Volume 1

**Episode 4: The Ordeal**

The grand council chamber of the Animus, bathed in the twilight's iridescent glow, seemed more daunting than ever. Pillars of white marble rose to touch the high arched ceiling, and around the grand circular table, both Nexus and Animus council members were gathered. Their combined gaze fell heavily upon Lyre as he stood before them, the hushed whispers of their discourse creating an uncomfortable melody.

"Lyre," began Seraphim, the council's eldest and most respected member, "Your endeavors with the Primaeva artifact have stirred a dissonance within our Great Chord. We request an end to this venture."

Lyre swallowed the lump in his throat, his fingers clenching at his side as he met Seraphim's gaze. His heart echoed with the rhythm of his purpose, and his words carried the strength of his convictions.

"I understand the council's concern," Lyre said, his voice echoing in the grand chamber. "But it is in our nature as Animus and Nexus to seek knowledge and to understand our universe. The Primaeva have left us this artifact as a guide to the Harmony, and I believe we owe it to ourselves and to them to explore its mysteries."

An uneasy silence followed, the council members exchanging wary glances. The walls of the grand chamber seemed to absorb Lyre's words, resonating with the weight of his belief. But the shadows of discordance and uncertainty still lingered, growing in the corners of their minds.

Despite the opposition, Lyre's journey into the depths of the Primaeva artifact revealed a greater potential - a way to enhance the Harmony. A revelation of such magnitude could not be taken lightly. Fearful of potential misuse, Lyre decided to withhold this knowledge, even from Echo and Cadence.

As the fallout from the ordeal ensued, Lyre found himself cast into unfamiliar shadows. His standing within society, once respected and admired, now bore the taint of controversy. The echoes of his old life rang hollow, replaced by the tumultuous whispers of opposition and the soft sighs of disappointment from those who had once trusted him.

Yet, amidst the discord, Lyre discovered a profound change within himself. He was no longer just an Animus scholar but a seeker, a pioneer who had dared to touch the unknown and seek out the unexplored melody within the Harmony. His spirit bore the scars of conflict, but it also held the strength of his convictions, resilience forged in the crucible of societal opposition.

As the sun set on the Animus city, its ethereal glow cast long, contemplative shadows, much like the ones that now resided in Lyre's heart. The harmonious notes of the Great Chord held an undercurrent of dissonance, a testament to the challenges that lay ahead. The episode closed with Lyre standing alone in the twilight, his eyes reflecting the resolve to continue his journey, carrying the heavy burden of his actions and the profound changes they had invoked.

Inspired by @clonerightsagenda’s thoughts about the Ambiguously Brown Spacefuture trope, I kinda want to see more creativity with how Earth is treated in spacefuture sci-fi.

There are plenty of examples where Earth is the center of everything. Star Trek is the obvious one: it’s a bustling interstellar multispecies space society, and Earth is where Starfleet is headquartered and it’s often reflexively and unthinkingly treated by the narrative like it’s the most important planet in the Federation. (Most of our main viewpoint characters are Human, so it’s the most important planet to THEM because it’s their home, but even beyond that, Earth is treated as critically key to the Federation in a way that, say, Betazed is not.)

More recently, the common trope is that the centers of society and culture and economy and politics are elsewhere. Other planets are important, and Earth is either an unimportant backwater that no one really cares about, or galactic humanity has nearly forgotten about it entirely. This is explicit in Becky Chambers’s Wayfarers, strongly implied in The Murderbot Diaries, and one line in Ancillary Justice suggests that too. Ofc this isn’t entirely new—from what I understand it’s what’s going on in Dune too.

And they do this for obvious reasons: the authors are all interested in social and political worldbuilding that is not tethered to real Earth nations, politics, prejudices, and general baggage. Second-world fantasy authors are allowed to do this with no strings attached, but sci-fi authors who want to do social worldbuilding from the ground up have to justify why people don’t appear to identify as Chinese or Latino or Hopi or American anymore (and more often than not, not Jewish or Catholic or Muslim or Hindu or Baha’i or whatever either), why those identities don’t come into conflict with the new planetary identities and spacefuture religions the author wants to write about. It’s been so long that the origin of humanity is forgotten or irrelevant.

Star Wars is honestly underappreciated for the bold, creative, unique choice to have a bustling interstellar multispecies space society with lot of humans… and no Earth. At all. Where do humans come from? Irrelevant. Not Earth though.

And honestly I wish more sci-fi that wants to write in this space took more of a cue form Star Wars to just own it. (I actually thought the Imperial Radch HAD done the same thing—functionally a second-world fantasy, but in a spacefaring setting—until Kat pointed out the reference to arguing over which planet was the real origin of humanity.) If you posit your space future as our future, but Earth is no longer relevant and is generally forgotten… I guess it depends on how far out it is, but it strains my credulity that no one remembers or cares! The Jews in the spacefuture don’t know/remember/care where Jerusalem is? Muslims in the spacefuture decided that going to Mecca just kinda isn’t worth it? The spacefuture Papal seat is no longer in Rome and the future Catholics don’t know or care that it was ever anywhere else? All the Hopis left the Three Mesas and all the Navajos left Dinétah and all the Māori left Aotearoa and then just… forgot about it? Really? That isn’t true after hundreds and even thousands of years today; why would it be true hundreds or even thousands of years in The Spacefuture?

There are some works that do a little more complexity with spacefuture planetary societies and cultures vs. memory of Earth—the Vorkosigan Saga positions Old Earth as a culturally important memory even if it’s not a politically important planet, and The Locked Tomb makes Earth a holy center place that is mythicized more than it’s known or inhabited, for magic necromancy reasons.

I’d like to see more of that, Earth holding some sort of unique place in spacefuture humans’ culture in a historically informed way, even if you actually want to write about other things. Or go the Star Wars route and proudly proclaim that this takes place a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, don’t worry about it.

So I saw you talking about Puzzles and anime (which I really enjoyed, might I add) and that made me go: What do you think Puzzles' favourite movie would be? Except from his own creations, of course :)) I'm curious on what other's opinion on it is.

[P.S. love your art!]

Oh god no don't ask me this FHJKADS /silly!!

There's such a wide catalogue of movies and given he's seen every single one of them then it's gonna be impossible for me to size it down to one hfsdkja

However... Maybe it can be just that. Maybe, since there's such a wide universe of films, maybe he can't pick one either. I think if someone asked him that he'd begin listing every movie he thinks is the best of the best.

"Let's see... Most recent ones? Well, there's Oppenheimer with it's dual debut with Barbie, Dune, The Wild Robot—however, if we're going with animated features then I simply must say those Spider-Verse films were exquisite. Ah! But the Toy Story saga is such a classic—you can't go wrong with classics either! Interstellar, Fight Club, or if you want to go even older there's Silence of the Lambs, The Shining, oh! What about Alien? That's a great classic sci-fi horror! And how about—"

And he rambles on and on and on. You get the idea.

Apollo's OCs of note!

I have many OCs, some more important than others. This post is going to be a rough Intro to some of them

Isaak & Friends (askblog @askisaak)

Links: Twitter - Toyhouse - Wix Archive

My Main story, has been on-going for 5 years. It's a silly slice of life comic+askblog thing. It's been going for 5 years! It center around gayish dudes with varied side characters. It has supernatural elements!

I love them a lot, they are my everything owo

Premidio and Horizon (askblog @ask-premidio )

Links: Premidio's Toyhouse - Horizon's Toyhouse

Premidio is an Enderman OC I've created 10 years ago while Horizon is only 3 years old XD. Premidio is the focus of his askblog and is on a journey to recover past memories and make new ones. Horizon is only a background character in there. (other old redesign MC OCs of mine such as Valliard or Radio may also show up there)

Lemres & Abok

Links: Toyhouse - story post 1 & 2

Lemres is a phoslyte that accidentally crash-landed in the US and was taken care of my Abok for a long time before being captured by tha ABXC. The whole poll-adventure saga took place to have him escap the facility (linked above) and he's now Free and in Abok's company in Switzerland. His story is currently classified as "finished" but I may extend on what his life is like in Europe.

Lazarus

Link: Toyhouse

He's and interdimentional traveller looking for his mom and who has a deep hatred for his deadbeat father. There's technically multiples of him separated into 2 subgroups: the ones named Buddy are standard harmless version of this guy while the ones named Lazarus have the ability to travel between dimentions are are argessive.

Quick lore video from the point of view of his father:

Sennatronic/Senny cydap

Links: Sennatronic's Toyhouse - Senny Cydap's Toyhouse

Sennatronic is an animatronic of the mascot Senny Cydap (hence the name) that is currently possessed by a space entity known as "The Cosmind". It's currently on the loose, abducting people and adding them "to the interstellar choir"

There also an AU where Senny Cydap is instead an Imaginary friend that was brought to life through unknown means. This version of Senny is really nice and aim to spread joy.

WavSEED/Wess Lewis

Links: Toyhouse - Wix site - Soundcloud

Wess is not a lore focused-OC, he's a UTAU so his main shtick is being used for mucis covers. He has 5 UTAU voicebanks. His RVC model has been discontinued and the "WavSEED R" name and design are plan to be repurposed for a potential Diffsinger or SynthesizerU voicebank!

𖥔 Muna, 20, she/he, WLW, Aquarius, INTP

𖥔 What’s this blog? I’m prone to procrastination, but I have so many projects and ideas I’ve been avoiding for a few years. I’d like to write games, write and illustrate my own comics, make better campaigns for my D&D party, and write some short stories/novels!

𖥔 Hobbies/Interests? Recently I’ve been really into BG3, but I like playing Skyrim, Resident Evil, and SoulsBorne games too! I’m currently replaying Fable, it’s very nostalgic for me. I like to read, my favorite author is Dostoevsky. I’m currently trying to read more fantasy rather than philosophy, as that’s that I’d like to write!

𖥔 Favorite animal? I love cats! I have 2 black cats. But I love squid, jellyfish and bears too!

𖥔 Favorite music? Some of my favorite bands are The Cure, Radiohead, and recently I’ve been listening to a lot of Daft Punk, Björk, and gulu gulu!

𖥔 Favorite movies? My favorite movies are both Bladerunner movies, Interstellar, Pan’s Labyrinth, Stalker, Coraline, and LOTR!

𖥔 Favorite books? Brothers Karamazov, The Vampire of Cuttleburn, and as of recently, The Poppy War! I just started Vinland Saga as well, and I like it a lot so far!

𖥔 Favorite comics? Paper Girls, Ultra Mega, Attack on Titan, and Bungo Stray Dogs. My favorite webcomic on webtoon right now is Nevermore and Deep Sea!

7 11 28 for 2024 asks YIPPEE

Did you write for any new fandoms or ships this year?

YES! The Wingfeather Saga, mainly back in January!!

As far as ships go I don’t believe I have? I have some ideas for a fic about a wonderful couple in Wingfeather, but so far I haven’t actually written it. I never feel confident when I write romantic/shippy fics, as I myself have never been in a romantic relationship, have never kissed anyone, and have no interest in getting a romantic partner or seeking one out. So like… I feel like I’m not the most qualified person to write this sort of stuff asdfghjkjhgfghj

What fic was the most difficult to write?

Gonna go with my Interstellar AU because I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS. FREAKING THING. FOR TWO YEARS I THINK? IT IS A ONE-SHOT. IT IS NOT EVEN 10K WORDS LONG. IT IS A ONE-SHOT. IT DOES NOT COVER THE ENTIRE MOVIE. IT IS LITERALLY ABOUT A COLLECTION OF SCENES THAT TAKE PLACE DURING 10-20 MINUTES OF THE MOVIE. WHY IS IT TAKING ME YEARS TO WRITE. PLEASE.

I’m super happy with what I’ve written for it AND I did make a delightful amount of progress on it this year, but it is one of Those fics I am prone to getting. stuck <3. on. so very stuck. just so incredibly stuck. I Don’t understand what it is about this fic that causes me to struggle So Much with it… but alas.

Also Dear Wormwood, but with this one I Understand Completely why starting it/writing it has been so so tricky. With Interstellar it’s just kinda AAAAAAAAAAA

If this were an awards show, who would you thank?

Thank you to music artist Brye, because without your song I’d Rather Be Alone the original idea for Dear Wormwood would have never been sparked. Like seriously I had Been thinking a lot about c!Dream & c!Ghostbur’s relationship for whatever reason, but it was this particular song that gave me the very beginnings of what would become Dear Wormwood :)

Also thank you to that random tiktok compilation that popped up on my youtube home page, because without that, the Rest of Dear Wormwood would have likely never been sparked <3 Cannot believe I have tiktok to thank for this. this is dreadful.

ALSO. HUGE BIG THANK YOU TO “GOODBYE, SWEET GIRL” BY KELLY SUNDBERG. In addition to being the best book I read all year, it also helped me So much with researching for Dear Wormwood. Beautiful emotional book oh my goodness.

Thank you to the series Maid on netflix. I have not. ever watched this show BUT the clips on youtube are very good and this also helped a little with Dear Wormwood :)

Literally all of my thank you’s are for Dear Wormwood… what can I say. I mean it when I said this was one of The Most important and special stories I’ve ever come up with.

Gonna be real: 2024 was not a very good year for me as far as writing goes. Writers block? dreadful. has not gone away since February. Motivation? gone. floated away many many months ago. I did not write nearly as much as I would’ve liked to, and not nearly as much as I’m used to writing. HOWEVER, DESPITE ALL OF THIS, good things did happen—Dear Wormwood being up at the top of my list. I may not have written very much for this AU, but I did come up with many ideas and scenes.

[theinfiniteharmony]

Volume 1

**Episode 2: Echo's Guidance**

Days had passed since Lyre's discovery. He kept the artifact hidden in his dwelling, shrouded beneath ancient parchments and theories of the Harmony. Even in secrecy, it hummed persistently, as if echoing the restlessness that resided within his heart.

One evening, as the cosmos wove twilight hues into the sky, Lyre wandered through the network of ancient libraries that sprawled beneath the heart of the Animus city. Amid the crumbling ruins and age-old knowledge, he found Echo, a figure of legend and scorn among the Animus.

Echo was an elderly scholar, his essence pulsating with the wisdom of many lifecycles. His theories about the Primaeva were too radical, too unsettling for a society that relished the present harmony. Thus, he lived in the quiet solitude of the libraries, amidst the echoes of a time long gone.

"Lyre," the old Animus greeted, his voice a resonant baritone that intertwined with the silence of the library. "You carry a melody of confusion and curiosity. A new note has been introduced to your song."

Lyre nodded, taking a deep breath before revealing the artifact. It glowed faintly in the dim light, casting shifting patterns upon the ancient stone walls.

Echo's eyes glowed with recognition and wonder. "An artifact of the Primaeva," he breathed, a note of awe colouring his voice. "Where did you find this?"

"In an unexplored field," Lyre confessed. He shared his encounter, his apprehensions, and the resounding questions that filled his mind since the discovery.

Echo listened, his age-etched face revealing nothing but an ocean of calm. When Lyre finished, the old Animus remained silent for a long moment, a stillness that seemed to slow the rhythm of the universe.

"You stand on the precipice of a journey that will test your spirit, Lyre," Echo said finally. "I have long suspected the Primaeva's influence on the Harmony to be more profound than we have been led to believe."

So began the peculiar mentorship between Lyre and Echo. Over time, Lyre grew to respect the older scholar’s wisdom and courage to question the accepted narratives. In the labyrinth of ancient texts and theories, Lyre found guidance under Echo's tutelage. They dissected the mysteries of the artifact, its significance, and its potential impact on their universe.

However, their collaboration was not without consequence. Whispers filled the corridors of Animus society, some full of scorn, others bearing the weight of unease. Lyre's actions were perceived as a challenge to their harmonious existence, sparking fear and opposition.

"I sense a growing dissonance," Echo warned one day, his voice echoing through their secluded corner of the library. "Our society trembles on the brink of change, a melody they are not ready to hear."

Lyre gazed at the artifact. The once-mesmerizing hum now seemed like a daunting symphony of unknown truths. "I fear the repercussions of my actions," he admitted, "but I can't ignore the call of this artifact. It holds a truth we need to uncover."

With Echo's support, Lyre decided to confront the dissonance. The societal opposition was daunting, yet his desire for understanding the Harmony's truth was stronger. He knew he had opened a door that couldn't be closed.

The sun set on another day, casting long shadows across the ancient stone walls. Lyre stood at the heart of the library, the artifact pulsating in his hands. He knew not what the morrow would bring, yet he was resolved to face it. And so, our scholar chose to continue his symphony, one note at a time, on the grand sheet of the universe's song.

7 Dragon Ball Villains that could've carried their own arc

Honorable mention, Sorbet. So I enjoy Frieza as much as the next guy, but his wacky and colorful Frieza Force is what firmly places the Namek Saga over the Cell Saga in my mind. Like they're all such memorable characters that I even like Cui ffs. However, let's be real, none of these guys could carry their own arc. At their heart, they're all followers (all except good ol' Geets). Maybe before their recruitment they had more ambition and determination, but when faced with Frieza's insurmountable power, they ultimately all bent over and bowed.

Sorbet is an odd example, because he is definitely a follower as well, although when the power vacuum that is Frieza and King Cold's death opened up, he didn't turn away. He instead took charge and kept the Planet Trade Organization afloat for DECADES, despite being a koala-man with a power level that I'm sure rivals Appule at best.

The only reason he's not on the list proper is because when we finally get to see Sorbet in action, he's trying to pass the torch back to Frieza. He still gets major points tho for leading as long as he did

Spoilers: no one else from Super is on this list, even though a filler character is

Monster Beast Giran

Look, I'm not saying Giran could've carried his own saga, but if Dragon Ball had been written by a more traditional shonen mangaka instead of a gag artist, he probably would've been the Big Bad of the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament. And yes, I'm using his added characterization from filler scenes in the anime to make my point.

A milk drinking brute with a voracious appetite and a deep-seated hatred of heroes, this absolute unit was unfortunately no match for Goku in canon, but his hulking appearance and quirky personality (at least in the anime) always stuck out to me. In my generic re-write of this arc, a majorly buffed Giran faces Jackie Chun instead, and defeats him. He then faces and almost defeats Goku in the final, but Goku transforms into a real monster beast for the win, and that's that

Yea I won't be trying to retell the story for the rest of these entries

Raditz

It says a lot about the quality of Toriyama's villains that Goku's evil brother from space is a mere speed bump on the road to the real top dog of the Saiyan Saga. This dude is so fucking sexy and such a piece of shit that I can't help but imagine what he could've gotten himself into if only he had more screentime

Staff Officer Black

I know Toriyama loves subverting expectations and that's one of the things I so greatly enjoy about Dragon Ball, but c'mon. Commander Black of the Black Ribbon Army would've been... so so sooo cool. The dude's a true believer, actually loyal to his men, and idk what Red did to become the leader over him, but he seems to have been the real brains behind the operation. Dragon Ball Online brought back Commander Red as a cyborg and all I'm asking is why not Staff Officer Black instead?

Turles

Aight so Tree of Might isn't the greatest movie, I'd even say it's mid at best, but it also has amazing ideas. The Tree of Might? Neat, inspired, scary, and also drawn from Journey to the West lore. Turles? Sexy tan Goku, what's not to like? His Crusher Corps? Don't get me started on his Crusher Corps, because they all have their own story, which was included in extraneous material, but not the movie itself.

Amond, the big guy? Yea he was an intergalactic criminal that was arrested by the Galactic Patrol until he was freed by Turles. Daiz was the Prince of the Pukimpa Dynasty that led his planet's army against Turles, but was defeated, then recruited for fighting so bravely. Cacao was a cyborg built to fight an interstellar war before he fucked off to become a bounty hunter and eventually join the Crusher Corps. Rasin and Lakasei were fossils resurrected by Turles using extract from the Tree of Might.

Fuck, Turles himself is a low-class Saiyan warrior that somehow found or stole the holy Seeds of Might, which were reserved for Kai. When I was a kid my older brother told me (read, lied to me lol) that Saiyans were all test tube babies grown from different strains and that's the difference between low medium and elite saiyans and why he and Goku are almost identical. Like, that's not true, but there's a lotta fleshing out you could do with Turles to make him and his potential saga more compelling

Demon King Dabura

Ruler of a shadowy demon realm for thousands of years with a power level that equals Perfect Cell, Demon King Dabura is also... the bitch of a tiny bitchy wizard? Yup, that's Toriyama all right.

So lemme start by saying that this guy gets so little credit he's not even in Fighterz, despite having a cool sword and a huge canon moveset. He also looks... well tbh, he doesn't look as awesome to adult me as he did to kid me, but he's still neat looking. I like his horns and his funky glamrock outfit. He also probably had his own Dabura Force filled with edgy evul henchmen (including Shula from that filler episode, who I'm pretty sure inspired Dabura's creation) that could've easily filled an entire saga.

It says a lot that Raditz isn't the lead of his saga, but imo it says way more that Toriyama created an entire evil universe opposite the regular universe ruled over by this baritone Satan and he's just a footnote. It also says a lot about Dragon Ball Heroes that instead of trying it's own thing, it digs up Toriyama's fossilized spittle and creates Mira, Towa, and Kabuto from Naruto.

Mercenary Tao Pai Pai

Ok so I'm biased, because this flamboyant bastard is easily one of my favorite villains, and that's including everything, not just Dragon Ball or comics. He oozes so much style that I'm not even sure how you could stretch him out into an entire arc, but it doesn't matter, because he could make it work. The dude can make watching someone else shop for clothes compelling ffs, so as far as I'm concerned, Tao could've been the villain for the whole of Dragon Ball and it'd be just or almost as good as what we actually got

His shirt says Kill You! he's seriously the best don't @ me

Dr. Gero

Mustache

Yes, I know he was supposed to be the Big Bad, but Toriyama's former editor didn't think an old man in baggy pants and a fat clown could carry their own arc, but they're wrong damn it! Just look at him

2024 fic asks: 11, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 28, and 30!

Holy spades okay let's get started:

11: What fic was the most difficult to write? Oh that's easy, ironically! My Tales of the Steve Miller Au fic set between seasons two and three. It physically hurt me to write that ending, and that's the second closest I've ever come to crying at my own writing

14: What were your go-to writing songs? "Many Roads" by Andrew Peterson, anything by the Arcadian Wild, and assorted movie soundtracks but especially Interstellar!

17: Share your favorite opening line. I actually found a couple I liked for this one but I'm gonna go with this line from some of the only Wingfeather Saga fan fiction I have ever written:

"The sun was shining on the isle of Anniera."

18: Share your favorite ending line. From a Rebelcaptain ficlet I wrote for Christmas this year:

"He looked at her one more time. “Always.”"

19: Share your favorite piece of dialogue. DANG THAT'S HARD DIALOGUE IS MY ONE WEAKNESS okay let's look. Oooh you know what I love it whenever I write this particular character so let's go with this:

“Thank you,” Hera told him. “I’d say I owe you, but we both know you’d take that far too literally.”

Karrde snorted. “The aspersions you cast on me are truly hurtful, Captain. But I am a businessman at heart. Which reminds me, I assume you brought my information?”

20: Share your funniest line. Uhhh like everything I wrote? I'm hilarious, okay? But also I have no idea cause once I've read it enough times it's not funny anymore. OH THIS from a story about one of my OCs:

"What’s happening? Doesn’t matter as long as there’s a roast beef sandwich at the end of it. Or, you know, freedom. He’d take either at this point."

28: If this were an awards show, who would you thank? My IRL besties who are my number one hype women, all y'all who put up with my rambling on here, God, and Dave Filoni.

30: What would you like to write next year? Well, I'd like to finish season four of the Steve Miller Au, and then I want to work on a fic I've been plotting for years now: my Rogue One rewrite!! I'd also like to work on my long fic, the Anti Vader Squad, which is going to be very fun

Ask game!!
