#yes he was designed to look like a blue jay

[wasyago]

YAGO!!!! GAHFRHRHAHARHAHRHRF IM BACK (Design Detail Anon back << i dont know what to call myself LOL) I HAVE MORE WORDS

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON BIOLUMINESCENT TRITONS?!!!?! Obviously Gillion's eyes and coral already glow cause of his funky scrungly squelchy magic BUT what if... he had little glowing freckles... scales? im not fully sure how fish people work.

Your designs for Gillion and Edyn already do an amazing job of separating their underwater biology from humans like Chip and Jay (thinking of the glossy skin, the tails, and the yellow sclera/slitted eyes)- like it's very easy to tell by looking at them that while they are People they are very much FISH People. Which of course sounds pretty obvious but I mention it because a lot of triton art I see usually just looks like a blue person with gills and fins, if that makes sense.

But to expand on my original question- both Gill and Edyn are from the trench, and, in my logic, adjacent at the very least, to other deep sea creatures like anglar fish and some squids. They already have darkvision but the image of them having little hidden patterns when they get super deep in the ocean is... so cute...

im realizing after Ive written all of this that it kinda stopped being a question and started being a ramble so I do apologize :']

(on another note I love your caspian redesign it does a really sweet job of incorporating literal elements of water into his features *smooches him* **respectfully***)

OMG!!!! i love all your thoughts this is so cool thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (and thank you!! i tried very hard to make caspian look like a water spirit and not an ocean creature and still make him interesting visually...)

you know, now that you've said that the trench is deep under water im realizing that it's something i didn't actually think about. like, i remember hearing Gill say that he's from the trench, but it never actually registered in my brain that trench = deep and dark. everything makes so much sense now oh my god.... finn saying "why did they keep this from us" about the sun, because the sun simply doesn't reach to where they live...

i dont know why i imagined the capital as this bright white sunny coral reef when it should be dark and mysterious and harsh with no sunlight. bruh. it makes so much seeeense. and all the talk about strict rules for safety and foodchain and danger, because they're literally so deep there's a lot of giant spooky creatures.... hold on im having a worldview change.... oh god....

considering all this... YES bioluminescent tritons!!!!!!!!!!!! i imagine they don't glow too much, since while tritons are pretty smart they don't have a lot of natural protection from predators and attracting attention would be suboptimal. but they do have glowing parts for um... reasons. idk, they're magical creatures in a magical world.

i imagine their stripes and eyes and hair and underbellies all emit a glow in low lighting, and in complete darkness only the stripes are visible. and every triton has a unique stripe pattern or color so they're all different like that.

idk how it actually works. like, if they glow in any darkness or only in the darkness under water (although it wouldn't make a difference since they're always wet) or only when they're very deep or if they can choose when to glow or when to not, but its still a very cool detail!!!!!!!!!!! glowy fishy people yayyy

Doodle World Awesome Squad from my Mind Palace 👾👾

Design Explanation Paragraphing under the cut !!!! Where I really talk about the how and why of it all ^<^

So excited to post this !! I do hope ye all like it, I was super excited seeing people like/reblog my last post as I've felt a little awkward posting Doodle World art just due to not knowing anyone else who played the game eeeekk.. BUT these are my 'headcannons', I guess you could call them; for the main Doodle World group !!!

> Suzie : The shortest of the group at 5'2"!! Due to the body type used for her in-game, I have always pictured her as being on the bigger side!! Her hair is like a Jellyfish cut, if you guys are familiar with that. Or.. well that's how I interpret what is happening. And I think she looks totally cutieful <3 I draw her with blue eyes for reasons unknown to myself, I have just always given her blue. Her pants are worn/faded at the knees and slightly frayed at the end. Her footwear is closer to boots than runners!! She is in-game, shown to be closer with the player, and that stays to be true in my version of them also.. I think they would have matching friendship bracelets...

> Quincy : Second tallest at 5'7.5" [didn't originally care about the .5, until it was a way to one up the player]. Got rid of those awful glasses he wears... please take them off Quincy.. gave him regular white frames specs instead!! He is a little blind. Also grey-ish eyes?? Again no reasoning. Is on the slimmer side in my mind, not much muscle, because I believe he was a sheltered, rich kid who didn't have to do much- until this adventure, of course. His outfit also doesn't make much sense for travel because well.. I don't think he really expected all this running around we have been doing. His shoes are bright white, and his jeans look brand new. His shirt is pressed !!! ..He has grown on me a lot I can't lie, I never disliked him, though.

> TJ : Tallest of the group!! 6'0"!! He has always just felt tall to me.. maybe that is crazy. He has wider shoulders that sort of replicate his in-game model, as opposed to Quincy, I do believe TJ has worked out/exercised at times :P His outfit is more relaxed, I debated with sweatpants for a while, I do think baggy jeans suit but either or make sense to me. The knees of his jeans are slightly worn, his hoodie is definitely bigg and comfy, and his shoes are definitely made for maximum comfort and running around. Hair change going off model simply because I like this style a lot more, and I think it suits him really well, and then brown eyes !! He also has thicker eyebrows than Suzie and Quincy, no major reason I just think thick eyebrows rock !!!1

And finally, not really necessary;

The Player! Or in this case

> Jay : Standing at 5'7" to replicate myself, Jay is a mix of me and my roblox avatar in looks. She has broader shoulders, which are very much hidden under the baggy hoodie. She also has thicker eyebrows, matching TJ. His outfit is similar to Quincy's on the pure coincide of that is what my avatar was wearing when I first joined Doodle World and finding it funny, I've kept the matching rival outfits since. Despite the similarity to Quincy's clothes, Jay's are very much perfect for this adventure (the main reason being the jumper shirt combo is fake!! It is one item of clothing... he has been lying to you). The jeans are baggy, worn, faded, and fraying in places- but the extra pockets really do come in handy at times. Also a glasses wearer!! As I'm very much far from 20/20 vision.. and of course; train track braces !!! Let's goo !!!!

Well, that has been an absolute ramble session !! I hope that made sense if you did read all that. I mainly just wanted to explain how I see the characters and my reasonings, if any.. behind why. Especially if I want to post more artwork of them all :D!!!

[the-ninjago-historian]

Ninjago Remastered Designs!

THEY'RE DONE! After months of work!!! They are DOOOOOOOOOOONE. WOOOOOOOOOOO! Lol! Welp, these are my Ninjago designs! Basically, this is my take on the Ninja if they were in a 2d animated cartoon! And yes! I will be drawing more characters. Tumblr butchered the quality, so close ups and design notes are below the cut. They're pretty detailed, so I highly recommend checking them out. Feel free to ask questions about the designs! ⬇️⬇️⬇️ - ✒️🐉

When designing these outfits, I tried to take inspiration from the ones in the show. And in terms of art style, drew inspiration from early 2000s cartoons, (Action Adventure ones specifically,) Anime inspired shows, and even a hint of traditional Disney animation. And while I designed them with a 2d cartoon in mind, most of the designs would most likely have to be simplified for them to be used in animation. So let's get started!

Kai: Kai was a pretty fun to work with. I actually didn't plan on giving him a sleeveless outfit. But it happened! And I like it! If you'll notice, the flame pattern on his vest mirrors the pattern on his sister Nya's outfit. I thought that would be a cool detail to include. It was inspired by their March of The Oni outfits. I also made sure to include his scar and bandaid. And gave him reddish brown eyes to signify his elemental power. Him and sister I imagine being Brazilian/Taiwanese. So I hope I captured their ethnicity properly. I'm pretty happy with this design. Especially his hair, which was hard to replicate.

Jay: Jay was a hard one for sure. I wasn't too sure how to vamp up his outfit. So I started by giving him some lightning patterns on his Gi. (At least I think that's what it's called?) And I decided to make it look a little baggy and soft. It just seemed to suit him. I tried something a little more form fitting and didn't look right. Also! A fun detail I included was his half the Yin Yang pendent around his neck! And of course Nya has her half. I imagine him having Irish ancestry, so I gave him pale, freckled skin. And gorgeous curly red hair. (As a fellow red head, I'm very proud.) Overall, I think he turned out pretty adorable. And his face is spot on.

Nya: Nya I pretty much got right on the first try! I just had a really clear vision of her in my head. I gave her a grey outfit with bright, vibrant blue details. The pattern on her Gi is inspired by Koi Scales. And she has her half of the Yin Yang pendent around her neck. I really like this one, because while it is simple, it's beautiful. And I think it reflects her element nicely. The only thing I missed was to give her a symbol like the rest. But overall, I love it! One more thing is that I wanted to give her and Pixal different hair. So when I finally release my Pixal design, you'll see that while they both have ponytails, I gave them different cut and styled ones. Should be neat!

Zane: Zane was the first one of the Ninjas I redesigned! I love how he turned out. I tried to give him a splintered ice effect on his outfit inspired by his Core minifigure and gave him his faithful falcon companion. Falcon has his old greyish purple feathers, but blue icy eyes to match his owner. I also wanted to give Zane flowing sleeves, that would look very majestic waving about in a blizzard wind. He is also incredibly tall. Taller than Cole even! I was inspired by the giant humanoid robots I'd seen in movies. In his cloaking disguise, I imagine him looking German. With blond hair, blue eyes, and light skin. I also like to think Dr Julian was German. (Was this influenced by my German ancestry? Who knows?)

Cole: You would not believe how many times I had to redraw this man's face. Haha! I just could find that sweet spot! That face that perfectly encapsulated his strong, but gentle personality. But I think I did it! His outfit is based on his Oni Trilogy Gi, with orange detailing. And he has his Island ponytail and bandana. I absolutely loved that hair style on him. So I had to use it! And if you'll notice, he has a beautiful tattoo on his right arm, with his symbol in the center. I imagine him being half Maori, from his mother's side. And the tattoo was inspired by Maori tattoos I saw pictures of. I'm not too sure how accurate those images were. But hopefully I hit the mark.

Lloyd: Finally! Our green Ninja Lloyd! His outfit was inspired by two things. Dragons, and his outfit from the Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitsu seasons. I gave him a beautiful golden dragon and cloud pattern on his clothes, a leather arm guard, and shoulder pads. If you look closer, you'll also see he has cat-like dragon eyes which pays homage to his dragon and Oni heritage. I like to think that depending on his emotions, his eyes will go from slits, to big and wide. So they are good indicators for his mood. I also imagine him being Japanese. But his powers give him his classic blond hair and green eyes. I'm very happy with this design. His hair, eyes, and face all look exactly how I see him in my head.

Well, that's all. I hope you enjoyed these designs and notes! I assure you, you will see more of the them.

Bye! - ✒️🐉

[alsfunkyalbum]

Saw your bird Leo, knew literally nothing about him, went straight to your blog solely to find the reference pics, and then spent over an hour and a half feverishly drawing him meeting my Leo fan kid, Hamato Maya. She's super excited to see a version of her dad that's also part bird like she is!!

I'm actually gonna go read your fic about him, but not til tomorrow cuz it's way past my bedtime by now.

Hope I got his tail right btw. And I might have forgot the feathers on his legs.

Also is he a bluejay? His wings look like a bluejay but I'm not sure. Whatever bird it is, he looks really cool!! <3

Alrighty, first of all. I fuckin love this and this is really cool, and yes I saw the post on Artfight aswell !! I really appreciate this and you drew him so well !! I am actually smiling so much !!

Your fankid is also pretty fuckin awesome bro !! They're so pretty and I love the design a lot.

Also yes, he is a blue jay!!

I really appreciate you taking the time to do this. I can't find enough, or even the right words to express how much this makes me happy. It truly means so much to me.

TWITTER SUCKS! > twenty-eight! kiss the girl

synopsis > who knew you could become famous overnight for paying $8 for a single blue checkmark? however, it does come with consequences…what happens when the actual BELIFT Lab comes knocking at your door. all because you simply impersonated your bias.

masterlist | previous | next

vote for my next smau here!!!

a/n: more lore and jieun getting roasted to the ground. she about to become a pack of roasted peanuts💅🏻 (idk don’t ask).

fun fact! i’ve been to HYBE before. well not go in HYBE but I have stood outside HYBE before and I must say it’s really nice.

you have never felt this nervous. your fingers gripping the ends of your sleeveless. you were about to meet ENHYPEN. the people who helped heal you from your horrible breakup. god, you were terrified of messing up.

you walked up the steps and through the revolving door (yes, HYBE has a revolving door. like what is this a hotel??). there was a receptionist so you were about to walk up to them and tell them about it but someone pops out of nowhere.

-

“oh? noona.” jungwon says. you turned around and you gasp. this was yang jungwon in flesh. you nearly yelped in excitement but you should definitely not act like a crazy fan. also they really meant it when they said camera never does idols justice. jungwon looked way more prettier in real life.

“jungwon.” the younger boy smiles.

“heeseung hyung has been so nervous about today. he kept straightening his shirt and making sure his hair was-” he chuckles. “ah, you should just meet him. follow me!”

you glanced at the staff at the reception and jungwon notices.

“don’t worry. you are with us, i’m sure they wouldn’t mind.”

“yeah but shouldn’t I get a pass? surely, I can’t just enter the building like this.” jungwon pouts.

“okay, maybe I should call the manager down here.” he dials for the manager and enhypen’s manager comes down. there was a slight administrative work but it was settled quickly. though…the manager kinda did have to lie about you were being a new staff but it was for a good cause so who cares.

jungwon opens the door for you and walked in. the others quickly took notice of you and you felt overwhelmed.

“noona, you’re really pretty in real life.” jake says. it earns a smack from sunghoon.

“yah yah, heeseung hyung’s girl. you should know the bro code.” sunghoon says.

“i’m just complimenting her. is it wrong to compliment someone?”

“it’s not wrong, it’s just that everytime you compliment someone. they just take it as you’re flirting with them.” jay says. jake was about to argue but he stops himself before pouting.

ni-ki turns to look at heeseung. “hyung, are you not going to greet her?”

“uh-” he clears his throat. “yeah. hi (name).”

you smiled, “hi heeseung.”

heeseung could feel his heart racing. your smile was pretty and he liked it. he wanted to see it more often.

“heeseung, you have an interview so you need to change and get your makeup done.” jieun enters the room. she realises you were there. she glares at you.

“and who might you be?” jieun gives you a fake smile. one that you could clearly tell was sarcastic and fake.

“she’s a new staff member.” jungwon explains. he points to your ID card.

“her? please don’t me she’s part of the fashion team or makeup team. she can’t even plan her outfit and makeup right.” jieun says. sunoo rolls his eyes.

“i’m sorry but judging by your outfit choice today…” he scans her outfit. “yeah, you look like a hot mess. not stylish at all. aren’t you supposed to be our stylist?”

jieun scoffs, “I am a makeup artist not a fashion designer.”

“your foundation is caked up. better remove it, you look like a ghost.” sunoo sasses. jieun stomps her feet and leaves the room.

“damn, is she always like this?”

“with sunoo mainly.” sunghoon says.

“we don’t waste our energy on her because we find her annoying. sunoo does the roasting most of the times. he enjoys seeing her storm off.” jay shrugs.

“anyways, noona. are you and heeseung hyung going to have a date? a company date?” ni-ki smirks. heeseung shoves the younger boy.

“no. it’s a friendly date.”

oh it’s a friendly date. you dressed up nicely for nothing?

jay pulls heeseung aside.

“noona, how about we reach you how to do ‘drunk-dazed’?” jake suggests.

“in a skirt?” you say. jake flushes.

“uh, okay maybe not ‘drunk-dazed’. what about umm..”

“whoops too bad. sorry! I’ll take (name)’s time now!” heeseung grabs your hands and pulls you away from the boys. he quickly leaves the room with you.

“first step complete!” sunoo clasps.

“are you going to get mae and subin here?” sunghoon asks jay.

“should we? I think (name) noona might get suspicious though.”

“who cares if she gets suspicious. she’s going to literally find out hyung likes her and they both have feelings for each other.” sunghoon says.

“sunghoon hyung is right. we should get mae and subin here. they know her best.” jungwon says.

“alright, if leader nim says so.” jay says.

in a matter of 15-20 minutes later, mae and subin appeared at the practice room.

“where they fucking?” mae says upon entering the room. subin smacks her arm.

“unnie, that’s not nice of you to say that. she and heeseung oppa are just chatting.” subin says.

jay stares right at mae and swore his heart leaps. which was weird because he has never had this happen before. sure, he had crushes but something about mae was getting to him.

“hey bud, you’re drooling.” jake nudges. jay rolls his eyes.

“I am not. anyways, hyung and noona went to the rooftop cafe. it’s famous up there for date spots between staff and idols.”

“oooo is there mint choco in the cafe?” subin asks. sunoo gasps.

“you’re a true sunoo stan.” he goes to hug her. subin freezes. mae snorts.

back to you and heeseung. he hands his card to the cashier and pays for the drinks.

“so…what did you and jay talk about?”

“nothing, he’s just teasing me. that’s all.”

“oh. that’s umm sweet?”

heeseung chuckles, “really?”

“I mean you guys have been friends for 7 years now. you guys practically like siblings. teasing is only a common thing in a friendship.”

“so you, mae and subin tease each other a lot?”

“only recently when-” you paused. were you about to expose your feelings for him? what if you do tell him though…what could happen.

“only when?”

“i started to have a crush on you.” you whispered the last part. heeseung tilts his head.

“i’m sorry, I couldn’t catch the last part.”

“you. I have a crush on you.” you blushed after admitting it. heeseung’s jaw drops.

“order for lee heeseung!” the barista calls out.

“i-” he stood up. “I’ll get our order. one second.”

you mumbling and smacking from somewhere and you spot a familiar sweater that subin loved wearing. that’s when your eyes widened, the other boys and your friends were listening in. mae realises you had seen them so she drags the others away. heeseung places the tray on the table.

“umm, i’m sorry i dumped a whole big bomb on you. I shouldn’t have expose my feelings for you when we quite literally just met in person-”

what you did not expect was for lee heeseung, your bias, your crush and the man you liked, to kiss you. heeseung places a finger under your chin to tilt your head up so he could kiss you easier. you wrapped your arms around his neck and kissed him back. only a couple of seconds later, heeseung pulls away.

“don’t doubt yourself, I like you as much as you do.” he pecks your forehead.

splash

a gasp was heard after you heard a cup fall to the ground. when you and heeseung turned back to the sound, you realised it was jieun. her fist was clenched, she runs. probably to inform the other staff of you and heeseung. both you and heeseung turned to each other, there was a knowing look that both of you knew.

you had to stop jieun and expose her

New Ninja Designs (with head cannons)

Okay, so I improved my art style and changed some of my techniques, so now they all have their own face shape instead of looking like carbon copies.

My height HC’s:

Zane: 6’8”

Cole: 6’5”

Kai: 5’8”

Nya: 5’7”

Lloyd: 5’4”

Jay: 5’3”

Yes, I know that Lloyd and Jay are rlly short, it’s purposeful, okay? It’s my head cannons anyways, it’s not like I draw them like twinks, personally, my head cannon is that Jay might be lean, but he has muscle and can still kick ass, same with Lloyd.

I personally made Jay short and Nya tall because I like that dynamic, it’s not seen a lot, I just love it, I feel like Jay gets insecure over his height, and that he’s not taller than Nya, but Nya always reassures him, and makes him feel good about himself, they’re both emotional and mental support for each other.

For Lloyd, I just couldn’t help it, I laughed at the thought of Lloyd being shorter than Arin and Sora, and like, one day, Sora pokes fun of it, and Arin kind of just chuckles, and Lloyd’s like ‘oh yeah?’ And wins in a monitored fight with them easily.

Close ups:

I changed his ears, I kind of just grew out of his old ones, and I like these ones way better, I also added scars on his face, and slight eye bags (bcuz of season 2 of DR), the chocker covers a scar on his neck that he gets slightly insecure of, him, Kai, and Nya have matching ones that the two sibling bought for Lloyd. I only gave him one horn cuz, I dunno 🤷🏻‍♀️ . I personally head cannon that Misako is fully Japanese, and of course, Garmadon is Oni and Dragon as far as we know.

Kai didn’t really change much other than his choker tbh, my head cannon is that Ray is fully Hispanic, while Maya is half Polynesian and half Chinese, Kai looks Hispanic mixed with some slight Asain features, while Nya looks more Polynesian.

The marks on her face are lighter than the rest of her skin.

I changed Jay’s irises, his human looking eye is blue with a regular pupil, while his other is from season 1 when he nearly got turned into a serpentine, the color of it is yellow. His bio mom, Libber, is white, and his bio dad, Cliff, is Korean. He also gained a chin scar from a time where he fell and cut his chin of a sharp piece of metal when he was building something.

Cole didn’t change much either, only his eye shapes. My HC is that his mom was black, while his dad is Japanese.

Was originally going to draw him smiling, but it looked weird. He was designed to look human, but the race he looked more like ended up being Asain, which I kind of just toss Korean around when asked.

Eyes:

Lloyd’s eyes are like a cat, he gets it from the Oni.

Kai’s eyes are brown, but when he uses his powers, you can see hints of orange and red.

Nya’s eyes are a grey, but can look very light blue while indoors, or in shade, if you look long enough. (Jay was the first person other than Kai to figure this out)

Zane’s eyes are just an unnatural icy blue color.

I kept the eyebrow slit, I couldn’t help it, also, when he uses his powers, you can see hints of what looks like lightning.

Cole’s eyes are brown, but when using his powers, you can see hints of orange.

Hope you like it :D

My Ninja appearance head-canon

Note for me(and others who wonder my interpretation)

Focused on pre-S8 design, especially S1-S2.

Mostly Asian or European in my headcanon, and I don't think deeply about their gender or sexuality. Just an appearance note for my further drawings.

Zane

Scandinavian or Northeastern European. Russian is great too (Actually this is STUNNING that mad scientist dad who ran away from soviet union and raised his futuristic robot son in secluded forest OH MY GOD)

183cm (6 ft), quite heavy due to his metallic body

Platinum blonde, sky blue eyes, pale skin.

Cold and stern look but smiles always. THE SCIENTIST'S DAVID STATUE. BEAUTIFUL.

Snow leopard or Wolf.

Cole

Northeastern Asian, Chinese or Korean. Sometimes West Asian or Latin American?

I don't care about his ethnic. I usually think of him as Chinese actor(Lou is definitely Chinese, I can say that. I FELT that Chinese vibe from him.) or K-Pop idol(especially Suho from EXO). Since he's inspired from Tom Cruise, I'm fine with him being white too.

Black wavy hair, black eyes with double eyelid, long eyelashes. Thick eyebrows.

Skin varies, but not a fair one. Tanned?

185cm or shorter, 80kg, very muscular.

Stern and serious face. THAT HANDSOME DUDE

Tiger

Kai

Southeastern Asian, like Vietnamese or Taiwanese with Jewish dad

Brown hair(dyed or just because of his dad), brown eyes.

175 or shorter, slender-average weight with muscle.

Resembles his father(Ray; Jewish) a lot.

Hyena or rooster.

Ray

Definitely RDJ in my headcanon.

Nya

Southeastern Asian, like Vietnamese or Taiwanese with Jewish dad

Black straight hair, black eyes. Tanned skin(darker than Kai).

165cm, skinny.

Kinda that stereotyped southeastern asian girl/woman look; mono eyelid, fox eye, flat curves, boyish look… resembles her mother(Maya; Vietnamese or Taiwanese) a lot.

Hyena or hen.

Jay

Irish.

175 or shorter, plump-average weight with less muscle.

Ginger brown hair, blue eye. Red/pinkish skin.

Resembles Olaf from Frozen series, sometimes I see Elijah Wood or Tobey Maguire in him. (Actually he's inspired from Tobey Maguire)

Poodle.

Lloyd

French (yes because of that La-Loyd meme)

114cm → 162cm → 172cm or shorter. Balanced body.

Golden, wavy hair. Green eyes. Righteous vibe.

Cute but classical handsome face. Young Mark Hamill. I sometimes see Felix from Stray Kids from him.

Golden retriever or dragon.

Just please look at this angel oh my god

Garmadon

Well he's Oni; monster now. Never think of him as a human.

But I can see Harrison Ford now lol

Wu

Blonde hair but having straight asian god beard… He even lives in some Chinese Kung-fu dojo but actually is a Japanese ninja sensei. What the heck is this lol

So really hard to guess. I stopped thinking and just consider him as some white weeaboo or something

Misako

Anna Friel I guess? I love her speaking french in Timeline(2003)

Morro

Mexican or Northeastern Asian.

168-174cm or 191cm, lean.

Straight black hair around his shoulder. Green streak in his bangs. Dark green eyes. Pale, little greenish cadaveric skin.

That typical long black haired, depressed, villain-but-has-a-reason guy. Loki, Severus Snape, whatever. Sly look.

Black snake or black cat.

I want to kill myself everytime I think of him as this two wonderful rock band guys here:

Darath

HE IS JAMES CORDEN (ignore Tom Cruise)

You know what?

For me, pure North eastern asian, Ninjago is a total shit which mixed every asian culture without any thinkings. (Thank you for not ruining my culture. Really.)

Rural area is like southeastern Asia. The monks are mostly Mongolian or Himalayan style. City, culture, food and clothing is mostly Chinese, but they named everything under the name of Japanese ninja things…

It's like… America but located in the middle of France. But their accent is Brit, but eating Italian food, and say they're Spanish themselves. How disregarding…

And Japan's ninja is actually is a cruel secret agent who mainly deals with espionage, assassination, and murder. To be honest, it's not a job that gives me that positive vibes. As civil servants and nobles, samurai were a much more recognised class.

Also their main theme: Practice of righteousness and cooperation is similar to that of a Taoist from the Central Plains(China).

It would be great if I could go and work at Lego animation team, I will tear down all these crazy white tyranny.

Ninjago Characters in Petz

[image ID: Zane, Cole, Nya, Kai, Pixal, Lloyd, and Jay from Ninjago, redesigned as cats in the video game Petz. end ID]

You see these critters? I made these. I meant to make a post about them but then forgot, so I'm doing it now, lol

This post is pretty lengthy, so here, have a readmore:

Briefest possible introduction to Petz: It's a series of virtual pet games from the 90s, and it has a prolific modding scene. You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petz

The creations I will be talking about in this post were made for Petz 4.

Terminology:

"Hexing" refers to the process of creating a mod for Petz, since it required a hex editor in the early days, before dedicated programs were made. Hex editors are still used for some modifications, such as changing a petz' personality values.

A "hexie" is a breed or pet created via hexing.

The first NinCatGo (yes that's what I call them) hexie I made was Zane, because he's my favourite character. I initially intended to only make Zane, but he was so dang fun I decided to make some more.

Next up was Jay. He blends in incredibly well with most of the carpets and rugs in this game.

After Jay was Nya. Designing her was SO fun! Like Jay, she also blends into the carpets and rugs. She's doesn't act as angry as she looks, but I based her off of the Black&White Shorthair from the original game, and those cats are just kinda like that...

[image IDs: Nya from Ninjago recreated as a cat in the game Petz. she has blue fur with black tiger stripes. her belly, face, tailtip, and ear insides are lighter blue. her nose is dark grey, her whiskers are blue, and her eyes light blue. end ID]

Next, I made Kai. I used Nya as a base, but recoloured the tiger texture I was using, and made his tail and ears crooked by borrowing some code from the Alley Cat, a base game breed.

[image IDs: Kai from Ninjago recreated as a cat in the game Petz. he has red fur with brown stripes. his belly, tailtip, and ear insides are orange. he has a red nose and whiskers, and bright red eyes. he has multiple kinks in his tail, and his left ear is shorter than the right. end ID]

After that came Cole. He's the first one I made a texture for; all the other textures are either from the game, or downloaded from other websites. Cole's lava texture though, that's all me!

[image IDs: Cole from Ninjago recreated as a cat in the game Petz. his fur is black, and his face, belly, and ear insides are orange. his tail and legs have been textured to appear to be made of lava. he has black whiskers, a dark grey nose, and yellow eyes. in the third image, he is carrying a pink yarn ball. end ID]

Then came Lloyd. I left him for last (I didn't plan to make Pixal at the time) because his modifications are the most complex, requiring me to make a new tail, ears, horns, and mane for him (modifying the original tail and ears wouldn't work, because it would cause the animations to break and just generally be horrifying).

[image IDs: Lloyd from Ninjago recreated as a cat in the game Petz. he has green scales, with blonde fur on his legs, tailtip, face, throat, and ear insides. he has a blonde mane, and two black antlers. he has black whiskers and bright red eyes. in the third image, he is wearing shamrock-shaped glasses, a yellow collar, and a yellow tail bow. end ID]

Shortly after creating all of these guys, I decided I hadn't had enough, and made Pixal as well. I used Zane as a base, and created a new circuit texture for her. Considering there's a total of like, two purple colours available in the game's palette, I'm very happy with how she turned out.

Congrats on reading this far! If you like what you see, may I suggest giving Petz a try? For new players, I'd suggest downloading Petz 4 from this site: https://mazzew.neocities.org/ (warning for flashing imagery!)

You can also see some more images of these guys and a bunch of other neat Petz stuff on my own site: https://thecatingrey.neocities.org/

I hope I can manage to inspire at least one Ninjago fan to pick up Petz. It's an incredibly fun and low maintenance game, and unlike games like Animal Crossing and Nintendogs, time doesn't pass in-game when it's not on. This makes it the perfect virtual pet game for someone like me, whose Neopets are currently languishing and whose Animal Crossing island is in shambles.

Not to mention, the community for the games is incredible. I always struggle to describe it in words. Never before have I seen an online community this friendly and welcoming. The amount of talent I see every time I visit a new site is mind-boggling. I've genuinely been inspired to learn new skills because of some of the amazing things I've seen.

There are people who have been in this community since the games came out, and there are some websites that are nearly as old. Finding this community opened my eyes to a whole new world- one that I thought disappeared before I could use a computer. But the old web still exists, and there's a place for you in it.

My fellow dareth enjoyers dareth won the water elemental master poll for my metal nya au. Now unlike my other post I don't have a set in stone lore or lore ideas, doesn't help I got sick woohoo. So I'll talk about the design.

Fun fact I originally started sketching this in brown so this gi started as a brown one, it looked neat so I saved it in case I wanted to make an actual brown ninja dareth in the future (if you would like to see that lmk). While designing this I decided to use the same gi design principle of nya and metal nya's gi-s but I changed the black parts to brown to make it feel more dareth-y, yes this does kinda make him the oddball but that kinda also intentional.

I gave dareth's gi pants that cowboy thing that dareth has in his og design.

I gave him this style of glove which I normally wouldn't do because they're the mark of....a special person (wink) for now for lore reasons dareth is allowed to have them by me.

I chose this blue because its the complamtary color of his brown, but also because its not close to my nya or jay design. I gave him heels because he ~💅, I put the pattern all over his gi unlike nya's.

I feel like dareth is alright with using his power but absolutely exhales when put in a stressful situation or when definding someone  (which is cannon), he dumb, he will jump to action without thinking. I like to think his room is so aesthetic with a cowboy hat as a decoration. No reason. Just cowboy.

POYW Rewrite V2 - Harry Hook x reader - P7

=

Harry looked, and felt, so out of place. He turned in the boy's locker room mirror, scowling at himself. Bright blue and yellow were not his colors, and the fabric for the uniform was weird too, it was clearly designed with full mobility in mind while using breathable fabric to maximize comfort. Harry pulled at the two yellow hoodie strings that were far longer than they needed to be, wondering why they were even there?

As far as he knew, fencing usually had full body armor, not a peek of skin to be shown, so why did fencing parkour have hoodies with no sleeves and pants that were loose enough to hike above his knees? “Auradon’s fuckin’ weird,” Harry grumbled, grabbing his fencing gloves and helmet, collecting his sword at the amphitheater entrance, and putting his gloves on; nodding as Fergus came over and greeted him with a grin and a hand on his shoulder.

“Ye ready? There's only a spot open sae ye gotta gie it yer best, or at least; better than lae ay them,” Fergus gestured to the other guys who were trying out for the open spot on the team, there were about 7 total, including Harry. According to the rule book Harry had been given by FG, there were eight main players plus their captain; nine members overall. And currently, the team was down a man thanks to one of their players moving away.

“Aye, that should be easy,” Harry chuckled, spying Gil, Jane, Jay, and Carlos on the 2nd floor. Gil and Jane waving enthusiastically, he grinned back and turned back to Fergus “Who do I need ta impress?”

Fergus pointed across the room, and Harry noticed the captain standing on one of the parkour blocks, wearing a black and yellow uniform instead of blue and yellow, a clipboard in hand with their sword balancing on their leg. Harry’s jaw dropped-realizing who the captain was. “(y/n)?” Harry gasped, his jaw dropping open. Fergus laughed, hand on his stomach as you looked over your shoulder at Harry, grinning at him. "She’s tha' captain?”

Fergus nodded, adjusting his gloves and grabbing his sword-making sure the protective tip was on. “Aye, she's bin teh keptin fur abit a month an' a half now-beat Chad out ay th' captains position.” Harry nodded, recalling one of the rules that if one challenged the captain and won-with approval from the coach-they would become the new captain.

You blew the whistle around your neck, gaining the attention of your team and the new guys. “Okay! We’ll have two matches. The seven of you will have a match against each other, and the last two standing will be going against the eight of us, if you can last-you’re in. That is-if you impress me, fail to do so, and I’ll simply have to hold another session,” you said sternly, reminding Harry of Uma. He licked his lips, lifting the fencing helmet to sit at the back of his head as you instructed the 7 of them into 2 lines, three on each side and one at the end.

“If your sword gets knocked out of the ring, you’re out! If you are tagged on your torso, aka the vital area, you’re out! If you’re knocked out of the ring, out!” Harry glanced around-seeing a thin but bright yellow oval surrounding the area-once you stepped out-you were out. So it was like normal fencing but-way more complicated and included parkour. “If I see any foul play, out! Remember-while these swords have protective tips-their blades are still very real-play safe and play nice. Ressembler!”

Harry took a moment, but figured that was the command to stand straight, sword and balance hand out straight-since that’s what everyone else did. He took a deep breath, eyes on you. You looked back, smirking at him and he felt a flutter go through his gut; he forced himself to look back at his opponent, giving him a sharp smirk as he stared back-clearly afraid of Harry as he swallowed harshly-averting his eyes. “Salute!” Harry lifted the sword so the blade faced the ceiling-his eyes not leaving his opponent. “lower the point-masks down!”

Harry drew the blade down and shifted his mask in place, his vision barely obscured through the thin mesh. He smirked; he had this in the bag. Since he was a kid-he had been trained in many forms of combat-from fencing to hand to hand. His father wasn’t a captain in the royal armada for nothing after all.

“En garde!” Harry got into position; his hand carefully balanced behind him with his sword in guard position. Everyone held their breath, the onlookers chattering amongst themselves as the 7 competitors stared at each other. “Begin!”

And just like that-everything moved in a flash, Harry quickly and easily parried the swing from the opponent in front of him-and in three quick strikes-he had taken their blade and tossed it aside out of the ring. “Colby-out!” Harry grinned from beneath his helmet, leaning backward from a swing and using his free hand to cartwheel with it, landing on his feet and blocking another swing, and pushing his new opponent back with such strength that they stumbled and fell out of the ring-taking off their helmet to stare at him in frightened awe.

Harry spun on his knees and dodged another blade by rolling under it, flipping up and striking their back-if this had been a real battle-they would’ve been dead. You agreed, calling them out. Now there were only four competitors left-Harry being one of them.

Harry flipped over the blocks as the three others clashed with each other-two smacking right into each other and falling to the ground in their confusion-leaving just Harry and the other competitor by default.

“Well, that was anticlimactic,” Harry chuckled, removing his helmet and cackling at the two who had smacked their heads hard enough to disorientate themselves-even with their protective gear-and were disqualified from the match.

“….Well that’s that,” you muttered, staring down at the two doofuses who had head bumped themselves out of the match, the two looking sheepish as they joined their fellow disqualified competitors. “all right, take five-get some water, then the final match begins. I want your best foot forward you two.” you guested to Harry and the other guy, both nodding.

Harry froze as the other took off their helmet-revealing the Pan kid that had been in his history class the day before and missing from his class today. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw you and Gil tense up-Gil already preparing to jump over the ledge and tackle Harry. “Hook, right?” the Pan kid asked, their vivid green eyes on Harry. Harry swallowed, that familiar itch burrowing into the back of his head. Pan beamed, their eyes lighting up. “Wicked,”

Wait what?

“What?” Harry voiced his thoughts, blinking wildly as Pan held out their hand with a grin. “I-you?” Pan laughed, not unkindly. “What? you thought I was gonna pick on ya? Nah-I ain’t my dad. I’m Tara.” Harry stared at Tara for a long moment, then slowly took their hand, that itch at the back of his head dissipating.

You and Gil relaxed, your shoulders dropping as you let out a sigh of relief. Tara was a bit of a trouble maker but you were glad they could see that messing with Harry wasn’t the brightest idea. Harry licked his lips-taking his hand back as Tara smiled at him. “I expected ye ta be…” Harry paused, wondering how to word his sentence.

Tara’s smile just turned sad. “Like my dad? Yeah, I get that. While your dad def ain’t a good person,” Harry snorted-that was an understatement, “my dad really did set off the whole thing, I mean-he cut off your dad's hand?! Who wouldn’t want revenge?” Harry laughed loudly at that, nodding.

“Aye,” Harry muttered, his eyes drifting to his left wrist-where a long-healed scar sat beneath a tightly wrapped bandage. The two Neverland kids turned at the sound of your whistle, and Tara patted Harry on the shoulder. “Good luck! I have a feeling you’re gettin’ that spot.” Harry nodded back, sliding his helmet back on and taking a spot at the end of the two lines as you directed.

“Same rules as the match before, play nice play safe.” You said loudly, jumping down from the block and grabbing your helmet, taking your place at the end. “Ressembler! Salute! Lower the point, masks down! En garde...Begin!”

Metal rang loudly within the theater-the onlookers gasping as Harry and Tara went toe to toe with the members of the Roar team. Harry was face to face with Chad Charming-the blonde directly going for the vk with powerful and dedicated strikes. But he never landed a hit-Harry had practically been trained in this sport since he was a kid-used to moving about in unpredictable and uneven terrain-using it to his advantage and adapting techniques on the fly.

Harry spun on his heel-his blade whipping around his back and blocking several strikes from Chad, backflipping over a swing from Chad and landing on a block-he flipped off again, catching Chad’s blade mid-air and pushing him back; chuckling as Chad lost his balance and flipped over the block-his sword flying off in another direction.

A whistle blew-coach. “Chad-out!” Harry could feel the seething glare as Chad scrambled to get out of the battle field-watching as Harry whirled around and blocked another blade. Harry recognized this one as Ben, who laughed from behind his helmet and the two went toe to toe for a moment, Harry switched hands at one point as they moved about, and that stumped Ben long enough for Harry to knock his sword out of his hand, strike his chest, and push him out the ring.

“Ben, out! Aziz, out!”

Harry turned again, ducking under the swing of a blade and rolling away, turning and parrying the next blow away and then trapping the blade to the floor, hearing a familiar cackle come from the helmet. Harry blew a kiss and Fergus did it back, laughing as Harry kicked up and away-Fergus able to catch himself before he tumbled over a black and landed on his feet.

Harry was faced with two opponents-both seeming to agree to get him out together. Harry just grinned-two vs one? Too easy. Harry swiped at them to make them jump back and then used a block to flip over their heads-striking their backs with two quick slashes. They groaned-knowing they were beaten and hurried out the ring, taking their helmets off to watch the rest of the team compete against each other, Tara, and Harry.

Harry was the prime target for most of the team-but, not one person had landed a scratch on him, he seemed to be always one step ahead-his mind constantly running and keeping him sharp. “Has he always been that good?” Harry heard Jane ask Gil, Jay responding for him.

“Yeah, since we were kids, the Hook kids have always been some of the best duelists on the isle, if there’s one blade you don’t wanna get on the wrong side of-its Hook, even drunk he’s a damn good swordsman.” Jane made a concerned noise at the mention of Hook being drunk but turned back to the battle, gasping as Harry twisted under and through several swinging blades-hopping to his feet and blocking a blade from hitting his back, swinging his sword back around and smacking another blade away from his front.

Harry spun the sword in his hand, turning it in an arch and spinning down into a crouch, knocking several blades away and two ended up out of the ring. The whistle blew; “Tara, out! Herkie, out!”

Soon enough, it was just Harry, Fergus, and you left-all breathing heavily and staring each other down. Harry jumped back as Fergus jumped at you, quickly planting his feet and engaging in a quick battle-it was over before Harry could blink; you cartwheeled back, spun down-slid your blade into the gap between Fergus’ guard and handle-pulled it out of his hand-caught it, spun on your heel and kicked him in the gut-sending Fergus off his feet and the prince landed on his back-laughing all the while.

“Fergus, out! Last players standing, captain (y/n) and Harry Hook!”

Harry stared you down, the two of you circling each other as everyone stared with bated breath. He could feel the smirk behind your helmet and you tossed away the sword you stole from Fergus, rolling your shoulders as Harry cracked his neck. Oh, this was going to be fun.

You were the first to strike-stepping forward and Harry’s blade met yours-the sound of metal ringing in Harry’s ear. Three quick steps back-five forward-Harry swung at you twice and you took another step back, smirking from beneath your helmet.

A pause and Harry giggled-this time was taking the first strike and pushing you back, and Harry felt like he was fighting against one of the isle pirates again; immense skill hidden beneath fabrics of yellow and blue. Harry aimed for your lower torso but you easily maneuvered his blade away-leaning away from him slightly as Harry drew back, blade up and ready to strike or defend.

“You know what you’re doing, I’ll give you that, excellent form.” you chuckled, and Harry snorted back, the two of you still circling each other. “But how's your footwork? If I step here-“You moved to the right-your blades clashing as Harry quickly stepped to the left-one two three four-your blades met in the air-a pause. “Very good-and now I step again,” you went left this time-Harry following you forward and the two of you switched spots-Harry’s back now to the coach while yours faced the team.

“Holy shit,” someone muttered into the sudden silence. The team watched in awe-because since your arrival, not one person had lasted this long or shown such skill. “Think Harry might beat her?” another asked, and Harry huffed, keeping his eyes on you. “Maybe? He’s really good, but they’re both just playing-this is just-training to them-I never wanna see them go full out if it means they’re this scary just practicing.”

Harry grinned beneath his mask-and then he stepped forward-your blade meeting him in the quick strikes he threw at you. One, two, three, four-swipe, parry, dodge, flip, roll, swipe-five, six, seven, eight-parry, block, spin, block, swipe, block twice, roll, block again, parry.

Everyone was practically hanging off the edge of their seats(if they were in one) as you sparred, moving about the ring-over and around blocks-your blades clashing every other second. Some started chanting his name, calling for him to take down the queen from her throne-he guessed that meant you.

Swing-one, two, three, four, five-parry, flip, crouch, spin-six, seven, eight nine- flip, block, pause. One, two, three, parry, swing, block, parry-four, five, six; there was a sword at his neck. His blade clattered to the ground as you continued to push forward till he was on the floor, blade at his neck with you standing above him.

The silent amphitheater burst into applause as Harry stared at you, his face warm and chest rising rapidly as you took off your helmet and grinned down at him-your eyes as bright as the florescent lights that bathed you in a light that made you look like a fairy. “Good job! You’re definitely roar material,” you said, out of breath as Harry continued to stare up at you. You held out your free hand, Harry took it and took off his helmet as you pulled him up, grabbing his shoulder when he was on his feet. “Welcome to the team Harry, honored to have you.”

Harry let out a huff, still staring at you as the team came over and congratulated him-asking him about his training and who had been his teacher-since they hadn’t even seen someone put up a fight like that since you came to Auradon and took down Chad! And you hadn’t even fought like that back then!

Harry didn’t answer, his eyes still on you as Gil and Jane came down to congratulate him. you turned, smiling when you locked eyes. He couldn’t help but smile back, the feeling-that was slowly becoming familiar-of butterflies flooding his gut and chest. Harry cleared his throat-turning to Gil with a grin, not seeing the look on Jane's face as she glanced between you and Harry-Fergus raised his brows with a smirk when Jane looked at him.

-

The rest of the week went by quickly, math was getting easier-chemistry was a blast now, Harry had ended up making some sort of pasta dish for Merryweather for the weeks end assignment and he ended up acing the end-of-week quiz for history. As for remedial goodness, he might've fucked around a bit and got a D on his quiz, smirking as FG clicked her tongue at his answers.

All too soon-it was Saturday night, and Harry hadn’t been able to get you to take him and Gil to steal the wand. He had asked, and you did say yes….but-

“I would, believe me, buuuut” you chuckled awkwardly, rubbing the back of your head as you stopped taking a bite of your lunch and turned to glance back at Ben “I’ve been banned from stealing the wand-at least until after the coronation, something about security.” You gave him and Gil an apologetic grin. Harry narrowed his eyes, but…wasn’t stealing the wand already banned? Harry voiced his thoughts “Ain’t ye technically already banned from stealing the wand? Aren’t we all?”

You shrugged, nodding. He wasn’t wrong. “yeah? But I’ve been officially banned,” you chuckled, giving him another apologetic smile. “so yeah, would, but can't. Sorry.” Harry just nodded, picking at his nail. He had failed to get you to take him to the wand, now he had to go along with Mal’s plan.

Love spelling you.

Fuck.

-

Mal looked up as Harry stepped into the kitchen, the two staring each other down for a long moment before Harry sighed, rubbing his face. “She can’t take us ta steal the wand,” Harry grumbled, pinching his nose as Mal slowly nodded. “as per our deal, we’ll go with yer stupid plan,” Harry grumbled, clicking his jaw as Mal nodded again, a smug smirk hidden behind her shoulder as she turned to grab a tray to bake the cookies on.

If she gloated-he was going to break her damn nose.

“We’ll do it before the game tomorrow,” Mal said, scooping the cookie dough onto the tray, the oven beeping to say it was ready. “Right after the pep rally, that way we’re all at the school at the same time,” Harry slowly nodded, sniffing as he looked down at the cookies.

“Did ye put those walnuts in em?” Harry asked, pointing down at the cookies. Mal nodded, continuing to scoop out the dough. “The lass won't eat it, she hates walnuts.” Mal paused, slowly closing her eyes before looking up at him, her lips pressed together in frustration.

“And you didn’t think to tell me this before I made the batch?” Mal hissed, and Harry just laughed. “I didn’t know till yesterday when Jane offered ‘er chocolate covered walnuts-acted like they were Brussel sprouts.” Harry smiled at the memory, and Mal stared at him.

She blinked, sighing and picking two cookie rounds out and spreading them, glad she had used mostly whole walnuts instead of crushed ones. “There,” Mal muttered-taking out the walnuts and rolling up the dough again. “walnut free.”

Harry licked his lips, damn-he was hoping he found a loophole for you. He eventually sighed, turning and going back to his room. ignoring Mal when she asked him where he was going.

Harry got dressed for bed-his eyes catching onto his golden shell bracelet. he stared at it for a long moment, pressing his lips together. “For Uma,” he whispered-he could do this, he had to. For Uma, for his sisters. For the isle.

He slid into bed, now catching his Roar uniform in his laundry hamper, he stared for a long moment then turned over-covering his head with his blanket as Gil walked in from a last-minute tourney meeting; pausing when he saw Harry in bed-the covers over his head.

Gil stared for a moment, then got dressed for bed. “Goodnight Harry,” Gil whispered and Harry just hummed, his eyes locked onto the shell bracelet. “For Uma,” he whispered to himself, bringing his wrist to his forehead and pressing it against his skin. “for Uma.”

-

Pep rallies fucking sucked. An hour spent in a sweaty brightly lit gym with everyone screaming and being so damn loud over a fucking sports team.

The only reason he went along was to support Gil, and that was it. Harry easily decided Pep rallies were just; overstimulation the event-too bright, too loud, so many things happening at once, being squished between too many people.

It was just-ugh-never again. He said as such and Gil laughed, saying that Harry never had to go to another pep rally again if he didn’t want to-but thanked him for coming anyway. Harry just pouted and followed Gil out to the lockers, and for some reason-everyone was there, just-hanging out. Harry didn’t care to ask why.

As they turned the corner-Harry spotted you and Jane at Gil’s locker-Jane writing on a light blue piece of paper-biting her lip and her ears pink as (y/n) guided her through-whatever it was. Harry shushed Gil, stepping close enough to hear them. “So-maybe a little heart-no no, too much,” Jane muttered, tapping the pen against her lip as she went deep into thought.

You laughed gently, patting her back. Harry realized Jane was wearing that new outfit Evie had made for her-her hair down her back with her bangs styled and accented with a blue headband. “Jane, you’re overthinkin’ it! Just write, I think you’re really cute and nice, would you like to go on a date? I mean it’s Gil, guys a softie.”

Gil smiled from behind Harry, not yet catching up to the situation at hand while Harry was holding back a laugh. Oh~ so the little fairy liked Gil? how cute~! He knew of course-she was always staring at Gil and blushed whenever he talked to her.

Jane just huffed at your suggestion and scribbled something on the paper-folding it into a little heart and sliding it into Gil’s locker-squeaking and running off after she did so. You laughed, turning to catch her over the railing as she covered her red face. “Good job Janey~ now we wait,”

Harry took that as their cue and walked out from the hall, keeping a casual walk as he and Gil went to his locker-Gil did have to pick up something from there anyway-something about a game plan.

Gil opened his locker-Harry could hear Jane squeak and from the corner of his eye he saw you grab her shoulder to keep her from running-the other girls around her encouraging her. Gil caught the note from Jane as it flew out, tilting his head at it. “what’s this?” Gil muttered, unfolding the paper. Harry surpassed the urge to facepalm. He and Gil had watched Jane write on and fold that little paper Gil was holding now.

He loved the guy but damn was Gil daft sometimes.

…well that was new, he never even thought of the word ‘love’ when referring to anyone-except maybe his sisters, he knew he loved them. But to stay that about Gil was a new thing.

Must be the Auradon air.

Harry rested his chin on Gil’s shoulder, reading the note from Jane. A grin grew on his face and he plucked the note from Gil; knowing that even after Jane spelled it out for him(literally) Gil would take a week to understand what Jane was asking. “looks like the wee-fairy has a crush on ye Gilly~ how cute!” and it was, really.

Gil slowly turned pink as he processed Harry’s teasing-snatching the note back and reading it over and over again. “Jane likes me? As in fairy godmother Jane?” Gil asked quietly and Harry nodded, leaning on his locker that sat next to Gil’s “What other Jane is there Gil?” Harry chuckled as a smile grew on Gil’s face, turning to look for Jane.

He spotted her below the balcony, your hand in hers for emotional support as she turned bright red and tried to run-a few other girls stopping her and pushing her towards Gil-giggling as Gil jumped down the stairs and held out the note to her, grinning softly as he asked her if she meant it.

Jane-bright red-nodded, her hands to her chest as Gil’s soft grin turned huge, his whole face brightening. He had always thought Jane was very nice and pretty, and he really liked seeing her smile and laugh.

You slowly backed away as the two talked, bumping into the locker next to Harry as he chuckled at Gil and Jane. “a golden retriever and a bluebird, who would’ve thought?” you joked and Harry’s laugh got louder, but he quickly quieted down as Jane glanced at him. “aye,” Harry hummed, hands in his pocket as he turned to look at you, his eyes locking with yours.

He swallowed as those now familiar butterflies flooded his gut; he forced them down-knowing what was going to happen soon. “They’ll be cute, eh?” Harry said instead, nodding at Gil and Jane. You nodded, crossing your arms as you mirrored his stance. “yeah, she really likes him,” you said quietly, not wanting to embarrass Jane as she and Gil continued to talk-the bright red turning to pink as she nodded at something Gil said. “kept asking if he would like something she did-like her hair or the outfit Evie made her.” Harry hummed slowly with nod-his eyes finding Mal as she stopped at her locker, Jay, Evie, and Carlos behind her.

She was looking behind him though, and he glanced over his shoulder to see Ben, who was watching Gil and Jane with a beaming smile-clearly happy to see the two interacting. Harry heard Jay ask Mal if she was sure about this and Harry perked up, listening in as Jay nodded to the school grounds and said it wasn’t so bad here.

Harry was inclined to agree-but he couldn't let Uma or his sisters down. He swallowed harshly, looking back down at you as you watched Jane and Gil exchange phone numbers, Jane grinning up at you as Gil bounded up the steps-beaming brightly at Harry. “We’re gonna go on a date after the game,” Gil said with a giddy smile and Harry nodded, patting Gil’s back.

“atta boy,” Harry muttered, watching as Jay broke away from Mal and flirted with a group of girls, their hair all spelled by Mal. Harry blinked as you shoved off the locker and went over to Ben, talking quietly. He turned, watching the two of you out of the corner of his eye as he tuned out everything else.

“So how’s the Audrey thing going?” Ben shrugged at your question, grabbing the same folder that Gil had grabbed earlier and sliding it under his arm. “okay, I guess, she won't look at me still, but it’s understandable, I did end a three-year relationship with some flowers and chocolate.”

Ben broke up with the princess? This was news to him. You just hummed, leaning against the locker next to Ben. “Yeah, she came into my room all broken up about it, I think I helped though.“ Ben nodded slowly, glancing around before leaning down to whisper something to you. Harry strained to hear but he maybe only got a syllable or two before you were nodding.

“Sure, just keep it on the down low-you just broke up with Audrey, be weird for you ask out another girl only a week after you got out of a relationship.” Ben laughed, seemingly agreeing. “Yeah-imagine if I broke out in song and dance to ask out Mal after the game, that would be ridiculous.” You snorted, covering your mouth as you bent over in your laughter. “(y/n)? you okay?”

You just nodded, wheezing as Harry’s jaw dropped. Beasty wanted to ask out Mal? Shit maybe they wouldn’t need those stupid cookies after all.

“I’m fine, I’m fine,” you waved off Ben’s concern, regaining your breath and shaking your head. “just-that’ll be really damn funny later-I’ll tell you after, anyways-“ Ben interrupted you with a hand on your shoulder, a  teasing grin on his face. “Remember our deal?”

You frowned at Ben, shaking your head. “if I make a move, you have to too?” you just huffed, pouting a bit as you smacked Ben’s hand off your shoulder. “I never agreed to that-besides, like I said, he’s got a girl back home-I ain’t stepping on her toes.” Ben just smiled with a shake of his head, wheezing as you kicked his ankle. “Shuttt the fuck up beasty boy, and go plan your proposal to the pixie.” With that you turned away from Ben and Harry rushed to look away, making it seem like he was paying attention to his phone instead of your conversation.

‘If I make a move, you have to too’ Did you like someone? Now Harry just felt even worse about spelling you, but maybe if he got the chance to tell Mal Ben was already planning on asking her out-she might abandon this stupid part of the plan.

Honestly he rather just ask you out straight up instead of making you love him, because honestly-you were damn good-looking and his type. Harry felt heat gather in his cheeks at the thought, it was getting harder to deny the growing….feelings he had for you. The butterflies, the way he always seemed to smile when you did, the warmth in his chest every time he saw you-that only expanded when he saw you had a cinnamon roll for him(no he still couldn’t say the damn word), the way his eyes were always drawn to you whenever you entered a room, how your voice reached his ears before anyone else.

He nearly hated himself for it, because all those feelings he felt for you-were ones he felt for Uma. Uma was his ride or die, his best friend since childhood-his first love, he had never told her about his feelings(it was the isle, love was death there), and he had planned to keep them close to his chest-to never tell her as long as they were under the threat of their parents.

He didn’t know how he felt about those feelings, he felt like he was betraying Uma by simply being around you-and yet….fuck you felt…right, like you were made to be by his side. You got along with Gil, you knew how his stupid brain worked, you made him feel…he didn’t even know.

It just felt unfair to himself and Uma to see someone in that light, he knew he had a right to his own heart and feelings but. Fuck.

Harry was thrown out of his thoughts when something was pressed to his chest, he scrambled to catch the plastic baggie Mal had shoved into his hands, glaring at her as she pointed over to you-who was now talking to Jane. “Now,” Mal hissed, her gloomy expression turning bright as she teasingly called out to Ben-leaving Harry no time to tell her Ben’s plan. “Hey, Benny boo~!”

Ben turned to Mal with a smile, while Harry took a deep breath-shared a look with Gil-and walked up to you. “Hi,” Harry said, clearing his throat to get rid of the nervous crack. You turned to him-not noticing the grin from Jane as she went off to sit with a few other girls, most of them having left due to the game being in an hour-wanting to get dressed in the Auradon yellow and blues. “Hey,” you hummed, looking down at the cookie in the plastic bag as he lifted it up.

“Mal made cookies, ye want any?” he didn’t mention how there were only two cookies in the baggie. You just snorted, smirking at him with narrowed eyes. “Mal? Made cookies? And-wants to share them?” you asked, as if it was a joke. Harry laughed, his strained smile turning easy-you were easy to talk to. “Aye, couldn’t believe me eyes when I watched ‘er make em-but she didn’t put anythin’ odd in em…except maybe walnuts,” There we go-tell you the cookies had walnuts in em (even though they didn’t anymore) and you would decline-mission failed and Mal couldn’t get pissy at him for it.

You made a face at the mention of walnuts and Harry laughed again, shaking his head. “She took em out of yer cookies but, walnuts have a tendency ta stick around,” Harry mumbled, not realizing he told you these two cookies he had-didn’t have walnuts. You just made another face-taking the bag from him and examining the cookies.

From behind the two of you, Ben took a cookie from Mal as she guilt-tripped him into it, a proud grin on his face as Mal smirked and looked over her shoulder at her friends-Gil just watching you and Harry.

“So, Mal made these two cookies-for me? Specifically?” you asked, opening the bag and taking a cookie out, flipping it between your hands. Harry nodded, swallowing harshly as you glanced at Mal behind his shoulder-then looked back at him. “I guess? She was in a sharin’ mood an’ I told ‘er ye didn’t like walnuts so she made a few special fer ye,” Harry muttered-technically telling the truth but not revealing the properties of the cookies.

You hummed, breaking the cookie in half and tilting your head at it-before deciding it was safe and taking a bite. Harry stared down at you, Mal watching from over her shoulder as she stopped Ben from singing her name. “yeah-definitely still taste the walnuts.” You muttered, pouting down at the cookie. “They’re still good, just-very much have that wax and water taste.” You swallowed the bite-looking up at Harry at the same time.

Your eyes flashed pink and Harry bit the inside of his lip. Fuck. From how Ben acted-from what Harry could hear while distracted by you-you would start acting all lovey dovey-almost drunk like he supposed-and then you would start singing his name like Ben was Mal’s.

But you didn’t-you just slipped the cookie back into the bag-tossed your bitten piece into the trash-and handed the bag back to Harry. “Next time? No walnuts-that shits gross,” you chuckled, smiling up at him. Harry blinked-but-wait? Shouldn’t it? But your eyes? You checked your phone, clicking your tongue. “I gotta go, Ben asked me to wear Auradon colors for the big game, so-see ya Harry!”

With that-you were gone, and Harry was dumbfounded.

What in the fuck just happened?!

-

“That makes no sense! It should’ve worked-it’s a perfect love spell-it worked on Ben-which means it should’ve worked on (y/n)!” Mal ranted as she flipped through her spell book; Harry sat across from Evie as she finished off a new shirt for Mal. The other boys were at the field-getting ready for the game. Harry sighed, rubbing his face.

Your eyes flashed pink, Mal said that was a sign of the potion taking effect, so it must’ve worked-but then why did you go on as if you didn’t eat a spelled cookie? “Didn’t the book have notes on the love spell failing to work?” Evie said, standing and tapping the edge of the leather-bound book-Mal huffing as she flipped back to the love spell. “I thought it did anyway, swear It.”

Mal just tapped the page, nodding. “yeah, you’re right, must’ve missed it the first time; there are circumstances where the love potion will not work. you will know If the eyes do not flash pink; the spelled is aromantic, the spelled is immune to magic,” Harry snorted, along with Mal and Evie-no shot, no one was immune to magic-it must’ve been one of the other options. Because there was no way you were immune to the spell. “or the spelled is already in love with the user…”

Harry Hook. Error 102.

“I’m sorry?” Harry nearly screeched, snatching the book from Mal and re-reading the notes. No-uhuh-no way-you didn’t-you hadn’t even known him for a week?! There was no way. “She-she must be aro then because…fuck.” Harry grumbled, tossing the book back to Mal as she huffed.

“All right then-she’s either immune to magic-which no one is-or she’s aro-which also means-oh shit wait hold on,” Mal tapped the book again, Harry and Evie leaning over her shoulders to look at the note. “The love spell might also not seem to work, which is when the spelled has strong feelings for the user and therefore-the spell doesn’t change any feelings-but simply intensifies them. So-she might just like you a lot and so that’s why the spell worked-but doesn’t seem like it?” Mal muttered, tapping her finger over her mouth as Harry groaned, walking around the room.

So you were either Aromatic, immune to magic, or already liked him enough to where the spell didn’t seem to take effect. But your eyes flashed! So that meant it did work, so…shit-you liked him-he was the one Ben was talking to you about-the one Ben told you to make a move on.

Shit-shit shit shit. Harry sighed again, rubbing his face. That meant you knew about Uma too, ‘he has a girl back home’, that meant you knew Harry liked someone-Uma-and didn’t want to make a move in case Harry didn’t like you back.

Harry ignored the flurry of warmth and butterflies in his chest.

“Well then, that settles it-we go on with the plan,” Mal said-and Harry realized she had been talking and he had been ignoring her-which was normal. “We don’t even know if it actually worked?” Harry screeched and Mal huffed, glaring at him-tapping the book.

 “It did! Her eyes flashed, right?” Harry nodded “Then it worked! If it hadn’t-her eyes wouldn’t have flashed-Ben’s eyes flashed-it clearly worked on him!? So-we just-go with the flow for (y/n), just-ask her out at some point! Become her boyfriend so we can get that wand-and then! If you want-we can de-spell her and move on with conquering the world~”

Mal cheered, snapping the book shut and making her way out of the room. “Now let’s go, the game starts soon.” Harry let out a long sigh, pressing his hands to his face. Gods, he was going to break Mal’s fucking nose.

-

The field was loud-47 seconds left on the clock and the teams were tied as both schools cheered for their respective teams. Gil, Jay, and Carlos had yet to play-something about keeping them fresh until the last minute(literally it seemed). Harry stood between you and Lonnie; his arms crossed as he stared down at the field. Just in front of the bleachers-the cheerleaders jumped and encouraged the crowd to get even louder and Harry eventually sealed his hands over his ears. If Gil wasn’t playing he would not be here, he told himself this was for Gil and sighed, keeping his hands over his ears as the crowd cheered again.

A hand appeared in his vision; a pair of earplugs being handed to him. He nodded in thanks and you smiled back, showing off the pair you were wearing. Harry’s attention was brought back to the field as Jay stood with Carlos, Gil already running onto the field as two others ran to the benches-effectively switched out for the rest of the game.

Harry gave Gil a thumbs up as he turned back around-looking for Harry. Gil beamed, his grin getting wider as he heard Jane cheering for him and seeing you throw your fists into the air in support-Lonnie doing the same as she cheered. “Go Gil!” Lonnie screamed over the crowd, Gil sliding on his helmet and patting Ben on the back as he joined the huddle.

Soon, Carlos and Jay joined the team and Ben gave a quick rundown of the play. They split off and went into formation-Ben at the front with Carlos and Chad at his sides-Jay standing behind with Gil.

they break from their huddles, this is gonna be a big moment here….aaand the tip-off is ready!

The ref blew the whistle and the ball was in play. Jay dashed forward-knocking the ball into the knight's hands as he threw it to Ben. Carlos knocked over a member of the other team who was trying to rush Ben, laughing and doing a little dance in victory.

The crowd went wild, Harry holding his hands over his ears to get rid of the piercing noise of Lonnie as she shook him and Mal around in her excitement.

Nice little Block by Carlos, and he does a little dancing jig in the opponent’s face! And now Jay gets the ball back-here comes Jay! nice pass to Gil across the kill zone! Jay-hurdling maneuvers at midfield!

Jay flipped across the kill zone-making it to Gil who tossed it back to Jay-who threw it across to Ben. this went back and forth as they ran across the field-Chad and Carlos defended the three as the other team attempted to bulldoze them.

Big block by Chad! Prince Ben moves over wide-gives it back to Jay! He’s in the clear! Shot!

Jay attempted to score-only for the goalie to block it, Jay groaned, kicking the grass as Ben shook it off and guided his team back into formation.

23 seconds left you could cut the tension with a sword! The longball is played into Gil-Gil great jump, great leap! And a great move by Gil!

Harry cheered for Gil, remembering that exact move from Gil years before when he was helping Harry ‘play’ keep away with Jay, some sort of bronze lamp Jay had wanted to steal and so Harry stole it first.

Another player attempted to take the ball from Gil but Gil just ran through them-Chad stumbling over himself-not expecting Gil to just bulldoze the other guy so easily.

Impressive push by Gil! Gil-dishes off to Jay-Jay dishes off to prince Ben! and then Carlos with a big block-he goes down! Jay thought the kill zone picks up Carlos-oh he’s being hammered by dragon fire!

Carlos held up his shield-holding strong as he and Jay ran through the kill zone-being pelted by ‘dragon fire’. Soon they made it across and Ben passed the ball back to Jay-Carlos ran in front of him-holding his shield out and coping their positions from tryouts.

“Jay!” Carlos yelled, and Jay pelted the ball right at him-Carlos angling his shield up and sending the ball into the sky. “go up!” Carlos curled up like a turtle again and Jay leaped off his shield-catching the ball mid-air and passing it to Ben-who faked the goalie out and passed it to Gil-who scored!

And only seconds later-the timer ran out-it was 3-2, the fighting knights of Auradon City winning! The crowd went wild, Gil jumping into the air with his arms up as Ben laughed with him-the team tossing off their protective gear as they celebrated. Jay tossed his arms around Ben and Carlos’ necks, spinning the three of them around in victory before Ben pulled Gil into the mix-the four boys tumbling to the ground as they laughed.

Harry cheered-throwing his fists up as Gil pulled his helmet off and looked for him, beaming with pride. “I did it!” Gil said-but Harry couldn’t hear him from this far-just barely able to read Gil’s lips. Gil’s eyes turned to you and you cheered for him-giving him two thumbs up as Harry clapped. Gil just beamed-throwing his fists up in victory.

Your eyes drew to Ben and saw him practically booking it towards the announcer and you turned to Harry-excusing yourself. “I’ll be right back!” you said over the crowd, Harry stepping back to let you jump down the bleachers; beelining it to Audrey and grabbing her wrist.

“(y/n)? what the-“ Audrey screeched, yelping as you started to tug her off the field “What are you doing?” you just pointed back at Ben with your free hand as you tugged her away from the chaos that was about to go down. “Remember what I said about Ben doing something stupid? I’d rather you not experience it-”

“Give me an M!”

Audrey turned back at Ben’s voice, furrowing her brows as he continued to spell out Mal’s name and Audrey’s face crumbled, tucking into your side as you ran off the field and into the girls locker room, shushing her gently as she sobbed.

“It’s only been a week-not-not even-“ Audrey cried, her face in her hands as you crouched at her feet, rubbing her shoulders. “I know I know, this sucks-it really does” you muttered, letting out a grunt as Audrey slammed into you, sobbing into your shoulder. “like I said-he does a stupid thing-and that stupid thing was asking Mal out publicly at the fucking game. Im sorry I didn’t warn you properly,”

Audrey just cried, and you tugged her hair free of her ponytail, gently scratching her scalp as she hugged you so tight you might never breathe again. You just let her, pulling out your phone to text Chad.

‘Audrey’s sad-Girls locker room’

And you didn’t even wait two minutes before Chad was bursting in, breathing heavily as he took the scene in. “Audrey!” he gasped, pulling her out of your arms and giving her the biggest hug he could manage, Audrey burying herself in his arms. “What happened?! Are you okay? Who do I need to kill?!”

“Ben broke her heart only a week ago and then broke it again today asking Mal out-“ Chad turned red with anger, now furious he had danced with Ben to help him ask Mal out with that stupid song. “Oh he’s gonna get it,” Chad grumbled and you sighed.

“Remember, he’s the high prince-becoming king in two weeks-whatever you do-keep it on the down low.” you muttered, squeezing Audrey’s hand and giving her a smile before you left-heading back over to the tourney field-just as everything was wrapping up and the boys were being hoisted with the trophy in hand, Gil and Jay holding it with giant grins. Gil found you and pointed at the trophy-grinning as you whooped and clapped for him-giving him another thumbs up.

and there they are! Gil and Jay: the most valuable players! How do you like that!

You turned as Harry jumped down to join you on the floor, grinning as Gil gestured to the trophy again. “Well, I think I get sports now,” Harry joked, grinning as you cackled, your head tossing back with the action. “Believe me-this is the most interesting Tourney has been in a while, all thanks to the boys honestly-now-Roar. That’s a fascinating game,” you said with a snort, biting your lip with a smile as Harry snickered.

“Aye, swords and parkour-what’s better than tha’?” Harry said, laughing as Gil and Jay were soaked with some sort of blue drink, running as Gil spotted him and started booking it towards Harry. You laughed as they ran around-Harry protesting loudly since he was wearing a very nice customized denim jacket.

-

Uma watched blankly as her Gil and Mal’s Jay were celebrated by the tourney team. Being called the most valuable players.

It had been a whole week, and now there were her boys-one dressed in Auradon blues and yellows, and the other one standing next to a girl who kept smiling at him. She hardly recognized them, Gil looked so…happy-and Harry looked…he looked happy too.

It felt like they were slipping away. The only comfort were those golden shell bracelets on their wrists, and the dark style Harry was attached too-his hook on his belt loop. She hoped they would be coming back for her soon-she missed them.

She really missed them.

Thanks for the answers, you & spider-jay are the reasons why I created that small blog post about the young titans group; details about that and more are coming soon ;)

1: I think you said this already butt what is something they get extremely jealous of?

2: Chris, Jon, & Kons outfits are based on the original designs from the comics, what new & original outfits would you give them? I can see Chris wearing a purple & black version of Zods outfit since his lightsaber color is purple; the Z on the outfit stands for despair & Chris changes it to his own version of hope instead (in my Headcanon)

3: what’s the duos reaction to undertaker losing his wrestle mania streak? If they dislike Brock lesnar, who would they choose to end undertakers streak?

4: what’s your favorite alternative universes of the duo?

5: based on questions in the past from me & others, how do you come up with them? Is it based on your likes or is it you look at the characters & decide “this” is their character?

6: any “fluffy” headcanons of the duo? Like Chris using his shadow powers to cuddle & hug his brothers or Jake.

Apologies for the delays my friend @pin-crusher2000

That being said…..

1) While extreme jealousy is way too harsh to describe it overall as the two are quite accepting and courteous as much as kids their age can be; Chris would have an absolute tiny issue with Conner being the premier and most popular of the junior Supers between him, himself and Jon. Meanwhile, Jake would have a tiny bit of comprehension issues with the fact that his powers, whether he actually wanted them at first or not, came in much later in his life while Mar’i was basically and almost literally born with hers.

2) Conner: A White T Shirt with a Black and Red S Shield, a new leather trench coat with a red underside and a golden S Shield on the back, black pants with a two belts and finally brown workman’s boots. Also, he can keep his trademark shades

Chris: (Don’t get me wrong, your idea sounds great in an off itself. Major kudos. Here’s just my idea for a custom suit) A Light Purple and bright Blue Shirt sleeved shirt with gold trimmings around the collar and sleeve holes, at the center of it a Blue and Yellow version of S Shield only the outer part of it modified to resemble a dragon akin to his canon logo, a yellow cape with a blue underside, a light purple and blue pair of pants coupled with a gold belt plus golden boots which have dark blue soles and his S logo on them, and of course his gold headband.

Jon: A Long sleeved shirt that follows the pattern closely to his canonical suit only it’s an actual shirt and not a sweatshirt, a red cape with a blue underside, dark red fingerless gloves, blue pants with yellow trimmings around the belt area and pockets, and finally some extra high top Converse sneakers.

3) Well…..very similar if anything to that guy from that very Mania, the ‘Just Say Yes’ shirt fella. Once they’re able to actually comprehend their thoughts and emotions for their opinions….they both, while liking Lesnar enough as a performer, agree that it really should’ve been Cena or even better Cesaro who should’ve broke the Streak. And if there had been an older talent given those honors, they could probably vouched instead for Sting or even Goldberg to do it.

4) So far, there are some examples that I can think off the top of my head.

Firstly, there’s what @spider-jaysart and I formulated together based on her ideas for an AU featuring gothic monsters and creatures. Here Chris is a ghost while Jake is a vampire. We call it the ‘Dark Monster Adventure Universe’

One other would be based on Pacific Rim, a movie in which alien kaiju invading the Earth are actively fought back by humanity constructing gigantic Mechas that are piloted by two people who are bound and linked together by their thoughts and feelings for each other, platonic, familial or whichever. The better the pilots bond, the better they fight. In a Pacific Rim AU, it’s a no capes type, but Chris and Jake do pilot one of these mechs, a Jarger, together.

Finally and probably cliches for an comic fan but why not; an AU where Chris is firmly Lor Zod and not only aided his father to take over the Earth and terraform it as a New Krypton with the House of Zod at the helm but also the ruling house makes an alliance of sorts with the Earth based Court of Owls, offering their services for assassinating any human politicians and challengers to the Zods’ rule in exchange for that House to allow them to operate under their protection and with access to Kryptonian tech. It’s through the Court we meet up with their version of Jake as the entirety of the Grayson family are made part of the Owls. Kory and Mar’i are ambassadors of sorts to other alien races that comes across Earth while Dick is firmly in command of the Court’s Talons. Jake would be among the Talons, already having the electrum working in his bloodstream as for Tamaraneans, hybrid or purebred, has a tendency to activate immediately whether the person is still actually alive or undead. Jake in particular serves as Lor’s personal bodyguard, their own adventures usually centering on taking down any rival supervillains or alien warlords who wish to upset this status quo

Sooooo…ironically like that Sinister Sons book in a way….hopefully this is would be better than that one lol

5) I base the characterizations and interactions with these characters with what hopefully is a healthy blend of both their canonical appearances and personalities and admittedly also some of my own interests and tastes influencing them as well. If only really to fill in the gaps their canonical depictions otherwise left out or weren’t explored as much. For instance, given we mainly saw Chris as a six year old and later a teenager, how would a twelve year old version of him who adapted fully to life on Earth would be like or how would Jake’s behavior be like if he not only grew up in a world where his Dad didn’t use a device from Apokolips to end an all out war between metahumans, didn’t follow it up with being the face of an authoritarian regime that makes being meta human illegal and also didn’t have Kory leave the family to establish a resistance force against said regime. All that plus having an older sister.

Yeah as one can tell, wish fulfillment with these guys is a thing for me at least. Though I try my best being consistent with their characterizations within canonical depictions and even in this very AU itself. Keyword try though, I’m sure there’s times I messed it up. I’ll be more than happy if someone points them out. No problem

6)

- When asleep, Jake is probably the second biggest cuddle bug of the entire family, only surpassed by his Mother. It’s almost completely involuntary and an act of pure instinct when it happens as it can be in nearly any place that’s cozy and safe, including but not limited to the couch and his bedroom. It especially kicks in if it’s next to family members but none of them mind it at all. It’s warms their mood up and it literally also warms them up as like with other Tamaraneans, Jake has a pretty warm body temperature even when he’s not directly cuddling anyone

- Also yes, Chris’ shadow constructs can be used to hug those closest to him, especially if they feel down but politely request for their personal space. Shadow constructs though don’t count as breaking that personal space so they allow it.

- Finally, the Duo regularly on some days if the time is right and doable, can visit local children’s hospitals and cancer wards throughout both Bludhaven and Metropolis. They’d spend a good amount of time talking to the many patients there, offering comfort to those who are scared and fearful of their illnesses and injuries, play around the place with those who want to do so whether the doctors are okay with it or not, taking small photos with those patients and their families, and generally just be an uplifting presence for the patients, a lot of them being around their age range or younger.

Lion Jay and Holly but as Mothpool kits! I really like this Au... Plus Leafpool and Mothwing. Going to talk abt some design stuff under the image. These designs are first drafts so they'll probably change in the future

Leafpool- Fawn and Cream torbie. Tried to add a lot of leaf shapes to her design but overall pretty straightforward. Ik she has yellow eyes but I always thought she had green?? So I gave her green. Idk.

Mothwing- Golden colorpoint with spotted tabby markings. Is this possible??? I don't care it looks nice. Moth shaped face and tail with antenna brows. She's very sturdy.

Lionblaze- Flame point with tabby markings. When I was making the three I was kind of toying with the possibility of changing their powers up a bit? Lionblaze has super strength but no invulnerability and being reckless in battle has lead to him getting pretty badly beat up. I'm not sure what the story consequences of this would be though. I was going to give all the three a chest star but I forgor. I'll have to change that when I tweak their designs in the future.

Jayfeather- Mink point with tabby markings, he's based on a stellar's jay instead of a blue jay like i usually see his designs get based off. I like it when he has eye markings on his body so I added that too. If I was going to change his powers I would probably limit it to either his emotion reading or dream walking? I'm not sure which though. Also he would probably be called Jaywing not jayfeather since he's not named after crowfeather in this AU.

Hollyleaf- Black tabby. Yes holly is a tiger clone in this au sorry. She's the most cryptid of her siblings. Holly should be allowed to have a power as a treat, maybe prophecy/visions?

[the-sleepiest-melon]

okay i lied i'm gonna say two things about watching and dreaming before going to bed

i love the little sendoff to flapjack in the credits! it was really well done. hunter getting a new blue jay palisman, but still taking the time to stand at flapjack's grave. showing the jay is not a replacement for flapjack, but someone new that hunter is ready to love. flapjack is gone, but that does not mean he can not find it in him to love again, while still remembering his old friend. beautiful stuff.

belos's last scene gave me mega undertale vibes. i was legit expecting the fight and mercy options to pop up. but what they did was crazy. luz just.... solemnly looking away. refusing to help or give him another chance. you can tell in her body language she's screaming at herself to do something. whether that be finish him off, or save him. but in the end she does... nothing. and its hard for me to tell whether this was an intentional decision on her part, or if she genuinely just froze in that moment. but its really beautiful either way. her stepping way and staying away. she's done.

and final secret third thing, but her telling the collector he did good trying to be nice to belos was so so so beautiful. like, objectively, that was a stupid thing to do. but he's just a kid, and he's just learning about kindness and is now faced with world ending stakes. he's trying. he's just trying to be good. he wants to be good. that's like. the perfect antithesis to belos.

the collector was born with everything and choose to be kind. belos was born with nothing (human so no magic, lil orphan boy in ye olde times) and choose to be cruel. showing in some ways, we are not the circumstances of our birth. we choose to rise above and be better. a person is not fundamentally evil because they never struggled. a person is not fundamentally good just because they have struggled. its a choice to rise above and do better, as it is a choice to perpetuate a cycle of hate and destruction.

and papa titan's design is banger. the fucking glyph sweatpants??? she's so cool.

Spelled (Carlos de Vil x Sanderson Daughter) Descendants 2- Ch. 1: Letting Go

It’s been 2 months since I’ve left Auradon Prep. Part of me says it’s saddening to be left alone with 2 cats in the middle of the woods. But on the other hand it’s been so liberating! I’ve finally mastered the difficult draughts and elixirs in mother’s spellbook, as well as being able to move objects with my mind.

The empathy path between me and Carlos has helped keep me updated on how things are back at school, letting me know that my true love has been feeling content and happy. Which is… nice? Is it selfish of me to be jealous that Carlos is doing fine without me? Does he miss me as much as I miss him?

“Magica! I have returned!”

I keep stirring my moonlight elixir and pay the black cat little attention. “Greetings, Binx. Sorry if I’m a bit vague but I’m feeling dragged down today. Did you bring the ginger root I require?”

He hops up on a nearby stack of books. “Um… actually I brought something better-”

“Knock knock, trixie!”

My jaw drops. “No!” I open the door to find the 4 VKs standing on my doorstep and a wide grin sets on my face. “Goodness gracious! Hey, guys! Come on in!”

They’re just as I remember them! It seems longer than 2 months since I’ve seen them, and in the short time I can already see they’ve changed a bit. Most noticeable is that Carlos has grown his hair out a bit.

Evie looks ecstatic as she examines my newly-colored hair. “I must say, your new look is stunning! Why purple?”

“Yeah, well… I kinda got inspiration from Mal. This year purple is the new pink!”

They all give me one big hug and then start taking a look around my small dwelling.

“Wow. You’ve really gotten hooked on this witch stuff,” Jay gawks when he sees my overflowing shelves of books and potion vials. “Hey Binx- think fast!” He tosses the black cat a ball of twine, which Binx bats away at like a madman- er, madcat.

“Sorry I didn’t tidy up, but in my defense it isn’t often I get visitors. Once in a while FG drops by to see how I’m doing, but other than that the only conversation I get is with Binx.”

“That sounds lonely,” Carlos frowns.

I shrug. “It took some getting used to but I actually enjoy it. So, why the pop-in?”

“We wanted to stop by to invite you to Ben and my Cotillion next week,” Mal says as she examines my herbs. Meanwhile Evie keeps taking sneak peaks in my closet and mentally judging the wrinkled clothes.

“Is that… like a dance or something? Also yes, Evie, I know my clothes aren’t the best. But when you live in the woods you lower your expectations!”

She pouts and crosses her arms. “Fine. But when you come to cotillion I’m making you a proper gown!”

I frown. “Who says I’m going?”

“We do, because we miss you!” Carlos pulls me in for a hug and my heart does a flip.

“Aw, you’re too kind, Freckles. Oh! Evie, how’s the fashion business going?”

The blue-haired VK’s eyes light up. “I’m already booked with dress orders! Doug’s been helping me set up a real designer business!”

Ooh, I bet Doug’s loved that! I really hope they stay together.

“So what should I do for Cotillion? I’m a weird scary witch, remember? I haven’t spent 2 months alone in the woods for nothing!”

“You’ll be an honorary guest on behalf of Ben and me.” Mal takes my hand and gives me a stern look. “If people have a problem with that, they take it up with us.”

“We actually came here for another reason…” Jay eyes Mal, who snickers.

“We need your help to brew a catastrophe draught for a school prank. I’ve got a spell from my book that’ll heighten its power, then we’re-”

“We’re going to dip some apples in it and give them to the other students!” Jay laughs. “It’s gonna be hilarious!”

Evie smiles. “And we know your mom’s spell book would have the best recipe, since your aunt’s into crazy potions and all.”

My mouth twists into a lopsided grin. “Gonna make ‘em all dance, huh? Sounds familiar.”

Carlos nudges me playfully. “Thought we’d take a page out of your book. So will ya help us out?”

I look around at the VKs’ hopeful faces and smirk. “And waste a moment to make Audrey look like a complete fool? Definitely!”

“Um, actually she’s been away visiting family for summer vacation.”

I rethink. “Then we’ll make Chad look like a complete fool! Let’s get started.”

After emptying my moonlight elixir I start scurrying around and preparing the proper ingredients for the catastrophe draught while the others pull out a bag of apples and find the spell in Mal’s book.

“Think FG will suspect I’m involved?”

Jay shakes his head and keeps playing catch with Binx. “Nah. You’re all she talks about in goodness class. Always going on about how ‘evil triumphs over good!’ and your whole spiel about ‘don’t let your heritage define your future.’ All that nice stuff.” 

“Let’s give Auradon a taste of evil…” Mal says smugly as she tosses some apples into my cauldron.

“Well, this’ll do the trick! With my mom’s magic brew and your spellbook bewitchment this’ll turn the whole school into a gang of hooligans! I wish I could see it.”

Out of the corner of my eye I see Jay give Carlos a nudge.

“You could come back, you know.” The freckled VK gets closer and I try to ignore my racing heartbeat. Don’t get your hopes up, Magica.

I keep stirring the draught and shake my head. “I’m sorry, Carlos. But it’s best if I stay in hiding until I can make my appearance at the cotillion.”

By now the brew starts glowing an aqua green and is ready for Mal’s spell.

“Wicked ways beneath the skin, let all who taste it now join in!”

We pluck the apples from the draught and they turn a bright red, causing Mal to nod in approval.

“Perfect.” She gathers them into a bag and turns to head off for the door, motioning for the others to follow.

“You’ll be at cotillion, right?” Evie asks in a hopeful voice.

At first I’m against it, but the thought of spending another two months alone here makes me cave.

“Oh, alright! Count me in!”

Jay gives me a thumbs-up and Carlos tugs me in for one last hug.

“See you soon, trixie!”

“Maybe try to stop by before cotillion?” Carlos asks after planting a quick kiss on my lips.

My smile falters but I keep a steady head. “I… might pop in for a visit.”

The VKs give a wave before shutting the door and leaving me with a very worn-out Binx.

“Had fun? You could have informed me you were bringing guests, Binx.”

“And spoil that face you had when you opened the door? Never!”

I finish cleaning up my workstation and sweep the dirt from the floor outside. “It’s just that I’d like more of a warning. There’s some magic I’ve learned that I’m not exactly fond of sharing at the moment.”

The truth is, I’ve been practicing more magic from mother’s book than I’ve let on to Fairy Godmother. She sent some approved spellbooks and potion manuals, but doesn’t know about my spellbook. I’ve found and used many useful spells, none of the dark ones. Just enough knowledge to know when to draw the line. In doing so, my usual pink magic has turned into a deep purple. I feel that if I reveal just how much I’ve read into then I’ll be grounded to learning only pocket spells again. I am no mere child to be monitored- I am a Sanderson witch.

Carlos’ POV

We get back to school and head off to start handing out the bewitched apples. I find Dude waiting for me in the gardens with an expectant look on his face.

“Sorry, bud. She’s not coming. At least for now.” 

It really tore me up when I had to leave Magica alone again, but at least this time I have an idea of when I’ll see her again.

Before I pass around my helping of apples, Jay nudges me over to a corner.

“Real quick before the fun begins, I gotta say something about trixie. Sorry to say this Carlos, but you might wanna start thinking about finding another girlfriend? One who’s… actually around?”

He thinks I- what?

My jaw drops. “How can you say that? You know I love her, Carlos! Magica’s one of the only people I completely trust. Just ask Dude!”

My canine friend joins my side and gives a loud bark as he hops up and down at the sound of Magica’s name.

But Jay’s still looking doubtful. “She says she wants to be left alone. I’d say that’s a fair turning point for any relationship you guys have.”

She- she- But she only wanted to be alone because she thought she was dangerous! Because she doesn’t like people… Isolation, being excluded… Is that a sign that she doesn’t want to be in my life? After all, every time I’ve asked her to hang out with us she’s refused and acted distant. If that’s truly what she wants…

“But you know how much she’s had to go through! If I consider this then it’ll tear her apart.”

Jay takes out an apple and tosses it between his hands. “I know, I know. But some good things aren’t meant to be. She’d say something if she wanted to be with you. Sometimes you need to let things go.”

He goes off to start spreading mischief and leaves me with Dude, who lets out a whine.

“I know, buddy. I miss her too.”

Maybe it is time to start letting things go...

Ashes of Memory trailer observations

y'all when i saw the poster for this update with Frederick instead of Norton and heard that the featured Hunter was gonna be BQ instead of Nightmare i was SO disappointed BUT this trailer laid my fears to rest and now i'm SUPER excited for this update because as all my fellow detectives doubtlessly do, i have questions. i also have a few points towards my theory that this (Alice's version of events) is some kind of parallel universe, ALTHOUGH the other theory i have is that "Orpheus"' version is somehow altered due to his memory loss issues and that Alice's version is the correct one.

first off, we have ANOTHER variant of the DeRoss family portrait, making this the fifth variant that i'm aware of to date.

remember from The Journalist's trailer that she has one variant of this portrait in her possession - it's going to be interesting hearing why it's so different.

i'll spare you another rant on the button eyes being significant somehow but also of note is that in the version that Alice has on her nightstand, it shows the same parents along with herself as a little girl, while obviously the version she finds in the Manor shows the parents with Orpheus and two other people. this leads me to another difference i find intriguing, and that is the comparison to the version of this portrait that The Novelist found in his memory of his Game. this one shows himself as a child along with his parents and Mr. and Mrs. Perez, the forest rangers. their faces are obscured along with that of young "Orpheus". now in the newest variant of this portrait, we get to see their faces, though they are now dressed as a farmer and a maid. i'm not sure if this indicates that the individuals pictured here are not the Perezes, or that in this version the Perez family had different roles in the Manor (if so, it will be fascinating to see whether their son did as well).

i thought this bird might be a nightingale which would have been rather poignant but it's not :/ unless it's a fantasy variant for this universe or something. i wanted to identify it to see if it was of some other significance, but the shot is just too blurry to get a positive ID. my closest guesses based off of that crest, the distinct black collar, and the beige to cream underside would be a Crested Tit (although - and forgive my American-ness here for a sec - the silhouette makes it look WAY more like our Blue Jays here in North America, although i doubt a Chinese design team would pick an American bird rather than a Eurasian species).

ON TO THE MOST INTERESTING PART. yes i will be bringing up my argument that Norton isn't a killer for the umpteenth time, and this time i have some damn good evidence. despite the trailer being REAL keen on making it look like he's pursuing the entomologist who's running for her life, further inspection shows that something very different is going on here. firstly, he's not looking ahead of him as if pursuing someone. he's looking behind him, as though he's the one being pursued.

slowing the clip down confirms this. you can also see that his expression looks worried, and it's clear why - he is in fact being pursued, and attacked, by a flock of ravens crows*. i don't think it's too big a leap to infer that he's actually being hunted by Nightmare.

which i feel is confirmed by the subsequent (almost immediately so) appearance of The Man Himself in this incredibly sickass shot

and another metaphorical shot of the moth (having been used as an allegory for Alice herself in the previous in-game event) being destroyed by the raven crow* during Bird DILF's epic entrance.

*i am fully aware they're supposed to be ravens but they're so petite they look much more like crows (ravens are overall much beefier-looking than crows).

so i guess my hopes for this update at this point are 1) more Norton and possibly Bane content, 2) clarification on the whole Perez family and their relationship to the DeRoss family, and 3) Norton's name being cleared once and for all. i also will be appreciating any and all Nightmare content UwU

Comparing Descendants and TWST

Cause why not?

Btw, I've only seen the movie with Uma, but I've seen parts of the others so this should be fine. I'm judging off of looks anyway.

I'm doing if they look alike, who's better looking, and who looks closest to the character they are based off of (or children of, I guess).

Btw, Ima put a cutoff here cause this post is long af.

No. They look nothing alike. I prefer Malleus anyway cause he's actually scarier looking. Malleus also looks closer to Maleficent.

If Vil's hair was blue, I would say maybe, but this is a no. Evie looks badass, but Vil is hotter so I gotta prefer him, sorry Evie. (She was my favorite character in the movie so this is not favoritism because I play TWST) I gotta admit, neither of them look like the Evil Queen, but if you combined them, maybe?

Yeah, actually. They do look pretty alike. However, Jamil just looks better. (Maybe cause he has more decoration? Idk) Jamil has a more Jafar vibe, which I guess is supposed to be the case since Jay is just supposed to be his son but whatev. Good job on both.

If Carlos just had a little more black in his hair, I would go with they look pretty much the same, but he doesn't so it's a maybe. Also, yet again because of hair, I gotta say Crewel looks better for character design. Crewel also does better for a Cruella stand in. (This just seems unfair for a competition now that I look at it)

They look nothing alike. And I gotta say, sorry SIlver, Audrey has better character design. She also looks a lot closer to Aurora. Silver's really only like Aurora in personality and backstory though so...

Uma is so freaking hot. I love her. Sorry Azul. Also, they look nothing alike. I do prefer Uma (yes this is biased because she's hot, however I don't simp because she's underage) so... sorry Azul. However, Azul has grey hair and that's his only selling point in looking like Ursula.

OH MY GOD THEY'RE BOTH HOT. Anyways, they do look pretty alike, and I really like both of their designs, but I gotta give it to Celia. She looks great, but they both look pretty close to The Shadow Man so... it's a tie.

I had trouble getting a picture of Red. Anyways, these two actually look a lot alike, and I really like both of their designs. They also both look like good stand ins for the Queen of Hearts, so this is a tie as well.

You wound me Freddie. You look awful. Nothing alike and Mr. Sam takes the cake for all three of the challenges. Freddie's design is such an oof.

That was a lot. but yeah. Also not very fair for Descendants, but whatever. Here's the score I guess.

Lookalike: 3/8

Best character design: 5 for Descendants, 7 for Twisted

Closest to character: 4 for Descendants, 7 for Twisted

There you go. This was a stupid post.
