#varian au

[dimenscape]

ummmmm.... hi. Sorry that I haven't been busy on this page for a while. I'm trying to figure something out with backgrounds, because I have to make them myself or find something online to work with. I will try to post something in the New Year.

But anyways, here's the link to my newest story! It's an AU where Varian is a part of the TMNT 2012 storyline! (basically, a rewrite). I already have chapter one out and ready for people to read, and right now I'm in the process of writing chapter two!! If you're a Varian fan than give it a go! If you're a TMNT fan, then give it a go as well! If you like crossover or I haven't mentioned anything else but wanna check it out, then give it a go!!

It's the first time I'm posting on AO3 and I'm trying my best to use it. The story will have some changes along the way, but that's not so important right now. With each season, a new book will be made for it. If you guys want me to post this to Wattpad so you can read it there, then let me know, I might just do that!

I hope you guys are doing well! Merry Christmas! Happy Chanukah! Happy Kwanza! Happy Holidays! And stay safe!!

Making my comfort characters into warrior cats

day 1: Varian!

I have a feeling he would be a mediator.

he does a lot of alchemy in the tv show so I thought it would be cool to give him burn scars

His name is Skypaw; when he’s fully trained he will be Skywatcher.

This is from an au made by @pinkwindowwithin my beloved

Hi bestie I sent this to you and immediately forgot to post it for like a month or more idk ngndktm

This is one of my absolute favorite TTS/RTA AUs. (The artwork might have a lot to do with it too, 🥰 lol.) I'm a Cassarian shipper along with NewDream and Varipunzel, but this particular AU struck a chord with me when I first came across it during the pandemic, and I fell in love with it. I'm a huge fan of star-crossed and feuding family stories, so that could also be why I like this idea so much. 🫠

I have a new AU for you guys *gasp*what a shocking twist!

So, I recently noticed a very interesting (and very direct) parallel. But this time it’s not between Varian and Rapunzel, oh no, it’s between Varian and Cassandra-

Operating on the assumption that Quirin was actually King Edmund’s top knight - this would mean that both Cass and Varian are the children of high-ranking officers (whether biologically or otherwise.) And that got me thinking; what if Quirin never left the Dark Kingdom and Varian was brought up to be a knight, like his dad? The Dark Kingdom appears to have a much more medieval atmosphere than Corona, so it would likely be expected for the eldest/only son of a knight to eventually become one too.

Then I thought, this could also work in tandem with the Prince Eugene theory!Say Rapunzel and Eugene were never taken away from their homes and were both raised as royalty. This opens up the door for a forbidden romance (or two, if that’s something that interests you.)

I think I’m gonna call this the Enemy Kingdoms AU.

Not sure where any of the other characters would fit into it (yet), but I think Stalyan should be the princess (or noble lady) of an allied kingdom who he’s expected to marry.

So in love with this idea. I'd totally see that being a Varian thing. Esp since the snake/dragon is such a universal symbol of knowledge. ���

Would villain!Varian get any tattoos? If so, what would they be of? (Personally, I'd imagine that in having a history of being hemophobic - and perhaps even trypanophobic - I'd imagine it would potentially be an intimidating prospect for Varian, even after going rogue. But perhaps he would go through with getting one if he thought it would gain him more respect from the crew and/or to go with his aesthetic, drama queen that he is. xP)

Oh boy I forgot I had this ask even tho I drew this a week ago.

It took me a while but ultimately I decided he does get at least one tattoo, but of course it had to be alchemy related because this boy is a huge NERD.

So @that-one-girl-behind-you gave me the idea of “dat snake thing” as she told me on the chat, an ouroboros.

The brainrot took over and so here's a vat7k hadestown au!! Don't know if I'll develop it fully but I liked designing it at least!

More info under the cut:

- Varian, the Coronan royal alchemist, tasks himself with deciphering an incantation capable of bringing the world back into tune. Times are tough, and the royal family + Quirin are doing their best to cope with the meagre crop yields and desolate weather (Corona not really being the sunshine kingdom - hasn't been for a while). He wants to help and do good and I think he'd be a good Orpheus.

- Hugo, having moved about from place to place, still has his interest in alchemy and does what he can to get by. He plans on temporarily staying in Corona before looting, but he encounters a certain like-minded scientist at the Snuggly Duckling. I think him being selfish works especially well in Eurydice's role, having a more pessimistic view of the world. It also works with how he gets drawn to Donella's offer of working for her later on, leading him to his death.

- Ulla as Persephone! I was initially stuck on whether to have Rapunzel (and either Eugene/Cass) as her (and Hades) but I was drawn to the connection that Hugo has to Donella and the Donella/Ulla relationship in vat7k just works too well. In this case, Ulla won't be Varian's mother. She's still gonna be somewhat of an inspiration to him though, being the previous Coronan royal alchemist and for her intelligence. For half the year, she'll return to Corona with food, drinks, and alchemical compounds/inventions, bringing Spring and Summer to the world, if only for a bit.

- Donella would be such an interesting Hades, losing sight of her love for Ulla, heart filled with fear and hurt, leading to bitterness and cruelty. Ingvarr being Hadestown and how by being the esteemed Ingvarrian engineer, she'd be in charge of major technological advances across the kingdoms and so would wield a significant amount of power (like how Hades is literally the ruler of the underworld). Ingvarr essentially being a near death sentence for its workers while also displaying its technological prowess, all still shrouded in mystery and corruption - a place so otherworldly compared to the rest of the kingdoms.

I didn't want to modify the outfits too much nor the personalities,, if anything I imagine the general plot beats being the same as the original musical/story but with slight differences that'd you get inherently as a result of these characters. I wouldn't want it to be the case where it's just the show but the names are changed. I'd want this to still make reasonable sense in this AU, with the actions being understandable for this particular cast of characters.

For Hermes, I ended up picking Xavier, as he's most knowledgeable of old legends and stories, which would work in reference to the Hades and Persephone myth (and so Donella and Ulla)! He'd act as a mentor figure for V, someone who can guide him in uncovering the forgotten incantation. Quirin would still be the good supportive dad he is (even if he doesn't fully understand his son's project).

Last but not least, the fates!! often lurking in the background, I'm still a bit stuck on who it could be? I'm tempted to have it be Raps, Cass, and Nuru as they've had celestial connections at some point (and ya know how stars can represent fate), but I also love the freckled siblings dynamic so much. Also Team Radical... Maybe Raps and Cass can be their normal selves but their Sundrop/Moonstone counterparts are the manifested physical forms of the fates? They wouldn't be visible to the characters though, just voices in the wind.

Anyways yeah!! Those are my thoughts. Do let me know if you've got any cool ideas or questions. I'm really combining my interests at full force and there's nothing anyone, not even myself, can do about it quite frankly. 😮‍💨

Porcupine ahh reaction

The bois

I've seen people doing this trend and thought that I could draw these two. Since I don't draw them that much.
