Cloney McCloneson, Elected Prime Minister of Bright Moon. "Call me Mickey." A fair and effective administrator, much loved by the people. @baggebythesea and @jidblogger

[freedfromthegalactichivemind]

Mr. McCloneson is honored to work with George and Lance for the mutual benefit of Etheria and the Freed Brothers Except For Hordak Who Thinks We Are Dweebs, the F.B.E.F.H.W.T.W.A.D. or the "Febefuwatwad" pronounced roughly like sticking your tongue out and blowing a raspberry. - They really have to work on a name. "Freed Brothers" should do nicely.

Princess Glimmer and the Day of Many Choices: Bow gets into sexy shenanigans with two hot, bisexual pirates (19/?)

"Hey, are you coming or not?" Sea-Ra said with a little 'couldn't care less' shrug at Bow. The look she gave him, on the other hand, was intense.

Behind her Sea Hawked grinned, a huge grin promising adventure of the most interesting kind.

"We'll teach you the way of the sea, lad," he said and held out his hand.

"But Boooooow," George and Lance pleaded. "We will need someone to take the minuuuutes at the comitté meetings."

"Sorry, fathers," Bow said. "Adventure is in my soul and can't be restrained. I will go where adventure takes me."

"But Booooow, the minutes," George and Lance cried, but Bow had made up his mind. He turned to Glimmer.

"Glimmer," he said with dramatic voice. "I love you and I want a life with you, but the sea beckons" (Sea-Ra smirked) "and I, poor fool, can't but follow. I can't ask you to wait for me, all I can ask you is to one day in your heart seek to forgive me."

"Oh, I think I'll manage," Glimmer blushed, her arms around Despara and Catra. "Have fun, I'll see you when you're done adventuring."

"And no going evil," he said with stern voice.

"No promises," she said with a little glance at Despara.

"Let's siiiiiing," Sea Hawk said.

"No," Sea-Ra sighed. "Let's go."

And with Bow and Sea Hawk in tow, they left.

"Well, I think we're done here," Glimmer said with a nod to George and Lance. "I eagerly look forward to your plan for political reform, taking into account all the intricasies of the current situation and wildly oposing wishes and needs of various parties. Until then we're off to Mystacor! there's a hot spring with our name on it." She took a firm grip of Despara's arm, patted Catra on the butt and teleported the three of them away.

"And I will teach Scorpia the 'flower language'," Perfuma purred with the innuendo in her words so clear that even Scorpia understood it. Wildly blushing, she was dragged away by the princess of Plumeria.

"Ugh!" Frosta complained. "Does love always turn people into idiots or is just a princess thing."

"Pretty universal, I'm afraid," Spinnerella said and traded a smirk with Netossa. "Now, come on kiddo. Now when there isn't a war going on, you have several years of homework to catch up on."

"NO FAIR!" Frosta yelled as she was marched away. "I WANNA BE A PIRATE TOO!"

"Well, seems like  we have a momentous task in front of us," George said to Lance as the crowd started to disperse.

"In order to be truly effective we would need at least a dozen sub committess," Lance mused. "But where would we ever be able to find people who could take care of all the associated administrative and diplomatic tasks?"

"Excuse me," a polite voice said. "Perhaps this would be the right opportunity for me to intrude on your conversation..."

They looked up and saw a tall clone in a stately dress.

"You see, my name is Cloney McCloneson," the clone said "and I represent several thousands of clones in need of employment and a chance for integration in the Etherian society. I wonder if we perhaps could be of mutual assistance to each other..."

[A truly bitchin' image]

"Ah, this is life," Sea Hawk commented as he stood in the stern of the Dragon's Daughter IX. "The winds in your face, the open ocean before you, the taste of salt."

I hope @freedfromthegalactichivemind won't mind that I borrowed Cloney McCloneson to play with a bit...

After this one, I'll take a break for a week or two while I do some other stuff, but then we'll be back for Pirate Shenanigans. Keep an eye on the 'Princess Glimmer and the day of many choices" tag to see when I start updating again.

Something very stupid I decided at work tonight... So, I vaguely remember some thread with @baggebythesea about Etheria experimenting with democracy? Or Queen Glimmer needing to put someone in charge of Bright Moon temporarily? And I made this joke about her reading election results and gacking at the winner; "CLONEY MCCLONESON?!!!" A random clone becomes President of Bright Moon. One with a ridiculous name, at that. Anyway, at work tonight, I was thinking about it and I have decided (in my own stupid post-canon headcanon world, at least), that (Bright Moon democracy aside), that there exists a clone named Cloney McCloneson. There is a reason for his name: This clone, all new and innocent to the world after the hive mind dissolved and just getting used to the very idea of names... well, he ends up in proximity one time to some utterly sarcastic and rather mean Etherian who points and says "Oh, Cloney McCloneson over there?" as an insult, but he picks up on it and chooses it as a name and it sticks for him. Eventually he is convinced to go by the nickname of "Mickey"(for "Mc") after being convinced that it is slightly more dignified than "Cloney McCloneson" and that the name is cuter. He agrees that "Mickey" is cuter. However, he never changes his name officially, so, while everyone calls him Mickey, on legal papers, he remains "Cloney McCloneson." He eventually becomes quite successful at some career or another, takes a lover / spouse and they have many hybrid children. "McCloneson" as a surname becomes accurate (sons of a clone), and it becomes quite a venerable name.

So, looking at Sweary She-Ra today and seeing a pic, once again, of THE BASTARD full in the face, I suddenly remembered back when the show as first coming out and that one section of Season 3? or Season 4? that flashed Horde Prime’s face in shadow, looking over Hordak’s Cloney McCloneson #1,000,003 and 1/2 ID photo and people debating what the lighted spots on his face were...  I think it was someone who isn’t in the fandom anymore I once knew was proposing “eyes, what if they’re eyes!” - being that this person is a fan of monsters and was one of those who knew some classic MotU stuff and was familiar with how crazy some character-designs got in the ‘80s.  I countered that I really didn’t think they were eyes, because I thought Prime was just going to be a bigger, more powerful version of Hordak in look because of the clone-plot he described earlier (and his lack of highlights in that).  I said “Oh, that’s just light off his cheek and brow” as in, I was thinking stark facial-edges, to make him look menacing.   And then we see him in full glory and... it’s eyes.   I could not believe that the crew gave the fucker extra, googly-looking eyes!

Unless he’s in the Clubs (being a clone), I really like imagining that there’s a Hordak of Hearts.  Entrapta insisted on it.    

Hordak doesn’t know why Entrapta’s always beating him at poker.

[littleapocalypsekitten]

Thanks. As long as it's all good. My She-Ra blog (if you wanted to unblock) is freedfromthegalactichivemind . I pretty much just reblog these days. I occasionally poke around in the tags and find a cute Entrapta or Hordak to reblog or feel the need to reblog an old Tipsy-comic. I haven't seven seen She-Ra in about two years now so I'm not active doing fanart or fic for it anymore. I got swept away with Zelda for a while and am full bore in the dust and dirt of Trigun, a revived old fandom for me. It's just more convenient to keep my fandoms all on separate places. (I am extremely prolific in both reblogs and fanarts for Trigun lately, so it's good that it gets its own space) instead of nestled in here where I might make fun of Joe Biden or happy-squealing about gorgonopsids or something. I also got swept up with life. In addition to getting my head together after 2021, I lost a VERY close loved one in 2023 and was just an absolute wreck with that. Did grief-counselling, managed to scrape together the money to go see some members of my family after over a decade a whole ass America away, because I needed to after losing the member of my found-family. Had to be one of the main planners for a memorial service, which I hadn't done before (and this is why *certain* spacebat stories of mine will never get new ones. Too close to home now). I've come out of everything a lot sadder, hopefully a bit wiser. Overall chilling in my own spaces. There's honestly only a single person I am still truly, actually angry at and I've had them blocked forever. (Not anyone I ever did any writing with, more.... nuclear tumblr-callout poster who was needlessly vindictive after I'd been kicked off their discord already). I don't do discord anymore, at all. Used it a little bit for private chats with a couple of friends, found I wasn't using it anymore and completely erased my name from the system. I'm happier this way.

Full disclosure: People from the She-Ra fandom might not want to follow me. Just because you got a boop doesn't mean anything, I'm racking up my boops. What happened between me and the fandom happened, like, three years ago, but I worry I may have a degree of infamy among ye olde Entrapdaks. People who had issues with me then blocked my She-Ra dedicated sideblog long ago, but had no idea on this one, which I kept under the radar in order to not miss out on getting art/writing prompts from people during the Entrapdak Positivity Months and so forth, which I did on my sideblog and on Ao3. But... I am barely in that fandom anymore. I've pretty much moved onto / back into my Trigun hyperfixation. All of my fandom-spaces have separate sideblogs, divorced from my personal-junk, which is here, and here is mainly just a junk-drawer space of reblogs and nonsense. I... honestly don't know if any She-Ra fans even remember me anymore - if I'm forgiven and forgotten or if am cancelled forever for misunderstandings, wankery and an overall mental breakdown I barely even remember. Just, to those who haven't been seeing me because you've had me blocked, I am booping Hordak's nose in the tag for fun. And I'm going to be shortly on a mission over in Trigun fandom to see how many of the Dead Mom fans I can find with boopable noses.

[freedfromthegalactichivemind]

Is this an ask to make something special or just to throw art out there we happen to have around?   If you want just art we have laying around already, I give you permission to use any or all of the following.  If you want stuff on the Entrapta and Hordak end (my specialty) you can use Hordak confused that he somehow became a lot of people’s blorbo.   Unfortunately, he’s in his Season 1 and Season 2 armor because I drew it at work from memory and couldn’t remember what the Season 3-on armor looked like specifically.  Perhaps Entrapta broke the fourth wall for him to explain to him carefully that he was in a comic based on a TV show and that, despite his villany, people blorboed him.  She also explains what tumblr is and tumblr-culture.  Maybe the explanation involved opening another portal to show our dimension to him.  Well, in any case, he’s very confused.   Or, if you prefer, something from a post-canon story I wrote where he puts up with a kitten that Entrapta adopts.  I think it’s out of character, though.  However, I’m sure the jokes could write themselves here. I mean...ex-warlord petting a kitten.   There’s always Entrapta being Entrapta.  (Not a post-canon art, though, she’s got her old mask).  It’s probably just my best fanart of her.    And here she is being creepy with her hair in an homage to Uzumaki.  Again, more of a random Entrapta than a post-canon.  And then, if you’re doing anything with clones at all, there is my supremely silly post-canon-character created as a part of conversations with jidiblogger and baggebythesea, Cloney McCloneson.  (He becomes the Prime Minister of Bright Moon, acting in Glimmer’s stead when she’s off on space-missions).  

The End is Nigh...

As we start Episode 8 of the final season, my mind is starting to wander towards the finale. And I think we should go out with something a little special.

Now, I'm very much in the 'is this possible' stage, but I'm thinking about doing an ending/thank you/end credits-type video, and I'm putting out feelers to see if anyone wants to help. There's two things I might need your help with:

A short (20-30 second) animatic featuring our favourite fourth-wall-breaker, Entrapta. It doesn't need to be a super fluid, TV-animation-style thing, and the team will take care of the audio and voice lines. If this sounds like something you're up for, send me a message and let me know roughly how long something like that would take, and what the cost is likely to be.

For the artists out there, do you have any post-canon art you'd be willing to have included (with credit, of course) alongside some thank-yous and silly jokes? This wouldn't be a paid thing so please don't create anything new for it (unless you really want to), but I'd love to have some pre-existing art of people after the war's over as part of the finale if people are willing to let me use it.

Again, I'm at the very early stages of an idea, but I'm putting it out to you all to see if you would like to help make it possible!

Trubs on the throne is either going to result in COMPLETE CHAOS, or... surprise! Surprise! They are an effective administrator and everything runs smoothly and everyone is floored! I love the Hordak-idea, though because it means everyone can go "HORDAK?" "Really?" "HORDAK?!?" No wars of conquest happen. Unless they need to.

Also thinking about "Battle Ready Bureaucrat" I now have this image of the Best Friend Squad rushing off to do something and Glimmer is like "Oh shoot someone needs to run the Kingdom for a few hours"

The only person around is Wrong Hordak

Glimmer: Eh good enough, here you go.

Turns out Wrong Hordak is a good administrator of keeping the fort afloat till Glimmer comes back.

;p

I am honestly not sure I have the skill to write such a fine comedy alone. I could see this as a group project. @sometipsygnostalgic @baggebythesea @tippenfunkaport - interested in some kind of join-in? Something about this seems like your vibe! Particularly Glimmer and Bow reactions! I could arrange some kind of round-robin reblog-story type of thing...

[freedfromthegalactichivemind]

Aw, poor spacebats...  I wonder if, post-series, if any of them in reformation / learning life after Prime are a bit afraid of their liberator because they were there when she whallopped the piss out of them.   Cloney McCloneson: Ah! Adora.... *nervous gestures with hands.*  Why... yes, yes, I have been elected Prime Minister of fair Bright Moon.  *Holds up hands over head* Please don’t hurt me!  NOT THE FACE! NOT THE FACE!  Adora: Huh? Calm down, guy! Why would I hurt you?   McCloneson: I was there when you were rescuing Catra and the She-Ra reawakened!  You got me good with the flat of your sword! And then the hilt!  My knee still hurts when the weather is damp... *Ears down.* 

[freedfromthegalactichivemind]

Oh, I've missed a bit of this storyline! Has Cloney McCloneson been handing some of the regular affairs of Bright Moon well as all of the weirdness has been going on?

Princess Glimmer and the Day of Many Choices: The only way to stop an evil mom is an evilier mom (29/?)

"Perfuma!" Scorpia cried and hurled herself forward to stop the sparks, but before she had the time, a black and purple seal formed out of thin air, blocking the attack immediately.

"What are you children?" playing at now? came a well known, smooth and rich and only slightly slurred voice.

"You… saved me?" Perfuma gasped.

"Yeeees, princess," Shadow Weaver smarmed. "I wouldn't want to throw away potential such as yours…" She leaned forward to touch Perfuma's hair, causing Perfuma to take a step back in discomfort.

"YOU!" the Scorpion woman snarled with absolute loathing and hatred in her voice.

"Scorptra?" Shadow Weaver said in genuine surprise. "What are you doing here? Didn't I already kill you once?"

"You killed my mom?" Scorpia gasped.

"Yeeeees," Shadow Weaver happily said, apparently enjoying the memory. "I killed BOTH your moms. Poison. It was a slooow, paiiiinful death… What? They stood between me and power," she said, as if that would explain everything.

"DIE!" Scorpia's mom snarled and unleashed another torrent of electricity, which Shadow Weaver easily blocked.

"If you couldn't get me back then, what makes you think you can get me now?" Shadow Weaver taunted.

"Because now she's working with me, witch," Angella said with measured voice. "And your loathsome presence in this world has been tolerated for way too long."

Shadow Weaver looked up and met the gaze of the queen.

"Oh fuck," she said with low voice.

"Now, die. Be mourned by no one," Angella said matter-of-factly and unleashed a ball of light, bright as the sun. Shadow Weaver scrambled to pull up a magic defense, but the light melted straight through it.

It was only in the very last moment that a plant vine placed itself between the shadow witch and the lighting ball

"What?" Perfuma said as Catra, Adora and Glimmer gave her a long look. "It's not like I would just let her die. It has nothing to do with her flattering me."

"Very good," Shadow Weaver panted and got to her feet. "You have power, oh daughter of Plumeria (who I totally remember the name of). I hope you don't squander it like others have done." She gave Adora and Glimmer a meaningful look. "In fact, under my guidance you could…"

"Why is my mom here?" Scorpia asked, staring with huge eyes at the older Scorpion woman, currently engaged in finding something heavy to throw at Shadow Weaver. "How is my mom here?"

"What she said!" Glimmer cried, staring at Angella.

"Enough chit-chat!" Shadow Waver cried. "Follow me! (Except you, Catra. Stay behind and die)"

"Where are we going?" Adora asked, firmly dragging Catra with her as Shadow Weaver oozed down a corridor.

"To that infernal machine Hordak and that cursed tinkerer from Dryl built," Shadow Weaver cried. "If Angella is here, that means the walls between words is not holding as well as they should. We have to stop something even worse from crawling out from the woodworks.

[freedfromthegalactichivemind]

First Cloney McCloneson and now this... The most interesting threads happen in this fandom.

Here's a cute little head canon you might enjoy

So lately I've been coming up with the strange idea that after the war Adora starts to "Find herself" and realizes that the Brightmoon aesthetic isn't for her, and as a "Horde Baby" she misses the blacks, the gothic designs and even some of the more harsher elements of the Fright Zone (Minus of course the trauma and what not)

So Adora begins going her own Adams family route and having a gothic aesthetic to her. Black gowns spikes crowns, spooky fortress for a house etc etc.

Anyway to the part you might like.

I just imagine Adora spending a lot of time in Dryl and Hordak teaching her how to properly apply black eyeliner she can wear daily, and maybe loaning a big cape or two.

This is so funny! An online friend of mine / long term Facebook friend with whom I exchange art and crafting stuff sent me a cape. A full-on cape! I'd expressed interest in it and it arrived today. It's red. It's not exactly a proper villain-cape, though. It's a short-cape and in-model resembles somewhat the cape worn by Meryl Stryfe in the original run of Trigun (anime), like a half-cape. But, you know, I know what it's like to have a friend who will give you a handmade adcape. Which is pretty cool. It would be funny to have an innocent / benevolent take on the "Despara" idea! You know, I've had an idea long-term regarding Adora and "Fright Zone things" in terms of food of all things. Like, we all know that Adora discovers regular Etherian food and is all over it, but I always liked the thought that "she misses ration bars sometimes" and finds a way to procure them. This thought struck me when I was contemplating my love of the McRib along with my knowledge that it was originally developed as an army-ration before it became a fast food item. I thought of my love of "crappy" poor-people food born out of being a poor person that would probably continue on in my life if were were to ever by some improbable stroke of luck become rich. I just sort of thought "the girl grew up on army rations, so maybe she'd have this inexplicable love for them that would gross out her Princess friends." Except Entrapta - she likes how small and efficient they are. An entire aesthetic? Yeah, works too. I see this going double for Catra, who absolutely does not strike me as the pink and sparkly Barbie-aesthetic princess-type!

Glimmer: "I'm so pleased for you to be Chancellor, Chancellor Cloney McCloneson."

Cloney McCloneson: "Don't worry your majesty (cermonial title). I will do my best to serve the kingdom. Wink."

Glimmer: "Did you just..."

Cloney McCloneson: "I think you have met my political advisor?"

Wrong Hordak: "Wink!"

Glimmer: "Smile and nod, smile and nod..."

Imagine Glimmer having her own Magna Carta moment ;p

I love that as a direction for Etheria
