[agalychnisspranneusroseus]

I know the usual role swap AU has Marcy in Wartwood, Anne in Toad Tower and Sasha in Newtopia but I think it's be hilarious to see Sasha in Wartwood, Marcy in Toad Tower and Anne in Newtopia.

Andrias encourages Anne's worst vices, her selfishness and laziness. He just gives her a room and infinite money and lets her do whatever she wants, facing no consequences for her actions whatsoever because all Andrias cares about is using her as bait for her two more competente friends to come looking for. Only thing in her favor is that she DOES have the Calamity Box, which she gives to Andrias without question as soon as he promises to send her back home. Problem is that it's uncharged, and Anne at this point is too useless to do anything about it, so he, alongside Lady Olivia, have to keep up with this spoiled brat, forcing fake smiles and praying that her friends show up soon. He even sends Yunnan to go find them, because this weird annoying alien kid is causing disasters in the city every two days and all Andrias can think about is "jeez now I remember why I never had children".

Marcy in Toad Tower has a very Entrapta-Hordak kind of relationship with Grime (without the romance) in the sense that she's too enthralled by the wonders of Amphibia to be scared. She might not have the social abilities Sasha has but she DOES have an extensive knowledge of Age of Empires types of games, her strategies are UNMATCHED. While she is terrified during the first two weeks, while she's locked in a cell (this is NOT what her isekai fantasy looked like in her head), she soon proves her usefulness when she yells strategic advice from behind bars, demanding to be let out because she NEEDS to be in that war meeting! That strategy won't work! She saw it in an a dozen different animes, she knows how this ends! Though she's not very aware of the brutal reality of Toad Tower - she really just thinks she ended up with a cool warrior order she's helping defeat their enemies.

But Sasha in Wartwood takes the cake. If she ends up with the Plantars like Anne, she's an absolute menace for Sprig and Polly because she's one hell of a bad influence. Hop Pop takes it as a challenge - he thinks she wants to force him to kick her out, and he won't give her what she wants! Plus he's very aware of the ways in which she tries to manipulate his grandchildren and he won't allow it! Every time she gets them in trouble on purpose she has to do a full day of farm work, or to clean Bessie's stables. It's his way of telling her he can see straight through her bullshit and he won't tolerate it. If she wants to turn his kids into little delinquents she will have to get through him first! She probably becomes closer to Polly than Sprig, Sprig being a bit too much of a goody two shoes to follow half of her plans, while Polly is a natural troublemaker that joins in to whatever mischief Sasha comes up with. Though seeing Polly, a small child, continue to get in trouble and suffer the consequences for Sasha's actions, kind of triggers her more protective insticts. The moment Hop Pop realized she was making progress was when he saw her admit, in front of the whole town, that she was responsible for whatever trouble they had earlier, and she only did that because she felt responsible for Polly.

Btw she gets sooooo irrationally mad when Hop Pop gets a girlfriend and encourages Sprig's frustration, whispering like a devil in his ear that this is how it starts: first he gets a girlfriend, then you stop being his priority and suddenly he has new kids and a new family and you're not part of it. Trust me, buddy, single dads getting girlfriends is bad news. We should push her into the river!

Though I do wonder if it'd be even funnier if she ended up with someone you would never expect, like Mrs. Croaker. This old woman has her clean and cook for her all day long while complaining that she's doing everything wrong but she's the only person in town who lets her crash in her couch so it's her fucking snow white arc or getting eaten by a giant mantis.

As expected, Toad Tower and Newtopia makes the girls worse while Wartwood makes them better. While Marcy is kept in the dark and used for her intelligence to commit war crimes and Anne is allowed to be even more selfish and useless, Sasha becomes incredibly protective of her new family and this little town that suddenly looks to her to keep them safe and provide.

[ultrawesmess]

Amphibia AU where Anne notices Andrias attempting to attack Marcy, her powers flare back up long enough her to push Marcy out of the way and into the portal, taking the blow for her while Marcy and the Plantars are warped back to Los Angeles.

• Before the portal warps Marcy back instead of the "I-I'm sorry... for everything." that Marcy gives, Anne tries to comfort Marcy, saying "D-Don't worry, M-Mar-Mar... I probably w-would have done the s-same if I had to be separated from y-y-you and Sash...".

• While back in Willow Brooke, Marcy can't bare to confront her parents so she decides to stay with the Boonchuys. Obviously, after she explains why she ran away and her need to get everyone back home, they let her and the Plantars stay as long as they need. Marcy tells them about Amphibia but, like Anne, leaves out the parts about the evil king....... and the fact that she saw their daughter get stabbed through the torso and possibly die... instead she lies that Anne is still perfectly fine back in Wartwood.

• Marcy is more angsty about this whole thing than Anne appeared to be in canon. Made even worse by the fact that every time she sees the people she now lives with, she is reminded that her cowardice cost them the most important person in their families. She also finds being the only one of her friends to make it back to the place that she tried so hard to run away from as a form of twisted irony. A cosmic punishment for tampering with a mystical artifact that was far beyond her understanding, leading to her friends and their loved ones paying the price for it.

•A lot of the same plot beats still happen such as Fight at the Museum, Fixing Frobo, If You Give A Frog A Cookie, and Mr. X but episodes such as Thai Feud and Temple Frogs don't due to Marcy obviously not having the same familial bonds as Anne and Adventures in Catsitting due to The Boonchuys being unable to schedule a dentist's appointment for a child that is not under their legal guardianship.

• Marcy wears her blue Newtopian cloak even with her casual clothing just in case she sees her parents and needs to hide her face from them under her hood so they don't recognize her. (There is a running gag through season 3 where she has to make sure she doesn't stand under any sprinklers in case her cloak spontaneously combusts.)

• Back in Amphibia, The Core, now no longer having Marcy, decides to take Anne. Now calling themself Dianne, they use Anne not for her mind... but instead for her power and to use it for it's namesake.............. to bring about Calamity.

• Andrias still sends out the Assassin bot to Willow Brooke to kill Marcy and the Plantars in order to tie up any loose ends in his plans.

• Marcy's Calamity powers awaken while protecting the Plantars in the Supermarket and finds that her powers allow her to use magic though the use of any staff-like object. In this case, a metal pipe in the storage freezer that she was going to use to bash in the robot's head, and summons a blast of energy that sends the Assassin bot packing. Marcy later buys a foldable walking staff from a drug store and carries it around in her satchel in case of "Magical Girl emergencies" as she calls them. (Her powers are an homage to Matt's original idea for Marcy to be a sorceress.)

• In this version of Anne-sterminator, it's laundry day and since Marcy can't go back to her house to grab clean clothes, she has to wear some of Anne's, namely her iconic St. James Middle School uniform. When the Assassin bot comes to kill Marcy, it sees Marcy in Anne's clothes and gets confused allowing everyone time to escape. In the junkyard, Marcy whips out her staff and uses her Calamity powers to cast an Anti-gravity spell on the Assassin bot, launching it into orbit where it's bomb detonates. Marcy finally has to come clean about Andrias and what happened to Anne. While the Boonchuys are devastated about Anne, they know that Anne would have wanted to get the Plantars and Sasha back home and use that as motivation to keep going.

• While in The Core, Anne's Fantasy world is one where Amphibia and Earth are merged into one. (A tongue in cheek mocking of Star vs' ending) She gets sus when she notices everyone acting off. When Anne calls bull on the whole thing, The Core leaves her in the darkness with only the light of her phone containing her real memories to keep her company.

• During The Core's invasion, Dianne uses Anne's Calamity powers in their fight against Sasha making it far more of a brutal beat-down than a proper 1v1. When Grime sacrifices himself, it causes Sasha's Calamity powers to awaken, making it a fair fight.

• While battling Andrias, when Marcy starts running low on Calamity juice, Andrias starts mocking her. Telling her that "If she wants to, he'll gladly let her use the music box to take her to another world where she can run away from her problems.... again." and this, along with the Boonchuys playing "As If It's Your Last" by Blackpink over the city's loudspeakers to remind Marcy that she's doing all this for Anne leads to an epic tear filled "I'm... Done... Running..." as she twirls her staff around, her powers flare back up, and she gets her second wind.

[timbercat101]

These are some old designs from a year ago for my Au call the corruption of amphibia. I made this au back in 2020 but ditch it after awhile.

Description:

It all began from True Colours. With the box destroyed during Anne's and Andreas's fight, it unleashed the gems power to the Calamity trio as they were linked to the gems. Their bodies became corrupted from the sheer power they received in that instant, insighting a war shortly after.

Five years later and the trio have seperated, but remained trapped in Amphibia. Marcy is left alone in hiding after the deaths of Olivia and Yunnan, but learned how to use the dark arts and fight in close combat. Marcy regrets everything, feeling guilty for everything that happened as she was the reason for everyone being trapped in Amphibia. Her priority is to get herself and her friends back to Earth and does all she can, even if it will take many more years to do so.

Sasha is fighting alongside Grime in the Great Amphibian War, often using her time to reflect on how she treated her friends during those five years. She feels horrible that she mistreated her friends in the past, but understands that too much of time has passed to do anything even if she still cares about them.

After the beginning of the war, Anne and the Planters returned back to Wartwood. They had to retreat underground in order to keep them and the rest of the town safe. Anne was not the same after her return, unable to comprehend that her closest friends betrayed her, both of them on the same day... And it fucked her up... a lot...

[wren-writes-things]

Let's see... 1, 9, 12, 13 for the fandom ask games? :)

Oh hey Pixel! Thanks for asking.

OTP? 

Probably Sasharcy (of course in the context of Sashannarcy). I absolutely adore all variants of the Calamity Trio but I just tend to drift towards them. My guess is that the personality contrast, and possibly just how much they both need to grow and forgive each other. I don't know it just intrigues me.

I also really like platonic Zelink from the BotW/TotK iteration.

9. Write a recommendation of someone else's fic you enjoyed!

Hmm... Pixel go read your own fanfic! Joking, probably

And I Know I Kissed You Before (But I Didn't Do It Right) - BearerOfTheBitterMoon (liminal-lesbian on here) - Okay I could put all of Mara's fanfics on here. Her writing style and story concepts are just amazing. But we'd be here all day, so we're not going to do that. This one specifically though, was just such an emotional rollercoaster (without leaving with permanent emotional trauma, ex: The Three Body Problem). It's very sweet, it's very sad and it all just feels so real. If that makes any sense

A Witch In Wartwood - Disect - I haven't finished the sequel fanfic yet, but I love this story. It had a very creative take on a Swap AU, and it did a really good job at capturing the essence of the original show while also completely being it's own thing.

Pinpoint - i'm-at-my-limit - Okay, I need to get caught up on this one, because I love the concept and I find it's characterization really interesting but I'm also behind by like two chapters because I wasn't reading as much for a while.

Across The Seven Seas - Heart_Wit_Strength - Did I successfully trick you into thinking I wasn't going to say this? Did it work? Seriously though this is one of those fanfics that I read, immediately reread and proceeded to think about for the next three days. I actually have fan art of it that I need to complete some day. I don't know what you did, but you succeeded at it.

Then there's this one fanfic about Sasha that I really like, but I cannot find it or remember what it is called.

(I have quite a few others that I really liked, these are just the four that were in my brain apparently)

12. What's the funniest or craziest AU idea you've ever come up with?

So the same week that I created Daren, I also created what I call that Devil in the Details AU. Which is one of those AUs where it could be angsty, but I decided it was way funnier to write absurd shenanigans.

Basically Marcy, a lonely and aimless college student, opens a music box (gifted to her by her academic mentor, Andrias) and ends up with Darcy as the devil on her shoulder. Then Anne and Sasha are sent by heaven to prevent her from becoming corrupted and taken over by them.  

Of course, it’s a massive train wreck. 

Darcy is trying to convince Marcy that she should trust them. But because Sasha and Anne are almost always there they can only accomplish this through underhanded life coaching. (Though when Sasha and Anne aren��t there it’s manipulation is more direct).

Sasha is a nearly fallen angel who has taken to giving beneficial but selfish advice and also physically attacking any devils that she ends up paired with. 

Anne is just trying to get Sasha back on the right path and to find a way to get rid of Darcy so Marcy can go back to a normal life.

Then Marcy who was incredibly lonely finally has a social life and people that she can get engaged in her interests. So she’s convinced this is a great thing and is scheming to make it permanent. 

And from this queue all of the comedic shenanigans that could possibly come out of it. But also Anne and Sasha helping guide Marcy into making a life for herself that she really wants rather than what everyone kept telling her she wanted. While Darcy of course tries to counteract that because they assume she searching for a very specific type of success and do not understand any other idea.

13. What's a character or ship you haven't written/drawn yet but would like to some day?

So ironically the answer here is also Sasharcy. I’m not sure how this happened but we have two Sashanne centric AUs (TOH and BotW) and two Marcanne centric ones (Witch Marcy and also BotW). But none of them have focused on Sasha and Marcy specifically (aside from post breakup in the Witch Marcy AU). It's a really interesting occurrence

[miqotepotatoe]

Okay so basis of this Ninjago Amphibia crossover swap AU, the plot loosly follows the plot of Amphibia but with the Dumbass Trio in the place of the Calamity Girls. The Calamity Box was a relic in the Explorer's Club that a theif tried to steal before the Ninja stopped them. Lloyd told everyone not to touch the box but Jay got really curious, convincing Kai and Cole to take a look with him in the dead of night. No malicious intentions, just idiotic curiousity.

Cole replaces Anne, he gets zapped to Frog Valley and is taken in by the Plantars, quickly gains Wartwood's trust by defending them against the tax collector toads. He spends most of his time there aiding the townsfolk fighting off beasts while trying to figure out how to make the Calamity Box work again. The overprotective big brother to Sprig and Polly, still gets dragged into their hyjinks. Has accidently called Hop-Pop "gramps" a few times.

Kai replaces Sasha, gets zapped to Toad Tower, puts up a fight against the toads but is quickly overwhelmed and taken prisoner. Grime recognises that Kai is a powerful fighter and offers a deal, aid the toads and Grime will help Kai find his friends. Kai reluctently accepts the deal, just wanting to find Cole and Jay and return to Ninjago. He's more of a common footsoldier then a lieutenant.

Jay replaces Marcy, gets zapped to Newtopia, panics cuz he's no longer in Ninjago (causing him to fall down a flight of stairs and breaking his leg), meets Lady Olivia and Andrias and joins the Night Guard so he can venture out to find Cole and Kai. He has fun going out on adventures, but he can't help but worry about his friends and the others still in Ninjago. He vents out his worries and insecurities to Andrias over a game of Flipwart (Jay lost, but Andrias got blackmail materiel on the boy to use for emotional manipulation, sadly it still doesn't change what the Core has in store for him).

Season 1

- Plays out pretty much the same, Cole and the Plantars have various wacky adventures as he tries to find Kai and Jay and figure out how to get home.

- Kai is released earlier due to the deal he and Grime made, the herons that attack Toad Tower are scared away imedietly by Kai's fire. Grime is impressed, but both are using each other as a means to an end. Grime wants to use Kai to keep the frogs under check, Kai wants to find Cole and Jay and go home.

- Toad Tax happens. Cole imedietly notices the toad tax collectors are simply just stealing from the frogs so he fights them back. His eyes also flash blue for a moment. The tax collectors flee to Toad Tower and inform Grime of the situation. Grime plans on sending the entire army at the tower to Wartwood to teach the frogs a lesson, but Kai overhears and volunteirs to give the frogs a warning message.

- Cole and Kai reunite. Kai warns Cole about Grime and the Toads and the boys stage a plan to teach the toads a lesson on why you don't mess with the ninja. Kai returns to Toad Tower and tells Grime of a plan to "execute" Hop-Pop as his recent campaign against Toadstool has begun inspiring frogs to rise up, and executing the face of frog revolution will teach them a lesson.

- The events of Reunion stay mostly the same. The toads invite all of Wartwood to Toad Tower for a "peaceful celebration" to exectute Hop-Pop, meanwhile the boys begin to put their plan into motion. Kai stops Grime from exectuting Hop-Pop (ELEMENT OF SURPRISE!), and the big final fight is Cole & Kai vs Grime.

- The boys have Grime cornered, but just as he's about to admit defeat Toad Tower begins to explode and crumble due to Wally planting boom-shrooms. One explosion knocks Kai over the edge, Cole tries to pull him up but the ground beneath him is crumbling. Kai lets go of Cole's hand in an attempt to sacrifice himself so his friend can survive and find Jay, but Grime catches Kai midfall. The toads retreat into the woods, Kai once again their prisoner.

Season 2

- Cole and the Plantars leave to Newtopia to see if the newts know anything on how to get Cole home to Ninjago. When they arrive at the capitol city, they are attacked by barbariants, but are saved by Jay. They have an emotional reunion, drive out the barbariants and Jay takes them into Newtopia. Cole tells Jay about how he found Kai but the toads took him away so who knows where he is. Jay is releived to learn Kai is alright.

- The next day Jay introduces Cole and the Plantars to King Andrias. They talk the music box, Andrias suggests that Cole and the Plantars explore the city while he and Jay do some reaserch on the Calamity Box.

- Cole and Sprig bond over dead moms.

- Durring his research, Jay discovers some stuff about overworldy creatures and the prophecy surrounding the stones in the box. He decides to keep this to himself, thinking it to be seemingly unimportant. Little does he know, the Core is watching.

- Meanwhile Kai is being an absolute menace to Grime, and has driven away almost the entriety of the Toad Tower troops. Yunan eventually tracks them down as Grime is wanted by Newtopia due to what happened at Toad Tower. Kai initially uses this oppertunity to escape, but goes back to save Grime cuz ninja honor. Reveling in the victory, Grime begins to build a new toad army to take over Newtopia, Kai only helping so he can find away back to Ninjago.

- Andrias and Jay learn about how to recharge the stones using the three temples. The Plantars decide to return to Wartwood to get the music box from Hop-Pop's "scholarly contact," but Cole decides to go with them. While Jay is upset he understands the fondness his friend has for his frog found family and allows it.

- Durring his preperations for the temple quests, Jay discovers some more stuff about the box, what it does and what the ancient newts did. Jay is horrified at the aspect that Ninjago could be invaded if they charged the box. The Core threatens Andrias to deal with Jay before he learns too much, so Andrias lies to Jay saying that the newts have moved on from their conqureing lifestyle. Jay is willing to trust Andrias as he's been nothing but honest and kind to him, but he still has a little cautious suspision.

- The temple arc plays out the same, Jay charges the green stone of Wit, Cole partially charges the blue stone of Heart, Kai reunites with the boys and charges the pink stone of Strength.

- After the boys spend some time together, they head to Newtopia to return home. But then the toad rebellion happens and everyone tries to stop it, except Jay. Jay tries to stop Cole from closing the gates, trying to warn his friend about what the ancient newts did and his fears that Andrias might try to invade Ninjago, but Cole insists that Jay is just being paranoid and panicy as he usually is. This results in a fight that Cole wins.

- Andrias reveals his true colours and his plans to invade and conqure Ninjago. The three ninja fight him off and his frobots, but he drops Sprig out to his supposed death which causes Cole to fully resonate with the blue stone and unlock his Cole-amity Powers (I'm sorry for the awful pun), mixed in with his earth element abilities and Andrias gets destroyed, but Cole passes out. Jay manages to save Sprig and opens a portal back to Ninjago, Kai and Grime try to hold Andrias back, Cole and the Plantars make it to the portal, but Jay is impailed by Andiras's giant flaming sword. Everything is white and Cole finds himself in the monastery's courtyard with the Plantars, but no Calamity Box, no Kai or Jay

Season 3

- Lloyd, Zane, Nya, Wu and Pixal have an emotional reunion with Cole, and ask questions about what happened, where are Kai and Jay, who're the giant talking frogs? Cole tells them everything, about Amphibia, Andrias, the strange powers, what happened to Jay. After hearing his story, everyone at the monastery is determinded to figure out a way back to Amphiba so they can stop Andrias, get Kai and Jay back and return the Plantars home. Until then the frog family stays at the monastery.

- Back in Amphibia, Kai and Grime managed to escape Newtopia and flee to Wartwood. They unite together the people of the valley into a resistance, using Wartwood as a base.

- Jay is placed in a rejuvination tank to recover from his wound. Andrias sends out a cloakbot to hunt down Cole, but it was extremly unprepared for the full might of the ninja. Olivia and Yunan try to rescue Jay, but fail. The Core reveals itself and intends to make Jay it's host. While it would've prefered someone who could beat Andrias at flipwart, Jay was good enough to do. And thus "Day" is born (a stupid name but it's just like how Darcy was named, being a combo of "Dark Jay")

- After a lot of time and effort, the ninja make a portal back to Amphibia using a mix of highly potent Traveller's Tea and Cole's Calamity Powers. Nya insists on joining Cole and the Plantars back to Amphibia because she isn't going to stand by while her brother and boyfriend are still stuck in this world while a giant newt is preparing to conqure Ninjago. And so Cole, Nya and the Plantars return to Amphibia while Lloyd, Zane, Pixal and Wu make preparations to defend Ninjago for when Andrias invades.

- Emotional Smith sibling reunion, Kai introduces them to the Resistance and inform them that Jay is alive but taken prisoner. The Resistance increase their numbers while the ninja and Plantars go to learn of the stone's prophecy from Mother Olm (Nya is a little jelous that the boys get cool anime powers).

- Final battle time. Pt1, Begining of the End. Basing their plan on a Fritz Donigan movie, the Resistance fight off the frobot army and Andrias while Cole, Kai, Nya, the Plantars and Grime sneak into the castle to get the Calamity Box and rescue Jay. One Lava vs Yulivia dance fight later and they make it to the box, but it's a trap and everyone is captured by Day. Day calls the ninja out on how they've treated Jay; calling him expendable, the least valuble ninja, not taking his fears and worries seriously. Once the Resistance flees upon seeing their leaders captured the invasion of Ninjago begins.

- Pt2, All In. Lloyd has gathered an army of friends and foes to defend Ninjago from the overworldy invading forces. The Amphibia team manage to escape the castle, regroup with the rest of the ninja and make a plan to stop the invasion. Kai, Nya and Grime disable the sheild surrounding the castle while everyone else fights off the frobots. Andrias challenges Cole to a fight to decide the fate of Ninjago, while Kai and Nya fight Day (Grime distracting some frobots). Durring the fight, Nya protects Kai from a lethal blow, resulting in her getting "dis-armed." The two fights play off the same as normal, Cole being reinvigorated with rock instead of k-pop, Sprig bringing Andrias to his senses with Leif's letter, Day getting distracted by controlling Andrias allowing Kai to free Jay from the hivemind by cutting the helmet's cord.

- Speaking of Jay, the Core tries to lull him into staying with a world akin to Prime Empire and fake versions of the ninja. Eventually Jay sees through the Core's lies and stands up to it. He is able to be saved before the Core could fully assimilate him. Emotional reunion between the dumbass trio.

- Pt3, The Hardest Thing. The boys return to Amphibia to finish some little things, Nya stays in Ninjago to get her wound checked out. The moon then begins to fall and the boys unlock their true Calamity Forms as they fight off the Core with their calamity and elemental powers, but Kai and Jay quickly begin to tire out as this is they're not used to the powers unlike Cole. Having no other choice, Cole calls upon the powers of all three stones, destroying the Core but dying in the process. He then meets the stones creator who offers him a chance to become guardian of the multiverse, which he declines. The guardian brings Cole back to life and the boys say their goodbyes to Amphibia, returning to Ninjago at long last.

- All six ninja finally reunite. Jay builds Nya a cool robo prostetic, feeling guilty about being the one to cause her to loose an arm but Nya reassures him it wasn't his fault, it was Core. Cole talks to Lloyd about the whole dying and meeting the stones creators and them offering him the oppertunity to become guardian of the multiverse, to which Lloyd gets some de ja vu from the time he died after stopping the oni, meeting the FSM and getting offered a chance to join him. Zane makes records on Amphibia based on the stores Kai Jay and Cole have told everyone. Things quickly go back to some form of peacful normal, until another villain decides to attack the city. Just another day in Ninjago as they say

[butchgrantcurly]

ive been rereading A Theory of Butterflies and Other Insects by the lovely @/calamity-unlocked and i caught the swap au brainworms so. heres some rambling about what i think would happen if anne wound up at toad tower (long post warning!!!!)

Anne would likely follow a similar path that Sasha does, but for very different reasons, which is something interesting to think about

Anne would also rise to the top through friendship/compliments, except they are genuine

Anne’s strength is genuine interpersonal relationships, whereas Sasha’s (at least in Prison Break) is manipulation, but they both thrive in this specific situation

It only takes Anne a week or two to befriend almost everyone in the tower, except Grime, who thinks that shes manipulating his guards

“BRADDOCK!  Why is the creature out of her cell?  She’s dangerous!”  “Aww, but boss, she’s teaching us how to paint our nails :(“

Eventually, when Grime is attempting to interrogate her, she spills out everything.  How she blames herself for getting her and her friends trapped here, how if she’d only stood up to Sasha for once and not stolen the box they would still be safe at home, everything.

In Wartwood, she was always occupied going on weekly adventures, but at the Tower, she had a lot of solitary confinement time to reflect and inevitably blame herself for what happened.

Remember, this is early s1 Anne- she is full of self doubt and, as she said herself, does not love herself yet :( so all this spiraling think time is not good for her

This FINALLY gets to Grime.  She starts sobbing and he's like holy shit,, she's not a horrible evil beast, she's just an insecure teenager

He lets her out and she's actually very helpful

She learns to swordfight and is a very loyal soldier.  She’s been a follower her whole life, it comes easy to her

When the herons attack, she rallies the troops and inspires them to fight back, earning her the role as Grime’s lieutenant !!

there will inevitably be more, but i only tackled prison break for now since beyond that she would have to interact with marcy and i havent entirely sorted out marcy in wartwood yet!!

im also very excited to write abt sasha in newtopia... i think she and andrias would hate each other so so much and she wouldn't stop poking around the castle

Edits of the Calamity Trio, Plantars, and concepts for a character from an Amphibia dream I had! Sorry for the one gillion variations of Anne(? Anne's twin?)'s armor, i couldn't remember or decide on a color scheme. Thinking of making an au & oc out of the dream! Anyways, the dream is as follows(edited from my original text dump onto a random doc):

Hop Pop may have been more salmon/reddish, Sprig more melon(crayola)/orangeish, Polly more pink/violet-red(crayola).

There was a medicine frog(consultant on vibes by inherent or potion-enhanced divinity/clairvoyance), she was a squat lilac frog(toad-shaped chin?) who reminded me of Maddie's village/town role had she been grown up at the time of the (actual canon) show. Maybe Maddie was training as a hobby to become one?(Very much something she'd chosen and could back out of at any time, nothing she was pressured into, each frog had their own take on the job, the important part was protecting the village.) Wartwood was more of a village than a town, just a little bigger & more spread out than Ichigo/the tlg boy's village.

I was Anne, but i was like a me version of Anne?, with hella anxiety, wearing a lot more blue than canon Anne, and in possession of my soft pj pants & a soft human-made blanket from earth. Sasha was from Newtopia & wore a swap au(like had she landed in Newtopia) outfit but less shirt-and-skirt under the armor and more dress, kinda cocoon segments of very pale to more saturated pastel coral-y pinks. Marcy wore her same Amphibia outfit as in canon, but w more of a toad touch? That or she was also raised /taken in by newts, just in a more rural area than Sasha.

Marcy and Sasha had come to the village to find either others of their kind(had heard rumors of me/Anne/Anne's twin) or their long lost bff(Anne, which they were hoping it was). It was either a Lost And Found AU situation except we ended up in Amphibia a couple to few years earlier than in canon, or were raised in Amphibia since ending up there as defenseless toddlers.

When they came I was recovering from an anxiety attack and so couldn't reliably evaluate their danger level when they asked to come into & stay at our village to get to know me, so the medicine frog did the danger evaluation instead. I remember being embarrassed that my outfit/clothes were so plain compared to them both, since I only wore my school uniform(how was it still my size?? dream logic?? coincidentally uniform-like outfit custom-made for Anne's twin/me?) and some frog-made(not from Newtopia, but was like a recolor of her canon armor) armor chest piece.

Later, we were at a bar countertop but lower like the ones in haircut places, and Hop Pop let me curl around his feet bc he knew I needed it after my anxiety attack and the stress of meeting new people(let alone those of my own species), and he talked pleasantries & politics with Grimes & Sasha & Marcy while I snuggled in my blanket & soft pj pants under the counter. My sister & brother (Polly & Sprig) were v supportive abt my anxiety, as much as Hop Pop was, even if they didn't quite understand it as much.

[neotriobrainrot-reborn]

got any neo trio au ideas?

Yeah, I might have some!

I already mentioned Amphibia Neapolitan Flavor so many times that'd most would mistaken me for a broken record, but to say it again(and prove that I am a broken record asququq):

Amphibia Neapolitan Flavor

...is an au I'm in the mist of writing where the Neo Trio goes to Amphibia in the Calamity trios place. Phoenica is in Wartwood, Trixie is in Toad Tower, and Molly is in Newtopia. A lot or things will be different since not only is the Neo trio's relationship is fundamentally different from the Calamity trio's relationship, but the characters are all different from each other. Phoenica would mostly likely struggle in different areas compared to Anne and vice versa. And the same would be true for Trixie & Sasha, and Molly & Marcy. Overall, it's something I'm really excited to rewrite it since I made a lot of mistakes with the old fic!

Swap Au

I also made an old post about a swap of Phoenica and Trixie, but I don't remember when I made it. I might do a redo of that au, but essentially, Trixie had a family legacy of Vigilantes that kept the streets of Sweet Jazz City save, and Phoenica’s family focused more on the dark arts of magic.

Kingdom Hearts au

This wasn't long. I only got as far as the concept idea before scrapping it due to me realizing that it would be too many crossovers for me to enjoy writing. The gist was that the Neo Trio got keyblades, and the darkness took over the epithet world.

That's about as much as I could think of on the spot lol

[discet]

In the ‘Anne goes to Amphibia Alone’ AU, what would the calamity gem powers look like? Would Anne hold all of them, or would they be released to the atmosphere or something?

Well it really depends on what kind of story you would want to tell. Both of which are very different

Option 1: Anne holds onto all the Powers I think in this option, the powers are constantly wearing Anne down and figuring out how to offload the powers becomes as much about survival as it is about getting home. Tapping into the powers even a little ends up with scars and cracks. Anne becomes a glass canon protagonist, just trying to keep together. I think the timeline is way less leisurely when Anne's powers destroys a chunk of Wartwood by accident (Happens during Toad tax, no fatalities fortunately). This is probably the one I'd go for in the first ask I got for this AU

Option 2: Power is released into the atmosphere. Here the box basically becomes completely inert. No chance of getting back home (that way anyways). Anne is permanently stuck in Amphibia. This becomes much more of a slice of life story of Anne... adjusting to her circumstances in a way she never had to in canon.

I think there i a bit of a road trip still, trying to find some means of recharging the box, but obviously the energy to do so just isn't there. They leave the box with Andrias to study but he's not going to have any more luck than she did.I'd probably deal with it off screen.

This AU would focus a lot more on Anne and her themes of finding herself and gaining purpose. While her self confidence is a big factor in canon, she was handed purpose for the narrative in being a chosen one and then found lasting purpose off screen during the time skip. She'd have to find that for herself in a strange world, speaking of which-

It would also focus stronger on a theme touched upon in the Christmas episode that Anne's time in Amphibia allowed her to empathize with her parents experiences as immigrants. Unlike Canon in this AU Anne would not have a clear end goal of 'getting back home' to cope with.

It would definitely be a quieter AU no big betrayels. Some fun everyday adventures but no grand destiny. Just... making the most of it.

Concept: Reverse Hemitphibia Au where rather then colliding with the Calamity trio sending the Hermits to Amphibia with them, the collision drags the Calamity Trio (and the box) to the next Hermitcraft world.

The Guardian is panicking big time because it doesn’t know how to get things back on track, and might never get to retire.

The Core and Andrias never get the Calamity box, and just have to cope with never bringing back the Newtopia golden age of the past.

And who knows what’s happening with the trio themselves.

When I first started thinking about the then insane idea of a Hermitcraft-Amphibia crossover AU, the thought of flipping which half served what role (destination-wise) did cross my mind. I settled on what we have now, but the idea of flipping the script's still interesting.

So in a hypothetical Reverse!Hermitphibia AU, the world of Amphibia sees life go on as normal. Uninterrupted by any outside force. Andrias & the Core wait in Newtopia for a prophecy that isn't coming, Grime continues putting the fear into his soldiers at South Tower, & Sprig & Polly grow up & play in Wartwood.

Nothing changes, for better or worse.

The Calamity Trio are having a bad time, however. Stranded in a world even more hostile to the uninitiated than Amphibia - especially when you only have one life - all three girls are separated from each other in far flung parts of the world.

Marcy's freaking out. This is not the world she was imagining, & the horror & guilt of what she's just done begin to set in even as - elsewhere in the world - Anne desperately opens & closes the box to try & reactivate it, while Sasha has an angry anxiety moment of her own.

And the Guardian has their head in their paws, as eons of patient waiting just went down the drain.

The Hermits, meanwhile, are trying to start a season as normal whilst simultaneously investigating whatever the hell that energy blast that just nearly totalled the Hermithius was.

They're more cut off from the wider multiverse without the ship, after all.

And once they discover they have three more mouths to feed, that's also going to make getting their new friends home very difficult without a reference for where Earth is.

Because Joe Hills might be from Earth, but that doesn't mean he remembers where it is. :P

[shatter-song]

ok so I'm having a lot of toh and amphibia thoughts, and seeing some crossover stuff going (canon and/or fanon)

I have thought of a swapped settings au of both! where like Anne or whoever ends up in the BI and Luz ends up in Amphibia

more under the read more, because man this is LONG

i swear when i post this it better work

The Owl House!Amphibia

ok so the one from the calamity trio who goes the Boiling Isles in this is Marcy

Marcy's parents tries to send her to the camp because of how she acts in canon and sees this as a good opportunity to try to shape her into what they want

yeah they aren't entirely good people basically

Marcy says fuck that

she follows this pair of newts who tried to steal her switch

she meets Yunan and Olivia who live together in the Newt House who are witches! ooOOOoooO

they're on the run from the Emperor's Coven and their leader, Head Witch Andrias, for betrayal and stealing the portal door

Marcy who doesn't wanna go back home tries to convince them to let her stay and learn magic

when they inevitably come around, Marcy attends Hexside and eventually meets Anne and Sasha

so here, Sasha and Anne are the Mean Girls (not really Anne, she's more like Skara but she gets screen time and development like in canon. same goes for Sasha)

Anne and Marcy hit it off while her and Sasha don't

overtime, there's a falling out between them, with Anne and Marcy go together and Sasha is left alone with... uh, army of students she gathered on social hierarchy??

oh yeah did i mention Grime is her adopted father, with Percy and Braddock being honorary uncle and aunt

Anne is with her parents but can be regularly seen with the Plantars

Ivy and Maddie are the detention track kids

and that's really all I could think of rn

Amphibia!The Owl House

Luz, Amity, and Hunter are the humans in this one

however they didn't know each other beforehand

Luz's 15th birthday is coming up when Camila announces that they're moving away from Gravesfield

and Luz is... ok with that

Luz doesn't really have anything or anyone in Gravesfield besides her mom and it's always been her mom's dream to open her own veterinary clinic

so if it makes her happy, she's happy

Camila gives her money to at least find some kind of gift to herself since her birthday is coming up

Luz eventually finds the music box at some antique store

but before she can return home with it, she's runs into Amity Blight

Amity Blight, the top of her class, student role model, and definition of bitch /hj

her gang as well, consisting of others and Boscha (Luz: the hell kinda name is Boscha

Boscha: shut the fuck)

she steals the music box

BUT THEN A FUCKING WHITE BOY STEALS IT AND RUNS AWAY

so now you might be wondering: what the fuck

so Hunter Wittebane is this homeless 16 year old who ran away from an orphanage and is now stealing to survive - within reason of course

and the one place who wouldn't kick him out immediately is probably the public library

there he learns of the music box and what it does

he obviously doesn't believe that it actually takes people to other worlds but it could cost a lot of money which, you know, he needs

so using his pathetic white wet cat energy, he manages to take the book with him and see if he could find it

he of course wasn't expecting someone else with it much less fighting over it

so he does the most rational Big BrotherTM thing ever and goes

well if you can't share, you can't have it

and fucking steals it

they go on this goose chase, Luz because she paid for it, Amity because Hunter knocked over Boscha and she can't go because she hit her knee Amity!! she is in pain!!

eventually, Hunter gets cornered and Luz, being herself, tackles him

the music box gets thrown and hits Amity who in frustration kicks it away and accidentally activates it

they get sent to Amphibia

Luz is in Wartwood, Amity at Toad Tower, and Hunter at Newtopia

Luz eventually runs into the frogs, Willow Park and Gus Porter who near immediately take her in

Amity ends up with Raine Whispers who is staging a rebellion with the BATTs. they're obviously not called that in this setting but whatever

Hunter stays in with Lilith Clawthorne, the supposed ruler of Amphibia

and yeah that's about what I have

[agalychnisspranneusroseus]

Thinking more about sashannarcy soulmates AU and I wonder if we could imagine a situation in which the three Stones can only be properly used by three soulmates due to their special bond. It would explain why the power of the Stones was absorbed by the calamity trio when they first uses the box, something that doesn't happen with most users. Maybe that's another reason why Aldrich wanted Andrias to break it off with his friends - his two soulmates. He didn't want them absorbing the powers of the Stones.

But now 1000 years have passed, and a small, adorable human girl shows up in his throne room and the Core can feel the power of one of the Stones coming from her. She says she arrived with two friends, and Andrias immediately knows what happened.

The Core wants to kill her. The last remnants of Andrias' mortality tug at his heart - she's just a little girl. They can spare her. He has a better idea - reunite her with her soulmates, use their powers for the good of the kingdom, to open portals and travel to other worlds. Maybe there aren't any temples or rituals to charge the Stones. Their power is now forever lodged in each of these girls, but it can only be fully accessed if they are in perfect harmony with themselves, each other, and Amphibia.

Hard task for the most toxic lesbian polycule their middle school has ever seen.

Anyway, everything is set in motion as soon as Anne arrives to Newtopia, and Andrias' whole plan is playing matchmaker to these two girls. It sounds funny but what he does is encourage Marcy's worst impulses: her dishonesty and possesiveness. He tells her that everything depends on her friendship with these two girls (though he doesn't tell her they're her soulmates), and encourages her to not let Anne return to Wartwood. First big change. Plan is backfiring FAST because now Anne is sad and thinking about how much she'd rather be with the Plantars than with her soulmate who's right there. This isn't what Andrias envisioned. Neither did he expect Anne to tell her Sasha was her soulmate. He was hoping none of them knew, but the Plantars told Anne everything about soulmates (and Grime told Sasha lol). Things are getting out of hands. Marcy feels her friend slipping away from her faster than ever. Meanwhile Sasha is in hard denial of Anne being her soulmate. Anne is sad and confused about Sasha. Marcy feels left behind, not knowing she too is their soulmate. The Core orders Andrias to kill Anne and Marcy if the plan doesn't suceed. Marcy is a little bit in love with Anne, but now she thinks Anne belongs to another.

Amphibia Owl house crossover AU,

Blights of Amphibia

so, an AU I came up with, not an original concept but eh I find it fun,

for some reason the box is on the boiling isles, maybe Leif thought both herself and the box would blend in better so she could hide the thing and it would just get lost in the magic artifacts.

later in the story the box is found by the blight siblings, most likely Edric and Emara rummaging around the night market, possibly even sold to them by Eda. (This comes from that scene in knock knock knockin on hootys door, where the calamity box makes a cameo appearance on one of Eda's shelves in the background right before the Luz and Amity boat ride)

Edric and Emara take the box home with them, showing their cool find to amity, most likely cause of the "cool gems" on it, meanwhile Amity protests on where they even got it, but the twins brush her off and open it, BOOM! cue intro!

Surprisingly our main character is Edric! who got the calamity gem of heart, and landed near Wartwood, shocked, frightened, and yet surprisingly free feeling, this lovable idiot wanders the woods accidentally horrifying frogs and damaging his self-esteem until one of his traps accidentally catches Sprig. Cue the first episode!

During the story of this AU Edric is adopted by the Plantars and quickly becomes Sprig and Pollys chaotic magical older brother, to Hop pops annoyance. most of the episodes are probably Edric causing problems on purpose, getting himself in trouble, and having to fix it.

Also, I'm pretty sure Edric is goanna be best friends with One eyed Wally.

As for Amity and Emara.

Amity landed near Toad tower. becoming the gem of strength, it took some serious effort on the toads end to try and capture her due to her abomination magic, which the toads had never seen before, and where quick to inform Captain Grime about. Grime was incredibly curious of Amity's power, and what Amity even was, questioning her on if any more like her where out there, and finding out there where when he found Edric's shoe near Wartwood, still amity is stubborn and won't admit any information on her siblings.

Similar to Sasha, Amity used her experience with social manipulation on the toads to put them on her side, although her approach included less sugarcoating and a bit more aggression in her tone and words, she wasn't as successful as Sasha, but she at least had Percy and Braddock on her side.

The day the herons' attacked amity was quick to fight them, scrounging any materials she could for some sloppily put together abomination goo. Amity's skills in combat, her power, and formerly shown ruthless and cunning nature impressed Captain grime, and he decided to convince Amity to help defeat the herons, and after the battle offered her a position as his lieutenant in the toad army, to rule over Frog valley with almost ultimate power, and of course, being raised in a household where power and rank are everything, amity agrees, and joins the toad army.

While in the toad army amity goes even further down the rabbit hole of living up to expectations she would rather not in the name of keeping her rank than she was in the series, as she's changed her success strategy from purely academic, to military, still using emotional manipulation and other tactics when needed, but also using her abominations to scare frogs and toads into submission.

Emara ended up in Newtopia as the gem of wit.

Emara was also very stunned and confused after opening the box and suddenly landing in what appeared to be some kingdom entirely different from the boiling isles, as everyone appeared to be weird demons as far as she was concerned, not a witch in sight.

something that stung even more was that as soon as the residence of Netopia saw her, they started screaming about her being a hideous monster. Emara tried to explain herself to those who found her, but now she sounded like a monster that hit its head too hard and was a little nuts. A representative of Newtopia, Lady Olivia, was sent to check up on the commotion caused by this strange newcomer, claiming the king wanted to see her, understandably, Emara was worried, but figured eh, why not? if things went wrong enough, she could just poof out with some illusions.

Emara and Andiras don't really have the same click as Andrias and Marcy, though Emaras sarcastic and whitty nature does slightly remind him of how Leif was before everything went wrong and she touched the box, leading him to still have a connection with her, although a different one, he is also interested in her power, as Emara probably set up some illusions during their meeting, no doubt a selling point Andrias used in convincing the core she could be useful to them if kept alive.

During Emaras stay she was excited by having what seemed to be true freedom for once, although not being a great bridge builder like Marcy, she probably took up any adventures and jobs that seemed exiting, most likely ending up on the war ship with General Yunnan, fighting the giant snake, and dealing with the creepy cult, possibly even getting her own variant of Joe Sparrow, completely unaware of Andrias's bigger plans for her, and her siblings when she finds them.

I do want to draw more of or make comics of this AU when i have time, but I really wanted to just talk about it first, I still have some arks to work out, such as if any of the siblings knew what the box would do, or some of the character arks, plus what happens when they go back to the boiling isles, especially when it comes to Edric trying to find a place for the Plantars without Odalia kicking them out.

[tricobicoart]

Hi just realized i never explained the turtlesonas in amphibia au!! Basically, like it sounds, (post-shredder/main series finale) me & atlas(morningstarships)'s turtlesona & oc (fran(mine) & tito & vincent(his)) plus leo encountered the calamity box on a mission, opened it, and got transported to amphibia like the canon calamity trio! Fran is assigned heart & goes to wartwood, vincent is assigned strength & goes to toad tower, and leo & tito are assigned wit and end up in newtopia(they don't trust king andreas a single bit but they're playing as if they do)! In the turtlesonas in amphibia au, this is the first time tito & the others encounter andreas & the core, and the turtles take the time & place of the calamity trio, instead of tito's normal backstory where he meets them post-defeat-by-canon-calamity-trio.

Amphibia X Fairy Tail AU? 👀

The calamity stones as the rocks that second/third generation dragon slayer have

And

I had this idea: Anne ends up with Lucy a bit before episode 1, meets Natsu and Happy

Sasha ends up in Phantom Lord

Marcy ends up with Wendy in Cait Shleter (no idea if i spelt it correctly).

ok i didnt think of that first one at all but it solves so many problems omg

as for the rest (admittedly i havent thought about this au in a while) i wasnt really planning on including actual fairy tail characters i was just going to put amphibia characters in that universe but those are some fun ideas for an au that uses both casts!

in mine Anne joins a guild with the other characters from wartwood, Sasha joins a dark guild led by Grime, and marcy works for the magic council~ (which andrias is part of. two guesses as to how that ends up going)

i dont have much i came up with it during a brief period of time where my old fairy tail obsession came back in full force and i didnt really keep working on it once i moved on from that </3
