search for wondla my beloved

Pov: you grew up reading weird fantasy in the early 2000s

[magic-is-something-we-create]

Heyo! I recently stumbled across your writeblr and your WIPs all sound super interesting!!

This is super random, but your mash-up pitch for Firekeepers just reminded me that The Search For WondLa even existed, and that I used to really like that book. Makes me sad that I think I donated my copy. That book was cool as hell.

Anyways, I'm super interested in a lot of your WIPs, and your mash-up pitches are really good too!! (I struggle comparing my own writing to things, so I don't have any for my books. I always worry that it's not a good enough comparison or it sounds too self-gradizing, even tho I know it's not.)

~Morrigan 🗡 (@memento-morri-writes)

Hi!!! Thank you so much, I'm glad you like them!!!

WondLa was one of my favorite series bridging middle and high school, and I'm always happy to remind people it exists!! The illustrations in there were one of the reasons I started getting more serious about art, and man, I don't know if you ever used the ebook version, but it had a whole soundscape!! Of the aliens and frogs and forests!! It blew my entire mind as a kid, and still kind of does to this day <3

And no lie, I struggle with blend pitches a lot. I've probably changed the ones on my pinned post six times since I made it. A nice shortcut I've kind of found is figuring out the major inspirations (e.g. with the Millennium Saga, Red Rising opened my eyes to what someone could do with both description and action, voice-wise; A:tLA inspired me a lot with the base of the elemental magic system the MCs use, and influenced a lot of the message/tone I'm aiming for; and WondLa has some particularly similar reveals that get into TMS spoiler territory, and also inspired me to get more Funky with my creatures and peoples all around <3)

If you want to know more about Firebreathers and the rest of the series, I'll be reblogging the intros sometime today!! I just recently finished the draft for the second book, and I'll be starting the third sometime in the next month or so :D

[sneakboots]

Another wondla fan! Whos your favorite character?

You bet! This is a hard question because I love them all with a different amount of inflection… but I have to say it’s Eight (😍 I want to marry her)

Thanks for the question!

[autumnalfallingleaves]

I have been rotating this girl in my head since July and I have FINALLY gotten enough spoons together to make an actual sketchdump of her (traditional, because digital stuff has been too many spoons as of late) 🫠 Introducing my newest OC, Dorothea "Theo" Kitt!

If you're thinking, "But Bean, isn't that just show!Eva?", sort of! Theo exists in book!canon WondLa, but, since all the Evas and Evans are clones, I chose to borrow show!Eva's appearance and use that clone model for Theo-- she was initially Eva Six of Sanctuary 602, but our Eva (taking on the surname Kitt post-canon because she got adopted proper :) ) found her as an infant in a sanctuary that was on the verge of shutting down and rescued her, deciding to raise her herself.

In broad strokes because I want to start expanding on all this, Theo is confident and outgoing; she would be punk if that concept ends up being reinvented in the time period Orbona exists in. She's a graffiti artist and a mechanic and her most beloved possession is a motorcycle-styled hovercraft she calls the Flotsam. (I'm still working on finalizing her coat colors, but the gist of it is that it's a Cærulean coat she modified and painted.) Her best friends are a surly Halcyonus named Mælegra (Mæ to her friends but absolutely no one else) with mad scientist tendencies and a Dorcean with anxiety named Bohlaan, who would rather learn textile-making than continue the hunting traditions of his clan. Theo absolutely adores her family and friends, and would do anything for them. Runs in the family!

I really want to work on some more stuff with Theo, so that'll happen at some point :)

I should post on this blog more, but it’s a little hard to interact with other fans of the series, i.e, I have to put more effort in to find fanart/ramblings/general appreciation for it.

There’s something so bizarrely puzzling about finding that you are responsible for changing the emptiness of an abandoned or underrated piece of work. You have to be the archeologist who uncovers a dusty underground fandom; you are not one who should wait around for the expert to show up—because they will never come. I’ve found that to be true with fixating around WondLa, because there is a push and motivation to provide other people with what you create, in hopes that they might see that there are other people out there who love the same media in similar ways.

This was a long post to say: I am happy you are here, even if you are not as planted in the WondLa fandom as I am, even if you are just following me to be reminded of your once beloved childhood book series, even if you have moved on to other types of media. I will stick around for the enjoyment of the small pool of people who find niche excitement in seeing random posts about a series they haven’t thought about in eons. And I will continue to make over-glorifying and nerdy WondLa posts, I will continue to work on my nearly 15+ half finished fan fictions about the wondla trio and beyond, even though my grueling writers block has followed me for two whole months now. I know that the WondLa tag isn’t all that active, but I will make it so, even if right now I have no motivation.

I am willing to carry this tiny fandom on my weak shoulders! So, again, if you want/have an urge to interact with me about this series, please do! I want to hear all of it. (Mutuals, you are not obligated to if you feel like you have moved on to better and greater things! I am content with limited interaction and spontaneous activity on my blog)

This is also a nagging promise to myself to complete and publish at least some of my works by the end of this summer//

Alas, this post is finally over. Thank you for reading. Congrats on reaching the end. ://)

[noiselessbuck]

no ok your point about hailey's race is excellet because as a brown little kid i absolutely identified with him (and being trans had that sort of thing where its gender envy before you knew what gender envy was) and yeahhh the way he was drawn more white in the third book was strange. i simply chose to ignore this similarly to how i ignored Eva 9's hair going blonde after the transformation because she was me and thus she had to have messy dark hair and brown skin. (the green monochrome gives a kid plenty of wiggle room to project now that i think about it) anyways poc Hailey for life <3

absolutely love your ideas for Eva's outfits and now I'm also thinking about gender presentation on Orbona and how the Ceruleans and other species probably have their own gender customs my addition to Evas wordrobe would be these: idk what theyre called but yes

pintrest says they are "steampunk pants" 😎

also feeling the sinking loneliness of college: anyways wondla asks: what do you think eva's style would be after she is able to pick out more clothes for herself? what is your favorite peice of worldbuilding? and- thoughts on hailey turner?

🥲❤️‍🩹 We can get through this together, friend. I am a junior and I am not ready for all the work ahead of me. I just want to daydream about Eva Eight but I am afraid the world is against me--

Eva's fashion style? OOHH; she is a light rust color scheme type of gal-- foliage detailing everywhere. Snug linen tunics, as that is an all too familiar article of clothing that she grew up with, but still contains enough personal flare like dolman sleeves and shoulder pads. Eva would LOVE sleeveless vests! Also consider; jodhpurs. Not the boring ones for women, I’m talking male jodhpurs that slightly flare at the top (not too overboard— we need that bagginess but not much). Yes, she would wear male clothes when she’s older; that’s guaranteed. I’m sure Orbona would have certain ones that are fit for riding waterbears maybe.

Favorite piece of world-building? The biomes/ecosystems. When it is done right, the new and imaginative creatures that come out of it are spectacular! (One of the reasons WondLa will stay with me for years to come.) | think when creating/writing a story, the habitual settings are extremely important, because they shape every single character, as they are all influenced in someway by their environments!!

Now Hailey Turner is a great character, I love his interactions and banter with Eva Nine, and he has some hilarious dialogue. I only wish his character was explored more... in depth. I have said this multiple times, but I would love for us to get more info on his dad and honestly, the Toilers in general. I feel like we don't get much on the retriever way of life, which would give a lot of character and nuance to Hailey.

(Side tangent, but I was and still am confused on Hailey's race- the guy looks as tan as can be in the first illustration we get, but slowly gets more Caucasian features as the series progresses? Doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things but I always imagine him in his earlier form. Also, I have seen many a post on what little Hailey Turner content is on here that have discussed him as a trans guy, and I am ALL for that head cannon. Will be drawing him with stubble and a charming binder in the future, I have to, come on.)

To wrap these thoughts up, I think Hailey is overflowing with potential, and has a very cool dynamic with Nine. I don’t see them as engaging in anything romantic over the years, but they do get closer. All that Hailey needs is a solid character arc and a sidekick animal. Mayhaps a stray dog that wandered into the retriever camp. Am thinking hard.

Thank you for the questions, you always come up with great ones 😊
