Them: “What’s your villain’s face-fashion like? Suave mustache, evil goatee? Hair as black as their soul?”

Me: “Pfft, no. My villains are blonde. One’s got a Karen haircut and the other looks like Prince Charming from Shrek.”

evil space dad and his evil space daughter

theyre on an evil space family road trip to Jotunheim

I don't have a little ficlet to go along with this art, but I do have some story/plot outline ramble stuff!

so. without further ado,

IDEAS!

Skoll and Hati are actual characters from Norse mythology, so Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati are both very fun and somewhat difficult to fit into the Rebelvengers AU! Here's what I've got worked out: Baylan is an Asgardian who was once well-known for both his wisdom and his swordsmanship, but over time, he was slowly consumed by fear over the foretold fall of Asgard in Ragnarok, and set out to prevent it. Shin is a Light Elf who he finds and begins training—more on that in a bit.

I'm going back and forth on if I want them to have killed the mythological wolves Skoll and Hati (who were said to devour the sun and moon during Ragnarok) as part of Baylan's plan for preventing Ragnarok, and have Skoll and Hati be the wolf skins they're wearing, OR if I want Baylan and Shin to BE the Skoll and Hati figures in the Rebelvengers AU, with the wolf-skins as just references to the OG mythology. Either way, there'll be a kind of becoming-the-future-you-tried-to-prevent thing, and Baylan and Shin unintentionally start the ball rolling on Rebelvengers Ragnarok in the end. (Despite my Evil Space Family jokes, they are more sympathetic characters here than in canon—misled heroes, rather than outright antagonists. Might give them redemption arcs, idk.)

but, BACK TO PLOT STUFF!

When a pair of Jotun warriors shatter the Bifrost in a last-ditch attempt to keep the lieutenant of an extragalactic warlord from invading Asgard and obtaining the Tesseract as part of his evil plan to destroy half of all life in the universe (it's a long story), the resulting shockwave throws many Asgardian warriors, including Baylan—who had returned to Asgard to assist in the battle against said extragalactic warlord—into the abyss. But instead of plummeting into nothingness, the energy from the explosion ends up sending him hurling along one of the branches of the World Tree, and eventually leaves him stranded on the dead planet Svartalfheim.

Soon after, he finds Shin, an orphaned Light Elf girl who was also cast onto Svartalfheim by the Big Bifrost Kaboom, and trains her, becoming someone she looks up to as a father. They manage to scrape out their survival for five long years, before they eventually stumble upon the five-thousand-year-old wreck of an Asgardian prisoner transport. They explore it, and piece together its story. The crew was killed in the crash—as evidenced by the empty heaps of armor, the warriors' bones long turned to dust—and the stasis pods containing Dark Elf prisoners taken in the Battle of Svartalfheim had all been smashed.

All, that is, save one.

They open the last pod and find that the prisoner within is alive. Awakened from her hibernation, this Dark Elf briefly attempts to murderize them both until they talk her down and convince her they have a common goal—getting off this planet. She agrees to an alliance, and they begin planning a way to escape Svartalfheim, combining his knowledge of seiðrcraft and her ability to walk between worlds to escape.

But her goals are much deeper—and much more sinister—than Baylan and Shin could imagine...

also here's a version without the blue tint. just because.

[visenyaism]

i was driving to school this morning and i was struck by the thought of a version of the painting “Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan” except it’s the ghost of visenya clutching maegor’s body when he dies on the throne.

i know visenya is the paragon wire mother, and Maegor is Maegor, but i dunno. him dying on the throne, having effectively terrorized, murdered, and alienated any one who might have mourned him in the pursuit of the throne and the continuation of his father’s fledgling dynasty feels like such a crystallization of the targaryen doomrot. it’s tragic, if entirely self-prophetic and earned, but i feel like that kind of scene would be cathartic. the stability of mourning after the all-consuming pursuit of life at all costs. vulnerability and intimacy in death.

(i’m only like 70% this is coherent, but i figured i’d send it anyways because i love your blog and meta and i figure i’d finally say hi!)

no because this for real HAPPENED. Visenya in the tower of the hand after raising up her little boy to make him the perfect killing machine king and bending over backwards to usurp him a throne and then dared anyone who questioned his reign to challenge him so the faith militant did and he killed all seven of them just like mama told him to but it wasn’t enough because they cracked his skull open and he definitely bled out….she was the one to take his helmet off after. she knew

Would you ever expand the One Of Us AU or is it more of a silly fun side thing

Do you mean a general "Ford joins during Weirdmageddon" One Of Us AU, or the specific evil Ford deal I've got going on here?

I don't plan to write fic about Evil Ford or anything—I don't plan to be writing much of *anything* except a couple of zine things until I finish my Bill fic—especially since it would largely be a retelling of canon with a few events changed and that doesn't much appeal to me as an author.

But I might toss art out from time to time, and I'm willing to answer questions about the AU. I've got another ask in my inbox about Evil Ford that I'm gonna throw some art at as soon as i finish another drawing or two.

[izzyspussy]

like. angel is submissive and breedable because he's trying soooo hard to be Good but he has absolutely no fucking clue how because he never actually bothered to like. develop a personality, form opinions, build an ethical framework, etc. all he's got to go on is this or that makes him feel icky inside, which is completely inactionable, and so he just ends up being obedient and trusting that he surely deserves however the Good Pretty Human Girl Hero treats him. god's perfect conventionally handsome doormat.

spike is submissive and breedable because he's a bottom and he wants to get roughed up and held down and bossed around.

That quote though. Theon being like (trying to spin it as) 'I've worked very hard for the benefit of our house even though I was a kidnapped child and I didn't have to I've acquired all this influence on our former enemy's son that Is advantageous for us'

Balon: 'yeah I decided to see it as a betrayal and debasing yourself actually'
