#alnst oc: macbeth

[brightstarofnoct]

what do you think of your classmates sirius : D ?

JIU ( @severedscales ): He’s fascinating, in a way. So studious, so monotonous. He seems to act strange in front of that Kioku girl. I think it’s a little bit funny how we almost wear our hair similarly. Would it be weird if I said I wanted to dissect him?

KIOKU (same as above): Very forgetful. I want to know why… but I can’t just go up to someone and ask, “Why is your memory horrible?” She’s so friendly. She reminds me of sunflowers. I might give her one some day.

NENE: Her brightness is very blinding, it’s a little bit annoying. She’s always writing letters. Either that, or she’s pining over some girl like a loser. I deliver her work sometimes. I try not to think about her, really.

XAEL: He doesn’t like me. It’s fun to mess with him.

NUMA: Arguably one of the most interesting in ANAKT Garden. He has such a warm feeling about him… it’s not overwhelming, or bad. He’s always so nice. He has so much energy, he loves sports, but he’s not a sore loser. He’s even willing to teach others how to play with him. I worry for him sometimes when I notice he spends too long in the bathroom and comes out looking rather pale. I see it normally happens right after lunch, if he eats. He usually skips it. It’s so odd to me how much energy he has even if I almost never see him eat. I want to know everything about him.

ZERO ( @myworld-collapsing ): Zero is like a shadow. I think their name is fitting. I don’t really see Zero, but I feel him around me. He’s obsessed with me. I don’t mind it, though. I think it’s cute. I like seeing his reactions.

ASAHI (same as above): I don’t believe in matchmaking. I often find myself annoyed with her for a reason I can’t describe.

DANTE ( @imperfectnothing ): I like him. He’s very helpful to me. I appreciate the company he brings. Dante himself doesn’t scare me, but… There’s something about the way he makes me feel. It’s different. That’s what’s scary. I don’t want to hurt him for loving me. I don’t know exactly what that means. I might tell him when I know what this feeling is.

MILL ( @waterydream ): Mill is like me. Mill and I share a lot of the same attributes. I don’t have to “pretend” with Mill. He told me I didn’t have to. That neither of us have to. But still, I wouldn’t call them a friend. Sometimes Mill does say things that seem a little bit targeted, though I wouldn’t call it annoying. I’d say we’re acquaintances at most.

TOKI ( @eventseraphim ): What a freak. It’s like he saw through my facade the moment we met. He likes bullying me as if it’s a joke. It doesn’t matter, though. He makes for an interesting friend. I will say that he is quite lucky I didn’t come to ANAKT for new test subjects���

INNAMORATI ( @alien-til-i-stage ): Very friendly. I don’t like it when he messes with me. I don’t want to show it and hurt his feelings, he seems fragile.

MACBETH (same as above): “To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day, to the last syllable of recorded time; and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” … Sorry. He’s named after a show I’ve read before and enjoyed, that’s all. I like Shakespeare. It’s interesting to me how humans used to talk… I think Macbeth is very well named. I wonder if he’s read the play…

YUME ( @sotogalmo ): So odd. I want to take Yume apart to see how what makes him tick. Is that so wrong?

YVONNE ( @aakaneeee ): Hm. She reminds me of vines. To be loved by her is to be trapped in a thorny embrace for all eternity…

ELIANA (same as above): I don’t know why Nene finds her interesting. Nene has such odd tastes…  At least Eliana is pretty.

YAEL ( @lookatmysillies ): He’s such an enabler. He doesn’t know what he’s doing to me, and I’d like to keep it that way. He doesn’t need to know anything I don’t need to tell him.

[verdantlights]

CLOVE: LOG 2

No TWs apply

-

The color green is pretty. Sometimes he stares at the fake trees of ANAKT and wishes they were a darker green. The leaves are too bright, too vibrant. He says as such to Aster every single time the thought crosses his mind.

"I believe you." Is all they say.

Clove smiles warmly at his... best friend? Partner? He doesn't know and doesn't really care. He has Aster, and that's all that really matters to him. Aster makes him happy and gives him hope, despite the numerous times it's been stripped of him before.

Even after learning what will happen to him if he loses in the upcoming competition, he believes it'll be fine if Aster will be there with him.

But they won't.

Aster isn't part of the competition.

"Hey Aster...?"

"Hm?"

"Would... your owner... actually want to adopt me?"

Aster doesn't respond for a while. Clove doesn't mind. A lot of their time spent together is in silence amongst the flowers that feel wrong in Clove's hands. He knows what real flowers look like. He remembers his siblings; they were real flowers. Aster is a real flower, too. He likes the silence.

"I hope so. I haven't asked them yet. If I can convince them, then we'll be free. We'd still be pets, but at least we'd be together."

Clove's smile is brighter than the real sun he's never seen before. Aster can't see it, and never could, but Clove is sure they could sense it.

Because Aster returned that smile, and everything was okay.

-

Aster gave him the good news that their owner would adopt Clove at some point before ALIEN STAGE starts. He was bouncing on his feet in excitement at the idea of escaping with his favorite person ever.

Nothing else matters anymore, not even the redhead who was lurking nearby, listening to everything.

TOKI: LOG 1

TWs: suicide instigation, manipulation tactics, general shitty behavior from Toki

-

"Hey Wren..."

The girl turns around from where she was sitting, "Huh? Toki?"

"You're friends with Clove, right?" A subtle smile makes his way onto his face.

"...What did you do?"

She has every right to be suspicious, really. Toki can't blame her.

"Oh, nothing! I just heard from a little birdie somewhere that him and- well- said little birdie plan on escaping...!"

Wren's eyes widen, "Are you serious?? What the hell are they thinking?"

"Clearly neither of them were thinking at all. They were sitting around a bunch of flowers... It'd be such a shame if the staff found out about their plan ya know."

"Toki... that's cruel, even for you."

Oh he could be so much worse, but he won't tell her that.

"It's not like they don't already know, like I said, they were sitting in a patch of those fake-ass red flowers."

"Just leave it, man."

Toki scoffs, "'Kay fine."

He saunters off to find his next victim. There's a few people he could chat with, but he's picked up on a few things from two lonely background characters. They seem to be getting... worse.

Yael looks crazier by the day and Macbeth looks more hollow. A bit amusing, really. Yael graduated and Macbeth didn't, which makes it all the more ironic.

The thing is, he doesn't really care about Yael. His beloved already doesn't like him and is trying to get him away from Macbeth. So Inna not liking Yael is a win, but that makes Macbeth even more of a problem.

He could go on and on for hours why he hates that basic bitch so much. Macbeth grates on his nerves to no extent just by breathing.

Toki mutters under his breath, "Wish he'd just give up on your ass."

He pauses, the gears in his brain starting to turn. He thinks about the things he's overheard and the conversations he's had with Yael. He thinks about Yael with Macbeth.

Death is mercy. Death is freedom. Isn't that what Yael goes on about?

Oh.

Oh! I have an idea.

-

He finds Macbeth in some faraway, unsuspecting dark corner of ANAKT and leans against the wall, hovering over the sitting figure.

Without moving, the figure speaks, "What do you want, jackass."

Toki gasps dramatically, "Ouch! I'm wounded Macbeth..."

"Go fuck yourself."

He grins cheekily, "No thanks! I have a certain light-blue-haired boyfriend to do that for me!"

Macbeth finally moves, only to look up with utter disgust at Toki, who turns away to cackle into his hand.

"Yeah, yeah! That's the spirit! Anyway," Toki crouches down to Macbeth's level and appears to switch from teasing to sinister, "Why are you still alive? What's the point?"

Macbeth makes no move once again, only staring blankly at Toki.

He continues to glare at Macbeth, who finally speaks: "Like I'd tell you."

Toki scoffs, "Figures. Stuck up bitch."

"You want me dead sooo bad..."

Toki feels his eye twitch, "Yeah so, about that!"

-

The glorious feeling of Inna coming to him in tears about Macbeth dying and Yael being found with him really can't be described in words.

But Toki schools his face into something halfway sympathetic, the rest being pity. He opens his arms as a silent offering for a hug and Inna, after moving around and not knowing what to do with himself, finally gives in and runs into Toki's arms.

"I've got you, it'll be okay. I'll hold you and listen to you for as long as you need. I'm not going anywhere."

CLOVE: LOG 3

TWs: brief nausea mention, implied panic attack

-

ALIEN STAGE starts in two weeks. They've announced each round's contestants and have started the interviews, and Clove has felt nothing but nauseous.

Aster promised they'd get them both out of here before it started. They had six months to plan it. Aster is nowhere to be found.

Clove is laying in the fetal position in his bed, hoping that Aster comes back and saves him from this fate.

He doesn't stand a chance against Toki.

He saw the look on his face whenever their round was announced. He looked excited. Clove felt his gut churn. He couldn't do this.

He was going to lose to Toki. He was going to die to Toki.

Clove fears death. The students are supposed to be taught that dying is an honor, but Clove knows better.

Clove doesn't want to die. He wants to live happily with Aster.

Where is Aster?

TOKI: LOG 2

TWs: suicide mention

-

Toki watched the end of Round One and hummed to himself. He's excited to watch Clove lose and honestly can't wait for his round.

He wants to see Inna right now.

Inna seems to be a bit worse for wear, still oddly grieving the death of Macbeth. Toki had a near heart-attack when Inna asked him if he had anything to do with Macbeth's death a few months back. He managed to convince Inna he didn't, and once he learned that Wren was the one who told him that, he shut her out.

He told himself that if he were to go up against her, he'd play dirty to win for doing something like that.

Unfortunately, they're on opposite sides of the bracket. The chance of them going against each other is very low.

Now that ALIEN STAGE has officially started, everyone in his class is tense.

He can understand why, but he still doesn't feel scared or tense at all.

He just can't wait to see the outcome of Round Six and his own highly anticipated Round Seven.

-

It comes as an actual surprise to him when days later, before Round Six, he learns that Aster had taken their own life. He chuckles to himself as he walks away from the segyein conversation he was eavesdropping on.

CLOVE: LOG 4

TWs: panic attacks, violence, suicide mention

-

Clove feels faint. He's swaying in place.

He's been dressed for his performance. Been dressed for his death.

Toki approaches him, making the pit in his stomach sink further.

He's wearing a manic grin, also fully dressed for their performance.

"Why are you making that face? You look insane..."

Toki snorts, "It's a funny story, actually. Might as well tell you what I heard the other day."

"H-Huh?"

"I overheard a conversation between some of the segyein staff. I believe one of them was Aster's owner, now that I think about it. I heard a lot of 'my property' being said, so that's most likely the case. Anyway, Aster apparently killed themself."

Clove's face falls in horror. Toki takes a few more steps, towering over Clove and looking down on him, still wearing that manic smile.

"I think I know why, too," He puts his hands in his pockets, feigning nonchalance, "It's because a certain someone wanted to escape with them, am I right? What, did you really think Aster's owner would actually get out of this competition? You know how the segyein feel about this stupid event."

He laughs. It sounds warped and mean.

Clove grabs Toki by his and yanks him down to his level, "What did you do."

Toki chokes, stumbling at the unexpected violence from Clove. They both know how much of a pacifist Clove is.

"How interesting! Bold of you to assume I did anything."

"Obviously you told them! How else would they have known what we were trying to do?"

Toki chokes out a laugh, "Are you fucking dumb? I just told you that the segyein don't like it when us pets go against their command. You wanted to get out of ALIEN STAGE to be with your silly little lover, so you asked them to grovel at their owner's feet, begging them to save you. Did you think that went without punishment?"

Clove let's go of Toki's choker as if it had burned him.

It feels like he's on fire.

Toki massages his neck where the choker had dug into him. He sighs as he turns around, walking away.

"Good luck out there! I look forward to competing with you, Clove."

He leaves without another word. Clove can't speak.

Aster... what?

That... that was a joke, right?

Hey... hey there's... there's no way...

"Th- N-"

He can't breathe.

He can't get air into his lungs.

This stupid fucking suit is suffocating him.

He needs to leave.

He needs to get out.

He can't do this.

Aster was supposed to-

They were supposed-

Why...

He's alone in the room. The room that's spinning. He's dizzy and he falls to his knees, unable to hold himself up. He's hyperventilating and he's crying. His ears are ringing and his head is pounding.

He goes on stage in 20 minutes.

He has 20 minutes to get his shit together enough to go out there and meet Aster.

He can't do this anymore.

TOKI: LOG 3

No TWs apply.

-

One of the guards barks a command: "You're on in five. Get in position, you two."

Toki looks at Clove and chuckles, "It's game time, motherfucker."

Clove doesn't respond.

Toki feels ecstatic.

ALNST S40 OCs Naz & Yael Official Profiles

Since I never actually posted their official profiles, here are their profiles & assets for @season40! Once again, art for both by @rockwgooglyeyes, he does lots of amazing oc art over on his blog!

Yael and Naz have both lost people very dear to them (Akane @aakaneeee & Macbeth @alien-til-i-stage, respectively) shortly before their season and are dealing with the fallout as they hit the stage. Their closest confidants at the time of S40 are Can @14-alc (warily reciprocated) and Inna (wildly one-sided) for Yael and Wren @ivanttakethis (Naz likes to act like it's one-sided) for Naz

By S40, they share a guardian, Guardian Ebej. Naz was Ebej's first pet human and he was intrigued by her outbursts and uncontrollable fluxes of emotion. He purchased Yael after Yael's guardian sold them, exhausted of having to deal with Yael's strange and morbid behaviors. Ebej further encouraged Yael's mental illness and fueled his delusions by sending him on a "mission" after graduation from Anakt Garden to spread the word about the Great Anakt, which Yael claims to have seen firsthand from two near-death experiences (one when they were a small child and tried to end their own life by drowning themselves, only saved by Can; then again before graduation when they acquired a bad concussion in a physical fight with Inna).

Here are their pictures for the brackets:

hi hi hi hi! I hope your doing ok 🥺💖 (I might send another ask IM SORRY)

How does Kio and Jiu think about Macbeth's "suicide"?

ABOUT: MACBETH

( @alien-til-i-stage )

It can't be helped. That's what I keep telling myself: it simply can't be helped.

Unfortunate events befall us constantly. Perhaps that's just our fate as lowly beings, we were never meant to fly this close to the sun. I've seen enough to know that humans will only ever be one of two things: miserable or dead. If it's not one, it's the other, and if it's neither, then soon enough it will be both.

Macbeth was... an eccentric character, to say the least. Pretentious, self-aggrandizing, but we did have an agreement together at one point (a rather childish one, frankly, though we both benefitted from not seeing those two certain people together) so I cannot say he is entirely disagreeable.

To watch such an odd personality slowly diminish into a shell of its former self... I've seen it happen far too often. My only question is... why?

I pride myself on the fact that I know things. I organize, manage, keep everything in its place to the best of my ability. Even the distasteful, unspeakable things, I've learned to face rather desensitized. Yet even so, there is much that I am not privy to. Especially when it comes to certain matters of the heart, there is much I do not understand (or rather, I've refused myself the privilege to). Nene, Macbeth, strange deaths that I cannot yet reason with...

...Nevermind it. It's not my place. What's done is done.

...Who?

[solei-eclipse]

HI!!!

I was wondering what Kio and Jiu would think of Macbeth and Inna? and maybe Lilith but I don’t think they would know her too well (mostly bc shes an alien model but maybe theyve heard about her)

I think Inna would find Jiu to be really similar to Macbeth and maybe tries really hard to make the two of them friends.

Inna: look hes just like you

Macbeth: wtf why you just carry him over here???

He would also consider Jiu as a close friend, even if Jiu didn’t think the same. Maybe like everyday for a moment or two he tries to find Jiu to pester him a bit.

I also think Inna would really like Kio and bond with her. Like the two of them run and play around the garden together and maybe even race a bit! (Kio always wins)

Meanwhile I think Macbeth wouldn’t really interact with Jiu too much, but he would notice that Jiu seems to have smth going on with Kio, that he just acts differently with her. He wouldn’t care too much bc it doesn’t involve him, choosing to instead ignore it.

I also think Macbeth would be pretty annoyed by Kio and tries to avoid talking to her, same reasons as he does with Inna. He just doesn’t like them. If Kio was running around he’d try to find somewhere else to be

jiu 🤝 macbeth

kio 🤝 inna

this is SO fun to me, especially inna finding jiu similar to macbeth. the two duos are kind of like mirrors of each other, inna and jiu both have blue(ish) hair and blue eyes, yet Inna is lighter and brighter while Jiu's hair is so dull it's basically black. His eyes are steely as well, definitely not as bright as Inna's.

Kio and Macbeth both share a brownish color, but Kio is warmer both physically and personality wise.

INNA CARRYING JIU? HELP. His expression was definitely 🗿 the whole time.

Unfortunately Jiu would not appreciate being pestered 😭 in his head he'd register Inna as a bit of a pest and make a mental note to avoid him when they're about to cross paths. Nothing personal against Inna (I guess, Jiu doesn't hate him), Jiu just doesn't want to be bothered when he's so busy. It's really nice how Inna sees him as a friend, though! I think Jiu would feel guilty about that, he doesn't feel deserving of it. Still, it would make him feel a little bit soft.

INNA AND KIO WOULD BE GREAT FRIENDS! They'd definitely play around a lot! Their personalities seem like a perfect fit for each other and their vibes would mesh really well. Kio would reach the finish line first, and if Inna was still farther behind she'd be cheering him on!

Most of all, she'd like the blue of Inna's eyes. It reminds her of something, but she can't properly recall...

Macbeth clocking Jiu and Kio's tension but going 'thats not my problem' is SO real. stay unbothered king.

Macbeth (tries to avoid Kio) 🤝 Jiu (tries to avoid Inna)

Kio and Inna would be an absolute force to be reckoned with actually 😭 Jiu already feels awkward with Kio, but now that she's hanging with Inna... Jiu is going to apply reverse magnetism and immediately swerve at the sight of them.

Partly because they're a great bother, and partly because... well... it makes him bitter. Seeing the two together is like a childhood memory coming to life just to mock him.

FNAF Alnst OC au........

Toki as Vanny.... The song "For You" by NightCove_thefox..... (Toki: @zerostyrant )

Innamorati as Tapegirl (for the Vanny tape girl yuris).... Tho I rlly don't know.,,,

Macbeth is Gregory. He's Gregory to me (inna & mac: @alien-til-i-stage )

[lookatmysillies]

I was thinking when I read this post that Inna would be one of those characters everyone woobifies and You Will Die in fandom spaces if you don’t like him while Macbeth is reduced to “poor traumatized gay boy” while meanwhile he is traumatized but in fact very responsible for his own actions and also. Hey can we not ignore that he’s aroace, asks somebody in the back. They Die ✨

For my OCs, I can tell you right now that Castor would be dumbed way down to the comedic relief, ignoring that his constant joking is a coping mechanism for severe trauma. LIKE YES I JOKE ABOUT HIM BEING A DUMBDUMB ALL THE TIME BUT I ALSO WRITE ABOUT HIS MENTAL BREAKDOWNS SO THERE’S A BALANCE—

Kyo would be like Till where people either take his hotheadedness too far and make him literally just the most inexcusably mean person ever, or woobify him to hell and make him a super sensitive bottom energy twink

Himei and Naz would probably be villainized by some people for expressing morally gray thoughts as women. Oh No. Naz is probably also dumbed down like Cas and there’s not enough focus on her as an individual without Akane because people focus too much on their relationship and not enough on them as people

Itsaso would probably be sidelined constantly. She gives those vibes

Tallis’s character would also clearly have no life outside of his relationships

Eddy is woobified and treated like a baby. Yael is loved by 50% and hated by the other 50. Would probably have terrible analyses on his mental state and whether he’s evil or completely innocent (because there is obviously no middle ground). Macbeth’s aroaceness is ignored in their dynamic (because obviously an aroace person and someone who is romantically and sexually inclined can’t be partners who have strong feelings for each other). Massive brain 👍

wait this aould be so cool

Can we start a thing where we show the canon ver of our alnst oc and then a fanon ver of how they would be mischaracterized if they were in a popular show

[aquarichor]

TW for semi graphic depictions of cannibalistic behaviors!!

Butcher Vanity - Vane Lily, Jamie Paige, ricedeity

Toki was abandoned and left to fend for himself at a very young age. He has no real memory of his parents, if he was genetically modified, or if he was bred for any purpose. All he remembers is the howling pit in his stomach.

He’s… always hungry. Nothing satisfies his stomach. He’s learned to deal with it as he grew older, even if it got more difficult once he was taken to ANAKT Garden. His current guardian found him hunched over a dead body, gnawing flesh off the bone of the poor human soul who didn’t stand a chance against a starving thirteen-year-old. The alien that found him was put off by the crude sight, to say the least, but it persisted and took the child away.

Toki went down with a fight. He bit, clawed, and scratched at the alien who took him from his meal, only to be drugged and subdued, eventually put in a collar. His guardian made sure to put his cannibalistic tendencies on his file, so that he can be closely monitored around his classmates.

His start at ANAKT Garden was rocky, and he was incredibly rebellious. He would constantly get into fights, leaving the other person with bloody bite marks and deep scratches. This led to him being muzzled 24/7 and treated more like a misbehaving pet than any of the other human-pets. This is around the time he realized that he won’t get what he wants if he doesn’t behave.

It was also around the time he befriended Innamorati, another student in his class. A boy with light blue hair and royal blue eyes. Toki found him pretty, to say the least, but he liked him more because of his blind kindness. If Inna knew what Toki did, or what he does, he clearly doesn’t care and sees past it.

Inna has drawn things for Toki. He keeps all the drawings Inna gives him and puts them all over the walls next to his bed. He’s not allowed to have a roommate, nor is any student allowed to be alone in Toki’s room with him, so there’s no one to complain about him hanging up Inna’s art. (Inna doesn’t know Toki does this btw)

Inna also taught Toki how to dance, which is where he found his love for it. He loves dancing, even more so with Inna.

Issues start to arise once again whenever he becomes aware of Macbeth’s presence. Whenever he becomes aware of… everyone’s presence. He sees other people playing and interacting with Inna and can’t help but feel anger towards these people. Inna should have his eyes on Toki.

But Toki behaves. He decides to go the route of studying people. He studies Inna the most, obviously, but he also studies the people he talks to. He learns what makes them tick, what’s special to them, and their mannerisms. He learns to smile and entertain people to get as much information as possible. It even helps him get on the good side of his guardian and earn his label as a good pet. Once he knows enough about another person, he turns everyone onto them. He frames, backstabs, blackmails, and gaslights. (gaslight gatekeep girlboss yk)

His first victim was Macbeth, and now no one likes Macbeth. He knew a lot of people already didn’t like them very much, but the things Toki did to make Inna hate them was enough to get everyone to hate them. Toki sees the poor thing sit and sulk in a corner, closed off and ignoring anyone and everything. He feels no pity.

All he feels is his love for Inna, and the still, slow growing, pit in his stomach. Maybe Inna can satiate his hunger.

But maybe not… Rabbits aren’t meant to be predators, so he’ll continue playing prey.

☆

Other fun things to note!!

Toki is toxic as hell with so many red flags... Inna is colorblind /j

Cannibal!! ...willingly

Obsessive and possessive personality

Severe lack of empathy

Semi black and white thinking

Ridiculously manipulative

With his obsession over Inna, he can still have friends and does enjoy others' company, but he ultimately turns on them if they get in the way of him and Inna.

He would only let Inna have friends if they were friends with Toki, too

Toki's name means rabbit in Korean!! "토끼" "Tokki" (hehe there is a specific meaning for this :3)

Naturally pretty flexible, does a lot of stretching before bed and in the mornings. In a modern/actor au, he'd have a background of childhood gymnastics.

Sits in some really strange and compromising positions... (my little pretzel <3)

I make playlists for all my OCs across many fandoms, and Toki is no exception. His playlist is already done and it is here:

At the top of each lore post will be a song from the playlist that I feel fits the post :3

Innamorati/Inna and Macbeth belong to @alien-til-i-stage !!! hii pookie :3

[lookatmysillies]

Yael Fun (Tragic) Facts!

Since he has the least amount of screen time of any of my OCs so far, he’s some tidbits of his character to help get to know him better:

-He gravitates towards unhealthy relationships whether that be for friends or romantic partners. He has an incredibly toxic and codependent relationship with Macbeth, and after Macbeth’s death, he becomes obsessed with trying to get Innamorati to accept him and accept Macbeth’s passing.

-He could have the potential for a healthier dynamic if @paradisedisconcert is still making their shy little guy

-He’s had multiple unnecessary surgeries done. He’s had organs removed and replaced that were perfectly healthy. He has to have a very specific diet not to aggravate his system after all that’s been done to try and “fix” him.

-Because of this, he has to exclusively eat plain, tasteless food. He misses sweets.

-Tends to wander with seemingly no goal, aimlessly picking petals off of flowers or staring at seemingly nothing

-Before he goes to sleep, he has a routine of pressing his fingers against different spots on his torso to feel if anything is inside that shouldn’t be or otherwise missing. He does this again when he wakes up.

-They’re very interested in his peers and sometimes follows them around without saying anything.

-He and Naz used to be friends, but Naz slowly became freaked out by Yael and pushed him away.

-His hair is always cut short and straightened when he comes back from a visit home. His guardian is wealthy and likes him looking as clean and presentable as possible. Naturally, his hair is curly.

-Left-handed.

-Takes a lot of strange medicines every day that switch out frequently. He has to take them crushed in his food since he can’t swallow pills.

-Born female but leaned more androgynous and masculine as a young child, so they grew up as such.

-Wants to help others but often goes about it the wrong way.

-Their guardian, Aligri, has never sent any humans to Anakt Garden before Yael, who was sent very, very young.

-He has a very blank look about him most of the time.

-Can often be heard singing strange, unfamiliar melodies and words under his breath—he sees singing as ritualistic. He’s never known a life in death without it.

-In addition to Macbeth and Inna, he’s also interested in Naz, Kioku, Yume, Xael, Numa, Sebastian, and Yumi (subject to be added onto, obviously)

-He never really seems happy or childlike, just listless.

-He once had an incident where he almost drowned in the stream in Anakt Garden. He wandered there and was found facedown in the water by a classmate. He was pulled out and had to be revived.

-He had to wear a collar after that.

Are we…. about to make the non canon toxic ship canon right now…. 😳😳😳

Yael and Macbeth refuses to leave my brain. They’re just such a screwed up dynamic and I live for that. They’re very “I hope you die, I hope we both die” core. Like they genuinely do care for one another in some capacity and they rely on one another for companionship, yet that connection drains the life out of both of them. They can only hurt each other, but at least the hurt is nicer than nothing, right? Right?

Then of course Macbeth goes and dies *head in hands* as is the nature of the doomed toxic situationship. And that can set into motion Yael and Inna’s equally fucked up dynamic. THE BILLFORD COMPARISON IS SO FUNNY TO ME

Inna: I hate you! All you do is hurt people!

Yael:

I think Yael would be confused why Inna isn’t happier that Macbeth is “freed” (while not recognizing his own feelings of loss) and doesn’t understand why Inna hates him so much, so he just tries harder to make him like him like “wait, no, see, I’m a likable person! (lie)” Like with Macbeth, he’s more drawn to people who express dislike for him. I guess bro likes a challenge he’s weird okay—but yeah, Yael could be an interesting outlet for Inna’s grief and anger, and Inna could be an outlet for Yael’s own repressed grief and feelings of confusion.

Also, the bit on Macbeth and Inna being originally intended to be more of a romantic dynamic is so interesting to me, I got those vibes before Toki came along! Their designs are very complimentary, which still makes sense considering their closely connected stories and their complicated sort-of friendship.

Heyo! It’s Vant!!

I wanted to know what Kio and Jiu think of Wren?

ABOUT: WREN

( @ivanttakethis )

Wren! She's so cool! I've heard about the ZYNE stuff from, like, everywhere! And did you see the magazine?! It turns out she and Tov from ALNST S39 are sisters! I heard there was even a time when Tov and the other S39 contestants stayed in our part of the garden! I wish I was there at the time...

Anyways, Wren is like this super talented top trainee who's been in... uh... I-forgot-the-number groups! But I know she was in more than one, and I think that's awesome. Imagine being able to debut so many times! Why'd she leave again? Hold on, give me a second to wrack my brain...

Oh, yeah! There's all those conflict rumors. She sure is a fighter, that Wren. But I love her energy and passion. She doesn't let people push her around at all, and that's a trait I admire so much. Not that I let people shove me around or anything... or maybe I used to. Whenever I see her bare her teeth, I get this weird feeling in my gut. Like I'm a child again, wishing I could've fought back the way she does.

Eh... iunno! It's nothing. Probably. Anyways, I can hold my own pretty well now. I try my hardest not to back down either. I can even beat Mentha in a race! Wren seems kinda scary, but maybe she and I could get along... hope she doesn't mind me being a little starstruck!

Wren is infamous for a number of reasons. She's spent quite a time in the spotlight, even so early on. ZYNE's search and subsequent training program for the perfect girl group created such significant buzz... it was all I could hear about, everywhere I went, for months. There came a point where the gossip of it became irritating, and then horrendously dull.

Though ZYNE launched her quite far into the public eye, I believe Wren captures attention just fine on her own. She's rather brash, and concerningly susceptible to violence. I fear one of these days I may have to pry her off of an offending classmate or two. A hassle, but in a batch as chaotic as this one I'd be foolish to expect any less.

...That's all for surface level, though. I have observed certain behaviors from Wren that lead me to become rather... curious (perhaps suspicious is the more appropriate term, but I'm in no place to string the dots together). Particularly in relation to the past ALNST contestant, Tov, who was stationed amongst our batch for a certain period of time. The pair create a whole new kind of buzz, though something strange seems to linger beneath.

All I can say for certain is this: Wren is trying to protect something. Is it a secret? A person? perhaps the two are one in the same. Regardless, she's working hard to protect it. In that sense, we're not so different.

hiiiiiii :3

how do you think seb, eeta, and yume would react when they learn macbeth has died???

Ouwguahehfahs.

Hmmmm, I actually dunno how Sebastian and Yume would react, I mean. Numb, yes. But then-? I dunno. I mean, at least Seb would've wanted to hang out in some way, or to at least just chill with Mac

Yume is quite indifferent towards death itself, because he's experienced it (more like his facades and such, his small identitys). At first he would think he'd come back since Yume has come back many times, but then he accepts that he won't. Only a small part of him thinks that Macbeth wanted this, and is fine with being dead/ he hopes he rests well, even if it hurts.

Eeta, oh her heart. How it affects Inna breaks her so much. But for her personally, it's also a hard blow. I like to think that she and Inna would talk to each other bout their friends and such, and Eeta would get slightly attached to Mac due to her mother instincts and such (she also tries like Inna!). It's like the time where I lost a pet. It hurts only for the moment, numb throughout life and when in the dumps of life it makes me cry. I think that's how it would be for Eeta, even if that connection is- ehh

[ A wild Kioku approaches Yael ! ]

HEY! Man, are you okay?

I heard you nearly drowned in the river! That's not good at all obviously, and I should know! I've fallen into my fair share of rivers. I saw a green-haired kid fish you out, though, which I'm grateful for. I've only just recently arrived and I'm no good at remembering names, so I couldn't tell you who it was. I'm sorry.

I don't really know you all that well, but I think you should eat something. The other kids tell me to be careful with you, and I've seen you pat your body pretty often, so I'm worried you might have health issues.

Here, take this jelly. It's plain, so hopefully it won't bang up your innards or anything. Don't even worry about where I got it! Haha. Ha. It's super important to eat and gain at least a little more strength! Maybe it'll help you out in the future! you know, with the falling or fainting and drowning stuff... I wonder how you ended up there...

Anyway, I know this is super sudden, but I kinda know what almost-drowning feels like, too. I just wanted to try and help a little bit. I'm not really sure how to do it properly... I just want you to feel better. I hope you can feel better.

Oh, the teacher is coming... I'm gonna run now, see you around!

Hiiii!! This is Para!! Sorry for all that, I just thought it would be silly. I'm here to ask what Yael thinks of Kioku! He's a super interesting character to me, and while you've already explained a bit of his thoughts on Kio, I'd like to ask if you could share any more/explain further? If it's okay with you! The whole angel thing was particularly intriguing...

Love your characters as always, and I truly do enjoy learning more about them :)

[Yael stares back at Kioku with wide eyes like she’s just given him the world rather than a single somewhat unremarkable jelly.]

Oh! Yes, um, it was an accident. A bad one, but I’m still here… Can tells me he’s the one who found me, and I’ll take his word for it. He seems like he would do something like that…

Sorry you’ve fallen into water a lot, too. Drowning feels stranger than I would’ve imagined. A lot worse. Thank you for the food, it almost tastes a little bit sweet if I hold it in my mouth for a while! You really are an angel. [He says this very seriously, though it flies over Kioku’s head. He’s quiet for a moment.]

I hope maybe we can talk more and—oh, yes, go ahead. Goodbye Kioku! The teacher’s probably here to take me for another useless checkup.

Hiii Para! Thanks for dropping this in my inbox, Kioku’s adorable face was the best thing to wake up to earlier today 🥺 To expand on Yael’s thoughts on Kioku a bit, I’ll establish some comparisons with his other fundamental relationships to give you a reference point:

He has the strongest feelings for @paradisedisconcert’s Can and @alien-til-i-stage’s Macbeth and Innamorati, Can being his purest relationship, Macbeth more muddled, and Inna just. Ridiculous. Who even knows

Add Kioku to this bunch of people he takes an especially strong interest in once she arrives, Kio being a person he looks up to and believes wholeheartedly in (due to misguided reasons, but there nonetheless).

He thinks of her as an Angel; Macbeth as Death; Can as Life; and Innamorati as personal Salvation. Kioku and Macbeth both represent “selfless” ideals: He adores Kioku because he believes she is here to save them from their eternal prison—not just to save him, but ALL of them. He truly believes she’s filled with all the good in the world and she can do no wrong in his eyes. His feelings about her are misguided but pure in nature. He also mixes up romantic and platonic feelings a lot, and she is the only one of these 4 he doesn’t feel confused about. I’ve mentioned that he’s subconsciously drawn to unhealthy relationships, Can being (for the most part anyway) an exception. Kioku is too good to have those kinds of feelings for, in Yael’s mind.

His perception of Kioku as an angel is different from his idea of Can as life or Inna as salvation. Can and Inna are what he perceives as his “selfish” ideals. Can isn’t holy or angelic in his eyes, but rather incredibly human; flawed and damaged, proof of their existence. Yael views his own existence, simply existing for himself, as selfish, and Can encourages living for himself. Inna is Yael’s personal salvation from his own mistake of playing a part in Macbeth’s death; Macbeth, who he believed was supposed to die and be free. He missed him so badly and questioned if it would be better for him to still be with him. He can’t change it, though, so he seeks absolution from the last piece of Macbeth there is.

Yael creates his own Saints in his head and Kioku is one of them. She represents a twisted sort of hope to him, and he wants to protect her and help her with whatever she needs to repay her for descending to Anakt Garden.

Thank you for the ask, I love yapping about the children. I love your characters too, I’m excited to learn more about Jiu and Kioku! That said if Jiu hurts her I will be seen on the news

YAEL VS INNA

WE SHOULD DO IT WHEN S40 ROLLS AROUND

This would be such a good one; they would both feel like Macbeth is there too, this unspoken grief that drives a wedge between them. Yael wants desperately to be liked by Inna and for Inna to recognize that no, no, I didn’t hurt Macbeth, I loved him, I didn’t hurt him, I don’t want to hurt you either, please like me, please want me. And Inna, usually so chill and sweet, is completely blindsided with rage and hatred. He needs someone to point the finger at for what happened, because there’s just… no other way to rationalize it. All of it.

Anyway Yael vs Inna watch Yael get brutally murdered as Inna unleashes his inner alpha on 4k Ultra HD LIVE (/j) (unless…?)
