i have a ghoap au im calling "private person au"
so weird idea i have thats like a mix of the og and reboot cod mw
so 141 is comprised of Price Ghost Gaz Roach and theyre working w/ Ale, Rudy, Kortac and others. specifica of who exactly is 141 doesnt matter, what does matter is that Soap is not 141 in this au
now for whatever reason 141 ends up on a Glasgow miltitary base with Captain MacTavish; who, after becoming his neice's guardian a few yrs ago following his sister's passing, he took an on-base job training recruits and being on the field as little as possible. His neice lives on base with him, shes a cadet and has the teenage power of giving snarky all knowing looks and being able to get away with lauging in people's faces at their stupidity.
so Ghost and Soap are married and co-parent the neice im naming Maisie.
when the 141 end up on the same base as Soap and Maisie the family decides to not tell the 141 straight up that ghoap are married but they will if asked directly.
the 141 initially assumes that Ghost is like friends with Soap or that they used to work together (not entirely wrong but not exactly right) but what really confuses them is his relationship to Maisie. they're really close and at first they think "ew is this like nonce shit?" but when Price pulls Maisie to one side and asks if thats whats going on she laughs in his face hysterically for almost two minutes before calming down and saying "if it was anything like that you wouldn't find his body" (ghost taught her intimidation skills, price will never admit to being afraid of a 15-yr-old but goddamn shes scary)
so they're no longer worried about that but they are confused, ale and rudy are the first to figure it out and ask but they find the entire thing so funny that they aren't going to say anything
price is next, he realised that ghost treated Maisie like his kid and went from there. he also thinks the situation is hilarious
eventually everything comes out by ghost getting up from the table at the cafeteria to go do paperwork or something and kissing soap on the cheek before he goes, everyone is in shock and soap doesn't even address it he just keeps talking to ale about training recruits and the best methods for various things (they bonded over being in charge of bases)
it doesn't get addressed until the next day, gaz is the one that broaches the question ghost just responds that they've been married for like 12 years, practically since they met because they knew the other was it. Roach just quietly congratulates them before gaz blows up like "how did we not know????"
"im a private person."
"YOU HAVE A HUSBAND AND CHILD!!"
"you didn't need to know"
Maisie found the entire thing hysterical, she takes great pleasure in telling gaz "ill tell my dad" when he annoys her and he doesn't know if he should be more afraid of ghost or soap

A recent post in the mumbo jumbo tag has me thinking abt my old dsmp x hermitcraft au from like. 2-3 years ago so here's some 4am rambles abt it!!! Reminder that it's c! not cc! yada yada you get it
Grian being Tommy is a given. Like they're an inch away from being the same person. It's so obvious. Grian is a generally very confident guy, though it's mostly a façade and he's pretty easily broken if you do/say the right things.
Mumbo fits pretty easily into Wilbur's role - not for any real reason, but I also fully believe Mumbo has the capability to go from definitely not a drug van to blowing up said drug van in the name of "captain goes down with his ship" because if he can't have it no one can
To continue with sbi I kind of struggled on who would be Techno, but then. Doc. Because who else??? I fully believe Doc would find some way to automate netherrite mining to make enough gear for an army (however small it may be.) Also the image of him kind of being brothers with Mumbo and Grian is so funny. Doc would 100% support Mumbo going on a villain arc and would also summon a wither while waxing poetic about heroes and villains and how everyone but him is kinda the bad guy because. That's kinda what he already does??
Scar. Scar is hard because I really like the image of him being Schlatt as a reference to s7, but I think he works better as Tubbo. Scar is underestimated imo, and I think Tubbo's whole arc meshes really well with Scar as a character. Also the tragedy in the "who am I without you?" "yourself." Really fits Grian and Scar??
I still haven't figured out Ranboo so. If anyone has any suggestions please lmk.
For Phil I think Xisuma really helps round out sbi. Again not for any real reason - out of everyone I've mentioned so far, I know the least about Xisuma - but I am feral for the very familial bond he and Mumbo seem to have and. Well.
I really like Cub as Quackity. It started when Scar was originally Schlatt as a reference to Convex, but I can totally see Cub in Quackity's casino arc. Otherwise I don't know a lot about him so if anyone has a better idea lmk!!
Pearl is Niki. Given the life series, I can totally see Pearl getting super attached to L'manburg, then feeling utterly betrayed by it and burning down the tree but she secretly never stopped caring about it. She's already lost her life for that country, and she's willing to die for it again, even if that country died alongside her in that control room. Unfortunately I still don't have anyone for Eret/Jack :(
Getting a little off topic, I think Ren would make a good Sam. I believe wholeheartedly that whatever lore Ren has going on that he would do a story where he literally is just Sam. Ren is another character I don't know too much about so again if there's any other suggestions. You get it.
I think that's everything I have so far tbh. I've been pacing in circles trying to figure out who would be Dream and I think figuring him out would help the whole rest of the au but. Yeah. Again suggestions are very much appreciated because this was originally a crack au when I first got into hermitcraft right after my dsmp hyperfixation lol
#hermitcraft#hermitblr#dream smp#dsmp#mcyt#grian#tommyinnit#mumbo jumbo#not tagging the nibbler.#docm77#technoblade#gtwscar#tubbo#xisuma#philza#cubfan135#quackity#pearlescentmoon#niki nihachu#rendog#awesamdude#did i really go through the effort and tag all of them.#yes.#it was excruciating.#esp because its nearly 5am#im going to bed goodnight tumblr#leo if you see this dm me please im so autistic about them

How’d you get into writing? I have a few general ideas but have no idea how they would come to fruition 😭!
I got into writing fanfic because I really wanted to see certain things written out and to read them. I just felt this overwhelming need to write just so I could read it. It is very much "if you want to eat something, you have to make it yourself."
I know you are just asking how I got into it but I thought I would include my process in case you found it helpful. For background, I've been writing fanfic for 7 years. For a very long time, I was not good at writing. I learned English very close to the end of my critical period for language learning and struggled for over a decade before I got my footing. Through my own experiences and what I learned from school, I figured out how I prefer to go about write.
I am going to use First Fight from the Baby!Loscar AU as an example since it took me the longest to write. I came up with the idea in April but did not manage to finish it until August but I felt I improved my writing process a lot more.
The idea- which is the stage I think you are at. You have an idea and maybe a scene figured out but you haven't worked it out how this scene connects and how everything forms a whole story.
My idea was just " Logan and Oscar having their first big fight and not handling it well."
2. Write the most imperfect draft you can- I don't say rough draft because it makes people think that the next draft has to be a final draft. I genuinely mean imperfect. Grammar and punctuation? Does not matter. Formatting? Doesn't exist. Logic and cohesive timeline? Irrelevant. What you want is for all your thoughts and ideas to be on a page and it can be in any way you want. It can be bullet points, written scenes, summaries. Doesn't matter.
My imperfect draft was just this section of dialogue and it sat on my computer for months
“We are not friends! Go away!” Oscar had yelled.
“I don’t like you! I hate you!” Logan had yelled back.
“I hate you too!” Those were the last words spoken between them.
3. Know what you want to get across- This is your Northern star, it will guide you when you are lost. Dialogue, timelines, plot- all of those things are subject to change. What isn't going to change is the message you wanted to get across. What is your theme, your core?
For First Fight, it was "these kids do not handle being separated very well. They love each other, they had a misunderstanding, and now they refuse to apologize to each other. As a result they are suffering."
4. You write the roughest draft known to man- I mean very, very rough. Expand a a bit on your imperfect draft, write a couple more scenes you would like to see. They don't need to go together yet, they just need to be on paper. Write out every scene you would like to see play out.
This was Oscar and Logan refusing to play together, Oscar playing alone with Charles, and the ending where they reconcile.
5. Polish up those sections- I know people say to polish at the end and I also do that but making the scenes you wrote look nice will help you feel confident in your work. Include the descriptions, the formatting, the add that bit of sparkle to the dialogue. Figure out the writing style you want to write in and edit all the sections to fit that.
6. Lock in- This is the not so fun part. Pick a free day, get a drink. Now is the time to write everything in between. The boring dialogue, the paragraphs that transition the reader from one scene to another, the scenes that are just lead up to the bigger, funner, more impressive scenes. They don't need to be perfect that just need to be on the page. By the end of it, you will have a some what cohesive plot. Will it be perfect? No. Will you enjoy reading it? Not really. Does it make you want to give up and write something else? Yes, but do not do that.
7. Read it and mull it over for a day- Do not touch the rough draft. Just read it and think about it. Do you like how the plot is? Do you want it funnier? sadder? Do you like how the characters are speaking? Does it feel natural to you? Is it giving what you want it to give? Is it following your Northern star?
8. Change everything you don't like- Delete everything you don't love. If it bothered you enough to stick with you for a day, you can toss it out. You feel like you need permission to delete it? Here's your permission, delete it. I have deleted half of a fic before. Nothing is sacred because none of it is perfect. Toss it out. Replace it something newer. Do you feel better when you replace it? Yes, then that's great. You don't feel better? Put something else in.
9. Do you love to read it?- It is not would other people love to read it. Is it not "is it perfect?" It is do you love to read it, if you were to come across this fic in the middle of the day on AO3. Would you be excited to see it? If the answer is no, repeat step 8 and 9. Do it until the answer is yes or until you cannot change anything else in it.
10. Polish it- Now that you love your work, it is the time to make it easier to read. Separate out your paragraphs, throw it into a grammar checker, format (bold, italicize, etc.). This is where you make it look pretty.
11. Post it- Congratulations! You posted your work on AO3! You did it! Pat yourself on the back and treat yourself to some boba. The work is your baby. You worked hard on it and you should be proud.
FAQ
I wrote all of this and I love it but what if other people don't love it?
They will. None of us writing know for sure if people will love or hate our work before we post it. So until someone outright sends a 500 word count rant about how much they despise it, assume everyone will love it.
What if it isn't perfect?
Many things in this world aren't perfect and we love them. A plushie that was sewn wrong or is missing an ear is still picked up and loved. A puppy missing a leg or an eye is still a beloved part of the family. Writing isn't about being perfect, it is about being human. It is your words, your emotions, and your imagination all on a page and like all humans, you writing will improve as we all do. I don't consider any of my writing perfect and yet, I continue to write because I want to get better and because I love it.
What do you use to write?
You don't need any tools to write but some make it easier for you than others. I recently spent money on Bsun Tuzi switches for my keyboard and it had helped me write a lot quicker but a mechanical keyboard is an investment and a pricey one.
I use Apple Pages to write since I like how clean their format it. I also organize my work on Notion or Obsidian,
I started off writing on Google docs and Word so you don't need the fancy stuff.
I don't know how to write dialogue.
Since I mainly do F1 and Indycar RPF, my biggest recommendations is to listen to Grill the Grid and podcasts. I don't usually be press interviews since I find the drivers to be more stifled and are likely saying what their team wants to say. They tend to be a bit more human on Grill the Grid and podcasts.
I just listen and see what each of them like to talk about, how they talk, etc.
I hope this helps. If you want me to elaborate on something, let me know. Feel free to ask me more questions.

💖🖊️🧠
For the fanfic asks
💖 What do you like most about your own writing?
I write really good dialogue. Snarky, sweet, formal, funny - one of my favorite things to read is well written dialogue, so it's really satisfying to write it well too.
🖊 Post a snippet from a current WIP.
This is several chapters out, in Two Different Worlds (TP Zelink marriage of convenience). Waffles is Link and Zelda's cat.
Link goes to his room and brings out a paper-wrapped box the size of Waffles. He knows this because he found Waffles sitting on it the other day. Zelda apparently notices the size too, because she raises one eyebrow at him.
He loves her eyebrows. Is that weird?
Yeah, it's probably weird.
He holds the box out to her and smiles. "Happy birthday."
Zelda takes the box, setting it on the kitchen counter. He probably should have waited until she was in the living room to give it to her. But it's too late for him to worry much, because Zelda's already undoing the ribbon around the box with careful fingers.
She unwraps the paper in the same methodical way, careful not to tear or crease it, and Link wonders if she always unwraps presents like this. He's impatient for her to open the box and see her reaction.
Zelda finally lifts the lid off the box and reaches inside, lifting out rough, dark blue fabric. She shakes it out, holding it arm's length. Waffles sniffs the hem, as if critiquing Link's gift.
"This dress is pretty, Link, thank you." Her polite smile is fixed in place, but one eyebrow is slightly raised. She's confused.
"I know it's not like your other dresses, but that's on purpose," he hastily explains. "It's a disguise."
"Oh?"
He has her full attention now. "Tonight we'll go out for your birthday, but just as regular people, with Shad and Ashei. We'll all wear disguises, and eat from food carts, and go to a bar or two, and nobody will know you're queen. You won't have to worry about what everyone else thinks."
She doesn't say anything, and Link's worried he overstepped. "Uh, if you want to, that is. I hope the dress fits, Ashei had to guess on the size. We figured it would be less suspicious if she got all our disguises. And, we don't have to go tonight if another night works better. Or at all, if you don't want to." He shuffles his feet. "Not everything has to be political."
Zelda hugs the dress to herself, looking at him with as unguarded an expression as he's ever seen. Her voice trembles. "It sounds so nice. I'm so happy, I could hug you."
"I take hugs." Does he sound too eager? He probably does, but Zelda either doesn't notice or doesn't care. Still holding the dress in one hand, she throws her arms around him.
Of course he reciprocates, he's not a monster.
🧠 What’s an idea you have that you can’t quite call a WIP yet?
I'm planning a TP modern au featuring handyman Link, historian Zelda, and a sentient Snowpeak. It'll probably be crack-ish the way Link Goes Undercover is, but I haven't decided how the sentient manor will work. Maybe it'll try to ship Link and Zelda (hides all the beds so there's only one bed?). Honestly it's probably next in the lineup after Two Different Worlds is done, but I don't have anything written for it yet, just a few vague notes.
Thanks for the ask!

I want to know all the things about your KH AU. Please just tell me things, because I love it.
oh Kingdom Hearts AU, how i have neglected you…. UnU what can I say about KH AU hhhmm (aside from having Raph's ref sheet half done and then getting distracted by a million other things lol) let's see........
Donnie loses his heart at some point. Not because of a Heartless or other enemy, but because he pushes himself too hard and too far.
He does create a Heartless. I don't know what kind of Nobody he leaves behind
The rest of the family do end up finding--and fighting--Donnie's Heartless. How do they know it's Donnie's? Well, aside from Mikey being able to sense Donnie's Heart, buried and smothered in Darkness, there's a certain...Donatello flavor to the way the Heartless looks.
I have not finished designing the Donnie Heartless.
How do they get Donnie back? I dunno. Maybe it involves the piece of his Heart he left with Shelldon.
What's in the half of Donnie's lab that no one ever gets to see? That's a secret. For now.
Casey's Future Leo only had one Keyblade and it wasn't Arc Hope, so Future Leo didn't have portals. In fact, Future Leo's Keyblade didn't seem like it fit him at all. A heavy hitter with a reverse grip didn't really fit his fighting style. But he made it work.
Future Mikey was so powerful that his Keyblade kind of just...floated around him, like an extension of himself. He wielded it kind of like how Sora's Final Form uses Keyblades in KH2.
Casey Junior gets a shock when he sees the present day Keyblades. And an even bigger one when Leo portals. And then the biggest one when Leo gains Synch Blade and dual Keyblades.
I love the design of Before the Fall so damn much. But I don't think it fits Leo very well overall. I think after the Krang, the whole thing is weighing heavily on his Heart and he can't let it go. So while he has a lot more faith in his family (After the Rise), he's struggling with keeping that faith in himself. It's letting doubt and Darkness creep into his Heart and it's going to take some work and character development for him to overcome this. Before the Fall is a little too heavy with Darkness for him.
When Leo DOES find himself in a better place, Before the Fall will change. To what? I haven't decided yet. I just don't think Leo should be forced to carry a burden like that Keyblade. He deserves something better.
April's Keyblade is the only one I haven't figured out a name for yet.
In the silly TMNT AU Competition comic I did, Donnie mentions a "Worlds We Are Banned From" list. This is a real list. They have been forbidden from returning to some worlds for...reasons. The reasons may or may not be because of shit they've done.
Raph and Leo sort of co-lead the group, but Raph still acts as the big brother most of the time, trying to wrangle his siblings into behaving. Except when he's acting out too, and then it's April's job.
April getting a Keyblade was an accident. Donnie accidentally did it when they were little.
What's Draxum doing in this AU? Why did he make the turtles? What are the Foot Clan doing? How does The Shredder work? Fuck if I know. What, you think I planned this or something?
Yes, there is magic that alters their appearance depending on what kind of world they land on. Most of the time, it's like a surface level glamour that only affects the eyes of the inhabitants (this is my headcanon as to why no questions why a duck and a dog are following Sora around 90% of the time, they look human on worlds with humans). There have been a few worlds where they've had to deal with physical transformations. Suffice it to say that those have been an absolute riot for everyone.
And...that's all I got. For now anyway. There is still some stuff I'm working on, but it's sort of taken a back seat to everything else...
#kh rise au#sorry for the late reply it's Big Run weekend and my life has been consumed by Salmonid#sage writes turtles

Daminette Corpse Bride AU
Well AU-ish
Original Post
So we left off in the land of the living and learned that Marinette's groom is hoping She's not found so he doesn't have to get his hands dirty.
In comes in either Luka or Felix (whichever fits your preference) as they have known the Dupain-Cheng's for some time.
For drama purposes, they could have romantic feelings for Marinette or you go the platonic love route where they are there to see if her groom is worthy of their friend. (He's definitely not worthy.)
When they arrive, they hear the news bellower shouting out the most recent news while ringing the bell.
"EXTRA! EXTRA! The only daughter of the Dupain-chengs goes missing after disastrous rehearsal!"
That has them booking it to the bakery where both families are sitting together trying to figure out how to find Marinette.
However, they notice that it her groom seems to have no interest in finding her as he seems to be zoning everything out. That pisses them off.
After introductions are made, they ask the groom to walk with them, in the guise of finding and clues as to where Marinette could have gone.
They reach the church and go around back to see if there's anything there, and that when Luka/Felix pin her groom to the wall.
"What the hell is your problem?! Your bride is missing, and you don't seem the least bit worried! Don't you love her?! Marinette is an amazing girl, and anyone would be lucky to have her as their partner!"
"If I didn't know any better I would say you love my bride. If she's such an amazing girl as you say then why don't you marry her?" - The groom
This pisses off Luka/Felix more, resulting in the groom getting a black eye.
Now this seem entertaining to the groom, and now wants to marry Marinette out of spite. Just to rub it in their faces.
Perhaps marriage does has its benefits.
When they get back to bakery, they fawned over Marinette's groom. Which he resumed them the black eye was caused by his own clumsiness.
Luka/Felix really don't like him.
In the land of the dead:
Marinette is honestly kinda terrified, but at the same time living her best life
Ever since spending time with the Wayne family she's seen a change with herself.
She's more outgoing and relaxed around them. Especially with Damian.
She honestly thinks that perhaps if she met Damian when he was alive, she would choose to marry him instead.
Damian and Marinette spend a lot of time together. He discovers her interests, the things that make her laugh, her fears, and the fire that hides within her heart.
When he told of her of his family's demise. She didn't show sympathy but rather angled that someone would do such a thing to them. Especially after learning all the good they did for their community.
It almost looked like she was about to commit murder.
Just when he thought he couldn't fall for her anymore.
Meanwhile his family are spying from a reasonable distance. Some are even hiding in some of the coffins lying around the area.
They are so invested in this relationship. More than they should be.
"I never seen baby bird fall this hard for someone before" - Dick
"Tell me about it. He didn't even show half of the emotion he's showing her to his ex-fiance" - tim
"She could do better." - Jason
"Shut up, Jason" practically everyone in the batfam
"Fuck you!" - jason
Don't get Jason wrong her loves the "demon spawn," and loves Marinette, bit he's a realist.
He's read the vows, and come on, Damian's a dead dude.
"Till death do us part." Dpnes anyone else remember that line? No? Just him? OK then.
He really hates the fact that they are setting themselves for heartache.
One day, Marinette asks Damian why they haven't moved on yet.
He tells her it is because he knew his family was so excited to see him get married, and when it was about to happen, they all died. He wanted to make them proud, and show them that they didn't need to worry about him no more.
"Eell, if you want I could marry you." - Marinette
"I couldn't ask that of you Marinette," - Damian
"But I want to." - Marinette
Damian swears his long since dead heart skipped a beat .
They announce the wedding and Marinette says it will be upstairs.
Everyone is excited.
Cue the scean where everyone is getting ready for the wedding here.
In the land of the living
Everyone is freaking out the dead is brought back to life.
Then, realise they mean no harm. Live relatives get to spend some time with those who have long since passed.
Luka/Felix see Marinette in her wedding dress in the crowd of the dead and can't help but feel a sense of dread wash over them
Her original groom sees the Wayne family with Marinette and can't help but feel fear and anger.
At the church, the ceremony is being held when Luka/Felix come in when they said speek now or forever hold your peace woth her original groom in tow
* insert shocked wedding guests here*
A dual breaks out between luka/Felix between Damian.
Marinette's original groom hold her back to keep her from interfering. He's high-key hoping that Luka/Felix die
Some how they talk it out during the dual and Damian realizes that luka/Felix what the same thing as him; for Marinette to be happy.
He turns to Marinette, and getting a good look at her original groom, he says their name.
"Hello, Damian. It's funny seeing you and your family here when you should all be 6 feet under." - Marinette's original groom, he says, pulling out a knife and holding it up against Marinette's throat.
It is here we find out the Original Groom and his family worked for the Wayne's and where the ones to poison them.
Turns out the original groom was greedy, always wanting what he couldn't have. Thus, he manipulated his family to help him commit murder and steal the Wayne family fortune.
He fights with the Wayne's + Luka/Felix and is able to hold his own.
He tires and gives Marinette up,
congratulating her on having such great mates.
They all glare at him and watch as he drinks from the chalice that Damian told Marinette only he would drink from.
*insert dying noises here*
Everyone dead minus the the Wayne's and Alfred go to give Marinette's original groom a "warm welcome"
Spoiler: it was not welcoming at all.
Marinette hugs luka/felix as Damian watches.
Damian sees she's in good hands and can't help but feel at peace knowing that.
Turing to him, Marinette asks if he still wants to continue the wedding, but he says no.
Little my little he and his family start to turn into butterfly.
Damian then tells her that he no longer wishes to be married bow that he is happy and at peace. It is then revealed that that is why the rest of his family stayed behind.
All they wanted was to finally see him happy.
Marinette gave him a bone crushing hug which he reciprocated, and one by one the rest of his family joined in.
Marinette cries when they all disappeared, and all that was left between her arms was air.
Luka/Felix held her until she felt better.
After the event her original groom's family was held accountable as accomplices to murder.
The Dupain-Cheng bakery saw an influx of customers and were able to expand their business, with the help of Luka/Felix
Marinette happily stays single, and lives out her wildest dreams.
Maybe even adopts in the future
Alternative ending 1:
Marinette and luka/Felix spend more time together after the event
Slowly fall I'm love
Marinette is still able to live out her dreams with a supportive partner.
They get married
Alternative Ending 2:
Rather than moving on Damian and his family come back to live, able to once more walk amongst the living.
"If I had a nick for every time I died and was brought back to life, I'd have two Nicole. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice," Jason
"The first time doesn't count as it was faked," tim
"I'm alive! How many years has it been? Do you think Barbara and Wally are older than me now or..., " Dick, just happy to be alive and able to contact friends.
Duke and Cass are smiling, happy to be alive, and for Marinette and Damian, finally able to be together.
Damian is hugging Marinette happy he is able to hold her in his arms. Happy that he can be with her
Alfred and Bruce have to interupt them, so they can formally meet Marinette's family, and press charges against her original grooms family.
A year later Marinette is walking aboung the aisle with her father.
Luka/Felix is her best man
Damian feels like he's the luckiest man in the world.
Alternative Ending 3:
The boys don't make it on time to object.
Marinette decides she'd rather be with someone eho makes her happy.
He drinks from the Chalice even though Damian tried to talk her out if it.
" I'd rather be with you in death rather than later marry someone who I can not bring myself to feel the way I do when I am with you." - Marinette
"Are you sure this is what you want?" - Damian
Marinette smiles and drinks from the chalice.
When the boys arrive, those of the dead are long gone, and so is Marinette
She and the Wayne's live happily ever after in the afterlife.
The end.

Kori’s Name
Written: 2/4/22
[Author’s note: over time, I will be posting as much side content/AU content as I can (that doesn’t include spoilers) so I can build up an audience :) Kori is just one of 6 main characters in the Are We Dead Yet? Book and other characters will have their own appearances/stories uploaded as well in time]
"So, I know you're not a huge fan of talking about your past but I'd love to hear how you chose the name Kori," Celia said with eyes full of wonder as she sat on Kori's bed in her apartment.
"It's not that interesting of a story. I've told you before."
"That was just the summarised version though. All you said was you saw a comic book with the name and chose that character. What's the full thing?"
Kori sighed. She knew her friend was never going to let this go and it was better she just told the whole thing to avoid any issues. "Fine I'll tell you but dont get upset if its nauseatingly boring. About 6 months before I met you, I had fully accepted that I wasn't a boy and never had been."
*this may be set in the past but out of respect to Kori as a character and being, we will remain using the correct name and pronouns lest the situation call for it*
12 year old Kori sat along their quite large dinner table where her, her parents, and numerous siblings had decided to gather. Her father was going through their usual dinner where they boasted of their accomplishments for the day. Somehow everyone had done something amazing throughout the day besides her time and time again. But she was so glad to share this new revelation with her family.
"Hanbin, what was your accomplishment today?"
Kori wiped her sweaty hands on her pants. "…I figured out something today."
Now, Kori had known about trans people since she was six from her kindergarten sex ed class. She was fully familiar and understanding of the concept of one changing from one gender to another. "I wanna be a girl."
Silence fell across the table. Apparently they hadn't gotten that memo that that was such a thing. Her family chose to stay closed off to the social political issues that was seeing a resurgence in modern times. Sure, they knew about trans people, but they were either unacknowledged or shamed in their presence.
"What are you talking about, Hanbin?" One of her older brothers roared with laugher. "You don't wanna be a girl just because you like men."
She frowned. She didn't like men. Not in that way really, all of her crushes in the past had been women. "But, I don't like boys. I like girls and I want to be one."
"What would you even go by if you were a girl?" Another brother asked.
"I dont know.. I haven't thought about it that much yet.. but what does it matter? A name isn't everything."
"It might be time for you to switch prescriptions again, you've got that crazy look in your eyes."
Her father, who wouldn't even tease the idea of his son being gay or trans switched topics, "Did you sign up for the swim team like I asked you, Hanbin?"
Kori's brief confidence fell under his harsh tone. "I meant to.. but I forgot.“ she quickly bowed her head and apologised in Korean as her father chose to ignore the other half of their lineage and raised them as if they were pure Korean.
"Then that's your goal for tomorrow," and with that, they moved onto someone else.
But Kori wasn't letting go of this girl thing. Her brother was right. She needed a new name that fit her better. Hanbin was a perfectly respectable name for a Korean boy. But she wasn't a Korean boy, was she? She went to the World Library and went through a trial of ups and downs and lefts and rights trying to find a new name on the public computers. She looked up most popular names, unique names, even Korean names since she didn't hate her heritage that much and maybe her father would come around to it more if it was Korean. She'd played with a few of them, pretending she had friends that could even call her such a thing.
"'Jiah you look so pretty today.' 'Yeah Jiah, you're such a pretty girl.' Hm... I don't know if it sounds good enough. What do you think?" Kori turned to her little siblings she'd been forced to pick up and babysit after school. But then she noticed her little brother was missing. Of course, he was. "Where did Sukchin go, Hyunjae?"
The 5 year old toddler shrugged her shoulders. This was just great. She'd never hear the end of it if anyone found out she'd lost him for even two seconds.
Her brothers' words from the dinner a few nights previous were really bothering her. How was she crazy for seeing that she was a girl? If anything, this was the happiest she'd been in this shit family. She hated her short hair cut and her already quite masculine features that were starting to show thanks to the luxuries of puberty. But girls were so pretty and she longed to be just like the ones she saw on TV and magazine covers. After a bit of search, she found her little brother had wandered into the comic book section messing with some of the comics on the lower shelf. He'd already knocked off quite a few on the floor. Kori crouched down on the ground and started to clean up his mess. The comic books were obviously old but in flawless condition. She saw this beautiful tan woman with a crazy mane of pink hair and glowing green eyes. She was so pretty. And that wasn't her only appearance. She was in so many of these covers, always looking astonishing and beautiful at all times. She was the main character of her life for sure while Kori had always felt like a background character in hers. She flipped through a few of the comics where she remained as stunning as her cover image. She was funny and kind of ditzy but powerful and nice. Everything Kori wanted to be.
Kori ended up checking out as much of their collection as the library would allow and became obsessed with reading the series. Once she'd completed all of what the library had, she reached out to other sources on the internet where she soon discovered there was so much more to this illustrious character. Her family was more than unhinged like Kori's and her love life seemed a bit rocky given how often her boyfriend tended to cheat on her. When she'd finally reached the end of all that the internet had to give, she decided she couldn't just let this character go now that she had finished their story. She wanted to keep a part of her with her at all times. The girls name was Koriander but Kori thought it might disrespectful to take her entire name as her own so she dropped the second half until a few more years to come. Hanbin would be no more and out of the ashes would arise Kori. Kind of cool when you think about it. She did sort of resonate with Raven a bit more than she had intended to but she wanted to separate herself from her bleak depressing past and try to be more open in the future.
"And your accomplishment for the day, Hanbin?"
"I've been thinking about what you guys said a few months ago and.. I finally settled on a name. I wanna go by Kori."
Once again, no one really knew how to respond. It was easy to beat around the bush last time but this was much more direct.
"Is that Korean..?"
"No, but it's still a kicka-- awesome name. I like it. I wanna start going by it. That's my accomplishment: I found my name."
"When are you dropping this act, Hanbin? Do you want attention, is that it? Maybe if you did something noteworthy, you'd get it. But enough with this sickening joke you've been keeping on," Her father said, his words cutting her deep.
Kori blinked away the tears in her eyes. "I'm serious.. I don't know why you can't accept that." She left the dinner table and went up to her room that she had started to decorate more femininely over the past three months. Unfortunately, no one had acknowledged her name. Not at home or in school. She had to obtain her parent's signature for a roster change and that wasn't going to happen. So she just kept being Hanbin.. no one wanted her to be anything but. Even after growing out her hair for months, her gender was being ignored everywhere she went. So much for being more open. Once her family had discovered that this Kori thing wasn't going away, they switched her prescription which only made her feel worse. At least she had her books. She could immerse herself in that and pretend that she was the main character somewhere no matter how mythical it could be.
Kori was pretty much the only one who called herself that. Everyone in this town knew her family so they never called her the correct name. That was until she met some strange girl in the park a few months later.
Celia had been the only one to see Kori for what she was and call her by her correct name. The name she so deeply resonated with and loved. She'd probably never actually tell Celia this was but it was one of the happiest moments in her otherwise shitty life.
If you made it to the end, hello again 🥸 I will be very blunt and say Kori’s name was not always inspired by the comic book character 💀 it was Jiah in the first draft! But I think Kori seeing a beautiful woman and getting obsessed with the comics to the point that she literally adopts the name is so adorable. I knew I just wanted her to have the name Kori in the second draft and looped back around to the why so here it is :)
And if you liked this! Check out:

I would really like to know more about your pmd oc's. Tell me as much about them as you want (if you want to of course). I'd love to hear everything about them.
Ooh thanks a ton for the very open-ended ask! Sadly, most of the ones I have have a greater story behind them that I don't really mind spoiling, but I can at the very least give you some from the archives of [admittedly mostly abandoned] works, including one I'm hoping to get the prologue out sometime this month!
The Other Side [Gti-inspired sort-of-sequel]
Only really one character I want to show off from this one- Ryei [pronounced Re-ay] the Snover, a human-turned-pokemon in a world that now seems to have been almost rewritten to think of humans being reincarnated as a curse, and finds himself now having to balance three things: Finding out the truth of what happened to change the perception of humans so drastically, Joining a Pikachu named Kishi in her exploration team, and the part where he's switching bodies with a Noibat named Daisukei every night, who seems to have been taken in by Outlaws who are really just looking to survive more than anything.
I liked the idea of it, but I couldn't figure out how to format it- how to decide who the perspective would be, the pacing, all that stuff- so it's basically been abandoned. I'll likely continue it if I'm ever hit with a double lightning strike of ideas or something, but for now I won't be working on it.
Curse of a Martyr [EoS AU]
A fairly simple explorers AU I concocted when board on the cruise I posted a few images of, but ended up abandoning because it wasn't that interesting, so here are essentially the culmination of what I had imagined for the [main three] characters:
Shomoto the Treecko - He's just your average Explorers hero treecko, with the one difference being the fact that he hits like a truck [i.e. a level 40], despite apparently still being level 5, and the fact he isn't even sure if he's a human.
Eifos the Zorua - Yeah, just about a normal Explorers partner, except with the insecurities cranked up a few levels thanks to Shomoto's sheer power, and also without Team Skull's harassment [they're scared of Shomoto's sheer stats]
Yuki the human - You know, most Pokemon recognize tales of humans arriving in the form of pokemon to assist with a disaster, not humans arriving on their own to cause a disaster.
Honestly, the only other thing I had settled aside from these characters was a scene during the lake guardians arc in which well... Let's just say a pokeball is involved, Shomoto gets in the way, and the level gap becomes far too apparent.
All to Nothing - A [Mostly] original actual project
This is the only of these with any active work being done, although currently being only halfway ready to release the prologue to the public- so I'll just give a few [admittedly summarized] character bios:
Aster the Ivysaur - Waking up to find herself in a cruel 'game' where the punishment for failure is death, and she has to place her faith in a partner she's never met before... And what's more, the memories she has are all faded at best, and the question of who she is would be one she might never find the answer to... if she doesn't take a risk, and fast.
Chera the Clefairy - When he finds himself thrown into a game meant to test the contetsants in an unknown aspect with memories that don't quite fit together... Including the fact they might have been a human in a past life. And yet, for some reason he can't quite recall... he knows he should never tell anyone that again. ...Or was it something else he shouldn't have said...?
Aside from that there aren't any characters I can A. write good descriptions for, or B. write descriptions with minimal spoilers in them.
But uh that's kind of it for OCs I can show? Sorry if it isn't exactly what you were looking for- the main set I have, I'm already doing lore posts for [the first of which you might have seen- it's here if you haven't], and I don't really want to double dip, and I don't think I'm great at talking about my own stories without spoiling them- I hope this slight middle ground is acceptable to you.

many thoughts head full they're only tangentially graces related but idk where else to vent:
I feel like I should have/did already know this about myself but holy shit I (and many others) am an absolute slut for the redemption-style ship trope, the ol' "I know you and I love you and that's why I can't let you deviate into this darker place I'm stopping you I'm saving you I'm helping you I'm bringing you back." and now I'm gonna ramble abt it because aaaaaaaaaa
I swear I've loved this trope for a while now but I think analyzing graces in part heightened my awareness of it until it hit a breaking point (w an ace attorney video of all things) and I realized that *all* of my favorite ships are this way 😅 Richard and Asbel fit it of course they're like the prototype of the simplest yet effective way to enact this: a pure-hearted protagonist who believes in his friends until the end but is willing to stand against them vs the love interest coerced (and in this case also outright possessed) into very obviously morally wrong actions by the exacerbation of a flaw but ultimately saved when they can put aside their pain and embrace the help that comes with companionship and makes that pain bearable. Paragons that cling on to hope even if it makes them seem naive or causes them to get hurt sometimes along the way are SO sexy and when that hope is rewarded with what they wanted, the redemption of someone who others thought to be beyond salvation, I the audience am also bursting into tears I don't care if it's cliche it's SO GOOD 😭
You know which other popular ship does this? Not hard to figure out I already mentioned Ace Attorney but yeah Phoenix Wright changed his whole career just because he heard that the hero who once stood up for him when no one else would was now a ruthless prosecutor and he had to find the truth of what had happened to his beloved childhood friend Miles Edgeworth (I've made the Richass comparison before and there's even an AA AU fic for graces but I haven't read it yet 😔). The AA fandom eats this gay ship up but how can you not 💜 Edgeworth being stopped in his tracks by this incessant bluffing optimistic man who stood fast against his selfishness (paraphrasing something Edgeworth literally says in JFA 😅) until he starts to question himself (because of some "unnecessary feelings") and eventually actually believes in himself after years of feeling guilt over a crime he thought he committed and shame of letting down the beliefs his supposed victim instilled him (the same beliefs that Phoenix is determined to bring out in him again) and ultimately leaves to figure out what his goal as a prosecutor really is then returns for my all-time favorite case Farewell and Turnabout and now it's Edgeworth's turn to say "I've learned what I stand for and the lengths to which I'd go to maintain it because you set me on this journey, now it seems it's your turn to walk this same path of doubt and discovery but don't worry I'll be right beside you, I'll walk it with you so you don't have fear going as far astray as I once did." Like. ;_;
But holdup I'm not done naming ships 'cause Fluri also does this to an extent. Yuri has to call out Flynn when it becomes apparent his blind trust in his mentor has made him complacent in the very crimes he sought to fix from within, and Flynn retorts by condemning the methods that Yuri has resorted to, the "dirtying of his hands," though I'd argue though that Yuri's double homicide is actually not a deviation from his morality but rather an extreme fulfillment of it. But it's still delightful though the way they have to pull each other back from the pitfalls of their own brands of justice, ie. entrusting too much power in fallable governments vs. appointing yourself the power to decide who gets to live or die. And like the previously mentioned ship, this pair works the best when they combine their different approaches (everything about how they infiltrate Ragou's manor is brilliant) because that way they can keep each other in check. It's almost like finding the balance in enacting justice is the theme of these games or something 😅
Last ship I wanna mention isn't even in canon but I can't resist the opportunity to plug my own (unfinished 😓) sormik fic "Falling Awake" because this is DEFINITELY what I was going for, a Mikleo threading the line of morality out of both despair and desperation to see their dream fulfilled even if the cost is steep, and a Sorey who struggles to reconcile whether this fallen seraph before him really is his friend or whether he can even be saved. A Mikleo who places the decision of whether to cross that line fully in Sorey's hands, trusting him to make the right call even as he begs him to let him do this, and a Sorey who can't let down the dreams of their past by allowing this particular tainted method to be its fulfillment. Everytime I work on it I start weeping even though I'm the one who wrote it 😅
Before I wrap this up though I wanna shoutout some variations of this trope, because it can obviously go a lot of different ways. I know V's rather fond of the more twisted love version in which instead of trying to bring their loved one back from the brink they jump off together, a la Kresnik Bros Bad End Best End 😁 In some ways I almost think this trope is "purer" because rather than trying to restore their beloved to what they think they should be (morally good) they embrace them as they are (amoral but kinda sexy bc of it 😂). True love lets the world burn 💜
Also worth mentioning is the delicious variation wherein the fallen party really was bad from the start, such as being a mole for an evil group, but caught feelings along the way and started wanting to be the kind of person the other seemed to think they already were. Dramatic irony is my fave and there's so much angst you can tease as the character evolves from "haha I'm deceiving them can't wait to betray them" to "shit I'm actually so much happier here with them but our relationship is built on a lie and when it comes out that I am a villain I will be undone and have nowhere to turn except from whence I came but I no longer want to be there." I feel like there's a lot of instances of this trope but the one that came to my mind first was Shadowhand Essek from Critical Role, there's the excellent Shadowgast ship of course but I like that he has this dynamic with the whole party who have been nothing but kind to him and inspire him to want a better life despite what he's done and what he's still trapped in.
Anyway, if anyone read this far first of all thank you 💜💜💜 I really have just been stuck in fandom ramble analysis mode for the past few days it's kinda insufferable but at least tumblr blogs are a good outlet for it 😅 And secondly uhhh if any of my impassioned ship/trope descriptions remind you of a particular media/ship lmk (I feel like Soriku might fit this but I never got that far into the series). I can't say I'll get to anything right away but if it's got this kinda vibe that's like catnip to me I'll happily stash the recommendation away for a future obsession someday 😅
#dolphin noises#mild spoilers for graces vespy AA and the mighty nein 😅 i tried to be pretty vague but some endings/twists are discussed here#I don't know why I wrote this I just can't shut my brain off 😩 give it two weeks I'll be depressed again but that's how mental illness be#this genre has everything. redemption arcs falling imagery dramatic irony paragons guilt complexes coercion angst etc#sorry for the lack of punctuation in many places ramble mode does not believe in them 😅 neither do tumblr tags#wait what do you mean it's been 3 hours

can you tell me more abt ur turtles of you can?
Like wut r the turtles pronouns? Do they met April and if so how old is she? How old are the turtles? Is splinter present?
Feel free to answer no pressure! I love listening to ppl info dump 😋
Well, I have lots so say (also sorry for not responding earlier and sorry if there is misspelling or some sentences don't make sense). I'm still working on making all the designs so sorry if everything isnt really completed. Also this isn't really shown in the drawing I posted but their hands are sort of like Mona Lisa's in 2012.
Leo is 17, 6'2, and her pronouns are she/him, and she is trans fem (later on in the story which YES I CHANGED THIS bc it fits better for her), and she is based of a red-eared slider turtle.
Raph is 18, 6'6, he/him, bi, and he is based off of a alligator snapping turtle.
Donnie is 16, 5'11, they/them, and they are based off of a spiny softshell turtle. (They are also autistic)
Mikey is 15, 6'3, any pronouns, pan, and he is based off a mix of a ornate box turtle and a normal box turtle. (He also has ADHD)
I also have made my own version of Venus/jennika/Kirby and her name is Artimisa. (I don't really have much for her yet) All I have figured out for her is that she is 16, 6'2, and her pronouns are she/her.
Splinter is present but I haven't really made a design but I have some ideas in mind that I might draw soon.
I have made an idea for April and Casey. For April she would be 20-21, 5'4 (which is apparently the average height for women in the US), her pronouns are she/they, and she is lesbian. The turtles do meet April and I have a little idea how.
So April works at TCRI as a side job while she is at college and when she was walking home she accidentally discovered the turtles while they are trying to go back into the sewers. Donnie reacts by knocking her out (with brick or something idk) and they have to make her she doesn't tell anybody else about them so they bring her down into the sewers with them. That's all I have for that.
This April sketch was from a while ago and it's a pretty rough sketch so it's not that good 😭. I will draw an actually good sketch with colour soon for her and Casey.
I'm also thinking of names for my version/AU and my favorite idea is "Project Renaissance" which does need some explaining of their back story so I'm gonna do that as well.
TCRI would have little underground projects that were requested by the government and the general public didn't know about. One of these projects was trying to make mutate animals into anthropomorphic versions, the projects name being "project Renaissance" with the test subjects being named after Renaissance artists. Splinter is just one of the lab rats that the scientist name and Hamato Yoshi is one of the scientists working for TCRI on this project (I'm still figuring out the rest of that).
If you want to know more you can ask 😁
Also if your wondering these are their heights side by side

AOT OC Show and Tell Days - Day 1: basic introductions
Name: Evelyn Marianne Auroré
Gender: Female
Age in setting: not thought out yet since I'm contemplating if to age up the characters for the storyline actually considering I'm finally laying it out (most likely yes) but I'm not sure on how many years. 🤧
Suggestions welcome 😵💫
Bold all of the following that apply to your OC!
Context: Canon Setting | Modern AU | Other AU
What niche does your OC serve for you?:
Self-insert | Completely original character | Self-shipping (in the projecting sense xD) | Roleplaying | Writing fics | Creating art | Only the scenarios and adventures that I imagine inside my head and share with no one! get fucked I ain't creating shit | Something else
A Bit More:
If your character is in the AOT canon setting, what's their allegiance?
Survey Corps | Military Police | Marleyan | Warriors | etc.
Do you ship your character with a canon character? If so, who?
She understands my Reiner love almost better than I do oml 🤧🤧🤧
Do you have any cute art or picrews of them together? Let's see one:
Not pictured is a light brushing with a surprising delicacy of her bangs to the side as he bends a bit to kiss her tenderly on the forehead no I totally didn't come up with this while typing wdym 🤭🤧(◡ ω ◡)✨✨✨
Obligatory fake screencap to give her a clearer image in my head for the scenarios since my choice to redesign her came during lasting artblock aofjakkfkakf
I'm planning to make another one for WIT's style based on something I'll mention later in the post!😆😆
For most part here's a rought draft . But also considering her design is for s4 I might create a special pre-timeskip look for that since it's set there.
Character Creation:
How long have you actively been developing your OC?:
As an Aot oc? March 2022. As an overall character? … took a good while since August 2019, jumped between… *counts fingers* 5 different fanbases, nothing came of any of these, all her ships were one dimensional unconvincing shallow and dull. Yet when I tried here, a wave of inspiration hit me like a comet D: 💫
Her hair was fucking blue aodjqidjakdjajkw
Is there any significance behind your OCs name?:
Glad you asked! :D I have this reaching and overextensive research for the meaning & how it ties to the whole character story&arc
Evelyn (driven from Eve,if I added the meta behind this it'd reach the tumblr word limit if there is any) : desired (ahhh ahaah…(〒﹏〒). Also has some fairytale motif not as deep but alfjakdka.) , life (self explanatory :"). )
Marianne: (driven from Maria, also actually what my own name & my 2nd favourite oc's name is driven from🤭)- star, grace. I mostly only added it after making her an aot oc, but a middle name would be a fancy addition right? :D😆😆
Auroré - driven from aurora meaning dawn(& familial ties with another oc of mine themed after Northern lights).
Plus.... fitting for her hair color.! :D
Combine her first and last name and it's sounding like: life's (graceful) dawn.
Which has a coincidental similarly to the last episode of s4 part 2 (the dawn of humanity)
If your OCs appearance is based on yours, do they have any different features?:
No not really, I just unironically want this look and think it's gorgeous. Blood-red hair and everything (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧
Is there anything you want to try doing with your OC that you haven't yet? (ex RPing, art, fics, etc):
I'm actually finally writing the full first meeting oneshot nowadays! As of now it was just brain-dump scenarios connecting (somehow that alone ended up being 2k wth) xD. I've also been more openly brainstorming about it so I'm opening up to questions!:D
Also on an art note, I actually kept on the side a DIY nendoroid figure I'm planning to turn into her 😆😆😆
For him <3

Current WIPs - September 2023
I last did one of these in March, this year, and truthfully, not an awful lot has changed except the word counts on each fic. Although I don't think I shared those last time. I probably won't this time either because I haven't figured out the totals - some fics are spread across multiple files. Whatever I call these WIPs here, is probably just a working title. Even if I know what I'm gonna call the piece, I don't think I'm gonna share that yet. I think I'll talk about the bigger files in a little more detail and maybe briefly mention the smaller ideas as I remember them. So, if you're interested in what I'm working on, this is the post for you!
I have three VampireAUs. Not including my first attempt at writing one. I don't think I'll ever work on that again but, never say never. I've kinda developed my own sorta vampire rules that I use across all three of these. Nothing too out of the box but, I try to be consistent with my subjects. ~ Vampire AU the First
In which Lux, Mikey and Gerard are vampires. Mikey has moved with the times and Gerard’s a little stuck in the past. Lux was a modern day Human until she was recently turned and Shelly is a Human.
This is the AU in which my OTPtober 2022 - Insecurity piece is set. I haven't touched this one for some time, but it makes me 🥰 - probably because of the old fashioned ness. ~ Reverse!Vampire AU
In which Shelly is our Vampire, Mercy is her Human familiar and Gerard is a struggling artist.
I've been working on this one quite a lot recently. I enjoy this one. Maybe it's the lore I'm playing with, maybe it's the dynamic. I don't know.
~ VampireAU/Fic the Third
Gerard is our Vampire, Shelly is our Human, and he's looking for a snack.
Yeah, I'm enjoying this one too. Again, I think it's the dynamic. It's not quite as simple as I've written up there, but that's okay, I can't tell you everything. I don't think this is going to get as long as my other two, I hope to have this finished to post at some point. Hopefully before Halloween! I think I even have a title too. I have VAU4 (VampireAU4) too - that's not very long, and I think I wanna rewrite what I've done to change the tone of it. I don't have enough details to really say much more about it. I ALSO have something labelled as Vampires&Werewolves AU, which... Seems very Twilight, putting the two creatures against each other with a Human in the middle, but... Also, not Twilight because there's no fucking sparkling. What else is there? OH! How could I forget!!! ~ The "Normal" AU
The story of Shelly in the MCR-U basically. Anything labelled as this is in the same timeline/universe as The Origin Story.
This is spread across... Four??? Maybe five (I'm not sure, some of them have subtitles - like the Origin Story was a subtitle of The Normal AU) additional files, not including said Origin Story. I don't know if I'll ever get around to posting everything I write for this, or if I'll just post the Big Milestones. I mean, there's a lot of little scenarios in those files. A lot of words. But I do plan on getting around to the Milestones at some point. But of course it's massive - this spans the entirety of Shelly's career with MyChem. From when she meets them (as you've read) to pretty much present day, almost. ~ The Danger Days fic aka The Sandbox Fic
A... Can you call it a spin off? of my Wife's Danger Days fic, picking up a little after where that left off so I could throw Shelly into that world.
I think I started this just before or during writing Call Me Babe For The Weekend, as a side project, and as a "what if?" kinda deal. Though I think I only wrote some sorta ending to that... Last year? The file for this thing is absolutely huge and I'm a little alarmed by it. I have to figure out how I'm going to present this, because I don't think it fits your stereotypical story format. It would fit an episode format a bit better, really. I don't know, thoughts need to be thunk. ~ The Stripper Fic Not my first Stripper AU, actually. The first is handwritten in, I think it's five notebooks on the shelf behind my desk. That one is, I think over 100k. I don't remember, I haven't looked at the word count totals for some time. Anyway! There's a little more to this one than just... Gerard being a stripper. I took inspiration from something else I read once. Haven't touched this one in a while either.
~ The Succubus Fic
In which Shelly is a succubus and Gerard is her... Victim?
This one is labelled as a "fic" instead of an AU because I do not want it to get as long as some of my other files. It hasn't reached 20k yet so there's a chance I can kinda wrap it up under 30k. Maybe I can do additional chapters later on or whatever but... I don't know.
~ The CollegeAU - also known as the PolyCollegeAU
“He could share us. We could share him.” He watched her raise an eyebrow. “If he’s into me too. Or, if not, and he’s willing, we could share you?”
Oh man, this started out as me attempting to write a threesome, BEFORE the Birthday Fic happened. It ended up in timeout for a long time because Frank wouldn't behave, thus making the inevitable choice between the two really hard! And then, along comes my wonderful wife and is all OKAY BUT WHAT IF and boom, it came out of time out and gained... A lot of words. (Speaking of the Birthday Fic - I have a half finished deleted scene from that kicking around too.)
~ It's A Compliment I Swear I wrote the ending for this last year, July 2022. It's... 😬 Yeah. I might get in trouble for that ending. I just have to get to that point. I have an odd scene in a different file, and a few notes in that file too, but I need to sit down and sorta think about it some more. What else do we have? A HighSchoolAU, something I've dubbed the ChildhoodFriendsAU - which is kinda like the HighSchoolAU but... Happier in aspects. I have some blurbs for ExchangeStudentAUs - both sides (ie; in which Shelly is one, and in which Gerard is one - that second one is fun because I get to play with linguistics/language differences.) I have something labelled The MultiVerse which is... If I can get my act together, might be Shelly's birthday gift next year. Unless she gives me other ideas. I also have a file of blurbs/discussion about "What if everyone was a teacher?" - I don't think that'll get a lot of screentime, but it was something to distract me, something to think about and be silly about for a bit. The New AU is similar to that, I think. Though I might do something with it one day because it's fun. The GoogleDoc is only like, 5k so there's not a lot to talk about currently. It's a bit different with some similar to that, I think. Though I might do something with it one day because it's fun. The GoogleDoc is only like, 5k so there's not a lot to talk about currently. It's a bit different with some similar, familiar aspects but hey, it's still fun.
The Half Baked Idea is about 10k and has more of a series of plot points. It's a little ✨mystical✨ and supernatural, I think I shared some lines from it a few months ago, but I can't remember off of the top of my head. Again, a bit different but because there still isn't that much of it, I don't have more to say. The last thing is a file called What If? and that is just waiting to be fleshed out and written up. I believe that's kinda a spin off of something I've already written, and I might take that outline and write it properly over NaNoWriMo this year. I'm not sure about that yet though. I think that's it, actually. There might be a file here and there with words in that I haven't touched for Quite Some Time, but these are the main files and ideas I skip between here and there.

SCREAMING AT YOUR WYLLSTARION CAZADOR-TADPOLED AU. THE POSSIBILITIES. I AM TERRIFIED AND TRANSFIXED. zero zero pressure to write it but just your snipped has sent my mind spinning - I would love to hear any other headcanons you thought of for it. all i can think of is how cazador could possible hide a. the vampirism literally we joke about astarion being a walking poster boy but everything cazador says basically has the tag ‘said the evil vampire’
b. his massive ego - if he’s weakened like everyone else, i think almost everyone else in the party could destroy him in sparring, and on top of laezel absolutely calling him weak i wonder if he would be able to prevent himself from throwing a massive and violent fit that presumably would end with casualties
c. his relationship with astarion?? like I always wondered if astarion behaved wildly different around cazador than other people, on top of the fact that he’s never had the respite of being away from him like he has in the game - my imagining even based on your excerpt (which is wonderfully and vscerally written i could feel the dread :’)) is that he would be in full freeze or fawn mode but I don’t know how he would think about trying to make himself valuable to the party without cazador choosing for him - which i can guess would go just about one way :( plus wyll and shadowheart certainly have high enough wis to vibe check that dynamic and I cannot imagine they would come away with any assessment but a sea of red flags.
also really interested to see how this would interact with other characters’ problems - wyll’s evolving perspective on ‘who is a monster’ and being able to discern between people who seem monstrous vs people who are, especially before and after karlach would be really interesting to explore if he weren’t immediately able to clock what’s going on. and god. i don’t know whether cazador meeting mizora would be the best thing or the worst thing, i feel like they could do such awful things together but at the same time are both too much of an egotistical lunatic obsessed with power to play nice with each other. maybe they’ll kill each other. fingers crossed.
anyway apologies for the massive rant, I just think it’s such a brilliant idea and would definitely read it if you decided to write it!! again no pressure at all, even rotating the concept in my mind is a gift that I thank you for :) have a great day!
AHHHHHHHH thank you so much, anon!!! :') I haven't posted fanfiction in years, so the love this bonkers au has gotten has blown me away. I've been stewing on this idea for a while now, and I don't want to give too much away, as I would like to continue this fic, BUT…let’s scheme just a little, because this au has also had me frothing at the mouth.
In the game, Astarion's goal is to ensure his safety/place in the group. But with Cazador in the picture, everything shifts to the goal of Keeping Cazador Happy. So, yeah, I think he’d act VERY different. Sort of like how he is in the romance scene at the goblin party, where he’s clearly terrified and cagey with Tav, but trying to hide it. I also don't think that Astarion would realize right away that Cazador can't compel him. He'd keep following Cazador's orders because that's what he Has To Do. Cazador, of course, would insist that Astarion use his "skillset" to secure their position in the group. And who better to trap under his thumb than Wyll Ravengard, son of the Grand Duke? (But once Astarion figures out that he is free of the compulsions...well. Who better to sic on his Master than the Blade of Frontiers? That is, if he can persuade the Blade not to target Astarion as well.)
Cazador, for his part, would be eager to return to Baldur's Gate and complete his Ascension asap, but he finds himself infected, debuffed, and stranded in a place where he suddenly has no authority. His ego will take a massive bruising and need an outlet of some kind to make him feel more in control... (cue very bad things for Astarion).
That being said, Cazador does have some points in his favor:
Cazador is not only a vampire lord, with all the powers that entails, but also a powerful mage. So, even debuffed, he's still got some tricks up his sleeves.
Cazador is a patriar in Baldur's Gate. He knows how to play politics and manipulate people's desires to get what he wants. He could play the rich lord, kidnapped along with his "son" (a ploy that might be even more successful with an ally...perhaps a certain Tav?).
Several of the tadfools, like Shadowheart, are quite perceptive--but they also have their own secrets to distract them. There is one person I personally don't think Cazador could ever fool, and that's Karlach. After ten years surrounded by devils, she'd take one whiff and smell the bastard on him. But Wyll would likely catch some bad vibes as well. If he were to discover their vampirism, he'd be faced with the difficult decision of what to do with Astarion: can he justify killing a spawn to weaken a vampire lord, who is decidedly the much greater threat? What makes one monster more monstrous than another? Who is he to make that decision? (*softly chanting* angst angst angst)
The tadpoles add an interesting dimension. On one hand, I think, being the egoist that Cazador is, and having once been a spawn himself, he would HATE having other voices in his head. On the other, Cazador is shrewd, power-hungry, and knows how to play the long-game. He'd want to figure out how the tadpoles work, and luckily for him, he has an obedient spawn to use as his guinea pig (see chapter 2...).
No matter how it shakes out, Astarion is going to be having a Bad Time, at least for a while.
#thank you anon for indulging me <3#this au has been rotating in my mind like a microwave dinner for WEEKS#and talking about it has only made me want to write it more#i do have a pretty good outline written#i just won't have much free time to work on it until july#so we'll see what happens#answered asks#cazador tadpoled au

@fizzarollitm asked: ⭐ ( for @hlylight & here )
Send me a ⭐ and I’ll tell you muses I want to throw your way! // Pretty much always accepting, tbh!
Oh, I have so many thoughts and ideas. Both for Fizz and everyone else.
Starting with Fizz!
There's the obvious, of course, with Fizz and Ozzie. Basically give me all of the things. I want to write their first meeting, falling in love, figuring out how they're gonna make things work, how they fit together (emotionally, physically, literally anything), Ozzie realizing oh holy shit this is different from anything I've ever experienced and I don't ever want to be without this person, and beyond. All the missing scenes we haven't gotten, and figuring things out in the future. Basically, just give me all the Fizzarozzie.
I know you've got your Hazbin verse, so it could be fun to throw any of my Hazbin characters at Fizz! He and Angel would probably bond, like we've talked about at least a little bit, I would have to figure Husk out but I could manage that, Lucifer would probably say something about Looloo Land, and then he'd appreciate Fizz for his craft, and probably make him a duck.
For Moxxie, there are actually a few different possibilities, both based in canon and potentially pre-canon (and of course, the cinematic AUniverse). So Moxxie was working for his dad before I.M.P., as we know, in Greed. Which means he could potentially run into Fizz somewhere. Do I have more than that off the top of my head? Not right this second, but there are possibilities! And then, more based in canon, Blitz could send Moxx to help Fizz out with something, or Moxx could volunteer or what have you. Lots of potential! And that is just expanded on in the AU. ^^ They could get along, I think!
For Tex, if Fizz and Verosika know one another, there's an easy connection there. He could even help bodyguard at some point if needed. Or we can come up with other things if you want Tex. ^^ Otherwise, we have plenty of other options.
And down to Stolas (of my canon characters)! We've already talked about a few things with him, and just give me all the things. I want them to talk and bond and become friends (especially in the circus AU, along with everything we've talked about for that. ^^). Stolas post-divorce is already exploring his own style since he can, and Fizz can help with that and a lot of other things, honestly. And they can just chat and bond over both having a lot of trauma. Stolas is very good at holding space for other people.
Omg, please, Fizz and Echo could be such interesting friends, potentially. Their main job is gathering information, so they could easily be working for Fizz or bringing Fizz info on Ozzie's behalf. Echo tends to sort of mirror people's energy, since they're a shapeshifter, so it's always interesting if/when people are able to sort of see past that mask, which it feels like Fizz would be able to do.
And now that I've gone overboard, onto hlylight!
For Lilith: The obvious options are Charlie and Lucifer. Exploring those dynamics is going to be so interesting. Charlie looks up to her mom so much and is so afraid of letting her down, of disappointing her. And exploring where and how things went with Lucifer and Lilith is such a fascinating dynamic, really. And you know I will throw pretty much anyone your way. Though Cain would also be interesting to interact with Lilith, actually. First woman, firstborn son? Having them interact could be fun.
For Sera: Pre-fall Lucifer!! I love exploring what he was like as an angel, especially as he interacts with other angels. And even post-fall, too! There's so much to explore and figure out, and I think that would be excellent. Charlie could interact with her too, to some extent. Oh, oh, and Cain. If she ever went to earth, she could potentially interact with him, which could be really fun to explore. Also pre-fall Ozzie!! There are so many delightful possibilities, and I want to expand and explore all of the things and build lore.
For Angel: *grabby hands* All the things! I wanna throw everyone at him: Charlie, Husk, Lucifer. I could probably also come up with ideas for Stolas, Moxxie, and Ozzie, at the very least. I already have some thoughts, actually, SO YES. Give me all of the things and let me love him.
Bel: I need to get off my butt and reply to the stuff with Stolas, 'cause I'm very much looking forward to those threads. ^^ Obviously, I want things with Lucifer and Ozzie, both pre- and post-fall. Figuring out their dynamic, how it changes, how it's the same, all of it. Echo again is someone that I can kind of throw in anywhere, so if Bel needs information on anything that she can't find on her own, call your local shapeshifter.
Husk: More of all of the things. Have him interact with Angel, with Charlie, Lucifer. I can figure out ways to throw other people at him, too. ^^ Echo is always good for throwing at people as previously mentioned, since they can blend in and all that jazz. One of my other OCs is a club musician, so he could potentially have played in Husk's club/casino back when he was an overlord and such. Lots of possibilities!
So these are just kind of off the top of my head, but if you have an idea, I am always down to throw pretty much anyone your way all the time.

TURN THE NIGHT AROUND| PARK JIMIN
Pairings: Jimin x gn reader! Non-idol au.
Warnings: Language, cheating, food waste, stranger danger, public embarrassment
Word Count: 2.6K
•••••••••••••
"You're breaking up with me?"
Right inside the restaurant, you sat across from each other. You felt as if you dressed almost too nice for the occasion.
"I just think it's best. I mean- I'm about to be a defense attorney. You're working in an office building," he appointed. "Besides, your favorite movie is Twilight. Mine is X-men. They don't even correlate."
Your brushed out brows frowned. How can movie likes even be included right bow.
"What do movies have to do with how I feel about you and our relationship."
"Everything. We're just not meant to be, Y/n. I'm sorry."
The largest scoff you think you have ever exposed came out of your system. Followed by rolling your eyes.
"You know, you weren't saying this two weeks ago when you were at my house begging to stay the night with me. All night you sat there soothing me and telling me we were soulmates."
"Well, in the past two weeks, things have changed."
Your eyes then widened. "What's changed? Me working? I gotta make a living somehow, Chan."
You both what the true answer behind this was. You weren't stupid. And he wasn't a good topic avoider.
"Just come out with it."
Chan chuckled to ease the fear boiling in his stomach. "I found someone else. Someone who can fit my every day needs."
You had never been so sarcastically shocked. Another person? Where did she come from? What's she like? What does she have that you haven't already gotten or given.
Although if the last question could be answered, it'd be appreciated.
"So, you've been with someone else behind my back. This whole time."
"Not technically."
"Yes. You have. What the hell?"
"Y/n, you're making this hard."
"Is it not suppose to be? Jeez, how much of a jerk can you really be."
"Name calling isn't needed," he chuckled again. Feeling a hinge of regret doing it in the scenery he chose. Maybe he had thought doing it in a public area would be easier because he felt you wouldn't make a scene. Not wanting to feel embarrassed.
But, boy, was he wrong.
"Can you just tone it down a bit?"
"Tone it down? You want me to turn it down?"
"That would be great."
You rubbed your tongue against the inside of your cheek, scoffing at the absolute nonsense you were being forced to hear for the past few minutes. The anger now boiling hotter inside of you instead. So mad at him and at yourself for getting your hopes up about the night going well.
So, instead of giving into him completely, you stood.
"Well, since you asked so nicely..."
You reached over the circled table that held the food, drinks, napkins, and silverware.
But, out of all those things, you picked up your bowl of warm Ramen. Before the asshole could turn back and stop you, the whole dish of noodles was tossed right onto his figure.
The soup soaking his dress shirt. The noodle tangling in his hair and his lap. You can seem the steam generating off him.
People around them gasped. Totally shocked to see such misbehaving actions in such a nice place.
"What the hell, Y/n?"
"Fuck you! You can have your preppy lawyer girlfriend and stupid test court cases. Which I hope you fail by the way. And I sure as help hope you burn in hell."
Leaving it at that, you left the restaurant. Grabbing your things to carry with you.
Your chest felt empty. Mind was racing along with your heart. The breeze outside didn't even care to help you cool down from the humidity indoors.
You walked to the window off the side, sitting on the ledge of a cement wall. You were glad you finally sat down. Not sure how much longer you could take it with your anxiety and painful ass heels.
Tears were forming. A few actually succeeding to fall. Your nose runny from the bruning effect that took action from you becoming tearful.
How had you actually been so blind to see it all along? Had work actually been so distracting that you didn't even notice he had being betraying you?
You were disappointed. In yourself mainly. Felt as if it was your fault because you worked so much. So much that he had time to find someone else. How pathetic you felt sitting here crying over that asshole.
You wiped your tears. Using the sleeves of your jacket to clear any stains or wetness the dripped it puddles in your lap.
"'Scuse me-"
A unknown presence had joined themself into your space. Bending slightly to make sure you could actually hear whatever it is they were planning to say. The cologne radiating off their body was strong.
Not at all like what Chan wears. You lifted your head, giving them your full attention by making eye contact to the body.
"Sorry to bother you, but you don't happen to have a lighter do you?"
You were taking quite a second to process. Too mesmerized by those beautiful eyes of the guy who had approached you.
His dark haired mullet like hairstyle so memorizing.
Along with the mini smile he held. His teeth were pearly white. He seemed so full of joy it made you almost wanna smile just for the hell of it.
You felt ridiculous staring at him in such a way.
"Oh- sorry."
You sniffle, reaching into your pocket to pull out a green lighter you kept for other uses besides smoking. Like candle or survival reasons.
"Thank you," he muttered. "I'll be right back."
The guy walked to the other side of the dark brick designed street. He seemed to have at least six friends standing in front of two large black suv's. One with LED lights. The other with none, but it did have silver trim to the doors.
As you scanned each of the members of the friend group, your phone buzzed in your hand. You turned the screen on. Using your finger print to unlock the device.
A message notification being the most recent announcement.
Him❤
I'm sorry it ended like this.
read
Him❤
I hope you got home safely.
read
Him❤
I'll have a friend come get my things tomorrow afternoon from your place. Please don't burn them!
read
You rolled her eyes growling at the messages he had the nerve to sense. Burn them? I'll do worse than burning them. "You dick."
"I'm sorry?"
You almost jumped at the same voiced that called to you just moments ago. Him standing next to you again. You sighed. He was holding out your lighter. Sending a smile, taking it back.
"Oh- thank you. And that wasn't directed towards you, by the way. It's for someone else."
He smiled. "Can I ask who then?"
"My asshole of a ex who just dumped me, and then had to audacity to text me and ask me not to burn his belongings."
The brunette chuckled. "Oh, damn."
"I know right. Such a douchebag. Maybe I should burn his things. And then drive to the pacific ocean and throw them in it. That's what he gets for cheating on me."
"That's crazy."
You looked at the guy. His hands in his pockets. "Too much?"
"Oh! No, you do you. I just meant, he must be real crazy to cheat on someone as beautiful as you. Well- someone as psycho as you, but beautiful."
The biggest blush grew on your cheeks as the stranger you had just met a couple minutes ago had complimented you. Thank God it was dark outside. He had your back in the situation. Telling you to do you as you came up with revenge scenarios.
Choosing to not show much since you did just get dumped, you tilted your head. "Thanks."
He held a hand out. "I'm Jimin."
You held his hand, passing a shake. "I'm Y/n."
"So, Y/n, what's so wrong with you that this guy thinks it's okay to cheat?"
"I don't know. He says I don't fit him. Because he's a law student and i'm...well I'm me. Working in a office building 24/7. Trying to fend for myself. He says the other girl fits him so I assume she's also a law student."
He scratched his nape. "Wait so- he's going around being unloyal because you're trying to make a living with what you have?"
You nodded. "Pretty much."
"That's so stupid."
"Tell me about. Not to mention, I get the feeling he brought me to a public place to break up so I wouldn't cause a scene."
Jimin put his hands together as if he was praying or making a wish. "Please, tell me you made a scene. Tell me that, and make me proud."
"Oh I poured my food on him and his 300 dollar dress shirt. I really hope it stains."
"That's awesome. You're freaking awesome."
Normally you would feel bad, but after he decided to show HIS true colors, where's the harm for her to do so. You get what you give. Emotionally and physically said.
"It's normal to not feel bad, right?"
"Why feel bad? He brought it on himself. And even though, I barely know you, I can tell, he's gonna regret it sooner or later. And guess what, he won't get you back because now you see who he truly is. You can see what will come out again if he was ever around again. You'll be strong. Just like tomorrow. You'll have the chance to slam the door in the face like he did to you tonight."
You pursed your lips before slightly smiling. "You really think so?"
"I know so. He didn't deserve you."
Feeling the huge wave of confidence and relief wash over you like you were sitting at the edge of the water at the beach. Waves coming in hot.
This night started out as a complete mess just by one stupid ex who played you out like a total idiot, and yet, a total stranger had somehow turned it all around for you. With just simple words.
All of the six friends you counted out had walked over to the duo. One wrapping an arm around Jimin's shoulder. He was much taller.
"Jimin, you rea- oh hi!"
You waved to the tall figure with platinum blonde hair and very clear dimples that made his smile even prettier. Same to the rest who had passed the favor. "Hello."
"I'm Namjoon. That's Taehyung, Yoongi, Jungkook, Hobi, and Jin."
"Y/n. Nice to meet you all."
Jimin turned to the guys. "Y/n's boyfriend just dumped them. Dude's an asshole.
One with a black mid length hair and a eyebrow piercing had risen eyebrows. "Really?"
You nodded.
"Sorry."
"It's okay. Just wasn't meant to be."
Jimin smiled. Namjoon turning to the brunette. "Everybody's already there. And they're waiting on us."
"OK! Okay! We can go."
Namjoon, threw a excited fist into the hair, causing you to giggle in your spot on the ledge. He turned to you, pointing with his finger as if he was gonna call you out.
"Hey Y/n, you've had a bad night. Wanna join us."
Just as you were about to quickly deny,, the guy that was smoking earlier nodded. "You should. Really."
"What is it?"
"My friends and I are about to head to a club to drink and dance. Karaoke game and stuff. We do it every Friday when we don't have a work schedule. It's fun. You should come with."
"No, no. I don't wanna intrude on your guys' night."
"You're not! And it's not even a guy night. Tons of cool people will be there. Join us!" The one Namjoon had introduced as Hobi spoke out.
You contemplated. Giving it much thought. Especially since they had just met. But somehow, even being new meters, you felt a safe connection to the individual. And his friend was very welcoming. Gentle.
"If you don't join us, there's a chance Jimin will be a buzz kill. So we beg, please come. And there'll be a bunch of handsome men, like me obviously, there to make you feel better."
Jimin smacked his friend who had chuckled while almost flying into a few of them. He turned held a hand out once again in front of you. "What do you say?"
You let out a joyful huff before giving into the boy you had grown so fond of. Placing your hand in his soft and small ones. "Fine."
They all cheered. Heading towards the trucks, Four gathered in one and four in the other. Jimin held your hand all the way to vehicle and sat with you in the back.
At some apologizing for the physicality, but you assured him it was totally okay.
"This place is huge."
"Yeah, it's popular in the area," Jimin responds back into your ear. The music too loud for you to speak farther in distance. His breath tickled your neck.
"Wanna drink?"
You nodded. Following him to the bar. You sat in the wooden stools that had red cushions tied to the corners.
"2 cokes please," he orders to the bartender. You were to busy scanning the ceiling too even realize his was watching you closely. Cheek resting on his hand.
"What?"
He shook his head. "Nothing."
"What is it?" you asks again.
"I'm just...trynna figure out how anyone would ever hurt someone so special like you."
There goes the deep clushing again. No thanks to white bar lights reflecting on your face. He can definitely see how flustered you are.
"You've known me for an hour."
"And I already feel like I know so much."
The drinks land in front of you. The brunette pushing one over to you. You recieve it with a smile. To ease the tension, you choose to pass on an unintentional joke.
"Careful, Jimin. You keep talking like that I might get the wrong idea and assume you're flirting with me."
You didn't realize exactly what you said until it came out. Expecting a speed denial, instead you receive a chuckle. Jimin's eyes panning to his glass.
His fingers grip the straw and twirl the red straw around. Ice clinking against the cup.
"I must be sending out the right signals then," he said just loud enough for you to hear.
You cough.
Jimins lays his hand on your back. Patting it gently. "You okay? I didn't mean to scare you."
You wave. "You- you didn't. Just surprised me."
He chuckled again. Rubbing shapes against your covered spine instead of patting. "Is your night better?"
"Much."
The now close proximity between you too became smaller and smaller the more he moved closer to you. Part of you wanted to run, screaming that you just met him. You'll get fooled again.
As for the other part, it's telling you to just do you. Nothing's ever permanent. Just enjoy the night. You deserved it.
"Y/n," he called, "Can I ask for a favor in return?"
You hesitated before nodding slightly. Almost to softly that it didn't even seem like a reply.
His soft handle landed on your burning cheek. Rubbing his thumb over your cheek bone. Closer. Closer.
He was gonna kiss you.
An inch between you. That's all that was left. You were ready. You braced yourself by each second.
And just when you thought it was coming, he chuckled, kissing your cheek instead with his nice pink lips. "Be yourself tonight. And don't leave my side. Okay?"
You smiled, partially fake. The disappointment hidden quite well. But thank god it didn't happen, maybe kissing on the first meet wasn't such a good idea. At least not on your radar.
"Let's go dance."

Idk if you still doing the submas x sky stuff but uhhh— I'm quite curious, does the twin ever goes to Homespace? Y'know where we always be spawned everytime we enter the game? What's their opinion about the Homespace? The seven portals of the realms are there and all, Eden where the kiddos sacrifice themself daily are fricking there also. What are you/submas twin thoughts? :o
I know I haven't openly draw or talk about Submas and Sky here but honestly they're still resting in my brain. (Also mainly because I'm trying to subtly steer myself away from Pokémon around now because I get salty at myself and it's not really a good feeling)
Anyways! Brainrot below, let's answer some of these really wanted questions;
In my own personal Subway in the Sky au, Ingo fell into Homespace first while Emmet fell in Daylight Prairie. But both of them have been there! They visited the home space at a later date in their adventure through the small praying statue thing (?)
——
Ingo feels like Homespace, like it's name suggests, is the place with the most feeling of being a 'Home'. He knows that Sky Kids doesn't necessarily all live in the Homespace 24/7, but he finds that place to be more comforting and the calmest. A small, quiet, safe yet lively environment. Fitting of the name.
Emmet thinks while the place is quite small compared to literally everywhere else in the Kingdom, when he sees the kids calling it Home and seems content with it, he really doesn't have any personal opinion on the place. While yes he still look at them as children, some have developed quite a mature mentality. He doesn't need to scold them about their options in picking home.
——
Unfortunately about the portals, Ingo and Emmet can't see it open the very first time other than the portal to Isle! (Just like how a moth would) as they're forced to explore each of the realm individually, visit each elder, and gain access to the portal at home space.
When they later figure out how it works, they're fascinated about it! It's literally a fast travel system that the kids uses to explore the world! (They were questioning the mechanics of it but gave up considering that so far, everything that exists in the Kingdom doesn't seem to go according to the laws of science from their world).
——
Oh I've talked a lot about the Twins'opinions on Eden and I'll keep standing by this opinion; their mix of feelings are swirling around anger, pity, confusion.
They're angry because why would these kids be attracted to something so dangerous to the point that many would confess it's their true purpose and calling? Even if God exist in that world, what kind of God would let children experience such things, repetitively?
They pity the children because no matter how many times they try to explain about the danger of death and how unhealthy the mindscape that they'll be fine even if they just got hit by a red rock, the children would just tilt their head in confusion and told them that they're, in fact, okay and have been doing so for dozens of times now. (He noticed some children actually agree with what he said, but they really aren't that much different. Still thinking that death is nothing to be worried about and pain is nothing big for them)
And the confusion is mainly because.. Well.. Why? Why would these kids have this weird calling that wherever they go, whenever they ask for directions from the bottom of their heart, it'll always lead to a place with such danger and smell of death? What happened to the fallen Kingdom, ruins left by their ancestors and the lack of living being but the presence of ghosts?
Anyways thank u for coming to my pep talk. I hope this answers most of the questions you have uwu
