#That was given to her by Barnaby

[satanisaware]

Introducing...

Home Runners AU!

See part 2!

The following pictures capture the meaning of how things would start terribly and unprofessional at first but still did not give up and tried their best to get to the goal they were seeking.

Just...like how Mia used to throw her bat at Barnaby's face.

And Howdy knocking Wally out while pitching with his four arms.

And How Eddie used to scare Y/N off by just posing and letting them imagine the consequences...

And that made Julie distressed as well, thinking that she made a lot of failures rather than making a great team...

With Mia's suggestion, The team was fully ready to start again, with the Joyful siblings joining in and filling all the necessary positions on the field.

And this is the baseball field with the players sorted out on their positions.

This is a humble and wholesome AU I've been working on for a while now, I hope I covered up the most important things, Questions are allowed if you want to ask me about anything regarding it, thank you for your patience and your interest ♡

If you wanna learn more about it, you can check my Instagram .

Have a great day!

Note!

This AU was originally created by @ajayjay-licious, and willingly given to me to be the new owner, thank you for your trust, Ajay!

Tommy Shelby x Shelby!Reader Warnings: Incestuous, blowjob, period typical sexism

1913

"What will you be wearing, Ada?” asked the younger Shelby twin as she stood in her lace chemise and bloomers, scanning through her wooden almirah for the right dress. 

“I’m not quite sure yet. Maybe I’ll just stick with the yellow voire.” Ada replied as she held up the dress in front of the floor length mirror. “What do you think, Y/N? Does it scream ‘sultry and sophisticated’ or is it more so ‘fuck me like a whore’.” 

“Well, you can wear your knitted cape over it, to ward off unwanted suitors, then remove it when you find someone you want to fuck.” The sisters laughed as they continued prepping for the upcoming party; it wasn’t a party per se, just a little get together with people from school. 

“Is this okay?” asked Y/N as she settled on wearing a scarlet organdie dress that Tommy had bought her for her birthday. “It’s perfect Y/N. I reckon Matthew Barnaby won’t be able to take his eyes off of you in that dress, really brings out your complexion, it does.” 

“Matthew can bugger off to Timbuktu, for all I care. That boy’s getting on my nerves.” she expressed, clearly exasperated with the situation regarding the boy who had been hopelessly pining after her for months. It wasn’t that the Barnaby boy was unattractive, it was more so the opposite, with his caramel eyes and boyish grin, he was quite popular amongst the female population of Small Heath. 

And that also included her best friend, Dorothy Smith, and Y/N wouldn’t dare upset her friend by fraternising with him, by virtue of female friendships and their unspoken rules. 

“Matthew who?” came the sudden voice from the wooden doorway, startling the pair. 

“Jesus, Tommy, don’t you ever knock?” Ada reprimanded, evidently annoyed by her elder brother’s disregard for privacy, as the younger of the two quickly threw a robe over herself.  

“What’s this talk of boys and going out, eh?” Tommy asked as he stood leaning against the door frame, with his hands in his trouser pockets, sending his sisters a questioning glare. 

“It’s none of your bloody business, is what it is.” Ada retorted as she walked out of the room, wanting nothing but to escape her brother’s questioning, leaving her younger twin to fend for herself. 

“It’s just a small get together, Tommy, with people from school.” Y/N answered sweetly. She’d always been the kinder of the two, “We’ll be back before you know it.” 

“Where’s this gonna be held?” 

Y/N wasn’t sure she should answer this. She knew her brother would’ve given her hell if he’d known of the location. 

“Y/N darling, I asked you a question." his voice resounded in her ears as he held her chin up to meet his icy gaze.  

“By the Cut.” came the meek reply. “Now Tommy before you say anything, please just consider the fact that you never let Ada and I go anywhere. Be it Boris’ birthday last week or Janey’s the month before, or any party, in fact. So please, let us go just this once.” she pleaded with her eyes watering and her lips in a beautiful pout.  

“Y/N, you know I’m just trying to keep the both of you safe.” he whispered as he looked into her clear eyes. “Who knows what’s to happen when the men see how devastatingly beautiful you are, eh?”  

“But Tommy, the rest of you go out whenever you want and do whatever you please. It's not fair for Ada and I.” she argued, not willing to let go of her grievance. 

“It’s because Arthur, John and I know how to hold a gun.”  

“Well, Ada chases rats with a revolver, does she not.” came her quick retort, eliciting a chuckle from her brother. 

“Rats. Ada chases rats. That’s very different from firing it at a man.” Tommy reasoned with her. 

“What if I do something for you?” she asked him, almost purring into his ears. 

“Like what, my sweet girl?” 

“Like this.” She traced her fingers along his crotch through the fabric of his trousers, looking at him so very innocently. “And this.” she whispered as she undid his leather belt, and pulled his trousers down, hearing the metallic clang as it hit the ground. 

“You’re sailing perilously close to the wind, my dear.” He breathed raspily, as he looked down at her kneeling figure. He, however, gave no indication of stopping her as she pulled out his cock and stroked it gently, staring into his eyes, as she did so. 

His cock was growing in her hand, giving away his arousal, as it hardened and throbbed with her touch. Y/N would never tire of seeing Tommy’s red cock, it was a beast each time she laid her eyes on his sinful member, and she knew just how to knead it and suck it, to make him succumb to her wishes. 

‘Men think with their cocks’ her Aunt Polly had told her once and young Y/N Shelby had etched that saying into her mind, who would’ve known that she’d ever use it against her own brother.  

Her actions were sinfully graceful as she stroked his length with her soft hands. She glanced at him naughtily and placed a sweet kiss to his reddish tip and dragged her tongue through the length of his cock, she continued all the way to his balls, cupping them and placing sloppy kisses, prompting soft groans from his mouth. 

She spit on his cock, lubricating him as she continued pumping him. The door to the bedroom was wide open and the pair didn’t make an effort to obstruct prying eyes from peering into their lascivious act. 

Ada had made a show of closing the door to the house rather resoundingly, hence, she wasn’t to be worried about. Finn would be at school, while Arthur and John were God knows where with God knows who and Polly wouldn’t be back until teatime.   

Tommy knew the little girl was only sucking him off so that he’d grant her wish of going out with her friends, but God, did she look good doing it. His fingers tightened around her brown curls as he beckoned her to take his cock in her mouth, and she gladly obliged. Her plump red lips parted and wrapped around his thick, dark cock, earning a satisfactory hum from the man above. She sucked him as best as she could, taking him in with great difficulty, his girth simply too wide for her narrow mouth. Her eyes started watering as he bucked his hips into her mouth, his fingers gripped her soft hair as he set his pace. Y/N made a conscious effort to hold back a gag as Tommy continued his hasty thrusts, clearly lost in the pleasure of his sister's warm and soft mouth. 

His sister, his darling sister! God, did she look like a vision. 

Kneeling in front of him, with his dick in her mouth, dewy eyed and ruddy cheeked. She was perfect; utterly and devastatingly perfect. 

His thrusts got faster as his balls slapped against her chin, she was such a good girl, suppressing her gags as he choked her with his relentless assault of her throat. 

He was close, he could feel it. Just a little more. 

“You’re doing so good for me, my sweet girl.” he moaned through stifled groans. “Fuck, I’m gonna cum.”  

With a final thrust, he spilled his seed inside her mouth as it dripped down into her cleavage, spoiling her chemise which she so adored. 

“Tommy, look what you’ve done, now I’ve got to wash it again.” she grumbled through muffled sounds and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand.  

Y/N didn’t wait for her brother to gain his composure and sauntered into the lavatory; she didn’t have the time to boil water for a proper bath, hence, she soaked a towel and resigned to rubbing her body clean. It was in times like these that she quite envied Dorothy, for her father was the District Magistrate and they could afford plumbing facilities in their mansion, which meant that they’d have hot water at will, unlike the Shelby’s who weren’t the most well off financially. 

She wrapped a spare towel over her body as she made her way to the twin’s shared bedroom to find Tommy leaning against the window with a cigarette between his lips.  

“Close the curtains, will you?” she asked him as she dropped the towel to the floor and rummaged through her drawers for her inner garments. Tommy did as asked as he took another puff of the cigarette, his eyes raking over her nude body as he watched her shimmy into a blue chemise with matching bloomers. Her movements were unhurried as she sat on the bed and pulled up the stockings. 

Tommy had always enjoyed watching her dress, the way the material of the stockings would dig slightly into her plump thighs, or how divine her legs looked in the garters and she’d always let him tie the corset lace. He'd done it enough times to know just the tightness that she preferred.  

“I’m planning on wearing this.” she announced as she held up the scarlet dress, knowing fully well that he wasn’t going to deny her a night out now. 

“Just be back before dinner and make sure your sister doesn’t make a drunken fool out of herself.” he replied as he placed a soft kiss on her shoulder. 

“Will you also be going out?” she asked absentmindedly as she tried on the dress, twirling contentedly in front of the mirror. 

“I might.” The girl quirked an eyebrow at this, “To meet Greta Jurossi, I presume.” 

Tommy hadn’t known that his sister would be privy to his and Greta’s discretions. “And whatever gave you that idea, my sweet girl?” 

“Kitty’s been spewing tales of you and her sister. The whole of Birmingham must’ve heard of it by now, heaven knows that girl can’t keep her mouth shut to save her life.” she answered nonchalantly and opened the window, spotting her sister playing hopscotch with the younger girls. “Ada!” she yelled at her twin, motioning her to come up to the house.  

Tommy took that as his cue to exit and he made his way to the door, “And Tommy, thank you so much.” she whispered as she wrapped her arms around his torso.  

He placed a kiss on her forehead and left without a word. 

“Well, did he actually agree?” squealed Ada as she darted into the room, “Of course he did.” Y/N assured her. 

“Well, fuck me, how on earth did you persuade him?” she asked as she hurriedly combed her hair, not wanting to be late for the event. 

“It didn’t take much honestly, and I’ve got a sweet mouth, you know.” Ada nodded, obviously not understanding the innuendo behind her sister’s words.  

And she never would, for that was to remain a secret between Tommy and Y/N.

Toys in the Catalog

I had mentioned Eddie looking at his number and being "stretched thin" so I thought I'd put together all of the catalog images and see if the numbers mean anything to me.

Starting here. Poppy looks dead eyed in this image, while the others have very happy faces. You can't say it is the toy, necessarily, since the others look happy. She seems to have a paper tail and paper feathers on her head. Her feet are super cute.

If you haven't seen one of these, this is how it works. More of a science toy than anything. This one is a bit scarier looking.

Poppy is the same price as Eddie, while the others are a bit higher. I can envision how these toys work by the design. Super cool designs.

We've looked at this a couple of times. Eddie appears to be checking out his price. Wally and Frank pillows are quite a bit more expensive than the other toys. Is this framing them as the most popular? They are more than an entire jack-in-the-box. Barnaby I have mentioned before, because it is another bisected Barn. I think we will see him in pieces before this is over.

This is framed as gifts for your home, like Wally was looking at for Home. The cuckoo clock here is home, and is featured prominently in Eddie's breakdown in Commercials. As we watch Eddie unravel, we see an above view of the clock (and I haven't found anything else in that image, not for a lack of trying) as well as a straight on view, which shows the clock moving, but not smoothly or in time. It starts and stops, pauses longer than you think it should. This says that Wally pops out instead of a cuckoo, though Poppy might have been more traditional. We don't get to see Wally come out of the clock.

The clock reads 3:30. I don't see anything that would designate day or night. This is quite a bit more than most things, because it's a complex clock.

Then we have a tea set, which seems to be the big image it is giving us about Poppy. Doilies and tea. Over and over. We will have to remember. Wally does tap his tea cup at Poppy's in a hidden video. Still trying to figure it out, but they keep showing it to us.

Finally, a tree skirt. It's expensive, but those things always are. I love the design, and all the neighbors. We see this design in a video or still somewhere else, maybe? I will keep an eye out. This features all the neighbors as gingerbread men as well as has cut outs of their symbols. I think it is odd that Home is by Eddie and not Wally, but maybe they are mixing it up.

Final page, with records. On the holiday records: one for $5.89 or all for $15.89. There are five records below on this page and it says "continued on next page," so that is not all. All of the records that we have seen so far are here. A was in the exhibit, as well as the first ad with the missing item. We saw B in the exhibit, and it was on the record player on the Merchandise page; it plays the Alice in Wonderland bit. C is Halloween, D was some of the earliest merch, and E is mentioned, but we are told that we have part of the audio, not the full record. Generally, when it says that, we shouldn't trust it. Something to consider.

Presumably, there are more records. The records are Marlo.

The price on these seem pretty standard and in line with the rest of the catalog. The single and Painting with Wally are cheaper, we assume because it is a shorter album. On the pricing generally, we are seeing a lot of ".89" but I assume this is for the same reason things are priced at the upper end, to be smaller than a dollar increase while practically being at the next dollar amount. Eddie and Poppy's toys are the only ones at $1.89. Given that they are both bullied characters, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some kind of connection there.

One thing I didn't mention, is that Marlo is listed on this page, but it isn't elsewhere. I think I mentioned during a post on "Commercials" that there is a different company for those toys. Pretty sure Marlo did these records and the phones, at least. The other company is named "The You-Won't-Believe-It Company." They did the Wally Ball And Cup. They have other items in the video, I think. I noticed and wondered if there was something going on there, because we have only seen Marlo so far.

Introducing Beatrice, Flynn, and Nelly Frankly-Dear, Frank and Eddie's kids who were dropped off by the stork one day! Descriptions under the cut-

Beatrice

The oldest of the triplets and don't you forget it!

Perky, kind-hearted, and ladylike but also bossy and quick-tempered.

Needs everything to be just so and if it isn't, she will make that your problem.

Absolutely hates getting dirty but will rush in fists first if she thinks you're a threat to her family. She's whacked Barnaby with her favorite picnic basket many a time for chasing her poppa around!

Close with both her parents but her bossy nature often gets on Frank's nerves ("Beatrice, it is not your job to tell me these things!") and Eddie doesn't appreciate her tendency to hit people who give him a hard time.

Flynn

The middle child, doesn't really mind it.

Well-meaning and earnest but forgetful and easily distracted. Needs a firm sense of structure in his daily life or else he gets anxiety.

Follows Eddie into work most days and helps out however he can, usually in the form of keeping pop company on deliveries and making arts & crafts for the post office.

Has a bad habit of wandering off where he's not supposed to, sometimes for hours at a time. His disappearances have given Frank many a scare, though he always finds his way back eventually.

Thinks the absolute world of his poppa and wants to be just like him! Gets anxious whenever Eddie's not around. He loves Frank as well but doesn't always know if his dad likes him or not.

Nelly

The baby of the bunch.

Excructiatingly shy and anxious, often needs someone else to talk for them, and tends to just go along with whatever their siblings wanna do.

Shares their dad's obsession with bugs, has a bad habit of trying to befriend them even when they're poisonous. Eddie has suffered many stings because of this.

Spends most of their time around Frank and is closer to them overall but enjoys spending time with Eddie whenever they get a chance.

Has a big crush on Howdy.

All three of them are loved dearly by their parents and enjoy a close sibling bond! Sure hope nothing bad ever happens to this family...

[pastelalleycat]

Julie's coping mechanism when she's scared is to cover her eyes (she's afraid of the dark), while Frank suggests to build Poppy up to the scariness of Sally's play.

That's when Barnaby drops the title of the storybook. "Brick-by-Brick."

I'm thinking of the implications of that. Because yeah, Poppy was essentially cask-of-Amontilladoed, but did Barnaby literally mean "let's brick Poppy's windows up"? That's seems like it'd be going a little too far for him. And notably, Barnaby isn't even present- or doesn't speak- when the bricking takes place. Was it Sally's idea to take his phrasing literally? Did Barnaby drop the book's title just because somebody had to be the one to do it?

A better moral to the storybook than what was given would be taking Frank's approach to fear- exposure therapy. Gradually pushing Poppy just a little out of her comfort zone by showing her different elements of the play until she was able to watch it without being afraid. Hiding away from your fears only serves to make them bigger than they really are. That's why some people find comfort in horror: they can face their fears in a contained environment and even control them to some degree.

Staying at home all the time only serves to make Poppy more paranoid of going outdoors. She's never been shown leaving her barn. After the bricking, even her barn is starting to feel unsafe.

Hunt Vs. Hunted AU

(a.k.a Vampire Wally AU)

Meet the cast Part 1 || 2 || 3

Barnaby and Eddie

Home and Doll

Ok so Home may be out of place from the rest and they may look like a picasso rubiks cube object head, but it's for a reason, trust me

Info below

Barnaby ★ Warewolf

Old friend of Wally and Poppy, he was the one who looked out for Wally at his weakest. He was a whole lot different than how he is now, a lot gentler and a lot happier.

In the present, he works under the H.A. as an experimentative soldier out on the hunt for monsters.

Eddie Dear

He's just some soldier. Nothing much known of his past. He joined H.A. for the sole purpose of filling the gaps in his memory. Outside of that, Eddie is fairly competent in what he does, which is mainly patrolling and assisting hunters.

He later on accompanies Howdy as his partner on hunts, gradually becoming the Caterpillar's friend and close companion as time goes on.

HOME ★ ???

Home is a peculiar character, once heavily involved in Wally's past. They are the founder and current head honcho of H.A. with the company's original intention being to look for Wally until it evolved into managing corrupt mythical creatures altogether.

They don't show themselves in public or to just anybody in general, rather passing on the responsibility of relaying orders via Doll.

Doll

Doll is HOME's most loyal servant, being the only who is allowed to be in their presence personally. Want to say something to HOME? Talk to Doll. HOME has an order for you? Doll is there to deliver the message. It got to the point that Doll's face and persona is quite well known in the company, just above Howdy.

She is diligent and quite serious about what she does. She is cheerful in nature but it can often come off as intimidating to others given her affiliations. She doesn't know about it though.

[chokingonunluckyclovers]

so becuase i like funny men... i made a character that i can ship with barnaby. not lying, odetari's song "too fast" kept replaying in my mind with this character. I unintentionally based her on blaze the cat and rouge the bat.

in welcome home, Puraline took shelter at the neighborhood, as he ran away from home. strangly though, poppy's pies would go missing. hey, a kittys got to do what a kittys got to do to survive. even thought poppy would have gladly given her a pie. she manage to get close to barnaby cuase she found his jokes funny.

in my hyperpop punk au, she has a very heavy catwomen influence. lives a bit of a double life, burgluring at night, and flauting her riches at day (while also giving money to the poor). she laughed at a dark joke barnaby made and barnaby was locked on her ever since.

in my scene au, she's a bit of a hacker. prolly hacked wally's pc then got hacked back (wally wasn't even on the computer, it was just home maining the system). so she moved in to find which computer did it. its a bit of a lone wolf, and has a bad tendency of swiping stuff. (howdy has banned her.) she was bummed, cuase she feels down with being hacked and banned. barnaby saw her and thought a joke would cheer her up. puraline proceeded to laugh her gut out.

[welcomehomeincorrectquotes]

Question for fellow Welcome Home and My Little Pony fans: What Element of Harmony do you think each neighbour would have?

We are still learning how the characters tick but so far the canidates I'm most certain about are:

Wally as the Element of Magic, since he's "the Heart" of the neighbourhood, he is everyone's friend, the protagonist of the show and his role seems to be learning lessons (like Twilight Sparkle!)

Frank as the Element of Honesty, as his schtick is literally that he's "frank!"

Eddie as the Element of Generosity, the poor guy is always selflessly giving his time and energy to everyone without asking for anything in return.

Less certain, but more interesting to discuss, are:

Barnaby as the Element of Loyalty, despite being a jokester whose purpose is to make people laugh, what really stands out to me about Barnaby is his devotion to Wally. Barnaby is given quite a bit of flack for his somewhat callous moments with the other neighbours, but this is contrasted with his behaviour with "his little Apple." He has been shown to be patient with Wally's various quirks, sticking up for him against (percieved) slights, noticing "off" behaviour when no one else did, and Clown's confirmation that "no matter the universe they are always best friends." Plus, dogs are well known for their loyalty :-P

Julie as the Element of Laughter! HA! See, Barnaby, I told you I was funny! I would be very disappointed if the character with JOY in her name was any other Element!

What do you think? Do you disagree?

[jellyarchived]

Hi! May I request the neighbors having a sleepover with y/n who’s scared of thunderstorms and they comfort y/n?

This turned out longer than expected, do forgive for the long reading you have to do!

Thunderstorm, Thunderstorm, go away! | Neighbor who's afraid of thunder

Warnings: //

ʚ — It was a nice day in the neighborhood, spring was around the corner, the sun was shining and nothing was disturbing anybody! So, the best thing to do today was to hang out with your lovely neighbors for today and even have a picnic!

ʚ — It wasnt until you struck up the idea on having a sleepover with them all! Seeing that the day was doing perfectly fine so far, a sleepover was the cherry on top!

ʚ — Now, you must have a really big house to fit all of them in, considering on how tall Poppy and Barnaby are. But hey! You made it work! It wouldn't be very neighborly of you to exclude either of them since they would take up most of the space.

ʚ — The evening went by quick, having played board games with them, acting out a random script Sally came up with, painting with Wally (thats if you know how to paint!), cracking silly jokes with none other than Barnaby and even baking something sweet and delicious with Poppy!

ʚ — Now that it was finally time to get some sweet sleep with your neighbors (which, ended up being silly stories told instead of actually getting rest), it didn't really got noticed by you, or anybody, that the weather was getting rather worse each hour.

ʚ — What started with light slowly turned into heavy rain, thunder emerging from the dark clouds that coverved the dark blue sky, it made you feel more anxious and uneasy rather than comforted by the weather.

ʚ — That, of course, didn't go unnoticed from your fellow neighbors, hearing it right outside in the comforts of your house.

ʚ — Poppy Partridge was the first person to ask if you're alright and commenting something about the bad weather, putting her wing gently on your shoulder with a face of care. Of course, even she was being a bit jumpy herself, but you were the first priority to see if you're doing fine.

ʚ — Julie Joyful joined in next, sitting next to you while seeming concerned for you, too. Soon enough, the other neighbors were coming over to help you out with the awful feeling of fear the weather has given you.

ʚ — Barnaby was making silly jokes, making sure it made you feel better rather than worse (even Howdy who remembered a few jokes), Poppy tried to ease you with simple words of comfort, Eddie...he did forget at first that you had a fear of thunderstorms, who also was trying to comfort you in the same way Poppy has.

ʚ — Frank might not have been the best in comforting people, only telling you that "the weather will soon go away", or "that it'll calm down in a few hours or so". Sally tried, she really did! But not being entirely sure on how to handle the situation was making it rather hard than simple.

ʚ — Julie on the other hand was telling you stories to keep your mind away from the thunder, having a lot of them in store! Even if it happened days ago, or even months!

ʚ — Wally was taking it on a more calmer approach, listening to his neighbors trying their best to comfort you while staring at you. He would try to say something to ease you, comforting you in the best way he could and even hearing you out if you had something to say.

ʚ — Eventually, you all had to go to sleep, nobody wants to walk around feeling cranky all day with the lack of sleep! But, also seeing that the weather wasn't going to get better any time soon, Julie decided it was the best to sleep close to each other! Just in case the weather (somehow) gets worse and with you getting more uneasy.

ʚ — Now with your neighbors sleeping close to you (and Wally's repetitive of "I'm sleeping, I'm sleeping"), you felt better! They tried their best, which was enough for you. Somehow (managing) to ignore the thunderstorm outside, you went to sleep, enjoying the peace and not so quiet sleepover with your neighbors.

ʚ — The day didn't go upside down, even with the horrendous weather that happened. The sleepover was truly the cherry on top!

He's dragging me to an amusement park. I don't know where.

Just listen to me and don't come dammit!

Forget about me, you can make new friends I'm sure. If I live then we can laugh about it.

Hey B

I can't ask for help or tell you where I am, but I'm fine for now.

How are you holding up?

Well I was in the pent house and now I’m in downtown New York and somewhere and that wasn’t a conscious decision and also every bird in New York is looking for you.

Billie Bust Up Bandaid Headcanons

It came to me in the middle of writing fanfics.

Billie

Billie keeps those big tan bandaids that are usually in a square shape. Being so adventurous and rough makes them get bruises and cut a lot, usually more than just a simple prick. Therefore she’d carry around those heavy duty bandaids, even if it’s a relatively small cut, just because she thinks it makes her look much cooler.

Aristotle

Aristotle for sure has the bandaids you’d get at a doctors office. They might have patterns on them, or small characters, or just some sort of overall appeal design that makes them pop! They have normal ones as well, of course, but Aristotle personally prefers these cuter ones. Sometimes they may accidentally cut themself while prepping food so he likes to distract himself from the blood by looking at the characters or design instead. Besides, who doesn’t love cute patterns on bandaids? Absolutely loves to help patch others up with them if they can.

Barnaby

Barnaby barely has bandages, he has all out gauze. Being dead and all she can’t actually bleed or be bruised, since that requires a physical form, but she’s seen Barnaboos who suffered from injury upon death and helps them with that! For example, she might wrap up a beheaded ghosts neck in gauze either as a symbol of their death or an accessory, or maybe they’ll simply just play around with it because it’s fun! It’s also very wrappable! What isn’t there to love!

Fantoccio

Fantoccio has basic ass bandaids. He will use them on himself, but moreso for enjoyment I presume? Unlike Barnaby, he can bleed, but given that it’s sap it’s very likely a bandaid wouldn’t hold it and it’s better to use something else instead. The bandaids were just left behind the theatre, so he will sometimes use them to fix props or just to add something to a characters costume to show they are a fighter. He has some just in case one of his many numerous hundreds of thousands of guests get injuries as well!

Dutch

Dutch also has regular bandaids, but he additionally has those super special and specific ones that you need instructions to put on. Like the knuckle bandaids, the heel bandaids, the finger ones, all of them. He just likes to show off how rich he is by doing that because honestly nobody uses those stupid specialized bandaids because they are too hard to figure out. >:(

Elaine

Elaine has a mixture of large bandaids like Billie and cute ones like Aristotle. Large ones for herself, but most of her crew likes cute things so she lets them use those bandaids. From time to time, she may also indulge herself in a little butterfly sticker on her wrist! Bring it up and you’ll lose your own though.

Bonus: Scrimshaw

This guy raw dogs it, absolutely nothing. Not even disinfectant. If the world wants him to die of infection, then it can try!

[the-nosy-neighbor]

An exploration of Poppy

I'm going to do a few posts about Poppy, specifically her characteristics and her experience during the latest update.

Poppy has been quietly hanging in the background until this update.  I am glad we got to see more of her this time, even though it wasn’t great for her.

Poppy is somewhat of an unknown. 

What we do know:

Poppy is a big, beautiful bird, which she describes as a cross between a flamingo on her father’s side and a hen on her mother’s.  She is unclear on this point.

Her family lives in the woods, where she was born in what was originally described as a tree, and now is called a nest of poppies.  She outgrew her tree, a la Clifford (I feel like I have written about that before, so sorry if I’m repeating myself. I remember writing that Clifford was supposed to have grown that big because of the amount of love, though that may have been related to Barnaby)

We have discussed the role of poppies before in the discussion of The Wizard of Oz.  They also have other literary representations of poppies, including the poppies included in The Iliad.   A people referred to as the “Lotus Eaters.” They lived on an island filled with plants called the lotos, and after they ate them, would forget their homes and loved ones and existed there in a stupor.  Common understanding of the plant leads people to equate them with poppies/opium. 

Poppies are the source of opium.   Many of our pain-killing medications such as morphine, codeine, heroin, and oxycodone are derivatives of the poppy.  At least some of them were thought to be less addictive when they were developed.  The history of the drug includes addiction and being asleep/unconscious/nodding.  In Wizard of Oz, it is used as the reason that Dorothy and the gang fall asleep on the way to Oz.

The kerchief isn’t here at this point, but it does remind me of that old horror story about the girl with the choker.   https://www.buzzfeed.com/lyapalater/for-everyone-thats-still-fucked-up-over-that-stor Those of you who may have read 80’s horror anthologies will know, this stuff doesn’t go away.  That damage is forever. 

Poppy is canonically trans. I have also seen that she is canonically lesbian. It seems like that is included in the pride image as an apron?

Poppy’s original design was more off-putting, but that form is also more reminiscent of a poppy.  She appears to have a bend in her neck, which has always seemed broken to me.  Given that they are portrayed as hanging in a piece of early concept art, this is a possibility.  She also has sleepy eyelids.

·         Over time, Poppy’s neck has straightened, her eyelids have lightened, and she has rainbow feather accents.  The current design is definitely less scary.  She wears a shawl. ·         She seems to have been through more changes than other characters, with an earlier version being mostly teal.  Teal remains her signature color.  I wonder if she dyes her feathers like Barnaby dyes his fur. 

This Wally test image shows her as teal/blue

In the realism of creating the show, Welcome Home, Poppy is built like big bird and has very limited use of her hands.  Generally, when muppets need to use their hands, like Swedish Chef, they have actual person hands. 

Due to her inability to manipulate, she is written to have other characters help her do things like use the oven, though it is treated as something she needs to have done as a phobia situation. 

To be continued with a more thorough exploration of some other aspects of her character...

Hello! Sorry if this has already been asked, but for the Deity AU: What's the storyline? Like when do certain things (that you are comfortable with sharing) transpire? I'm kinda new, so I'm just trying to find out what I can to catch up to everyone else who has been here. But besides that, I hope you have a wonderfully lovely day/night! :] (Also, I love your art and au's, there so fun!)

Hi hi!

I do have a story with an ending tho and its mainly dealing with Wally and my oc Aiden.

Ill put it here since like I said I dont really plan to write it fully. Also their playlist which is where the story goes chronologically! :oD

This is gonna be me REALLY COMPACTING IT AS MUCH AS I CAN

So like… spoilers ig????

Aiden is the son of a chief/king? He wants to grow up and be as revered as his father. His friend of childhood is from a rival place and his name is Dante.

Aiden is trans and his dad doesnt really have faith but thanks to his mom and Frank (who he meets as a kid) he gets trained up and finally accepted in to the army.

Aiden and Dante find out their homes are at war and are like “nooo dont fight haha” and their parents are like “yea? Political marriage” and theyre like “shit”

So they become engaged, Dante has a small crush on Aiden so hes not that mad, Aiden doesnt want it. Their parents still plan to fight but in a backstab way.

Dad needs a right hand man, doesnt choose Aiden, chooses his rival but soon to be best friend (I dont have a name yet for them).

They go to war, Aidens dad tells him “lol go kill Dante while I kill the dad” Aiden gets told by deity same thing. To kill Dante or blood will be shed from his home. Aiden is about to, cant go through with it. Dante doesnt know.

They still win the battle, marriage is obviously called off. Aidens dad gets help from a witch to head home while Aiden meets Barnaby and gets help handling the witch (her name is Willow).

Dad and Frank get into an argument lmao. Frank is like “I pseudo raised your kid” and dad is like “nuh uh” dad does NOT know hes arguing with a deity. Aiden adult at this point.

Aiden meets Wally. Wally meets his parents and they bond a bit before he leaves after I think a week? Month? Dont remember. Aiden is big sad, bro misses him even tho he almost killed him.

Mom proud of the warrior Aiden became.

Another battle at war. Aiden is finally given the chance to lead a team. Blinds Dantes brother who is a tyrant. Frank and Aiden argue about leaving the guy alive.

Aiden meets Cloud god (lmao)

Dantes dad kills Aidens dad. Best friend saves the remaining crew by getting them tf out of there. They also found out Dantes brother was also killed but Aiden doesnt know if that was his fault.

Aiden meets Mathew after going through Eddies sacred lands or spirits and memory. Finds out mom died too. Aiden says fuck it Im going to be brutal with everyone.

Kills Dantes dad.

Taking care of Camila , his lil sis, and meets Wally again. Lovey lovey again.

Frank is like “bro nah thats a god youre a mortal” Aiden is like “you right” and tries to break up with Wally but Wally is like “Wait no, fuck the rules” and Aiden is like “…touché”

Aiden proposes, they marry

Maybe a kid? Debating.

Dante has a kid.

Dante sends assassins, Aiden kills them. Brutal with his opponents. Sacrifices his men. Goes through mutiny. Howdy like “lol death to your crew”. Best friend dies but also finds out that friend is who killed Dantes blinded brother which led to Aidens dads death.

Aiden tries to break off with Wally again because of everything hes been through he doesnt want that for Wally. Wally is like “Calm down—“

Lovey lovey

Dante has a dream of killing Aiden. Gets his crew for a strike.

Kills Aiden. Aiden says goodbye to his sister as shes taken away to safety as his home burns.

Wally grieving when he finds out

Kills Dante

Camila (adult now) comes back and calms Wally down. Befriends him.

Camila dies of old age.

Wally is learning to deal with grief.

Meets Aiden again as reincarnation.

Continues to love him through reincarnation and reincarnation.

Eventually gives up his divinity to live as mortal with Aiden.

Aka, Welcome to me making up deity designs because why the hell not

✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️

It started with this drawing I made of a Julie that I call Moon Deity

And people on twitter have been eating that up so I've felt some motivation to continue working on it

Today I'm sharing the 4 first deities I've finished

❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️

Julie Joyful

Deity of the moon and oceans. Do not be fooled by her elegant and beautiful appearance, for she's an energic goddess that will bend bodies of water to her emotional will.

The moon is often associated to calmness, feminity, such things, but I decided to go with an other approach. The moon is small and fast. She turns around the earth every day of the year, and is responsible for the tides. The closer she is, the bigger the tide ! That doesn't sound that much calm to me. In this AU Julie appears calm only because Sally insist that she has to dress "regal" for their very important deity jobs. Isn't that silly ?

Julie will have alternate outfits depending on the activity she wants to do at any given moment, switching from pants to dress !

✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️

Sally Starlet

Deity of the Sun, stars and fire, she is the calm one, most of the time. Warm, but also a little stuck up sometimes, Sally likes when things are in order and go her way. She sees their deity roles as important ! The fiery goddess also gives her blessings in the arts, especially theater art which she favors

The sun doesn't move as much as the moon, but it is big and powerful and at the center of our solar system. I like the idea of reversing roles a little, having the sun being the calm one for once

✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️

Home

The deity of death is a kind and compassionate fellow. He doesn't talk much, but listens very well, and will help souls pass to their afterlife with all the compassion in the world. He is also the patron of living spaces, as he wants to make sure beings live well, safe, sound and happy, before he comes to take them away.

I like it when death deities aren't cruel but instead very kind and comforting. Home will have a lot of little helpers ! Although, note that Home is the deity of death as in he's the reaper. There is other deities ruling over the concept of death ! Home is more of a psychopomp in this AU ( psychopomps are the "reaper" deities. It includes Valkyries, Ankous, Shinigamis, Grim Reaper, etc)

❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️

Wally Darling

The deity of life ! He creates and gives in abondance, whenever he can. He may not be particularly smart, or doesn't pay that much attention to his creations past their conception and first breath, but he means well and is still learning. He's a fairly new deity, replacing the previous one. Home is there to kindly help guide him to his new duties, along with Barnaby.

He's just a silly trying his best with great powers. Life is pretty mysterious, and not easy. The path is long and full of hardships, after all... but I don't think what gives the first breath of life is cruel for it. Life is still beautiful and should be cherished

❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️

Bonus Appleblossom sketch because this is my self indulgent au so I will put in my ocs, headcanons and fav ships !

Hey There! How would the puppets say react to more "modern" stuff (given that they're from the 60-70s, and we now have more advanced tech, VR, electric cars, Alexa, etc)

OMG this sounds so cute!

Welcome Home Cast Reacting to Modern Technology:

TW: None

📺 Wally would be super excited, asking about absolutely everything. It would be especially exciting for him to learn about how phone's have changed. They are now tiny slabs that you carry everywhere with you! He's probably going to end up sitting on your couch, playing art games on your phone.

📺 Poppy would be both enthusiastic and weary of checking out the kitchen of your home. She was already a little anxious about getting injured in her own kitchen, so now she is extra anxious, due to all of this new technology. Once you teach her what everything does, however, she is happy to get back to baking and to try out all of these new gadgets.

📺 Eddie would be interested in learning how the new mail system works. That, and learning about electric cars. He's always had a passing interest in transportation, mostly due to him transporting mail, so learning about how cars have changed is very interesting! Same with trains, too!

📺 Frank would have an interest in everything, much like Wally, but he has a particular interest in e-books. People can now keep books on their phones? He believes it doesn't hold a candle to physically owning the book, but does seem how useful it could be if you cannot get your hands on it.

📺 Sally is astonished by the television. It is so flat, like paper! It also has a better quality image on the screen? How can it do that when it is so flat? You could watch so many shows, too! What is a "streaming service"?

📺 Julie really likes the internet. You can talk to so many people in so many ways! There are these games, too, that you call "MMOs". So many people in one place! Then there is this "YouTube" that you can watch videos on, made by people. She especially loves the makeup videos, finding it satisfying to watch others put it on and see how their faces change.

📺 Howdy is a bit conflicted. He liked things the way they were before, however, change doesn't necessarily mean bad. He'll try out the new gadgets and technology. Online shopping is where he gets especially spooked, though. He can't really understand why someone would want to buy things without physically holding them, first! He... he CAN understand shopping online for things that are not available in your area or country... but didn't you say that there was that Wal-Mart down the street? Why would you buy things from an online Wal-Mart when you can just go to the physical one?

📺 Barnaby is mostly interested in using this new technology for his jokes. If you have any sort of soundboard, be it a physical one or on your phone, he will love it. If you teach him about memes, he will practically fall in love with them. Put a few sounds associated with memes on a soundboard, leave him be, then he will be entertained for about three hours as he makes jokes. Just be warned that he will want all of you to listen to every single one. He's proud of his work.

📺 If you somehow have Home in your... well... home, then it's probably a miniature version of Home. So, if you have Home, and are able to show it all the new gadgets you have in your time period, it will be most interested in Alexa. She can turn your lights on and off with just a small command! It can play music, look up stuff, basically anything! Is it especially interested in the ways Alexa can do things around the home.

[TRANSCRIPT]

Walter: Sup.

Barnaby: You, apparently. What are you doing up there?

Walter: This baby's delicate! I can't actually afford to put any weight on her organs. Luckily, your boy's a genius.

As he says this, he undoes the leg harness suspending him from the ceiling, pausing for a moment to grab onto the dangling cords. He then throws himself backwards off of them, presumably intending to land on his feet but missing and crashing out of frame.

Bella: Hah, yeah. Real brainiac here.

As he sits up and takes her offering of water, Wally can be seen looking at him in disgusted confusion. Then, Walter notices him looking.

Walter: What the fuck?! Why is there another me?!? And why's he so short too?

Jax (offscreen): Walter! Dude!

Wally: I don't know, why do you look like you've been run over by a car?

Poppy (also offscreen): Wally!

Walter: Haha, I have actually! Several times in fact. Comes with the job I guess. (to the other neighbors) but anyway, who are all of you?

Wally rolls his eyes, before suddenly looking around him in shock.

[END TRANSCRIPT]

Finally, after far too long waiting, he is here! Page 9, and the official introduction of Walter! He's quite the character, and different from the OG in a lot of ways. For one, his favorite fruits are pears not apples, and also he isn't actually a demon! He's something else entirely ;)

On a different note, turns out I had a spare pen in my desk drawer, plus I've ordered a 4th along with a fresh bag of backup nibs, so hopefully we won't be having any more issues! I would've mentioned it earlier, but given the absolute rollercoaster we've been on the past several weeks I was scared I might jinx it if I spoke too soon. Luckily though, we've made it through this page unscathed, and more are underway! Stay tuned!
