The Owl House Pilot Leak!!!

            Oh my titan.

            The Owl House’s original pilot episode (basically a bunch of voiced-over storyboards) just got leaked and OMT. Watching it felt like experiencing the original magic of the show all over again… Reminding me what it was like to fall in love the first time!!! The hype and rush, the excitement to type down my thoughts after a new episode, analyzing and gushing over both big and small moments, the details!!! The pilot has reiterated all over to me again why I love these characters, from Luz's powerful earnestness, to Eda's chaotic demeanor! It’s like having the whole show open ahead of me, the possibilities endless when knowing this is just the beginning and we could go anywhere from here!

            What’s interesting is that Luz’s conflict with Camila doesn’t really exist here; In fact Camila isn’t present or mentioned at all! What brings Luz to the isles is Amity, who’s been learning in the human world, under the guise of being a human by disguising her ears! It’s alluded to that Odalia and Alador made her do it, though we don’t know why…

            But WOW that must’ve been so meta, doing S3 with Amity stuck in the human world with Luz, hiding her ears! It must’ve been a fun way to bring back the older concepts in new form! And indeed, we see a couple of stuff we’ve already gotten glimpses of, such as the storyboards of Luz offering her friendship art to Amity! I love that we get to see the actual scenario of how Amity accidentally defended Luz in the first place, since we heard that but didn’t get to see how it turned out.

            It’s interesting that Lumity is basically the inciting incident of the story, though I can see why the final version opted instead to emphasize Luz’s conflict with her mother. Especially with how she chooses to stay in the isles in the final draft, which leads to guilt over lying to her mom, having her ‘coming out’ moment that eventually occurs in Yesterday’s Lie, etc. So more agency when it comes to Luz losing her access to the human world. Plus in the pilot, there isn't the same emphasis on Luz trying to live out her dreams of being a witch, and her obsession with stories that ties back to Manny and forms the basis for a lot of other themes and arcs.

            That said, I also appreciate what this alternate take offers, and how Lumity helps tie everything together, it really is the queerness that is such a foundational part of the ‘weirdness’ theme that the show is about, and it’s intertwined with the pilot! God Luz being heartbroken when Amity dismisses the drawing… And then crying when Eda compliments it without realizing who it’s about! Or maybe she did, she could’ve recognized Luz there and figured out a way to stealthily make Luz feel better…!

            I love Luz routinely lock-picking her locker because she presumably forgot the combination! And it’s interesting that we have a setup of there being multiple dimensions that the Boiling Isles has access to, and not just the human world and Demon Realm. That plays a role in the climax, more on that later. Given we have what is basically an airport for different dimensions, I wonder if we would’ve seen Luz find her way back home much earlier on, under much less intense circumstances, in a S1A episode?

            The ‘Emperor’ is also alluded to in the pilot, which we didn’t get actual mention of until the fifth episode in the final show. He apparently dislikes humans and wants Luz brought over to him, is this still operating off of the ‘Pupa’ version of the character who claimed to speak on behalf of the true ruler, trapped in their metamorphosis by him? So maybe he wasn’t always human, or maybe this is Belos’ hypocritical way of ‘protecting’ humans by keeping them away and in blissful ignorance of the demon realm.

            We also establish Hexside much earlier! IIRC Hexside was always part of the show, but executives pushed for it to have more emphasis, which the crew continued to follow through on in S2 onwards because that had already been set up. Lilith is the principal, and I recognize the storyboards of her, including her bat transformation! We get a Tinella Nosa cameo, we see Amity, and there’s also a brief cameo of Willow too! Nice way to set her up before her proper debut.

            The ‘barrier’ containing King’s crown turns out to just be a regular human locker, which makes me wonder if the writers updated the final draft to make it a force field that only allows humans through, because of the whole Belos twist. Which makes me wonder if in this draft, Belos is Pupa, who never was human, or maybe they realized the opportunity to insert foreshadowing into a big twist regarding the main villain. Makes me wonder if the house we see Amity enter in the pilot, which is on sale, would've had any significance like in the final show. Love how Tinella Nosa is a student at Hexside, and also Dana having to occasionally insert lines for Wendie Malick and others was great.

            Lilith is a lot more openly adversarial, which is different compared to how her actual debut provides a softer side to her; I imagine this would’ve been apparent in a later episode of the ‘Pilot AU’, and her transformation has me curious; Was she originally the one with the curse, but then the writers changed it to Eda? Or did they both have a curse? Eda also has an owl form she can summon and control at Will, maybe all Clawthornes have a beast mode that’s less of a curse and more of a talent. Lilith ends up trapped in another dimension, which makes me wonder if she’d have a temporary replacement –possibly Pilot Bump- or if she’d return offscreen. We see the portal key get destroyed under much more casual circumstances, though it’s less as big of a deal for this and the established ‘dimension port’ we saw before.

            (Also, Amity recognizing Luz in the hallway… Everything to me!!!)

            Warden Wrath doesn’t exist and neither does the Conformatorium, it’s Lilith and Hexside. With her as principal and Amity as student, I wonder if we would’ve gotten more of their relationship in the pilot AU, if Covention was a way of carrying over that former connection since Amity would be a teacher’s pet in either version of the story. And speaking of ties to Covention, it’s interesting is that Eda’s chest gem seems to be linked to the Emperor’s Coven, as ‘Pilot Kikimora’ uses it to control her. Curiously, we have a scene at the end mirroring what we got with Lilith in the final draft of the show!

            I feel it implies that Eda DID join the Emperor’s Coven with Lilith, if only for a brief moment, but then defected; But the chest gem is basically the pilot version of the Emperor’s sigil, except with the explicit function of being a shock collar. I find it interesting that Eda still has the mirror to contact the EC with, instead of just getting rid of the thing. Is she a rogue agent who hasn’t totally cut ties, because she can’t? Won’t?

And the fact that Pilot Kikimora can just shock Eda at will makes me wonder if the Emperor is low-key just letting Eda roam around, which makes me wonder if he’s aware of the familial connection, is using Eda to find Luz, already knows about her doing that because of the time loop, etc. We’d of course have gotten an episode where Luz finds out about Eda’s connection and helps her deal with the gem… I realize now that Luz learning Eda also wanted to join the EC with Lilith is a carryover of this idea.

I can see the ups and downs between both versions; The final draft sets up Luz’s conflict with Camila and the reality camp, which is foundational to her character arc throughout the whole show. Her pain over being ‘sent away’ is just so vital that I appreciate its inclusion in the first episode. But I also like the inclusion of Lumity and the earnest desire to be friends with someone who showed her, unwittingly, any kindness at all! We get explicit bullying from Luz’s peers in the pilot, but in the final draft we also get her thoughtlessness that plays a big part in her S1 arc. And Luz’s arrival in the isles is more intertwined with Eda and King in the final version, which also feels right; The show is about these three in particular!

All in all, this was wonderful to watch! The magic was experienced all over again, not just in watching an episode, but also commentating on one that was just ‘released’ as well? I thought the last time I’d do anything like this was with the series finale Watching and Dreaming… But as Luz said, it really comes full circle with watching the first episode all over again! So maybe we have other stuff to still look forward to after all… At the very least, we have an eternal anticipation with an unexplored universe ahead of us, that will never reach completion; So it's like our ever-lasting final gift from TOH, and a good last one. So until next time: BBBBBYYYYYEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Hey guys (gender neutral)

I update OMT(WT) yesterday and I just think it’s so funny because it’s turning into something that is much sillier and hornier than it was originally plotted to be. This does not usually happen to me. Usually things turn darker than I originally intend. Case in point: True North. Now, True North is not extraordinarily angsty and it’s certainly not dark dark, but considering it was originally supposed to be called “My dick is a compass and he is true north” well, you get it.

It is on my to do list to remix True North back into its original form, so let me know if you would want to read that.

[phoebesbridgers]

thinking about an OMT B-side that is possibly in the works…… if they cut See You from the original release i can only imagine what other songs about Them may exist 😔

[sh4tt3rg1rl]

This is, Ofc, based on the 1970 movie adaptation: “Scrooge”

Since we all know the normal plot, I’ll be doing this character by character.

also, for future reference: OT is “original timeline”, specifically of TADCBLR. I’ll refer to the original movie timeline as OMT.

Scrooge: Sun. While someone like Mix fills the role better personality-wise, I chose sun because of her surrounding cast. She has enough characters in her life to fill pretty much every spot needed. Instead of being a miser/hoarder, she is neglectful, probably more so than in the OT. Instead of seeing nothing of value except in money, it’d probably be alcohol. She’s gonna come off much worse in this version than in OT.

Bob Crachit (and his wife): MY FAVORITE CHARACTERRRR- and the one I had the most trouble choosing for. We don’t really have anyone that exactly fills this role, mainly because poverty isn’t exactly a problem in TADC. So this will probably be our first step into proper AU territory. For now, Crachit and his wife will be Northeast. Their five kids will be all adopted, probably left over without a home due to Sun’s neglect to make a point. We’ll get to Tiny Tim in a moment. While poverty doesn’t factor in as much to their character, especially because they are lord and lady of a manor, in OT they’re left alone…in the AU Sun treats them badly out of spite.

Timothy Crachit (Tiny Tim): Alpenglow. The depths ravaged her body and she ends up in the AU Crachits’ care after Sun storms off. She’s on a soft time limit and this is one of the most tangible results of Sun’s neglect.

James Marley: In OMT, Marley is Scrooge’s old business partner who died. So duh it’s gonna be Moon. Enough said. She’s much more snarky in this version.

The Ghosts of Christmas Past: Northeast! Again! But specifically NOT the lord and lady. This is original northeast, memories intact. I’m sorry but I didn’t reeeeeally know who else to put in this role, especially because…”past” and amnesia and also Sun knows these people well enough to understand this. They’re a lot more cheery and upbeat than OMT’s Past Ghost.

Isabelle: SIGIL. DONE. AU comes into play here: Sigil leaves Sun because of her drinking habits. Do they get back together? Probably after the redemption arc, seeing as Sigil couldn’t exactly die of age, age isn’t really a thing here, so everyone from the past era is still alive.

Mr. Fizzywitz and His Wife: No clue. Like…Sun never had a mentor. Possibly just the original TADC cast? WAIT NO KINGER AND QUEENIE. WHEN THEY WERE HAPPY.

Scrooge’s Dead Sister: …eh….um….no idea….Moon?….fills both her and Marley?…..

Ghosts of Christmas Present: Dusk and Jessy. This is where I abandon all semblance of the original timeline because I HAVE A TRAGIC IDEA AND I AM REQUIRED TO USE IT. In OMT, you get a different brother of Christmas present each year. He just kinda peaces out to Heaven or space or symbolism land or whatever afterwards. In other versions, he DIES come stroke of 12. So I interpreted it thusly: Dusk, because she kinda became Winter herself, starts falling into a coma at the start of March, and sleeps from the start of spring to end of autumn. Her domain can run itself in the meantime, but poor Jessy has to wait for her to come back and generally acts in her stead while she’s comatose. Anyways, one of the reason the Present Ghosts are so cheerful is because they missed each other a lot. Awwww…

Scrooge’s Nephew and his Wife: Hmm…uhhhhhhh I’d say hammer but hammer is someone else important in the same time period…Gnagle? And Kaufmo? Let’s go with that.

The caroling kids: The objects, lol. MOTHER CHRISTMAAAAAAS-

Ghost of Christmas Future: Uhh…Bob immediately comes to mind, especially because his witch form looks like a reaper…but he’s not quite menacing enough. Kyubey? No, he has no use for her redemption arc. Origami?? NO, WAIT, HIM. HER FRIEND THAT SHE’S LOOKING FOR. HE’S THE FUTURE GHOST.

Soup guy (“thank you very much” guy): HAMMER. IT’S HAMMER AND HE HAS A COOL HAT. HECK YEAH.

The Debtors: Pretty much everyone in the circus. Kit and Ori are the two women and play a more active role in hammer’s musical number. Nymn is probably the puppet guy. So on and so forth. The debtors probably get a lot more character stuff/moments than in OMT because they aren’t just a flat crowd, and return in the final Christmas scene with a lot more…well, CHARACTER MOMENTS! This will make the final scene longer, but Sun’s role as Goddess instead of tax guy means that it makes some sense.

Yeah that’s it gooooodnight

i had to scroll AGES down in my ask box to find this AHEM

All of this fits well. And (shouting to the sky) SIGILBEAM AAAANGGSSSTTT

ALSO. I CAN SEE THE OBJECTS CAROLING IN MY HEAD I CANT STOP LAUGHING

[cloudsuniversencharacters]

Hey,,so..... I wasn't planning on sending another ask until another week to quite a few more days since I don't want to look too annoying but-- 👉👈

Due to...curious reasons, uhm- How do you think all of the EXEs Except Lord X of course would react to me choosing Lord X over all of them? Like on a scale of 1-10 (1 being chill, 10 being jealous), how do you think they'd be?

((Also sorry that I missed your birthday yesterday :'] So happy belated birthday !!))

(This was answered late, so my bad-)

(It's okay ^^. Anyway, let's see their reactions. By the way, it's okay if you want to send an ask today or tomorrow or any other day, I won't be annoyed.)

X wouldn't care, since he was a little weirded out and plus wasn't interested.

"Eh, at-least I got to eat some food... Humans have... interesting food items though.." X shrugs, not being hurt in any sort of way. But, he knew he had some people out there that liked him.

Sonic.EXE, the original, would be a little angry, since he did all of that for you. Stealing someone's money to pay for the food, and... that's about it. “Oh c'mon, I did all that, and you choose Lord X?!” He sounded... a "little" mad, he'll probably get over it.

Xenophanes would be pretty hurt and sad about it, that's probably most of it. He'd buy you flowers to try and get you back.

OMT would be... well, feral, he would probably go to his world to try and calm down, maybe kill and eat a couple of flickies. He would also probably try to reel you back in, since he is powerful n' all.

Exeller would be a little sad about it, but he would brush it off. At-least he did have someone to talk to, and could take a break from all the killing he is doing. He would write you a note saying, “Thanks for Hanging out with me, I needed that.”

Completed Trilogies

The Omte Origins- Amanda Hocking

[darius-the-fox]

"our origins each vary, but the powers to twist reality remain the same, as an example you may see me like this now"

Static appeared and Omt changed his form into something truly demonic...

"but now im this, our forms shape, and reality twist to what we desire"

[starsaver94]

OK HERE WE GO-

So, this train of thought was spurred on by one small realization: "Huh. MX Never says the "Innocence Doesn't Get You Far" line in the recent demos." And that may seem really unimportant at first but oh boy did it lead me down a rabbit hole.

So, MX's recent characterization has been rather... Befuddling to me. Not something explicitly bad, but rather something I'm simply a bit confused by. So, let's get some bullet points.

Current MX doesn't threaten or do anything scary to Lucas until sort of tricking him to starting the chase.

The way he talks feels very... condescending? Fake? It's hard to describe, but it just feels put on. "Hey there Champ! I left ya a lil something at the beginning of the level. It's a big surprise!" It's just odd to me, in a good way.

He screams more. Quite a lot more. "Lucas!" At the start of the chase, "You aren't gettin' far, Kid!" midway though, he's more vocal overall.

Now, let's compare this to Old MX...

Instead of calling out to Lucas to "Find Him" in his faker form, MX simply calls out his name, in a tone that sounds like he's trying to get his attention.

Instead of getting Lucas to have a head start with a sort of trick, Old MX just transforms completely and brutally and effortlessly murders a toad in his line of sight, before the game warns you to run.

His only lines are "Innocence Doesn't Get You Far", "WAHOOO!", "Get back here!", him calling out for Lucas, and his Lil Monologue at the end.

I could go into more detail, but, from all of this, it seems a bit clear that the character has changed a lot over time, right?

...Right?

...Well, apparently not. Because current MX still has old MX's ending Monologue, but without any of the character to back it up. It's something I've noticed where people don't realize that every single thing a character does is important for their identity and tells you who they are, not just the big speeches or moments dedicated to them. That fact is something I think EYX and OMT both understand, which is part of why I love them so much.

It's so odd, seeing this very vocal and upfront entity of Current MX get very clearly angry after getting out ran by Lucas, especially after yelling at the top of his lungs, only to suddenly start waxing poetic about the game, compared to the Quiet, imposing, brutal entity that was Old MX clearly still wanting to catch Lucas, but being much less personally invested in the matter. (And this is small but old MX's more eloquent than New MX most of the time so them sharing the ending monologue makes that tiny bit of less but that's not as important)

Just some thoughts that were in my head.

TL;DR - Innocence Doesn't Get You Far is a sick ass line.

I understand what you’re saying. It seems like the original version of MX was a bit more subtle (if that’s the right term) with his horror. Not as loud and giving Lucas a sense of false hope by giving him a head start before starting the chase.

The new version seems to be more of a brute by being more loud and showing off how dangerous he is by brutally murdering a Toad in front of Lucas.

[mrdrhenwardhykle]

This totally off topic to mostly everything else that I talk about, but can I just say that I generally don't know how I feel about the 'Sonic.exe/X' character mostly because of obvious boring repetition, lack of actual moral or reason to the plots, and sooort of maybe because of the twisted junk some of its multiple handed-down owners have done; but I am absououtly in love with EXIT CAVE ZONE/Hill.gym so much I literally need to describe how this song and its variations affect the narrative so well

(So you know what I'm talking about pre-ramble, here's the song/s. Feel free to make a choice. The original is somewhat lacking because it's the first and generally before this character got close to being interesting to me; but OTM is my personal favorite. There's also a remix that I like, but it gets a little getting used to compared to the other chorus')

(the original. Not as emotion-evoking as the OMT, but I still like it)

It begins to unnerving; still sounding like a Sonic game but as if some kind of deranged monster was pounding on a piano again and again to the point of breaking bones or skin. It first gives off the feeling of something approaching; slow but guaranteed to eventually catch up no matter what pace you choose. It's not completely antagonizing, however, as a synthesized violin and the chorus come in almost as a display of pity to the victim. There's really nothing that can be done at this point, the voice of the chorus doesn't seem to make that it's goal. It's sympathetic, as if this morally grey onlooker to this tragedy is giving a prayer to the damned. In a way, it's sort of the last relief the player can find (at least compared to the constantly negative 'sonic is god and will eat everybody-ooga-booga' narrative given so far).

But the beat starting off so slow is nothing but wrong. Out of place with everything so far- It's based around a franchise constantly themed with speed. The fastest thing alive has literally turned against you in the worst way imaginable- But your approach to this terrible given fate is a slow and sympathetic pace, as if there was some kind of game to it. As if it was waiting behind; watching as its prey fleas and struggles to its last ability to pick up as much hope as possible- just waiting to see how desperate for hope a person can get. It's just a slow lead and reveal to an inevitable death.

And with each different rendition- is it really enough to call it a death? It's a loop-an unintentional cycle of misery and pain. Death itself doesn't promise the end of the misery-soon enough or later the same slow pace and feeling will come up once more; proving once again to be useless.

Yeah. Sort of silly observation ig. I just think it's kinda weird that it's pretty much the only original song from the first version of this game (That I'm aware of-remember that I'm just babbling but I'm pretty sure). And also gives crumbs of another expectation or feeling towards the story other than 'OOOOOOOOooo Sonic the Hedgehog is gonna getcha OOOOOOOOOOOO!!!'

OMT is doing okay though. It still is making itself a hopeless story, but there's at least a little bit of a plotline and twist to it.

Like I said; I like some of this creepypasta's concepts, I just don't vibe with the whole thing. The idea of making a game character's strongest quality their friend's worst nightmare is generally genius and I think that's what some non-sonic copies miss out on (ex: say if you just did the same thing but with Crash Bandicoot it wouldn't make much sense-because speed isn't something he's known for or can be seen as a scary twist to his character).

I personally like to associate the song with the overall thought of an old game playing the player in general, as it literally kills that theme. And I love seeing accurate and interesting twists to older games.
