#The Blessed and the Damned

i have so much of these to make

[miatartistry]

Thank you for this work I know it must’ve been grueling. I’ll definitely make use of some of them tho

Some things we may have forgotten

I've been rewatching MCD and taking extensive notes on it in hopes that I'll never have to watch it again and this is just a list of things that I don't see mentioned or brought up very often/ever that we should talk about and think about more

In the first episode Garroth tries to attack Vylad (angst potential) and Vylad literally just combat locks him by logging out of the game. This is objectively funny and should not be rewritten in any capacity. This should be canon as it is in every universe.

Aphmau's cat Meowki gets randomly killed in Episode 12 by a skeleton while Kiki is right upstairs. Just saying, there's some angst potential there.

In episode 11 Garroth reveals that he knows some medicine. Pretty sure this is never brought up again, but we could always bring it up.

Logan is apparently good with a bow while Zenix is trash at it despite being a self proclaimed "expert archer" which I think is very funny (I know this is part of Zenix's cover but what if we took it seriously it would be so funny)

Zoey is originally from the river village, as is Donna. Pretty sure they retcon that for Zoey, but I like to think the two of them could have been friends before Phoenix Drop.

Garroth actually almost dies in episode 15. Like Dr. Doctor says he will probably die soon at the start of the episode. And he doesn't get healed until episode 20. He literally spends 5 episodes laid up in bed dying.

Brendan's at his side probably angsting the entire time I'm just saying if you want sad gay fanfics, it's sitting right there!

Azura and Garroth were friends as kids??? Hello???? I think this is just a massive plot hole considering what Garroth's actual backstory ends up being asjfgshjdfgjk

Okay but if we twist it a little bit, they were friends as kids as in like at the guard academy??? Bc they're like vaguely teenage/young adult so maybe that's what she means? In which case I wanna think about that more because childhood friends to lovers is one of my favorite romance arcs ever. But is it really childhood friends if you met when you were like... 18?? And you're in your like mid to late twenties probably, I wouldn't really classify that as childhood friends.

WAIT IT GETS WORSE!

I don't... I don't even have a joke here, this is just a massive plot hole. Like all of this is just not true to Garroth's backstory as we know it. Grew up in the same village? You mean O'Khasis?? Where Garroth also FAKED HIS DEATH????

I literally don't know what to say to this I was just trying to find silly little facts to try and incorporate into my rewrite and instead I found a massive gaping plot hole

Moving on, in episode 19 when Aphmau confronts Zenix and they fight, he actually apologizes to her. As if he regrets having to hurt her for the sake of his/the Shadow King's goals.

The Lord of Brightport says the Shadow King "used to be a lord". Which like... Okay, I can bend backwards a few ways to say that he could be referring to how Shad started Falcon Claw, but how the fuck does this dude know that??? I feel like Laurance constantly just stumbling into plot holes by complete accident

Dale is apparently a Garmau shipper, going as far as to ask Aphmau if she plans on hooking up with Garroth. I like to think that he and Molly have a bet going for how long it takes for one of the two of them to finally fess up.

Raven's mom tried to eat him??

Okay then.

Zombie apocalypse AU hualian designs for my fanfic that I WILL finish.. for real guys...

Oh, Aang, you're really in it now...

This is Zu—I mean, Jian Li and Katara's second meeting in the Kyoshi Warriors AU. The first proper one, anyway.

Once they get through a minor difference of opinion or two (“I can carry my own basket!” “Never said you—” “I'm not weak!” “I didn't—” “Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean—” “Would you listen for once, woman?!” ) they'll become nearly inseparable.

For now Jian Li will carry Katara's basket all the way to the Kyoshi Warriors' dojo and, once there, they'll mercilessly tease Sokka when they see him in uniform.

Laurance fighting like this WHILE blind?? Oh you KNOWWWW my rewrite finna have this

ok i feel like Laurance’s skill level is so overlooked/forgotten in MCD fr. like let us not forget that he was Meteli’s head guard… and he was LITERALLY IN LINE FOR A SPOT ON THE JURY? HELLO?! not to mention his definite enhancements after his transformation. I NEED TO READ A GNARLY LAURANCE FIGHT SCENE. i know he is more lean and not as burly as Garroth, but i have always felt like he has a nimbleness and unique and clever fighting style. like give me Laurance using speed and agility and stealth and the terrain to his advantage RIGHT NOW. I need it. somebody write it. i beg. i’m rolling on the floor foaming at the mouth and barking and dying.

like you cannot tell me that man doesn’t fight dirty but in the most graceful way possible. HE WASNT A JURY CANDIDATE FOR NOTHINGGGG. like give me Laurance surprising the enemy by dropping down from a tree. give me a Laurance that is renowned for his ability to catch people off guard with his attacks and fighting methods. i will die on this hill.

perseids and northern lights?!!?! magical ✨

what a silly elderly man

[miatartistry]

i don’t know what possessed me to make this but the second part is already finished

[miatartistry]

how about 1 out of 5

Aphmau Rewriters Try Not To Challenge PT 2

No queer headcanons that are just you projecting onto the characters

no making Aphmau a cottage core girly or a buff warrior princess

no more giving Aaron animal pelts

No more grimdark/eldritch horror elements

no more making Zane (or any of the Ro’Meaves) an outlet to explore your religious trauma

*writing down notes furiously*

I feel like there should be small little things of cultural significance in Ru'aun.

The royal and high class of O'khasis have long, luxurious and healthy hair, mixed with glittering tinsel and jewlery as a statis symbol of their wealth.

Mothers are seen as sacred, Ru'aun's goddess of choice is Irene, the image of health, motherhood and kindness. Baby showers are almost expected if not only common. It is to be celebrated when someone is having a child.

Lords wearing the symbol of their towns' god. Weapons for head guards and honorable knights being imbued with the symbols of their gods to bless them with protection.

Most people knowing at least beginner healing magics, as Irene was seen as a master of it.
