More Strange!AU

[fairsweetlonging]

truth serum / system reveal au where shen qingqiu gets hit with an uncloaking spell that reveals the system in the reflection of his eyes every time it pops up.

during one of his missions, in the treasure hoard of some dragon-like creature, he finds a golden, oval shaped hand mirror, its gaudy style more victorian based than anything (airplane you hack!), that doesn't seem to do anything when he looks into it. but when he does, it reveals the system's screen in his eyes.

he doesn't notice this, of course, because he can't see it, and the system, surprisingly, stays quiet.

the peak lords think he's cursed.

maybe mu qingfang is the first to notice, during the mandatory post mission check-up, when shen qingqiu is scrolling through his most recently accumulated points and mu qingfang can see the strange vividly-blue lines reflected in his pupils. it's gone when shen qingqiu blinks, like it was nothing but a trick of the light.

it comes out when yue qingyuan is visiting and, just as he's done laying out the plans for a new mission, shen qingqiu's eyes glaze over and a bright blue box takes over the whole of his iris. shen qingqiu goes quiet; the thing in his eyes moves, shifts, pulses for a second, like static worms crawling all over his pupils. then he blinks, and it's gone, and shen qingqiu accepts the mission that yue qingyuan was almost sure he would decline.

maybe there is an intervention, when the peak lords corner shen qingqiu at qian cao peak and try to figure out what's wrong, subjecting him to all kinds of treatments and curse-finding spells that turn up empty, they can't find anything.

of course, the silencing threat is still very much up and running. at first shen qingqiu was kind of confused by the whole ordeal, but when the peak lords start describing a "strange blue box", he realizes, with sickening suddenty, that they're describing the system. and he can't say anything.

this only makes everything worse, because their fellow peak lord now keeps evading every question and acts like he doesn't understand. liu qingge points right at his face and asks, "that blue box, what is it?" and shen qingqiu laughs nervously and starts talking about how bright the weather is and surely it's the sky and nothing to worry about!

even worse, during the intervention the system thought it was a good idea to start talking to him, so now even the peak lords who hadn't seen it and who might have been persuaded by light tricks and reflections, get a first row view that no, that definitely isn't a trick of the light.

they try to do the whole thing of "are you in danger, blink twice" but shen qingqiu can't even do that because it's still a direct admittance!

maybe eventually he starts saying vague confirmations that don't actually confirm anything, like "this master hears what you're saying", or maybe he goes with a classic "this master can neither confirm nor deny that." but the system starts warning him for that too and eventually he stops saying anything, which worries the others more.

luckily mu qingfang catches on that every time they ask a direct question about the box or shen qingqiu says anything vaguely confirming, it appears. it doesn't appear when they ask about curses or demons, so it must not see that as a threat.

for a little extra angst: maybe the peak lords keep pressuring him for answers, and at some point shen qingqiu gets fed up and snaps out something like, "why don't you understand that i'm not allowed to answer that!" the system counts this as a direct admittance, threatening it's existence. so it punishes. shen qingqiu has a qi deviation so bad it lasts two weeks and takes two people every day to cleanse his meridians. the system doesn't appear in that time. it doesn't appear for a long while after that, either. the peak lords stop asking, mainly because shen qingqiu will instantly leave the room if they do. they don't stop searching for a cure, though.

shang qinghua returns from a business trip and catches on the second someone mentions a blue box and forced silencing.

The cross-over ever

AUs by @honeqq and @void-dude ! They've been haunting my every waking thoughts these few days

⚠️ superior shape 🟪

This stupid comic idia came to me when I was half asleep, and I really hope it's not too stupid and actually funny ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

It's also the first comic I've ever done and English isn't my first language, so if I've made any mistakes, I'm terribly sorry (⁠ ⁠；⁠∀⁠；⁠)

how did Tad met Stan? Or..gravity falls in general?

maybe you're going to tell us later with the comic? Just askin (⁠◠ ◠

(also you're the first artist i make an ask on Tumblr, yeey

Teehee guess what I finally finished (because I kept pushing it back and using it as cool-down drawings…so it’s very uh inconsistent and messy but whatever)

For anyone wondering, Tad was trapped in a waiting room for god knows how long and Stanley freaking Pines somehow managed to draw the most delectable circle/portal of invitation. Did Stanley leave a big door open that leads right into gravity falls? Yes! Will it close? Very soon! Does that mean that Tad is corporal and got what Bill wanted by pure accident? Kinda! Simply put: Tad is here now, physically, mentally and will stick around for a while

Also this means I can finally share stuff without needing to worry kinda yay!!!

Also omg yay I'm so glad look at me I got your first ask yaaaay??!!

Edit: The aftermath of this!

Final Bug Fact:

The world NEEDS bugs. They keep the soil healthy, pollinate, control pests, and contribute to the worlds' ecosystem. By the end of the century, it is estimated 40% of insect species may go extinct due to habitat loss. Yes, that is very scary. But with even one beetle spared, one caterpillar rescued, and one Hollow Knight comic of all things, things will change. Because I know there's a lot more Dewi's out there than most people realize. Stay curious.

Thanks for going on this adventure with me. ♥︎

Comic Thoughts and Pictures Below!

I wanted to put here how amazing and sweet everyone has been with this comic. I finished a 75 page comic in 3 MONTHS. I am at a loss for words. That sounds crazy and it IS crazy. But man was it fun. Even on days were I wasn't able to draw due to fatigue or business, I loved working on it from start to finish. And guess what!? This is my first ever FINISHED comic :D I'm so proud of myself. I know there's some things I want to change and the art is wonky in most places...... but I'm content to let it be. What an amazing summer adventure!

I'm hoping to post the full comic on another Comic website. I may or may not edit some of the art ^w^ So I'll let y'all know when I release it.

Interested in learning what you could do to help your local insects? This is the basic stuff. Maybe make some Insect Hotels if you have the time!!! And never forget to spread the word about bugs. They need our help just as any animal on earth.

Still Here? Well you can look in the tags for little lore dumps if ur looking for stuff like that ;)

Sorry if the audio and cuts are delayed. It works fine in capcut but completely unravels when I download. Tried fixing it the best I could.

He's upset 😔

[chariel-raine]

I saw this clip and it reminded me of Tad. I couldn't resist making a small animation for it haha

Au belongs to @void-dude

[void-dude]

I’d love to see more of your “what if Tad Strange was canon and helped Stanley”, especially how it would change the turn of events with Bill since he thought everyone he knew was dead from the accident

Ok so you might not like this but it’s kinda part of my au called “ Shapes and Pines “

I got a comic in the works for the start of it and a BUNCH of drawings and doodles! I wanted to hold off on it until the comic is done but I’m weak! So here have some lore, jokes and doodles! I’m scared!

Most of these ARE jokes but uhm… idk if I’m gonna make them kiss but wouldn’t it be funny? A little? No?
