Cookie would have a rabid raccoon.

Rourke has a Maine Coon (they're big and they can seem to have two different personalities)(I have one)

Sweet has a ragdoll/Norwegian mix. (Imposing presence, but actually quite friendly)(i also have one of these)

Packard has a black cat of some kind. Don't ask why. Because she can. She's a badass like that.

Helga has a Siamese. Somehow that just seems to fit.

Audrey has a stray tabby that wandered into the garage one day and never left.

Milo has his Persian.

And Mole brought in a mole and called it a cat.

Kida has a domesticated panther or lion.

Trying to get some dopamine into my brain so I imagined the Atlantis: The Lost Empire cast with cats. We already know that Milo loves cats since he had Fluffy but what about everyone else? What would the cat’s personalities be like?

…Why do I feel like Cookie would adopt a possum and call it a cat? Or better yet his cat just looks like this.

Actually, I take it back, that’s Vinny’s cat. 🤣

Meet Team Atlantis

Find out cool facts about the brave explorers who go in search of the lost city of Atlantis!

In 1914, a young adventurer named Milo Thatch dreamed of completing his grandfather's quest to find the legendary lost city of Atlantis. Though some people thought Milo was crazy, a wealthy businessman agreed to sponsor Milo's expedition. Milo joined a group of daredevil explorers on a dangerous mission that took them under the sea and to the center of the Earth.

Round 1A: Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) vs. Newsies (1992)

Propaganda:

Atlantis: The Lost Empire:

“I know Milo is trans because he is exactly like me in every other way why wouldn't he be this way too”

“Milo is a twink and Helga is butch I rest my case”

“Audrey”

“Helga Sinclair is literally there, gay awakening of many along with Kida and Audrey”

“Literally everyone on the exploration team is some form of queer coded except for Commander Rourke. From weedy Academia Disater Bi Milo, to lesbian coded mechanic Audrey, to the crotchety, gossiping, seen it all and death's too intimidated to take her old queer Wilhelmina Packard. Plus how all of them wear their crystals at the end of the movie... They are not straight.”

Newsies:

“i could make a supercut if i had the energy. 1: kenny ortega word of god confirmed trans racetrack, 2: the male leads get a balcony scene, a weird alley scene where one shoved the other against a wall by the chest and it’s REALLY gay, at the end when jack decides to stay it cuts to DAVEY (these r the male leads) instead of sarah (the love interest), 3: in one of the songs one of the characters sings “ain’t i pretty” and one of the other guy characters nods. also it’s a musical about the underdogs/oppressed winning yes it’s based on a real thing but yk. and they made the ending a lot happier and all the main characters are amalgamations of people/made up”

“Just gay as hell tbh”

“Kenny Ortega, the director, confirmed that he purposefully queercoded it! Jack and Davey almost kiss like 20 times and the have a balcony scene also Blink and Mush are constantly cuddling in the background.”

“it’s directed by a gay person, same guy who directed the high school musical movies, so everything that’s super gay can be assumed to deliberate, literally certifiably gay coded. it revolves around the friendship between these two guys. it’s a lot to get into maybe i’ll get back to you later but it’s really gay and also my favorite movie, i mean my name on here is literally transfagjackkelly”

On Milo, yes. BUT he's not just a swimmer. Given how modest we know he is, and how casually he says "Oh I swim pretty good" before holding his breath for an inhuman amount of time and keeping right up with Kida and not being completely exhausted after it all, I'd say he's WAY understating his ability. The reality? Milo gets in the pool and it turns out he's a male Katie Ledecky (INSANELY good American swimmer)

My Rourke is there watching, wearing a bedazzled-as-fuck shirt supporting Milo that he personally hates (he's not a fan of bedazzled anything on him), but he's wearing it anyway because Milo got this huge happy smile on his face when Audrey had Rourke wear it for him after she made it (she made them for everyone) and he loves seeing Milo smile. And as soon as Milo gets out of the pool after each race, Rourke runs over and hugs him. Especially if he just won gold.

Boxing is indeed a thing. I gave it to Audrey, though, and figured she'd have stories of training with her sister and having it as their special sister activity.

Rourke could definitely do wrestling or weightlifting, though. He definitely seems like a guy who can probably lift his own over-250-pound body weight. He could also probably do good on the rugby team.

They do have a few different types of shooting, so Helga would probably do that. (She's hella tall for a gymnast at about 6 feet)

Kida would do either a martial art (judo, karate, or taekwondo), something track & field (javelin comes to mind), or sport climbing)

Mole is busy trying to convince the IOC to make digging an Olympic sport.

The others are all great!

Dammit, @thetinyadventurer now you have me thinking about random nonsense Atlantis things. I'm trying to think what each person would be in at the Olympics (I was watching it on TV)

[frustrated-writer-skyeknight]

Crescentia (Atlantis AU)

The technology is similar to the types in Treasure Planet.

Crescentia is a mythical place where Hiccup believes an energy crystal lies, that not only powers technology but tames dragons.

It is later discovered the Crescentia is not yet in ruins, but still an island where inhabitants live. It is home to the Mageborns, special beings that can possess magical abilities. Although now, there are only a handful of those still with magical powers. The rest of the Crescentians just has a long lifespan, and they can shapeshift. So, it's either you're a mage or a shifter.

North, Thiana, Aster, and Sanderson are the head guardians tasked to protect the island from invaders.

Nightlight is the ruler of Crescentia, and his brother is Johkul.

Dimitri is a shapeshifter and a trainee to be a guardian. He's Johkul's childhood friend.

Casting:

Hiccup Haddock - Milo Thatch Jack Frost - Princess Kidagakash Jim Hawkins - Audrey Ramirez Dimitri Sudayev - as himself Astrid Hofferson - Helga Sinclar *but unlike Helga, changes her alignment when Jamie and the others does* Jamie Bennette - Joshua Sweet Tuffnut Thorston - Vinny Santorini Ruffnut Thorston - as herself *replacing the role of Wilhelmina Packard, but isn't on PA duty* Fishlegs - as himself *replacing the role of Cookie, but he's a better cook.* Snotlout - as himself *replacing the role of Mole, but he's the weaponry specialist of the group* Drago - Lyle Rourke Nightlight - as himself *replaces the role of the old king*

Dialogue ideas (will update more later):

Hiccup: No, no. I'm fine, I got it... Eep! *trips over and knives spill out of the crate he was carrying* Astrid, rolling her eyes before walking away: Jim, coming over to clean up the mess and help Hiccup up: Jeez, I used to fend off bullies protecting guys like you. Jim: Also, she's already a thing with the medic. Might want to ease up with the flirting. Hiccup: Really? But that other guy was flirting with her, too. So, I thought... JIm: That's Snotlout. Pro-tip: Never follow his lead on absolutely anything... Unless your intention is to get punched in the face, then by all means, it's your funeral.

Snotlout: Don't worry guys, I got this. Charming people is my thing. Jim: Since fucking when? Snotlout: If I may *beckons Jack closer* Jack, in amused curiosity, agrees to lean closer. He gets kissed, and he punched Snotlout as a response. Dimitri follows up on that and hits Snotlout's gut once with the non-pointy end of his spear... Jim, applauding: Woo! That went better than I expected. Astrid: 'bout time somebody did it. I'm just sorry it wasn't me. Jamie: I'm surprised it wasn't you, too.

Hiccup: Oh yeah, we haven't been properly introduced. I'm Hiccup. Jack: My name is Johkul Frosti. Hiccup: Yo... Yoko.... Do you have a nickname? Jack, chuckling: Jack will do.

Jack: That is Toothless, a Night Fury and the alpha of the dragons in this area. Jack: He'd have to be, since they are only a handful of Furies and the white one, the Light Fury, is his mate. The rest of the little Furies are his young ones. Hiccup: Are there more dragons? Jack: Of course, but it might take too long to show you... Hey Hiccup, before you have to leave tomorrow, I need your help with something.

Dimitri: So, what do you call this? Jim: That is a gun, and give it back. You could hurt yourself with that. Dimitri: How could such a tiny thing do... *Accidentally pulls the trigger and the laser shot grazes his hand a bit* ouch! Jim: I hate to say I told you so... No, no I actually don't. *Sees the wound heal itself* Okay, that is cool.

Escondida no Reino de Atlântica, Atlantis prosperava em paz. Mas um dia, uma maldição antiga lançada pelos deuses do mar caiu sobre a cidade perdida, transformando-a em uma cidade fantasma submersa. Milo James Thatch, um estudante de linguística, recebeu a missão de decifrar uma mensagem deixada pelo seu avô, que o levou a encontrar o portal para Atlantis. Ele liderou uma expedição de cientistas, exploradores e aventureiros para desvendar os segredos da cidade perdida. Ao chegarem em Atlantis, eles se surpreenderam com a beleza e a tecnologia avançada da cidade. Mas nem todos na expedição tinham os mesmos interesses de Milo. Alguns estavam lá apenas pela ganância, tentando encontrar tesouros e artefatos valiosos para enriquecer. Entre eles estava a ambiciosa e perigosa Helga Sinclair, que faria de tudo para conseguir o que queria. Enquanto Milo e seus amigos exploravam as ruínas de Atlantis, eles descobriram a princesa Kida, uma atlante com poderes mágicos, e logo se apegaram a ela e ao seu povo. Mas, infelizmente, a ganância de Helga e de outros membros da expedição colocaram a cidade em perigo. Eles tentaram roubar os cristais que mantinham a energia e a essência de Atlantis, desencadeando uma batalha épica que resultou em muitas perdas.
