#basically just an excuse for me to draw horses :')

[spiderziege]

A few questions about your 3rd Life Horse AU.

What happens to the horses after their player’s die, if anything? I like to think that the horses would just go back to their home base and live there until the last player dies, but we all know that The Watchers aren’t nearly that kind.

Does Scott SMajor not have a horse of his own, or did he give his horse to Jimmy to ride because he didn’t have a horse?

Not a question here though. I love your art style, and I adore this AU. 10/10. Thank you for existing.

Signed, @dreemurr00

the thing with the horse au is that i havent actually put all that much thought into it except for 'what if they all had horses?' :'D but the way i imagine it, once the player permadies the horse gets left behind and either it returns to the wild or it gets taken in by a team member (the watchers dont really exist in this scenario cause i dont like them lol)

also scott and jimmy share a horse (and technically scar and grian do to, but of course they also have pizza). mostly just cause i do like the idea of some of the alliances sharing a horse, and with scott and jimmy it just felt right. but if i had given each of them a horse then jimmy would get the Haflinger and scott would probably have a Lusitano or something

Homestuck Mythical Creature au / Cryptid Au

Very tempted to make an ask blop :p need to see if anyones inch rested

thought processes under the cut (bc some choices are wild)

Johns a pooka, an irish fae trickster who shapeshifts into animals. his favorite form is the bunny. john and jane are both fae, so their pranks range from harmless to mentally scaring to life altering. absolute chaos grimlins. dirk is also an irish myth, so he knows them well and is often trying to get them to not ruin the local population of humans. so they do pranks on him insted. john loves to steal dirks head and hide it places.

rose speaks to the eldritch horrors and is slowly becoming one herself. she wants to become a litch.

Dave is a harpy! a very chill one who doesn't tend to sing with his full chest, so people dont start crashing into his doorstep. dave dies in some magic accident that caused davesprite to rise up from the ashes. but dave harpy is ALSO fine no ones really sure how. may have been roses doing.

Jade is a werewolf obv. but shes also a witch and has formed a coven with rose and roxy.

Jane is ur avrage fae faerie/sprite. her favorite fae rule to get people to break is "dont eat their food."

Roxy is both a cat who is also a wizard i need not elaborate

Dirk is a headless horseman. not to be confused with THE headless horse man. thats another dullhan with a well paying halloween gig. dirk is often subject to losing his head, so he made a magic pumpkin to pilot the body when this happens. he does have a very large and scary but beautiful horse.

Jake is the bigfoot. and one of the most well hunted (and well travled) cryptids. thus, his friends often make jokes of not ever seeing him except in blurry images. its not his fault hes very large and loves to travel! and is also not very photogenic...

Aradia is a monthra!!! however she made a deal with a devil and became a ghost... not sure WHY yet or why it kills her. but it does. its all in her plan or smth, but that doesnt stop sollux from being very upset that hes the one that has to take and keep her soul. she is reserected later by the coven, still soulless but it doesnt matter bc her soul is in good hands and thus she still feels it. shes much happier now.

Tavros is a minotar self explanatory he is a small minotar, tho. a mini minotar if u will.

Sollux is ur run of the mill soul for potato chip demon. an excuse to give him twin tails and horns. him an kitkat gave me the most trouble! but then i went with a solkat devil angel motifi and im kinda attached t9 it now. even if its sorta a cop out. i simply couldnt find twin creatures that werent gods or children of gods. nor any crab creatures...

Karkat is an angel. he WAS human notably he was human for awhile even good friends with kanaya before he died. he never found love but helped so many with theres that he became an angel that was a lot like cupid. thus he was a small angel incharge of match making and also likened to a baby and hes very much NOT happy about this. it pisses him off, solluxs often gives him a hard time. about it. (extra angst is that kitkats also really fucked up about never knowing what love felt like but having to give it to others. and he has it in his head that that means he never will know, bc no ones matchmaking the matchmaker. but theres a song he hears everyonece anwhile by a stray harpy that makes him feel a lot lighter.)

Nepeta is my go to cat creature a nekomata. a two tailed cat yokai.

Kanaya is a vampire. obviously.

Terezi is a dragon! still blind! still licks. but can now transform and has wings, very scary. shes basiclly just her lusus lmao.

Vriska is a spider lady. i have arachne here bc its similar, but shes not arachne the myth proper. shes just a spider with the top part of a woman at the head. A Jorogumo a spider lady yokai and is basically actually what im picturing.

Equius is a centar and fuck if i ever have to draw him....

Gamzee is a clowwwn, just a clown, just a silly lil guy. What do you MEAN clowns arnt mythical creatures??? what do u mean u saw him under ur bed when you were a child? u must be mistaken. as a nod to ICPs boogieman. when gamzee is not high as a kite and is just a clown, he is one of the most terrifying and unkillable creatures known to children kind.

Eridan is a selkie. basiclly a mermaid but part seal. personally, I'd like to make him part seahorse. but not in the hippocampus way. i chose this bc he can shapeshift, thus he pretends to be a high elf sorcerer, yes he does get dunked on about this.

And finally, Feferi is a siren! who happens to be able to become very VERY **VERY** BIG. she doesnt lure people to drown them but she DOES love to keep live captives in cages :)

[twisted-wonderland-shenanigans]

Also for the monster au, would the babies in Twisted be more mature than the human babies, cuz they are technically premature cuz of their big head. Which is why we are wired with cuteness protection (or worse cuteness aggression) to protect the youngins.

The moment I see cute baby animals:

When it comes to the monsters, it depends on the species! A good chunk of them would be rather small because their parent species is designed for more than one offspring (or "litters/clutches" depending on the species).

That doesn't mean it's rare for them to have only one or two kids at a time, though! For example, if we were to go with the reptilian species like the basilisk, only a few eggs are viable while the rest are decoys. This is a defensive mechanism caused by instincts that hadn't quite faded over time now that monsters and other predatory creatures around Twisted Wonderland aren't as much of a threat as before.

Anyway, monster babies develop pretty quick compared to humans as in the past, they had to grow strong enough to learn to hunt and fend for themselves when their parents had to go out hunting or foraging. Nowadays, monsters have developed a pack/flock/herd/pod mentality, meaning they can live with their family for as long as necessary until they're ready to set out and find their own path.

Does this mean they can learn to talk faster? In a way, yes. Does this mean they still know what they're saying or doing? Not quite! For them, instincts and learned behaviors can take over before their consciousness fully emerges like it would for humans. For example, I first started becoming aware of the world and the things I was doing when I was maybe 4 or 5 years old (memory is a fickle thing), though I never understood why I knew what to call the things or people the things I was calling them--I just knew it was right.

Same concept for the monsters!

If we were to talk about which species would develop even faster, it would likely be any equine/ungulate based monster! The reason being is that--in the wild--animals such as deer and buffalo or antelope and even horses and goats have babies that learn to stand and run within minutes or even hours of being born. This is to ensure the survival of the baby and that they can keep up, which means that they wouldn't naturally know how to crawl like human babies would.

Here's a silly little comic done by Litterbox Comics over on Twitter! This basically gives a bit of a comparison on how fast the baby ungulates get to their little hooves 😂

Now, despite this, please accept this imagery of a baby goat loafing and picture baby faun Riddle loafing:

Basically, a good chunk of the monsters would have (and still can) loaf and are absolutely adorable to imagine. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna practice anatomy so I can draw baby monster boys loafing because I can!

Now, as for those that have human ancestry in their DNA, I can see some monsters growing a little slower than is normal for their species with no clear explanation why. There's nothing wrong with them physically or mentally. They're just taking a little longer to develop certain motor skills or learning things differently, and new young parents might be concerned and worried.

Doctor: "There's nothing wrong. They're perfectly fine and it happens sometimes. It's perfectly normal."

In the end, they do develop into the fine (chaotic) young men we know and adore~!

[fellow-traveller]

This is gonna be long, so if you don't have the time to read it, it's cool, I'll summarise it like this:

I think I'm back. Kinda. Expect some blasts of Hol Horse fanart that I missed sharing here since November 2023 (if you followed my Twitter/X, you might have seen them)

Okay, I know excuses can be bad but here's mine to kinda justify my absence.

I admit that I had been feeling depressed with what's happening in P@lest1ne for the past 6 months, because I had never seen it happening in real time, in videos and interviews. 20+ years ago, anything about them came in the form of stories from actual P@lest1nians whom I had the privilege to meet during my volunteer work in school, and newspaper articles from local publishers. Our local broadcasters still chant FTRTTS whenever they talk about them. But the real-time atrocities and the aftermath really got me hard. I'm not one to shy away from real-life gore - true crime is my go-to documentary whenever I'm relaxing - but what's happening there - the injustice, the brutality, the depravity - can be too much for me to bear.

I'm not saying I'm used to it by now...I still hear my heart break with every dead and hungry child I see on my screen, but at the same time, I feel a bit more hopeful. Mainly because I believe in the P@lest1nians' faith and resilience, and I believe in mine.

Apart from world events, on a personal level, my company moved to a new building in December, about an extra 30 minutes drive away from my home, so I was almost on a blackout from online stuff back then. Didn't even touch the 1 Day 1 Hol Horse challenge (but thankfully they are done now...will share them later). The move-out was done around the end of January 2024, and then I got busy again with work in February. Work had been very hectic because everything had been disorganised since the move. Even now, we don't really have internet in the new building and had to use our phone data for that.

Wanted to get back last month, but delayed it until today because my cat was sick with cancer. My cat, little Vee, whom I had for 12 years, just passed 2 days ago, 1 day before my birthday ;-;

Anyway, all that said, I think I'm ready to be back now on tumblr. I know I missed a lot of drawings that I kinda promised myself to finish (like the Halloween Hol), and also posting the 1 Day 1 Hol Horse doodles. I missed other people's Hol Horse and HolPol fanart as well. I also have a few thoughts I wanted to share of our favourite JoJo cowboy too...

So in the next few hours, I'll be doing just that. I apologise for the massive spam that's about to come beforehand. Just note that if you cannot wait for the fanart blast, you're welcomed to dig for them on my Twitter/X.

On current notes, I'm in the middle of doing The Emperor Month Challenge. Basically, Hol Horse with the other Part 3 characters. I missed 2 days now, but I'll be catching up. This will be on until the end of this month.

For now, I won't be doing requests/art trades because I wanna start drawing for my JoJo OCs. I have been neglecting them for months.

Hopefully the depression will simmer down. The world is a mess, and I'm trying to soldier on.

Oh, and to my Muslim followers, Happy Eid-ul-Fitr. ♥

Creations AU FNAF 4, But I obnoxiously over explain it PT 3

FNAF 4 pages 60-90

*Warning ahead for heavily abusive language.

Oh boy I sure hope we get an answer.

Lmao mom and dad are fighting.

Yikes Diana that's not very nice.

Hah nope.

Okay but why did people think this genuine moment between William and his son was somehow malicious???

Dude is just talking to his son who is currently breaking down wtf is wrong with some people??? XD

This was after Sister Location on webtoon too so there should be no excuse for this bad faith reading of William's character after some of the scenes in that comic. I won't spoil but like...??????????

Like William is a bad person in cannon and this comic but it's legit-

William: *breathes*

Audiance: YOU BASTARD!!!!!

HE'S A PERSON TOO AND IS WRITTEN AS SUCH?

The reference to being a devil will only make more sense as the FNAF 1 ARC draws to a close.

Oh ho ho hooooooo.

So, that's why Sammy's a fucking weirdo about robots in the FNAF 1 Arc.

Also this gives context to the whole scene where Mike and his sister in law talk about Charlie still being alive while having a grave in the FNAF 1 Arc.

The one walking around is a robot.

So unlike everything implied in cannon: Creations William loves his children.

Is it always in a healthy/good way: NO. AND THAT WILL ONLY BECOME MORE APARENT AS FNAF 1'S ARC COTNENUES.

He even loves the one that indirectly KILLED one of his others lmao.

I just enjoy giving William an actual character. Lmfao. Unlike a lot of people who get on a high horse for making him a plank of wood. X'D

Yes. he's evil man you wrote the most basic boring bland mother fucker on the planet to be said antagonist. You're very cute making that your antagonist while not thinking about how making him that fucking boring and personalities affects the themes or ideas of your work. Here's a fucking cookie???

I hate this way of writing William if you can't tell lmfao.

"He can't have a motive or you're humanizing him" is such a horse shit take and I won't stfu about it considering how prevalent of an idea that shit was on Twitter. X'D

Idk if this is a wake up call that women can be abusers too but like, they can be lmao. Trust me on that.

Oops. The demon thing heard you.

William's default to dealing with Diana is to try and fix things and placate her enough to where she won't go nuclear. Which is sad, but he sucks in different ways.

Really they are a tale of "A match made in hell".

Everyone makes shitty choices here lmao.

Diana antagonizes somebody off their rocker and William's a spinless bastard to both his wife and his creepy demon.

He didn't wanna do it himself and I find that amusing.

The poorest of poor choices were made by everyone involved.

There's little sympathy for any parties here lmao. Except maybe Ballora. X'D

That instant regret lmao. "I MADE A MISTAKE WOOPS"

That's a repeat thing with our good ol Willy boy.

He makes a mistake, and then keeps repeating the same mistake lmao.

William is stuck in a loop of perpetually falling into making the same mistakes over and over and it is a theme of the series WILLIAM is the one who needs to solve HIS OWN problems.

William takes no accountability where it's REALLY NEEDED, blames and pushes it onto others can't find the strength to fight his own inner demons and falls into the same pitfalls over and over.

Hehe your house is a bit odd there William.

William's just fed up with everyone involved in this situation lmao.

I mean yeah, the demon thing IS a bad liar.

He directly cause Diana to die lmao.

And I like William calling him out on that. William in some part is scared of his own inner demons taking form as this thing that mimics him.

"The demon" as I call him is important and also a direct reflection of William's own mistakes. William not confronting or taking care of this "Demon" in any meaningful way part of the damn problem.

Why the fuck you lyyyyyyin.

Why you always lyyyyyyin'-

That bold faced lie will only become more apparent as the story goes on. This bitch has plenty of agency he just likes William to take the fall for everything.

Which in a way is fair. He is a result of William's as well. ;)

Once again have reached the image cap because WHYYYY

[theragsagainstthemachine]

“MEESTER MORALES,” said Jose, “you cannot make the horse to look like the dog.”

To be honest, he said that to all of us in his Basic Drawing class that we had in our first year at the Kubert School. He taught us how to draw horses by learning how to draw dogs first.

Jose Delbo was an icon for me and I was thrilled to have him as my instructor. Most of the other students weren’t very familiar with Jose’s work, but I remember seeing a smattering of his stuff in the 80’s on Wonder Woman. He was in the same breath as Dick Giordano, Irv Novick and Frank McLaughlin. That slick 60’s style.

When I was a kid, I collected Jose’s Billy the Kid because I was a fan of westerns- having been brought up on the Lone Ranger and Tonto in syndication. Through his work, I learned to draw a Colt revolver and of course, horses.

So having Jose there in class was having a brush with greatness. I loved his class. I loved his Argentinean accent. Classes were all like this for me, but his was one class that I couldn’t disappoint the instructor. Jose was reaching into my childhood.

One day he took me outside the class. He said that I was one of the few artists that was going to make good on a career. He said I had the talent and to continue to work hard. No one else at that school said that to me. Not that I needed it, I was cocky enough, but to have it validated was gold. Then he asked me if I wanted to be his apprentice. “Take some time and think about it.” There was no time necessary. “Yes! I would love to!”

He gave me his address. Paterson NJ.

He had an apartment home that was built up, not across. There were stairs leading up to the kitchen, stairs to the bedroom and next to it his studio.

He had his table near the window and I had a table just a few feet away from him. On the radio, he played Ray Alan. We would listen, he would chuckle, and he would say how crazy he was. I was into Howard Stern, so I got how he had such an affinity for his generation’s voice although the jokes were tame by my generation’s standard.

Then at 10 am sharp, he went into his bedroom to have a siesta. “I don’t understand why Americans don’t take a siesta,” he told me. I was fine with the coffee he provided.

Initially my job was to layout his pages. He had to do two pages a day of either Transformers or Thundercats. I really enjoyed Thundercats more but I didn’t complain doing any of it.

I frustrated him because he had a very different way of storytelling than I had. My layouts had to be redrawn by him and it wasn’t long before I was finishing his layouts. He would tell me that the editors could tell when the pages switched hands, and if I was lucky, occasionally I would be allowed to go nuts on establishing shots bringing all the energy I could. He gave me that freedom. I tried to draw like him in the finishes with varying degrees of success. But to be honest, I was slowing him down.

One day I was late getting to his home. The drive was 45 minutes away from my house, and when my sister’s dog got loose, I couldn’t make up the time enough to get there.

That was it for me. I was fired. He was patient with me artistically, but being late was unforgivable.

I was crushed, but understood. I learned a valuable lesson on what kind of commitment it takes to be on time with publishers. I’m sure the sporadic nature of my help for him was too much to carry. Being late gave him the perfect excuse to be rid of me.

He was right though. I made good on my career.

In Florida I was at a convention when up comes Jose, ambling to me. “Meester Morales,” he said as I had my head down working on a commission. “Jose,” I said not looking up, “I can tell your voice from ANYWHERE!” I looked at the grinning old maestro. He was there with his wife and daughters. I stood up and greeted them in a warm embrace. He said, “You were a good student and you became a great pro.”

Oh my god. No words could have made me feel as good as those did for me.

He asked me for a drawing.

What? Was he kidding? I said of course, but only if he would draw for me Billy the Kid. He went back to his table as I started a drawing for him as well. When I was done, I walked over to him with my drawing. He handed me two sketches as well as his Billy the Kid. “I haven’t drawn Billy in years. I could barely remember him.” But it was perfect! I couldn’t believe I had an original Jose Delbo of the only character he could ever draw for me.

I handed over my drawing to him. He laughed and showed his wife. She laughed too.

It was a drawing of a dog with a saddle on it. Below I gave him a note.

“I’m not sure about this horse Jose, did I do it right?”

On this day, I learned of Jose’s passing. He was almost 90 years old. He was born ten years before my parents who also passed away recently.

I hope he tells them that I was a good student too.

I love you Maestro. You mean more to me than I ever expressed. You were a shining star to me.

My most deepest condolences to his wife Maybelle, daughters and grandchildren.

just absolutely smitten  platonically romantically whatever I just think its great how there’s just people like Macaque and Azure who just look at Wukong and just go “yup i’m gonna dedicate my life to this guy he’s so freaking cool, bro moment-“ AND THEN IG THEY PUT HIM TOO HIGH ON A PEDESTAL AND WHEN HE INEVITABLY WOBBLES THEY JUMP SHIP AND NOBODY CATCHES HIM WHEN HE FALLS I’M ASSUMING A LOT I’M JUST HECK HECK HECK THIS IS THE EXACT KINDA NONSENSE I WANT THIS IS RIDICULOUSGN;SDLKFMWEO F

Mk fr looks much calmer standing there next to Azure and i still got alarm bells going off, he’s way too used to standing next to people who want to hurt him his friends and monkey king hGLKJS;DF

“we we’re gonna change everything, it was glorious”

y

you mean you were gonna

try and fight heaven

and

overthrow the emperor

and inevitably get put back in your place

only monkey king takes the brunt of that-

SORRY STILL MAKING ASSUMPTIONS BASED ON MY JTTW KNOWLEDGE I KNOW THIS IS GONNA BE DIFFERENTNG;LSDKMFE

HANG ON

Y’know

Y’know Azure

Y’know its funny how

You seem to be the driving force behind a lot of what Monkey King ends up doing in this

You call yourself a follower but you and the group are the ones pushing for this stuff

Also wow this dude really

had an image of what he wanted

very interesting

WUKONG AND MACAQUE VIBIN FIGHTING YEAH GOOD FOR YOU TWO MACAQUE LOOKS LIKE HE’S HAVING FUN HGSDKFLAEFW

HEY AS LONG AS HE’S WITH HIS BFF RIGHT

:’D

…

……….

………………

h

hang on

gimme a second

,

w h a t

hold up hang on gimme a second

what

okay so i see

they didn’t want to

bring Buddha into it so they’re making monkey king… f…ail??? against… the Jade Emperor… who he didn’t… fight?? In jttw if I’m recalling correctly…

okay interesting interesting not sure how i feel about that interesting  did he even actually pick a fight buddha in this or is that just a throwaway reference line from the first season?

heck hang on not sure how i’m feeling about this i need another sec

I AM LITERALLY ONLY FOUR MINUTES IN COME ON

kay so

“Monkey king failed” uhuh, that’s cute, why’d you hype up a little monkey guy to lead a battle and go fight your boss huh?

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

NNNNNNNNOT SURE HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS APPROACH IF THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED

Cause like, Monkey King’s whole thing is that nobody could really touch him, he doesn’t really fail and that’s what makes him such a huge problem for heaven in jttw, he just keeps getting bigger and more annoying until Buddha has to step in and slap five stacked mountain on top of him

.

hmmmmm, the further we get into this actually the more suspicious i’m getting of the approach they’re taking on monkey kings character

I’m all for reimagining and new gen monkey Mk now i’m on board with that cause they did it really neat and i love how it feels but like…. Sun Wukong means a lot to me as a character and a lot to a lot of people as more than that, and I thought they were doing pretty good with it but i’m kindaaaa hmmmmmmmmm

HMMMM

I dunno man ig I gotta hold my final thoughts on that till I at least finish the ep here but hGJSDFKLSADF

WE’LL SEE HOW I FEEL  

pressing play

WHEEZINGSDLKF

I LOVE HOW THIS

TINY GROUP OF FOUR + MONKEY KING THOUGHT THEY COULD TAKE DOWN HEAVEN

pointing and laughing at Azure

WOW ITS INTERESTING HOW IF THEY MAKE MONKEY KING NOT ACTUALLY AS STRONG IN THIS IT MEANS EVERYONE IS LITERALLY CONSTANTLY PUTTING HIM ON A PEDESTAL AT ALL TIMES EXPECTING MORE FROM HIM THAN WHAT HE CAN GIVE AND PUNSHING HIM WHEN HE DOESN’T MEET THEIR EXPECTATIONS WOWWWW INTERESTING

s

swk now

yeilded to the

okay so no Buddha then

hMMMMMMMMMMMM

H M

I DUNNO GUYS

NOT SURE HOW I’M FEELING ABOUT THIS

Also interesting how its kinda being portrayed as one after another, like… did the mountain even happen??? was there no mountain?? guys if there was no mountain i’m like… i’m actually gonna be upset that’s such a huge part of his backstory over 500 years under it and they’re just gonna… take that out???

.

hm

tsk

I dunno guys not sure how i feel about this

.

Okay so

they got away scott free??

Monkey King gets the circlet slapped on and these guys just get dropped back down like they’re not a problem?? like Azure didn’t used to be one of them? if anything he should have gotten an extra harsh slap on the wrist in the form of like, death and reincarnation like straight up

hm.

So there is the chance of like, unreliable narrator still here I’m just…

if this is it, i’m not sure if I’m happy with it, i’m kinda… really disappointed? Like. yeah i don’t know

what the heck is this????

okay so they made a house

wowww

a

a house

dang

so

cool

looking so happy with each other

totally abandoning monkey king

who did all that for you

wowwww

Well first off no respect for these losers

and second off NOT SURE IF I LIKE THIS PLOT

OHHH WAIT THAT’S FUN THO

Okay hang on

so

lol

ur telling me

you tried to overthrow the literal heavens

and got away no problem

but you build a house and now its a problem

this is…

this kinda feels like poor storytelllinnngggg mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I’m really hoping this is the unreliable narrator thing and not the actual thing they’re going with on this show cause if it is I’m kinda out

like

:T

hm I don’t want to be out this show means a lot to me though

Kay well, obvious Azure at least is painting Wukong as becoming the villain of the story, oh he let this happen, or he gave himself up, oh he failed us blah blah blah, no buddy you failed him, you got him involved in something he never needed to be involved in and wow okay hang on if this is the story they’re going with this really means Wukong seriously is just a silly goofy guy. No murder, no antagonist arch, no super powerful chaos monkey, just a guy who loves his friends so much he’d do anything for them, and Azure used that and abandoned him and then he got a circlet slapped on him, tortured into doing what the celestials wanted and now Azure’s acting like he’s the bad guy

yeeeeeesh

this is rough times for the monkey

still not sure i like it, bUT MOVING ON

WELL OKAY AZURE SURE YOU GOT IMPRISONED IG BUT AT LEAST HE DIDN’T KILL YOU

well ig Tang Monk wouldn’t really be on board with that but whatever

Sheesh though this Monkey King has it… really rough. Like, JTTW Monkey King, a lot of what happens is his own pride and a bit of ignorance making it possible. And like, everyone assuming things about him right off the bat and people exaggerating his crimes to the Jade emperor at times, but this Monkey King seems to have had everyone ever close to him abuse him, use him, and abandon him the moment he fails them like dang

No wonder he has communication issues

are you kidding me we’re only five minutes in I don’t have enough braincells for thisGL;KAMEF

Peng fr like don’t even my guy it ain’t worth it- BOI YOU AIN'T WORTH IT

Also bruh why  you trying so hard to convince Mk of this?

SNORTS

WHEEZES

POINTS AND LAUGHS

“he took the only friends he had from me” Bro you took his life from him, made him a target of the celestials, he was just chilling

boy man if this is the real plot point Azure lion SUCKS bIG time

OH WOW

STILL

USING PEOPLE HUH AZURE

STILL

GASLIGHTING THEM INTO DOING YOUR DIRTY WORK HUH

LOOKS ALL OPEN AND HAPPY

AND HJIS FRIENDS LOOK READY TO MURDER

ALSO BRUH MK’S FACE JUST

yeesh man this is a rough episode holy moly

oh yeah no i hate his guts y’all

ready to punch his face

gosh dang it i was so ready for Wukong to have a real good friend moment but I JUST HAD TO BE RIGHT IG

Yeah Sandy on the ground very hurt

just mHMM

“EtErNaLy gRaTeFuL” sure buddy

SNORTS

LAUGHS

OH SURE BUDDY

AND HOW DO YOU PLAN ON TAKING DOWN THE CELESTIAL REALM JUST YOU THREE WHEN YOU COULDN’T EVEN DO IT WITH MONKEY KING- ohhhh the ink stuff right? right? the scroll? that’s a good weapon for that possibly

also heck bro this dude S U C K S

oh well that’s sweet at least

“until this is over”

at least sort of implies he intends to let him out after

the whole “better to ask forgiveness then permission” way of thinking ig

oh I’ll just do what i want to and use who i need to and they’ll forgive me when its all over and they’ll see what i wanted was right all along! :D

WOW WHAT A GREAT VILLIAIN MOMENT ACTUALLY NICELY DONE

HANDSHAKE YEAH

ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE USED THE MONKEYS

BUT ALSO MK PLS I’M SO WORRIED FOR YOUR SAFETY NOW

DARN FREAKING RIGHT YOU GIVE HIM BACK HIS MOTHERFREAKING MENTOR YOU PIECE OF GARBAGE LION BAG

Oh actually i’m kinda hype over Mk losing it cause Monkey Kings in trouble, we usually imagine like, Wukong going berserk for Mk but if Mk’s allowed to go bananas (stereotypical monkey pun intended) then I’m gonna really happy, I dunno if Wukong’s ever had someone going berserk for him before that’s nice ;-;

“What is this child?” THE GUY WHOS ABOUT TO KICK YOUR WISECRACK

“CaReFuL bOy mY pAtIenCe iS nOt EnDlEsS”

sorry I’m very salty rn HNGLKSADJFAWENF

;-;

oh man dude actually this kid

has big major abandonment issues heck

people just keep taking his mentor from him heck, yeah and his friends, heck

ACTUALLY YEAH HUGE FAN OF

MK SAYING NO TO THAT

AIN’T NO GETTING PUSHED AROUND ALTHOUGH I HAVEN’T SEEN HOW THIS ACTUAL FIGHT WILL GO JUST GIVE HIM BACK HIS FREAKING MENTOR THAT’S HIS SHIFU WHO MEANS SO MUCH TO HIM AND JUST CAUSE YOU APPARENTLY ABANDONED MONKEY KING DOESN’T MEAN HE WILL SO STEP ASIDE OLD MAN

Actually I’d love to see Monkey King at least get emotional over Mk fighting that hard for him y’know? like dang must feel nice to be… not exactly needed but wanted like that, like I’d take on whoever i needed to to get you back, Wukong’s done that for so many people its neat to have it done back to him

okay I wasn’t sure i liked the whole backstory change a bit but ngl the way its playing out so far ain’t too bad Monkie Kid may change a lot of things but what they do change they handle fairly well usually STILL GONNA WAIT TILL THE END OF EP AT LEAST FOR FINAL FEEDBACK

ONWARD TO POSSIBLY VERY SHORT BATTLE BUT MY GOSH I HOPE ITS LONGER AND MK IS ACTUALLY A THREAT TO THEM DESPERATELY OH THEY’RE PROBBALY GONNA COMPARE HIM TO MONKEY KING OR SOEMTHIGN HECK

Well

Y’know

okay well first of all HAHAHAHAH FAST MONKEY FAST MONKEY DARK RIGHT HECK YOU AZURE HOW’S THAT FOR SPEED YOU ACTUALLY LOOKED STARTLED MWAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

And Secondly he actually seems… I don’t know if he’s concerned monkey king will get out or concerned for Monkey king in general cause he does seem kinda worried heck Y’know bro friend who cares but is still horrible to you but uses caring as an excuse for that is such a neat story thing y’know?? like?? heck dude

ALRIGHT I AM OVERANALYZING THE CRAP OUT OF THIS EP ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I’VE GONE THIS IN DEPTH WE’RE ONLY SIX MINTUES IN PROPS TO YOU IF YOU MAKE IT TO THE END OF WHATEVER THE HECK THIS RAMBLE IS

AHAHAHA

MK FINE

JUST

DONT’ EVEN SEE HIM DOWN

HE’S A FAST LAD I AM A BIG FAN OF THIS

HE’S SO FAST MY GODS

CANT’ TOUCH THIS

DOO DOO DA DOOOO DA DO DA DO

CANT’ TOUCH THIS

Kay sorry I need to go back and re-watch all that speed frame by frame hang on

My gosh is Mk powerful

Well, Y’know its nice how close the brotherhood is, minus Wukong and Macaque ig

wonder how long that’ll last

heck man Mk doesn’t even crash into anything or fall when he gets punched back by Peng he just stops and is covered by dust, standing there, this dude is HYPE

;-; heck

monkey mk ;-;

he’s beautiful ;-;

I love how they had Mei attack Azure first to like, have something to compare Mk’s speed to, like making Azure out to be super fast, and then Mk swoops in and the dude hasn’t landed a hit yet

.

the scrolls gonna break isn’t it

OH WELL

lets see

MK’S GOOD HECK

TRIPS THAT MAN VERY WELL WITH A SWEEPING LEG KICK SPINNY THING CROUCHED DOWN HE’S AWESOME I’M LOVING THIS

HOW’D HE GET UP IN THE SKY

WHEEZING

WOWWWW

THIS GUYS

AFRAID OF MONKEY KING HUH

.

Y’know I think it says a lot how he envisions him now

Like flashing from Mk to monkey king there

.

hang on i need to go look at shadowplay really quick

yeah

huh

interesting

wait i need to check the winning side too hang on

HUH

INTERESTING

Well they both kinda see Wukong as detached emotionally and cold, but Azure sees him with the circlet on and Macaque sees him decked out in armour with no circlet

I’m not sure if that means anything I’m just kinda fascinated by that.

Bruh sure does look at least, some sort of panicked seeing him tho that sure is something hmhm

HECK

okay i’m feeling better about this

apparently might not have mountain trauma but he got free relationship trauma and Azure did too it seems I’d love for him to be in denial and secretly blaming himself for all of it that would be AWESOME i doubt that’ll be it but i’m just MHMHMHM FUN TIMES

ALSO HA CALLED IT

SCROLL BROKEN

.

hmmm

HMMMM

So I’m p sure this means inky’s getting out at least and destroying stuff

But does this means Wukongs semi-permanently trapped?

Also Azure doesn’t like to take responsibility for things so i’m waiting for the “look what you’ve done Mk” or “look what you made me do”  from him hGL;SAJDF

GOOD JOB JERKFACE

YOU TRAPPED YOUR BRO IN THE SCROLL BECAUSE YOU PANICKED IN THE FACE OF A LITTLE MONKEY GOOD JOB

Also heck imagine Mk monkey fighting after he’s stopped glitching

Get away from our monkey man ;-;

.

oh yeah

Wukong’s trapped in there now huh

Even Peng looks

.

yeah

heck okay then

Well I will simply be devastated if Wukong isn’t freed in the special, I assume we won’t be seeing him until at least then

HECK WHY DO I DESPERATELY WANT MACAQUE BACK AND TELLING MK AZURE’S FULL OF CRAP

“tHiS iSn’T wHaT i wAnTeD”

tough buddy it’s your fault

ha ha

“what you’ve done” THERE IT ISSSSSS

BLAMING MK

THE KID IS LITERALLY JUST SO TRUAMATIZED AND WANTS HIS SHIFU BACK HECK MK REALLY GOING THROUGH IT

Azure really sad about that huh

WELL GOOD LOSER

I HOPE YOU FEEL TERRIBLE

THAT WAS SO MUCH

I’M SO READY TO FISTFIGHT AZURE YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA

WHAT A GUY

SAYIGN ALL THE RIGHT THINGS

BUT ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS YOU POMPUS BALL OF FUZZ

okay heck before i

heck that was a lot holy crap

godspeed if you’ve made it this far nothing but respect for you guys that read through all this

OKAY

somehow monkie kid does plot lines that i go “oh i hope they don’t do that” but when they do they handle it so well that I just end up loving it anyway absolutely insane

STIIIILLLLL not totally sure i’m a fan of what they’ve done with Wukongs backstory but ig we still don’t have all the pieces, but heck dude Wukong really is just some guy in this if what i think is happening is happening. Just a silly goofy guy doing his best, maybe a few shenanigans, gets in with the wrong crowd who hype him into doing something terrible and put him on a pedestal and then he falls and they blame him for it and nobody catches him

looks at Macaque

unless-

Look man all I’m saying is he seemed pretty dedicated he had to have at least done SOMETHING else

heck I am a jumble of thoughts rn can’t get my head straight heck heck

heck okay well

very much enjoyed that episode

Was filled with rage

no one since Macaque in ses 1 and 2 (and a little bit 3 ig) has filled me with such rage I hope Azure walks into a wall

heck that was so much

my brain feels fried

i don’t think i’ve drank anything since this morning heck

how the heck are they gonna do thisGLKASMDF

I MISS WUKONG

I’M SO GLAD WE GOT TO SEE HIM ONCE

I JUST

HECK

I HOPE WE GET HIM BACK IN THE SPECIAL CAUSE I KNOW WE AIN’T GETTING HIM BACK IN THE EPS THAT WOULD BE TOO SOON

BUT IF HE ISN’T BACK UNTIL NEXT SEASON I WILL BE IN AGONY

M AN

WHAT DO I EVEN SAY AFTER ALL THAT THERE’S SO MUCH

STILL NOT SURE HOW I FEEL

GENUINELY THE MOUNTAIN IS SUCH A HUGE PART OF WUKONGS TRUAMA IF THEY TAKE THAT AWAY HE REALLY IS JUST

HECK HE’S JUST A DUDE

HE’S JUST A SILLY DUDE WHO WANTED TO HAVE FUN WITH HIS FRIENDS IN MONKIE KID THAT’S INSANE

Its okay Wukong, we’ve replaced your mountain trauma with a mountain of betrayal abuse and being used by the people you care about most trauma!

ALSO AZURE’S WHOLE MOTTO REALLY IS ASK FOR FORGIVENESS LATER TAKE WHAT YOU WANT NOW HUH

HUGE FAN OF HIM PANICKING LASHING OUT AND HURTING THE ONE PERSON HE CLAIMS MEANS EVERYHTING TO HIM, HUGE FAN OF HOW DEVESTATED HE WAS THAT HIS TERRIBLE PLAN AND AWFUL ACTIONS LEAD TO THAT BUT ALSO HATE HIM FOR HOW QUICK HE RECOVERED WHAT ARE YOU MAD ABOUT LOSER THIS IS YOUR FAULT

LIKE HECK IS HE THE ONE WHO PUT THE SCROLL IN WUKONGS PLACE??? DID WUKONG EVEN KNOW ABOUT IT???

WAS HE GUARDING IT??

MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS YET AGAIN

GOTTA LOVE THIS SHOW

KAY FINAL THOUGHTS LETS WRAP THIS UP BEFORE I GO INSANE

Still not quite sure how I feel about their approach to Wukong I love it because it makes sense for his LMK character but I also hate it because it takes away the part of him that makes him complex and reduces him down to like 90% of what he does being because someone else told him to do it rather than his own pride and desire for things and peoples issues with him, but that also is part of what makes it fit with this Wukong, glad they at least kept the circlet, don’t like how quick he came around to accepting it, unless someone threatened to kill his bros if he didn’t so he agreed to it to save their lives and THATS why Azure and the others got away scott free no problem, and then by then he experienced the power of the circlet so he had no choice but to seal them away, or he got bitter heck i don’t know Wukong’s character feels like its getting such a short end of the stick rn and I love it but hate it but like it but dislike it but HECK ITS JUST SO SLIGHTLY TO THE LEFT ITS THROWING ME OFF BUT THEY HANDLED IT REALLY WELL, IF ANYONE ELSE TRIED THIS I’D CRINGE BUT MONKIE KID HAS SUCH GOOD WRITERS AND ANIMATION THEY MAKE IT WORK SOMEHOW AND I’M OFFENDED BY IT HGBDFSFASF HECK DUDE

I’M SO CONFLICTED

I adore Azure’s characterization though, he’s so funky and so in denial and I actually can’t wait to see what happens with him and if he turns on his other bros, cause a plot line with them seeing he’s kinda insane would be DOPE Wise old elephant can’t follow a lunatic for long right? How he treats Mk is very interesting because he does seem to see him like a nephew of some kind or at least thinks he should care about him, hence the “mercy” and focusing only on him rather than, like, Mei, who’s much more thrilled and looked up to him for a bit there. Cause Mk’s Wukong’s student so that makes him important to Azure. HE’S SO STRANGE AND WEIRD AND FUNKY I HATE LIKE HIM HE’S GREAT I HOPE HE TRIPS ON A CHAIR HECK HE’S LIKE IF MACAQUE WAS SELF RIGHTEOUS AND BUFF OR SOEMTHIGN But dang he’s so interesting I want him obliterated I WANT WUKONG TO LAUNCH HIM INTO THE SUN AND SPEAKING OF WHICH

MK LOSING OVER WANTING WUKONG BACK GIVE ME BACK MY SHIFU IS EVERYTHIGN TO ME, like I so desperately want Wukong having an “i never wanted this for you, I tried to keep things from you so this wouldn’t happen” moment with Mk because man did that monkey try hard to keep Mk away from the stuff that would do to him what everything that happened did to Wukong- HECK HE’S JUST SOME GUY IN MONKIE KID YOU GUYS, LIKE HE AIN’T THE OLD MAFIA BOSS OR OLD DEMON HE’S JUST SOME MONKEY GUY WHO LOVED THE MONKEYS HE RULED OVER, LOVED THE PEOPLE WHO CALLED THEMSELVES HIS BROHTERS AND LIKE HECK DUDE I DON’T KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THAT EITHER BUT THIS IS A WHOLE NEW AVENUE FOR ANGST THAT I HAVEN’T EXPLORED YET AND ACTUALLY I’M PRETTY STOKED FOR THAT

Pigsy will forever be my number 1, I am never gonna recover from whatever the heck this was, wish me luck processing NOW I KNOW WHY EVERYONE WAS HYPING SEASON EIGHT

OKAY I HAVE MORE THOUGHTS BUT WE’LL BE HERE ALL DAY IF I CONTINUE AND IT’S ALREADY BEEN THREE FREAKING HOURS SO KNOX OUT I’M GONNA GO STICK MY HEAD IN A SNOWBANK

[moxielynx]

So as I know little to nothing about Epic The Musical(only listening to snippets of like, 4 to 5 songs-) I really wanna know more about it and the AU you made with it and Tetrax-

Oh my god it’s happening it’s happening it’s finally happening

everything is under the keep reading cause this is going to be a LOOONNG post

OKOK SO basically the epic au follows the musical almost exactly, story wise, with some kinda major changes

I wrote about it all on my priv twitter then transferred everything over to a txt document so excuse the fact that it’s formatted as a twitter thread cause it literally came from one!!!!

Also I made a couple of changes ever since the Circes Saga was released and there will continue to be changes until the musical is fully completed so I will list all the changes after this

SO CHANGES!!!!!!

1. Ares has a name now, it’s Orion!!

2. I’ve decided that all the gods are just gonna be named after the actual gods they’re supposed to represent, I can’t be bothered to come up with a bunch of new names for them

3. In the "Circes Saga" part Circes, instead of threatening tetrax to never return she helps him get to the underworld, having a new respect for him cause not only was he able to resist her power but also he tries to show as much respect to her as possible by kneeling and begging for his crew to be set free instead of resorting to trying to kill her

4. Tetrax meets Clockwork directly instead of having a dream with him in it since Circes helps him go to the underworld

HERE ARE SOME OF THE DESIGNS!!! The first 3 are Aeolus, Circes and Hermes and the other one is just concepts for the others, the designs are all subject to change

ive also started an animatic for one of the god games songs!!!! its still only a ""storyboard"" so stuff is messy+needs to be adjusted/added but heres what it looks like atm!!! i used this animatic to practice drawing azmuth and orion since i hadnt drawn them at all prior to making this, i hope that i can finish this by making a cleaned up version

i hope i can make animatics on at least "The Horse and the Infant", "Just a Man", and "Done For" in the future

i genuinely dont think ive ever put this much time, thought and effort into an au, tetrax makes me so happy and these songs makes me so happy too, tysm for asking about the au i love love loooovvvee talking about it

playlist of all released songs !!!!! playlist of all the unreleased/unfinished songs!!! (that i talk about here in this post, theres a BUNCH of other unfinished songs yall should check out as well)

extra art of it :3

Sception Reads Cass Cain #28

Batgirl (2000) #12 writer: Chuck Dixon pencils: Dale Eaglesham

Batgirl (2000) takes a break from the usual creative team for a tie in to the Batman Crossover of the month, Officer Down. We've seen Eaglesham draw Cass a few times now & he's always solid. Dixon wrote for Cass back in Robin 73, which wasn't the best showing for her. Better this time, if more reliant on narration blocks than I'd like. Kind of odd that this is a 'tie in' rather than part of the story proper. Like they didn't want people to feel they had to buy this issue? I'd say it was a slight against Cass, except it's not like she was kept out of the rest of the crossover, she's in like half the issues.

But the fact that this issue is partially segregated from the rest of the crossover is convenient for me anyway, as it gives me an excuse to just look at this issue on its own this week, while next week we can bundle together the rest of Cass's appearances in the cross over.

Off the top, I have to say I really like the art in this issue. Eaglesham's fast cementing his place as my second favorite Cass artist. And not just because I like the way he draws Cass as Batgirl, but just, I mean, look at this page here, with all the details and personality packed into the scene. Kudos also to Jason Wright, the colorist for this issue, for really capturing this warm cozy homely interior, almost nostalgia-sepia-toned, while everything outside is cold and wet and blue. A single page that really captures Cassandra's isolation. At this point in her story she's basically living as Batgirl 24/7. No alter ego, no normal life, no friends. Not even really any connections apart from her somewhat fraught relationship with Barbara and her extra fraught relationship with Bruce. To see Cass on the outside looking in at the sort of connections that seem so impossibly distant, especially after the run in with her father last issue, it really works.

I also love these panels of Cass navigating Gotham, moving around like a shadow, often in the background or in silhouette. Bits like that convey the spookiness of this Batgirl a lot more than other artists who give her an angry face or emphasize the stitching on her mask or the like.

Love that panel of her rubbing her chin, thinky face clearly visible through the mask. Batman's out, so Cass decides to start investigating on her own. It's nice to see her doing the detective part of the bat-person vigilante job, rather than just leaving that part to Barbara, and Dixon does a good job of walking the reader through her thought process.

He is relying on narration blocks a bit more than I'd like, but he keeps them short and terse. Cass can talk now, but English is still a second language, and that comes across pretty well, imo. I was very critical of Dixons last showing with Cass, but he's honestly doing a solid job with her here, and as much as I don't care for them in general, I think the thought bubbles are helping. Some writers just have a hard time wrapping their heads around a non-verbal character. I'd imagine even just a little bit of language makes thing a world easier.

That said, not to beat a dead horse here, but with Cass speaking a few words here and there like this, they could have believably gotten her to this point through her own effort by studying with Barbara, no psychics required. Just saying.

I guess it hadn't really been decided how much Cass's new speaking ability had translated to reading yet? It seems from these panels that she can read at least a little, at least enough to recognize names and dates as such, which is more than she can do later on. But clearly she's not comfortable or adept enough at reading to get much out of the police files beyond Catwoman maybe being involved, and you can feel her frustration here when she abandons the papers to finally just go ask Babs for help.

Good stuff.

Of course, Babs isn't home either.

Again, I really like the way Eaglesham draws Cass. I like it more each time he shows up in this retrospective. Love little head tilt in the first panel, love the cape in the second panel there, very dracula-esque. Love that we can kind of see her face through the mask, makes her feel like a person.

Oh, you poor random doofus goons.

There's an ok fight scene at one of Selina's safehouse, albeit against no-name mooks. The panels are well drawn, the fight's perfectly readable, but it still feels pretty arbitrary, like hitting a minimum action quota for the issue.

Regardless, Selina isn't there, and the issue ends with Cass abandoning her solo efforts to go find the others.

As an event tie in the overall issue feels... pretty unnecessary. Nothing is really discovered, the story isn't advanced at all, nothing much happens. Makes sense that it wasn't an official part of the crossover, though you're left kind of wondering what the point was at all.

Even so, I kind of like the issue regardless. Eaglesham does a spectacular job with the art all the way through, and Dixon seems to have a much firmer handle on the character this time around. We get some solid panels of Cass trying to do some detective work on her own, something we rarely see, and the excellent bit early on of her flittering around through the city like a shadow. That sense of isolation from the first page really permeates the entire issue even if if the plot never touches on it, with Cass seeking out the only two people she really knows only for both of them to be out.

So yeah, even if nothing that happens in the issue really matters much, even if it doesn't really tell a stand alone story per se, I still like this one a lot.

Silly Game Time: WE RIDE AT DAWN INTO GLORIOUS BATTLE! But unfortunately ... the enemy's wizard turned all our horses into other animals.

Use a random *letter* generator, then look up an animal that starts with that letter to find out which animal is now your mount. Post a picture! On a scale of 1 to 10, how well is our now less-than-glorious battle going to go for you?

Hey hello! I literally can't remember the last time somebody sent me an ask that wasn't a bot lol I got T, and honestly there were a few I tossed around. Tiger seemed an obvious choice, and tarantula or toad could have been fun- I heavily considered the Thorny Devil on account of the fact they look like dragons.... But I had to stay true to my heart. So I went with Turritopsis dohrnii, also known as the immortal jellyfish. They look like weird little space ships with a little orange guy in the middle to me.

I'm also assuming that this wizard can make him Big Size, and also, like, float out of water...because otherwise this will absolutely not work. So assuming that, on a scale of 1-10 for how things are going for me? Probably like.......... a 2? Pros: they have stinging tentacles, and are biologically immortal. Cons: basically everything else. They don't exactly have brains, so it's not gonna be the brightest little guy, and they kind of just mindlessly float around, so even steering it would be pretty bad probably. Also, even though it's biologically immortal, it can still be killed, and the "immortality" bit basically just means if it's in bad conditions, like if they're starving, or injured, or the temperature changes to fast, it can change back into a polyp, restarting its life cycle. They can also make clones of themselves?? So I guess I could add that to the pros. But all in all? Terrible steed, absolutely not doing a good job at anything other than maybe zapping anyone that gets too close. However, I think they're neat, so I'm keeping him.

(Yes this was also an excuse to draw this... yes that background is a CSP asset I have work in the morning)

[thosearentcrimes]

Ršaka: Is there a fucking war on again? I haven't sat down in weeks, just running from exhausted horse to exhausted chapar and back, watering them and wiping off the foam all day every day. Imaniš: Oh? Maybe there is, I haven't seen much difference here. But if they're in that much of a hurry then I suppose I wouldn't. Ršaka: It's always the same thing with them. "Knave, hurry up! This tablet must be in Šuš tonight, the fate of the empire depends on it!" It always does somehow, the entire empire balanced precariously on a handful of clay tablets. How do they know? There could be anything written on there. Imaniš: Imagine you're a commander sent with your troops to garrison an unruly city or something, you've left your favorite concubine or your lord's wife behind at Šuš, and you have a way to send her letters and have them arrive the same day. Two in three of those tablets have to be bad erotic poetry, right? Ršaka: You think they ever get the erotic poetry mixed up with the military reports and tax excuses? Imaniš: Yeah, man, it's probab- oh sorry I have a customer hold on Imaniš walks over to the other side of the room Imaniš: What will you be having, sir? Tabnit: A beer, and stew if you have it. Imaniš: Certainly. You're in luck, today's stew is lamb. Ršaka: It's good soup! Imaniš here is a magician. Exit Imaniš. Tabnit: Oh, you come by often? Traveling artisan or merchant? Ršaka: Neither, actually. I'm stableboy over at the khaneh next door. You're a traveling artisan, I suppose? Tabnit: I suppose it was rather obvious? Ršaka: Men judge others by their own experience. Tabnit: And a merchant wouldn't spare a thought to us. You've caught me. Enter Imaniš with a bowl of soup and a mug of beer. Ršaka: What is it you make, anyway? Tabnit, in between gulps of beer and soup: So you know swords, right? If you want to be anybody in this world, you need to have a sword. Well, they're darned expensive. So I figured out a way to make basically the same thing but cheaper and easier to make. Ršaka: What's "basically the same thing" as a sword? Tabnit: Well, a sword is basically a shaped chunk of metal with a handle built or wrapped around one end. But metal is expensive. So what I've developed is a shaped chunk of plaster with metal wrapped around, in this case, the other end. Lighter, cheaper, and just as good for most purposes. Imaniš: I'm sorry, how is that just as good? Surely it would break on the first blow? Tabnit: Well, if you think about it, any time you're actually hitting something with the sword, things have already gone very very badly for you. The point of the sword is to show it off, not to actually use it. And my sword is just as good for that main purpose. Ršaka: It's a sword. It's for killing people. That's what a sword does. Tabnit: Hardly! When's the last time you've seen someone pull out a sword? Ršaka: Why, just last week! Tabnit: And when's the last time you've seen a sword used to do what "a sword does". Imaniš: That must have been last spring, right? When the road counters found the guy who kept making those indecent drawings of the satrap. Ršaka: All right, I see your point. If I needed to carry a sword I might well buy one of yours, so what's got you on the road like this and not in a nice comfortable workshop? Tabnit: Well, you see, I didn't actually tell the customers what the deal with the swords was. Fortunately none of the people coming after me had a useful weapon, but I still had to skip town quick. Next time I'll register myself as a sculptor. Maybe I should have a scribe write me a disclaimer, too.

Hello! I recently saw your art of Ghali, Drephl and Rleiph, and decided to finally try out making wiki pages! I plan on making all three of them before adding them, but I have a few questions on about them. (Im pretty sure that you wrote the fic, but please correct me if I’m wrong)

first off, the fic is AMAZING, I cried multiple times while reading it, and everything goes together so perfectly there’s too much to talk about so I’ll stop here before it gets too long.

1) On Ghali, I wanted to double check that she took the last name Shims, because at some point it refers to the family as “the shims”

2) on Frihl, does he keep the last name Shims, or take his husband’s name?

3) can I say that Rleiph has pale speckles in her physical description?

4) could you give me more insight on Ghali’s , Drephl’s and Rleiph’s personalities? I personally struggle with describing those myself.

5) are there names for Drephl and Frihl’s parents, as I would like for them to be in the relationships category.

6) same for Rleiph’s girlfriend. Also, does she have a physical appearance? I’d love to draw the two of them together.

7) WEREWOLF CENTAUR. Amazing idea. What does the kid look like? I know that they’re described as a foal, but WHAT IS THEY JUST HAD A WOLF HALF INSTEAD OF A HORSE HALF, OR A WOLF HALF DURING FULL MOONS. I would love to know things like their skin tones and hair color too. (And coat) also thank you for all these centaurs, there isn’t even a catagory on the wiki for them yet.

8) what kind of clothes does everyone wear?

9) I know that Drephl and Ghali probably just went to a courtroom and signed some papers, but I really want to draw Drephl standing on a stool with her under an arch, where they just hug. This is also so I can mess around with possible wedding traditional clothing during that time period.

10) what is the name of Drephl and Ghali’s grandchild? The werewolf one?

Thank you for this amazing fic! Loved the art you made, and this will be very embarrassing if you didn’t write the fic!



Putting this under read more;;

Ok first of all. omg??? that's so cool what the hell!!! i'm so happy you liked my fic so much???

1) Yeah, she becomes a Shims

2) I think he takes his husband's name (which i don't have yet)

3) I forgot to give her some white in her coat in the art lol, but i decided to work that in; she's born with just a brown coat, but some white speckles start appearing as she grows older :3

4) They honestly don't have much, yet; the style i wrote in makes it really hard to add Character and Personality other than just stated facts like "she likes hiking" and "she's a computer programmer", sorry

5) Not yet, sorry

6)

7/10) I want to give them at least 2-3 kids so i can actually make them all different, though i imagine they probably have 5-8 year age differences cus raising just one is chaotic and hard enough lol. someone made really good art of their kid!!! (i've come up w the names Phil, Lei, and Majil so far) (j pronounced like (consonant) y)

8) currently i've just been drawing them in some clothes from our time cus i haven't had the motivation&energy necessary to figure out the Fashion of their time, but i can say that the blanket??? dress?? things the centaurs wear is like. actual clothing they wear in their time period&place

9) I love that so much. also, it honestly makes a lot of sense for them to hold an actual celebration; your wedding is basically the only time in your life where you have an excuse to gather every single person you're close to in one place for a big party (aside from your funeral but uh. yeah.) their marriage was meant as the point where they no longer cared what anyone else thought bc they were so secure in their meaning to each other, so i love the idea of them going all out and then just hugging.

also behold! look what i found from way back when i was writing the fic :)

[twotangledsisters]

Every Tangled the Series Fic I've got in fic "folder" right now!

So, I often reference fics I'm 'working on' or 'random ideas' I have lying around.

Here is a quick list of EVERYTHING I have:

Inside the Tangled Sisters AU

The main series: not gonna list titles because spoilers but obviously that's priority number one, always at least 30 chapters ahead, got scenes written you won't see for a looong time!

The Three Disciples: A prequel fic that follows Demanitus, Zhan Tiri, and, obviously, their three Disciples. It shows Corona before the merger with Saporia, shows ancient magic and ancient science. But most of all it shows that nobody is born evil, but how the choices we make can lead us down darker and darker paths.

A scene:

Zhanna was mixing together two elements when she heard the ringing of a bell indicating somebody had entered her lab. She didn't hesitate to pull a level that soon covered her desk with a mist which would hide her from the human eye so she could keep working without addressing the newcomer.

"Hello?" A male voice she'd not heard before, followed by footsteps. "Is Zhanna here? My name's Demanitus, I'm a Master of Magic from Koto. I was told could find Coroa's head scientist here?"

Zhanna rolled her eyes. A magician! Though magic did intrigue her, most magicians lacked the basic knowledge of science to collaborate with the likes of her.

"I know you're there." His voice came from the doorway separating the entrance and the room she was in.

She spun around to face him. "How? What type of magic forgoes my mist?"

A chuckle. "Oh, I can't see you. But if what I hear about you is true and you're as smart as they say, you wouldn't leave your door unlocked and lab unattended."

After a moment, Zhanna switched the level, and the mist was sucked into the vents. "Clever..." Smarter than the magic users she'd worked for in the past. "You have five minutes to give me a proposal, starting one minute ago."

The Adventurer and the Prince: Following how Arianna arrived at Corona, why she decided to stay, how she slowly fell for the crowned prince and would eventually become queen of Corona by Frederic's side. It features mainly a young Frederic, Arianna and Cap. They go on adventures, learn about politics and build stronger and stronger bonds.

A scene:

“I quit! I can’t do this! I can’t, that prince is useless, he would rather die than face his fear of horses, but I can’t tell the king that and if I don’t get results soon, he’ll have my head!” “So you’re just going to flee the kingdom? Like a coward!” “Like a man who sees reason!” And the man left in a huff atop his own horse, leaving the stablemaster stuck with five horses and terrible news to deliver to the king. Every possible teacher had tried, only he remained, and he knew it was an unreachable task. Arianna looked at Sandy, the mare huffed in her face and gestured towards the window. Arianna understood the desire to get back on the road, back into the world and on another adventure but… her mind went back to Prince Frederic. The tears he’s shred on the bridge, the blood on his hands, and the words of warning he’d given her as though he’d lost himself long before her arrival. “Excuse me…” she held out a hand to draw the attention of the stablemaster. “I couldn’t help but overheat that you are perhaps looking for a new teacher for riding? I am quite the expert and, well, nobody is unteachable.” “Hired.” No questions asked, this man was desperate. Arianna smiled as she shook her head. “You start tomorrow, first thing, palace garden. You’re teaching Prince Frederic of Corona.”

The Making of a Thief: A prequel following how Eugene became the man the girls meet in the tower. From the "adoption incident" to getting involved with The Baron and his relationship with Stalyan. It has its sad moments, but it also has plenty of fun little adventures.

A scene:

Flynn found Caine pacing in the garden, her hands behind her back and her face scrunched up. “Finally Rider!” she grabbed his arm and tried to drag him further away from the mansion but Flynn just pulled his arm away, it wasn’t difficult, the thirteen-year-old girl wasn’t much shorter than him but she was skinnier and her talents did not lie in her muscle, she huffed before lowering her volume. “I have a job.” “Yeah, so do I. It’s called following orders and avoiding certain death.” “One worth the risk.” “Nothing is worth that risk.” “Hear me out,” Caine begged. “Equis castle, there’s a way to break in there.” “Equis?” He laughed. “You’re insane.” “Is it insane to want to steal riches worth more than that mansion?” She gestured to the large home of their boss. “Riches that could pay off our debts and grant us the freedom I know you so desire?” Flynn wanted to say yes, to say nothing was worth the risk of The Baron’s wrath, something they’d both witnessed first hand. Especially with Caine. He’d been warned of the woman’s recklessness and to not get involved in it. Yet, she was still here. Still standing tall. Clearly, she was doing something right. “Keep talking.”

What About Food: Following each one of the three main characters (Rapunzel, Cassandra and Eugene) through a different struggle with food (stomach issues, bad eating habits and financial anxiety related to the cost of food). Eugene's chapter is being edited and will come out before the Goodwill arc!

Liars: A one-shot following Rapunzel and Cassandra early on in their integration to palace life.

Growing up in an abusive household often times lying was the only way to get by, those habits don't die easy.

Adopting the Thieves Who Stole His Heart: Follows Lance, Eugene, Keira and Catalina as they travel across Equis to the orphanage where the girls grew up to officialize Lance's adoption.

I'm not going to lie to you, I though this one was complete and published and just found out I had a few chapters left to write as I was doing this post... Ooops. Sorry!

A scene:

"Wait, so uncle Eugene killed a man?" Keira asked crossing her arms. “Woah… Maybe we shouldn’t mess with him as much as we do?” Keira looked to Catalina who shrugged. Cherry laughed. “Only a bad man! He wouldn’t hurt you two.” “Well of course he wouldn’t, we’d defeat him,” Keira laughed, then frowned. She looked at Eugene who was sat between Lance and Cherry’s mum, they were laughing about something or other, probably something boring seeing as they were all adults. “Hey, want to meet my favourite pig?” Cherry asked. Earning an excited smile from Catalina. “Sure,” Keira nodded.

AUs within Tangled Sisters AU:

Three Outlaws: Where Cassandra wasn't as badly injured at the end of Two Tangled Sisters and the three fled Corona to be outlaws together. The two sisters aren't that great at being the villains though...

A scene:

“Eugene! Eugene!” “Keep shouting my real name, louder, won’t you? Don’t think the entire town can hear.” Eugene sighed as he raised his eyes to meet Cassandra’s excited expression. “What?” “I figured it out! I cracked the code!” Eugene smiled. “Go on, tell me your new discovery.” He rolled his eyes, expecting her to have discovered caramelized apples or something of the sort. She pulled out some expensive-looking jewellery from her pocket. “I stole this.” Eugene looked surprised, but he quickly grinned. “Impressive. Thought you were against stealing.” “I am, but I cracked the code.” She twirled as Eugene inspecting the goods. “I can’t steal from honest people, so I just need to steal from other outlaws!” Eugene froze. “You what?” “Guess who I stole that from?” Eugene swallowed, eyes taking in the jewels cautiously. “Who?” he asked, his voice barely a whisper. “Some bigshot called himself The Baron.” Eugene’s blood froze. He wanted to scream at Cassandra. But she didn’t know any better. How could she? He hadn’t told her… He took a deep breath, this was bad.

Never Found: Eugene was lucky to find the vines behind which to hide, but he never did bother to go any further and stumble upon a tower. Because of this it's two inhabitants never left. A few years down the line Gothel realises that Cassandra is no longer needed as Rapunzel is grown and decides it's time for her to leave the tower.

A scene:

“Your sister, darling, she’s not well,” Gothel told Rapunzel, who sat on the floor with her sister’s head in her lap. “I must take her home with me.” “But it’s dangerous outside the tower,” Rapunzel argued, tears streaming down her face as she cuddled her sister close. “I know, darling, but she won’t make it inside the tower either.” “Let me heal her! Let me try!” “No Rapunzel. Your magic is good but… It’s killing your sister,” Gothel lied without a regret in the world causing Rapunzel’s sobbing to increase in volume. “I’ll do everything I can to save her, my darling. I love you two more than anything else in the world.” Rapunzel nodded. “Alright mother.”

What The Gallows Took from Corona: What if the end of the Princess, The Pirate and The Prosecutor, Rapunzel wasn't able to save him?

The Sun Child and The Glass Child: The tower was discovered only five years after Rapunzel was taken. Arianna immediately become overjoyed with her now two daughters! However, it wouldn't be long until Gothel tried to retrieve the sundrop and the girls would be forced to cut the long blonde hair. That wouldn't be an issue if not for how ill Cassandra soon became.

Using the remains of the sundrop flower, the doctors are able to save Cassandra's life, but the king and queen are warned of her delicacy. Between the kidnapping and the illness, both Arianna and Frederic become rather protective, leading to a life locked away in a tower not too different from their first home.

The girls long for adventure, and they see their chance when they capture a thief known as Flynn Rider who was trying to steal Rapunzel's crown.

And other AUs I can't reveal anything about because they're spoilers!

Three Thieves

My second biggest fic. Fully planned out and published one arc at a time, it follows Eugene, Lance and Cassandra as they're forced to raise each other in a Coronan orphanage.

It has a lot of fluff, a lot of angst and a lot of fun antics.

Captain's New Family: AU of three thieves where in which Captain adopts the three children after encountering them running away. He doesn't fully understand the situation these children are in, but he does know that the likelihood of all three being adopted together is next to zero unless he was willing.

A scene:

“I know this is sudden, but you three seem to really love and care for each other. Children with such hearts of gold deserve the very best chance at a bright future and… I’m not going to pretend I’m the best chance but, I know you three probably want to stay together and I’m guessing that’s not an easy feet.” “Impossible would be a better describer…” Captain nodded. “I think I can offer you three a good home if you want—” “Of course we want to!” Eugene was fast, this was the chance of a lifetime and he wouldn’t mess it up, not for him, not for Lance, not for Cassandra. Lance nodded. “We’ll do anything!” Cassandra just whimpered, her grip on Lance’s arm intensifying. Lance picked her up in response. “She’s just timid,” Eugene said. “She’ll do anything too.” Captain smiled. “Well, if you’d like to go pack your bags.” The two boys nodded, running off with Cassandra while the captain was left to fill in some paperwork.

Regrets: AU where Cassandra breaks down and tells Captain what happened down at the river. Captain realises he's part of the problem and decides he wants to be a part of the solution.

Cassandra was shaking. She stared up at the queen as though she were a three-headed dragon read to eat her. No matter how much Arianna tried to kneel down and make herself as unintimidating as possible. “Oh dear,” Arianna whispered. “It’s okay Sweetheart.” Cassandra clung to the Captain while her eyes darted around the throne room. Captain grabbed her hand tight in his, knowing she wouldn’t hesitate to sprint to the nearest exit. “Go on Cassandra, tell the queen what you told me?” Cassandra shook her head, so very clearly scared. Before Arianna could open her mouth again, there was the sound of the throne room door opening every so slightly. A little girl peered in. “Mummy?” Rapunzel’s voice caused a sudden change in demeanor for Cassandra. “I need—” Rapunzel froze at the sight, cautiously she took a few steps closer. “Cassandra?” “How…?” Arianna didn’t understand how her daughter could possibly know the name of this child. “Cassandra!” Rapunzel sprinted forward, her arms wrapping around the older girl. “I knew you weren’t a dream! I knew it! I knew it!” she shouted, pulling Cassandra toward her mother. “I knew it mummy!” she screamed with tears running down her face, clearly frustrated yet happy yet also scared. “What’s going on?” Arianna directed the question at neither girl but at the Captain. “Your Majesty, this is Cassandra, the other little girl we found in the tower.” “Other little girl?”

As you can probably tell from those two AUs writing Captain as a kind of villain in this AU hurts me and I need to make up for it in my own way xD

Prince Eugene of the Dark Kingdom

Third priority on the fic list though many people's fave, this is another fully planned fic.

It follows an AU where Edmund was never capable of giving up Eugene and the man grew to become a protector of the moonstone.

Other Fics (organizes from most written to least written):

A Chance to Raise Them: Two girls were rescued from the child and accepted by the royal family. The missing princess Rapunzel and her older sister Cassandra. Frederic and Arianna are ready to spoil this girls rotten and show them just how horrid Gothel was during those difficult first years in their life.

A year after their rescue a pair of thieves tried to steal Rapunzel's hat leading Cassandra to chase them down. Not knowing what to do with the two Frederic hands them off to Captain to tutor for a few weeks. Needless to say those two weeks become quite a bit longer.

A scene:

When they arrived back at the throne room, Rapunzel wearing her hat again, Cassandra ran across the carpeted floor all the way to Frederic, holding up her arms. “Dad!” Frederic smiled and lifted her up onto his lap. “There are my princesses. How was your day?” Rapunzel went over to Arianna to show off her new clothes. “I captured some thieves!” Cassandra told Frederic. He smiled and nodded. “Did you now?” “She actually did,” the captain said, leading the two boys into the room. Frederic looked past Cassandra. “Oh.” “They tried to take Princess Rapunzel’s hat and Princess Cassandra took chase.” He glared at the black-haired princess, who still looked proud of herself. “I beat the little one in a fight!” “I’m bigger than you!” Flynn shouted back. “And I beat you.” Arianna tilted her head. “And who are these two boys?” “They won’t give me their names. Go by Flynn and Lance, apparently.” The captain crossed his arms. “They’re not first offenders.” “They’re also children,” Arianna pointed out. Captain nodded. “Obviously they can’t be punished as adults but, seeing as they are on a path of criminal careers, I must suggest something be done.” “Anything in mind?” Frederic inquired. The two boys stared at the ground. “Maybe a few weeks down in the dungeon ought to set them straight.” “We’re not putting children in the dungeon,” Arianna said with a roll of her eyes. Frederic looked thoughtful. “Lock them in a tower,” Rapunzel said. “No,” Arianna smiled, “We don’t do that Rapunzel.” “Mother had a rule for people who stole,” Cassandra began to suck on her thumb, despite being too old for such a gesture. “We don’t do that either, Cassandra,” Frederic said. “That’s why Gothel went to prison and never came out again.” Cassandra stopped sucking on her thumb. “They could stay with Captain? He’s strict. He makes the guards who aren’t good enough run until they look like they’re going to die. That would teach them not to steal.” The captain smiled. “My guards can quit whenever they want. They stay because my methods are effective,” he argued. “I train my men well.” “Captain, she may actually be onto something.” He frowned. “Would you be willing to take on these young boys for a little while, help them to learn the ways of the law? At least until they’re willing to tell you who they are so their parents can deal with them?” Captain looked down at the young boys with a sigh. “I… I guess I could try.” Frederic nodded. “Then it’s decided. They’ll stay with you.”

The Moon Slave: An AU where Corona was one of many kingdoms that has a strict class system where debt could easily lead to a loss of freedom. Eugene was an escaped slave planning to use a stolen crown to pay for a new life in another kingdom until the blonde got in the way. When he returned the lost princess and was granted his freedom, he technically accomplished his goals. But then one day e finds Rapunzel has taken a slave of her own, a young woman named Cassandra, and Eugene finds his loyalty for the princess wavering despite Rapunzel's lack of understanding.

A scene:

Rapunzel didn’t understand Eugene’s past. She tried to; she asked Eugene, who brushed her off; she asked her father, who just chuckled and said that past was over; she asked her mother, who looked sad and shook her head, mumbling something about politics. Eugene said he hadn’t always had freedom, the same as Rapunzel, but somewhat different. That was as close to an explanation as Rapunzel could get, and she hated it. It told her nothing.

Warrior of Glass: Captain was an overprotective dad and Cassandra claimed it wasn't justified. Rapunzel had no reason not to believe her best friend so when Captain refuses to let Cassandra take part in the Challenge of the Brave, Rapunzel and Eugene make a plan to distract Captain while Cassandra takes part.

But then Captain explains about a condition Cassandra has and the realization that they made a huge mistake strikes faster than lightning.

(random AU one-shot thing)

Two Lovers in a Tower: Gothel convinces Eugene, after falling in love with Rapunzel, that the tower is the only way to ensure Rapunzel's safety. Eugene moved into the tower, but there's something wrong with all of this and he can't put his finger on what.

The Poison Palace: After Eugene returns the lost princess, he is accepted with open arms by the king and queen. Pardoned for his past. But the longer he spends in the palace, the iller he is getting. And Cassandra suspects there may be foul play afoot.

Mother Knows Best: Corona heavily prosecutes any magic. Gothel rescues a blonde baby before she can be killed for the magic in her hair. Years later, said blonde leaves the safety of the tower with the dashing thief Flynn Rider. He thinks this mother is keeping her daughter hostage until Rapunzel reveals to him her magic and suddenly he is made aware he's leading this girl to her death, but she thinks this is another trick from the thief and is determined to see the lights. Eugene is forced to team up with Gothel to rescue Rapunzel before Corona can have its way with her.

Queen of Amber: Arianna is encased in amber and Frederic filled with rage attempts to kill the young alchemist.

Partners in Crime: Neither Eugene nor Rapunzel make the princess connection and instead they leave Corona to be thieves together. However, after Flynn Rider's escape, Captain steps down making Cassandra hungry for vengeance. She seeks down Flynn Rider, captures him and it is only when Rapunzel begs for his freedom that she realises the brunette standing before her is no mere thief, but rather Corona's missing princess.

Islands Together: Owl never got Eugene and Rapunzel. Captain left the island with his new four-year-old Cassandra. The people of Corona are quite spooked at first, but eventually just accept this.

Except for one person, when Cassandra sees her father cuddling his new four-year-old daughter something in her breaks and Corona was not ready for it.

Strongbow Along for the Ride: Lance never went to prison, and it wasn't one but two thieves who broke into the tower on that faithful day.

What Was Lost In The Great Tree: Cassandra didn't just injure her hand but died in the Great Tree. The gang has to move on but can Rapunzel face her destiny with this guilt in her heart?

Queen For Longer Than a Day: Frederic and Arianna died in the snowstorm and Rapunzel had to navigate the complicated route of being the youngest monarch in the seven kingdoms. She has Eugene and Cassandra by her side to guide her but will their support be enough? Especially with the ever-growing threat of the black rocks surrounding the kingdom?

Royalty Can't Date a Thief: Though Eugene is granted a pardon and a chance at a new life, Frederic forbids the princess to date an ex-thief. So Eugene gets a job as her bodyguard and they date in secret despite the risks that carries.

Unknowingly Indentured: Upon bringing Cassandra back from Gothel's cottage Frederic commands she will be a servant for the rest of her days in response to her mother's crimes. Captain, unable to tell Cassandra the truth, just pretends the servitude is normal and Cassandra doesn't find out until she is forbidden from leaving alongside the princess and Eugene due to her duties.

Amber Alchemist: Quirin never pushed Varian out of the way and instead finds his son consumed by amber. He confronts his old king and is more than willing to confront the moonstone itself if that's what it takes to save his son.

Cassandra and the Ghost Girl: Zhan Tiri reached a young Cassandra through dreams, slowly convincing her that Gothel is an unfit mother and that she and her younger sister Rapunzel must escape the tower.

Cassandra does and Zhan Tiri leads them to the Dark Kingdom where Cassandra gets her hands on the moonstone.

But when Zhan Tiri is unable to get the sisters to fight, she leads them back to Corona so they can be cared for. Knowing she'd get them to fight eventually.

Many are scared of Cassandra who they know killed her own mother and is often caught talking to herself, but her adoptive parents do love her and Captain who is more often than not her personal bodyguard teaches her to fight.

A scene:

Arianna holds her close. “She’s dangerous,” Frederic says. “She’s a child,” argues Arianna. “She killed her own mother.” Arianna frowned. “I know that. I know she’s dangerous. But she’s a child, she needs love and care. Someone has to be brave enough to give that to her.”

(the highlight of this short AU is when everybody learns the child they thought had lost a part of her sanity was actually just being harassed by an invisible demon)

And then there's a few other fics that I don't think I'll be continuing ever so I won't include in this post!

If you want to know more about ANY of these fics, please, do not hesitate to ask, privately, publicly, some of these I have chapters and chapters, pages upon pages of notes, I would have loved to say more but... Well, this is already pretty long.

[doodle-bun-makes]

Hi! Would you mind telling me about your favourite thing you've ever created?

Oh my gosh I dont even know where to start!!!! I've made a lot of things in my 19 years of life; both fandom related and original ideas, writing and drawing! So I'm gonna choose one of each because I can't choose just one (this is going to be long lol)

For fan writing, I have to say my favorite thing I've made so far is for Haikyuu (of course lol). It's a fantasy au that originally focused on Kyoutani x Yamaguchi where Kyoutani's a demon/cambion who's apart of this infamous demon family that's known for bringing destruction. He and his brothers are summoned to bring down a kingdom that was already on the verge of collapsing b/c of a shitty king who pissed a lot of people off. But Kyoutani becomes enamored with Yamaguchi, who all the demons mistake for the prince. Then Kyoutani gets in trouble because he decides to spare and help heal Yamaguchi even though they were supposed to kill all the royalty. It isn't until a demon king comes to "finish the job" that it's revealed that Yamaguchi isn't the prince, but the personal servant of the princess. Then this would branch into another story focused on Hinata x Aone where prince Hinata and his sister flee to the neighboring kingdom in the mountains. Then Hinata tries to befriend the shy prince Aone and they end up falling in love after Aone saves Hinata from hypothermia after he was thrown by a horse into a river. I still love this idea even though I haven't finished either of these fics. I've put so much thought into it and I don't want to publish anything until I have the whole story written out so I don't leave anything on a cliffhanger. I do intend to finish these fics one day and maybe add another to the universe where Yamaguchi, Aone, Hinata, and some other characters (i'm thinking Tsukishima and Kageyama) go on some journey, but idk. But if we're talking about published fics I'm still so proud of my Yamaguchi x Kyoutani cowboy au "The Hat Rule" that's published on my ao3, it's the longest fic I've been able to finish so far!

For fan art, this is going to be hard. I'm kinda in a rut right now where I hate my art style, but I still really like this art I made for my cowboy au fic "The Hat Rule" that I mentioned before

For original works, i think my favorite story would have to be this fantasy story that's working title is "Of Dragons and Unicorns" where the princess of the unicorn kingdom, Sylvia, is betrothed to the crown prince of the dragon kingdom, Eluard, but she's really resentful about it because she's only met him once when they were really young so she doesn't remember him at all and all the portraits she gets of him make him look dull and boring. But the dragon royalty and other royalty are coming to the unicorn kingdom to celebrate Sylvia at a debutante ball thing. Basically, Sylvia is cold to Eluard and his brother Oswald at first but after she has a slight meltdown at her ball, Eluard opens up to her and they become friends. I'm hoping for a one sided enemys-to-friends-to-lovers kind of story. Then in a different story Sylvia would move to the dragon kingdom where she'd learn that Eluard has an estranged twin brother and both of them have this curse(?) that gives them dragon traits (scales, wings, claws). While the estranged brother embraces his traits and sees it as an excuse to not be responsible for his actions, Eluard is ashamed of it and tries to hide his traits from Sylvia. Then this would lead to the whole "prince saves princess from dragon" situation where BOTH of the princes are dragons (kinda) and Sylvia is so rude to the estranged brother that he gives her up voluntarily. But this story is SO far from finished that I don't know when or if it'll ever be done. I've put so much thought into the world building for this story that I could honestly spend hours talking about it. I truly love this story, but I literally can't find the motivation in me to work on it.

For original drawings, this is a hard one. I have a lot of OC's that have my whole heart, but my favorite digital drawing has to be this one with burlesque cocker spaniels. For a little context, I like drawing animals in old fashioned clothes when I'm super stressed because it makes me feel better. I'm not an official furry (I don't have a fursona or anything), but this piece brings me a certain pride that none of my others do. Maybe it's the lighting

But yeah! These are four of my favorite projects and I'm so happy to share them with you who made it this far. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about any of my projects!

[opie-nixx]

Fuck you, Micah! (CHAP. 12)

Hosea: "Its gonna work out, just listen to Dutch."

Dutch: "I don't expect you to understand this... but I have never been more proud of you... than I am right now, brother. You're doing the right thing.

John: "If I don't get that boy back, she'll kill us all." He says full of worry and fear.

Y/n: "John, I can assure you he knows we're comin, and I know for a fact he ain't in the business of killin kids. Don't let what that hag said get to ya." I say as I place my hand on his giving it a tight squeeze offering a small smile. John nods his head as Dutch and Arthur agree.

Hosea: "Do you know anything about this Bronte?"

Y/n: "Just some Italian gang leader kinda like Dutch but more "civilized" and fancy I suppose you can say."

Dutch: "How do you know this?"

Y/n: "Some things are better kept a secret."

Lenny: "Hey, Dutch. We got a problem." Lenny walks in with Milton and Ross keeping a gun on him.

Milton: "Not a problem... visitors... a solution. Good day fine people. Mr. Van der Linde. Mr. Mathews, I presume. And... who are you 2?" Milton says walking cautiously into camp as he points between John and I. We all stand from the table as the gang begins to surround them. Arthur pulling me behind him.

John: "Rip Van Winkle."

Y/n: "None of your god damn business." I snap as I furrow my brows.

Milton: "Huh... good day, sir, ma'am. Agent Milton, Pinkerton... Detective Agency. Agent Ross. Ah, Mr. Morgan... nice to see you again." I grip onto the back of Arthur's jacket.

Dutch: "And what do we owe the pleasure? Agent Moron."

Milton: " don't know if you're aware but this... this is a civilized land now. We didn't kill all them savages... only to allow the likes of you... to act like human dignity... and basic decency was outmoded or not yet invented. This thing... it's done."

Dutch: "This place... ain't no such thing as civilized. It's man so in love with greed... He has forgotten himself and found only appetites."

Milton: "And as a consequence that lets you take what you please... kill whom you... please and hang the rest of us? Who made you the messiah... to these lost souls you've led so horribly astray?"

Dutch: " I'm nothing but a seeker, Mr. Milton."

Milton: "You ain't much of anything more than a killer, Mr. Van der Linde. But I came to make a deal. It's time. You come with me... and I give the rest of ya three days to run off... disappear and go and live like human beings.... someplace else."

Dutch: "You came for me? Risked life and limb in this den of lowlifes and murderers... so that they might live and love? Ain't that fine." The gang gives a small chuckle.

Milton: "I don't wanna kill all these folk, Dutch... just you."

Dutch: "In that case... it'd be my honor... to join you. Excuse me, friends... I have an appointment to keep with..." He remarks throwing his hands in the air, I draw my revolver and point it at Milton as the rest of the gang does the same to them both.

Y/n: "I've never been good at reading the room, but I think it's time you should go." I say snarkily.

Milton: "You're making a mistake all of you."

Dutch: "Yeah... dreadful. We have got something... something to live and die for. How awful for us, Mr. Milton. Stop following us... we'll be gone soon."

Milton: "I'm afraid I can't... and when I return I'll be with fifty men. All of you will die. Run away from this place, you fools. Run!"

Lenny: "Come on." He urges giving them a shove.

Milton: "Get your hands off me boy." He shoves as him and Ross leave on there horses.

Arthur: "What now?" Arthur sighs as he steps out in front as we all watch them leave.

Dutch: "We get outta here... and quick. Any ideas?"

Arthur: "I know a big old house... hidden in the swamps outside Saint Denis. I'm sure they'll find us eventually... but it should buy us a few days."

Dutch: "A few days is all we need."

Arthur: "You and Arthur ride out... and make sure no one else has moved in. Lenny... you go follow those fools outta here... make sure that they leave. And, John... we'll get Jack back and we'll get gone. Rest of you get packing!"

John mutters how crazy this is as Arthur gives me a peck on the lips before following after John. I make my way to Arthur's tent and begin to pack his stuff. Being grateful most of his stuff is packed, I make quick work of getting his cot folded up along with his blankets. Once I step outside and begin to untether the tent itself from the ground pins I hear heavy steps behind me.

Charles: "Need help?"

Y/n: "If you're not needed elsewhere I'll take it."

Charles: "I have a small tent and not much stuff." He begins to help me untie the string on the opposite side. Once we finish I begin to pull the cloth from the top, but Charles smacks my hands playfully and takes over.

Y/n: "Fine." I throw my hands up and begin to throw Arthur's stuff in his wagon as neatly as I could. Charles neatly folds the the tent cover and places it on to of the crates and chests in the wagon. We make quick work of clearing Arthur's spot and move to mine. I enjoyed the small conversation we held as we took down my tent. I stopped to put my hair in a ponytail/pin back, my eyes meet Charles as his face was turning a bit red as he stared at me. I can hear him gulp before thinking about what to say next. I giggle.

Y/n: "Somethin catch your eye, Charles?" I begin to pick u my stuff and place it in Arthur's wagon. Charles does the same before striking up another conversation.

Charles: "How serious are you and Arthur?" I begin to choke on my own spit as my face flushes red.

Y/n: "I err? I think we're together, I mean he's the only 1 I've been with since I got here? I'd like to think he the same?" I chuckle sheepishly as I fan my face. Grimshaw and Dutch call for everyone to hitch horses to there wagons. Charles and I walk over to where the Shires were and bring them over to the wagon. I let Charles handle hitching them to the wagon as I wasn't too sure on how to do that. My eyes began to wander over Charles. I'd be lying if I said he wasn't attractive. I chuckle as I kick the ground around me looking down.

Lenny: "Can I ride with you guys?" Before I could give an answer Sean runs up to us drenched in sweat. Charles, Lenny and I furrow our brows as we exchange glances before collectively looking at Sean who was out of breath and sweating.

Sean: "Can I ride wit you's too?" I scoff.

Y/n: "Why the hell are you panting and so sweaty?"

Sean: "It's hot and we've been movin around too much." I shake my head.

Y/n: "I don't mind if you ride in the wagon but Charles is driving and I call shotgun." Lenny and Sean nod in agreement before hopping in the back of the wagon.

Charles: "I'm driving?"

Y/n: "I'm tired and want a nap." Charles chuckles before nodding. We both climb up on the wagon and I prop my arm on the board supporting our backs and rest my head in my hand. As I wind down I notice Dutch and Grimshaw beginning to load out with the rest of the gang either on the back of the wagons or on there horses. I make a clicking sound for my horse to follow.

Y/n: "Why did you ask about me and Arthur?" I ask as my eyes begin to close.

Charles: "Just curious. It's no secret the history he had with Mary. I don't know much but I know they loved eachother once."

Y/n: "I don't expect him not to love her. I understand the type of relationship they had. It honestly makes me kind of wish I had that type of love once." Charles glances at me before looking back to the road.

Charles: "You had a lover before?"

Y/n: "Before Arthur, I suppose you can say. He wasn't the best...at all. He seemed so nice before hand and encouraged me to do a lot. I guess that's why I fell for him, but as soon as he got me all to myself things went downhill."

Charles: "What about your family? Where are they?"

Y/n: "Nor here nor there. They weren't really parents, they could care less where I was or who I was with. They were just as bad as my past lover." I begin to nod off.

Charles: "I'm sorry."

Y/n: "Ehh to be entirely clear with you, I'm more happy here than I was there." I hear Charles grunt and Lenny trying to convince Sean to use this time to practice some reading. I smile to myself as I begin to nod to sleep. The bumps in the roads seeming less and less of a distraction to my weariness. What I didn't realize was that I fell asleep on Charles shoulder making the poor man wonder if he was comfortable enough. Not wanting to move you he kept as still as he could until we reached the manor.

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

Arthur: "Welcome home... all of ya... to my humble abode. We got fine living. Ignore the corpses and the alligators... it's paradise..." I flinch a bit to the sudden sound of Arthur's voice. I sit up from Charles shoulder and rub my eyes.

Y/n: "Sorry, Charles." He gives me a nod. We pull up before the bridge behind Pearson's wagon. I begin to climb down with everyone else but not before Arthur is right in front of me extending his arms out. I beam him a smile and jump into them. Wrapping my legs around his waist and my hands on his shoulders, he begins to give me pecks on my lips.

Dutch: "Pearson, Grimshaw work your magic around this place. Please. Arthur, take a ride with me, will you?" He says grabbing his horse. I unravel myself from him as he sets me down.

Arthur: "Sure...Let's talk tonight." I nod my head as he plants a kiss to my cheek.

Molly: "Dutch, can I have a word with you?"

Dutch: "Not now." Molly nods her head and walks off. Arthur and I exchange glances before he gets on his horse. I wave him off before making my way to Molly.

Y/n: "Wanna talk to me? We can chit chat while I unload Arthur and I's stuff." She looks to me with puffy eyes and nods. I give a small grin as she follows me to Arthur's wagon.

Molly: "I just feel like I can't talk to him...He seems so different...I just wanna know if he still loves me the way I do him." I nod in understanding.

Y/n: "I used to feel like that with my old lover. I can't tell you what happened or if he ever did love me, but Dutch can't love you the way you wanna be loved." I say before lifting up a crate which is soon taken by Charles.

Charles: "I got this 1." I nod as a thank you.

Molly: "What should I do?"

Y/n: "Leave. You run and don't look back. Ain't nothin good goin to come of you too bein together."

Molly: "But what if I tried talkin to him?"

Y/n: "You 2 can talk all you want but if you ain't comprehending what is being said your talkin smoke." Molly let a few tears escape.

Y/n: "I care for you in the best way possible, but please heed my advice." She nods before walking off. I continue to put stuff and Arthur and I's room as Charles helps.

Night begins to take over the orange sunset as I sit at the campfire with Sean. The warmth providing a perfect atmosphere for drinking and sharing a few laughs with the Irishmen.

Sean: "Why do you like the big grump anyway?"

Y/n: "He's sexy." I say taking a swig from our shared whiskey bottle before handing it to him. Sean's eye's widen the size of saucers before chugging the bottle a bit.

Sean: "I like yew, your bold."

Y/n: "You asked." I giggle a bit. I feel the air change into a cool breeze as rain begins to dust around the area. Sean and I begin to groan. Not too long after the rain begins to pour. Sean and I stand up and before I could take another swig Sean snatches the bottle and scurries off to Karen's tent. I stand in disbelief as I watch him run off.

Y/n: "You little shit." I begin to make my way inside the house, but not quick enough since my clothes became drenched in water. I begin to undo the buttons as I make my way up the stairs. I nod at Javier who was making his way down the stairs as I was going up. He glanced between me and my chest. I look down as well forgetting the shirt was transparent when wet. Both of our faces become a deep red as we quicken our pace going to our destinations. I made my way to Arthur's room and shut the door. I begin to remove the articles of clothing and slide on Arthur's shirt. I start to feel odd as if someone was watching me. I glance over towards the window and notice Micah looking up smoking a cigarette. I scoff in disgust as he waves.

Micah: "Now I know why Arthur wants you for himself." He says as he gestures towards my chest.

Y/n: "Fuck you, Micah!" I shout out. Time couldn't have been more perfect as I see Arthur and Dutch ride in. Then I see Javier walking over to outside the camp to do his guard duty. He stops and glances between me and Micah. He takes the butt of his gun and clocks Micah in the jaw sending him flat on his ass.

Y/n: "Ooo." I say. Arthur and Dutch both dismount and run over to Javier who just tips his hat towards me and carries on. Arthur glances at me as Dutch helps Micah off the ground. Arthur begins to make his way inside the house..That is until Micah wanted to say another stupid thing.

Micah: "Let me know when you wanna take a real ride from a cowboy." Arthur stopped dead in his tracks and turns on his heel. Not even Dutch could save Micah from what was about to happen. My eye's widen as I watch Arthur throw his fist into Micah's nose. Not even the sound of the wind and rain could drown out the sound of friction and the bones breaking. Micah ends up right back in the mud and Arthur is stomping off into the house. I pull away from the window as I hear his foot steps come closer. The door flings open and I see a drenched angry Arthur walk through. I close the door behind him as he begins to take off his own clothes. My face turns beet red as he unbuttons his shirt and throws it off.

Arthur: "He's a damn asshole." I walk over to his chest and pull out some dry clothes for him.

Y/n: "I know. I'm sorry. Try not to let him get to you though." He avoids my eye's and just continues to take his clothes off. I sit on his bed and pick up a book and continue reading. I hear Arthur sigh as he slides on the dry clothes before plopping next to me.

Y/n: "You said you wanted to talk, so what's up?" Arthur put's his arm around my waist and scoots me closer to him.

Arthur: "Whatchu readin?" He says looking down at the book I was holding.

Y/n: "Some silly romance Mary-Beth gave me. I've been reading it for what feels like forever. It's a good laugh sometimes." I say nonchalantly. Arthur nods his head.

Arthur: "Do you enjoy bein with me?" He asks lowly. I could hear him gulp loudly as if his mind was scrambled trying to plan what to do based on my answer. I close the book and look at him.

Y/n: "Why would I not?"

Arthur: "I'm a grump. Might only be with me for somethin I could do for you?" I furrow my brows.

Y/n: "Did I ask you to do somethin to make you feel that way? I can assure you my sole attention is on you and no one else."

Arthur: "I err. No, you haven't asked me for anything. I just..don't know what you want from me and it confuses me."

Y/n: "I'm not like that." His eyes widen.

Y/n: "You mean more to me then just doing some dirty work and I want to talk to you more than when I want to ask you to do something."

Arthur: "Er..I'm sorry, I-"

Y/n: "I just want to spend some time with you. Is that okay that I ask that of you?"

Arthur: "Yeah..Sure." He still stares.

Y/n: "Good. Glad we have an understanding."Arthur chuckles.

Arthur: "I was in town and wanted to see if you wanted to come with me...Maybe go see a movie?" He asks shyly.

Y/n: "Is the famous Mr. Morgan asking me out on a night on the town?"  Arthur's face becomes pink.

Arthur: "Maybe."

Y/n: "I'd love too." I say as I scoot over so that I'm on top of him. I run my hands through his hair as I plant a kiss on his lips. He places his hands on my hips as he slowly begins to rearrange our position. Slowly deepening the kiss, he gently lays me down on my side as he begins to grind his cock against my ass. His hands are making quick work of the shirt I was wearing, fondling my breasts.

Sean: "Arthur!" Sean says as the door flings open and barging through it. Arthur and I both freeze and slowly turn our heads over to Sean who was full on drunk and wobbling foot to foot with a bright red face.

Sean: "Oh...I didn't think you had it in yew, yew grumpy bastard. No wonder why she thinks your sexy, you're just as bold as she is. And Y/n, lovely..dear old Y/n, might I say, you have a lovely rack." He sputters out giving a chefs kiss at the end of his statement. Arthur quickly jumped right up and began to stomp towards the door where Sean stood. He bolted straight out the door as soon as he saw Arthur come for him. I went back to reading my book, but not before I heard Sean tumble down the stairs and Arthur shout at him

Arthur: "Learn to knock before you come in!" before stomping back to our room.

[tomboyjessie13-artblog]

Just something I've been thinking about for a while.

Basically the events of the [Justice] Arc play out the same as Canon here, except Medea gets dragged along by Enyaba to be employed at her "hotel" in Pakistan, under the guise of her "shy but hardworking granddaughter" working for her(It's mostly an excuse for Medea to hide her face from the visiting Crusaders). 

But much like Canon, things took a huge nosedive the second Hol Horse showed up and Enyaba tried to kill him for being responsible for her son's death. Even worse, after Polnareff discovered the ruse, Medea finally became fed up with Enyaba and her cruelty and reveals that she hated J. Geil for being human trash which angers Enyaba even more, accusing her of taking advantage of her son and that she doesn't deserve to breath the same air as DIO, injuring her leg for [Justice] to control and force [Flogging Molly] to kill her(either by poisoning or cutting). 

Miraculously, Medea made it out alive, but now she, Polnareff, and Hol Horse are in deep shit and are at the mercy of Enyaba and her Stand. As you can see from the drawing above, both Polnareff and Hol Horse are clinging onto Medea and each other, cowering in fear, meanwhile Medea(being raised Catholic by her Irish mother) performs the Lord's Prayer in hopes that she is saved or goes into heaven instead of hell. 

Thankfully for all three of them, Jotaro stops Enyaba and they live to see another day, but this incident left Medea so traumatized that she can't look at fog normally without feeling sick, even when living a normal life in Morioh a decade later, the incident still haunts her. Medea King belongs to me
