Reblog to beat them all up (or only some, you can be selective)

SkekAyuk was the Skeksis' Gourmand and counterpart to urAmaj the Cook.

SkekEkt X SkekAyuk (EktAyuk) - The Dark Crystal

Skeksis are a violent evil species who all fight each other and backstab. Not SkekEkt and SkekAyuk. They hang out, gossip, discuss their tastes and health, and SkekAyuk held a welcome home banquet just for SkekEkt. There is a reason why the fandom has shipped them and seen them as the Gomez and Morticia of TDC for years.

SkekVar/SkekZok - The dark crystal

Big man x freak man

Can you imagine the powerhouse that SkekEkt and SkekAyuk would be as a pumpkin carving duo? Ektachrome knows designs and Ayuk knows food so they work together to create to most gorgeously elaborate jack o' lanterns in all of Thra.

Bonus of course is SkekAyuk using all the carved out pumpkin parts to make an utter feast.

Oh man, that'd be amazing to see, and to eat! Those two would be so amazing at holidays in general.

Also, gotta bring this gem by @lickoutyourbrains back!

Look skekAyuk may have scarred my mind and eyes with the Three Dicks Pissing Scene BUT. SOMEHOW. He's one of the most fascinating Skeksis to me.

This guy had passion, a job he not only enjoyed but was good at! He was a gifted chef, closer to a Gourmet than a Gourmand. But at some point that passion started dying, being replaced by gluttony so extreme it puts him at risk at times.

It's... almost sad, in a way. It wasn't as if circumstances forced him to abandon his work. The Castle no doubt has sizable kitchens with plenty of resources, and he held a crucial role as a provider to the other Skeksis. Knowing his passion and talent just... withered away like that, it's one of the best examples of how far the Skeksis have fallen, to me at least. Makes you wonder what kind of individual positive traits or skills the other Skeksis once had that have been lost over time.

Hola, I remind you all the fact that thanks to this guy we know the skeksis have three pirulines

Late TDC modern easter AU

Ordon and Mayrin both competed to have the ‘best egg hunt’ at their respective houses since they have the biggest in the neighborhood for around five trine when their kids were young. Shoni and Kam’Lu get so annoyed with them trying to one up each other in the neighborhood, they go behind their backs and create a big egg hunt that spans both properties. They ended up sleeping on the couch the next day but both agreed it was worth it to end the rivalry.

Eventually, through the hunt the families became friends, particularly Ordon, Kam’Lu and Bellanji and Mayrin, Shoni, Fara, Laesid and Mera.

Dads would grill, moms would make decorations and sometimes plant flowers.

After that, the annual egg hunt happened at two locations, one at their homes and the other at the castle

The Skeksis feel weird at the idea of hunting/eating eggs, so the egg hunt at the castle is purely chocolate. Also things like arathim or makrak are painted on them. The castle is usually for older kids and the younger ones go to Ordon/Mayrin’s because of it (except their bio kids they stay when they’re older or are expected to).

SkekAyuk gets tired of finding places to hide the eggs so Tek makes a machine to do it for him at the castle.

SkekEkt likes to paint all the eggs at the castle

The winner of either egg hunt gets a special basket which is filled with expensive stuff (year free to the movies, skip out on tithes, etc).

Eventually as the trine go on Rian, Brea, and Seladon want to see what the egg hunt is like at the castle after doing the Ordon/Mayrin thing for so long. Tavra disagrees till she sees that Onica is going so goes along (even if she doesn’t agree as both sets of parents said no as Brea can’t go till 15 and she’s 14 so it’ll be ‘too much for her’ and ‘unfair to let anyone go without her’).

They go with Gurjin, Tolyn, Kylan, and Juni. The maudras and others from the local high school are there as well.

Deet doesn’t want to go as she likes spending time with her family. Naia also doesn’t participate as she knows she’ll get too competitive

She knows that because when she was younger her parents took her to Ordon/Mayrin’s and she came to blows with Tavra when it had been a tie and the adults were told they should share the prized basket.

Anyway, for the annual egg hunt, after the kids set up they sneak out.

No one notices as it’s usually a lot to set up so the parents think they’re just ‘around’.

Eventually, Laesid and Bellanji arrive with Pemma and Bell says goes over to the dads and say it’s great they’re being less strict with their kids.

Ordon’s like “what do you mean?” And he’s like “Well, aren’t they going with Gurjin and his friends this trine?”

The moms are informed.

They are PISSED

Fara flies to the castle, makes a scene, and they all get ground for unum. Not before Rian won the basket though.

Gives basket to Brea. They’re all still grounded though and end up doing community service.

Seladon and Rian take most of the blame.

They also ended up getting banned from the castle festivities because Brea ended up in the restricted section of the library, Rian used some less than ideal methods to win the hunt, and Seladon yelled at everyone to follow the rules, making some of the more sensitive kids cry (mainly Kylan).

They all agree next trine maybe after the egg hunt at home they can go watch a movie or something.

Ordon also gets temporarily demoted because of the whole thing. Mayrin has to ask the lords to give him his position back (which he does thankfully).
