#staging a coup

[imsociallyanxiousgetoverit]

Anybody else really want a BOTW AU where Zelda is convinced and helped by the Champions, Link, and some of the Sheikah to overthrow her father King Rhoam?

It sounds odd I’m sure, but I want to imagine what it would be like if the kingdom was run instead by Zelda with her chosen family by her side assisting and guiding her. The ganon thing could be canon or completely AU with him being a random man or even a warring King or something.

This isn’t just for shits and giggles too- Rhoam wasn’t a terrible King but he was hurting far more than he was helping during his reign. Zelda and the Champions, one each from every societal race, know how to begin changing things for the better and so…

What if when Temrash 114 infested Jake, towards the end of his three-day deadline, the Yeerk chose instead to morph into something and took the 2 hour deadline of morphing instead, basically spitting in the Animorphs face's that Jake would be forever lost to them.

Marco would kill Jake. He wouldn't like it, but he'd give the order. And Rachel would become the one to actually strike the blow.

Cordelia Concept Art

Cordelia concept/reference art. Translation notes and image id below the cut.

Translation Notes

The word for "sash" on this page was literally "obi," the type of sash a woman would tie around a kimono. "Obi" is a valid English word, so I went back and forth between what to use, but since her dress isn't technically a kimono + the sash isn't tied in the style an obi usually would be, I decided to go with the more catch-all term.

"White as snow" was a word that literally just meant "white," but the first character and the word in general had some connotations with innocence/purity, so I added "as snow" to try and give that same connotation.

"Simple" as it refers to the fastener might have also meant "casual."

"Once upon a time" wasn't exactly the Japanese phrase for "Once upon a time," but it was fairly close. A more literal translation would be, "In the olden days, it just so happened that..."

"Girl of innocence" appears to literally be the word "witch". However, if you take the first character as a separate prefix to the second, it would mean something along the lines of "pure/genuine/true girl." I'm not really sure if that's how it works, but it seemed to make more sense than "witch," so that's what I ended up going with.

Image IDs

[id: Five images. The first two are the full pages of Cordelia's concept art in Japanese, the other three are translated versions of the text. On the first page, there is a colored and uncolored version of Cordelia's portrait. Underneath, there is an illustrator's note that reads, "Cordelia's overall tone is pale, so I thought it ended up being pretty difficult to choose a shading color. And actually, her initial facial features were much younger, but Mr. Ikushima redesigned her several times to give her the elegant look she has today. (Rina Yoshiura)". The second page is titled, "Morality's Sister (Healing Hands to Protect) Rough Draft". It has a small illustration/comic of a childhood Cordelia and Roland. It has the notes "Country A," "13 year old," and "girl of innocence." It then has a note that says, "I have to protect," with a large bracket beside it that contains the list, "small, dainty, gentle". There is also the word "pure" nearby. Underneath that is the illustration, titled, "Sister and Morality" with the subtitle "about 8 years ago". In the illustration Roland seems to be throwing a caterpillar-like bug aside. It's labeled, "Weird Bug Arm Bar Throw." Roland has some dialogue that reads, "I've for real gotta catch it!" Cordelia has some dialogue that reads, "huh?" Underneath them both, there's a note that reads, "Once upon a time, a warm fuzzy feeling made him think, 'I have to protect her!'" To the side there are several portraits of Cordelia, some full-body (one of which has a note about her braid being brought in front of her shoulder), and two that are labeled as "Bust portraits". One of the portraits shows Cordelia in a simple cloak with the fastener being labeled, "simple metal fastener." There's a top-down diagram of the metal she wears at her dress's neckline, labeled, "Decoration rough draft." On the second half of the page there is a portion labeled, "Working out the sister's hair ornament….." One version has a large flower on it. Next to it is a small portrait of Groma. A note reads, "Big flower, three strand braid. Doesn't she look like Grandma?" Another section is labeled, "Morality Facial Features and Morality's Sister WIP". There are several drawings of Cordelia's face, along with a full body rendition of an alternate design. She still wears the same sash as she does in canon, and nearby is the note, "For women. If they are wearing a dress, the sash should be wrapped like this." At the bottom of the page, there is another illustrator's note that reads, "She had this more child-like sort of look to her character during the drafting phase. But she ended up taking on a more serious role than I had originally expected, and the design was tweaked to fit. I recall she was a difficult character for us. (Yasuaki Arai)" /end id.]

[enigma-the-anomaly]

i don’t know if I talked about it on here but

i have a headcanon that before kaveh left for the desert prior to the sumeru archon quest, kaveh and alhaitham had ~~~~relations~~~~~ the night before. Whether they just kissed or they fucked or whatever is up to interpretation, but either way, they shared a tender and explicitly romantic moment that night for the first time in years, and end up sleeping in the same bed together. That morning, kaveh wakes up bright and early. He gets dressed, eats breakfast, packs up and prepares to leave. Before he does, he sneaks a last look at alhaitham who is still sound asleep. And he considers what last night meant for them. Were they dating again? Have they reconciled? Did it mean anything at all? For a moment kaveh considers waking alhaitham. Giving him a kiss, making him coffee. Saying goodbye or perhaps even asking alhaitham to join him out in the desert. But he doesn’t. Instead, he leaves. And somewhere alhaitham can easily find it, kaveh left a note written in the ancient language only they know.
