do you have a general timeline for the hermit archives AU? or is it just let people go buckwild and see what happens? (In a good way ofc)
There's a general list of "events" I imagine would happen. But not fully sure about the order. I'll list some of these for funsies, but for the most part you're allowed to go wild and do whatever you like:
The Mycellium War is covered in a historical statement, it covers a war that was then used by The Corruption as a way to bring forth a ritual (obviously, it failed). Possible idea is that Grian's great grandfather was some sort of high ranking general in this war and the statement that is read is from a letter Grian finds.
At some point, Grian meets Zedaph (The Distortion) and goes through his Cave of Contraptions.
There is a Slaughter Ritual which covers the events of 3rd Life. Taking the events, Grian/Scar aren't as directly involved. Instead they get statements from a bunch of people (but this mostly focuses on red names and specifically, the Red King, who is an Avatar/being of the Slaughter).
Last Life is a Hunt Ritual, this one takes place where S3's Stranger Ritual would have. This time the Archive Gang are directly involved in stopping it. Joel is the antagonist that they mainly fight.
The outcome of this ritual leaves Grian, Joel, and Scar in a strange purgatory land reflecting the 100hr Hardcore series (End domain/territory). Jimmy (the End Avatar) is the one to pull them out of purgatory (similar to what Oliver Banks does for Jon in the start of S4)
'Moon's Big' is probably also a ritual of some sort, possibly the alternate version of what S5 might be, but it could also just be another event that they have to deal with. Maybe the Extinction Ritual?
Now that all the big/main events are covered, here's a list of some fics I know that cover various statements. I've linked the original work as well, if you want to read them:
Statement of Scar, revolving his experiences with death (End) [Sixteenthdays]
Statement of Scott, regarding a terrible camping trip (Hunt, Joel) [Sixteenthdays]
Statement of Zedaph, regarding a spatial anomaly (Spiral) [Sixteenthdays]
Statement of Zedaph, regarding peculiar architecture within his laboratory (Spiral) [onlytrueinparadise]
Statement of Mumbo, regarding his dietary habits (Flesh) [Kishdoodles]
Statement of Mumbo, regarding his participation in a lab experiment (Spiral) [Schattenfell]
Statement of Cleo, regarding a sculpting book (Stranger) [Sixteenthdays] [Kishdoodles]
Statement of Pearl, regarding her experiences stargazing (Vast) [Sixteenthdays]
Statement of Grian, regarding a doppelganger [sharklights]
And here's a list of my own ideas, feel free to use them if any particularly inspire you. I'm not a writer, so I won't do them myself (I don't know if anyone has done these yet, if they have, feel free to let me know):
Statement of ---, regarding a local cave myth (Buried, TFC)
Statement of Hbomb, regarding the actions of a teammate during a competition (Hunt, False [MCC9])
Statement of ---, regarding a computer A.I. program (Extinction, Grumbot)
Statement of Joe Hills, regarding his library (Leitner statement)
Statement of Docm77, regarding the World Eater (Extinction)
Statement of Etho, regarding a weed infestation in his roommate's bedroom (Corruption, Bdubs)
Statement of Impulse, regarding a new formula brand of chocolate bar (Spiral)
Statement of ---, regarding a local cookie shop (Flesh, Scar)
Hope this gives a little more information on everything! Happy to answer any more questions.

A Pumpkin Preview - Oct 28, 2023
We had these spiderweb candy bowls at the library, so I thought they'd make an interesting display for my pumpkins. This is only about half of the stock, but it's a good preview of what my craft fair display might look like. The black and orange ones have spiders, but the cream/gray one is bones and skulls.
These are the pumpkins we stuffed last week, including the one I forgot at home (still not stuffed yet). The green one is from August's harvest, as I wanted LL-K to see how that yarn knit up as a whole pumpkin. (She complimented how I used it on the stems and was curious about it as a whole thing. I'm like, "Well boy howdy, do I have some good news for you.")
Anyone remember the 2nd Oberon biscornu I started last fall? Just got around to seaming the panels together today. The corners and centers weren't meeting properly (off my a couple stitches), so I'm wondering if my panels aren't square. Even if they were stretched on the frame, the square count should still be right. So this bugger will get sewn like a normal square, alas.
My thread also broke, so I saw it as a sign to stop for the day. Trying to craft while confused and frustrated is not fun and can make things worse. Even if I don't include it in next week's craft fair offerings, I'd like to at least get it finished by the end of the year.

okay i love rouge like actually
everyone here actually is characterized so well??? the relationship between Sonic and Tails especially feels actually genuine
so far the only thing I even slightly dislike is Knuckles' voice and the fact that they reused the same robots from Boom, but besides that, this looks legitimately incredible
once again the dialogue is SO MUCH BETTER compared to the trailer
