the rest of the cast got their new song covers, so i wanted to try putting the others in a band :>
i did want to make it look a bit like an album cover but i have no idea how those are designed so eh?? i also couldn't think of any band or album/song names so. if anyone has any ideas...
#art#obey me#obey me raphael#jtta ik#obey me mephistopheles#obey me thirteen#from left to right they are: lead singer/rhythm guitar - drummer - lead guitar - bass#tbh any of them could've taken any role but bassist girl thirteen spoke to me and raph canonically sings well so that felt like it fit#i did consider ik as lead but she'd absolutely shred on the drums. she has so much pent-up rage to let out...#in context this is for a music festival diavolo's putting on but it'd be a fun au as well#i like to think thirteen is the overwhelming favourite of all the fangirls#also in terms of band name...#i was thinking something based on the fact that there's one of each species (human/demon/angel/reaper) but what word can i use for that#jo has suggested something involving the numbers 3 and 4 for 3 realms and 4 members#3.4HZ Harmony was the best we could come up but it feels like there should be a sorta other-world element to it#then again if it's an au then i guess they'd all be humans anyway#ah whatever#life and work related obligations have been growing so naturally i've been starting a bunch of creative endeavours to try to get away from#is this a long term good thing for future career prospects? probably not. but i'd rather be happy#the unknowables

The first real interaction with Scarab and Liam! Infodump under the readmore
Scarab was assigned to keep an eye on Liam by Orbo under orders from THE Boss. He wasn't to pleased by the task because it meant taking a pause from his god auditor duties, but obviously couldn't say no to it. (Though he did complain someone else could easily have handled judging a mortal on if they deserve to become a cosmic entity)
The order was partially to judge their worthiness, but mainly to keep tabs on them for reasons.
He just popped out of a portal one day pretty much right in front of Liam while they were out exploring and got right up in their space.
While initially intimidated by him, Liam gets used to him and his check ins pretty quickly.
Liam, and their Finn and Jake, eventually break through his tough shell and (he will admit to no one but them) he sincerely cares about all of them.
The insect people of Liam's world are somewhat weirded out by him. Since despite him looking insectoid something doesn't feel like them. The only one completely unfazed by him is Liam's mom, Vera.

A while ago I made my best interpretation from memory/assumption of a relationship chart for castleaudios’ Glenwood universe because I love it soooooooo much and was trying to explain some of the characters to a friend, and I realized it’s really hard to explain LOLL so I thought I’d post it for the Glenwood season 1 recap occasion since I’m about to get into the video!
[CW for series spoilers on this chart if you haven’t listened to it btw]
#this series is so easy to get fixated on its sooo good#if u guys like audio stories and reader/listener insert stuff and supernatural shenanigans hit it up !!!#I don’t asmrpost much bc I tend to enjoy it in my own little world but my friends knowwww how bonkers I’ve been abt glenwood#I have fic wips and everything I’m trying to get some of them to listen but#it’s hard (and I love and respect them for it. BUT. BUT.)#anyway I spend too long making this so I figured I’d post cause it seems like there’s a little fandom for it which makes me sooooo happy !!#I hope I got everything right like I said it was all memory/assumption#castleaudios#castleaudios glenwood#glenwood series#asmr#be niceys to me abt it btw I’m shyyy but I think it came out nice !#rachelle’s is red w no heart btw bc it’s sorta posed as romantic or flirty or whatever but she sucks and it’s fake#fuck rachelle all my homies hate rachelle#canon one at least. friend au is acceptable

Stranger Who Wears My Face (Spider Verse AU)
Summary:
He shoved that train of thought away before it drove him into further panic, tightening his grip on her shoulders to reassure himself as the confusion in her green eyes–
Green?
His mom’s eyes weren’t green.
Or
Miles realizes his situation a little earlier than in the movie. It changes a lot.
Chapter One (910 words)
He slipped through his window, his suit slick with rain and dirt and torn around the shoulder but that was hardly the first thing on his mind. He slumped to the ground, his breath coming out ragged and desperate.
“I’m home,” he whispered in the darkness of his room, dark spots swimming in his vision. The words repeated over and over again in his mind, a soothing balm to the jagged panic he’d been operating on for hours.
“Miles?”
He shot up at his mother's voice, grabbing his jacket– why did it seem so much more green than usual– and throwing it on hastily as his door creaked open.
Rio Morales stood in front of his door, an eyebrow raised curiously as she held up a laundry basket. “... Is now a bad time?” she said slowly, her eyes narrowing in confusion.
Miles brushed past her question, stumbling forward as his legs ached with each movement and holding her by the shoulders to make sure she was real. “Am I too late? Are you guys okay? Are you okay?” he choked out desperately because he needed to know, needed to know that she was okay, that Dad was okay, that Spot hadn’t gotten to them, that Miguel hadn’t got to them–
He shoved that train of thought away before it drove him into further panic, tightening his grip on her shoulders to reassure himself as the confusion in her green eyes–
Green?
His mom’s eyes weren’t green, they were brown like his only a little darker.
A knot formed in his stomach, confusion and panic jumbling his thoughts as he tried to make sense of the situation.
Was she wearing contacts?
Was it just the light reflecting off her eyes weirdly?
The knot grew tighter.
“Miles?”
Her voice sounded different, almost far away as he stepped back away from her and looked around his room slowly.
It was… different.
His art table was shoved off to the side and the piece he was working on before meeting Gwen was replaced with a painting of a beautiful mansion, his posters were covered with artwork or missing, his bookshelf wasn’t in the right position, the figurine Gwen had ripped out of the package wasn’t where she left it, some of his books were missing, the vase was empty even though he remembered refilling it just this morning, his sheets were different–
This wasn’t his room.
This wasn't his room.
That wasn’t his mom.
This wasn’t his jacket.
This wasn’t his universe.
As if to emphasize the fact, his body glitched, excruciating pain shooting through his body as his ears rang and everything ached with terrible, all-consuming agony.
He wasn’t sure what sound he let out as he stumbled, grabbing onto his art table to steady himself only for it to give out beneath him as he slipped to the ground.
His mom– not his mom, she wasn’t his mom, his mom was still in danger, his dad was still in danger, he failedfailedfailed– dropped the laundry basket and rushed to his side, eyes wide with terror and confusion.
“Miles?! Miles, what was that?! Are you okay?!” she asked frantically, reaching out to touch him, comfort him, try to fix what was wrong but she wasn’t his mom.
Miles scrambled away and stumbled to his feet, the knot in his stomach constricting to the point where he couldn’t breathe and his body felt like it had been set aflame.
The spider that bit him hadn’t been from his universe, it had been from another universe– this universe.
Universe 42.
He was stranded in a universe that wasn’t his with no way out, no way to get home, and no way to save his dad. He would glitch out of existence, his dad would die for making Captain, and his real mom would be alone because he failed.
The skin on his neck prickled with warning and Miles shot to his feet just as a familiar figure– nononopleasenotyou– walked through the doorway of his bedroom. A figure he hadn’t seen in over a year because he had been at their funeral.
Uncle Aaron.
Miles stared at him, breathless and terrified as his lungs refused to do their job and his heart thundered in his chest.
His uncle looked like he’d been cut out of the photo album Miles had spent months crying over, the gray in his beard serving as the only difference.
“Rio? Miles? Is everything okay?” Uncle Aaron spoke with the voice of a ghost long faded, the sound reverberating in Miles’ head as he tried to process the situation and find a solution only to find his mind empty.
His not-mom said something but it didn’t register beyond the panic in her tone and the immediate concern it brought to his uncle’s face.
“Miles?” Uncle Aaron repeated, his eyes knitted into a deep frown as he reached out toward Miles carefully.
“Yeah?”
The voice that answered wasn’t his own– it was similar enough but it held an accent similar to his mother’s as it carried across the apartment.
Uncle Aaron and his not-Mom’s faces went slack with horror, confusion, and suspicion all at once as the footsteps that echoed in the apartment grew closer.
Move, his senses screamed but his feet remained glued to the ground as another figure appeared in the doorway.
“What’s wro–”
Startled hazel eyes stared into his and Miles did the only thing he could in the face of his counterpart.
He ran.

okay abt to sleep but consider: AU where cassidy survives but only because her brother is killed instead and she is the most vengeful, angry 13-year-old ( or older, if it's years later ) who will do anything to find out and literally actually kill william herself—
#☽—— ⸢ ooc ⸥#☽—— ⸢ wishlist ⸥#f n a f /#murder mention tw#child death mention tw#'why wouldn't she find proof and report him' because she doesn't trust the world and DEF not the law#but also because she wants to kill him and you know what good for her#anyway this is prob the singular circumstance where i'd do an au where she lived#i think her dynamic with any william would be CRAZY if she started to suspect him#esp because i HC she went to the diner a LOT as a kid ( esp w/ her brother ) in any verse#because it was an escape from home life#and i'm not opposed to her ( in any verse again ) having had a decent relationship with william#because you know the manipulative bastard targets victims who need / want something or who have shitty lives#PS /heavily/ implies that with fruit m.aze and midn.ight motorist#tbh she's the definition of sb who needs any adult whatsoever to give a shit abt her#i think the idea that she finally sorta trusts him & obv he horrifically betrays that trust works well even in canon verse#on an unrelated note i think her and mike could've been friends or at least friendly given that i write cass as a bit older#than the other victims. i think she would see his whole 'demonized by the community thing' & Get It#because they don't generally like her much either. she's rebellious kinda has an attitude very androgynous in the 80s etc

Did I miss a chapter in kendis lore? Who's austyn? 👁️👁️🫣🫣
I also had another question where do u find such gorgeous face claims? And how do u come up with such great oc designs? 👀👀
you're so cute. Kendis lore 233we q<3
Well, since you asked [and I don't get to talk about austyn a lot] Okay, so TL;DR TIME.
Og, OG Kendis - Kendis Crawford Gagne - lost her mom. Rather young from cancer [if I recall right]. It definitely impacted her a lot. However, when I ended up playing Kendis in another RP game, I really liked the backstory we [me and her older Ben's wrietr] had for the mom [we ended up getting her played too for a bit which was FUN!] i was like what if she lived~~ But I also wanted the impact of lost in Kendis' history [bc im unimaginative and couldn't think of another trauma point --- though I ended up doiing so, but that's another story], I came up with Austyn.
Austyn Blanchard basically - or actually - was Kendis' first love. But she died when Kendis was eighteen thanks to drunk driving [I can't remembebr if I said Austyn's or the other driver's. probably both]. Austyn was very much teen Kendis' opposite? In a sense that her family was wealthy - where as Kendis' had been lower middle class and was moving toward middle middle by the time Kendis came around/grew older - and popular ... where as Kendis' mother was seen as an outsider and that weird witch woman. Because she was bi and Kendis' parents were polyam.
Anyway they weren't in each other's circle but came to know each other bc Kendis babysat Austyn's younger sibs. They fell in love but it was hard for Kendis to say the L world and Austyn could never publicly date a woman because her parents were super christian, and a face of that community. [They had plans of being together after HS!!] But then Austyn died. LMAO.
It's in part why Kendis ended up going through to medical school, because that had been their dream. Austyn as a lawyer and Kendis as a doctor [for KCG it had been bc her mom's death. Death leading to healing and ambitions etc etc]
Anyway, it DEVASTATED Kendis. And if it wasn't for her brother Ben -- yikes. Anyway, they moved past it but they also ... kinda didn't lmao.
[I also played around with the idea that Austyn might've been the reincarnated love of Kendis' past life*. But I never settled on it because I'm not a big fan of soulmates.]
If you want to be sad, here is their playlist. And their tag.
[I shall answer your question in another post bc this shit is long.]
#*fun fact he died as well lmao#kendis x austyn#insight: kendis crawford louel#anon#grapecase answers#austyn was WASP -- except she was ... half asian#and that [as well as her being queer] is something i think she felt she had to ... live up ... against?#also her being the oldest daughter [if i remember right] and her family being in a position of power and prestige#a lot was on her shoulders#it is kind of tragic#kendis' 'unrealized' first love#mutual pining to a different level#if i recall correctly they had a big fight before austyn died#roflmaqawe#lmao bc im a mean clown#long post#i do have two austyn lives aus tho#one in an opposite world with opp kendis#and a sorta revised canon a friend and i chatted about but didn't do much with. it would've ended up in a polyam#tho i do have a playlist for them too but it's a mess#it's still in my heart tho

probably talked abt it or mentioned it on the drawing back then but some things abt Dylan getting Schrodinger in the western au:
was thinking he's out doing tasks for the day, possibly get info for jobs, going around town, getting supplies etc. he steps out of one of the general stores by a near by town, w food and other supplies for him and the rest of the gang, when he see's a poor lil cat near by wandering alone, possibly hungry.
Dylan being Dylan he automatically goes over to the cat, he's a bit dirty but he's very friendly and sweet especially w strangers, Dylan's already in love w the fuzzy guy and totally distracted from the task he's even supposed to be doing lolol he spends a lot of time sitting near him and petting him, even giving him some canned fish as a treat.
some time later Dyl realized how much time he wasted just spending time in town playing and feeding his new friend, hurrying off to get to his horse and not get distracted even more, he looks back to the little feline sitting looking at him patiently before hopping up on the saddle. as dramatic as it sounds, he couldn't turn away from him after looking at him in the eyes, he felt like his heart would shatter if he abandoned his new friend, so ofc Dylan scoops him up and rides back to camp, carefully as he can, w his new best friend and pet Schrodinger 💕
and ofc, since Dylan founded him and took him in, plus bonding w him, he takes the most responsibility to look out and care for him. Schrodinger also stays/sleeps in Dylan's room but he still roams around freely elsewhere in camp. Schrodinger is also like a huge support to Dylan bc I hc he gets him after losing his hand (in the au) so having a lil friend by his side helps him a lot 💖
#text#western quarry au#*hands u lore abt dylan and his cat that u didn't ask for* :)#this was mostly inspired talking abt au dylan and schrodinger in dms earlier plus idk the world building and scenery/life of rdr2 also#brings me inspo when i imagine lil scenarios w the au ahdkdjf#i imagine the gangs hideout is sorta like the lodge in canon but they have a campsite in the woods as their base#and idk i just imagine if one of the counselors needs to get something or travel somewhere there'll be towns and shit nearby#(if u know the rdr2 its not that super close w the camp and towns lol but yeah thats how i imagine okay ramble over bye lmao)

“W-Well, you deserve to sleep comfortably too, Emily!” he insisted right back, as he sat a little more upright: Quite honestly, he’d be more than happy to give her his bed...but he also knew (even before she said so aloud) that she wouldn’t want to deprive him off the bed (especially after he’d just begun getting used to sleep in it...), leaving them once again at a bit of a stalemate...
(For a brief moment, the idea of the two of them sharing the bed crossed his mind, but he very quickly dismissed it, as his face suddenly turned white-hot behind the mask; he supposed that was one good thing about having it, so that Emily didn’t see him blush so hard and ask what the matter was...)
As much fun as it was to playfully to volley teases and arguments back and forth, Randall was now well aware of the tiredness beginning to sink in for him as he sat in his seat, eyelids beginning to grow heavy: Between the rainy, moody skies outside, the rhythm of the rain on the roof, and his own overall tiredness, his will to stay awake was beginning to ebb, as he stifled a little yawn (trying not to appear as tired as he was), saying (as one last weak protest), “I really don’t mind if you take the bed, Emily, r-really, I-I can get perfectly comfortable on the lounger...”
#((exactly! it's sorta like a distorted mirror image of canon; with the truth not coming to light in the wake of death))#((and ultimately ending with randall and emily running away together-only here in this au they at least get to be alive in doing so))#((unlike in canon when they had to marry/move away together post-mortem!))#((and as for future rps we certainly have a lot of options! 'death of a bachelor' would be GREAT; even with all the angst))#((and we defidently have the revamped 'even a man who is pure of heart'; that's one i would love to do!))#((i'd also be down for trying out that 'mummy' au we discussed a LONG time ago; with randall being a peat bog mummy))#((who reanimates and seeks to reconnect with emily in the modern world!))#((so all of those are all options i'd be more than down for; as you said we've got a lot of rp left to go in this one))#((so we don't have to decide right away but still; it's interesting to think ahead a little!))#((hmmm...did we have any others with june and wilhelm lined up in there somewhere? i don't think we did))#((but i wouldn't say no to seeing them again in an rp somewhere in there! :D))#outofhatboxes#beatingheart-bride#V:Phantasm of the Mansion

I'm gonna say it now, before I get into what I actually want to say because this fandom can get wildly toxic; but this applies to ships too. (can we please stop fighting over them already?)
Fan creations have long since disregarded canon, and I don't see why the UTMV would be exempt.
I love writing Nightmare's Gang as sympathetic characters who love one another and would die to keep the others safe. I sometimes indulge in reading and writing Dream as a bad brother. Sometimes I do write Nightmare as a bad person.
An old saying of mine that I used to use rather frequently, which came about due to the nature of multiverses (especially with characters like Ink, Error, and their variants) , is that there will always be a multiverse where all your headcanons are canon!
There's not a right or wrong way to see this (or any, really) fandom! That's the beauty of fan works! It's all how you want it to be!
Something I see a lot in the UTMV fandom nowadays is people talking about canon. "Canon Nightmare wouldn't act like that," "Ink is morally gray," that type of stuff.
The issue is that UTMV started out as a community project and will continue to be a community project. Fanon is incredibly important to certain pillars of the fandom. People are allowed to interpret the characters differently!
It's important to recognize the source material and respect it, but you must also respect different creator's stories. This isn't a community based around one big canon source material. It's based around countless comics, animations, characters, and fanfics that have been shared for years now.
People are not just going to abandon ideas they have loved for years because of the canon of the source AU. I LOVEE seeing canon Nightmare stuff, but I love dadmare or any other interpretation just as much!
In the UTMV fandom, canon and fanon literally have to coexist. It's no fun otherwise.
#hugging this post#squeezing tight and never letting go#makes me happy#those who knew me back when i was on wattpad#they know i used to write ink with almost normal emotions#yeah i was a lot younger and newer to the fandom#but he was a comfort character at the time and i saw him as a highly sympathetic character who struggled with his emotions sometimes#i write him a bit more morally gray than i used to#but that's okay#i have new headcanons and ways to write ink#not to mention how i write horror#he's so far off from his au's canon and i'm well aware#i want him to be soft and cuddly with a mountain of food related issues#because he's just that#soft but broken by his world#utmv#in regards to the sorta out of place ship mention#i used to ship crossmare quite a lot#still fond of the ship with how i see both characters#anyway#someone tried to verbally fight me in my dms saying cross would never and that he would be with dream#earlier on#before i wrote nearly anything for this fandom#i did ship cream#and got jumped by a crossmare shipper#the twins have a major shipping war that i refuse to partake in#i now firmly believe that cross would choose to remain single#nightmare and horror might make a cute couple#and dream belongs with blue and ink#but that's just me

I did not care at all for Aizen Sosuke when I first read bleach. I found him boring, and worst, unthreatening.
So it's pretty jarring for me that I have been OBSESSED with him in your AU. I'm rotating him at great speed
Walt Disney was a jackass who was flat-out wrong about a lot of very important things, but he employed a great many geniuses of storytelling, and there's a piece in Disney Animation: The Illusion of Life by Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson that discusses a key feature of Disney Studios Character Design:
"Of all characters, villains are the most fun to develop because they make everything else happen. They are the instigators, and always more colorful than the Hero. They may be dramatic, awesome, insidious or semi-comic, but they MUST be appealing. Almost any story becomes innocuous if all the evil is eliminated, but we do not necessarily gain strength by being frightening. we want a character that will hold the audience and entertain them, even if it's a Chilling Type of Entertainment."
And I've found that to be an important principle of character design, especially the kind of canon restructuring I do.
Aizen had a LOT going for him in canon- for all of Bleach's other faults, Aizen's conspiracy and THE REVEAL are spectacularly constructed and executed. I legit screamed and threw my mug across my dorm room when I read it in the manga the first time. He's also conventionally attractive and the translations I was reading gave him the speech patterns of Every Douchebag In Your 101 Political Theory Who Thinks He's The Smartest Man In The Room, which made him a terrific combination of Unfortunately Charming, Menacingly Competent and Engagingly Obnoxious.
...But he falls flat in a few key places.
Aizen's reasoning could be MUCH more sympathetic- After all, he is RIGHT. Soul Sciety does suck ass and all the options kind of suck. Who designs a universe like that? An asshole who needs killing, that's who. The best kind of Unhinged Madmen are the kind who spell out their reasoning and you realize that there but for the grace of Not Having Super Powers Go I. Canon!Aizen makes a few Good Rhetorical Points, but seems to lack any personal connection to his all-consuming plan.
Another issue is that nearly every villain with A Plan has a clear end goal AND a lot of the menace is drawn from the fact that the plan *could* work. Aizen's plan for betraying the court guard and then killing them off before proceeding into the Royal Realm to Kill God sorta falls apart when it's clear he planned to use pretty much all his accumulated forces dealing with the court guard and doesn't seem to have a plan for the Even More Powerful Royal Guard, let alone God. For how meticulously planned the rest of the plot is, the last two VERY IMPORTANT steps are just handwaved.
So I sat down and started with the plot beats Aizen MUST hit, and tried to imagine what kind of guy would he have to be to get there? And I came up with this:
Sosuke Aizen is a fundamentally good man with genuinely good intentions who is really trying his best for the whole world.
Think about it- what lengths would you NOT go to if you think you found a genuine shot at Fixing Everything Wrong With The World Forever? We all talk about killing Hitler if we found an actual Time Machine- would you do it if your only chance was when he was a baby? Would you kill an infant if it meant you could stop World War II before it starts? Of course you would! One small life for over 75 million? You'd be insane not to! What if you found out that you could prevent the future extinction of Humanity by killing your best friend today? Ten Billion lives? For theirs? It's simple, really- Hell, it's your Moral Obligation to do that if you were SURE!
-And Aizen IS sure. He is absolutely, totally, completely sure that He Can Save Everyone if he just gets rid of that idiot sitting on the throne of heaven. He's seen the plans! He knows where the gate of heaven is! It's So SIMPLE he just has to get inside, and he knows EXACTLY how to do it, yes it'll be hard and there will be... unpleasant parts but. IT. WILL. WORK.
He is of course, insane.
Aizen didn't have One Bad Day that set him irrevocably on the path of madness. It was a succession of catastrophic disappointments and realizations that he was living in a fundamentally irrational world that made irrational thinking look sane. The Catastrophe that befell his family, working for the central 46 and later the court guard and seeing how the organizations were inept to the point of abuse or corrupt to the core, learning that The Actual House Of God is a place he can just? Go to? Anyone would start thinking you were just a handful of white lies and homicides away from Fixing Everything, Forever.
Not only is Aizen insane, he is nowhere near as smart as he thinks. He is smart- He does have a knack for being able to guess just what will spur someone to action or make them recoil in fear. But mostly he gets extremely lucky Many, Many, MANY times. On some level I think it gives him Confirmation Bias that this is what he's supposed to be doing. Aizen is also nowhere near as smart as (nearly) everyone else thinks he is. His bizarrely good luck makes him look like a hyper-competent genius when really it was really the catastrophic failure of Soul Society as a Society that let a merely mediocre conspirator to evade detection for so long.
Being that he is at most, mediocre, he had to have Outside Help, specifically Gin's emotional support and Tousen's Competence- and if there's a part of the fic that stays true to canon, it's this.
Gin is Aizen's emotional rock in Canon. He's the ONE guy that Aizen genuinely trusts, and considers his 'my only real partner' in his scheme. There's more than one occasion in the manga where Aizen more or less asks Gin "Is this actually a good idea?" and Gin backs him up every time.
...Which is more than a bit at odds with Gin's later stated goal of "I did all this to kill you at your most vulnerable to protect rangiku" . It never rang true to me. So I started thinking why on EARTH Gin would be backing Aizen up like that, and realized there was a hole in my world building that he slotted into nicely :)
On the other hand, the entire fic was started because I didn't like how Tousen's character arc ended, so you can imagine how much he's changed.
But in canon, TOUSEN DOES ALL THE FUCKING WORK.
Lab work? Tousen.
Supervising the arrancar directly? Tousen
Actually getting victims for the Hogyoku experiments? Tousen.
Altering all the archives to keep Aizen's plot hidden? Tousen.
Sending all the Orders allegedly from the central 46? Tousen.
Making sure Unohana believes Aizen's fake body is real? Tousen.
Managing all the day-to-day operations at Las Noches? Tousen.
There's even this little exchange, which is Tousen's first appearance in the Manga:
Aizen establishes this entire meeting is a little fake-out a few pages later with "now isn't that a convenieint time for the alarm to go off?"
which makes him look like he's investigating, but he's also going "Good job on disrupting everyone with the alarm Gin!" It's ballsy of Aizen to do a check-in on his plan with his main nemesis in the room, but also his style.
I think the same thing is happening here with Tousen. To make sure Ukitake wouldn't raise a huge fit about the proposed execution of his beloved lieutenant, which might fuck everything up for Aizen because Ukitake is one of like, three people Yamamoto will listen to (sort of).
...So he had Tousen poison Ukitake to keep him out of the way.
ALL. THE. FUCKING. WORK. It's even in his name! The characters for "Tousen" Refer to a legendary scholar the emperor of China sent out to discover the secret of immortality- only to kill the scholar when he returned with that secret. The character for "Kaname" means "Necessary/Vital/keystone" or "to organize/take account of". His name LITERALLY means "Scholar who is essential for the plan (that we're going to kill later)"
Another thing Kubo did well in Bleach: his name game is Off The Fucking Charts.
-but I digress.
In AEIWAM, it's much the same only this time Aizen sees this very dangerous witness who is immune to his illusions but also extremely snart and capable young man and instead of risking being caught out by the one damn guy who can see right through him, opts to Curse Kaname into doing as Aizen says, and doing all the fucking work of this conspiracy against his will.
It's Not Nice, but Aizen genuinely thinks he's doing Kaname a favor by subjecting him to this degrading and incredibly painful servitude- I mean, Aizen's only other option was to Kill him to keep his silence, and isn't it wonderful that you get to help fix the universe? You're the one always going on about Justice, I don't understand why you didn't jump at the chance to mete out some Divine Justice.
An Excerpt from the captain's meeting in between the Massacre that made the visored and Zaraki's arrival, when Kaname realizes Yamamoto is 100% serious about his promotion to captain of the 9th and goes to throw up in the garden. Aizen offers to go check on him while Unohana very politely reads the general the riot act:
---
"You broke your toy Aizen." Kaname coughs.
"…I really am sorry for running you ragged like this. I really shouldn't have gotten so mad about you hiding the the hogyoku- it was very petty of me." The bastard sighs, taking off his glasses and rubbing his face, entirely genuine.
Kaname stayed on his hands and knees, weaving slightly as another wave of nausea flowed through him, powered by disgust and rage.
"How about this- I've got a lot coming up with the new job, training Gin and disposing of Kiganjo- So how about I promise to not give you any orders for a while? You will have to keep our arrangement a secret and not interfere, of course, but other than that, you're free to do as you please for- a year and a day is traditional isn't it? No, that's not going to heal by then- Oh, would you look at that!"
Kaname didn't have the strength to offer his usual rebuttal that he won't look at anything, ever. The sides of his head tingle like his skul was being pressed between two enormous hands made of static electricity.
"It's 11:11! Alright, I won't give you any Orders until 11:11 am on November 11th, 1911. That's easy to remember! What do you think?" Aizen continued cheerfully, patting his back and the Curse nails.
"…I can't." Kaname groaned. He could scream if he had the energy, but due to Aizen's Illusions, nobody would hear him. "I actually physically can't think. Please…"
"Of course! You really are such a help to me, it would be a shame to lose you. I'll even amend our contract, so you don't get paranoid-" There was a sizzling sound and a new stroke of hot pain up Kaname's spine as Aizen did something to the wretched Bakudo. "There. No compulsions for eleven years and a day. What do you say?"
Kaname grimaced, but dropped his head. Save the energy to fight another day. "…thank you, Aizen-sama."
"Good man! Let's get you on your feet." Aizen beamed, putting his glasses back on and offering him an arm.
---
He genuinely thinks that he's doing everyone a huge favor and if they don't get it it's because they're just not smart enough, but it's alright, He's a Benevolent God and they'll appreciate all his hard work the next time around :)
Aizen is a man who is FULL of joy. He loves what he does! He actively takes pleasure in it! And I think that's something that REALLY delivers in terms of sympathy AND horror for him. Who *Wouldn't* have a great time actually fixing the universe? He's a good man who enjoys doing good works, and this is the greatest work of all!
It also Delivers on the Horror when I get to write the deliciously fun scenes where Aizen is Elbows-deep in a novel War Crime and waxing poetic about how GREAT this is, or being confused why the people around him are reacting with fear. Don't you want to make everything better too?

Is Donnie in love with Kendra? Or at least he think he should be? Sorry that one fic that sorta ends with him worshipping her got stuck in my brain but I know its not canon
Donnie sees Kendra as his entire world at the moment. She’s the only positive feedback he gets, and even when she’s slightly disappointed in his performance, it’s heartbreaking for him. He might not be in love with her, or even know the difference between love and his obsessive worship. But when she uses physical touch as a reward, it feels amazing. When she’s unhappy with him, he doesn’t spiral if he can fix it right away, which is usually the case, even if he has to push past his own discomfort or needs.
Kendra uses Donnie’s brothers against him all the time. Asking if Donnie thinks she’s being as mean as them, or why Donnie’s trying to pull away from her, when she’s so much nicer to him than they ever were. Ect.
She definitely enjoys the power trip more. The only reason she’s even so gentle with him, is because he’s so pathetically pliant and eager to follow her every whim.
I came up with this from a prompt from the febuwhump list, and idk I just like fucked up angst, and it seems like enough people do too, so Ive kept feeding it 😂 As crazy as it sounds, it’s probably my most grounded AU just because I have known a lot of manipulative people. So writing Kendra’s dialogue is an interesting exercise in getting it realistic and not too mustache twirling.
They work out of an abandoned warehouse. Donnie stays there, and usually, at least one of the dragons is present. Kendra and Jeremy live there, while Jason spends his time going back and forth, not being as eager to move away from home as Kendra was.
When he’s not doing anything specific for Kendra, Donatello follows whoever around like a little puppy—too scared to really talk much, but also unable to be alone with his negative thoughts. Jeremy and Jace try to act nonchalant, but it’s off putting—having a little creture that was once their enemy, moving in their peripherals constantly.

This is all AU nonsense, don't be weird
A big family of shapes :3
I have a LOOOT of VERY specific thoughts for this AU of mine... but anyways! (Yes, thats Tad, yes thats Will) Tad works as a CPS agent and focuses on his in-laws family and his own nephew because, well... yeah those guys aren't exactly getting the best home lives.
Bill's parents are abusive and neglectful via constant medical abuse and being absolute helicopter parents. He's mostly just emotionally abused by them, constantly shamed for not being normal and ruining their lives. They do love and care about Bill but that doesn't change how they act towards him.
Meanwhile Will's parents shouldn't even be parents in the first place, they constantly forget about their kids (and also simply... do not care about their kids at all!) The two prefer flirting and working than anything related to any of their kids (who they constantly don't feed, leave places, and ignore).
In the canon of this world, Will runs away from home and ends up exiting his reality- incidentally bringing Tad (who had worriedly followed him).
Will never noticed Tad following him and was long gone by the time Tad realized he was maybe a little in over his head.
While the two of them were outside of the dimension, Bill ended up getting the whole place destroyed. When Will returned, he couldn't find... anything... and ended up leaving to find a new home.
Imagine running away from your neglectful parents, and then coming back and finding the entire city you used to live in fucking disappeared. That's probably sorta similar to how poor Will felt.
Meanwhile, Tad was stuck who knows where in what knows what- yet was eventually found by a kind being who brought him to some random dimension (ours).
I also like to imagine that Tad ended up in the same gravity falls as Bill, and neither knew until weirdmageddon and then it became the most awkward reunion ever.

《When a Spider falls into a new world, she didn't expect it to be so.. "Batty" than the others she's been in.》
-
Hurriedly swinging on rooftops and walls, you gaze in awe of the night sky. Warmth filling your body as the night air floats on your suit. Taking in the night sky...
Before smog and gas cover it as you jump down on the roof top. Pouting at the loss of the clear sky as you frown.
"I forget how polluted this city is.." You grumble, going to the ledge as you place your arms on the railing. Gazing down at the city lights and billboards.
Blinking innocently at one of the paid advertisments, you squint at it curiously.
"Wayne Enter.. Prizes? Technology.." You giggle at the guy on the board. His charming smile and flirty wink was not something you've seen often for an ad for tech.
Well...
You start re-calling a few worlds that did, but with a another billionare..
"Hmm, well. That's enough day-dreaming!" You shake your body, wanting to get your jitters out before taking a deep breath... Shooting out one of your webs to a near by ledge as you run and jump off.
Feeling your body pulled downwards, you pull your web as you glide through the air. Twirling slightly as you smile underneat your mask. Laughing once more as you swing forward.
..Let's do things differently this time.
Your name is (Y/N) (L/N), you were bitten by a radioactive spider..
Yet you weren't the only one.
But now.. Your on your own, though you weren't the only one.
With a fleeting glance at you, the supposed.. Dark Knight: pays you no mind. Eagerly taking down villians left and right, as the two of you finish them off together.
You were supposed to be back at HQ.
Things didn't go as planned.
You made it work, with this "new" life of yours.
Stumbling over your shoes in a hurry, you place down the box of donuts on the big fancy board meeting table. Glad that the stairwell was open, sighing in relief, you miss the eyes that watched you leave the building. While you headed to your next job!
In this Au, Spider!(Y/N) is a temp-worker and delivery girl. Just an odd young gal doing jobs around Gotham, ordinary and sweet.
She has a multiverse-watch, handmade specifcally for her by Miguel. Being one of his first recruits to the Spider Society, yet with the new Multiverse-Canon she's stuck in, the watch forms within her body to make it more acceptable to deal within the world.
Due to this, she doesn't "glitch" is the best term
"Welcome! Lord Hades!" The man dressed in a toga greeted cheerfully. You squint in confusion. Glancing at your companion as you walked closer to his side.
"Ah.. And fair Persephone, it seems you've taken form as garden spider. How quaint!" He spoke jovially as he held out a golden goblet to the two of you.
"Be serious Max! That's Batman and-"
"But Batman is a mere mortal! And what mortal has reached the summit of Olympus and survied!" Placing a hand on Batman's shoulder, the man gestured to his cup.
"Come! Brother! Unveil yourself and your bride in the nectar of the gods!"
-Batman The Animated Series 1992 Ep: Fire From Olympus
Spider!(Y/N) doesn't know Batman's idenitiy, and funny enough. He doesn't know hers, in the beginning. I'd like to think maybe down the line there's a possibility! I just think it's silly-er.
I'd like to think the dynamic between the two is Batman served as a comedic foil to Spider!(Y/N). Sorta, "brooding guy-and happy guy". Also, I like to point out, they can both can be silly in their own ways!
Just them figuring it out with Batman is hilarious in itself.
Biting into the dish, you beam in joy! It tasted so sweet! And.. Tangy, with a bit of sour. Invested with the tasty dish, you fail to notice the striking blue eyes glancing at you from a distance. Naively standing alone in your waiter uniform as you nibble on the treat.
"Ah, Mister Wayne, good to see you." Jim Gordon, dressed outside of his usual detective get-up greets. Flattening down his suit before grabbing one of the fancy champange glasses from one of the servers.
"Oh, Commissioner!" He spoke in suprise, greeting him as the two started to chat. "-And there it was... Mister Freeze and that giant lizzard."
"Dinosur." Gordan corrected.
"Whatever, doesn't make any sense. What does Victor Freeze gain by destroying a bunch of bones?" The billionare huffed.
"That's the question alright, I wish I had the answer." The Commissioner sighed, brows lowering in thought.

[This was a small personal project for me, I had this idea since Into the Spiderverse! I would honestly love some feedback for this! I also would love to hear your guys own ideas in the aak box!]
