I like totally forgot I made this thing and decided well fuck it, let's revamp it! I decided to change a few things about the initial version I had thought up so hopefully this is better :]!!
So, the gang is still board games in the Bennett household, and all the games are stacked in the living room closet. Fridays, this can happen from every Friday to only one Friday a month, the board games have their Game Night! Game Night is when all the board games hang out with one another! This ranges from two checker pieces talking on the closet shelf to pieces from Sorry! playing Monopoly after a round of Jenga.
When a piece travels to another game, they're instantly dropped into that world! From boards like Clue or Monopoly, the place becomes a mansion or city the pieces can walk through!
Each board game has a personification of themselves in the game. The personification can come from a playable piece to a card. That piece is quoted as the "heart" of the game. Once that piece is destroyed or lost, the personification and the fun disappears.
The personification's personalities help shape the game greatly. This is why two people who have played the same game, might play it differently. These personifications have their own special ways they like people playing their game! Reading the rules will show the human how to "properly" play it, but the more the game is played, the more its personality is shined through the gameplay.
Facts about the Big Four + art :D
Rapunzel (Candyland):
The Candy QueenTM, but even as royalty, the blonde is a giant dork and quite down to earth. When people meet her, they’re usually surprised she’s the queen of the entire kingdom when she’s not as stiff as one imagines.
She's the second oldest game in the closet. She and Hiccup have a deep bond that no one understands as the two had to deal with a lot before the others came. While everyone sees Rapunzel as this effortlessly cherry and bubbly character, Hiccup has seen her through her roughest days. The blonde was never the first queen of Candyland even if everyone else thinks she is, and plans to keep it that way.
For fun, Rapunzel handmade each of her citizen's outfits. She says it’s a stress reliever and a small gift to her loyal citizens. However, the queen is usually never wearing shoes! She’s tried them before but has sworn off them. Rapunzel claims they’re too restrictive and she wants to live a free life!
Since her game is hardly as stressful as the others, Rapunzel doesn’t have to worry about too many guests coming in and out of her kingdom! This lets the blonde hang out with her friends during Game Night worry-free. Until the after party that is…
Her best friend is Merida! The two had a rocky start, but Rapunzel's nice and caring attitude crumbled Merida's walls. Thanks to this, Merida is usually the guinea pig of Rapunzel's newest dessert recipes and outfits.
After game nights, the blonde invites everyone to her game to have a grand feast! Even though the food mostly ranges from hard candies to soft ice cream, everyone adores Rapunzel's food
Merdia (Exploding Kittens):
Merida was the newest board game to come to the house. It was a rocky first start as half the games avoided the redhead. After she met Rapunzel, Jack, and Hiccup, everything went much smoother for her. She's a lot softer with the three than anyone else, even though they don't see it themselves.
The redhead is the most competitive person in the closet. She turns almost anything into a game to be won, even though there’s rarely a prize attached to it. Each competition gets her blood pumping, stating that even if they’re stupid games, she’ll make sure to make it the most fun she’ll ever have! Believe it!
She probably has the strangest appearance out of the lot, with cat ears and tail to match. Jack asked once if she had whiskers, and he immediately got decked for it. Though Merida isn’t ashamed of how she looks, she takes great pride in the fact, the redhead hates embarrassing questions asked by a white boy
Because of her explosive game, Merida is usually seen with all sorts of injuries. This can range from burnt hair and a tiny scar to a broken leg! While the redhead knows how to care for herself as she’s proficient in treating burnt scars, no one is surprised when they see Merida as the newest patient at Operation. Thankfully, whenever her injuries are serious, one or all of Merida’s friends are with her!!!
No one knows, but Merida wasn't a store-bought game. The Bennetts found her game during a yard sale in almost perfect condition. While this is not a new phenomenon, the redhead didn't want to be treated differently, so, kept it to herself. Yard sale games are usually found with missing pieces, ripped or damaged cards, and their box is torn, meaning others tread lightly around them, as they don't have a long stay before getting thrown in the trash or sold again.
Hiccup (Chess):
Hiccup is the oldest game out of the bunch. While Rapunzel is a close second, the brunette is technically the first to be placed in the closet. Hiccup jokes about this as he’s the king piece of his own game, so it’s as if he’s the ruler of his own game and the others. Though with the brunette's more awkward attitude, no one takes him too seriously.
Like his best friend Jack, his appearance changes. This only happens when he’s in a game, however. Depending on his side, Hiccup will change from the white to the black king through a coin toss. On Game Nights, Hiccup’s outfit combines both sides, though the brunette is often never seen wearing his crown.
To most people’s surprise, Hiccup is the person who’s playing his game the LEAST. The king explained that since his game is only two players, he misses opportunities to play with all his friends. Thankfully, recently Hiccup figured out he could make multiple people play his games by switching out pieces for his friends. The brunette has been playing his game much more after that discovery
Once Sophie accidentally dropped the king piece, breaking the cross. Thankfully, the family instantly prepared him with some hot glue, Hiccup lost his leg that day. On the next Game Night, Rapunzel surprised him with a peppermint replacement! He still tries to make it up to her.
Jack (UNO):
Jack Frost is known as the most social, and annoying, game of the lot. Everyone knows his name and his game. It’s hard not to when he’s the most popular game in the closet. The white-haired guy soaked in all the attention, but his favorite days are when it’s just him and his best friends.
Like his colorful game, the man can change his appearance on a whim. Each Game Night the man is wearing a different outfit or rocking out a different hair color. Though this is limited to his eyes and hair, Jack takes this and runs with it. Though, his favorite colors are his white hair and blue eyes.
His best friend is Hiccup. One glance at the two would clearly show that they’re polar opposites! There was no way they were friends, let alone could be in the same game together! Yet most failed to realize how unhinged the chess king was, and the two got along well—besides the exceptions of chaos.
Even though Jack was already competitive, a certain redhead made Game Night for him. He wasn’t sure how, maybe it was her passion or stupid competition she makes, but Jack always competed right beside her. The two of them now have a tally of how many competitions each has won. Jack barely remembers what life was like before Merida, and he plans to keep it that way

me and my friends are having a game night tonight
that got me thinking Les Amis game night
courf always suggests spin the bottle
enjolras *hates* that he's good at monopoly
bahorel and eponine are the people who have flipped the monopoly board the most
gavroche is nearly always banker and gets incredibly into the roll (jehan has many top hats and you beassured they are used for monopoly)
when playing charades or pictionary the triviumate can not team up (they can read eachothers minds)
this also means that jbm can not team up either for the same reason
and Marius and combeferre can't team up or there will be a murder and ferre is not the one who will be dying this time
the board game operation terrifies joly they've all agreed not to play it
cosette likes cluedo a little too much to the point it kinda scares people
combeferre is shit at trivial pursuit unless it's about something of his interest Vs grantaire is incredible at it
feuilly mainly attends the games night for the food and the 'good' vibes and the company poor man needs a break
twister is chaos and bossuet broke his arm and managed to break enjolras nose (again)

It's always "childhood friends because Atem moved to Japan as a kid" and never "childhood friends because Yugi went to a dig in Egypt with his grandpa and met Atem in the streets of Cairo." Give me Atem and Yugi penpal friendship because Sugoroku knows Atem's family from his archeologist circles. Give me Yugi being interested in mythology because he's a goth nerd and we all were and Atem trying to impress him with stories about the gods but he keeps getting shit wrong because he just never payed much attention to it before
Give me Atem teaching Yugi how to play some of the local games and Yugi thinking he's the coolest person ever. Give me Yugi being friends with Mana and Mahaad because of Atem and all of them going on little adventures together. Ya know

Are you, are you, comin' to the tree? Where they strung up a man, they say, who murdered three. Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be, if we met at midnight in the hanging tree…

Are you, are you, comin' to the tree? Where the dead man called out for his love to flee. Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be, if we met at midnight in the hanging tree…
(Thank you to @sidraofthewildflowers for plaguing me with this idea. The movie was bomb we need to see it again!)

Sweet Suitors AU Rewrites - Legendary
Rewriting Wisdom Saga songs to fit a universe similar to one in that 'Hold The Down' parody! Basically an AU where Antonius and the other suitors are actually really nice, but Tele is having trouble trusting them since they want to marry his Mom
Starting of with the second half of Legendary!
Telemachus:
There are strangers in our halls Trying to win the heart of my mom But she is standing tall 108 old faces of men who want my favour They keep taking space and I'm not sure how I feel about them all
Cause they' try to be kind to me, encourage me too But I don't want them to take your place when I don't even know you Somebody help me, come aid me in my choice Should I give my worries and doubts about these men a voice? If not, then
Give me sirens and a cyclops Give me giants and a hydra I know life and fate are scary But I wanna be legendary I'll fight the harpies and chimeras The Minotaur, even Cerberus I know life and fate are scary But I wanna be legendary
Suitors: Where is he? Where is the man who'll have her to wife? Oh Where is he? Where is the man with whom she'll spend your life? Cause it's been 20 years
Telemachus:
20 years
Suitors: And we still have no king
Telemachus: Give me a chance, a single opportunity and I'll be the man I know you'd want me to be and-
Antinous: Boy Can you tell us what your mother's favourite board game is?
Suitors: Oh
Antinous: Why don't you open her room so we can have fun with her?
Telemachus: She'll win anyways, so there's no point in that
Suitors: Oh
Antinous: I guessed that Wanna play instead with us, champ?
Telemachus: Somebody tell me Come and give me a sign If I let myself trust him Would that be alright?

The Batfam and team Phantom are both notorious for being very competitive at board games.
Someone should’ve mentioned this beforehand.
No one did though.
And now marks four hours of a game of your choice.
Love is played with, hearts are broken, and Damian is very interested in whatever knife monopoly is.

after averys mum died she wanted to work as hard as possible to make her proud.
avery worked her ass off in school and it paid off, she got a full scholarship to a prestigious boarding school
When she arrived at the school, the head boy (grayson) was waiting to tour her
because he’s an arrogant asshole he’s immediately suspicious of her
on there tour of the science labs, she met xander, in the middle of him exploding some chemicals or smth
grayson introduces xander as his littlest brother, this is when Grayson has four brothers, one of which graduated a while ago
they finish up there tour and the headmaster gives Avery her timetable and dorm number.
On her way to her dorm, she takes it upon herself to do some more exploring
she visits the biggest of many libraries at the school, its probably bigger than the whole of her old school.
As she wanders the halls of the library she can feel someone’s eyes on her the whole time.
eventually she looks up to the second story of the library, and locks eye contact with Jameson Hawthorne
he jumps from the second floor onto the first and walks towards her
“so….your the new girl, my brother bets you won’t last a day here, but I give you at least a week.”
Avery mainly ignored him, she new she wouldn’t fit in from the minute she stepped foot on the grounds.
When she got back to her door she found a plate of scones and a note, welcome to heights country day!! - the living breathing, rube goldberg machine aka. Xander hawthorne
how he found her room number, she’ll never know.
a quick google search reveals that the Hawthornes were actually the grandsons of one of the richest men in America, Tobias Hawthorne.
-.-
I am actually planning to turn this into a series so let me know if you like it <3

Have you ever asked yourself what a book for tourist traveling to Westeros would look like ? Well, my intrusive thoughts and lack of sleep helped me come up with this idea. It's just the first part of 9 I'll do one for each region of the land of Westeros, but I already have plan to do it to the region's of Westeros too. I based myself not just on the cultures of the real world but also Westeros, and what they would look like in a modern setting, so yeah enjoy my crazy shit because I sure did when I woke up today and decided to do this.
VALE. RIVERLANDS. WESTERLANDS. REACH. STORMLANDS. CROWNLANDS. IRON ISLANDS. DORNE.

Saw your tags and YES OFC. I love your art style, and im honored you made the choice to follow me. I was SHOCKED
Thank you!!! I really love the ideas you’re playing with and I’m looking forward to seeing where you take them!
Regarding my own ideas … y’know how I said I’ve already got a number of Four Swords AUs projects to complete and that this would be something to get around to eventually? Well, my brain decided to ignore all of those:
Tumblr media
For those not in the know, demon-nayra shared an awesome idea earlier this week that essentially boils down to Vio, Red, and Blue being directly tied to the Four Sword and being the same characters in both Four Swords games (this is demon-nayra’s original post about it). My brain grabbed the idea with both hands and ran head-first into another AU, which I’m going to call ��Goddesses AU”.
In the Goddess AU, Green is Link, Hylia’s chosen hero. Vio, Red, and Blue’s spirits have been tied to the Four Sword by the Golden Three, so when the Four Sword is drawn, they’re released to assist Hylia’s chosen hero. Each of them is tied to one of the Golden Goddesses: Vio to Farore; Red to Din; and Blue to Nayru (I recognise the irony of Blue being tied to the Goddess of Wisdom, but I think it’s really, really funny). Whether they were created by the Goddesses or whether they were regular Hylians once is unknown—all they know is that when they defeat Vaati for good, they’ll be released to live out the rest of their lives like regular Hylians.
Back during FS (as opposed to FSA), they assumed they would be released once this particular adventure was completed, and were making preparations accordingly—Vio was setting up to study and research, while Red got engaged. Blue didn’t have any particular plans, but would have been happy to travel. An amount of their character development happens during this adventure. At the end, however, instead of being released, they were locked back into the Four Sword again.
When FSA occurs, they’ve been locked in the Four Sword for centuries, but for them it’s only been the blink of an eye. They emerge, and at first they mistake the new hero for the previous Green. Then they realise what’s happened. Red especially is deeply distraught—not at anyone in particular, but grieves losing a person he loved and had prepared to spend the rest of his life with. Vio and Blue both get a bit protective of him, in their own ways: Vio tries to distract him, while Blue tries to fend off anyone or anything that might hurt him further (physically AND emotionally) and argues with the Goddesses. The new hero (who gains the name Green) has no idea what’s going on and tries to get everyone to focus on the task at hand.
Idk how much of this I’ll write, but I had a lot of fun redesigning the characters! (Not convinced by Vio though …) Regarding the designs, I drew inspiration from Din and Nayru in the Oracle games for Red and Blue. I really like the parallel of the Goddesses having stand-ins in at least two of the timelines, so using concepts and symbols from Din and Nayru’s designs felt like a good approach. I’m also very tempted to say that Red’s a good dancer and that Blue plays the harp (when nobody is listening, of course).

I think this image is self explanatory ;b
Fun fact! Out of the twins, I head cannon Llydia to be the more competitive of the two. Llyria would much rather watch and judge her sister than waste energy on being competitive.
