#like itd be sure cool

Hi, love your work and the new AU, looks super interesting and cool!

Idle aside but it low key inspired a different AU/What if concept (Well several variations like a fae court version ETC) and I thought I'd share it, sorry if not to your interest, I'll try to be quick!

Basically, rather than a Poe cup, there is a yearly 'hunt' where volunteering students are set loose in the woods with free reign to use their nature or any magic and tools they wish (Provided they don't kill) to 'hunt' other students both as "Monsters that hunt in the night" and as "Monster hunters" with them being graded on how many they defeat, how strategically they operate & how good of a fight they put up in that order.

Wednesday signs up to Nevermore 1 day before the tournament so she can win it and then drop out and generally talks a big game.

Only to get dropped real quick cos she completely dismissed Enid the wolf in sheeps clothing as a threat, meanwhile Enid went for her first cos she was the only one whose weaknesses Enid didn't know from her gossip gathering.

Wednesday is livid & watched ENid then take out a vampire with a poor sense of smell with her blood on tree, Ajax with a fluttering coat & mirror trick, a siren with ear plugs and a bit. Then team up with Yoko to take out Bianca before they have a fairly epic bout with Toko calling on all sorts of buck wild vampire magic (Crimson fang!) & Enid using silver tools & spells of Hunters (Silver Claws!). These are technically just regular magic and magic items but like, real painful & super dangerous for Outcasts to use.

They fight to a seeming tie before forfeiting cos Yoko could outlast her spell repertoire and magic reserves even after having fought her way through several other foes. Meaning Enid showed the most hunting skill, having taken out the most competitors, was one of the best combatants and one of the best strategists by withdrawing when it was not wise to keep fighting & gets gold.

Esther barely applauds cos she feels Enid could have stomped the competition if she had been able to transform, so her injuries gained to win and suffering & risks from training don't get her the approval she was begging for & the prize is like ashes in her mouth even as she dances with Yoko & Divina.

Meanwhile Wednesday is watching and grudgingly resolves to stay at Nevermore to basically make a point, get her own back & see how this perky pastel primidone defeated the most ruthless of the Addams clan.

And they were room mates.

you could make a fanfic outta this

New au because I'm sick and twisted and can't stop making them fall in love again and again

Will I dabble in this au after ship week? Highly unlikely, HOWEVER, it will lurk in my brain to play with like Barbie dolls. Sorry, you guys don't have tickets to my mental movie theater :(

Hence, I welcome yall to play around with it yourselves if you so wish! Feel free to brain dump on this post or in my ask box (whichever you feel more comfortable with) as I'd be happy to hear your takes on it ^u^)/

Here's what I've got for any crumbs of lore:

Uhhh I guess if I had to put a label on it I'd call it some kinda science vs mythos au ????

Basically, Dr. Kaiba (cause he's a scientist with a doctorate, smart boy) works at a highly classified facility (think like SCP) and finds himself assigned to a relatively new and infamous subject (it's Wheeler). The subject is tied to all kinds of rumors, which gained it quite a scary reputation, much to Kaiba's dismay. Unexpectedly, when Kaiba turns up to the job, he finds that the subject is nothing like the rumors. It even calls itself by a name: Joey.

The general idea would be a sort of freedom vs captivity struggle. Kaiba and Joey would have very conflicting perspectives, Joey feeling as though he's just here temporarily to help out and learn about the world (loosely calling himself a diplomat, albeit his trip is not official) meanwhile Kaiba fully acknowledges him as a lab subject to study that has no means of escape.

I also like the idea of Joey falling first, but Kaiba falling harder :3c

found a VHS tape from 2004 in the art department at my college, I give it a 50/50 its either blank or im about to become a horror webseries protagonist

[spearxwind]

been thonking... wonder if i could get away with fusing my extinction headworld/lore with my broken horizon headworld/lore since the main focus of both of them is dragons.

pros: many dragons to interact with each other. a world on the scale of what i originally envisioned for both stories

cons: there is some conflicting lore :( and i would like the extinction chars to keep the focus on gladiator fighting, while also keeping the other ocs focus on exploration and flight racing

i find dennis' toxic love for the gang sooo interesting. the lengths he goes through to ensure that their group dynamic never changes. the amount of planning he puts in implies that this is one of his fears– how they might one day change and abandon him.

an example of this would be in "frank retires" where he had formed the franquito plan seven years before he needed to use it, which felt devious (towards frank) to charlie, dee and mac, but dennis had justified it by saying he just didn't want them to change. the ending had dennis acting like he didn't mean a word he said, but i doubt it, because just a few episodes before (the gang misses the boat) he concluded that he just wanted things to stay normal in the gang after a minor freakout about how they're all gradually getting more and more insane staying in the bar together.

dennis resisting change is a consistent theme for his character. he does not want the gang to live in virtual realities, charlie to get smart, mac and dee to leave, mac's mom to stay with them, mac to connect with his dad, dee to actually be successful, mac to be so forward in his advances, frank to retire, etc etc. because he already likes the gang so much the way it is.

that is, unless he personally seeks the change. he could get married in a day, because he wanted to. he could kick mac out. he could leave the gang and start a family. he could change his car to a more modern one. but each time he tries to change and leave, he comes back to the gang... and his range rover.

and this is why he seems to hate them too, because most of his hatred comes from his resentment from loving them too much and being unable to leave. and the love he has for them is toxic, because he wants to drag them down together with him. the s13 narrative wants us to know that he's the main reason the gang stays the same for 16 seasons.

it's what makes dennis takes a mental health day so notable to me though. the commentary on systems throughout the episode, and how dennis is sick of it. dennis' rejection of technology when it takes away real life interactions, parallels the episode "charlie rules the world" in s6 which was the major turning point for dennis developing a god complex (where british dennis tells him that 'you create your own reality'). i believe dtamhd will also be a turning point for dennis, perhaps where he starts letting things go without putting as much control (systems) because he wants to live in a reality where he doesn't need to do these things anymore.

K I really like the art in Green Lantern Alliance but why is Irey orange? I think it'd be really cool to show Irey with a darker skin tone, something closer to her mother, and I'm not at all against that.

But Linda isn't orange yo.

I'm not crazy on this one, right? Irey looks Tamaranian.

Maybe it's the red hair throwing me off? Idk she just looks so saturated

My 1 take I can give on current bfdi/tpot "criticism" (which I don't see much of but It Exists) is that from what I've seen is that a good chunk of it can be boiled down to "It's not pre split bfb"

[meowthiroth]

realized it’s been a hot minute since I’ve actually posted any art here, I should probably fix that jskdfkg

rejoice, himbo be upon ye

Ykno when ur lookin at an artist and ur like "man, I want to commission art from You, Specifically"

I have something in mind for a scene that's coming up in ITNL (whenever I start writing again) that would be really cool, & I know Exactly who I'd want it by... except they don't have open commission slots 😭😭😭

I can be patient, though... I have been patient before...
