#Heccin' help

[cq-studios]

(Hello! Future me here. This has an Ask Blog now and not everything here is still canon to the AU please keep this in mind while reading ^^)

Brain rotting about a KHUX AU I came up with right now

TW: Doomsday Cult, Mass Suicide, Child and Animal Death, Child Abuse (let me know if I'm missing something here and I'll update it)

A know that's a lot but hear me out.

Its the real world, late 30s early 40s. MoM's some rich dude who takes advantage of the influx of orphans to make Daybreak Town, which in this universe is essentially some sort of experimental orphanage. He stages the "War against Darkness" (the Keyblade War equivalent) which is a mass suicide. The Dandelions are to make sure they can defeat darkness again in case it ever came back (since MoM genuinely believes in what he's doing). The NULs are in charge for a while but then the government finds out and relocates all the Dandelions to normal homes. The NULs are mostly separated and need to adjust to normal society... but they're also determined to find each other again.

(My notes are under the cut... still developing everything I'll probably add more later)

Timeline of Events (Pre-relocation):

MoM is very rich and bought a massive property and built Daybreak Town on it

MoM adopted the Foretellers and Luxu, about 13 years before he bought the property, they are orphans from the Great War

Daybreak Town was a self sustaining cult masquerading as an orphanage

A lot of farming and hunting happening

All the ‘keyblade wielders’ are orphans from the Great Depression

MoM and the Foretellers basically convinces the kids KH lore (a la time of Fairytales) is real

Every “Keyblade Wielder” has a “Chirithy” which is just a cat

The “Keyblade War” is a mass suicide designed to destroy darkness

This happens halfway into 1939

They killed most of the Chirithies too

Luxu is the only Lost Master who survives this (and he leaves soon after)

The Dandelions are to “keep the light alive”

Ephemer and Skuld save Player from the “War” by stopping them from drinking the poison

They end up switching their cup with another Dandelion’s

Ven overhears Dandelions talking about surviving and ends up switching his cup with Strelitzia’s in a panic

He realizes afterwards that she was important and filled in out of guilt

He also totally mixes his memories around here and forgets what he did

Elrena is the one who buries Strelitzia and is the one who tells Lauriam she’s dead (only once he asks about her though)

The NULs are in charge for about a year and a half before the government relocates the Dandelions

The NULs were not particularly close before then

Basically the social events of Union X (minus the murder reveal, the relocation stops that before it can happen)

The NULs and Player try their best not to be separated but end up being relocated to households decently far from each other

Ephemer ends up alone

Brain and Player are pretty close together and meet up rather quickly

Skuld, Lauriam, and Ven end up a decently close together but far enough that they don’t know yet

Elrena is placed in the same household as Lauriam

(Post relocation stuff I'm still working on but I do have some ideas)

Additional Notes:

It’s the real world, USA, and the early 40s, whoop

1941 (at the relocation) to be exact

World War 2 is in full swing and the States are involved… I think

MoM (and the NULs afterwards) were totally bribing the people who were checking in on Daybreak Town before the “war” so he could keep it open… either that or there were just too many kids to actually check to see if they were all accounted for

Probably didn’t help that they would use any dead bodies as fertiliser for their garden so there’s no clear graves for anyone

Everyone drank something during the “war” (it’s easier to convince people if they don’t think anyone’s going to survive), the Dandelions just drank from glasses without the poison

Daybreak Town is significantly more accepting of than the greater society

The NULs are completely taken aback by any type of bigotry

Poor Player gets misgendered all the time and is forced to wear masculine clothes even when they want to be more fem

Skuld cannot with gender roles

like she’s actually gonna explode with all this lack of rights business

Everyone (outside of the Dandelions) assumes Ephemer and Skuld are dating

To be clear, they are not

Player and Brain both refused to be separated from their Chirithies

Ven’s Chirithy finds him

Oh my lord these kids don’t know how to be normal

They were essentially brainwashed so they’re all stuck on the KH lore they were taught as truth

They’re all severely traumatized, obviously, but on top of the whole “Keyblade War” thing and you know, other doomsday cult stuff, they had awful healthcare and so kids would die very often and gruesomely

The NULs’ instincts are still a main reason they’re still alive

They brush off death very easily because of this, normal people are alarmed

They’re way behind on education because of their situation

Brain is definitely the most literate out of all of them but he was still limited in what he could read

Brain loves making (and deconstructing) things whether it’s sewing new clothes and plushies (something he did quite often in Daybreak Town) or the new technology, like radios and telephones (something he takes to once he’s relocated)

Brain would make plushies for “wielders” who had nightmares they were often amalgamations of various animals (just like the spirits)

He prefers to learn things through trial and error rather than being shown and he is incredibly stubborn about that

Teachers hate him for this

The new parents of Brain do their damndest to convert him to Christianity but he ends up just becoming an atheist instead

He is not quiet about it either

He probably gets beaten because of it

People find Ephemer kind of off putting

He always has a new theory about something going on with the authority based on his KH lore upbringing

He’s also one of the NULs the deepest in the delusion (Ven is the only one I think is deeper)

He’s starting to pull out of it but it’s a very slow process

He brings up death way to casually, and is always talking about his friends and their weird adventures together

Even with all that though he doesn’t really behave his age since he was forced to grow up so fast in Daybreak Town

Hi I can't sleep

[egginfroggin]

I shouldn't be allowed to wander around and let my brain go on autopilot because then it results in things like the realization that numerous hateable, villainous characters used to be smol little children and that deeply wounds me internally

[that-vibe-i-cant-explain]

Love the creepy vibes of Wild Blue Yonder, but even then I was not prepared. When Donna got left behind and thought she was gonna die, I just 😭😭😭

[moltengoldveins]

Any tips for drawing Barney- i mean Susie?

why is she so complex?

Some people have troubles with her snout I think, because the rest of her body is pretty standard fair. What helps me is drawing two overlapping circles. One big one for her head and another smaller one for her snout. Then I just combine the two for like a wonky bean shape.

Wonky MS Paint mouse doodle because I'm heccin tired lol

Ok so there's a new clip out that a friend showed me, and it got me thinking. In the clip we see the Bros finding the pipe, and somewhere along the way Mario loses track of Luigi. We see him enter the pipe, and he says:

"Luigi, are you in here?" And he almost sounds... exasperated? Like this has happened before. Maybe it's just the nerves of being in such an unsettling place, but as a younger sibling I recognize the exasperation in his voice, lmao. That's the voice your brother uses when you once again get yourself into a Situation, and he's done with your Curious George arc.

That being said, if anyone has played Mario Galaxy, you know that every now and then Luigi will send you a letter basically saying:

"Hey Bro! I found something interesting, but now I'm stuck in x place and need help."

So you go to help him, and you end up finding this ridiculous green bean in the most bizarre place imaginable, and you're left reenacting that one Security Breach meme:

"GREGORY! What the *honk* are you doing?? HOW DID YOU GET UP THERE?!?!?!"

This man right here:

Is absolutely impulsive as shit. Yes, he's jittery, and is most definitely going to scream at the sight of his own shadow, but put him on the trail of something interesting and all common sense goes down the pipes. This guy is ALWAYS getting himself into these situations, throughout the games, and presumably also in the movie.

I would not put it past this guy to cause unintentional chaos in Bowser's castle, just with his curiosity. Someone pointed out that his level of fear always stays the same, that he sees a spider in the bathroom and heccin' Cthulhu with the same level of fear, and it's absolutely true. Idk, maybe I'm overanalyzing this, but the idea just gave me a laugh. Feel free to share your thoughts!

(here's the clip, btw!)

HELLO HELLO

I WOULD LIKE TO PROPOSE TICKLISH PALM TANJIRO BECAUSE IT CUTE AND HE USS THAT SWIRD A HECCIN LOT

{Headcanons to Dabbles: CLOSED!}

KJERKJEKJRJKEKJREJK I LOVE THIS AHH! Ticklish hands are so underrated! Tanjiro would get so giggly during check ups akjrejkarjkejkrajek I've gotcha covered, friend! :D

Tanjiro really thought this would be easier.

He was proven very, very wrong.

“Hold still! Geez, how the hell do people take care of you like this?” Genya growled around a mouthful of tape roll, one hand squeezing Tanjiro’s wrist to keep him still as the other wrapped a roll of soft bandage around his calloused hand. Normally the task would be assigned to one of the caterpillar girls here, but they were all busy with other patients and Tanjiro felt bad for bothering them.

Then Genya felt bad that Tanjiro felt bad and blurted out that he’d take care of his injured hand without really thinking about it.

That was how they got here.

“I’m sorry! I’m sohohohohoohohrry!” Tanjiro giggled out, his free hand pressed into his mouth as he tried not to move so much. “It tihihihihickles tohohohohohohooo muuhuhuhuhuch!”

“Yeah, obviously.” Genya rolled his eyes- the gesture not unkind. “Is he always this giggly when you treat him?” He turned to look at Kanao sitting by the first aid box in her lap as she watched them struggle through the process.

“I’m not usually the one to do so but…yes, from the sounds of it.” She shrugged some, barely fighting down a giggle when Tanjiro hooted. “He’s one of the few people I know with ticklish hands.”

“Iihihiihihihs it thahhahahhat rahhahahhahahahre?” Tanjiro tried to keep the conversation going even as he laughed, jerking some when Genya’s fingers brushed along the inside of his palms. “I hahahahd no idheahhaahahhahaha!”

“Not really rare- all my siblings had ticklish hands growing up.” Genya grunted as he tucked the last of the gauze, taping it down. “Brother probably grew out of it.”

“He didn’t.” Kanao spoke, earning a surprised look from both of them. “I had to help Shinobu with him once.”

“Huh. Maybe it’s a genetic thing?” Tanjiro mused, suddenly eyeing Genya’s open hands. Without warning, he reached out and scratched his palm.

“GEHA!” The bigger boy yelped, shooting his hands back with a giggle. Kanao huffed out a laugh behind her hand.

“Genetic.” Tanjiro giggled, laughing more as he was pushed down and tickled properly.

WARNING MAJOR OUTER WILDS SPOILERS

Part 2 of my Outer Wilds collection because I have a new Hyperfixation and introducing my blorbo Solanum who I am correctly obsessed with help me

[theknifeclown]

It was a quiet night, It had been a wonderful date, Sunny knew that it was time, he had been fiddling with the box in his pocket for the whole date. He took a moment to stop and get Terrin's attention.

It was sudden, Sunny isn't even sure what came out of his mouth, but he hopes it made sense and was convincing and romantic. He was very confused when Terrin began to giggle and crouch down to his level...

"I thought.. I was going to quickly with this, but I'm not sure if I'm glad or not that you beat me to it?"

Terrin began to laugh "Suppose this means it's gonna be a yes?" Sunny was shocked to see Terrin was planning the exact same thing! Of course! They'd always been in sync...

They couldn't help but laugh at this. They're so silly! Of course this is something that would happen...

They're just so happy...

If you have folklore or fairytales that you use or even whole heccin’ novels send them to me!! Please for the love of god I can’t go back to the Archfey Doministra again!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH— I’m getting sucked back in again!!!
