Show Me How To Dance Forever info dump
Alright, I'm joining the research team side of tumblr and going through every element of the website / new information. A lot of what's here has been posted by others, so this is more of a compilation of things and me thinking out loud.
The Code - D O U O S V A V V M
The Shugborough Inscription is a sequence of letters – O U O S V A V V, between the letters D M on a lower plane – carved on the 18th-century Shepherd's Monument in the grounds of Shugborough Hall in Staffordshire, England, below a mirror image of Nicolas Poussin's painting the Shepherds of Arcadia (...) [about the relief] On the tomb is carved the Latin text Et in arcadia ego ("I am also in Arcadia" or "I am, even in Arcadia") The letters on the second line, D M, were commonly used on Roman tombs to stand for Dis Manibus, meaning "dedicated to the shades". (from wikipedia page)
I'm not gonna go into much detail about the whole Holy Grail thing, bevause you've all probably read this article by now. I do wanna point point out the obvious Arcadia = Eden connection:
Arcadia (Greek: Αρκαδία) refers to a vision of pastoralism and harmony with nature. The term is derived from the Greek province of the same name which dates to antiquity; the province's mountainous topography and sparse population of pastoralists later caused the word Arcadia to develop into a poetic byword for an idyllic vision of unspoiled wilderness. Arcadia is a poetic term associated with bountiful natural splendor and harmony. The 'Garden' is often inhabited by shepherds. The concept also figures in Renaissance mythology. Although commonly thought of as being in line with Utopian ideals, Arcadia differs from that tradition in that it is more often specifically regarded as unattainable. Furthermore, it is seen as a lost, Edenic form of life, contrasting to the progressive nature of Utopian desires. Greek mythology and the poetry of Theocritus inspired the Roman poet Virgil to write his Eclogues, a series of poems with references to Arcadia as the home of Pan, pipes and singing. (from wikipedia page)
And to point put what the shades in "dis manibus" mean:
In ancient Roman religion, the Manes (/ˈmeɪniːz/, Latin: mānēs, Classical Latin: [ˈmaː.neːs̠]) or Di Manes are chthonic deities sometimes thought to represent souls of deceased loved ones. They were associated with the Lares, Lemures, Genii, and Di Penates as deities (di) that pertained to domestic, local, and personal cult. They belonged broadly to the category of di inferi, "those who dwell below", the undifferentiated collective of divine dead. (from wikipedia page)
POINTING OUT that the Lares are viewed as guardians (sacred guardians if you will -> see Chokehold (I come as a blade, a sacred guardian) and the TOG poem (I am the teeth of God).
The Divide / The Choices
SPEAKING OF the TOG poem, the first email that prompts the choice of house reads "Behold, a Divide", which is very similar to " I am the line between" verse of the poem.
We are presented with two images (which I will get into it later) - House Veridian (crossed swords) and Feathered Host (a feather)
House Veridian: The House Must Endure Feathered Host: The Cycle Must Be Broken
House Veridian
Veridian is probably a reference to the colour viridian, given the symbol is green. Interestingly enough, this pigment is a "hydrated chromium(III) oxide", os an HEXAGONAL SHAPE (the same shape of the images we see on the email. ALSO. OMG YOU GUYSSSS LOOK:
It is antiferromagnetic up to 307 K, the Néel temperature
What's that you ask? WELL:
In materials that exhibit antiferromagnetism, the magnetic moments of atoms or molecules, usually related to the spins of electrons, align in a regular pattern with neighboring spins (on different sublattices) pointing in opposite directions.
THIS IS BLOODSPORT AND ALKALINE ALL OVER AGAIN, I'M GONNA THROW UP. VESSEL YOU BEAUTIFUL BASTARD NERD. MORE:
Chromium(III) oxide is amphoteric AKA In chemistry, an amphoteric compound (from Greek amphoteros 'both') is a molecule or ion that can react both as an acid and as a base
BITCH.
It is also used to polish BLADES! SWORDS! HMMMM!!!!!
If we think of The House as A Vessel for a god (which is basically what they are, mortal houses of worship), we can definitely see it as "I, the guardian, the fighter, the blade, must endure" . See Chokehold and Higher especially for this.
Feathered Host
I think the connection with thw TNDNBTG/ Euclid is pretty obvious. The constant imagery of angels and heaven in his lyrics, the "cycle" that is completed and repeated with those two songs. The cycle is broken, but it loops again.
You live with angels vs your wings won't find you heaven. You are the garden vs I will go back to Eden. You are far away where I can't reach you vs I will bring down heaven myself for you. Gods vs mortals vs angels. Beginning and End. Like F. Ocean said, "it's a loop. the other side of a loop it's a loop".
I think both of these choices are a very clear representation of the story that has been presented in the trilogy, but even more so in TMBTE. The dichotomy between continuing to fight, to spill blood, to be a hones and well polished tool, and the realisation of the enormity of the violence that persists. The desire for peace, the longing for simpler, more innocent times, for Eden, for Arcadia. A utopia that may only exist in dreams, long forgotten. The fields of elation now barren and sealed off.
Euclid marks the moment of breach, where there's finally a clear thread of hope. The break of the bough, the killing of the self, of the ego. But even then, there is still some attachment for the past weaved between the frayed ends. It's still the autumns leaves, do you remember me? And the final callback to TNDNBTG, the loop. An everlasting ouroboros, the venomous serpent biting its own tail, Even and The Tempter one and the same.
I find it interesting how the double-swords can mean so much. In tarot, it represents an impasse, a stalemate (the card is a blindfolded woman - see the Rain guardian - under the moon holding the two swords). It's used as a battlefield marker. In chemistry, double daggers are used to indicate the Transition State of a chemical reaction. Much to think about.
Show Me How To Dance Forever
Right so, I already made a half-assed post about the Nothing Lasts Forever to Show Me How To Dance Forever pipeline, but I'm keeping it here anyways. They have mentioned dance many times before, in the WH cover, in Aqua Regia and Ascensionism, in the interludes (where they say something about dancing with life and death both if I'm not mistaken).
Now, Aqua Regia makes a reference to Dark Signs . I'm done dancing to alarm bells // (...) I could see dark signs, alarm bells in your eyes. AND, Dark Signs has one of my most favourite lyrics, which goes: I might bend and break to my basic needs to be loved and close to somebody. WHICH WE CAN CONNECT to I Wanna Dance With Somebody (who loves me).
Which poses the question: WHAT are we dancing to? Are we giving in yet again to the need for love, and reveling in what it is a flawed and broken cadence of pleasure and pain alike? Or are we asking to be shown how to dance instead of fight, how to turn despair into tenderness. How to live this new life, a new beginning? Are we forever doomed to waltz with Death, to balance fire in the earth, or are sailing away to new ports, leaving funeral pyres behind towards a new shore, to Arcadia? MANY SUCH QUESTIONS!
The Black Flamingo
I don't know dawg. Is he Vessel? Black and tall and elegant and kinda weird?? Ridiculous wingspan??? Jk. I know some people have already talked about it, and it's potentially connected to the TOG novel (which I haven't read yet), so I'll leave that to you.
I might be missing some things but this is what I have for now. My brain hurts lmao.

Whatever manner reanimates different kinds of zombies seems to reanimate the young as well as adults, regardless of their species or the type of zombie (ie. husks, drowned).
Conversely, whatever reanimates skeletons does not reanimate the young, and thus they are likely reanimated in a completely different fashion to zombies. The only exception is the skeleton horse, which must in turn be reanimated in a different manner than other skeletons. Perhaps it has more in common with zombies than other types of skeletons.
2a. Whether or not wither skeletons are reanimated in the same or a similar way to other skeletons is questionable. They share the trait of lacking young with other skeletons, but are otherwise quite different.
3. The Ender Dragon does not have young, but it does produce an “egg”. Assuming it is in fact an egg, and not some strange byproduct of the beast’s biology or death, this counts - regardless of if it can be hatched by a player or not.
4. Both magma cubes and slimes are capable of asexual reproduction.
5. Salmon can be found in three different sizes. Whether these different sizes are genetic, a product of the environment, or an indicator of age is not entirely clear. 6. Allays are capable of asexual reproduction (in this case it is a magical process rather than a biological one), but they are created as fully-formed adults, and thus technically do not have any subadult phases.
7. These animals do, in fact, have young. Their young are altricial (meaning they are born unable to move or eat independently, and are dependent on the parent(s)), so it is more that they are very unlikely to be seen due to the way that they are reared.
7a. Endermen are also altricial, and hide their young in burrows to protect them from predators, competitors, and their dangerous environment. 7b. Ghasts are another altricial species. They protect their larvae within their largely hollow gas-filled bodies, in a somewhat similar manner to the mouthbrooding of certain fish and other animals.
8. These creatures are created (or suspected to be created), not born, and thus don’t have any subadult phases. These creatures are called constructs.
8a. In the case of Creakings, little is known about their nature in general. At this present time, they seem to be created by the Pale Oak, rather than having their own reproductive abilities.
8b. Guardians are constructs. but are also capable of reproducing. They typically have a eusocial colony structure similar to that of bees - the Elder Guardians being the queens, or reproductive females. Should the Elder Guardians die, however, the smaller drones can reproduce amongst themselves to produce more drones. Notably, drones cannot metamorphose into Elder Guardians like some other eusocial animals. This suggests that the different castes within their species were manufactured by their creators.
9. Similar to altricial species, these creatures do have young, they’re just unlikely to be encountered or noticed by players. In these species, it is because the young are born as very small larval stages, and are often hidden from view of potential predators - like players.
10. Creepers have consistently thwarted any attempts of study or classification. Whether they are a plant, an animal, a construct, or something else entirely, is up in the air. How, or even if, they reproduce is not fully understood.
11. The nature of phantoms is strange and little is known about them. They are undead, but do not resemble any living counterparts that could have died and been reanimated to create them. It is possible they are not animated by an external force, like how zombies and skeletons are, and instead are their own unique organism animated by other means. This makes their method of reproduction a real mystery, one yet to be studied and solved.
12. Pillagers and witches seem to be the product of environmental change in villagers. Thus, the reason their are no baby witches or pillagers is likely not because they cannot reproduce (though granted, it’s not been proven that they can reproduce), but is more likely because the young would just be villagers, and would only become pillagers or witches as they grow.
13. Wardens are bizarre and seldom studied organisms. Much of their life history is unknown, including how/if they reproduce and how/if they develop. This may be difficult to study - for a number of reasons, really, but chiefly because they are seemingly not from this realm at all, and the conditions they now live in may not allow them to reproduce or rear their young.

remember null? well after lore progression and violence he regained his true self now
say hi to narrow (or, nicknamed by hana, anguria which means watermelon in italian)
lore rambling in the tags because i'm not assed to write it here
#tenka willow#my sona#oc:narrow#my ocs#my art#i never said it here cus i have null's lore only written in my art fight but in VERY short words#null was basically a chimera made by anemone out of the cast-away guardian Narrow and willow#whose purpose was to eradicate a whole species in the realm whom both willow and anemone despise#anemone inserted a chip into null's body so that he ONLY focused on eradicating that species#because it was the destiny himawari gave to willow. even tho that was basically genocide#so hana and a few others worked together to try to beat anemone's ass (and failed)#however anemone told them the placement of the chip after his ass being kicked a bit#then after that they beat null's ass. and got the chip out. and he regained his true self. YAY!!!!!!!!!#now they're probably gonna be on a quest to find narrow's actual body.............#which is cast away for thousands of years in another planet#being dormant. for so long. so basically narrow is an old man#his actual form is supposed to be a salamander-fish thing i guess#anyways um this is explained very briefly and vague if you have more questions do ask#i literally don't post about lore shit here ever 😭😭i have so much worldbuilding i didn't tell anyone but my brother

to the people who write summaries and wikis with thorough breakdowns of all the lore and media for a series that breaks it up into 20 different formats: you are doing fantastic work, may it remain intact and accessible well into the future, I owe you my life
to the people that decide splitting your series into 20 different media formats with critical lore in most/all of them is a good idea:
ARCHIVE YOUR SHIT IMMEDIATELY, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING.
#my post#the hill i will die on is “DO NOT EXODIA YOUR MEDIA IF YOU WANT IT TO SURVIVE. DO NOT ASSUME. DO NOT SPLIT THE LORE.''#Example one: FNAF. It is in an absolute cocomelon state of comprehensibility. this is why the fans are insane (/positive).#Example 2: RWBY / RoosterTeeth. Were it not for the work of fans preserving their media#we would have lost SO MUCH fucking work and effort.#Example 3: Project Moon. Comics and fan-works have been scrubbed from the internet because they put their foot up their own asses.#(which at the same time i have endless respect for. but when the lore is any amount spotty. if you use a COMIC to supplement.)#Example 4: BATIM. Putting any amount of lore in the NOVELS is asking for karma.#(FNAF is not immune to this. AT ALL.)#Example 5: *EVERY FUCKING ARG OUT THERE*. It is SO stressful trying to get into a series on a timer-#-that is ENTIRELY decided by how long its host service keeps its components functional#Example 6: Warframe. Half the lore is in YOUTUBE TRAILERS. Half is in INACCESSIBLE EVENTS.#THE STORY IS INCOMPREHENSIBLE WITHOUT THE WIKI.#all of this is exacerbated by streaming services deleting anything and everything at the drop of a hat#and certain medias (BATIM. RoosterTeeth. FNAF) just straight up DELETING THEIR SHIT. for REASONS.#YOUR LONGEVITY IS DOOMED TO A BRIEF EXISTENCE WITHOUT A BACKUP PLAN

hiiii! I saw that previous anon post about the rescue bot's battle struggles and was inspired to try and shoot my shot (if i'm coming off as too "intense" then feel free to ignore this im just a little crazy rn) but I'm also currently writing a fic as well which is kinda like my take on an sg universe but with so much sappy redemption because I like that stuff and I wanted to get your opinion/headcanon on this topic because I really like your writing style and lore dumps and takes on the rescue bots characterization. What do you think their obsession/desire would be? Like you said in your previous post of Boulder being a pacifist, I have him down as someone who wants peace and safety for others but in a more twisted way of being overprotective and punishing towards people who are mean or violent and for Heatwave I have him as someone who obsesses over strength and bravery, the display of and actions depicting heroism and the likes. My current issue is that I can't think of anything for Blades and I know in the show he's very skittery and frantic, kinda worrisome and perpetually anxious, so I'm translating that as a sort of savior complex style "the only thing to fear is fear itself", where he's very protective even more so than Boulder but in like a fanatic manner.
OKAY IM SO EXCITED YOU ASKED THIS!!!!
okay so me and @fishleeks discussed something like this at length a couple months ago so I'm using our notes for an au I was planning on introducing but never got around to lol. maybe I'll play with it some more after this
my original idea was just a personality swap from like a doc greene machine but a shattered glass type situation works just fine, I don't have any notes for the burns (I found the situations funnier if just the bots were affected) but okay here we go:
The rescue bots are clearly a little family of some sort, or at least obviously a bunch of guys that live together. The biggest thing that draws them together is their loyalty- these guys are devoted to each other and Griffin Rock and the Burns. If we do a straight opposite day dynamic it basically turns them all into backstabbers who don't give a shit and honestly I find that boring! The loyalty aspect is especially interesting when it's a band of assholes who by all accounts should hate each other but work together well and care in a weird twisted fucked up toxic way, now that is INTERESTING!!! Love me some toxic dynamics... just a bunch of guys who are better inflicted on each other than anyone else, I guess!
Now I'll do one at a time with my interpretation:
BOULDER:
Before: very sweet, mild mannered, pacifistic, curious and mellow.
After: neurotic freak who is disgusted by everything that touches them and very loud about it. Has screamed "I HATE THIS PLANET!!!" sixteen times in the last hour.
Why?: I just want to say I'm obsessed with your idea of twisting Boulder's pacifism into an obsession with strength. I would say it fully depends on the way you're doing the swap: because if you're doing a straight swap, Boulder's pacifism and wanting to keep everyone safe turns into a disdain for mechs and people alike (especially people... nasty organics, lol) and not caring who gets hurt- they would turn extremely selfish. However, if we are going with the equally interesting good traits gone bad, I imagine Boulder's going to turn into something that resembles Shockwave a little. Curiosity and pacifism turns into "I have to know, I have to protect, no matter the cost." And of course... hurts everyone in the process. Becoming the very thing you swore to destroy... hurting the very ones you swore to protect... delicious I love it. But also, if you do a mix of both, Boulder is disgusted by the planet and feels the need to protect the Rescue Bots from it and single-handedly becomes the greatest threat to Earth's environment immediately.
HEATWAVE:
Before: Hot-headed, stubborn, fiercely fights for what he believes in and to protect the ones he cares about.
After: Meek doesn't even begin to cover it. If he speaks you can barely hear what he's saying, usually on the edge of tears, folds like a lawn chair under the slightest amount of pressure. Usually hiding behind Chase or Blades, usually Chase (as he isn't as mean- but the bar is in Hell.)
Why?: Okay so addressing your point about Heatwave obsessing over strength and bravery again I think that falls more into good traits gone bad than a shattered glass type swap. Not a bad thing of course- Heatwave is my favorite so I like to humble him (sorry!) but taking his bravado and flipping it inside out leaves him an anxious and insecure mess (he and Blades are such interesting opposites of each other that when swapped they almost turn into the bastardized versions of each other... I'll go over it again in Blades' section but it is an interesting little thing we noticed and I love them). But yes, I think his obsession with needing to protect as well as the image he holds as the strong leader of the team can quickly get out of control, as he could easily turn controlling and possessive. Any word against him could be reason for violence (we all know he's got that impressive temper) and while he's convincing himself he's "protecting" his team he's really their biggest threat. Awful I love it
BLADES:
Before: Sassy, but extremely anxious, likes to have fun and share that with people.
After: Angry all the goddamn time- far too angry to be tactful or clever with his insults. Usually screaming at everyone to shut the fuck up and has zero impulse control
Why?: Yeah so Blades basically turns into the nightmare version of Heatwave. This is not really important but I love thinking about the ways he and Heatwave interact- usually it's Blades stepping behind Heatwave while Heatwave defends him, but in the bizzarro dynamic it's more like Blades begrudgingly letting Heatwave cling to him while at the same time screaming at him and attempting to goad him into a fight (you just know he loves causing problems). Okay but onto the actual analysis! In a good traits gone bad scenario, I think Blades' obsession would be with self protection and staying safe. I think his anxiety and insecurities and penchant for letting someone else start a fight spirals out of control into complete selfishness where he starts avoiding fights and conflict all together, and then mechs, and then you never even see the guy. Most likely, he's going to stop talking- can't avoid conflict if you don't do anything to start it. I imagine he's just going to recess until he's practically a shell of a mech, too terrified to do anything that could get him in trouble that he ends up doing literally nothing but standing there motionless looking at the ground. Or, in the worst possible mixture of the two, Blades is a raging asshole who is too scared to fight so he forces everyone else to do everything for him.
CHASE:
Before: Polite, very conscious of the law, respectful but never hesitates to stand up for what he believes is right.
After: Compulsive liar and kleptomaniac. Is always sporting an insincere grin that's lowkey really creepy and absolutely loves to scheme (he and Blades set mean pranks).
Why?: Okay so we were thinking a bizzarro Chase would have an even deeper understanding of the law, just so he's way better at exploiting loopholes and breaking it. But a good traits gone bad Chase I think would go in a similar way as Heatwave, desperate for control. But it's also established that Chase desperately needs to be useful and his worst nightmare is having nothing to do. In tandem with a Heatwave that prevents him from doing anything, I imagine Chase starts causing problems on purpose just to do something. 100% he starts lashing out- and as for his obsession/desperation, make that need to be useful and dial it up to 1000%. He's doing everything. He's solving problems before they start and actively causing new ones. Oh Blades Boulder complained about your video games being loud so I took the liberty of disposing of them. But in the wrong receptacle so I have an excuse to completely remake the recycling plant as more efficient. Stop crying it's not that deep.

Okay probably way more than you asked for and I did my best to answer your question but everything very quickly got out of hand lol. I love these idiots so goddamn much

One of my silliest personal headcanons is that Chorn is actually from the White/Black, and is like a predecessor to the Lords In Black and Webby.
So yeah Chorn was humanity's first contact with the White/Black, and it all went downhill since then.

While i agree with you that it's very likely the abyssal serpent isn't an outer god and more of an eldrich parasite, you don't see other outer gods being obsessed with consuming and destroying the demigods they cursed. Most of them feel they're just forces of nature like the rot & the frenzied flame etc.. while the Abyssal serpent show some "wickedbess" and hatred towards Messmer it will do anything to destroy him .so you think that they're similar to Radagon/Marika? I think the white blind serpent is messmer while the red one he summoned which has red eyes and multiple eyes on its body is the serpent of the abyss, so they're kinda still different entities? While i think the abyssal serpent being Messmer is confusing but i appreciate your analysis, because it's far more interesting than the serpent being a new outer god.
Hi, thanks for the ask! I will attempt to clear it up!
I do not believe the Abyssal Serpent is attempting to consume or destroy Messmer, at least not intentionally. As is the theme of the DLC, perspective must be considered—the serpent is malevolent, but to who?
(long post under cut!)
The Abyssal Serpent is not stated to be harming Messmer, as far as I can tell. The only potential harm it could be doing is eating away at his kindling, but it is his flame that is the curse: “Messmer despised his own fire. Time and time again he hoped to rid himself of it, but ever did it burn” (Messmer’s Orb). So, it can be said the serpent is eating at the kindling instinctually and/or in an attempt to help snuff it out. Messmer explicitly has tried to get rid of his flame, but has not tried to get rid of the serpent—instead, he accepts it:
“The winged snakes were Messmer's constant companions. They were there when the base serpent was sealed away behind his eye. They were there through his eternity of suffering. They will accompany him yet, in his hideous new form born when he destroyed the grace granted by his mother. They have accepted his fate as much as he.” (Messmer’s Helm)
We’ll get back to the winged serpents in a moment, but note the timeline here: it first states the base serpent was sealed, THEN Messmer went through an eternity of suffering, THEN he removed the seal and was reborn anew. It might be hideous, but it’s his, not something his mother or anyone else has done to him. Thus, the serpent’s malevolence must have been directed at outside forces. Marika does not often directly interfere with something or someone unless it could bring personal harm to her or the Erdtree—such as when she personally slew the Fell God. Yet, she plucked out her own son’s eye and put in place the seal to contain the Abyssal Serpent, despite the consequences this may have for Messmer. The serpent was that much of a threat to her, hence why I believe it is the “traitor to the Erdtree” that was foretold. It was not even the flame part that concerned her, but the serpent’s great powers of Shadow, like I explained in the last posts.
(The whole sealing ordeal has an air of “I’m doing this for your own good” which I’m certain Messmer wholeheartedly believed. Being called an accursed traitor your whole life just for existing must’ve sucked so, yeah, seal away. I’ll go blind for you, Mother; I’ll take the blame for you, Mother; I’ll do anything you ask of me, Mother—and yet, she still didn’t trust him enough to not remove it one day, and left him abandoned in the Land of Shadow. If she had just loved him as he was instead…)
On the subject of the winged serpents—I believe you are confusing them a bit there. The winged serpents are a separate entity from Messmer and the Abyssal Serpent. Messmer himself is a black serpent with red eyes all over its body, while the winged serpents are red with green eyes; Messmer is blind, the winged serpents are not. The winged serpents only appear white in phase 2 because they are shedding, though under the shed texture you can see they are still red.
They are called “wise friends” and “constant companions”, lending to the winged serpents being separate entities from Messmer, and this can also be seen in their design. They don’t grow out of him in a seamless or natural way, instead seeming as though they’re impaled through him, and Messmer and the Abyssal Serpent do not share design traits with the winged serpents like they share traits with each other. The winged serpents are the natural wardens of the Abyssal Serpent, stated to “keep the base serpent at bay and hold its power in check” (Winged Serpent Helm). This says to me they have been performing this task since before the seal, otherwise there would be no need for them. Consider also that for all its malevolence, the Abyssal Serpent did not cause any catastrophes in particular, else we would have heard about it. It was only prophesied to. Between the winged serpents and Messmer’s own compassionate self, the serpent’s lust for destruction was not acted upon (or was channeled to fulfill his mother’s wishes instead). If I may indulge Freud for a moment, Messmer was balanced—the Abyssal Serpent was the instinctual id, the winged serpents the logical superego, and Messmer the mediating ego between them. Something about the winged serpents being specifically “wise” makes me think of that, like they are Messmer’s personal advisors. His equals, and revered as the symbol of his army.
I say all this in efforts to explain that Messmer was whole, and will be whole again. That his serpentine nature was despised was a matter of public opinion, of what was writ in the Golden Order, of what he asked everyone to do—“Direct thy maledictions, thine ire, and thy grief towards me alone” (Messmer’s Set). The serpent within may be a scary and lightless and hideous monster, but he accepts that. He is what he is. When he removes the seal, the only thing that changes is that he has disappointed his mother; he is still just as lucid as he was before. He is still Messmer.
“Embrace thine oblivion, as shall I.”
- Froggo
P.S. I may have downplayed in this post how the Abyssal Serpent is inherently destructive and painful to Messmer, and like, brooding a hundred snakes inside him (more on that later), but what I’m getting at is that this is a natural thing he was born with, while the seal was an unnatural thing that was done to him. The serpent is a disorder that does not wholly define him but is still a part of him, while the seal was an improper cure that only repressed his self. Marika often hides away that which she does not want to deal with—out of sight, out of mind, as they say…

Hii, I finally finished writing the suggestions :D sorry that it took a while
Qui-Gon sees Sifo-Dyas and Rael meeting (or he sees just Rael) after he got exiled and runs up to his older brother and is very happy
I combined three of your asks and made a long ass lore comic
Hope you enjoy it
Lore in text form below :3
Lore:
Before Frostshard(Dooku) took Sagekit(Qui-Gon) as his Padawan, he had another apprentice before him, a cat by the name of Brambletuft(Rael).
Bramblekit was found by the Seekers and brought to Dawnclan(Jedi Order) at a very young age, like most Force-Sensitive cats destined to be knights.
Untamed and wild from the start, he often gave a lot of knights a headache, including Wolfheart(Plo-Koon), who was in charge of babysitting kits who hadn't turned 6 moons old.
Yet most praised his honesty and independence nevertheless.
It was those qualities that made Frostshard choose him as his first apprentice; he thought of training the rowdy kit as a personal challenge, since nobody dared to take him on as their padawan, he wanted to prove to his fellow clanmates that he could train Bramblekit into a great knight.
The two got along quite well together because of their similar views of the Republic and the ways of the Force.
Soon, their bond grew into something like a father-son relationship over the moons, and Bramblepaw passed the trials when the time came, becoming a full knight of Dawnclan, renamed Brambletuft.
For a while, everything seemed to go well, until the incident happened.
During a mission in one of the Outer Rim territories, Brambletuft was forced to kill his apprentice, Opalpaw(Nim), when her mind was destroyed by a poisonous dart.
Chaos erupted in Dawnclan when Brambletuft dragged back Opalpaw's mangled corpse, and word quickly spread about the knight who lost control of his Padawan.
Dawnclan was about to lose the Republic's faith and the Chancellor's, who kept sending messages to Horizonstar(Yoda) that they were highly disturbed by the incident, questioning whether they had lost control of their knights.
A trial was held a few days later, and Horizonstar exiles Brambletuft from Dawnclan.
Not wanting to cause more trouble, and feeling the need for a journey to redeem himself, Brambletuft agrees to his leader's terms, despite Frostshard backing him up, and leaves the very next day.
Frostshard knew the reason why Horizonstar exiled Brambletuft; all because to convince the politicians that Dawnclan was not falling apart.
This makes him think that he'd failed to protect his former Padawan, and his trust in both himself and his clan shatters.
And Brambletuft's mentality shattering since the incident didn't help at all.
Not wanting to ruin another Padawan's life, Frostshard vows to never take on another apprentice for the rest of his life.
A few years later, Seersight(Sifo) receives a vision of a hospital in Tribe Dune(Tatooine)'s destruction, and despite the Council refusing to help, Frostshard and Seersight slip out of Dawnclan and go to their aid nevertheless(since they both thought helping others regardless of rank and side was their main priority as knights)
Seersight's vision came true, since the hospital met its destruction by a thunderstorm, in which lightning set it ablaze and broken.
The duo and the other healers worked hard to save the patients in the crumbling hospital, and most got rescued.
One of them was the slave, Sagekit(Qui-Gon), whom Toadflap(Watto) left to die when he decided it was too risky to rescue his property.
Frostshard senses the abandoned and terrified Sagekit amongst the blazing rubble. The kitten's situation forcefully reminded the white cat of his kithood, and as if driven by an invisible force, he riskily rescued him, almost dying of burns and smoke inhalation.
Sagekit, thankfully recovers fast, and now that he is free from slavery, agrees to stay with Seersight.
He also befriends Brambletuft, who was currently taking refuge in Tribe Dune, and when he hears about his former Master in trouble, he comes to the cave.
Sagekit was nervous at first, but the older cat was patient with him, being gentle and keeping him company while Seersight nursed Frostshard.
Soon, Brambletuft realizes Sagekit is Force-Sensitive, and tells Seersight to take him back to Dawnclan to train as a knight.
Seersight tries to persuade Frostshard to give another shot at training another apprentice, but he refuses, unable to let go of his guilt of failing Brambletuft.
It was only when Brambletuft urges him to let go of his past and forgive himself, did Frostshard has a change of heart.
When Frostshard finally recovered enough to travel back, Seersight bids farewell to Brambletuft and goes back to Dawnclan, taking Sagekit along.
Before they parted ways, Brambletuft promised to visit Sagekit again, when he was ready.
And he does, after Sagekit becomes Frostshard's Padawan, by sneaking in Dawnclan frequently to make sure they were doing okay.
Drawing this comic was a blast!
I got to practice my storytelling and drawing of different cat poses and angles, so this was a huge treat.
Thank you for all these asks Repa, and thank you for being so patient with me for waiting 2 long months

Strange Cookie relations Au fic idea thing
Aka my brain-worms won't sleep. Also strap in this is a bit of a long post. (This is firmly in the au territory.)
Okay, so..... I may have mentioned this a few times before, that I have been charmed to death by the silly little cookie game called Cookie Run Ovenbreak.
I just find it so charming and the character designs are fun. The little mini games are cute and I am just genially having a good time with this mobile game.
So, I took a look at the lore for this game.
And holly hell in a hand basket...... that’s.... that’s a lot to take in. And I haven’t even touched the kingdom game yet. Like no joke cookie run kingdom isn’t on my phone at all but the second I look into the lore, I was over ran with just..... a lot of stuff.
(Also, the fanart and fan-fic parts of this fandom have been fun to look at. But I am getting off topic.)
Now the stuff that I have read through has been..... let’s just say it been a lot food for the brain worms that live inside my head. Is the lore troupe? Yes, yes it. Do I eat that shit up? Yes, yes, I do. And one thing that has caught my eye is the family linage of a certain.... purple and white kingdom......
Anyway, no more beating around the bush, I have this headcanon idea where Mystic Flour Cookie is Dark Cocao’s grandma and it was mostly inspired by nerdy love history and complicated as hell family trees.
To kinda outline this messy ball of loose strings, lets start at the beginning with Mystic Flour Cookie.
Before she was called Mystic Flour Cookie, there existed a cookie named White Flour Cookie with “Mystic” being the title she took when she ascended to the throne after her own mother’s death. White Flour as she was known back then tried to be better then her mother, who was known as a slightly vain and distant queen. Always aloof and withdrawn from the goings on of her people. White Flour in contrast cared deeply for her people wanted what was best for them. So she strived to make her kingdom flourish.
And for a while it did.
But the better the kingdom did, the most revered Mystic Flour became to her people. (And the more jealous other kingdoms became but we will get back to that.) They started treating her more like a goddess then a queen or even a mere mortal. So, she became ever more distant to those closest her. Focusing solely on the her work and her kingdom, to the point of neglecting her own wellbeing.
That was until a certain traveling warrior came to visit.
Now this warrior, Coco Bean, wasn’t anyone special per-say. He was the second or third son of a Cacaoian noble family, the Bitter Bean family, who had no really path in life. He had traveled to the Mystic Flour kingdom to seek the advice of the Wiseman there but ended up enamored with the queen of the kingdom. He also saw how lonely she looked and how sad she underneath her mask of serenity.
So with idea in mind and bow in hand..... he did something truly very foolish.
He shot an arrow with a love note into her bedroom. (I never said he was sharpest tool in the shed, okay.)
At first, Mystic ignored them. She gets note and declarations of affection all the time from her nobles. How was this one any different? Well, then the second one came. And then the third and a fourth and by the fifth arrow shot into her bedroom, Mystic had enough of this nonsense.
She tore open one the letters and found a beautiful poem written on it. A simple and sweet poem that wanted easy her loneliness and dry her tears.
Curious, she found her a bow of her own and shot a replay back into the woods. Or at least she tried too. The arrow actually never left the bow and after several tries. So, Mystic just opted to leaving the arrow stuck in a tree outside the palace with the note tied to it.
And that is how Coco Bean and Mystic Flour meet. (It’s a start to an idea.)
So fast forward and the two fall head over hells for each other. Coco Bean is made her Personal Guard (and lover). This pisses some people off, yaddie yaddie, they don’t care cause they are in love, yaddie yaddie. Baby happens! Yeah.
Next character in the family tree is Cocoa Powder.
Cocoa Powder is Mystic and Coco Bean daughter and later in the story Dark Cacao’s mother.
Now one would think that a royal baby would be a cause for celebration in the Mystic Flour kingdom.... well.... not so in this case. You see, the kingdom at the point of Cocoa birth is at a tipping point with a few other kingdoms. Rebellions outside the kingdom are everywhere, noble families of the kingdom are not happy with their queen’s choice in lover and the threats of other kingdoms are starting to mount.
All this comes to a head when an attack on the royal palace happens. Coco Bean is killed in the attack and Mystic Flour in a moment of shock and grief unlesahes her Apathy powers for the first time. Completely devastating the attackers and most of the palace staff. Reducing many to dust.
What’s left after the attack is frighten. Deeply frighten.
Mystic herself included.
Not long after Mystic falls into a deep depression for her fallen love and the growing fear of her powers. This starts a domino effect that eventually leads to the “Apathy Power” taking over her being and the complete collapse of her kingdom. But before that happens, Mystic manages to do one last good thing.
One last act of love and care for her daughter.
She sends her daughter away.
Specifically, Mystic sends her daughter to live with the Bitter Bean family in the Cacao kingdom, where Cocoa will be safe and far away from the collapse of her own land. Cocoa Powder is loath to leave her mother and her homeland. But Mystic isn’t sure how much longer she can keep the “Apathy” back and does not wish to see her daughter used as a puppet against her. So, she sends her daughter away, telling the princess to never return.
So, Mystic Flour kingdom falls and Cocoa Powder goes into hiding in the Cacao kingdom.
Cocoa Powder later takes on the name of Coco Butter given her paler complexion and as a way to honor her fallen father. Her story progresses and she slowly adjusts to live in the cold lands of the Cocao kingdom. She is seen as an outsider to the kingdom’s power players and most of them foreseer her being forgotten.
But.....
The king of the Cacao kingdom has a different plan.
Given that Coco Butter isn’t from any of the powerful noble family trying to make power plays, and is fairly pretty, and technically is still a princess, and similar age to his own son.......
Coco Butter is arranged to marry the Crown Prince, Bitter Cacao and is whisked off to the royal palace.
CB (Coco Butter) and Bitter Cacao aren’t really the best match personality wise. Bitter Cacao is well a bit bitter and stand off-ish with a short temper. Meanwhile CB is kinder and more free spirited then most. (She is also hella stubborn. The Dark boys get it from somewhere.) The two struggle to make it work, but it eventually becomes.... an okay marriage. They end up only having one surviving son, who ends up being Dark Cacao.
Now Dark Cacao, despite everything that is written about him or that we have seen from him, was a mama’s boy when he was young. He adored his mother. Her kindness, her courage to stand up for others, and her adventurous spirit. She was everything to her young son and the two had a very strong bond.
And then she dies.
Or maybe not.... I have completely sorted out my thoughts on this yet.
I have half of an idea of where Coco Butter pass away while Cacao is young and he ends up raised by his distant and bitter father. But I can also see where she passes away shortly before Cacao adventure with the other ancients. With his reasoning for being out adventuring is his way of honoring his mother last wishes. I don’t fully know yet.
Either way, the info of who Coco Butter is/was is kind lost to history. Cacao was never told about his mother’s past or how she came to live in the Cacao kingdom. He does try to honor her memory but it gets lost in all the wars and turnmoal of his own life. (Safe to say that Grandma Coco would be very upset with how her son and grandson’s relationship turned out.)
My overall idea doesn’t have any of this history come to ahead until after Mystic Flour is defeated by Dark Cacao in the current storyline. Basically, some magic whatchamacallit separates Mystic Flour from her “apathy powers” and she reverts to her old personality before it took over. The current ancients try to help her recover and find her new place in the world. Dark Cacao is hesitant but does offer her a place in his kingdom. (Mostly to keep an eye on her for any schemes.) And while she is there, she tries to find out any info on her long-lost daughter. The sweet and kind girl that she sent over to the cold mountains so very long ago.
More plot happens.
Dark Cacao feeling a bit sorry for her, helps Mystic search for any records of a pale haired girl named Cocoa Powder but come up with very little. They spend weeks in the library and record halls looking for something, anything that will give Mystic even a hint of her daughter fate. Mystic is about to give up when she happens across an old portrait of Coco Butter in the royal library. Dark Cacao explains that the woman in the portrait is his mother, a beloved and kind queen.
Mystic ends up putting the dots together and only somewhat freaks out. Okay.... she majorly freaks out. She does not take the thought of nearly killing her own family very well. Or the fact that her own grandson inherited the other half of her soul jam. It spirals into a mess and Dark Cacao ends up having to calm a very distraught Mystic Flour down.
Mystic closes herself off again after the incident and locks herself up in her rooms. Dark Cacao while taken aback by her reaction, decided to do some digging and figures it out for himself. Slightly shocked by this knowledge, he goes to straight to Mystic demanding a talk with her. They do, somewhat. It sounds more like a shouting match at times, but they do work things out.
The “talk” ends on good terms with both parties having a new appreciation for their small and strange family.
More plot happens.
In return for helping her, Mystic sets out to help Dark Cacao with his own relationship with Dark Choco. Or as I’ve been calling this part of the overall story, Dark Choco get dragged home by his great Grandma against his will.
Basically, Mystic forces Cacao and Choco to have a long talk about their feelings. It’s a difficult talk for both of them, but one they both wanted in the end.
More plot happens and the three of them end up as a somewhat happy family unit. Mystic kinda takes up the role of royal mother/adviser to the family. Dark Cacao and Dark Choco work on their relationship, maybe get some therapy. I don’t know yet.
There is a lot of this.... fan-fic, headcanon, au idea.... that I have not fully worked yet. And honestly this mess has been in my brain for about a month now and I had to do something about it to get the brain-worms to finally sleep
It just had to get out of my brain. I need my sleep, y’all.
Anyway, I hope y'all enjoyed my ramble. I have no clue if this will turn into an actually fic or not. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. I know my own track record with these things. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
