If I wanna adapt 98462 from The Railway Series, is naming him Andrew okay? Since stealing Alfred would get me screwed.
Using Alfred isn't a bad thing, I'm just a paranoid little silly. But if you'd like to use 98462, that should be a-okay.

Idk if this'll help ease your nerves, but Alfred Is considered a public domain character and (I think idk) has been since his creator made him, it'd be unlikely for the creator to go on a sueing spree because that'd be A LOT of people to sue, not to mention if he even survives jail, bc let be honest, once those cellmates find out what he's in for, or what his charges are, they're gonna kill him so
(again I hope this helped but yeah also I find previous annon really insensitive considering their first worry was about Alfred and not the victims involved which one being a 2 yr old)
I was honestly a little more concerned about you and not myself since I don't nearly have as much art about Alfred as you do. And your point about there being a lot of people to sue is what I'm worried about, what codones "public domain" in the eyes of the law is kinda iffy as I've been learning about in the business half of my uni, so the guy has a lot of people to get a lot of money from if he so wishes. The jail thing is also completely right, but it also depends on what country and what jail he goes to. Some prisons have those types of inmates separate from each other because they're considered high targets. And idk if I read the last ask wrong but I don't think they were concerned about Alfred? I'm the one whose letting that paranoia and doom thoughts be my first thoughts. I got the sense of it being like a "justice" to steal their character from them as a form of revenge? That was the sense I got from it anyway. I was the one concerned about the legalities of Alfred because of how it might effect some artists on here if he did decide to sue. As for the victims..... My heart goes to the families, and especially those poor babies. The whole situation is something I'm not gonna talk about to much on after this because it brings back a horrid monster into conversation who doesn't deserve the effort on my keyboard. It makes me glad to know that he might have less of a leg to stand on, but I'm not concerned about myself as I am you and others on this sight. Hope ur doing okay with this revelation yourself Pro, I hope it doesn't taint Alfred in any way for you.

I get these photos I did of Kuromi and Badtz-Maru watching FIREBOX is off-topic, but I heard that Skarloey123 is arrested for being a child predator, so, feel free to steal Alfred from this sicko if ya wanna.



I think I heard about this from another YouTube channel, Carson's Video Workshop. I don't think I've personally seen anything to do with this creator since his name doesn't stick out, but apparently he was a big deal in the TTTE community? And from what I understand from what you're telling me is that he's apparently the creator of Alfred? As much as the idea of justice is appealing to steal something from a criminal we have to be realistic about it, just because he's a criminal doesn't mean he doesn't have rights. He still owns the copyright to that character and if he wanted to he could go on a sue-happy craze for anyone whose ever used Alfred in their works without his permission. As much as Alfred feels more like a community-made character, like Timothy the Ghost Engine, he is still owned by a real person who can sue you. So if people are going to take Alfred and use him in their projects going forward, especially the popular channels/blogs, I'd implore you to be careful and be prepared to set up a case for yourself. I know this is like going nuclear, and maybe I'm just paranoid, but I don't know the guy, and if he was capable of doing this in the first place, I wouldn't put it past him to sue people as a bit of revenge on the Thomas community. Here are some pointers I've learned that could help- > Alfred's basis is a LNER B12, designed by S. D. Holden. > The locomotive's copyright would be expired by this point and since the sicko didn't design the irl locomotive to begin with he can't go after anyone for staying that the Alfred they've designed is a B12. > What he can potentially sue you for is the colour, name and face design on the character. He could argue against a judge that if the design you've given the Alfred you've drawn is green and shares the same name that's grounds for suing. > For those of you who have just drawn human Alfreds and such, you should be fine since he wouldn't have any grounds to compare your human character to a loco. I could absolutely be paranoid and feel free to ingnor this if you think I am, but I just want this community to be safe, and since most of us are ether broke hobbyists or minors its good to have your ass covered just in case.

Heyoo hope you're doing great!
What are some headcanons of your Hiro? :>
Thank you, I am! Headcanons for Hiro huh? Well... I've got more stated facts that I haven't aired about Hiro more than I do headcanons because he's not one of the characters I tend to think about much. No shade to Hiro, amazing character! He's just not one of my favourites compared to Gordon. With that being said, what I have stated for Hiro is quite dark. I'm going to put trigger warnings in the tags and a keep reading line under this paragraph. If anyone clicks on it, they've chosen to forgo the warnings and are reading at their own discretion; remember the back button on your browser exists if you'd like to abort. Without further ado, here we go-
Hiro is from a time in Japan around the taishō period when Japan started to become westernised, unfortunately, this brought the ideology about mythos with them.
Prior to this period, Japanese mythos lived in unity with humans, often sharing communities and helping the other out like neighbours. Which is what Hiro did.
Since Hiro is a kirin, he and his wife often carted heavy wagon trains around communities, which was anything from goods, to materials, to more sensitive cargo like the dead if a body needed escorting.
Because of this and his status as being half-dragon, Hiro was greatly respected, and were overjoyed when Hiro and his wife announced that they were having a child, that being Kenji.
But then the westerners came, this particular group was paid for rounding up beneficial mythos, Hiro being a horse and a dragon fit that criteria to perfectly.
Since the town Hiro resided in didn't condone of his and his family's capture, they did all they could to protect the three kirin down to creating a hidden home in the mountains.
But alas, it wasn't enough as the group turned up the intensity by burning portions of the town to smoke the family out. Hiro's wife and son escaped unharmed to the hidden home but Hiro himself was captured.
The next morning, Hiro was hauled through the main road of town, body bound in magical chains and stripped of his clothes. A few braver soldiers of the town tried to attack the westerners to free Hiro, but they were shot down either by magic or guns.
Thus, after Hiro's capture and humiliation, he was shipped off to his buyer on the island of Sodor.
Once Hiro landed on British soil, it was obvious he wasn't happy. He didn't know if his wife and son were okay by this point and he didn't know the difference between the humans that captured him vs the ones of the island he was brought to.
Sir Bertrum Topham Hatt and his son Charles were there to see Hiro be brought off the ship, hoping to make introductions and welcome him since they didn't know the events of his capture by this point.
When the muzzle on Hiro's mouth was removed so he could speak, the first thing Hiro did was unintentionally create his first spell of English magic by breathing a jetason of fire at the father and son.
The two were burnt down to their skeletons, but because of their immortality they just had to suffer the inconvenience of regrowing their organs and flesh for the next few hours. After that though, it was clear that Hiro was not a happy dragon horse. So he was muzzled again until they could get him comfortable.
The first English mythic that Hiro met was Glynn, the two of them needing to share the stables at Tidmouth at the time. It didn't take long for ether of them to realise that they couldn't understand each other.
So with Glynn's suspicions and recommendation, the Hatts launched an investigation into Hiro's origins and were not happy with what they found.
They had been expecting a trained mythic of a horse and dragon hybrid, one that had been born into the working-class life and knew how to speak English, not a "taken out of the wild" mythic.
They were especially horrified to find out the living conditions Hiro was in before arriving, how he was loved and wanted in his community, and that they had assisted in severing him from his son and wife.
Afterwards they gave Hiro a translation charm so he could understand them, and the first thing they said was how sorry they were, attempting to bow to him with their apology. Promising to make him feel as comfortable and wanted on Sodor as he did back home.
Hiro respectfully told them that it was a kind gesture, but he didn't want here to replace his home, he wanted it back. And he also apologised for that involuntary blast of magic, watching them regrow their bodies for the last few hours was bizarre even for him.
While the Hatts couldn't send Hiro back since he'd just be captured again and be bought by a different person, they tried to respect his wishes in whatever else he asked for. This even actually led to the Tidmouth stables getting a redesign as more of a house-stable mix, so the mythos could have separate rooms and even a kitchen to themselves.
From there, things became a routine. Hiro was beloved on the North Western railway for his strength and elegance, his popularity even reaching the mainland where his next round of troubles lied.
During one of his regular goods runs, he was captured by poachers. Because of his location travelling along right next to the sudrian woods, the poachers made a mistake in hauling him into the trees to hide themselves. Once Hiro was in the forest however was when the green struck.
After Hiro was chained and nailed down, the poachers left Hiro to hang there for a little while as they went to go find a buyer. Because of the enchanted forest however, they never found Hiro again.
This lead to the kirin being forgotten about as time moved on. Until a young alicorn crashed into him.
The rest is a story for another time...

Well now that Alfred has a secret admirer how does he feel about it all? Especially since there a diesel, has he told Godred and Timothy about this? Or Dudley especially since you previously mentioned him and Dudley talk a lot (or I'd assume they do)
Alfred doesn't talk to Godred since he lives on a mountain but knows of his existence, and nobody can see Timothy since he's a child spirit. The only one who'd be able to see him would be Toad since he's also a child spirit. Alfred has talked to Dudley about it along with the other older members of the railway, hoping to get their opinions on the matter of having a person interested in him. The only real useful advice he's gotten is from Edward since he's the only one who's married while 2 other members have only just begun dating someone. Alfred has been doing some sole searching since the initial reveal, first setting up some boundaries he'd consider in a relationship. First is he wouldn't want to date someone who couldn't live for an exceptionally long time, if they were mortal or couldn't live longer than 100 years he'd have to reject them. Second, he doesn't wanna date someone who's committed a serious crime. Third, he doesn't wanna date someone incredibly young by his standards, chronologically he's in his 70s, but physically in his 20s, and mentally he tends to bounce between the two. And fourth is that he's pretty sure he doesn't want kids, if his partner wished to adopt he'd have to end the relationship. If all of those could be met and as long as they're a nice person he couldn't honestly care what they'd look like.

So while I've been drawing another aged up Thomas for 1/1 on my other blog I fell down this rabbit hole that started with Skyrim, then rocketed down to D&D. At first I was kinda thinking how I would classify my mythic characters into a D&D world like who would be a brawler or something, but then I fell into this headcannon of how you could maybe make a train D&D game, specifically around the context of TTTE. Like different types of engines can be different races, and that can play into their classes. And it doesn't even have to be engines, you could add tugs and boats into it, as well as cars and other stuff. Has anyone done that yet? Like I want to but I'm currently to naive atm about the original DnD to really know how it would all work. My dyscalculia ass is still trying to get past the ability scores... If anyone knows a good youtube tutorial that spoon feeds you or runs you through it step by step I'd love a link in an ask or a message, or DM.

Surprise Alfreds secret admirer is some American diesel that's brought him a few roses (don't look too far into the meaning behind the colored roses or do I'm not saying anything 👀😳)
(alt without background ehjeheh)
Look at him! He'd be so happy but so embarrassed, he'd try his damndest to keep the flowers alive because ghosts have an unfortunate tendency to suck the life out of plants. He'd probably put them in a vase for the time being then proceed to turn invisible or sink through the floor. XD

On Christmas, Henry went to go visit his mother's grave to wish her a happy holiday. Imagine his surprise when he found a bear cub underneath her willow tree, Henry quickly picked the little one up and spent hours trying to find where his mother was, knowing how protective mama bears could be.
It wasn't until after a few minutes of looking did he begin to take notice of the cub's appearance, his tail was longer than normal and he had rather unique eyes and front paws. After cutting his search for the day for the mother bear he came back to Tidmouth sheds for the Christmas gathering. It wasn't until Boco and Mavis started to act strange did it start to click to Henry what this cub actually was.
He wasn't holding an actual animal, he was holding a were-bear child.
#and with the amount of were-creature adoptions#zak started to tease him non stop about becoming a papa bear#mythic!au#ttte#ttte henry#ttte bear#cw child abandonment

I've been watching a lot of Subnautica stuff as of late and it's been giving me the inspiration to finally design Hercules full dragon form... And then say that something else is much bigger.

Here's the winner to the previous poll, meet Edward's deceased father, Fury Flare. Fury was a protective father, literally giving his life so his family could escape from a team of mythos hunters. As a parent he felt into more of a teacher role then the traditional father, he was happy to see his children excel when they completed his lessons correctly. He wasn't one for to much affection but did give the hug and words of encouragement when it was needed. Fury now walks on the earth as a weak spirit, a ghost that doesn't want to move on but isn't strong enough to be seen like Alfred or Zorran. Only other weaker spirits can see each other, so Fury can see and talk to Thomas's brothers, Gordon's mother, Henry's mother and Zorran's daughter, the only one who can see them is a child spirit, and at the moment the only one on the railway is Toad, but he isn't around the Tidmouth Team long enough to notice them unfortunately. So Fury Flare is available for asks, he just won't be able to interact with many people.

Welp the results are in, Edward's dad will be getting a design. And in order of the votes, after him will be Henry's mother, Thomas's siblings, Gordon's mother, then James's mother.
As I'm writing this short fic about an alternate story for Gordon, I've written past the topic of his bio mother. And then it got me thinking about the other Tidmouth Teams bio parents, so I guess I gotta ask-

*while the main 7 sleep a purple portal came out of nowhere beneath them and transported them to the world of brawl stars* (the 7 has to stay there for 70 ask)
I had to google what brawl stars was, and after seeing the art work it doesn't ring a bell and I have no clue what it is. And good lord dude, 70?! My Max would be 10 to 15 at the bare minimum.
