W.ESTWORLD GUEST / S1 AU -

Originally a down-on-his-luck US Army soldier, Caleb's luck finally changes (somewhat) when the injuries he sustains while saving the life of a well-known pharmaceutical executive result in his being paid a decent cash settlement. He invests part of the money into the pharmaceutical company run by the representative he saved, and when the company begins to turn a hefty profit, his investment return quickly makes him a millionaire.

Money alone doesn't buy happiness, and seeing as he's always been a man of action, Caleb grows rather bored of his new everyday philanthropist lifestyle. He wants adventure, danger, suspense, honesty. And he can't seem to get much of that out in the real world. Everyone he knows keeps talking about W.estworld, the grandiose western theme park, where supposedly the only limit is your imagination and you can be whoever you want to be. In his curiosity, Caleb decides to go and see what it's all about.

What is this midnight sun bullshit???

(also hi :)

Hi friend! I have returned from Colorado.

Ooh, I’m glad you asked about this one.

So “what is this midnight sun bullshit” was a file started in the autumn of 2021, shortly after I’d posted Terrain Boundaries Territory to A03. Good lord, I wrote TBT before I learned how to punctuate poetry. I am much better at poems now. Also there’s just some really early show weirdness in it! Season 1 had just aired and we might have barely heard that season 2 was happening, but had minimal idea of what it would involve.

Anyway. Terrain Boundaries Territory is basically about Sara infiltrating the circle of elite kids to become August’s girlfriend so she can find out his dark secrets and get revenge on him for what he did to Simon. Of course, there is also some lingering attraction and horniness wrapped up in that angry plan. August falls in love with Sara when they’re together, and she realizes the best revenge she can get is thoroughly breaking his heart.

Now, I was writing this immediately post season 1. From my past fannish lurking, it seemed like most fans thought it impossible that August would ever fall in love with Sara, and fall in love with her hard and fast. However, I was convinced that he would fall in love with her in season 2, though I didn’t know exactly what that would look like. I could just feel it in my gut.

So I started writing this fic as August’s B-side to Terrain Boundaries Territory. I wanted to understand the process of him falling in love with Sara, and also just how his brain worked. The more I started writing in his POV the more I enjoyed it, even if it was a messed up, thorny place. Also, there was a whole subplot where August’s mother Louise was Kristina’s Unfortunate Romance during their teens.

I called the file “what is this midnight sun bullshit” as an allusion to the time Stephenie Meyer rewrote Twilight from Edward Cullen’s POV. Note: I have never read a Twilight book in my life. However, back when I could drink, I would sneak mini bottles of vodka into the movie theatre, dump them into a slushie, and drunkwatch the Twilight movies. Hence me using the reference.

ANYWAY. I am including an excerpt of the midnight sun bullshit in question below, so you can get a sense of the generally angry-horny-angsty vibes that dominated this fic.

Shortly before this scene, August got hit in the face and learned a little bit about Sara having been bullied by kids at Marieberg. He also learned that Rosh and Ayub are Simon’s friends, but that Sara thinks they’re only nice to her because of Simon, and wouldn’t like her otherwise.

Now, Sara and August are hiding away in August’s room. Simon and Felice happen to be away on a choir trip, and have just posted a selfie of the two of them together.

—

Sara swipes up, then down, before an image stops her. Simon and Felice side by side in their Hillerska uniforms—on their way back from the choral festival, probably. Simon’s got his elbows on the table like no parent’s ever told him off for it, and Felice has left behind her pizza crusts on her plate. They’re laughing together. Friendly. Friends?

Sara draws a ripped-apart-heart curve around the edge of the picture of Simon and Felice. She presses her lips together, tight.

“What are you thinking?” August asks her.

“Only that I’m so angry,” Sara answers. “All the time.”

“I know.” Now August leans closer. “Me too.”

He kisses her, like really kisses her, like for once it isn’t to say notice me but instead I understand. Sara is the only mirror August can stand to look at right now, if he can call her that, and part of him wants to drown in all of her—their—fucked up emotions. She’s kissing him back as many times as he kisses her, giggles in the gaps between. Then Sara dips down, presses her mouth to his neck, does something with her lips and teeth that will leave a mark, the way he’s only done to girls before. August’s breath catches. Things are even more fucked now because he didn’t even know he was into that, or what it means that he’s into that. He wraps his hands around Sara’s, coaxing her phone out from between her fingers. Pulls away.

The phone is already lighting up with another text from Felice, so August sets it face down on his nightstand. He opens the nightstand drawer and takes out a box of condoms, glances sideways at his window and checks to make sure he closed the curtains.

He looks back at Sara, reminds himself how much she hates euphemisms. Asks if she wants to have sex.

“Okay. We can do that.” Sara scoots closer and pinches the hem of his shirt. “As long as your face doesn’t hurt too much.”

“I’m fine.” What August actually means is, I really don’t care about my face right now, and that’s rare enough that it might translate to fine.

Sara kisses him again, which gives way to touching skin and tangling arms and legs and everything else together. The physical release of being with her should be enough. Should be, except. After everything, when Sara’s noticed the time, and after August has watched her pull her clothes back on and arrange her hair, and long after she’s gone back to the working class house she can’t stand, and after lights out has been called in the Hillerska dorms—after all that, August can’t bring himself to sleep in the center of his mattress. Awake, with his back pressed against the cold wall, he observes the space where he wishes Sara still was. He doesn’t even dare smooth down the wrinkles she left behind on the bedsheets.

hi, sorry if this have been asked before, but do you have any refs/inspos of clothes that the characters use/is time/region appropriated for myrk mire?

(also, sorry if this question is confusing - english is not my first language :") )

Hi,

Your English is very good!

Clothing, this has proven a topic of flux in the development of the story. I'll include the original answers I gave concerning clothing style below, but I think it's about time I updated this for you all, as things have changed...

Original answers and historical resources concerning clothing:

Historical costume

Source Material 1

Where the world is currently:

I use a little source document to keep track of clothing, so for the most part I'll be copy pasting the text from that into the post. It's quite cliff notes style, but it gets the important information across and the reasons for various stylistic choices.

Quick terms breakdown for those not 100% up to date with the wider lore around the story.

The Four Shores is a collection of four realms containing Diota, Eard, Jǫkull, and Þinda, located on a collection of islands widely considered north of pretty much everything else. Eard is the realm in which the story of Myrk Mire and TBT takes place.

A Wealdend is a leader within the rulership structures used in the Four Shores, a male wealdend is called a Cyning, a female a Cwén, and nonbinary individuals use the Wealdend title itself.

The Riverlands is a separate region on the Southern Continent, with little to no political, social, or cultural ties to the Four Shores.

Falatu is another island in the north, but not a member of the Four Shores. They have sympathetic political and cultural systems, but maintain their own very separate identity in comparison to their unified neighbours.

The Eahtung is a ruling collective of skilled individuals who work alongside the Wealdend. More information than this would open up a deep rabbit hole...

"Warmth is everything to the Four Shores, so layers are favoured.

Rather than high necklines, shawls are favoured, these decorated with swirling patterns.

Lacking a clearly defined nobility, showing evidence of one’s craft or skill is favoured higher than material expense. A metal smith would display their skill by wearing more metal upon their outfit, a weaver a more elaborate hemming, a woodworker finely carved beads.

Amber is the sole reserve of the Wealdend, and should not be worn by anyone else.

All have their ears pierced, women both ears, men just one, others may choose. Rings are worn here, usually made of silver or gold, often times studded with gems.

Everyone wears stringed beads about their necks. These beads can be ceramic, wooden, bone, metal, or stone.

There is no shame in underdresses or tunics being shown.

Women wear linen underdresses, typically white, with woollen overdresses secured at the shoulders with preónas or brooches and lacing at the sides. The lacing only extends as far at the hips, and the overdress is either slit long these lines without further lacing, or it is one unified flair of fabric.

Men wear mid-thigh length linen undershirts with woollen overshirts that are slightly shorter. In colder months this is supplemented by a wraparound jacket secured by belts or ties. Men also wear trousers of ankle length similar to the Riverlands, but these are secured by fur, or cloth wraps up to the mid-calf.

Everyone wears calf height boots. In the winter months these are fur lined.

 Everyone wears belts.

Hair is traditionally worn long by all genders, and is braided back from the face and tied in horse tails or buns at the back of the head.

Hoods and hats are used out of doors in colder seasons, but it is seen as rude to continue to wear these coverings indoors as it implies that the host does not keep their home warm enough to be comfortable.

The finest of outfits are hemmed with embroidered banding, these vary from simplistic geometric patterns, to full scenes of foliage or animals.

Bracelets are seldom worn, favoured more by the peoples from Falatu, and rings are only really worn as a symbol of office, guild status, or position as Wealdend. The Tug Stone rings are the sole use of the Wealdend, Eahtung and the respective heads of each province.

The ruling families align themselves to animals incorporating them into their surnames, once picked, they cannot wear anything taken from that animal. Otherwise furs are used to line apparel for warmth.

Cloaks are not worn indoors for similar reasons to hats, but out of doors are acceptable, they range from calf-length to lower-hip length."

As for visual aids, I'm a bit lacking in those right now.

Basic rules:

Warmth and practicality are key.

Linen underclothes, woollen overclothes.

Head coverings for outdoor use.

Ear piercings for everyone.

Belts are the toolkit for all and hold pouches and exterior pockets.

I can do a bit of visualisation for weapons, though (surprising no one). The Four Shores use two main forms of bladed arms, the sæx, and the méce.

A sæx in this context is a short, single edged blade with a tapered point.

Image of the Seax of Beagnoth currently held at the British Museum. Image attributed to Wikipedia contributor BabelStone.

A Méce is a long single edged blade with a slightly curving profile. Wielded one-handed or two-handed, it favours a cutting sweep rather than a thrust approach. If you fancy seeing two chaps demonstrate the historical weapon that inspired this, the messer, I highly recommend this video:

The first section though, they later switch to different weapons.

Most important features to look at are the pin crossguard that sits at angle to the blade, how the single edge is used to advantage in the application of force, and the length of the hilt to suit the single versus two-handed approach to wielding it.

Anyway, that's enough to be chewing over, I think.

I'll keep an eye out for visual sources on dress and clothing, so folks have a clearer idea on all that.

Switcheroo Brainstorming

I'm making an role reversal au! I'm going to post this along with my posts for Viva, Poppy, and Branch specifically, which you can find by clicking on their names! Here's some ideas I have:

So Branch and Poppy are basically going to be full-on switching lines, though their backstories will be very different cause... it's kinda hard to replace 4 people with 1 sister and a father. So band together is going to be the most different! More details in the individual posts for the characters

I want "Better Place" to be replaced with "It Takes Two" for the final confrontation in TBT :)

Not all characters are going to be switch 1-to-1. Again, the brothers are going to be hard to switch for. Also, not all characters readily have someone to replace them with

There will be a lot of trollstopia characters that will be in the world tour switch, but they'll mostly have the personalities of the trolls they switch with so watching the show isn't a must (But i still recommend both shows, they're pretty fun!)

Most of the troll tribe leaders will be replaced with a trollstopia character, EXCEPT for Queen Essence and King Quincy cause I need them to be in those roles. They'll just change lines and outfits maybe?

I have no idea what to do with the bounty hunters so if you have a recommendation id love to hear it!

There's not much to say other than character switches which will be put under the cut cause it'll be a long list. If you have any recommendations or questions, hit up my ask box!

Character Switches:

Branch ↔ Poppy

Gristle ↔ Bridget

Biggie ↔ Creek

Creek’s Mr Dinkle would be the little bug thing that makes him fly in canon

Satin and Chenille (Their names also change order and they switch which side they're usually on cause I think that's fun) ↔ DJ Suki

Guy Diamond ↔ Sky Toronto

Tiny Diamond doesn't have a counterpart so he's just kinda the same

Copper ↔ Darnell (personalities don't change only backstories)

Smidge ↔ Milton (not sure if I want to change their personalities or just professions... a loud vet and a sweet bodybuilder sounds fun)

Chad and Todd ↔ Chef (Not sure if I should change her name or just keep her as Chef)

Peppy ↔ JD

Cloud Guy ↔ Janet

Barb ↔ Val

Thrash ↔ Val's unnamed father that shows up for one frame in "Flyer's Ed" (Trollstopia season 4 episode 4b)

Riff ↔ Demo

Sid Fret ↔ Blaze (their personalities do not change, just their roles)

Carol ↔ Petra

Since there's no rock child Amp just kinda hangs around and takes the roll of that random rock kid in "Val Serves Murray Duty" (Trollstopia season 7 episode 6b)

Holly ↔ Delta Dawn (no personality change)

Growley Pete ↔ Gust

Pigtail is the one who bites Poppy instead of Clampers. Again, with Clampers there's no child country troll so she's just... around.

Minuet ↔ Wolfgang Trollzart

Dante ↔ Beetrollven

Not 100% sure what I wanna do with the show's funk trolls yet. It's either switch Lownote with Groovetavius and switch R&B with each other, OR have R switch with Lownote, B switch with Groovetavius

For the techno trolls it's going to be a triangle. Laguna-> Trollex -> Synth -> Laguna. The reason for this is changing Trollex and Synth would be too similar, and would leave Laguna with no one (Except for Bliss Marina)

Velvet ↔ Veneer

Crimp ↔ Ritz

The other BroZone members don't really have counterparts. Clay and Bruce stay mostly the same while Floyd joins the rock trolls.

#TBT to that time when I was walking to our vehicle with my family & ran into 2 of the beautiful ladies from my favorite show Heartland!! I had just played a show at the Spruce Meadows ‘National’ in Calgary, Alberta & was watching the stunning athlete horses & riders compete in the Skybox. (Thanks to the team @ Spruce Meadows who brought us in to sing!) I had some of my relatives with me & had JUST said about a 1/2 hour before to my aunts “most of anything I know about horses is what I’ve learned from the show Heartland”. Kind of laughing about it! They knew of the show but didn’t watch it & I was gushing to them about how great it is & family friendly, but it also covers ALL kinds of real life situations in a classy, earthy, appropriate way. There are some hard times in the show for sure-but they get through them-together. During the pandemic, a friend suggested it & my kids & I fell in love with it. When they would go to their dads I would have to patiently await their return before I could move forward in the series. (Although I did watch ahead one time & had to go back & rewatch with the kids-they were not happy with me!). I truly love this show. Sooooooo…..I had just left the skybox to leave & who did I run into? None other than Lisa Stillman-Jack Bartlett’s wife & horse owner & expert (real name-Jessica Steen) and Jessica Cook-Tim Fleming’s wife (real name Michelle Nolden). I was like “oh my-hi-I just love your show” they were so kind & then I went to walk away & turned around & said “I think I have to get a picture with you-my kids are going to love that I met you-I LOVE that I met you-but I’d love to show them when I get home”. So the ladies were VERY gracious & took this picture with me. There is a better one of me smiling bigger but one of the ladies eyes were half open & I didn’t want to show that one so this is the one. If you want a show that has a ton of real life experiences, uses horses to learn many life lessons & can watch it with your kids-this is the show. There is a reason there are 16 seasons. Soooooo good! I can’t promise you won’t cry or go through ALL the emotions with this show-in fact I can guarantee you will. It’s a RIDE!🐴🐴🐴

What's the deal w the black tapes I keep on hearing stuff about it but I never got a sense of why it was so good everyone seemed to know it but it's ending was so bad everyone unanimously dropped it

so i was never around for the online following of tbt so i can only give you my opinion, not broad opinion. my opinion is that the first three episodes work really well as like. sincerely, unironically good episodic horror. like genuinely it's the kind of stuff i CRAVE because it straight facedly pretends to be like. an npr-alike nonfiction podcast. to the point that the actors and writers aren't even credited until the end of each season. and it totally plays in this space of like. stuff that's JUST non-paranormal enough to feel like it could almost be a real story, but is scary as shit. like the unsound scared the bejesus out of me when i first heard it.

but then starting in ep four and continuing for the rest of the season it 1) jumps into campy, ouijia board and the exorcist inspired satanic panic lore, and 2) becomes serialized in a way that kills horror.

later, in the second season, it manages to jump the shark into charmingly intentional camp and i start liking it again. mostly as like. a salacious and journalistically unethical romance between our protagonist and sexy richard dawkins.

but even though i like the later stuff, it still frustrates me because the podcast that it started out as is a podcast i genuinely want to listen to SO bad.

Bitch, seek mental help lol. Tom would hate you, you know that, right? Btw, if you wanna talk about unsupportive partners, look at your precious Tom before speaking on Zendaya. What important to her event did he attend? What project of her did he support the way she supported uncharted? Did he acknowledge the hard work she put in euphoria (btw remember her "my spider-man, I'm so proud of you" post)? Do you think she wouldn't want him with her on the very special for her emmy night? Where was Tom and his support? Yes, he was working, so was she the day of tbt gala. So how exactly is he more supportive than her? His two horny flights to Budapest? But wasn't she staying with him in NY for weeks? Your racism is showing gurl.

Thank you for being an asshole on a private account instead of your main because you're too much of a coward to use it. Anyway, Tom would probably hate Zendaya more than a faceless person on social if he knew most of the hate he gets are from her SHITTY CULT fanbase. Let me spit some facts instead of this fanfiction you created in your head. He's been visiting her on set SINCE KC undercover and we got confirmation she was visiting him during ONE project TCR. Oh after how many years of him supporting her even before he was famous she should get a fucking medal now for attending ONE screening for Uncharted & one IG story of ticket stub. He LITERALLY was on set with her for Euphoria Season 1 & 2 being supportive which trumps some IG post. You played yourself HE travels everywhere to meet her but did the opposite with FUCKYBOY Jacob. How can someone who hid Tom for years but wanted everyone to know immediately she was screwing JE has proven he (Tom) means jack shit to her. The Brothers Trust Gala was ONE Night she could've move things around but she wasn't there. You meant Emmy night were Z doesn't mention him besides saying she texted her boyfriend but that could be anyone. You keep proving she barely put any effort into their relationship with Tom before either of them were super famous. Yeah, she visited him in NY when she was filming in Boston but we only have confirmation of visiting him on set for ONE project. Another example of her putting the bare minimum in Budapest visit when Dune was shooting again you keep providing receipts why she's a shitty girlfriend. Your racism argument is weak when I literally ship Peter with Liz Allan & Mary Jane Watson. Michelle will always be a bootleg Mary Jane Watson whether people want to admit it or not. I was never a fan of Michelle when she did nothing for three films. Yes, this pass year how I felt about Zendaya changed because of how she treated Tom badly in the pass not racism & her FUCKED UP CULT made me shift my opinion from indifference to hatred. I don't ship real life people so Tom can date whoever he wants but being in a toxic relationship is bad for his mental health. If you want to send an ask use your main next time.
