, and one of them being the one that caused the death of her father.

so yeah spoilers for that fanfic I'm writing, and Chara ends up being chased by the dogs that belongs to the hunter and she ends up falling into the underground when being chased.

one of the other reasons why Chara would want to go through with the plan, is to avenge her father who she had witness being taken away from her on the night that he died.

the plan for that story, is that she does end up becoming adopted by Adam who will at first not care much about her but then would later form a type of Father-Daughter bond with Chara.

I think if someone has any Chocolate, a Exorcist Angel Chara might become really hungry and feral.

like picture in a middle of a fight between the hotel and the exorcist angels, and someone pulls out a chocolate bar that is like a Queen Bee Brand type Chocolate Bar, and even has the name "Coco-Gluttony Bar"

and Adam could end up being shocked and all panicking and yell out "what are you thinking bringing chocolate into this fight?! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE RELEASING UPON US WITH THAT!"

and then both sides hear maniacal giggling, which at first Charlie and her friends thought it was Niffty, but it turns out not to be her.

but it is the Mini Child size Exorcist Angel that is Chara.

who ends up zooming really fast with her red angel wings to the poor unfortunate sinner who was foolish enough to try to eat chocolate in the middle of the fight. XD

like when it comes to Chocolate....

Adam, Lute and The Other Exorcist Angels could of learned to NEVER get between the smallest Exorcist Angel and her love for the chocolate which she will even go feral for.

if others wanted to draw my version of Chara as a Exorcist Angel that comes from a Crossover AU, they can...but they would still need to give credit.

but I'm not sure if many would be even interested in drawing this Alternate version of Chara, and I'm fine with that.

it's okay that not everyone is interested in drawing Exorcist Angel Chara.

the story where Chara first appears as a Exorcist Angel when she ends up going to Heaven, might only end up being a few chapters.

still going to work on the other stories I'm working on.

and I do plan to have Ayano make appearance in the story and not just a mention...

and Fun-Girl does appear in the story, in a way...

and spoilers will be that Cletus of C.H.E.R.U.B.

ends up making a deal with Fun-Girl, and now she owns his soul and he is NOT allowed to double cross her or tell Collin and Keenie or anyone else about the deal they made...

wont go too deep about the deal those two made, only that it ends up having Cletus having his soul being owned by Fun-Girl of Yandere Simulator...

also I can still like the Yandere Simulator game, and I can try to keep to the Pacifist Route of the game and not hurt the Rivals and just have Ayano befriend them and try to get them to give up on Taro after helping them with their problems.

I can only hope the mess that had to do with YandereDev NEVER happens again, and I'm still going to view that both parties were at fault...

it doesn't help that some don't try to view the bigger picture, that both sides are at fault for what happen.

and yeah if Yandere Simulator does get adopted in the future by another company or those who became a part of the Yandere Simulator Team...and they have to go by a new company name for the game, then I can give them credit for the game as well.

it might be a good idea that Yandere Simulator has a rule that those under the ages of 17 and 18 are not allowed to play the game until they reach the proper age to do so.

it's good that they have that whole censoring in the game where those pink flowers appear instead of blood, that is one of the nice touches to the game and the player can choose to censor it by switching to the pink flowers.

maybe one of the reasons why some parts of Yandere Simulator does take a bit longer to finish, is because the work it takes to putting it together and adding the next rival until the full completion of the game.

the team that is working on Yandere Simulator, are probably trying their very best even after the mess that happen, but hopefully things will work out and the game will be fully completed and maybe it will end up with it's own game card in it's very own game case like Doki Doki Literature Club Plus.

I can only hope it does...I really want to be able to play it on my Nintendo Switch someday once it is fully done and completed.

also please do NOT misinterpret my feelings and thoughts about both YandereDev and That Other Person...being both in the wrong, I'm just seeing it by a different view point that views that both sides are at fault for what happen and it isn't just one person that became a victim...

anyway if there does come a day when someone who is currently part of the team that helps make Yandere Simulator, decides to give the company and team a new name that has to do with the game, but YandereDev still being a part of it but like the credits for the game will not just have YandereDev but also it's new game company name...

then we will have to accept the possibility of that happening.

and hopefully I wont have to bring up that mess that happen too much and I can only hope the game does get fully completed and everything works out and maybe someday Yandere Simulator will end up in its own game card inside it's own game case and be playable for the Nintendo Switch...

don't know when or if it will happen, but I can only hope it does.

anyway besides that, I would like to talk about some fan theories that has to do with Yandere Simulator that has to do with Info-Chan, that could make for a interesting plot twists.

but maybe I will save that for a later day...

I hope some like this drawing that has Chara as a Exorcist Angel, and also Adam in Female form as well as the drawing of Ayano Aishi in this as well.

the fan fics I read where Adam is Eve and they are one in the same, I can't help but fall in love with that concept...

well there is that theory I have that if Adam and Lilith were once one in the same and they were once called Adalith before they were split into Male and Female forms and end up being called Adam and Lilith, taking parts of their original names from Adalith their original self.

I can talk more about that whole Adalith theory another time as well, just not right now and I'm going to put that talk on a bit of a hiatus for now...

FAQ

What is Malevolent Monthly?

Malevolent Monthly is a recurring event based on the “draw this in your style” (DTIYS) events that are common in the visual art community. DTIYS events are typically hosted by a single artist who asks other artists to draw a particular piece of theirs in their own style. Many artworks are then created with the same subject matter in different art styles. The motivation behind this event is to encourage writers to write something that may have a similar plot as somebody else’s but that differs in style, execution, and other things that make writers unique. In other words, “write this in your style”!

How does this event work?

Prompts will be released on the 1st of each month, starting January 1st, 2024. Writers will then have the entire month to write a fic based on the prompt. Fics responding to the prompts can be posted anytime. Participants can also send asks or submissions with snippets from their fic, and we will preview them on our Tumblr.

How do I participate?

To participate, all you need to do is write a fic based on the prompt given at the beginning of the month and post it. Fics must be based on the prompt given to be considered part of this event.

Do I have to participate each month?

Nope! You can participate once, or you can participate every month, or anywhere in between. 

How do prompts work? 

Prompts will be posted on the first day of the month on Tumblr, Pillowfort, and AO3. Prompts will be general enough to give you flexibility when writing but specific enough that all fics will have similar plots/subject matter. (Eg. ‘John and Arthur go to see a movie together, but it’s rudely interrupted.’) 

I don’t think I’m going to finish my fic on time; can I post it after the month is over?

Absolutely! We won’t be sharing prompts fulfilled after the end of the month on our Tumblr/Pillowfort, but the AO3 collection will remain open to submissions for past prompts, and we encourage you to finish your fic even if it’ll be a bit late.

Can I write for a past prompt?

Yes! Though we won’t be sharing works written for past prompts on our Tumblr/Pillowfort, the AO3 collection will remain open to submissions for past prompts, so you can write for any past prompt that interests you and add it to the collection.

Can I submit a prompt?

Yes, you can submit a prompt! Anybody can submit prompts, regardless of whether or not you plan on participating in the event as a writer. Prompts can be submitted via our Tumblr or Pillowfort askbox.

Is there a word count minimum or maximum?

There is no word count minimum or maximum. You can write monthly 100-word drabbles or monthly 100,000-word epic novels—whatever inspires you!

Can I participate if I’m a minor (under 18)?

Sure! There is no age restriction for this event.

Can I participate if I’m not a writer?

If you feel inspired by the monthly prompt, you can absolutely create art (or other non-written creations) for it! However, as this is officially a write-this-in-your-style event, we will only be sharing written content on our blogs/in our AO3 collection.

What social media do I need to participate?

We will be posting prompts on Tumblr, AO3, and Pillowfort, so you will need some way to access or view the prompt on one of those three sites to participate. However, you can post your work wherever is most convenient for you, and you will be able to view the AO3 collection without an account, so there is no official social media requirement.

Can I co-write with someone else?

Sure!

What kind of fics can I write?

Any fic centered around the canon characters and/or world of Malevolent is permitted, including AUs, crossovers (where Malevolent characters are central to the story), and NSFW content. Writers must clearly label sensitive content (including, at minimum, AO3’s four major archive warnings) when posting. Any content is allowed as long as it is properly tagged. The exception is any content that is discriminatory or categorized as hate speech, which will not be shared by the mod team on social media or accepted into the AO3 collection.

Where do we post our works?

We will be reblogging works on Tumblr and Pillowfort, and we will also have an AO3 collection that you can post your work to. However, you can post your works on whichever site is most convenient for you.

When posting on Tumblr or Pillowfort, use the tag #malevolent monthly and tag our blog @malevolent-monthly in the body of the post so that we can see it!

How do I add my fic to the AO3 collection?

Follow the Google Doc guide here to add your fic to the Malevolent Monthly collection. Note that the collection is in the prompt meme style, so there are a few extra steps involved that differ from posting to a typical collection. The guide has pictures and step-by-step instructions that should help you post your fic successfully. However, if you have any difficulties, please send us a message.

I plan to include an image in my post/in my fic. Do I need an image ID for it?

Image IDs are highly encouraged, but not strictly required, for this event. Please consider adding IDs when applicable to increase the accessibility of your post or your fic. For a guide on how to write image IDs, please see this document.

Who are the moderators for this event?

The moderators are:

Jay (@bluejayblueskies)

Jack (@organchordsandlightning)

Rowan (@splitting-infinities)

I have another question not answered here.

Please send us an ask!
