I've been working on this on and off for like a long time and honestly I kinda hate it now, but this is like a revamp of these but with the Beasts too lmao

This also has a headcanon I have of if the Legends had virtues like the Ancients and Beasts

Also yes I'm aware Fire and Moon might fit more if they switched but I have lore reasons leave me alone

I think it's kinda interesting how, while the Beasts are opposites of the Ancients, some feel like reflections to Ancients they're not directly related to.

Starting with the pair that feels most obvious, Silent Salt and Dark Cacao. Their designs especially seem similar with the armor, sword, and color palette. Silence also feels like it can be related to Dark Cacao's isolation during his previous arc.

This feels the same as with Pure Vanilla and Mystic Flour. Again with their color palettes, but also with their religious theming, both being obligated to help all those that seek their guidance.

Again, mostly similar vibe with these two. You could even argue that Destruction can be considered an extention of Passion in a way. These next pairs get a bit weaker with their comparisons, which is why I started with the strongest ones first.

My comparisons for Golden Cheese and Eternal Sugar come down to both of them having wings and some speculation I have. "Eternal" I feel could imply abundance, which may be a motivation for Eternal Sugar's slothfulness. It's possible they simply have all they desire, thus no longer having the will to do anything.

Lastly, for White Lily Cookie and Shadow Milk, the biggest point of comparison I have is that Shadow Milk Cookie's theatrical presentation could also be considered an extention of freedom (especially since it's implied that he used to be an academic). This is the one I really stretch the most with, I'd say.

Why do I bring any of this up? What I think about these possible links is that the Beasts reflect what each of the Ancients could become, if taken to their logical extreme. Also, with those that share their Soul Jams being their opposites (Pure Vanilla being truth and Shadow Milk being deceit, etc.), it can imply that each of the Ancients are each other's opposites as well. Opposites that mesh well enough despite it, anyway.

I'm bad at analysis, so do what you will with this. I don't know if this is anything. Implications and whatnot.

I ascended into another dimension and made this-

[satureja13]

The TukTuk brought the Boys to Steam Station. Where they are supposed to take the train to who-knows-where... Hopefully to get to see Ji Ho.

They are already late and Sai, Jeb and Vlad went ahead to check in. Jack, the youngest (and strongest), is in charge for their luggage - and his good 'mate', Kiyoshi, who has a not-quite-here day today. The station master told them the train is departing soon from track 1.

Better not miss it! Sai: "Come on, Vlad." Poor Vlad is still deep in despair. He wasn't able to connect to Ji Ho through the bond since Ji Ho collapsed ingame. How is this possible? He didn't even hear Sai calling him. Jeb: "Vlad. Let's go. I'm sure we are going to see him soon, hm? And Noxee said he'll be fine." It's hard to keep the spirits up. The others are worried too, and they are blaming themselves for putting their therapies over the necessity to protect themselves against the Siren's Songs and Ji Ho's evil grandfather.

Jeb bought them some sweets from the trolley and a few seconds later, they already heard the Station Master whistle.

This is the Otherworld and this isn't an ordinary train. It just moved through the portal!

But it wasn't like travelling with warp speed or teleporting. After a while, they saw the countryside go by again.

Jack: "Ouf! These were the last crates!" And to the Station Master: "From which track is the train leaving again?"

Station Master: "Oh, I fear you just missed it." Jack: "Oh no... - eh, ok. From which track is the next train leaving then?" Station Master: "There is no other train anytime soon. Not this year, at last." What? ö.ö'

Time to bring the demon/deity out in Kiyoshi. They can't loose the others and be apart from them to not summon the prophecy Future Jeb made! So Jack tried to summon Kiyoshi: "Kiyoshi - I need you. Please - come back to the here and now - to your body - back to me! I need your help!" And really - Kiyoshi blinked twice - and seemed responsive. Jack told him what happened.

Kiyoshi seemed to understand and ran outside - to the TukTuk... Jack: "Uhm, yes. The TukTuk could teleport us. But we need Vlad and Ji Ho for this. It already had been hard enough for Vlad to bring us here all on his own."

Nonetheless Kiyoshi urged Jack to climb in. His eyes started to glow - and the TukTuk rose up in the air! It took them a while to locate the train so they could follow its track.

Sai, Jeb and Vlad had been so busy and in thoughts, they hadn't even missed them! Jeb was complaining that they still don't have any signal, so they are not leaving the Otherworld as it seems.

It had started to rain again a while ago and the seeing wasn't very good, so Sai first thought he was imagining things. But soon Vlad stood up and said: "Is this what I think it is?" It was! The TukTuk!

They scrambled up and ran over to the compartment next to theirs, where they supposed Jack and Kiyoshi - it was empty...

Saiwa: "I told you yesterday - I'm the worst leader of them all." Jeb: "No you're not. It happens. We are all out of our heads, hm?"

Jeb: "It will all be well. They'll follow us and meet us there." Whereever 'there' is...

Jack: "You are unbelievable!"

The idea of a flying vehicle isn't entirely new. Last year Jeb and Sai had flewn with Francine's flying Ford Anglia to Tartosa 🚙

Jack fell in love with Kiyoshi! 💞

Gah! It took me forever to reply to this!

@visualtaehyun tagged me in a thing (picrew - it's cute) and it was so sweet and I was so happy and excited - and then I started a new job weeks earlier than expected, in a new country and there was no time for Tumblr for me (sad eyes).

I had also been using a side blog because I did not realise bl would become my main everything, and side blogs don't let you have mutuals. So I swapped urls -> if you think you follow me, you don't, I'm over here now (hi).

in lieu of mutuals to tag I thought I might tag the people whose content is responsible for the Thai-bl-as-main-blog life I now possess. Thank you for fun and for making cool stuff for me to metaphorically eat. You make my days more wonderful (yay).

(You don't have to do the thing, I just thought it was a great opportunity for me to tell you that you're cool and I appreciate it).

Do y’all ever remember that Commander Cosmo is still stuck inside the Necrostar somewhere. Like. He’s gonna be there for another 77 years still until Rav blows it up in 2100. He’s still stuck in there. Wild.
