Wait wait talk about millynai version of the undine au

YOU DO NOT NEED TO ASK ME TWICE

SO squid here (@noaafishfieldguide) introduced me to the idea of an undine (sea creatures similar to mermaids) and an alternate mermaid au essentially to sea foam (WHICH EVERYONE SHOULD READ BY THE WAY) where vash is the mer,,,, and it dives more heavily into fantasy !!!!

so squids original version of the au involves amnesia and is vashmeryl centric AND it involves an unwanted engagement between Milly and King Nai (the story has Milivio as the end goal)

but me.... being me decided what if that engagement was unwanted but,,,,, then they actually spent time together,,,, and then they fell in love

soooo here are some fun millynai undine au ideas (a story squid and i lovingly call along the ocean floor)

Milly is a half-elf princess of a riverside kingdom

Nai is the undine king of the neighboring ocean kingdom

Milly, the poor girl, is the youngest of a bunch of siblings, so naturally most of her older brothers are kind of duking it out to try and win the crown

Milly just anticipated to live her life in semi obscurity because shes the youngest of ten and doesn't have shot at the crown or at being bothered

she just wants to enjoy her life with her friends, make the kingdom a better and safer place, and do right by those around her

that is,,, until her brothers get the grand idea to marry her off

milly's older sisters (and some of her brothers) were all married-- some arranged-- but milly never intended to be married to a royal,,, but at the most recent political meeting and discussion they announced her engagement to a foreign royal

milly wasn't consulted, informed, or even told WHO IT WAS GOING TO BE

and because they know milly will be unhappy with this sudden change of plans, they keep her essentially under house arrest

milly sneaks out to clear her head and is just,,, so frustrated !!!

the marriage isn't an awful prospect to her. its not that big of a deal because her whole goal in life is to help the kingdom, and if this is what it is then so be it,

BUT THEY DIDN'T EVEN CONSULT HER

they didn't talk to her or get her opinion on which arrangement might be best AND THEY HAVENT EVEN DECIDED WHO YET,,, JUST THAT THEYRE GONNA MARRY HER OFF

milly also knows if the marriage pays off and the kingdom benefits, whoever suggested the idea is guaranteed the crown

so on her walk to clear her mind on the river banks, milly is angrily stomping about and kicking dirt and water,,,,, only to see something in the dark of night

and its a body

she rushes over to help the man, but she is ill prepared !!! to do that !!!

milly is a princess not a nurse !! she's well trained in the political and diplomatic arts ! (and maybe some martial arts) but not saving a man

and yet,,, she does all she can anyway

then,,, she realizes she recognizes this man,,, he's the king from that undersea kingdom.... THE ONE THAT WAS COMING TO VISIT THIS WEEK

so milly tries her best to help him, blah blah blah she breaks his rib, he yells at her and passes out again, and Milly wraps him up in her dress and carries him back to the castle

CUE MANY SHENANIGANS

This is the main idea for the first chapter (which i have written lol) but here's the subsequent plot ideas

nai is trapped in the castle with an injury hes having trouble healing by himself (some dumb magical weapon that he was attacked with)

eventually he gets better (meryl drops by to fix him) and returns to the sea

and then promptly returns with his twin brother........ who turns out to be the one betrothed to Milly

Milly and Vash play nice but they both don't,,, they dont want this

BUT because of the engagement and new relations between the kingdoms,,, the twins hang around for a few weeks,,,

and Milly gets to see Nai

well,, she finds him in a variety of places

mostly her places,, but she doesn't mind him hanging out there. those secluded spots in the garden or by the river are nice for a reason

but milly is the only one nai kind of knows in the castle, so they subconsciously drift toward one another during boring meetings and diplomatic mounts

and milly ofc goes to visit the undersea kingdom and i have a whooooollllleeeee design planned out for undine milly do not worry

but yeah,,, milly and nai tend to hang out with one another,, despite the fact that milly and vash are the ones that are engaged...

and uhhh perhaps nai starts to develop some,,, feelings,,,

because milly may be silly and naive sometimes but shes strong and convicted and kind and she knows the ins and outs of her kingdom and she is incredible at those political meetings and her hair and her lips and... and.... oh no

and sooooo he decides to speed up the wedding process so that he can be rid of those feelings

but it doesnt work....................

and then theres a ball to celebrate the couple and the unification of the kingdom and oh gosh the wedding is so close and milly is just going to be out of reach and even though she'll be family it wont be the same and I-

Nai takes milly out into the hallway during the ball to talk with her

Milly,,,, is exhausted

the night has been long, everyone is trying to talk with her or dance with her or congratulate her and while she is a social butterfly, she has a limit for political pleasantries

and now nai is trying to talk to her but he seems so flighty and nervous and she cant figure out whats going on

and then,,, he says "Don't... don't marry Vash"

and milly is SO LOST because he is the one whos been moving up all the dates and insisting that they get married ! nai would have them married right now if he could but he cant and...

oh

oh

it clicks in Milly's brain

and she confesses, "I don't want to marry Vash"

and then nai kisses her

and suddenly all those previous moments where he was acting weird and she felt those strange flutters in her guts are all aligning and she cant believe how happy it all makes her

AND THATS ALL YOU GET,,, BUT THIS IS TOO MUCH ALREADY BECAUSE I HAVE A PROBLEM

but lets just say you can look forward to hidden relationships, secret pining, military coups and broken families, as well as Milly looking hot in a flowy white shirt AND as a mermaid

Kiss: Luffy - I can't kill Luffy :( He's literally the sun omg no I'd give him a smooch but that's it lol

Kill: ...Zoro bby I'm so sorry...I maybe like Zoro like a HAIR more than Luffy even but killing Luffy is so out of the question...Zoro is gay anyways he doesn't want me like that 😔

Pictures from Goochy’s train adventure yesterday! We were very excited about the bull in the last picture because it was featured in official Splatoon art!

I hate taking selfies, and I don't think a selfie could properly encapsulate how much I had on me. So heres a diagram of my Autism Fit(tm) from Saturday con-going

Ooo you have my attention! I know I've done the obverse (somewhat. I piggybacked off of I think darkeningannon? And Roman but idk, I can't remember) but the other way is also interesting.

It could definitely be when everyone still trusts Punz. Hmmm, it could be like a power play on Dream's part, to show how 'rutheless' he could be towards what most people would consider one of the admin's old friends. Of course, both Punz and Dream know that it's fine, it's something that they've tested out before with the revival book at the ready, so they're pretty chillaxed about it.

Meanwhile, the group of I'm gonna say four or five? People who had confronted Dream are totally freaking out and tightening their grips on their weapons, because this just proved that Dream was an unrepentant monster.

Aaaannd then they all fight.

Dulces Sueños, Mi Sueño (Sweet Dreams, My Dreams), Mature, Chapter 1/6

I know I'm late to the party, but I promise that this has been worth the wait.

Excerpt:

“Now, George.” The guard says, and their tone wipes any trace of joy off his face. “Let’s say, for example, that you and Dream got to the end of the games, and it was just you and him left.”

He feels his throat tighten.

“Which one would kill the other?” They ask.

The lights are shining directly in George’s eyes. His heart is pounding heavily in his chest. All he can see is Dream’s bright, safe smile, so alive and beautiful.

“I think that-I think it would be like with the berries.” He heaves out. “We would eat the berries and die together.” A pause. “Like in the Hunger Games.”

Or, a re-telling of Squid Craft 2, told from the perspective of everyone who dies.

Calliope has such an incredible amount of nickname potential bro

ASDHNJSDJASH SUCH AS.?

[squidsandthings]

Freeze! ✧ ─=≡Σ((( つ•̀ω•́)つ You’re under arrest for being so lovely. Copy this message to 10 other blogs that you think are beautiful and deserve it. Keep the game going and make others feel beautiful!

Also, I just saw that you also like crane wives! Do you have a favorite song by them??

Ayyy tyty Sol!! We can go to jail together >:D

ALSO YES I LOVE THE CRANE WIVES they're tied for my favorite band lmao. My favorite song changes all the time but here's some of them: Hollow Moon, The Hand that Feeds, The Garden, Steady Steady, Safe Ship Harbored, Turn out the lights, and Take me to war are all ones I listen too all the time, If I had to pick one favorite I think right now it would be Hollow Moon or Turn out the lights.

For fic asks! 4,18, 24！

4. What detail in what a shame are you really proud of?

I decided to choose the fics bc im silly >:3

a detail in what a shame that I'm proud of is... I guess something I can reveal LOL

this will come into play muuuuuch later, but its Vash's aversion to alcohol. It is a very subtle moment in chapter..... 3? but Vash says something along the lines of "alcohol and I don't agree"

It's a nod to Vash's alcoholism in Trimax, accompanied with my own personal AU lore teehee

18. If you wrote a sequel to in the meadow, what would it involve?

a sequel to in the meadow would honestly have to involve the girls getting into journalism/plant activism

I think @veilder was the one who got me onto this (and I've certainly spoken about it) but my personal headcanon (FOR MY OWN FIC) is that the girls (meryl specifically) can't stay on the farm forever, and so they begin to advocate for plants around No Man's Land while the boys follow along and help streamline plant efficiency and care.

I think Knives is a bit reluctant at first, but he gets to see his sisters and connect with the hivemind and has a great time LOL

It would be a very general fic with maybe some adventure and some admission of their pasts to each other (more on Knives' part because he comes to trust Milly completely) and they find comfort in one another.

24. Are there any easter eggs in [TRIGUN COLLEGE AU] , and if so, what are they?

>:) so i have hidden various easter eggs in the college au posts, and have been very specific about not giving away some spoilers to the prequel story, and unfortunately i cannot share them at this time,,,,,,,, but just know i have been very deliberate about what I plant and the silly little elements that have or have not been included from canon.

[dooxliss]

You have a blue ringed octoling oc? That sounds so cool 🥺 Do you have any art of them? Would love to see/know more about them. If you want to share of course, sorry if this is a bother!

here comes the boy! ringo bleu!

this is from late 2022, but it’s the last time i’ve drawn him

he’s one of my older ocs, actually! first drew him in 2016

originally he had the backstory of being one of dj octavio’s kids and was ultimately forced to fight in the first hero campaign but i’ve been reworking everyone’s backstories so they aren’t all army linked

as such i’m not sure if i’m gonna keep all of his connections but i do know that i’m keeping the sibling relationship he has with a flapjack octoling (aptly named pan)

he does go to inkopolis post campaign tho and immediately finds out he does not do well in crowds 💀

in turf, he uses the tri slosher

[sanitizarium]

anon from earlier here - in my dream you posted something about how you hated the 'no talk me im angy' cat meme and i remember thinking "HOW COULD YOU. it's just a little creature" idk why that specifically and i have no idea what your actual thoughts on it are. i think dream-you also posted takes on roxas that i strongly agreed with tho so i forgave you /lh

you were also splatoon blogging but idk jack about splatoon in the real world so dream splatoon was just as incomprehensible to me

I WOULD NEVER BE MEAN ABOUT THE NO TALK ME CAT I LOVE THEM,,, also yeah the roxas one checks out HHSJDGJSDK hes my favourite i have so many thoughts on him.....

[circus-k]

got amiibo for splatoon!!! now the bestie i force to play on my acc has their own little squid

best part of the game is dressing them up

off the hook fits and the og build they had when all we could do was change the tentacle style of mono [ink saver, special saver, run speed, w/splatana]

plus some other fits just to look cool! tried to keep a theme (:

they all got the official terezi seal of approval so now i just gotta. kidnap them to take turns playing lmao

[4filen0tfound4]

I love games that include character customization that’s actually well thought out but also I need my splatoon character to like. Not. Give me gender envy
