Happy 1#

anniversary

Today marks one year since I started publishing my Wish Rewrite.

So, here's a drawing to celebrate.

Thank you so much for all your support and for being part of this story.

Side Characters in WCtS

This is the first in a series of posts I want to make, just talking about WCtS - my thoughts behind it, worldbuilding that probably won't be expressly stated in the story (or a reference point while reading idk), etc. I decided on side characters for the first one cause why not, so I'll get to it (also, the sketches are super rough so do excuse that. and my handwriting probably).

Simon:

Simon, having had his wish granted by Manus several months before the story starts, is Azhar's guard commander (given that the Isle is a peaceful place, this makes him a protector, a guardian, and an overseer of the people). Because of all the work the position comes with, he doesn't get much sleep, but he's very intent on doing his best. He's a pretty quiet guy but is always making sure people get their breaks in and ensures guard shifts are fair. I'm not terribly sure of his backstory (given it's not very relevant) but I imagine he comes from a working family (what trade, no clue) with probably a number of siblings. He's 20, and met Asha after the ceremony his wish was granted when she very enthusiastically took him on a tour, and they've been friends since then.

(the rest is under the cut)

Dahlia:

I swear I saw a Dahlia redesign where she had a ponytail but I can't remember who, so that may have influenced mine oopsies. Anyways, Dahlia works in the palace kitchens alongside her mothers (who'll likely remain nameless lest they decide to include themselves in the greater story) and has done so for practically all her life. She was found as a child on a boat to the Wishing Isle by the women who'd adopt her. No one knows how or why Dahlia was there, much less with a badly healed leg, but they took her in and raised her as their own. As for the actual story, Dahlia's 19 and doesn't have her wish, but remains snarky and no-nonsense. Cooking is her job, but baking is her hobby, a calm place in her life that she goes to after long, hectic days in the kitchens. She became friends with Asha when the latter kept coming to the kitchens to nab food while studying and Dahlia insisted she eat it down there so she didn't make a mess elsewhere, and the two just got to talking (they also may or may not have dated at some point).

While I've only kept Simon and Dahlia as true side characters, I intend to work the other 5 of the 7 teens into WCtS in whatever way i need them, just as background ones. Hal and Bazeema are in Ch 3, and Gabo, Safi, and Dario are slated to crop up later (despite my intensive outlining I don't know when that is though). I do intend to have some of them reoccur (if not all, we'll just have to see), but they aren't going to be as prominent as S & D.

Lastly, there may be no Valentino in WCtS (to say the least, I did not enjoy him but that's neither here nor there) but there is an animal companion (who at one point was going to briefly talk but I think I scrapped that scene) and that's Eve:

He (yes, he, I wanted the name Eve cause evening/eve of = night which is kinda stars and stars very important in wcts and all this is too convoluted for the reasoning for a name for cat) follows Anastasia around with the loyalty and insistence of a dog, and due to being exposed to not just her magic but Manus's too, Eve is pretty much immortal.

(He does actually have a proper ref now so I'll just put it here)

I was thinking about adding Asha's parents to this post, but I think I'm going to save them for the actual story (and also this is getting far too long).

I actually sketched the concepts on the same piece of paper, but edited the above ones to be neater (yeah it was done a while ago, and sorry if my handwriting is too hard to read, but those're mostly notes for myself). I'll make references for Simon and Dahlia at some point (soon cause I'll be needing them soon).

That's all I have for now, no idea when the next will be because sticking to a schedule is (not) my specialty, so I'll return to the void and pop back up whenever I've something more to yap about.

GUYS, I was looking through my old sketchbook from December 2023 and found these old Wish doodles I made inspired by this YouTube video by ArtisanTM. I remember being super hyper-fixated on the concept behind this Wish AU and watched the video like 20 times.

When the creator didn't make any more content for this AU, I decided to just make more stuff myself. Since I'm posting my art now, I may as well share these pieces with you all (please don't judge the super bad quality old art. I swear I've improved since then hahah. Maybe I'll do a redraw of one of these pages one day).

Also, as some of you may know, I've been working on my own Wish AU, which also takes inspiration from that video. I've made a good amount of pieces for the AU, but I'm not a very good story writer so idk if I should post it or not. Though, I'd be curious to hear what you guys think, Wish fandom.

Ya'll are not gonna like this but uh...

Yeah Flazino has friends😔

I know, shocking.

So, about them. They all have been friends since they were younger. But as they got older, the friend group got more toxic. Flazino is the most respected one because he's an apprentice to the king. And even though he's not supposed to, he showed his friends how to use magic. Which they use to cause trouble, and even to hurt others.

Aster: He's the one who get's into a lot of fights, because hurting others physically makes him feel superior. Aster is someone who get's angry quickly and wants things to go his way, and when it doesn't happen, he get's aggressive. When he actually likes someone though, he can be quite nice and respectful. The cause of his behavior can be traced to Aster's parents, who emotionally distracted and neglected him as a child. Aster uses the magic Flazino showed them the most, he likes to use it for "pranks" and to cause trouble.

Jonah: He's the one who actually doesn't like how his friends are behaving or what they're doing. He feels guilty for the pain and harm they're causing. He wants to leave the friend group but is afraid of what they'll do to him if he does. So, he stays but is constantly on edge and tired, he's afraid of how far his friends would go. He never actually participates in "pranks" they are doing, unless he's pressured into it by the others. Jonah is rather quiet and isn't doing well mentally. He's the only one who barely uses the magic Flazino showed them. He doesn't like this magic at all.

Diego: At first glance, Diego seems charming and benevolent, someone who just wants to help people. But that is just a way to get people to trust him. He loves to subtly bully others, he does it a lot in front of people's faces too, but they're never sure if he's just being nice or if he was messing with them. He finds out people's secrets and desires and uses those things against them. Diego's looks mean a lot to him, and he cannot stand it when someone, like Aster for example, drags him into a fight he started, like, the audacity. Well, at least he has the magic Flazino showed them to heal his wounds.

This group likes to mainly go after the seven teens, especially when they're all seperated and not there to protect each other. Asha is sometimes one of them. Flazino wouldn't hurt her because he has a crush on her, but Diego and Aster would do it. But they'll listen to Flazino.

Especially if they get the chance to hurt someone else instead.

Yeah.

------------

Hope you guys like (or rather, hate) these characters✨

(Fun fact: They're inspired by the triplets from Beauty and The Beast!)

Anastasia design

Got around to designing Ana, even though she won't appear for another handful of chapters. Also, cat! I'm meaning to make a post about her and Manus at some point too, so I'll save the talking for then.

[starss-artss]

He was being a little gremlin and is now put in time out😔

[starss-artss]

I was watching a video of this dude rewriting wish songs because they are ass and butt and not in a good way. And one line really irked me where the king says, "Its genetics! I got these genes from outer space!" Which.. no?? You got your magic from space, but that isn't genetic at all. Then i read a comment about how that line was from an older version of the song with a different story where the king was another star that came down to earth and took a humanoid form??!??! Hello?? That wouldve been so good!

If they kept the star boy character and people were like "hes odd, idk why tho" but the king IMMEDIATELY clocked his shit because he pulled the same stunt?? Maybe he only grants one wish a month because to him, that's a lot of wishes? Cause he's literally a star and lives a lot longer than humans and maybe forgets or doesn't realize that humans have a much shorter lifespan.

Or i saw someone else mention that maybe he could grant EVERY wish, regardless of what it is, because he doesn't comprehend the consequences of it? And maybe the reason he went to earth was because stars aren't supposed to grant every wish, and he got in trouble with the other stars or something?? Like theres a star council that sends out shooting stars in the sky to grant wishes

IT COULDVE BEEN SO GOOD

✨☀️Asha's father☀️✨

Since today is father's day, it's time to show ya'll how Asha's father looked like☀️

Soooo this is Thomás :D

Thomás was the cool and chill dad. He was a dork and very supportive, and was absolutely smitten with his wife and loved his daughter very much✨

It wasn't very surprising that when Sakina passed away, he was absolutely devastated. But he still tried to be strong and there for his daughter. Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly when Asha was 8 years old.

Lmaoooooo

The moment Flazino is free, he is taking WoaS!Magnifico's staff before beating him up with it lol. Mostly because he's scared, and also because that this hag kidnapped him and wanted to name him "Magnifico Junior Junior"💀

He might also look for SS!Asha to try and make her feel bad for him.

As soon as WoaS!Magnifico heard that SS!Flazino has an ego and no real respect towards others, he knew: That boy would be perfect to be his son. (Nico will just get replaced.)

For anyone wondering, SS!Flazino will get the same treatment as Nico: He'll have no real choices and is forced to be like Magnifico. But luckily for SS!Flazino he dosen't have to really change his personality to be more like WoaS!Magnifico ✨️

@starss-artss ,how would SS!Flazino react to this kidnapping adoption attempt?👀
