[crypticpaw]

I really loved the concept you made about why Hordak should have raised adora as his own in canaon, and how the show would have gone. The Hordad AU is one of my favorite au that I am in love with. And I gotta ask, how different would the interactions have gone between Adora and Horde Prime? Cause I feel that he would be the same amount of creepy on everyone else, but even creepier on Adora.

Oh, boy... He would NOT have been pleased!

One of the things that I really like on Prime is his mannerisms, and he was faily "calm" during his screen time. That would not happen in the Hordad!AU!

It wouldn't be right away, but I really wanted to see him lose his composure!

So, I imagine when the gang goes to rescue Glimmer and Catra, they get separated. Bow finds Glimmer and Catra, Entrapta goes off to find Hordak, and Adora gets captured and dragged in to Horde Prime.

He does his whole monologue, all the good villain stuff until Adora mentions her "father".

----

Horde Prime freezes for a second, she can't see his face, his ears twitch and the tip of his tail wags in irritation. The menacing needle on the end of it inches from her face.

"'Father'...?" He laughs. "No, my dear. You have no father." He circles her, never taking his eyes off the dog.

"Cut the bullshit, Prime! You know I'm talking about Hordak! Where is he?!" She barks.

His smirk drops with his ears, his lips curl up a bit.

"Your 'father' is no longer!" The lion growled. "He returned to the Hivemind with his brethren, his rightful place. Understand, my dear, an heir to any of my little brothers would represent a need for a substitute after I am gone. But the thing is:"

He lowers his head to her. "I will never be 'gone'. Prime's Light is infinite! Undying! And I shall go on until this universe inplodes on itself! Your 'father', as a defect, might have forgotten that for a tiny bit, but I made sure to put him back on the right path!"

"We'll see about 'undying' when I cut off your throat!" Adora barked, the fur on her neck raised in anger.

Horde Prime snaps his head back to her. "You are testing my patience!" He growled. His eyes shot wide for a second as Adora could see an idea forming on his head. "But of course," He approached her with another creepy smile, purring. "I couldn't expect my defective little brother to educate you properly on the ways of the Light. Allow me to... Enlighten you!"

His massive paw came down on her, forcing her face on the ground. She barked and struggled underneath his hold, but his grasp wouldn't budge.

"What are you doing?!" There was more panic on her voice as she would like.

His purr got louder, as one of the snake-like needles left the port on his chest and took aim at her neck, ready to plundge in whenever.

"Just a second, my dear. I need you to sit still for me just for a moment." He said in a gentle voice. "You'll be with your 'father' in no time!"

Adora realised what he meant. Her tail hid between her legs and she shut her eyes in anticipation with a whimper.

Until she felt Horde Prime's pressure on her face fade and heard a blood-curdling roar.

She shot up, struggling to get up against her pawcuffs. Horde Prime tossed around his throne room, yowling, as he tried to shake an angry Entrapta off his face.

"Adora!" She heard one of the clone's voice call to her. It was Hordak! His eyes were red once more and his fur was a little disheveled.

"Dad!" Adora's tail wagged.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt? Did he do something? Did he touch you?" He said in a terrified voice, as he broke her out of the cuffs.

"GET OFF ME! DEMON!" Horde Prime roared, clawing at Entrapta's ears and little body.

Entrapta refused to let go of him, she had bitten him right on his three eyes, her little claws dug on his snout, and her ears snaked around his throat in an attempt to suffocate him.

"Get him! Get him!" Adora cheered Entrapta on as Hordak watched in horror.

"Adora!" Catra called out to her. Glimmer and Bow ran after her, stopping when Hordak turned to them.

"What is HE doing here?!" Glimmer barked.

Adora was about to reprehend her, but Horde Prime had managed to tear Entrapta away from his face. She hit the ground hard. Her mouth covered with acid green blood. She was about to strike him again, but Hordak grabbed her by her scruff.

"Let me at him! Let me at him!" Entrapta barked and wriggled on the cat's grasp. "I'm gonna beat his ass!"

Prime rubbed at his wounds. As he saw the blood on his paws, his eyes shot open. A growl rising in his throat, he turned to them, murder in his eyes. And roared a loud ear-piercing cry.

A rumble of thousands of paws running towards them, on their way to avenge their God's wounds.

"RUN!" His voice muffled. "RUN! NOW! RUN!"

They bolted right out of there.

Sorry about the long writting, I guess I needed to get this off my sistem😅😅 And sorry about any grammar mistakes, english is not my first language 😅

And it gave a little idea of how things would go!

Prime gets even more batshit crazy when it's just Entrapta and Hordak fighting him, but that's a story for another day!

[crypticpaw]

Creepy concept for the Hordad au. Imagine: Hordak is in his sanctum working on his tech having a rough time, when suddenly, young Adora comes in and helps him calm down. They talk and eventually Hordak starts talking about the future of the Horde and how he can't wait to see how she will grow up to be a strong leader and how they will conquer Etheria together. Adora is happy and says how she is excited for that day to come. Eventually he gets up and both start to leave the sanctum.......revealing an furious looking Horde Prime from behind them. Watching the memory as they both leave happily and without worry. And his glare is set on both of them, until it finally sets on little Adora.

Oooooooohhhhhh!!!!!!

THIS!!! This is amazing!!!!

This is why I love Tumblr so much! I adore interacting with you guys!! Y'all are so creative!!

YOU EXPECIFICALY, BEAN!!! THIS IS AWESOME, I'M NOT KIDDING, I LOVE IT!!!

I need to make more comics!

[crypticpaw]

Another concept for the hordad au (When they rescued Adora):

When Hordak saw the damage Entrapta did to Horde Prime he was shocked. How could she have done that? Why did she did that? Doesn't she realize the danger they are in?! To hurt a God such as him, to make him bleed, they will su-.........wait........God. Hordak beings to laugh. Prime looks at him with even more rage and slight confusion. Before he could say anything, Hordak speaks. "So it is true what they say. What I thought were nothing but lies and tales were right all along.............Gods don't bleed."

👀👀👀👀THIS!!!☝️ THIS RIGHT HERE!!!!☝️

I DON'T HAVE THE WORDS!!!

While this is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING I like to think Hordak would use that more on Kadroh, like: "Of course He lied to us! Did you not see the blood on His face when Entrapta bit Him?! Gods don't bleed, you idiot!"

BUT THIS IS SOME AMAZING WRITTING!!!

[crypticpaw]

I can imagine Hordak going all feral cat if horde prime ever threatened catra’s and Adora’s lives.

Oh, yes! Absolutely!

I really wanna draw more Horde Prime! I haven't really got his anatomy down like the others', but being a big cat, it shouldn't be difficult!

I wanna draw him getting his ass kicked by Entrapta

[crypticpaw]

The writing was amazing!!! Gives more detail into how different Prime is in the Hordad AU compared to the Canon universe. It kinda almost gives me an idea how he reacted or what he was thinking when he looked at Hordak's memories and saw Adora. What do you think?

Aaaahhhh! Thank you!!! I'm not very confident on my writting, so I'm glad you liked it!

And, yeah, Horde Prime was first confused, then angry. Like I mentioned in the precious ask, an heir of any kind would be a big offense to him, so not only was he mad at Hordak, he wanted to get rid of Adora straight away!

When he found out she was She-Ra, though...! He tried to chip her, but failed! Thank goodness for Entrapta!

Hello again! It's been a while. Funny story, I'm actually working on a she-ra au fanfic which involves hordad, and was thinking ahead to season 5 and that left me wondering: How would the dinner with Horde Prime go in your Hordad au? I can imagine that, differently from canon when Prime just call adora a "nuisance that must be purged", Prime takes about her more and calls her something else or explained what he saw in Hordak's memories and starts talking about current Adora or something.

Hi! Sorry for the late response!

I haven't really thought much about the details of the AU and the dinner scene kinda escaped me!

Yes, Prime would see Adora as more of a nuisance than anything else. The "your beacon of hope" would instead be something like "the unfortunate little bug" or something like "she was as much as a dissapointment to my little brother as he is to me"

I can definetly see him calling her "little bug" or "the pest" or something condescending like that!

Also, send me the fic when you finish it! I wanna see it!👀👀👀

[crypticpaw]

I'm glad that you loved the Hordad au concept. AND HO BOY am I getting new ideas for this au, especially the moments when Horde Prime is looking at Hordak's memories. Once again I'm wondering how Catra and Horde Prime interaction would go in that scene were he is looking at Hordak's memories?

Y'all fill me with creative juice!

Nothing would change much from cannon, expcept no one gets chipped and Hordak is rescued with Catra and Glimmer!

I actually have another AU where Entrapta gets dragged to Prime's ship somehow and he knows she's good building stuff so he makes a "You build me a weapon with the Heart and I give you your boytoy back!" deal with her.

Catra and Glimmer talk with her and she's just miserable. She's mad, she wants Hordak back and in that mess, Horde Prime gets frustrated with her.

Double Trouble gets found faking a Clone Brother and the girls lie saying they're Glimmer's cousin in order to not get them thrown out an airlock.

Double Trouble starts calling Glimmer "cous" and she hates it.

They try to talk to Entrapta again, but she's lost her cool and starts breaking everything, running around looking for Hordak. Catra and Glimmer try to stop her to no effect and Double Trouble is just watching, absolutely triving in the chaos.

Hordak finally snaps out of Prime's hold when he finds Entrapta cornered and they all get into an escape-pod, where Kadroh follows them and Hordak fights him, snapping him out of Prime's hold too.

Glimmer is LIVID she's trapped in this stupid ship with a bunch of villains, but she grows to actually form a bond with all of them.

She apologises to Entrapta, talks shit about Shadow Weaver with Catra, Double Trouble helps her with her clothes, she finds out about Hordak's defect and uses her magic to help with his pain once and Kadroh is just a sweetheart!

She promises to speak for them with the Rebellion, but nobody wants to go to the Princesses. Until of course, they get captured.

But that's a story for another day!
