on factions
(aka i was thinking about pirates worldbuilding again)
Despite how inclusive the Isles do tend to be to everyone from all walks of life, stereotypes do prevail; it’s just something that comes along with any sort of community where groups are separated in such a way. Few people are outright vicious or hateful about it, and it’s still much better than it was in the past, before the age of piracy was revived.
The differences in the Factions aren’t always outright noticeable, but they do exist. Sometimes it’s something as simple as just the kind of people you see joining or being offered to join the faction itself.
The Kestrels are the most obvious about it; all of the Kestrels are wealthy. Very, very obviously so. The circumstances vary; some Kestrels are old money, descended from generations of wealth. Others are self-made, through hard work and dedication.
Of course, there’s one little Kestrel that doesn’t fit either of these categories, but nobody needs to know that.
The short of it is, if you aren’t wealthy, you won’t be a Kestrel. They go out of their way to name it as their defining quality, that’s just how it is.
The Herons are second on the list, in terms of how apparent this can be. A few Herons are also ā€œlegacyā€ or generational Herons, descended from past Herons themselves. Others don’t have familial ties to the faction, but have family who have done or discovered important things, historically. Still, though, some Herons don’t fit either of these categories, being offered to join purely because they happened to fit the values of the faction.
The Nightingales are much less restrictive. While they do still have preference for those who fit in well with the expectations and values of the Nightingales as a whole, they have a much more diverse group in terms of backgrounds and heritages. All that matters in the end is that you understand what it means to be a Nightingale.
This leaves the Kites; the Kites are on the entire opposite end of the spectrum. While, back in the early days, those in charge were fairly selective, this changed quite a bit over the years. Now, the Kites have pretty much no criteria for who ā€œcanā€ be a Kite. Of course, they still attract a specific sort of person, but the Kites have a rule; no matter who they are, the Kites extend an offer. In some cases, cases that started this rule, the Kites would have ended up being the only person to extend an offer. They’ll even accept those who have been kicked out from other factions, on the grounds that any misdeeds aren’t repeated and weren’t too serious to begin with.
As such, the Kites have the most diverse range of members. While some (one, really) Kites are generational, most come from all walks of life across the seas. Some were (or are) wealthy, some had important families, while others had little or nothing at all before arriving to the Isles.
This, as well as the Kites’ general reputation of being a violent faction, leads them to bear the brunt of harsh stereotypes and prejudices from other factions. The ā€œqualityā€, the appearance, of the Kites’ territory also doesn’t lend well, being much less extravagant than their siblings. (Of course, this isn’t to say that the Kite territory doesn’t look nice or well-kept, just that, compared to the other three, they’re much less visibly wealthy. Much of Kite territory is simple cobble and wood buildings, stone paths worn down to pebbles or gravel roads kicked to the side to reveal the dirt underneath. It often feels more like a childhood fort than a proper faction.)

I think especially at a point where coop feels smth for lucy he would be very mindful in a sense what he says about the brotherhood around lucy specifically bc he knows there was at least something going on there w/them and isn’t trying to even appear like he might be trying to say smth against max specifically for fear of it coming across as jealousy in any way at all.
Like he’s not gonna sugarcoat things if the topic comes up and shit like he didn’t in the finale but he’s not trying to directly influence how she feels about the brotherhood either. And it’s not just bc of the max situation but that is a factor in him being particularly mindful of what he says and how. And I mean like to a degree. Again he’s not gonna sugar coat things but he’s also not just gonna be out there dragging them either even if he could lol

Hello, I would like to request some sfw and nsfw headcannons of Knockout x trans masc human!reader
(Also I absolutely adore your writing <3/p)
Message - I have never done trans before, so I apologize if I mess anything up. I may be not as educated as others are about the topic so my friend is the best teacher to educate me on some stuff! Oh, and thank you all for the compliments! It keeps me from getting unmotivated ;-; We all know that feeling.
Tumblr media
Knockout x Trans Masc Reader Headcanons SFW/NSFW
Summary - Headcanons of Knockout with Trans Masc Reader with NSFW under the "Continue Reading"
Warning - NSFW
SFW
~ When you told him about your transition process, this man was nothing but supportive.
~ Knockout would research everything and would buy you things he thought was useful for your journey.
~ He would catch the knowledge of trans people being in terrible family situations and how society basically does not agree with them. You are lucky your home is earth, because Knockout would've asked Megatron to just explode the damn planet.
~ This man is so protective of you and will make sure you are equipped with a pepper spray or taser before you go out. (Yes you have to explain to him that Jasper is not a popular place, so it is less likely you would have any problems. No, he will not listen.)
~ Jasper people are the type to not question and only care about their own personal business, so you never had any trouble with people harassing you. Knockout will still insist on driving you where to want to go.
~ Want a new closet? He will take you to the mall. Knockout may not be able to go inside, so you send him pictures of outfits you like to hear his opinion of them.
~ Cybertronians have different tastes, but Knockout specifically likes clothes that would show your body more. If you don't like that stuff, Knockout can find other trends to show you that would be great on you.
~ If you already had surgery and fully transitions, he would brag about you all the time about how handsome/beautiful you are.
~ He loves you dearly, he would gossip to you about everything that happened on the ship. If you ever got kidnapped, all the information Knockout gave you could end the Decepticon Faction honestly.
~ Knockout would grab your figure with his digits and twirl you around sometimes to flaunt your clothes.
~ Movie night every Friday? Please?!
~ Sleeping with him is sweet honestly. Knockout would hold you in his hand, peacefully sleeping like he didn't need anything else in this world.
NSFW
~ Before you even did anything with him sexually, he would slide his digits on every part of your body.
~ You look so beautiful to him, telling you that both of you could conquer the world with your beauty.
~ He loves to grab your ass whenever no one is looking. He cannot stop grabbing your squishy flesh body, knowing how soft you are.
~ At first lets be honest, he thought you were going to be super gross in sex. Not understanding the organic body, your privates were a mystery to a cybertronian.
~ First time he did it with you, he was very hesitant. Fortunately the experience made him crave even more of you.
~ The warmth you give to his spike was nothing he ever felt, taking any chance he needs to work for you to cock warm him.
~ Making out is one of the things he does best; kissing you for hours is Knockout's favorite pass time.
~ Eating you out is one of his favorite things to you. Licking or biting your skin until you see marks all over you. Knowing everyone will see the marks when you walk around the ship is all he needs.
~ "Oh babes, bend over again, let me see your beauty-"
~ When Knockout works, he loves when you suck his spike under the desk where no one can see you. It's like a fun challenge to him.
~ "Your stunning dear! Now lets go to round 2-"

y'all i don't actually have a specific headcanon set for p!scar because that can change depending on whether i want him to be the same character as hc8!scar or not
i DO subscribe to boatem = the flying jellie crew tho, SO in the continuities where p!boatem ≠ hc!boatem, here are a couple of headcanons for p!grian and p!pearl specifically (they're the only ones namedropped or alluded to in canon, sorry):
p!grian back wing tats. that is all. pesky birb for a reason :>
p!pearl is named after an ancestor or semi-legendary figure (haven't decided yet) who was in the kestrel faction. the og pearl was an architect for the kestrel tavern (why they have occasionally been nicknamed "pearl doors") + is somehow related to pearl's manifestation in p!saus' chat (ghost parrot chat accompanied past kestrels in life). p!pearl was trained in this building style

hc/headcanons:
vinestaff likes to make pottery, she also likes rock tumbling!!
every faction has a sub faction.
shuriken is a eel. he likes geodes,, and pretty rocks.
skateboard likes coca cola and Dr pepper, no reason it just tastes good. he also likes collecting bottle caps and trading cards for fun
coil and skateboard like showing off their collections of random things. coil likes building Legos with skate, no reason other than he just thinks its fun.
he (coil) will also jokingly will break a little bit of whatever skates building with Legos or knock it down bc its funny, skate doesn't mind this, he does it back and then they help rebuild it :P
skateboard has a friend group that consists of: coil,bb/boom box, sling, shuri, and rocket
rocket does interact with the playgrounders from time to time. he doesn't mind any of them, he just would rather not be associated with playground because a lot of people dislike playground, mostly cuz skate but yuh
thats all of my silly hc. these are mostly tidbits and silly stuff. I don't know how to articulate my words so if this sounds stupid, sorry I tried not to make it sound stupid

Guess who's on the Pirates Traaain
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
P!Scott brain rot lmao
Prettiest pirate in all the seas
He's infected my brain lmao
Got come bonus pics below the cut with some of my own headcanons and what have you
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My version of p!Scott is in fact a trans queer man because I have a fun problem of self projecting on my art <3
I also will be putting in the belief of him being a Ceasg (or along the lines of)
Just sprinkle in like some "first born gets the family curse" trope shenanigans and add it with "oh a maaagic item keeps them from changing" and boom. There's my beliefs and where they lie.
Also that necklace is based on an actual necklace I own and I roughly drew that hand drawing with my own as a references.
I also like the thought of pScott being a map-making nerd who stays up way to late making his new maps look incredible
This adds to the "droppy eye" propaganda I plan on creating with this guy
He's also got a Heron tattoo. Cos it's pretty
I think I'd like to think that everyone gets their Factions Bird tattooed when they join a Faction. Their choice on design/location. Scott just likes the classic look

My current headcanon for Miss Snapdragon and her relation to P!Owen is that she’s his older sister, probably about five or so years older than him. She was married off before Owen got disowned and ran off following her first husband’s death under mysterious circumstances. The second husband died under similarly mysterious circumstances leaving her remarkably wealthy when the wealth of both was combined.
The third husband she pushed down the stairs after a very heated argument.
Alongside running the banana market behind the scenes and the casino on the faction isles, she owns three more casinos elsewhere in Eclesia, two speakeasys in an area where alcohol is banned and those are just the business ventures she tells her little sister about.
Owen has a room at her house but the only time he has really stayed with her for any extended period of time was after Sam died.

Hello I have come to word vomit RGB trio thoughts and headcanons. Beware some of these will probably be nonsensical and not in order.
I think skate has the worst fashion taste out of the three. I can't say much on this though cause I also have an atrocious sense of fashion/lh
Boombox and to an extent Skate talk in 80's slang. Like radical, bodacious, hella, etc. 80's coded boombox just lives in my head rent free and i can't kick him out/silly
Their alcohol tolerance from lowest to highest goes: Skate, BB, Sling
BB and Skate crash at Slingshot's place ALL the time. At this point even Shuri and Vine are used to them just random showing up
^^continuing this I think they like to enter through anywhere but the window. Most especially Skate. BB at the very least is willing to act like a Normal person and use the door SOMETIMES. Skate however if he uses the door you'll bet that he's going in on his board. Whether or not he immediately crashes and breaks something inside is another thing/lh
Sometimes they'll just have Katy Perry Sessions with Shuriken. Like literally just listening to Katy Parry. Don't. Don't ask why I don't know either/lh
^^they have California Gurlz memorized.
If one of them does a crime none of them are snitching. If one goes down they all go down if one admits to it the other two will admit to it too. No bro left behind/silly
Sling is the smartest academically in their group and is probably the best at math. Not saying he's a prodigy im just saying BB and Skate are probably dumb as shit with math /lh+aaff
Sometimes Skate likes to record his Sick Movesā„¢ and sometimes it would Also be in a place he proooobably shouldnt be in so Sling and BB take turns being on either camera duty or watch duty. Whether either of them are good at it is a different discussion/silly
Skate was caught stealing by the police once but BB was there and somehow he managed to trick them into believing he was Skate's lawyer and that he did not steal anything. Sling watched from the distant absolutely flabbergasted
Sling prices his menu very high and whenever someone asks he's just like "Oh yk, inflation!" and somehow it always works
they like setting fireworks off at night. Sometimes BB can't come cause he's too tired from work or something tho so
Despite Slingshot being the most academically smart in the group Boombox is the one who would hesitate when given a big shiny red button that could nuke Crossroads. Sling and Skate would see a shiny red button and go "ooo shiny" then BOOM!!!! /silly
idk if you want this but I have an au with my friend using the skins ingame (and some we made up for it hehe) where Snowboard and Rainbox were highschool best friends and they would get into shenanigans together like light theft (Rain is the distraction), parties maybe, etc andddd I love them very much
Snow in the au has canonically tried to rizz up a girl (in High School) only to bag her boyfriend AND her brother
^^The au takes place years later when Snowboard is in college (in Blackrock college cause there's no faction wars in this au) and when he comes back he finally meets Cozyshot who is Rain's roommate and erm my friend likes skateshot so I think you can tell what happens next (GAY PEOPLE) /silly
Okay im gonna stop rmabling now have a good day silly muah/p
IM GONNA RAMBLE TOO AND Oh my god ur so right on the first one.
SKATE HAS TERRIBLE FASHION SENse. I can smell it. Hes so sweaty he doesnt care ab his looks too much but bb would say "youre not going out like that
YES I AGREE. Boombox is stuck in the 80s and he doesnt want to leave. Im actually picking up these habits i wanna say rad so bad.
Skate being the lowest is the funniest shit wver bc i love bullying his ass. Did you tell i put NO EFFORT in his stupid hc reveal HEELP
I FEEL LIKE ONE DAY THEY MIGHT GET A SECRET HANGOUT PLACE… like fully furinisjed and with ac and all that fancy shit. How? Idk illegally? They probably have board games and dnd sessions with trusted friends who keep the place a hush
Bro theyre not normal they will never be normal… "GUYS HOW DID YOU GET IN" // "We lock picked your door" // "WHAT THE FUCK"
> lowkey skate would learn lock picking for fun and hed get so good at it he would be tempted to steal more stuff
>> that being said.. rob the bank?/ref
LOWKEY i feel like bb was a nerd in his younger years but grew out of it… he would probably like science facts and everyone thinks hes smart but hes not.. AND YES sling being math smart is so real teehee. Hes the expenses guy but also cant stop himself from spending more than he needs to
Skate n BB would get into so much trouble but no one can ever find them guilty in some fucking way and it makes the authorities so mad
Ironically id like to think Zuka easily catches them doing dumb shit but he doesnt care enough to report it
Sling has probably done tax evasion one or two times.. or more….
Ok cute hcs to vomit out… with ur mention of tired boombox i feel like sling and skate would immediately go to bbs place and crash not in a chaotic way but like ogghd.. ƖIKE THEY MAKE HIM FEEL BETTER BY GIVING SNACKS OR MASSAGES TO HELP HIM LOSE STRESS
Literally any time one of the RGB members get their vibes off its instantly to care land bc bcbc bc šŸ˜žšŸ˜žšŸ™šŸ™šŸ˜žšŸ˜žšŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ *sobbing crying throwing up* theyr besties 😭😭 this xan be both platonic or romantic i legit do not care i love BOTH
With that in mind i feel like whenever skate and bb crash over sling would have a few of their favorite pastries from his cafe saved in his fridge… like dog treats LMAOO
This is likge.. dog-cat-dog relationship… but all are chaotic as fuck /silly
YOUR AU SOUNDS SO SILLY PLEASE I WANT TO SEE!!!! I WANNA DRAW EVEN.
that au makes me think of sling with glasses for some reason… i need to draw so bad….!!!!;!2!
And they were roommates /ref+j

Married P and Alice Headcanons
-Alice and P(now going as 'Pietro') have aged very well. P deciding to go back to bouncy fluffy hair but also sporting a well kept beard and has become perfectly broad-chested. The man is built like a swashbuckling hero.
-Both dress very nicely thanks to P's inheritance.
-P choose to keep Alice's surname thus, Pietro Liddel and both are known as Mr. and Mrs. Liddell
-P has decided to become a toymaker while Alice has become a school-teacher. The former getting a significant reputation as 'The Silver-Handed Toymaker' from the locals
-Fortunately P has managed to pass his legion arm off as a prosthetic which given Krat's reputation, the public managed to buy it.
-They look a bit eccentric but not too much. Alice wearing vibrant blues and whites while P has clothing that do give off a "dandyish toymaker" vibe. It's enough to give the vibe while they look like a happy married couple, there's an air of mystery to them that we the viewers know well. Think of fantasy and sci-fi movies of the 1980s like The Pagemaster, The Never-Ending Story, or Back To The Future that feature some kind of shopkeeper or librarian or teacher who has an odd secret.
-Thanks to the @theabyssfairy they got a kiddo, a daughter. Elizabeth "Lizzie" Liddell II, which surprised the couple that P was capable. Granted P when he became human did become...*ahem*...well endowed...and they did...consummated...on their wedding night and did...try...out of curiosity after they felt they were ready to be parents...but they never expected to actually conceive. They were just so happy they both had a family again, and they love their daughter to death.
-Also due to the her father's magical origins(ergo) and her mother's gift of entering other minds, Lizzie finds out she can do magic. I can't figure out what exactly though. So yeah, Lizzie is a sorceress of some kind. And the couple are trying to find out what to do about that without the Alchemists catching wind. God knows what they would do with her.
-Lizzie is daddy's little princess :3
-Of course all of this makes P as what many online to day would call erm...*cough*...a DILF...and he gets a lot of gazes from other ladies which Alice gets possessive "My husband >:T" and of course as Victorian ladies do, they get nosey and ask Alice...certain questions...in regards to conceiving Lizzie.
Her response?
"It was like none of your bloody business"
-Giangio and his faction, if they are the big good as I think they are, have the family under their protection.
-There was a case of family drama of the Liddells when it came to Lizzie being frustrated with all the secrets they gotta keep. But it's typical drama of all teenagers that get resolved. She soon understands why her parents are extremely protective of her, especially when she learns about the alchemists, her late Grandfather, and even Bumby.
-Venigni is Lizzie's Godfather, "Uncle Veni", and Sophia her "Aunt Sophie", Eugenie her ā€œAunt Genieā€ and Nanny her, well, Nanny and Lizzie loves them all and they love her.

Given how the Sith are focused on ambition and achieving things for one’s own benefit, do you think arranged marriage would be commonplace amongst the Lost Tribe of Sith? I mean, Gavar did try to pimp off Vestara to Ben so she could seduce him and turn him to the dark side…
Incredibly common! Though I don't think its usually an 'arranged by other people' situation and a lot more of marriage to cement a personal alliance thing. I have so much to say on this under the cut:
The legal function of marriage would be significantly more invested in the Tribe. Like why would a Sith want to tie a primary bank account with someone else? To give someone else legal autonomy over you in times where you're impaired?
The thing is, that despite all the mistrust that must exist in the Tribe, they haven't fallen apart. If every single person was as mistrusting and as backstabbing as they claim to be, Kesh wouldn't have lasted a century.
There have to be rules that are so ingrained that no one would dare break them. Reinforced by tradition and loyalty to the tribe as a whole, with strong consequences for breaking them. (I don't remember who said it, if it was in the Lost Tribe novel or fotj, but they said that "you can't kill to gain power, but you can kill to stay in power." so we know some of this exists, at least with murder)
@i-think-in-metaphors and I have talked about this a lot. (you can assume a good chunk of our headcanons were developed together, we've been talking about this stuff for years)
And it seems likely that there's a lot of emphasis on capital P Promises (as opposed to a simple agreement, probably some ritual and witnesses involved)
A bit outside of the headcanon realm and into the "we're just making shit up' realm: We've actually created different Keshiri words for "marriage" to describe the differences.
Qusaten: a vow of emotional partnership.
This can take a lot of forms but is pretty much what it says on the tin. A qusaten with romance involved would probably stipulate their agreed upon definition of infidelity (like would it be cheating if your ordered to seduce that guy for information? In a society where such orders are given, this is absolutely something you discuss) I don't see the Lost Tribe as having much focus on monogamy, so you probably see a lot of variety in relationships. (Sidenote: I don't think homophobia exists as a norm in the tribe. You will be assumed bisexual unless you state otherwise)
Its likely someone will have 3-4 Qusaten throughout their life, more or less depending on the person and the strictness of their vows.
Lakket: Vow of joining of family, estates, taxes and other legal matters.
0 romantic connotations with this one, it is a vow about sharing resources. Adoption would fall under this category, but only the parents would swear it to the child. Also is just as likely to be between two best friends as it is to be romantic partners.
It is unlikely a person will have more than one of these if they have one at all.
Shante: a Lakket or, more often, multiple Lakket arranged for political or economic reasons
This would be your classic 'arranged marriage to bring peace to our kingdoms' thing. It can be a political faction thing or literally a 'our extended families are pooling resources now'. BIG deals. week-long celebration stuff here.
Not common among the average person.
Nahset: Both Qusaten and Lakket exist.
Not necessarily in the same ceremony, any couple who have sworn both a personal vow and a material vow of togetherness. Closest to marriage in American culture
Moderately common. If someone has sworn Lakket outside of Shante they're pretty likely to also swear Qusaten to this person.
---
Additional notes:
Vows cannot be compelled by anyone but its participants.
There are other kinds of vows that we haven't named, (like doctors? absolutely swearing to a Sith version of the hippocratic oath)
Orders compelling someone to break a vow are not allowed ( and incredibly taboo. High Lord tells you to seduce that guy and you say "actually that goes against my Qusaten" it is the High Lord who is embarrassed.)
Breaking any kind of Vow is a super big deal and will exclude you from pretty much anything that requires one. (releasing from a vow is not the same as breaking one) ( a doctor breaking the Sith hippocratic oath may mean they cant get married later) ( you do NOT make Vows unless you intend to keep them)
Basically under these rules, it would be totally cool if Gavar had just a Qusaten with Lahka, but if Vestara hadn't been force sensitive, there'd be no guarantee that she'd inherit any of his stuff, and Lahka definitely wouldn't. The scandal of Gavar's relationship would be more that he's swearing resource bond with someone who can't reciprocate in the same way.

Designed a random fire caste T'au dude/dudette a few days ago because I was in a character design mood.
Gave this one more artistic liberties than how I previously did with T'au. Been wanting to do my own take on the species for a while, and do expect more art of them to come since they're my favourite faction and I feel they don't get a lot of fanart. Took inspiration from monk outfits and gave them super sharp dewclaws cuz why not.
Included both male and female heads. I like the idea/speculation that T'au have very little sexual dimorphism with the shape of their noses being one of the few (If not, the only) thing to tell them apart. Yes that also means that female T'au don't have breasts and that's also my headcanon for them :P plus I don't think I've seen it anywhere in the lore that says they do or any official art depicting them with it.

Random Minecraft headcanons I have cus why the hell not
-The zombies look exactly like Steve, but yknow, dead
-Allays once used to inhabit villages as they liked to play with younger villagers, but pillagers raided the villages and kidnapped the allays with the goal to convert them into vexes
-Armadillos will frequently pluck out a spider's eye for food, which is why spiders tend to run away from them
-The End is a dead universe which grew its own, small ecosystem that could only thrive in its cold, dark void.
-Ancient Builders has many factions im different parts of the world, some even evolved to adapt to their land
-Villagers will catch glimpses of Steve running around the world and will talk about him amongst not only eachother, but other villages too
-If Herobrine were real, hed take on the appearence of anyone he looks at, but with those white eyes ofcourse
-If a baby piglin steals your gold, they will usually try to eat it first thing, when that doesnt work, they chuck it at whoever they please
-Villages were built by ancient builders who discovered the humanoid villagers and wanted to see if they could start their own society. When the villagers started obtaining mending books from seemingly nowhere, the ancient builders realized they were far more intelligent they gave them credit for.
-On that note, the reason emeralds are rare to come by naturally is because ancient builders used them to try and kickstart their villages' economies.
I'll probably post more of these at some point :p

his parents stared at him bleakly from across the square, and finn dug his claws into the kite banner a little more fiercely, like his doubt might pull it away. none of them said anything, just stared for a long moment, until finn turned away to join a group of kites that were coalescing near the road to the tavern.
he knew where he belonged. —
a little p!finn backstory post for you! finn is a pirate who was born and raised in the faction isle lifestyle, except that his parents- arthur and mary blackwood- are both kestrels. they’ve cut off contact with him since he chose to join the kites instead of sticking with the kestrels, and his factioning experience was not a pleasant one. he’s fine now though! (< blatant lie)
(fun fact: this piece was where my ā€œon the day of the factioning, each new recruit gets a banner with their faction’s colors and symbol on it (as seen in the info on the wiki)�� headcanon was born!)

continuing from mandible headcanon I imagine that the type of mandible depends on the faction the demon was assigned. Also the color is the same as the horns :D
I think that demons from thieves den have the longest mandibles with hooks on the end to latch onto stuff. thieves den mandibles could also probably work as feelers too :P
blackrock would have the shortest mandibles but they’d probably have multiple (like 4-6). most likely would work as blunt weapons rather than a knife or smth
playground would have the most jagged mandibles and also the most flexible (they probably cut themselves a lot on them)
finally, lost temple would have the thinnest mandibles (used for piercing and stuff). they wouldn’t be that flexible tho :P

Hello hello!! Absolutely pumped for the Myth’s Voyage AU :DD!!
What made you pick certain characters for certain roles? I’m particularly interested by Owen as Antinous šŸ‘€šŸ‘€
Bare with me this is gonna be a doozy
I'll be honest. It all started with me being real emotionally attached to p!Will & me falling down a rabbit hole of associating the song "Open Arms" with him because- even if I'm not fully read on p!Will's story & character- the way I've come to view him is a relatively forgiving and optimistic type of person. So him as Polities came natually.
I also have a frequent habit of doing a thing where when I associate one character to one song/character of a musical, I start to try and figure if there's way to fit in other characters.
I believe what came next was Sausage and if I recall correctly, that was due to 1. Me just liking Sausage all together and 2. Me seeing him as the most "Captian-Like" guy in pirates. Also revolving around headcanons, others' interpretations, and maybe an artist or two's ways of drawing him. After that, Joel & Hermes as Penelope and Telemachus came pretty easy. I've also played around with previous ideas of "What if Joel was in Pirates SMP" and added in my constant Empires Brainrot ā„¢ļø, that all just fell into place.
I believe Lizzie was my first established God cos. Giant fish/ocean associated person, yk. And then Jimmy as Polyphemus due to fishy relations and then I think Fwhip was actually my next one due to the "silly & unhinged" vibes I got from Epic Hermes. Then with a lot more stubborn brain storming, more and more gods fell into place as I started following an Empires Season 1 pattern with the Gods
Krow was also a fun one to workshop in cos I also don't know much about his Canon character but what I do know & just the fascination I've gotten with him, I thought he fit the role of Eurylochus pretty well. Mostly on the side of more of a survivor when it comes down to a "You vs Me" mentality & leaning more on aggressive tactics when it comes to handling certain situations. He is one of the ones I'm certain doesn't fall into complete Canon-type of personality, but I like how my au's Krow is a lot.
Now. The fun situation with the suitors and Ithica in general.
I can explain a bit further if anyone's interested, but the way my storyline worked out is that there's actually no Herons that are part of Sausage's crew in the story. They're either still on the Faction Isles or traveling elsewhere. Having said that, when I came around to figuring out Antinous, it was right when I was finding out very bare-bones about him. And given that the Heron characters will ideally be characters shown on "Ithica" I was working to see if anyone would fit that roll.
Having said that, Antinous was noted down in my "Working-Out" list with the note of "Mr. Steal your wife and kill your son" and while discussing my character plans with my partner, we started to joke about Antinous being Owen. Given her more player-esque personality, at the time I figured it'd be a decent fit- or at least a place holder- for a character who I started to think was just someone wanting to court "Penelope".
However, thinking more on it & finding out better how Antinous plays in this story, I started getting more invested in the idea of Owen still being him. The idea of Owen becoming a villain, manipulative with his charm and almost vindictive in her motives just started to appeal more and more to me.
When this takes place, it's 20 years since the rough-end of Pirates SMP, following Epic the Musical's timeline. A lot can change in a person in 20 years. Seeing the Factions fall, loves in your life die or disappear, people coming into power that you feel either don't deserve it or are strangers who don't understand all that's happened here or you feel are too weak irresponsible to handle it. It can grate on a person, certainly.
P!Owen is, once again, another character I'm unfortunately not fully familiar with, though that may change if i have a chance to watch his pov in the future. And who knows, maybe I'll workshop the story, change e!Owen's personality or motives, maybe even choose someone else entirely to fit the role.
But as it stands, the idea of e!Owen, 20 years in the future with heavens knows how much baggage and pent up anger and frustrations left on his shoulders starting to get desperate or almost hungry even for some sort of control or power or just even a sense of stability in her life just seems to be a very interesting & fun-to-work-with storyline to me.
Thinking about seeing Owen getting aggressive and animalistic and breaking that carefully-crafted facade of charm and control when it comes to fighting and trying to kill someone just. It's so interesting and fascinating in my mind, you've no idea.
And, again, I'm awfully weak to villain Owen nonesense so that certainly doesn't help.
There you have it. My essay & a half summary over some of my reasonings.
Again, things are always subject to change and sometimes I get a little Silly with my trains of thoughts but, hey, it'll be fun either way. If you're interested in me trying to explain my through process for more characters, feel free to ask, I just figured I'd keep this as short as i can physically manage. If it comes off as a bit rambling or you want me to clear anything up, you're always welcome to ask. It's technically super late for me so my writing compression might be a bit off.
Tl;Dr, I zone out to music and play "Song Association Games" too much & Owen as Antinous started off as a silly joke but now it's eating my brain whole so ĀÆ\_(惄)_/ĀÆ
