#Project Cythraul AU💉

[kinderartifact4]

Came up with an AU fic idea, I’m gonna try to power through it!

Edit: It’s Burromuerto family centric if that matters to anyone. Spoiler, with the nature of the AU, it is not happy.

In this post, I present lists of songs I associate with certain Total Drama AUs, most of which are mine. I have very little context posted about my AUs (pretty much none for one of them!), but the songs do somewhat capture the vibes.

I’m just screenshotting my notes because I like how it’s formatted there so much more than how I could get it formatted here (why can’t we underline on tumblr)

Any thoughts/commentary would be greatly appreciated. Any questions are welcomed and encouraged.

Fun Fact(s) about my Project Cythraul AU!

The concept itself, I quickly whipped up for my group roleplay friends on Wattpad back in 2019.

“Cythraul” is Welsh for devil, because of course it is; I was 14 and didn’t know how else to say that “what’s happening is inherently evil”, so I put the word demon into google translate and Cythraul had a better ring to it than any of the other options.

I’ve done a lot of revamping of the concept since then, while still keeping the general idea, so now it’s less “intentionally evil” and more of “started out as a way to help humanity but derailed a bit”. So, realistically the project name should be changed, but Cythraul just sounds so good to me.

It was honestly supposed to be a one off thing, but I got attached to the concept and started applying it to fandoms I was in, but as of right now Total Drama is the only one I’ve turned into a whole thing and plan on sharing.

There’s a grand total of one person who knows the whole current plot to this AU, not including myself. Trust me there’s actually a lot of information I just don’t have any of it posted aside from a brief bullet point description on my AU Masterlist.

I will absolutely post a proper summery one day, but I needed to share this bit now because I am just realizing how proud I am of this concept and how much it’s improved.

Made an image so I don’t forget a key detail about my TD “Project Cythraul” AU, decided to share it. Blaineley is squiggled out because she’s not really important to the AU.

A list of my Total Drama AUs because I love them all wholeheartedly, feel free to ask questions about any of them.

Animal Mutant AU 🐾🧬

+this AU was just an excuse to make Noah an owl person

+Noah’s a vampire

+Alejandro’s a werewolf

+Cody’s just there

+made this AU for fun

-

-

Magic AU ✨

+Magical creatures living amongst humans type thing, but it’s my takes on them

+Like we got merfolk, satyrs, angels, demons, elves, harpies, that kinda thing

+It’s like an assimilated society thing, they’re mostly at peace with each other with some mild species specific discrimination mostly courtesy of humans

+mild feels like an understatement

+everything’s got so much lore

+and of course, we got ✨magic✨

+there is a war that happens later on in the AU, so there’s that too

Drider! Duncan Dunoah AU🕷

+Sort of a high school AU? Most of them go the same school since a lot are kept human for this)

+Just a clingy drider with abandonment issues and his human bf who doesn’t actually understand how he got here

+definitely more of a self indulgent AU

+I don’t remember why I made this AU but now I can’t get rid of it

-

-

Godly Patron AU ✨🙏✨

+Some of the cast each has a god that has taken a liking to them

+they’re my take on gods because I like having full creativity, so none of the ones people usually know about are here(like greek or norse gods)

+Alejandro is not having a good time

+Noah has the oldest god

+Alejandro’s got a lot more lore than he was originally going to have

+Made this AU because I wanted Cody to have a proper parental figure, then it kinda turned into this along the way

+Aleheather got that “Doomed Love” trope going on

Trollhunter Cody AU🧌🗡

+I just thought it’d be fun

+Cody would be the type of guy to say “crispy” wouldn’t he

The only post I have

Project Cythraul AU💉

+The whole concept is old, like 2019 old, but it has since then been revamped

+The entire WT cast goes missing like halfway through Egypt, with almost no trace other than what’s on the plane and something left in the sand

+They stay missing for 2 or 3 years before one of them finally shows up again with amnesia

+Main premise of the AU is a secret facility that specializes in DNA manipulation

-

-

Hidden Magic AU 😶‍🌫️✨

+AU is otherwise known as “A group of immortals build a camp in a magic pocket dimensional forest for some reason and end up with a bunch of kids”

+there are other residents but the amount of children that show up there is concerning

+humans are quite irrelevant here, we don’t see them much

+the lore for most of the characters is a bit dark, but hey

Nivi AU 👽

+This AU was an excuse to give Cody a best friend, and that friend is my OC Nivi!

+Nothing really changes, even though she’s in World Tour

+This AU has since evolved into “Alejandro and his gaggle of idiots™”, ie. Alejandro, Nivi, Cody, Duncan, and Lexi(OC/Nivi’s girlfriend) all share an apartment. It’s an interesting concept.

+I think of this AU often

+During Island and Action, people don’t really think Nivi exists because “Cody couldn’t possibly have actual friends outside the show!”

+This makes Nivi feel like some kind of cryptid and she loves it.

“What If?” Mutant AU ☣️

+A small AU I came up with, sort of a “What if?” AU. The what if being “What if other people came into contact with toxic waste?”

+The people who are mutated are the same as canon (Dakota, that one intern, Ezekiel had some toxic waste exposure, it’s just more obvious here).

+Additional mutant individuals include Noah, Duncan, Alejandro, and maybe a couple others but I’m not sure.

+The mutant individuals can’t go back to their families, they don’t want them to see them like this anyways, so Chris keeps them on Pahkitew Island (in the facility for the duration of that season).

+Alejandro is lost at sea for a bit before they finally catch him and put him with the others

ToA IOTS AU 🔪

+Technically still a TD AU since the AU it’s based off is TD. Idk I’m not making a separate post for my ToA AUs there’s too few of them for that. And this is the only one I’m sharing probably.

-

-

Interdimensional Remnant AU🔚

+Area 51, something went wrong, everything was destroyed. The base, the earth, the galaxy, the universe, everything.

+The gods tried to stop it in time, remove the source. When they realized it was too late, they instead grabbed the thing closest to it.

+Alejandro Burromuerto is the only remaining piece of a dead dimension, and the gods blame him for its destruction.

+Came up with this AU while listening to a song AXOLOTL by bumr, I do love the concept, great angst potential.

+Technically a branch off of the Godly Patron AU in the sense that the gods do exist.

-

-

Changeling Alejandro AU 👹🧌

+Branch-off of the Trollhunter Cody AU

+Instead of being a wizard, Alejandro is instead replaced by a changeling when he was around 1 year old

+José saw him get snatched, nobody believed him because he was 3 and it was “probably a nightmare”

+José is not the villain for once, he has a very valid reason to hate Alejandro

+The AU gets real angsty post eternal night

[kinderartifact4]

Some TD AU dialogue snippets. Because it’ll be a while before I have something properly worthwhile to post and I have enough of these to share them.

(👽)

“Why me?”

“Because I feel significantly less bad about waking you up than I do anybody else.”

“… That’s.. fair, I guess.”

“So can you come pick us up?”

“Yeah, sure, just give me a minute… Where are you guys?”

-

(✨🙏✨)

“No, no you don’t understand! He is a ticking time bomb with no clear time. He could explode at any moment and if you are in his vicinity when he does he will take you with him. I am advising you to stay well away from him. Am I clear?”

-

(😶‍🌫️✨)

“Why is he always the one getting punished for your mistakes?”

-

(✨🙏✨)

“Why is every god we know telling us to stay away from you? What are they so afraid of?”

-

(💉)

“Now, can you tell me your name?”

“It’s… N-… No.”

“Ok… what’s the last thing you remember?”

“I don’t know…”
