#eldritch zero smg4

[thehazelmist]

Alright. I drew all the SMG4 arc antagonists! So I've been drawing this for a few days. And I really like how it turned out! I know Niles and Eldritch Zero are kinda the same entity, But I added them as separate to represent both arcs.

[gameprime420]

Already did one of these with Melony and Second might as well do the inverse

[wolfmage553]

I think this might have been a way Axol could've escaped Eldritch Zero's possession.

ELDRITCH ZERO v SMG1.

…

(he’s losing help him)

two wip photos I took:

[ey3sof7hecorru9t3d]

I saw worm and immediately thought of this lol

The art is still very awesome though!

Oh no they pulled a Steven Universe

Just like how Niles and SMG0 can fuse into Eldritch 0, 3 and 4 of the Godbox AU can also fuse into their own abomination, and go TRUE VIRUS! In this form, they can fly, do eldritch blast, throw mountains, turn you into a worm, etc. etc. etc.

As for who's in control, it's usually up for debate.

I'm sure they plan on using this form responsibly.

[mage-ical-character-person]

You know looking back on it, rewatching some stuff, I don’t think stuff like the weird stuff Four was doing during Meme Factory and surrounding episodes was him necessarily relapsing because he was never not Like That. (Love him he is so character flaws but also full of silliness and care about friends but bad at friends)

All this and also he way he treated the Leggys was so similar to whatever he was doing to the Toads at the start of what would become the whole IGBP fiasco

This man has 2 objectives in life: make memes and love and protect his friends. He WILL forget which one is more important. Not sure he actually learned much from IGBP I think he’s just burdened with guilt without full understanding of what he actually did wrong.

I MEAN. Immediately after all that Mario invites Four to live with him! After Mar10 day!! With zero hesitation and so much excitement! Despite everything that just happened Mario is still so excited that his best friend will be staying with him! He hasn’t gotten to spend time with SMG4 in so long, and now they get to live together! (Mario is so good in this episode. The well intentioned silly guy!) But SMG4 is pretty quickly fed up with everything Mario does. (What was he expecting?)

He’s back at it. Four, this is Mario’s house and he’s minding his own business frankly. These are normal Mario activities. Yes there are noises but c’mon. Someone tell SMG4 to invest in some headphones for when he’s editing.

You’d think, given the circumstances, Four would be a little more patient with what are pretty standard and honestly relatively tame Mario antics. But…

Right back to the same kind of stuff. Brushing off and being grouchy with best friend who just wants to hang out with him so bad. Because doing his meme stuff is just so important. (Four you idiot you’re supposed to be doing the meme stuff WITH Mario, though, because that’s your Avatar and also Four making memes of Mario is shown to help stabilize him by like siphoning out excess meme energy or however it works. Like that’s a whole ‘nother layer to all this. Four is like Mario’s pharmacist and the meds is making memes of him. Utterly bizarre and screwed up situation)

He has learned next to nothing I love that for him. Genuinely. Traumatic event of Eldritch Horrors does not erase character flaws of bad priorities and being unable to recognize how far is too far. SMG4 be niceys to Mario challenge (difficult but not impossible.) (He can be niceys sometimes)

More reasons Four shouldn’t bring things contaminated with Puzzles’ bad vibes and evil goop to the Showgrounds, which is also contaminated with Puzzles’ bad vibes though there is no confirmed evil goop.

I keep bringing this up. But it’s just cause I’m very worried. And they’re yet to have a episode where they set up the new rides and stuff and so I’m just marinating this in my brain until something happens.

Just… the fact that the Showgrounds used to belong to Puzzles, and nothing much has come from that yet, aside from the implication that maybe it was his first (failed) attempt at an amusement park. And now Four’s bringing more Mr Puzzles stuff there when it’s explicitly shown that the demonic goop from IGBP is present in Puzzle Park… and there’s the fact that Four himself may or may not still be carrying it in some way.

And while he’s fine so long as meme-making/his channel isn’t in any sort of conflict with what his friends want or are doing , when they are he falls into old habits and often picks the wrong one as the bigger priority. He’s still doing the stuff that brought on the perfectionist goop horrors in the first place, all while bringing things afflicted by the goop to his home. (There’s also the matter of SMG4 Inside Out, where he displays character development when he is fairly polite and good to Mario who has interrupted his editing to demand milk, despite Four’s first thought being “Let’s murder this guy please” curtesy of his inner anger, Bob. Four is good to Mario until Mr Puzzles invades his brain. Is he still in there?) It can’t end well.

Well it can end well for us because maybe it can end in the parallels I won’t shut up about finally being acknowledged. Can’t end well for SMG4 though.

(Also with the Showgrounds becoming a proper fairgrounds with the addition of rides from Puzzle Park we get the opportunity for Puzzles to be like “That blue idiot is living MY dream!” When he eventually gets out of the institution. And Three could respond with like “Been there but at least I was never this pathetic about it” I dunno man.)

Link to my previous post with other fanfic places I posted this fic at is here!

TW: The following story contains dark themes such as PTSD, and disturbing imagery.

   It was raining hard late into the night at the showgrounds. Everyone was fast asleep in their respective rooms peacefully except for one. Four had just finished editing his latest video, ready to call it a night. He gets up from his chair and stretches his body. He changes into his PJs and hops to his bed and closes his eyes to forget reality for a moment.

Fog clouds Four's vision as he tries to watch where he was stepping. He looks around cautiously, trying to figure out his location. He looks ahead to see a silhouette of something he couldn't put his finger around.

"Hello! Can you help me figure out where I am? I'm a little lost here!" He shouted at the shadow from a distance. The shadow doesn't reply. The guardian walks towards the mysterious figure, his brows scrunched in irritation as the silence between the two thickens. The fog slowly clears up the more SMG4 gets closer to the figure. The figure's shadow clears as Four gets close, stopping dead in his tracks. His eyes widen seeing a person he hasn't seen in a while......Desti.

Desti looks at Four coldly. Her octarian eyes staring deep into his soul. Four could feel himself sweating as the scene changed to where she had died but something was different. Four looked down to see the very sword that killed her, pierced into his heart. He instantly felt everything at once. The pain, no way of breathing, and the shockwave his body felt as he kneeled down before her.

"If only you had been quicker with realizing that anime trash was behind me, I would have been still alive and Meggy wouldn't have gone through such a traumatic event." She spoke with such venom in her mouth. Four began coughing up blood as it started to spread on his overalls. He looks down in shame, looking at his hand, shaking tears threatening to come out.

"I...I was trying to save everyone." He managed to say before the scene and the person changed again. He closes his eyes, feeling himself glitch into the transition. He notices the sword that was previously on his chest disappear and holds on to his chest, anxiety slowly kicking in as he is back in the god box. More specifically, where they first met the real SMG0 and Niles.

He looks up to see the sky, remembering the mixture of colors where they fought Eldritch Zero and almost dying in the void of the box with Mario and SMG3. He hears a dark chuckle, snapping himself back and gasps in horror as he sees both his avatar and his guardian partner's Mario reskin covered in many injuries.

"MARIO! SMG3!" Four screams in terror and he runs towards the two but is cut short due to something landing between him and the lifeless bodies. He looked closer to see the thing that stopped him was none other than Melony in her Fierce Deity form.

"M-melon-" Four began to say before Melony cuts him off from speaking further. Her bubbly tone was replaced with a more serious and angry tone.

"Why?" She began, her face twisting into an angered expression that scared the shit out of the meme guardian.

"Why are all the bad things happening to us while you only get so little pain? Are we just characters that you can just play with their emotions and screw them over whenever you want?" The melon Deity says, her voice shaking from the tears that came out with her grief. 

"It's a shame really." Another voice rang as the two original guardians appeared in between Melony. Zero looks away, not looking at the heartbroken Four. The teary eyed guardian looks to her right and growls in anger as Niles stares at him with a smug ass smile on his face.

"And yet with your best intentions, have you ever stopped to wonder if you ever did more harm than good?" Niles asked in a taunting tone.

Four's eyes widen in rage as he runs to the trio going head on towards Niles screaming angrily. Both Niles and Zero disappeared at the same time and fell to the ground right in front of Melony. He looks up in horror to see the two merged into their Eldritch version behind her staring him down emotionlessly. She picks up the blue hero effortlessly as the male struggles to get away from her grasp.

"M-melony please.....listen to me.", SMG4 tearfully said, feeling his face wet with tears.

Melony opens her mouth to speak to Four before throwing him into the abyss. But instead, the voice of the monster behind her spoke in her body as he was thrown far into the next place.

"P A T H E T I C."

Screams were heard in the void. Four felt like he was flying into the void for an eternity when suddenly felt himself going downwards to something.....and he was going down at the speed of light. Four shields himself, shutting his eyes tight as he was embracing for impact that never came.

He counted to himself as he tried to calm himself down. He waited for anything to tell him he was either alive in his dream or awake back in his new room. Sounds of the keyboard echos in his ears as he opens his eyes immediately wondering where this nightmare had taken him this time. He looks around the room he was in. His heart racing, realizing where he is. Back to the beginning, where it all began. Four's breath quickens as he watches his 2022 self glued to the computer, his room a mess along with his restless appearance he had the day he snapped at his friends for turning off the wifi.

"It's crazy isn't it?" He heard a familiar voice from the shadows. Four jolts up in surprise to his friend Axol sitting on his old bed, looking at him with sadness and pity. The axolotl looks back to the older design, a frown intact on his face.

"I was once the world's best mangaka. I had it all. Fame, fans, people that adored all my hard work and enjoyed all of what I brought to the table. Meeting you all and going through all the insane near death experiences changed my life." Axol said with a heartbroken tone.

"A-axol please..... I-I'm sor-"Four weakly tries to apologize to his friend and carefully walks towards him.

"YOU APOLOGIZE?! AFTER BEING DEAD FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS ONLY NOW YOU CHOOSE TO APOLOGIZE?!" Axol screamed at Four with such rage. Four immediately stopped approaching and jolted in surprise, seeing him in such a state. Axol's body changed from his original form to the second stage of the time "Zero" possessed him.

"I NEVER GOT TO EXPERIENCE TRUE ROMANCE AND GO ON PROPER DATES! INSTEAD OF THAT, THE GIRL I FEEL FOR HAD TO KILL ME!!!" He shouts more aggressively. Four fell to his knees, looking down in shame. Letting his dead friend chew him out with his words.

The ground beneath him changes again to the outside of where the castle once was. Four looks up to the empty space before him. His guilt kicks into high gear as he lets his tears fall out and hugs himself in pain. He drowned out all the audio in the current setting he was in that he didn't hear someone walking towards the weeping male. He stops his tears for a moment to see a familiar shoe that had a skull on the side standing in front of him. Four lifts his upper body to see his ex rival looking at him. His face was unreadable as Four felt his lips shiver as the other male kneeled in front of him.

"Just like when I almost died during the 10th year anniversary party and during the god box incident. I almost died during Mario day.... didn't I?" Three spoke with pure fear in his eyes. The final glitch changes from the old castle to Three's Coffee N' Bombs where it was infested with snails. Four's eyes widened in fear and looked behind him to see a scribbled out face of Mario petting one of the snails. The blue guardian could feel himself tearing again as he felt Three's hand gently grab his face to see him. Seeing the way the other meme guardian stared at him shattered his soul, making him cry on the spot. Three's eyes changed from his warm ruby colored eyes to the yellow colored eyes, his skin and hand covered in black veins.

"Can you imagine what that's like?", Three gulped as he felt his own tears coming out seeing his partner cry. "To be completely and utterly failed.....time and again....by someone that meant the world to you..." 

Four shot up from his bed drenched in sweat. His entire body was shaking from what he just experienced. He shakily covered his face with his hands, his sobs echoing in the blue man's room. He cursed the loud pouring rain outside for creating such a horrible nightmare. All he wanted was to create a new home for everyone after everything was said and done. Is having a peaceful life in his new home really hard to have? 

In the meantime he'll have to do what he always did when this recurring nightmare happened. Hold himself close and let his tears out until there's nothing left so he can sleep.

[everydayarsonist]

Hey yknow Glitch Productions? I’m gonna rank their villains.

Waluigi- 6/10. A funny interpretation of the “Everyone is Here!” Meme.

Bob- 8/10. The Rapper Bob Arc might be low stakes, but I really like how it twists a side character into a main antagonist. Bob slowly revealing just how twisted he’d become is amazing, and I’m glad they don’t forgive him right away.

Francis- 7/10. He’s the worst dude ever. Y’all remember when the Anime Arc was the darkest? Yeah me neither. In any case, Francis is also terrifying because if you’ve been on the internet for long enough, you’ve probably met someone like him.

SMG3- 8/10. Making a recurring villain the main villain of an arc was a solid choice, and it’s certainly menacing watching him replace the entire cast. I don’t have much else to say.

SMG0 (Or Eldritch Zero if you’re @itsgemystic)-6/10. He doesn’t really get much development other than his verses in the rap battle. He of course has to possess Axol because of course he does. We need some of that artificial drama and angst.

Niles- 8/10. The building tension in the arc of “Who is this guy? Why is he helping Melony? Why is his name Niles?” The slow realization of “Oh shit is this Zero?” has a looming presence. He doesn’t do much in the finale though.

Lawyer Kong- 4/10. He is essentially the representation of the existential dread that Nintendo has on the channel. But he’s not really utilized well. Small tangent, but the rap battle just feels so overconfident and exaggerated on the part of the SMG4 crew. I do adore his vocals just being drawn from the OG DK rap’s vocals. He sounds great, especially during the rap battle.

Wren- 9/10. He has some buildup as this greatly skilled champion during prior episodes and some allusions to him being looked down upon in recent years. Him being a villain isn’t too surprising, as the simulation itself builds him up as a dangerous outlaw. He immediately makes an impact on Meggy and the audience from just a few scenes. Overall, he’s a great execution of the “Pure Evil” trope. He doesn’t need to be redeemed. You understand his actions and know that he was influenced by someone else, but he’s still a terrible person.

Derek Lucks- 8/10. He’s a prideful businessman who won’t let morality get in the way of making money and advancing the industry.

James Sheridan- 8/10. He’s a scientist who spent years in the shadows, never getting recognized for his accomplishments. So now he’s going to show the world what he can do. He could’ve used more buildup, but he’s still a menacing villain whose presence is felt through the whole season.

Evelyn Claythorne- 9/10. She’s a spoiled rich white girl. That’s about it. She has some nuance, but it’s really not much. It’s incredible watching her getting slapped in the final episode imo.

Benedict- 7/10. He’s an evil genius crime boss who wants to be immortal. He’s not too complex or too threatening, but he’s definitely dangerous and immoral. Why does Meggy always have to fight the irredeemable ones?

The Absolute Solver- 8/10. Comedic and Scary. definitely had some chilling moments and great fights, but I wish we’d gotten a bit more lore about it.

[strawberry-sticky-autism]

Probably where the SMG4 Revival AU began

Niles: This can't be the end… We were supposed to be together in our new universe… SMG0: We are together Niles… and that's enough… Come on buddy… Let's go… I bet Fred's waiting for us… (Niles stares for a moment, conflicted, before smiling… and grabbing 0's shoulder) SMG0: Huh? Niles, what are you- Niles: 0. I've done… so much wrong… all because I wanted a perfect universe… And what's worse is that I dragged you into it… SMG0: Ni-Niles, I- Niles: I may need to move on, but you deserve a second chance. (Niles pulls 0 into a hug) Niles: Take care of yourself, okay? (Niles releases 0… and shoves him back) (Outside the Eldritch Zero, SMG0 bursts out from his chest) SMG4: Huh? (Both he and Melony turn around) SMG4: !!! SMG0! (Melony gasps, grabs SMG0'S arm and pulls him onto the escaping giant Mario head) SMG0: (holding out his hand) NILES, WAIT! (Eldritch Zero dissipates, revealing only Niles. He smiles, closes his eyes and drifts into the smoke) SMG0: (Lowers his hand, beginning to tear up) Niles… (The rest of the scene of them escaping goes as normal, up until they crash into the ground back home) SMG0: Uuugh… Tari: Uh, who's that? (SMG0 flinches, gets to his feet, and plasters on a smile) SMG0: Uh, hi… I'm SMG0, and… I… (His smile quickly faded. Beginning to tear up, he shoves his face in his hands) SMG0: …I'm so sorry for everything that's happened… I'm so sorry… (sobbing) (Everyone stares in concern, even Mario has nothing to say. SMG2 turns to SMG1) SMG2: Hey, One? SMG1: Yeah? SMG2: I don't think he was in control of… that Zero. SMG1: Yeah… I don't think so either…

And the last frame Includes every single other SMG4 villain.

I'm not saying this Is bad, I just felt like making this meme after WOTFI 2024. After It Implies Mr. Puzzles Is going to return again.

When do you think Mr. Puzzles will disappear for good? Because It certainly looks like the team has a favorite, and so do we...

[kuromispamton2000]

i'm very much upset that people still hate the new episode, then let's call Puzzles the guy who is worst than Waluigi, Francis, SMG3, Eldritch Zero, Niles and Lawyer Kong together and fucking flip page

i fucking hate see people treat Puzzles that way, i can't stand this i always try to see it on the way of "people suffered a lot from him, he has no the rights" but i just can't! maybe because i hurted and used people in my favor in the past for be hurt by an "stupid traumatic story" (which was my first boyfriend had break with me only "an 1 year of difference" when i had people minor than me for 4 years wtf!?)

but people gave me a second chance even if sometimes i show little parts of me being manipulative and possessive with things or people?

i am tired of this massive hate, is like if people had forgot how Serial Killers are born, for the love of god

"Serial Killers are made in majority of cases when a person had a traumatic life, with abuse and dysfunctional family and people not liking em on any sense and making em lonely with their thoughts that tell em to do a way of calm their pain" there are cases that they are made because they're mental sick and they need be medicated but in majority they are made because they had a hard life

but whatever i am fucking mad at the community they sure no forgive em cuz there is SMG4 and Meggy between, because if it was...idk MELONY he could had been forgiven like NILES!?

[wolfmage553]

(If Eldritch Zero ended up in The Amazing Digital Circus instead of SMG4's world)

Eldritch Zero: *Grabs Pomni* Tell me where the avatar of your world is and I will let you live.

Pomni: Avatar? I don't understand what you're talking about.

Caine: *Zaps Eldritch Zero's hand* Let go of Pomni!

*Eldritch Zero drops Pomni in shock*

Caine: Pomni, get behind me. I can handle this.

*Pomni gets behind Caine*

Eldritch Zero: Are you the avatar of this world?

Caine: *Singing* I don't know who you are or why you're here, but let me make this one truth clear: I've got people to protect, souls I can't neglect, so I'm not taking chances here.

*Caine creates a rune circle under Eldritch Zero*

Caine: If you make one wrong move then you're done for, anything I don't approve then you're done for, I can change your form

*Caine snaps his fingers, causing Eldritch Zero to defuse back into Niles and SMG0*

Caine: like that and you're done for, *Points cane at Niles* So you better run or soon you will be done for.

Decided to make a Fun Parody Edition with the SMG4 cast in an AU of Lewis Carroll's most popular story, "Alice In Wonderland" starting the one and only Meggy Spletzer. I was kinda looking a bit into Old Classic literature lately and then this idea randomly hit Me, so I had to drew it out of my head. Roles in this Story Alice: Meggy White Rabbit: Luigi TweedleDee and TweedleDum: Swagmaster and Chris Dodo: Bowser Bill The Lizard: Shroomy Caterpillar: Jeeves Duchess: Toadette Cook: Toad Cheshire Cat: Niles Mad Hatter: Mario March Hare: Bob Dormouse: Fishy Boopkins Queen of Hearts: Peach King of Hearts: Toadsworth Mock Turtle: Depresso Gryphon: Rob the Scarecrow Walrus and Carpenter: Wario and Waluigi Jabberwocky: Eldritch Zero (If Niles fused with SMG0 that is) SMG4 (c) Luke and Kevin Lerdwichagul Mario and Legend of Zelda (c) Nintendo Alice in Wonderland (c) Lewis Carroll
