Monster Starters!
...Keith was still unused to this werewolf thing. Snarling, he ran into his room to snuggle up with Yorak. At least his dog still liked him and wasn't patronizing him.

We did it! It's a thing!
Tumblr media
[I don't know who made this...But bless them. Bless them for life!]
'Big' Jack Horner is one of several main antagonists in the movie Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. His brutal nature, warped sense of humour and lack of morals quickly turned him into a unique character for the fandom, as did his enormous, disproportionate frame and penchant for magical weaponry. Although the Wolf enjoys most of the internet's lascivious attentions, Jack Horner somehow manages to eke out quite a few admirers of his own.
Basic Information
A heartless, sadistic collector of magical artefacts, Jack used to be known as 'Little' Jack Horner from the nursery rhyme of the same name. Now a huge, intimidating adult, Jack runs a criminal empire under the guise of his inherited pie company, and uses hired guns to procure magical items for his collection, which is housed in a "trophy room" in his factory. Throughout the film, Jack seeks the fabled Wishing Star, a fallen star able to grant one wish to whoever finds it, hoping that it will make true his ultimate dream: to become the Master of All Magic, and to own and control all of the magic in the whole world, not sharing any of it.
Villain lovers, fat men enjoyers and artists alike have rejoiced at Jack's unique design, utter contempt for the notion of villainous redemption, and his generally hilarious attitude. Considered a breath of evil fresh air, you won't have to look far to find ravenous fans wanting a taste of this pie man's sweet, tasty filling.
Archetypes
4th Wall Blurring
Although it is not explicit in the film, it is widely accepted in fanon that Jack allegorically represents Disney, or at the very least large media corporations absorbing smaller properties. Jack sticks out in the narrative as explicitly not having a character arc, and instead doubling down on his awful nature when given the opportunity to justify his behaviour through his backstory. He seems quite aware of the fairy tale tropes surrounding him, but throws them away to focus on becoming more powerful.
Brick Shithouse/Tall
Jack is currently the tallest villain in the Shrek franchise - spin-offs included - and he is almost as wide as he is tall. Jack breaks the traditional Sexyman mold by being a fabulously fat man with a super long torso, gigantic hands, and comparitively tiny dancer's legs. The elegance with which he moves combined with his staggering physical size and strength are prime reasons for Jack becoming an object of lust.
Capitalist
Jack is incredibly wealthy; he lives in a mansion, owns a thriving baked goods empire, and has a large staff of loyal, trained assassins under his control (The Baker's Dozen). Likewise, he has plenty of money to hire mercenaries to hunt down his desired magical artefacts. He is even shown to own the still-functional severed hand of King Midas himself.
Chaoslord
The methods of violence Jack employs are all magical in nature, and involve a great deal of randomness and chaos. Whether it's beating up The Three Bears by golf-smacking them with Excalibur or exploding people into confetti using a crossbow loaded with unicorn horns, Jack revels in chaos and enjoys destruction and bloodshed.
Controversial
He's probably the most evil character in the entire Shrek franchise.
Criminal
Jack is a through-and-through criminal; our very first introduction to Jack even shows off his wanted poster! Using hired guns to obtain magical artefacts through a great deal of murderous activity, Jack's possessions are largely obtained by unethical or illegal practices, or are otherwise morally bankrupt by nature. This includes his collection of baby unicorn horns, which appear to have been harvested from the 'horses' that pull his carriage, his ship-in-a-bottle containing many still-living Lilliputians, the severed hand of King Midas, and a phoenix that he keeps in a birdcage and uses as an unwilling flamethrower.
Cosmic
Jack is obsessed with finding the Wishing Star: a fallen star capable of granting anyone's wish. In the climax of the film, Jack participates in an epic final battle with Puss, Kitty, Perrito, Goldie and The Three Bears, using the Wishing Star as a platform. After being defeated, he is swallowed by the collapsing star and presumably dies.
Dealmaker
Jack is shown to make deals with his hired guns in exchange for traditional payment. For instance, Jack agrees to give The Serpent Sisters their weight in gold for their finding the map to the Wishing Star, but Jack tricks them by using King Midas' hand to turn one sister into gold, thereby technically fulfilling his end of the bargain.
Distinctive Voice
Jack is voiced by John Mulaney, and his whiny, aggressive, high-pitched voice is extremely distinctive. His voice adds a great deal of humour to his character, but also provides an interesting contrast when he becomes threatening.
Dominating
Perhaps the most significant contributing factor to his Sexyman status; Jack dominates everyone around him with ease. He boasts an army of trained assassins (in particular his 'Bakers Dozen') who are all willing to lay down their lives for Jack (often doing so), as well as enduring tremendous physical and emotional pain for him. In a literal sense, Jack is huge - canonically the tallest villain in the whole Shrek franchise - with a Kingpin-like, broad-shouldered frame, a large gut, and enormous hands. Jack also interacts with the world around him in an aggressive manner: he shows little care for his coveted magical objects, swings about extremely heavy weapons with ease, and is not above shooting puppies in the face with a crossbow.
Egotistical
Jack has a very high opinion of himself and what he deserves. When Gemini Stewart (the knock-off Jiminy Cricket who judges Jack's character) attempts to prod for Jack's backstory, Jack tells him all he wants is to own all of the magic in the world, and not leave a bit for anyone else. In addition, the way Jack treats others - that is, with a complete disregard for the value of life - signifies his general egocentrism.
Hot-Headed
In no time at all, we are introduced to Jack's famously short temper. He has no tolerance for people who get in his way, and routinely becomes irate with those who work for him when they are not quick or efficient enough, or if they do not live up to his standards.
Intelligence
Jack's intelligence is of the sinister variety. He runs a criminal empire as the underside to a seemingly legitimate pie business, and is able to accrue a great deal of priceless magical artefacts whilst cheating his hired guns out of their promised pay.
Knife murder
Jack is nothing if not a blood-hungry, weapons-adept, murder-happy monster of a man, and has been praised as one of the first unapologetically homicidal villains seen in a big-budget animated movie for quite some time. Whether he's threatening to shoot Perrito, a literal puppy, in the face with a crossbow or allowing his own men to be devoured by carnivorous flowers, Jack is incredibly comfortable with murder, and even seems to take a sick pleasure in it at times.
Power
Power is the cornerstone of Jack's identity. Following his being snubbed as the central character of the Little Jack Horner nursery rhyme, Jack rebuilds his identity as 'Big' Jack Horner: a physically huge and intimidating man with an incredible amount of control, and zero conscience concerning his terrible actions. He actively hoards powerful magical artefacts for his own personal gain, and explicitly does not want anyone else to partake in the power of magic. Whilst seemingly motivated in some part by wealth according to his flashback, it is power which Jack craves the most.
Upper-Class
Jack was raised in a mansion in a wealthy family, and inherited their lucrative pie-making business. He views these things as "worthless crap."
Urban Legend Aesthetic
A little bit of a deviation, but Jack's origins within the Little Jack Horner nursery rhyme qualify him for folkloric status, which is urban legend-adjacent.
Villain
In a movie with multiple "bad guys," it has been hotly debated by the fandom as to who counts as an actual villain as opposed to an antagonist: seemingly the only thing that everyone can agree on is that Jack is indisputably a villain. He is callous, devoid of morals, quick to anger, utterly without remorse and loves causing pain and suffering. This is why Jack is being lauded as a return to form for truly bad villains - a character you love to hate.
Well-Dressed
Jack is a very well-dressed man; his ensemble includes a deep plum-coloured suit and tie replete with a waistcoat, a magnificent long coat in the same shade, and some decadently stylish black heeled boots. He is undoubtedly a Suitguy, and an extra-fashionable one at that: note the pie pattern on his waistcoat!

do you think Ghost has to deal with fans of The Guardian? like, not because they'd be annoyed or bothered but because every time he lets someone talk to them it either ends up with them killing a giant monster, delving into some ruin for a lost gun, or them giving away a billion-glimmer exotic sparrow that doesn't fit their Latest Aesthetic TM
I've honestly never thought of this before, mostly because there's no actual interactions with the Guardian and civilians of the Last City- which in turn makes it intruiguing to think about because yeah how WOULD the godslayer of the cosmos interact with ordinary human beings that are not undead corpses ressurected by a giant cosmic golf ball, but also goddamn it Bungie even if I enjoy the leeway you give for us to insert our own Guardians into situations, I really want to see the undead killing machine interacting with your genaric citydweller. Give us an idea of what the people think of the Guardian, how their culture inteacts with them, and what sort of social othering that Guardians might feel which keeps them locked to the tower and Guardian-Guardian interactions. Ik human mortals DO interact with them, but they're never your average joe, so that kind of makes gauging how that works to be impossible
My gut reaction would be that letting the Guardian meet civilians might not be a major issue, because the Young Wolf, as their name implies, is the loyal hound of the City and thus deals with its problems when called upon (or offered a shiny enough firearm), and so civilians just don't have anything that will actually make them do stupid shit, hence Ghost doesn't have to keep them on a kiddie collar to prevent them from running off and getting themselves into Situations. However, I CAN see some Guardians getting into trouble reguardless, so here's some things that my pack and their Ghosts have to deal with if they encounter civilians:
Marcelline (titan): Would want to show off her skills to impress the kiddos and/or is easily goaded into it if prompted, which causes obvious problems when you put your mind to it. Would also eagerly flirt with any girls fawning over her and would need her ghost to go get her half-brother Aeris to drag her away before she gets attatched. Marcie's outgoing and enthusiastic, but she also wears her heart on her sleeve and that can get her into trouble sometimes. The trouble almost always lands on her alone, but still. Getting attatched to someone who will grow old without you is never fun.
Aeris: The most stick-in-the-mud hunter to ever exist, except for one detail: he's always interested in testing his limits and does not give a shit what it'll do to him in the process. People might find him extremely intimidating and unapproachable at first, but the second someone asks if Guardians have a higher alcohol tolerance than normal humans, he's heading down to the pub with them to try to figure it out. Just because he looks like he's a cold motherfucker with excellent self-control doesn't necessarily mean that it's true.
Petrichor-12: Immidiatly goes into formal guard duty mode on instinct and makes everyone uncomfortable with how clipped and serious they are even though they're really just Extremely Aware of how fragile human beings are and want to make the tower look good. They also spend a lot of time in the Eliksni quarter, so the public opinion on them might be a little...split.

I noticed you tagged the "cat" post as "OC: Living Creature." I don't think that's at all the same as my "cats" tag and I'd love to know if this is more of a concept or character and anything you'd be willing to share or link me to. Hope you're having a good day too!
hey there! i do have an answer for you, but it may be a little more than what you bargained for...nonetheless i hope it satiates your curiosity! down below are mentions and a depiction of,
cw: cults, implied torture, gore
proceed carefully ^^
“the living creature” is one of my ocs! their true name is mishenka, and they are the child of a poacher who was killed by a vengeful, demonic tiger spirit. years pass, and the child became involved in a pact with the tiger, serving as its vessel that would attract the attention of a cult who demanded to witness the glory of “the great beast”. being young and impressionable, mishenka did not have the means to fight against the crowd for as much as they wished to—they succumbed.
eventually mishenka would be saved by a man named solis, a royal sorcerer of what was known as kuviel's court, and although they were used as a study (and experiment) for the sorcerer's endeavors, they did not mind. they would earn the title of, “the living creature” from solis himself, for mishenka's beating heart was interconnected with a demon that once walked as a mortal tiger.
beyond the wheels that chariot God's throne, bronze hands imbue eternity with secret perfumes: the laughing darkness of Sophia moulds itself to this strange attendant's wings, to its many eyes, its many mouths; it caresses the space between them, tenders the flesh with a soft lover's touch. it asks: for how long will you oil the aches of the world, Not-One? for how long will you lust? the attendant does not answer. it was not gifted with a voice.
Tumblr media
.
.
.
but this is not the “living creature” that is the focal point of my tags. the original, mishenka, is part of a doomed timeline caused by the same sorcerer that had saved them and the other twelve confidants, “godtongue” being among them. no matter their efforts to put an end to solis' horrors, all thirteen members would eventually perish every time the timeline repeated.
this issue was brought to the attention of cosmic beings, who devised a plan to grant the confidants an opportunity. although this world, cibruthea, would be eternally doomed, there will be a chance for children born of earth to put an end to it. they will not know of cibruthea, nor any cosmic horror, but their world will be inevitably altered by the events that have occurred and they will inevitably take notice to it.
the plan was for remnants of each member's soul to watch earth's events unfold until they have found their respective child to receive their favor in the same prophesized timeframe.
mishenka never succeeded in dealing in fair trade with the demon, nor have they ever been able to stand freely on their own. they wished for someone to live out the life they hoped for; they wanted to see who they could've become had it not been for the greed of mankind. their goal was to seek someone like them, born with a bond to a spectral beast, and to indirectly bring them aid.
the new living creature is named khoussanë. although human, many mistake her to be a demon—her appearance and mannerisms are altered by her own deal made with such beast. she's playful, down-to-earth, and is similar to a loyal puppy in the body of a monstrous wolf who will rightfully defend her family til her last breath.

The world of music has been transformed by technology in countless ways, enabling artists to create sounds and genres that were once unimaginable. One of the newer innovations in music is the use of cosmic sound, a genre that blends traditional music with audio recordings from space. This new style of music has become increasingly popular, revolutionizing the music industry. Cosmic sound is produced by combining audio recordings from space with traditional music. These recordings often come from space agencies such as NASA, and are created from electromagnetic waves and other phenomena detected by satellites and probes. Musicians then blend these recordings with traditional instruments and electronic sounds, creating a unique and mesmerizing auditory experience. The concept of cosmic sound has been around for decades, but recent advances in technology have made it more accessible to the general public. With the rise of streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music, music fans around the world can now discover and enjoy this new genre from the comfort of their own homes. One of the pioneers of cosmic sound is the musician Dan Pound. His albums, such as "Medicine Bag" and "Wolf Moon," have gained a loyal following and critical acclaim. Pound's use of space recordings, coupled with his electronic and traditional instrumentation, creates an ethereal and otherworldly sound that transports the listener to another realm. Another artist who has gained popularity in the cosmic sound genre is Ulrich Schnauss. Schnauss' music is characterized by lush, ambient textures that blend synthesizers, guitar, and piano with field recordings from space. His album "A Long Way To Fall" is a standout example of cosmic sound, and has earned him comparisons to iconic electronic artists such as Brian Eno. Cosmic sound has become a tool for mindfulness and relaxation, allowing listeners to escape the stresses of everyday life and experience something truly awe-inspiring. The use of cosmic sound in meditation and yoga sessions has become increasingly popular, with fans of the genre praising its ability to create a deeply immersive and calming environment. From an SEO perspective, the appeal of cosmic sound is that it offers something different and unique to fans of traditional music. With thousands of new songs and albums released every week, it can be difficult for artists to stand out in a crowded market. But by blending space recordings with traditional instrumentation, musicians have found a way to create an entirely new sound that captures the imagination of fans everywhere. As the world of music continues to evolve, it's certain that fans will be treated to new and exciting genres. But it's hard to imagine anything quite as captivating as cosmic sound. By utilizing the incredible recordings and data from space exploration, musicians have created a truly out-of-this-world sound that is revolutionizing the industry. The Cosmic Sound: How Space Music is Revolutionizing the Music Industry

you said kishi wrote a gay love story on purpose saying that the fact they invested so much in a 15 year long project is proof,
so why do all that and then ruin it at the end? have them be het, have children and create all that? what happened to the story 'they were so invested in'??
😳 Because it's shounen? What, did you expect them to get married in some gay ass ceremony with Sakura as their flower girl? Did you think they would kiss and Konoha would wolf whistle and throw rice at their heads? Did you really think that, that was a possibility? What are you even asking me? Guess you are new to my blog.
I will not repeat myself for your benefit, but you are welcome to go through my blog, the trials and tribulations of Kishi to continue writing a gay love story till the end, I repeat till the end because the last chapter is so utterly out of sync with preceding 699 chapters, you asking me this question seems almost surreal to me. But have at it.
However, it's not like having them be married to women and having children with them is such a proof of heterosexuality. No. The proof is in the narrative so fully rich with poetically and aesthetically placed nuances and twists and turns that assimilate so seamlessly with the development of Sasuke and Naruto's characters, that I don't have to look at a poorly manufactured and ridiculously inferior attempt of continuing to milk a gargantuan franchise for any fucking proof. Yes, that's what Boruto is.
And bless Kishi, who could have chosen to finally write Naruto and Sasuke as heterosexual in the sequel, but my dude still writes them like they are in love with each other while their actual wives either make do with twelve year long absences or sleep on their beds alone. We really don't need to know any of this for Boruto's sake but we still keep getting bombarded with throwbacks to SNS moments from part one and two. You think the producers aren't aware of this??
Look. It's really not that difficult a deduction. Like I always say, work with what you have. Solid facts. The fact is Kishimoto wrote 699 chapters dedicated to a love story between two male characters and that he didn't leave any stone unturned to tell us how they were made for each other visually, symbolically, narratively, like cosmic freaking lovers and this is all literally text. The haphazardly applied band aid that is the last chapter doesn't overturn any of that. Any conscientious reader or viewer should be able to see that.
People underestimate the process in which stories are written. Which is to say that they often ignore the deliberation with which an author decides to give us information about the plot and the characters. They don't question it, well if you don't question it, you won't understand it.
The fact is Kishimoto mindfully wrote a vastly intricate narrative that gently but routinely and firmly urged the audience to evaluate and revaluate the nature of Sasuke and Naruto's relationship in order to process the progression of the story. It is so well assimilated in this medium defined genre (shounen), that a younger, more inexperienced audience may still enjoy it without noticing the details that are so obvious, they are easy to miss. But a more mature audience will notice it. And marvel at the obviousness of the fine details. Naruto and Sasuke's story is a poetry of paradoxes. And trust me, it's a privilege to understand it in its finer details. I don't call it one of the greatest love stories in the world for nothing.
It's a coming of age story as well. Coming of age stories don't always end positively. Boruto does not read like a positive ending to me. Not for Naruto and Sasuke, the two heroes and survivors, who look so perennially dejected and defeated, Kishi makes a point of it. Why? Does this not scream investment? Why still be loyal to consistent characterization in a sequel that is not even about the two characters anymore?
Sigh...
The proof is in the pie. Like, please look nowhere else. It's all in there, just be more open, a bit curious. It's in text, subtext, visuals, like tbh, what I don't understand is how you miss it...

Transformers thoughts
The Autobots and Decepticons have different character archetypes that keep appearing in different iterations and this isn't complete and there's usually some overlap but here's what I've got:
Autobot archetypes:
The "Prime"/Leader.
The Rookie.
The Cranky old one who's seen some shit (Usually, but not always the medic).
The aloof, brooding lone wolf type character with a backstory.
The gung-ho, lovable idiot/muscle of the team.
The one who loves Earth (Or Alien cultures if they're in space).
The "Cool one" who kids who don't like the Rookie latch onto sometimes introduced later on for the "Sixth Power Ranger effect".
Decepticon archetypes.
The Leader.
The obviously treacherous, yet cosmically ill-fated one.
The Mad Scientist.
The Dangerously Competent One, the character who could assume the role of leader either through chain of command or by being a better traitor than the obvious traitor.
The Honourable Warrior, the villain who feels out of place due to having a code that they will not deviate from, a character that will, or at least show the potential to change sides when the villains cross lines they can't.
The Brute, the dim-witted but loyal and obedient muscle of the team who can shift from slapstick comic relief to absolutely powerhouse in seconds.
The monster, similar to the brute but usually added later, after the Brute has degraded as a villain; this character has less comedic moments and is basically always a threat just by being present.
So let's make this interesting shall we?
Tell me who, if you were making TF series, you would put in each role and to keep it from being predictable I'm gonna say: No Optimus, Megatron, Starscream or Bumblebee and no Beast Wars characters.

Odaiba Memorial Day 2021
My first Odaiba Memorial Day while being an active part of the fandom, and it’s high time I write an essay about my crackhead obsession with Yakari.
Tumblr media
(*There will be some swearing & f-bombs in this post) As a kid, Yamato was like the ‘blue and cooler Taichi’ to me, like he doesn’t exist without being adjacent to the gogglehead. Also my family didn’t have the full Dark Masters arc in our CD collection, so I literally knew nothing about Yams’ emotional meltdown. But now, I adore this overly sensitive dork, and I don’t mean that in a derogatory way. Maybe I’m biased in this reading, but I think Yamato has had to push himself to mature faster than his peers; and he’s very much a mini-adult at a young age. For all these grand monster battles, the main cast are still children; among them Yamato is a kid dealing with a lot of unresolved issues but he’s got a lot of heart, he’s passionate about those he holds dear but he just doesn’t know how to process this. Another thing that goes hand-in-hand with Yamato is the fact he’s a musician. Again, I could be reaching way into my ass here; but there’s this mumbo jumbo real life idea of the ‘depressed creative’, and Yamato works his way out of that dangerously romanticised label. The kid’s got a passion for music, he’s literally been playing the harmonica since Takeru was in diapers .Without spoiling DA:LEK, Yamato still holds onto that flame into adulthood but it’s not something he can actively work on; and that takes its toll. I love Yamato because he’s someone who cares so much about those around him and what he does; and he’s just a kid who’ sorting things out and wanting to better himself and well fuck, if that isn’t relateable. Even with the flaws that the Tri films have, I think it’s a natural progression for Yamato’s character journey. I see people saying how ‘they just turned him into a tsundere’ or ‘he’s so snappish now’. But seeing as most of the Tri cast are in High School and general teenagers are assholes to each other, yeah it’s not unreasonable to see why Yamato’s the way he is now. He didn’t lose his touch with the Crest of Friendship; when the literal world is up in flames, there’s still the same loyal and compassionate Yamato who understands the importance of being there for and with his friends. Yamato’s a big mushy boy who has a hard time conveying what he feels and his needs; Hikari isn’t any better and this was how I grew to love the concept of them being together. She’s not the Chosen Child of Light for nothing, Hikari’s symbiotic partnership with Tailmon is a very shoehorned metaphor of being an angel from Heaven and I absolutely eat that shit up. Fans have pointed out Hikari’s so mysterious with her role and powers as late member of the team, the same can be said for her personality. You see Hikari, you think ‘sweet, little girl’ and in part thanks to the 02 dub, she grows into being this sassy brat. 
A brat who has trouble asserting herself and is prone to literally get dragged into an ocean of depression. Like any respectful human, Hikari cares for her friends and family; but a mixture of that and a tendency to devalue herself is Hikari’s fatal flaw. She’s too self-sacrificing to a fault, and this reflects the other extreme end of her crest. In my own overly pretentious words, I think Hikari has self-imposed on herself for ‘being the light of the team’; like she carries herself as a doll whose job is to bring others out of darkness when she’s still stuck in the shadows herself. Hikari doesn’t allow herself to verbalise her wants, let alone her needs because she doesn’t want to inconvenience others; she just goes with the flow and puts on a mask of toxic optimism. 
I am aware this analyse could be me scraping the bottom of the barrel, but it’s how I interpreted Yamato and Hikari’s character; and now I’ll articulate my brain rot  with how the fuck are these two being shipped.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You have these two people who already have this history and experience of being Chosen Children, but there’s also an underlying sub-connection of them being each other’s brothers’ best friend. As many Yakari fanfics have headcanon, it’s not unreasonable to think that Yamato’s at the Yagamis’ apartment frequently because A) Taichi is his best friend and B) The Ishida apartment is prolly empty ‘cause Hiroaki’s out being a workaholic. The Yagamis become the family that Yamato didn’t have growing up, and they welcome him with open arms. At their apartment, things are warm and rowdy, he doesn’t have to be alone with his thoughts and they treat him as a second son. Listen, I've been a diehard Takari shipper too, but I genuinely think Takeru and Hikari can be platonic soulmates. They know each other like the back of their hand, they’re cosmically entwined and their Digimon are in sync; they’re also legit a pair of best friends too. I know early 2000’s fics depict Yakari as being this big drama; but I have a weak heart and I’m here to say Yakari can be cosy and comforting and they’re just two idiots in love who need to be honest with each other.
I imagine their courtship not to be this grand display of fireworks and ‘the chase’, but a very subtle experience with slow burn. For me, Yakari is very much the first blossom of spring. They represent new beginnings and youth, the gentle lull of Mother Nature tending to the earth, something that’s natural but the routine has existed for centuries. Yakari is very much a gentle love, and with everything I’ve said about their characters; these two learn to embrace and nurture the other until they have a whole garden of spring’s blossoms. 
This crackship has the surface-layer appeal of ‘brooding lone wolf’ and ‘sweet angel’, so when you peel the layers to find these two very private characters who just need that one-on-one reassurance/affirmation; this ship is a warm blanket of fluff and yes that’s basically the plot of my fics. It’s the charm of slice-of-life, the endearment of growing and improving yourself with the one you love with the occasional reminder that this is a series founded on puppies evolving into angels. 
I’ve had enough of tragedies and melodramatic love affairs. I write about Yakari because as cliche as this sounds, I want more stories about ‘the light of friendship’. Yes that was a god awful line, but it captures why I have brain rot for this pair. To celebrate my first OMD, I have uploaded a special chapter on my AO3 fic titled ‘Mon ange’; it wouldn’t be August 1st if I didn’t half-hazardly work on this leading up to the big day. It couldn’t fit on Instagram, but this rambling piece is part of a bigger essay on my tumblr, so that’s also up and running. I hold Digimon near and dear to my heart, and I go about sharing that love by gushing about Yakari.

Characters That Might Be Introduced in Young Justice Season 4: Phantoms
This is just my own personal speculation, based on what I think might happen in Season 4 and what YJ has given us so far. I’m sure that I’ve missed plenty of characters that others 100% believe or know will be making an appearance...but, I can’t do anything about that. 
While the majority of the characters on this list are ones we haven’t met before, there are a few we have met in the show - I included these characters, because I think they might be added to the ever-growing roster of heroes or have a more prominent role to play. 
This is really long, but I had fun doing it and I hope you enjoy it. 
Characters We've Met Already
Part I: Prominent Future Role
     M’comm M’orzz/Ma'alefa'ak
Tumblr media
M’gann’s younger brother who wants to start a white revolution on Mars. We met him in season 3 during the episode of “Away Mission,” where he was a major focal point.
There are a couple of factors for why I think he’ll play a prominent role.
He’s M’gann’s younger brother and as several people have speculated upon, this season’s tagline of “Phantoms” might be in reference to our main characters’ own personal phantoms from their pasts, rather than literal ghosts. Also given how M’gann has a new little brother in Gar, who was given more prominence last season – there could be something there.
M’Comm wants to start a White Revolution and we know M’gann, Conner, J’onn, and Gar (I believe) will be heading to Mars, either before or at the beginning of Season 4. Since J’onn/Martian Manhunter is usually the last Green Martian – some dark stuff may be awaiting our heroes on Mars or occur while they’re there.
I think he’ll play a significant role in the upcoming season. 
     Jason Todd/Red Hood
Tumblr media
Jason is a prominent member of the Batfamily and we’ve already learned that he was the Robin after Dick, but died before Season 2 began. 
In Season 3 – he was also an easter egg in “Nightmare Monkeys,” where he died in Beast Boy’s mind, along with other fallen comrades.
More importantly, in “Rescue Op,” we actually met him as the Red Hooded Ninja on Infinity Island. Towards the end of that episode there was attention given to the fact that he recognized Dick and therefore his memory was returning.
I can definitely see him having a more significant part in the future. He would most likely be Dick’s main phantom, if that’s the case for Season 4. 
     Big Barda
Tumblr media
One of Granny’s most loyal generals and the leader of the furies before she defects against Darkseid. We were introduced to her in Season 3, in “Influence" - she fought against the Justice League, but more importantly she was saved by Superman. While it’s clear that Granny hurting her or being willing to sacrifice her is par for the course, it seemed pretty clear (to me) that Superman reshaped her outlook on life. 
We never saw her again, so more than likely she defected after Superman saved her.
Given her usual importance to the plot of Darkseid as well as the fact that her main love interest is Scot Free – I think there is more than a good chance we’ll see her again in Season 4.
--
In the third season, each of these characters were introduced in a single episode. Given their significant relationships to either a character or a plot element that is important to Young Justice - it seems more than likely we’ll see them play a larger role in the upcoming season.
Part II: Minor Future Role
     Harper Rowe/Bluebird
Tumblr media
She was a minor character in Season 3, but she was also pretty prominent. Given that she’s a hero in the comics, I can see Harper being a new hero added to the roster. I can’t say how prominent she’ll actually be, but I can definitely see her playing a minor role.    
     Courtney Whitmore/Stargirl
Tumblr media
Courtney is a pretty prominent young hero in DC and she made several appearances in Season 3 – with her show (Stargirl) where she reported and interviewed young heroes. So, maybe she’ll have decided instead of just interviewing heroes, she’ll become one herself. 
     Cisco Ramon/Vibe
Tumblr media
For a character who was just being bullied they paid a decent amount of attention to him. Now maybe he was just a prominent Easter Egg for fans (CW’s The Flash), but it could also be YJ laying some slight ground work for him in the future.
     Cassandra Cain/Orphan
Tumblr media
Orphan is a member of the Batfamily and her mother is Lady Shiva - The Light’s new enforcer, who we got to know decently well in Season 3. Because of that, I think there could be something there to explore in Season 4.
-- 
I don’t really think any of these guys will be major characters, but I’m betting we’ll at least see them in the background as heroes. Similar to how Stephanie Brown and others were introduced as easter eggs and then in the following season we saw them working as heroes.
In addition, there are of course other minor hero/super-powered characters whom we’ve already met (Arrowette, Spoiler, Mist etc.) and any one of them could get more screen time, it’s honestly anyone’s guess; I just don’t have anything specific to speculate about for them.
Characters We Haven’t Met 
Part I: Legion of Super-Heroes/Time Travel
Based on the idea that the Legion of Super-Heroes and time travel could play a significant role in Season 4 – which is based on how season 3 ended with an unknown woman wearing a Legion Ring. 
Legion of Super-Heroes
The Legion of Super-Heroes are a superhero team from the 31st Century; they are similar to The Justice League, but they protect and defend the United Planets. 
     Tinya Wazzo/Phantom Girl
Tumblr media
Phantom Girl is a member of the Legion, so based off that and her name, there’s a decent chance we’ll meet her. I can’t say how big of role she’ll actually have, but I feel confident in saying this season won’t be named after her; it’ll just be fun little tie-in, if she does make an appearance.
     Querl Dox/Brainiac 5
Tumblr media
Brainiac is a very prominent member of the Legion and knowing that they will play some role, it’s not a stretch to say he’ll also play a role. 
Brainiac 5, or at least in the WB animated show, was the inventor of the Legion Ring, as well as the ability to time-travel. 
Given his relation to one of Superman’s greatest enemies, Brainiac, who could definitely be a threat to both the League and The Light (if Brainiac even appears), I can definitely see Brainiac 5 playing a role. 
But, just his promience within the Legion is enough reason to speculate he’ll make an apperance.
     Imra Ardeen/Saturn Girl
Tumblr media
Given Saturn Girl’s usual importance and prominence to the Legion (founding member), plus the fact that it was a waitress wearing the ring – it could very well have been her at the end of Season 3.
And even if it wasn’t her, she will still likely make an apperance. 
Other Members of the Legion of Super-Heroes who we could meet: Lightning Lad, Cosmic Boy, Bouncing Boy, Triplicate Girl, Timber Wolf, Chameleon Boy, etc.
     Michael Carter/Booster Gold
Tumblr media
Booster Gold is a pretty popular character who has appeared in many other works and is intrinsically linked with time-travel. On top of that, he typically has (or had) a good friendship with the old Blue Beetle (Ted Kord), so maybe we’ll see some reverse-mentor relationship with him and Jaime, the new Beetle – Jaime teaching him what it actually means to be a hero.
In general, I think he would just be a fun and new kind of personality to be brought in. 
     Future Kids (Lian Nguyen-Harper, Damian Wayne, Jon Kent, Tornado Twins, etc).
Tumblr media
Given how time-travel will possibly be an element in Season 4, I think there’s a chance we’ll have an episode set in the future, starring the next generation of heroes. Maybe not all the kids we saw in “Home Fires,” but probably some of them.
Part II: The Phantom Zone  
I have the theory that Granny’s X-Pit is a type of Phantom Zone or at least based off the real thing.
Granny herself even called the pit the Ghost Dimension (which just sounds like another name for the Phantom Zone). So, it seems very likely to me that given the title of Season Four, the prominence of The Phantom Zone in DC, and how the X-Pit worked in YJ -- that The Phantom Zone will make an appearance in season 4, if not play an important part.
There could be lots of ways they could incorporate it into the show.
Maybe it works as a prison. The prison cells are like the red boxes Granny used to protect herself and thus there’s no chance of prisoners escaping the Zone, because if they try leave their cells, they’ll experience excruciating pain
Depending on how the Phantom Zone would work in in YJ, I feel like those who escape the Phantom Zone or are from there, could be called Phantoms.
While I do personally think the tagline Phantoms will refer to our main heroes’ own personal phantoms, the tagline could also be in reference to other elements of the season (like the Phantom Zone).
      Kara Zor-El/Supergirl
Tumblr media
Supergirl is an important and popular character in the DC and given the prominence of the Batfamily in YJ, it seems a bit odd that the Superfamily is rather lacking in comparison. 
Supergirl has been a part of the Legion of Super-Heroes and due to her popular CW Show - she is more recently associated with the Phantom Zone. In her show, she ended up being stuck in the Phantom Zone which is why she arrived on Earth so much later than Clark. YJ could do something like that or maybe she’ll have been stuck in the Phantom Zone until the 31st Century. 
The introduction of Supergirl could be an interesting storyline in association with Conner (and Clark). We know that Clark has been interested in finding other Kryptonians and Kara is certainly more than just another Kryptonian.
She’s also a likely candidate to be the waitress who was wearing the Legion Ring. 
     Mon-El
Tumblr media
A Daxxamite who’s a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes and is also strongly associated with the Phantom Zone. Given how in Season 1, Superman thought that Shazam and Icon were potential Kryptonians, there could be something interesting there with Mon-El – especially since his species are so similar to Kryptonians.
In the comics, Mon-El had been inspired by Superboy into becoming a hero, but he was put in the Phantom Zone because he had an incurable disease; he was later saved by Brainiac 5 in the 31st Century. So that could be another potential storyline for Superboy in Season 4.
Mon-El has also gotten some more recognition in recent years, due to his role in CW’s Supergirl.
Also, when I was looking up a picture for him to use, I learned that there is another version of Mon-El, where he is a descendent of House El/Superman. 
So maybe that version will be introduced instead of the Daxxamite one, I don’t know. 
     Zod Trio -- Zod, Ursa, Non
Tumblr media
I don’t actually think these guys will be important to Season 4, if even they are introduced. But they are important Superman Villains and they’re usually connected with the Phantom Zone – given how many continuities they are prisoners of said Zone. 
So, it seemed silly to not speculate about them at least making an appearance or small cameo, if not something more. 
Part III: Darkseid and Meta-Trafficking  
     Scott Free/Mister Miracle
Tumblr media
Scott or Scot is Darkseid’s adopted son and the biological son of Highfather, so it feels safe to say that he’ll be a part of the show at some point. Especially, given the increase prominence of Darkseid as well as how much we’ve seen of the New Gods, Motherboxes/Fatherboxes, and the two worlds of New Genesis and Apokolips.
Scot is a defector of Apokolips or more accurately was never broken by the place. He is known for being able to escape any imprisonment - particularly Granny’s Orphanage/X-Pit, so if there’s a return of the X-Pit, Scot would be a great asset to our heroes.
Given how we’ve been introduced to the X-Pit quite thoroughly in Season 3, I think that Scot’s ability to free himself would be all the more impressive, and a quick way to establish this new character and his skills. 
In addition, while we didn’t meet the real Orion, we do know that he exists in this universe. Orion is the adopted son of Highfather and the biological one of Darkseid. In the comics, Scot and Orion were traded as part of a Peace Treaty between the worlds of New Genesis and Apokolips. 
Basically, he’s due to make an apperance. 
     Princess Koriand’r of Tamaran/Starfire
Tumblr media
The plots of Season 2 and 3 were largely focused on the kidnapping, experimenting, and trafficking of meta-human children/teenagers, so given all of that - Starfire seems very likely to be included in YJ.
Or at the very least, YJ has laid down the groundwork for her to be introduced - whether or not they’ll use that, we’ll have to see.
Starfire’s origin is that she is a Tamerean Princess who was taken and experimented on, which resulted in her gaining powers (more powers). So, in the YJ universe she would essentially be a Meta-Tamerean. 
Starfire could be a great way to show that the Meta-Gene exploitation isn’t just an earth/human problem anymore, as many more beings across the universe are being experimented on and turned into living weapons.
Thus, expanding upon the trafficking story thread that was introduced in Season 3. 
In general, Starfire’s origin story fits very well with the trafficking/meta-experimenting storylines that we’ve gotten so far and I think her presence would add something new.
Given the popularity of Teen Titans and the prominence of Nightwing, Beast Boy, and Cyborg in YJ, it seems more than likely that Star will be a character in the show. 
Also, we know that Arsenal will be on the Covert Team and that Jason is alive, so maybe if Star is introduced, we’ll see a version of the Outlaws in YJ. Which could be fun. 
Finally, she is one of Nightwing’s main love interests, so there could be some personal drama to be had, if the show goes down that route, which they may not. 
Starfire obviously doesn’t have to be a love interest for Nightwing to be added into the story. 
While I love RobStar (+ Dickbabs), I feel like sometimes Star is just limited to being Nightwing’s other girlfriend. So, if she is introduced in YJ, I would not be opposed to other storylines involving her without Nightwing. 
In my personal opinion, not including Star would be such a wasted opportunity, given what YJ has already established so far.
Part IV: Zatanna’s Protégé(s) / Magic-Based Characters
I have a small theory, that magic might play a larger role in season 4. This is mostly based on the fact that magic has been pushed to the background in the past two seasons. Also, the title of ‘Phantoms’ makes me think of the supernatural (aka Magic). 
We also know that Zatanna will have protégés, as in plural. Now she already has Thirteen, so at the very least we can say that one new magical-based character will be introduced to the team or the hero side. 
     The Phantom Stranger
Tumblr media
A mysterious mystic who battles supernatural forces. It’s unlikely he’ll be a protégé for Zatanna, but I mentioned him first, because of his name. Which is the main reason for why I think he, out of all the magical characters in DC, could make an appearance.
Similar to Phantom Girl, I don’t think the season’s tagline will come from his name, but it might just be a nice little tie-in regardless.
     Eddie Bloomberg/Kid Devil aka Red Devil
Tumblr media
Blue Devil has made a few minor appearances in Seasons 1 & 2 and given how Kid Devil was once his sidekick in the comics, I think there’s a decent chance Red Devil we’ll make an appearance.
He’s a character who I think many people might not know about or at least not a lot about; and YJ does like to shine a light on those characters.
Eddie started out as human kid/teenager who became Kid Devil - sidekick to Blue Devil. He ended up making a deal with a demon and got demonic powers and looks to match - possibly related to that, he had a falling out with Blue Devil and stopped being his sidekick.
I’m pretty fuzzy on the details of his story, as I’m not super familiar with his character; but the broad strokes that I do know, I think could really work for YJ.
He starts  out as the sidekick of Blue Devil (maybe he knows the team), but he has a falling out with Blue or goes off on his own – and gets his demonic powers, becoming Red Devil. Or something like that.
As he becomes Zatanna’s protégé (trying to learn to control his magical powers), he also has to work on his strained relationship with Blue Devil.
It could be a similar story to Red Arrow’s from Season 1, a nice throwback with a new character. And a character who while being new, does already have some slight groundwork laid out for his introduction - with Blue Devil already existing in YJ.
Again, I’m just throwing ideas out here and speculating. 
     Zachary Zatara
Tumblr media
Several people have pointed out that Zachary is a more likely candidate to be Zatanna’s new protégé than Raven is - who was the first person I thought of - given how Zachary is Zatanna’s cousin. 
And yeah, I think there’s a decent enough chance for him becoming a character in Season 4. 
He’s related to a former member of the OG Team and like Eddie, he’s not really a character many people are super familiar with, so that could work in his favor.
It could also be fun to have someone back on the team who has magic like Zatanna and if Zachary was part of the team, we would probably see more of Zatanna – which would be great.
One problem I do have though, is if he does exist in this universe - why didn’t Zatanna move in with his parent(s) (her aunt or uncle) when her father became the host for Doctor Fate.
Of course, that could just be because in season one they had never intended for him to exist in the show, but now things have changed. 
And in Season 2, we were given no indication that Beast Boy had been with the Doom Patrol or that they had died tragic deaths in between the time his mother died and when he joined the team. So yeah....
Zachary is a likely candidate to be added, especially in regard to Zatanna have multiple protégés (or at least 2). 
     Rachel Roth/Raven 
Tumblr media
Unlike Starfire, Raven’s main story arc involving Trigon doesn’t really relate to what has been going on in Young Justice so far. Nonetheless, it seems very likely she’ll be included - given the popularity of TT, plus Nightwing, Beast Boy, and Cyborg being prominent characters. 
Raven  shouldn’t be limited by the existence of Trigon; as you easily have Raven in a story, without Trigon being front and center, in my opinion. And, it would be nice seeing other storylines involving Raven that don’t include Trigon, or at least not having him be a major factor.
There’s nothing specific that makes me think Raven will be introduced in Season 4, but –
She could definitely be Zatanna’s new protégé or at least one of them. And, while in the comics Zatanna and Raven haven’t always gotten along – there’s no reason that has to be the case in YJ. Plus, in Bombshells, Raven is Zatanna’s pseudo/adopted daughter.
Though, I think Raven being the protégé of Doctor Fate might work a bit better. 
Also, in regard to my personal theory that magic will become more prominent, Raven would be a great way to go about doing that, especially with her wide range of powers and abilities. 
While, I don’t think a story needs Trigon to have Raven – her being the daughter of one of the great evils of the universe, could certainly be a bonding element for her and the other heroes who also have supervillain relatives. 
Plus, Raven being the portal to Trigon (this seemingly unstoppable force) could be something interesting to explore in regards to Darkseid’s and the Light’s plans. Maybe Darkseid and the Light would perceive Raven as a major threat and want to get rid of her and perhaps even the good guys would also see her as a threat that needs to be stopped. 
There’s just so much that YJ could do with Raven. And while I would love for her a main or secondary character, I think she could be an interesting neutral party or a single-episode character. 
--
There are many other magical characters that could be introduced to YJ, but it feels silly to list a whole bunch of characters, just because they have magic. 
Part V: Random Characters
     Rose Wilson/Ravager and Joe Wilson/Jericho
Tumblr media
Two of Deathstroke’s children who operate as heroes. I can see a lot being done with these two in YJ, especially with Deathstroke being a member of the Light. They could potentially bond with the other characters who also have supervillain parents and maybe even bond with Tara over the terrible parenting skills of Deathstroke. .
     Natasha Irons/Steel aka Starlight aka Vaporlock
Tumblr media
Natasha is the niece of John Henry Irons/Steel who had a very minor role in Season 3, but nonetheless was introduced to the audience. In addition, Natasha has been associated with Infinity Inc, Lex Luthor’s group of “superheroes” who were also introduced in Season 3.
And while I could be mistaken, as I don’t know much about her, when she was part of Infinity Inc., she was injected with a serum that unlocked her meta-gene, giving her powers.
Natasha could possibly be introduced in Season 4, as a lot of the elements to her story, are already part of Young Justice. 
Green Lanterns
I think there’s a decent chance of us meeting a new Green Lantern, especially a younger one - as they would be a member of the Covert Team or the Outsiders. 
     Jessica Cruz/Green Lantern 
Tumblr media
She's recently been popularized or at least introduced to many fans through the show DC Superhero Girls (2019) and I think if there was a combination of that version and her comic book counterpart – you could have a really compelling character for YJ. 
In the comics, Jess suffers from extreme anxiety, which is such an interesting and unique folly for a Green Lantern to have. And, I just think there’s a lot of story potential to be explored in that dilemma. 
     Keli Quintela/Teen Lantern
Tumblr media
From what I’ve seen of Keli, I think she could be a fun addition. Just for the sheer fact that she uses the Green Lantern power completely different than every other Lantern we’ve seen – that alone is enough reason for her to be added.
     Kyle Raynor
Tumblr media
One of the major Green Lanterns of DC. Like the two ladies above, there’s nothing specific with what we’ve been given so far in YJ to indicate he’ll be included, but I just think because of his status among fans, if the show was to introduce another GL – he has a decent shot.
     Vic Sage/Question
Tumblr media
Since Season 1, I thought Question would be a great addition to the hero side – as the typical conspiracy stuff he obsesses over and discovers to be true, actually does align with what The Light has consistently been doing.
In general, he would be a fun character to add. Also, if we’re thinking of potential new protégés - Vic Sage could be the current Question and there could be a young (or at least somewhat young) Renee Montoya - under his care/tutelage. Or Renee could just be Question - either works for me.
I loved Question in JLU and would love to see him again.
Finally,
Wally West/ Kid Flash (former)
Tumblr media
I think there’s a very good chance we’ll see the return of Wally in Season 4. Especially since Season 3 left us with many little hints that he’s not really dead.
Also, in regards to the idea that the tagline of “Phantoms” could be about the team’s personal ghosts haunting them, well Wally is a ghost for many of our characters - so that fits rather perfectly.
Or, maybe he ended up in the Phantom Zone. Or if ‘Phantoms’ is referring to more literal ghosts, even that still works in regards to Wally, as he’s presumed dead. Or maybe, he was jumped through time and somehow ended up in the 31st century (w/ the Legion of Super-Heroes). 
Maybe I’m wrong, but it just seems very likely Wally will be returning.
--
And now we’re finally done. 
As I’ve mentioned before, this is just my own speculation and I’m sure I’ve missed several characters. Also, I obviously don’t think all of these characters will be introduced in Season 4, but to me they all have somewhat of a chance. 
And yeah...that’s it. 
I hope you enjoyed this extremely long list of characters who I think could be introduced in Season 4 of Young Justice.

📖 alternate dimensions/time travel for Steter (me trying to narrow it down, did it work?)
alternate dimensions/time travel for Steter (me trying to narrow it down, did it work?)
NOW we're cookin! (Pasted it bc as soon as I opened the answer window, your ask disappeared. Might be because of the heading font?)
I've got exactly 1 AU that fits this desc: Survivor's Guilt. (Technically 2, but the second is more of a reincarnation type story)
This story has presented an interesting problem for me, because it's technically Pitch (Peter/Mitch), except Mitch is still Stiles; just Stiles from the future. Obviously he can't tell anyone he's from the future, so he falls back on an old nickname that predates Stiles; this one drawn from his actual name. His parents usually shortened Mieczyslaw to Mitch.
So: Stiles for younger self, and Mitch for future self, but they're both the same person.
The future... does not go well for the pack. They all get killed off one by one, until Stiles is the last one standing 10 years in the future. After he buries the last one, he can't take it anymore. He's the human, he never thought he would be the last one to survive. it's not fair. So he performs some forbidden magic to tear a rift in reality and travel back to the beginning, before it all started. Unfortunately it's not an exact science, so he ends up part way through season 1, once things have already kicked off. And his younger self is damn stubborn; he has to change his plans from staying away from the supernatural at all, to keeping himself and his friends alive.
I'm going to put the rest under a cut and just copy what I have from my notes, because it's much more organized!
Stiles is determined though. Mitch gets there shortly after Scott has been bitten, and the wolf is out of the bag, and Stiles is so fiercely loyal that he won't abandon his best friend. Mitch wants to grab him and shake some sense into him, but he's a stubborn asshole and that won't work. He tries to intervene in other ways when it becomes clear that Stiles will not be put off this course, tries to keep him far away from Derek. And hindsight is 20/20, he's able to prevent a lot of things. But a lot of things still work themselves out anyway, interdimensional lynchpins that will always happen. The Hales will always die, Scott will always get bitten, Stiles will always foolishly fall in love. And Mitch hates it, having to watch Stiles make all these same mistakes over again, because he's already lived them. He's seen the consequences play out, felt the pain of everyone he loves dying horribly, leaving him the only survivor because surviving is what he does, like a fucking cockroach.
The best he can do is try to teach him everything he knows, all the knowledge he's had to pay for with pain and blood, in hopes that it will prepare him for what's coming. And along the way, something starts to unfold between him and Peter and that is just... so complicated. Mitch doesn't want to deal with that, he knows he shouldn't get involved, he's fucked up enough with everything he's doing here, falling in love with Peter is the last thing he should be doing. 10 years ago, when he was still Stiles, bright-eyed and not destroyed by the world, the kid he sees running with wolves like it's no big thing, Mitch wouldn't have even considered it. He remembers how much he hated Peter, always suspicious, watching with a careful eye. It's a distant memory, like the ghost of once-familiar perfume. More fresh is the memory of his grief, when Peter picked the wrong moment to start being altruistic, and got himself killed for it.
But he's not sixteen anymore. He's not the same optimistic kid mooning over Derek's bad boy with a heart of gold schtick, thinking he can fix him and heal the damage done by Kate (and god help him but he did, somehow). He's older and jaded and bitter, and Peter is everything ne needs and doesn't want but does, desperately. Peter, so damaged that being with him is like looking in a mirror, because Mitch has lost everything too, can sympathize with Peter now in a way he never could before. Peter would do anything to get his revenge, and Mitch would risk everything, break every sacred rule of magic, to save the ones he loves.
Peter gravitates to Mitch, drawn to his pain like a moth to flame. There's something so familiar about him, but Mitch keeps everything hidden, doesn't let any of them get close, and Peter has always loved a challenge. A good mystery is just what he needs to focus on, to temper his more murderous impulses. Now that he's older, Mitch is less Stranger Danger and more reluctantly attracted, and it's so easy to let Peter in. To not be alone anymore, after so long. Of course Peter puts it together. He doesn't say anything at first, but he watches, sees the way Mitch and Stiles interact with the world, the way they mirror each other. Mitch isn't nearly so spastic, doesn't talk as much. he's not an anxiety-ridden teen anymore, he's a broken confident adult. But they have some mannerisms that are impossible to mistake, and Peter wonders how no one has put it together yet. Then he remembers that these are stupid puppies; Scott can't be bothered with anything that isn't up Allison's skirt, Boyd and Erica only have eyes for each other, Stiles is too busy not listening to Mitch to hear the way their verbal tics are exactly the same, and Mitch does his best to avoid Derek, the only other one who may notice. It hurts Mitch to be around him, because somewhere, that bright-eyed kid that's dead and buried still loves him, and the pain of losing him will always be an open wound. Scott thought it hurt to break up with Allison, but he doesn't know true loss. But he will. They all will in the end.
Mitch and Chris get on well of course. Chris is the one that trained him into the killer he is now, almost like a second father to him. Aside from Peter, Mitch spends time with Chris, warns him about the dangers Gerard represents, especially towards Allison. Chris isn't one to blindly trust, but he does investigate into the situation when dear old daddy comes kicking around.
And when Mitch sees his dad the first time... It's some innocuous meeting, maybe they're in a bar. They strike up a conversation, John offers to buy a round, and it takes everything in him to maintain his composure when all he wants to do is collapse into John's arms and cry, because the only thing worse than losing Derek was losing his dad, holding him in his arms as he bled out, hearing his breath stop, seeing the light leave his eyes. The nightmares of that night still haunt him.
-
Mitch is gonna feel so conflicted about his attraction to Peter, especially at first. Bc part of him still remembers what it was like to love Derek but there is no way he's touching that with a 10 foot pole even if he's not the same kid that was in love with him, and maybe he wonders if he's just trading in for another Hale? that wouldn't be fair to anyone.
And like that is the least of his concerns, who knows what's going to happen if he starts something with Peter now. But he's been so lonely, starved for touch and affection. And Peter knows, he more than understands. He spent 6 years in a coma, longing for the same thing. He wants to give that to Mitch now, to both of them, if Mitch will just let him
it's a clusterfuck trying to deal with it, and Mitch is trying to fix things, but he doesn't know how. he's not omniscient. All he knows is that something went wrong, Y caused Z but he had no idea about X. He only knows the things he was directly involved in, and there are layers of schemes, unseen factors that will be uncovered this time around as fate continues to set itself straight even as Mitch keeps messing with the timeline
eventually Mitch has to admit that he wants what Peter is offering, desperately. He's not as cold as he pretends to be, and it's stupid to keep denying them both. He's already breaking every cosmic rule by coming back here to change things, and the universe keeps laughing in his face. So he may as well go all in here.
and maybe, briefly, Peter wonders if Mitch still loves Derek. But he doesn't; Stiles died along with the rest of his pack, leaving Mitch in his wake. Everything Stiles was is gone in him not everything, he's still fiercely loyal, hopeful beneath his jaded pessimism, enough to challenge the universe itself like Icarus on his waxen wings nothing left but the memories.
Mitch is reliving his own mistakes getting involved with Peter, just like Stiles is with Derek, and god knows what the consequences will be this time. But they can't be worse than any he's already suffered, the total destruction and devastation of everything he held dear, leaving him a burnt out shell of a man. Peter can empathize. Can't take his pain, but can maybe help to dull it, help shoulder the burden of it, show Mitch that he doesn't have to be alone anymore
And I think I know how stiles figures out Mitch is him: something happens. One day Mitch and Peter are just doing something, it’s a pretty normal day. But then something seemingly innocuous happens and Mitch has a moment of oh shit realization and he just takes off running because Stiles is in danger
Because you know, he doesn’t know the exact dates that things happened, especially in the beginning. It was so long ago. But something will happen, some small thing burned into his memory, and he’ll remember. And he doesn’t get there in time of course, the damage has been done. Leaving stiles with a wound to perfectly match a scar Mitch has from the same incident.
Mitch does manage to avert enough to change the future. But that means he doesn’t become who he is. If the pack doesn’t die, Mitch never comes to be, he never has to come back in time to change things, never falls in love with Peter. So he ceases to exist. But even though he fades away, the memories of him don’t.
-
"We did it," Mitch gasps suddenly, eyes wide like he can't believe it. Something in him shifted, something intrinsic. Like a damn had broken and all of his suffering was washed away by the cool waters of relief and happiness, the kind he hasn't felt in years. Not since before he lost everything. "Peter!" And Peter is watching him with pure, unadulterated excitement, because they've averted the catastrophe that would have befallen the pack without Mitch's intervention.
And then Mitch starts to fade.
Peter is grabbing for him, but his hands pass right through like Mitch is just a ghost, and then there's less than that. His very molecules are ceasing to exist. He doesn't exist anymore, Mitch realizes. "I'm sorry," he tries to say, a second too late.
Peter is left standing there staring at nothing. An empty space. There aren't even any ashes to prove that Mitch had ever been there, vanishing between one heartbeat and the next.
Peter doesn't realize what's happened at first. Doesn't want to, his fast mind lagging behind. "No," he whispers. Everyone is staring at him. Stiles is looking on with mounting horror, Derek mirroring him. It's the Sheriff who catches him when he collapsed, arms strong around him. "No, no!" It's all Peter can say. This can't have happened, it's all a mistake. Mitch will come back to him, he has to. It can't end this way.
Distantly, Peter knows he's crying. John is too, Peter can smell his tears. Of course he is, he just watched his son fade out of existence. Of course, he still has Stiles, still gets to watch him grow. Peter has no one. Derek comes to him, followed by Stiles. He's crying too, on the ground with him. Derek has a hand on his shoulder. Melissa is covering her mouth with her hands, eyes glistening. Even Argent's stony mask has broken as Peter falls apart in front of them.
Peter throws his head back and roars, so loud it shakes the trees around them. The earth quakes, the preserve trembles in fear. But the world keeps turning, the universe continues on, ambivalent. What is one human life in the grand scheme of things?
Everything, he is everything.

What happened to Nemesis Prime to make him hate Christmas so?
Dear Yuletide Yearner,
Ah, yes, Nemesis is known across realities to have caused trouble for the saintly Klaus. Once a stellar cycle, on the 25th date of the Earth month December across the multiverse, the Santa and his wolf-sled would somehow infiltrate Unicron's internal systems undetected; by the time that the Chaos Bringer discovered the intrusion, the only sign of Klaus's presence was a box of coal left behind. Angered by this insult, the Chaos Bringer tasked his loyal subject, Nemesis Prime, with hunting down the intruder.
On the night that Nemesis Prime tracked his quarry to Earth, Klaus had come across Heslf: a genetically engineered "Mascot" created by his old adversary Pola-Cola LLC for the United States Government, allowing them to remote view every household across the continent. Unwilling to be a cog in the military-industrial complex, Heslf had escaped and found refuge within Klaus's arctic workshop—but it wasn’t long before Nemesis attacked. Klaus, aware of his foe's intentions and knowing that he could not defeat a Herald of Unicron alone, entered the Bleed to seek the aid of others of his kind; but as they answered his call, Nemesis pursued them through Bleedspace, the life-draining abilities of his Dead Matrix outpacing Klaus’ mystical healing factor.
After shrugging off the attacks of Klaus' pet wolf, Nemesis made to fire on the bleedspace doorway, intending to trap the other Santas in the hellish nothingness of Unspace. The gambit might have succeeded—were it not for Heslf, who leapt in front of the blast. This heroic, but seemingly futile, act was met with laughter from Nemesis—but a crack of thunder from the bleedspace cube soon silenced his premature celebration.
For Heslf's sacrifice bought time for the arrival of none other than Thunder Cross, the Cybertronian Santa: a mighty neutral who comes to each Cybertronian every Bahneon during the Cyber-Solstice, bringing the heroic Transformers coal, oil and energon, and the evil Transformers useless metals like gold and silver. Thunder Cross turns into an aerial Thunder-Sled, and although an old injury prevents him from flying under his own power, his faithful electro-elk companion, Radar, helps him travel the Cybertronian globe every year.
Drawing his mighty Storm-Pickel from his Transwarp Sack, Thunder Cross subdued and defeated Nemesis, his Matrix of Goodwill countering the dark Prime's own and restoring Klaus to health. Knowing his master would not accept failure, Nemesis demanded that Thunder Cross kill him, but the kindly neutral refused; instead, he used his Matrix to gift Nemesis the freedom of a new life as Black Convoy. Now gifted with a mind of his own, Black Convoy promised Klaus to dedicate himself to defending all life, and left for the stars to atone for his evil actions.
Klaus mourned the death of Heslf, but Thunder Cross—ever a protector of artificial life-forms—saw that there was still a spark of life left in the courageous being's body. Through the Matrix of Goodwill, Heslf was reborn as a cosmic "machine elf", and took his happy memories of the Santas with him as he ascended to a higher plane of existence.
Of course, this would be far from the only time that Santa Klaus met Thunder Cross. Years later, for instance, they joined forces to battle the corrupted Lunartix, alongside the last son of the destroyed planet... hmm, the name slips my mind. Argon, perhaps?

“True Alpha Male Material”
Another load of delusional garbage courtesy of the Scott McCall Defense Squad https://princeescaluswords.tumblr.com/post/646822259388022784/why-are-true-alphas-so-rare-lots-of-other#notes
Anonymous: Why are true alphas so rare? lots of other characters (Liam, Malia, Isaac, Season 3b-6 Derek) demonstrate strength of will and determination, strength of character and virtue. From S4 onwards, I don’t see what makes Derek any less ‘worthy’ of the status true alpha than Scott. What is it that makes Scott more special than the other characters?
@princeescaluswords:
The easiest way to approach this is by talking about what the True Alpha status is not. To remind you, I’m drawing these conclusion from what was said and done on the show.
It’s not a merit badge. No checklist exists of things a werewolf can be or things a werewolf can do to become one, so it’s impossible to plan to become a True Alpha. It’s not a reward. There’s no cosmic being or review committee that looks at someone’s behavior to determine who this century’s True Alpha should be. It’s not an achievement in a videogame. A werewolf can’t keep trying again if they fail to succeed on the first try.
It’s not a superpower either. It’s a way that a werewolf can become an alpha without having to kill or take that power. It doesn’t make them stronger than another alpha. It doesn’t make them smarter than another alpha. It doesn’t make them immune to temptation or failure. It’s not a state of grace. A True Alpha can still get angry, can still make mistakes, and can still be manipulated. It’s certainly not a destiny. There’s no cosmic force pushing the chosen one toward their goals.
It’s a consequence of both behavior and personality. A werewolf with certain qualities is in a situation where they need the power of an alpha to achieve their goals. Two of the most prominent principles in Teen Wolf is “The shape you take reflects the person that you are” and “It’s extraordinary what the force of your own will can accomplish.” Scott was a person who cared for others and who came to believe that he had a responsibility to help others before he became a True Alpha. As his mother said “Cause you’re always going to be involved, because not only do you have the power to do something, you care enough to do it.”
We see Scott fulfill the requirements as given by Deaton: force of will, strength of character, and virtue. We see it when he resists Peter’s violent attempts to coerce him into helping him destroy the Argents and kills his own friends in Season 1. We see him insist on getting involved in the Hale-Argent war in Season 2, even though it jeopardizes his life, his relationships, and his future, because he knows that innocent people are going to die he doesn’t. We see him willing to confront impossible choices in Season 3A and resist the manipulations of someone far older, more powerful, and smarter than him.
As for the people you listed? We see their behavior and their personalities as well. Derek, Isaac, and Liam all demonstrate that they don’t have what it takes; that’s not who they are.
Take Derek for example and his relationship with Peter. He doesn’t have the force of will or the strength of character to resist Peter’s manipulations. Peter talked him into having Paige Bitten by Ennis and helped lure her into the school. Peter talked him into not only believing that Peter’s murder of Laura was an accident but that Derek should betray his promise to Scott and help Peter make Scott kill his friends. It took Peter one episode to worm his way back into the Hale pack and how many times do we see Peter manipulate Derek in season 3 even after Derek, by that time, knows exactly who Peter is. Yeah, Derek is angry and petty toward Peter, but he still listens to him. In Season 4, Derek has enough clues to know that Peter isn’t a good person, what with murdering the Mute right in front of him and having “a little werewolf strength,” he still is unable to do nothing to prevent Peter’s endgame.
A response might be that Theo manipulated Scott, but the answer is, what did Theo manipulate Scott into doing? Trusting him. Defending victims. Theo didn’t convince Scott to drive Stiles out of the pack because he could find a better friend, one that wouldn’t be so much trouble. He convinced Scott that Stiles had gone too far and killed Donovan on purpose and that to keep Stiles in the pack, Scott had to deal with it. Think about all the things Peter manipulated Derek into doing? “Shades of gray” is not compatible with “strength of character.”
When did Isaac ever show force of will? When he let Derek turn him into his hand-picked executioner? When he waffled between being loyal to Derek and being loyal to Scott? When he followed Allison’s lead through Season 3? When, knowing that the Nemeton was still activated, that he was Scott’s only actual werewolf beta, he left? He was a follower, not a leader, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
And people have compared Liam’s relationship with Hayden with Scott’s relationship with Allison: passionate, tempestuous, and quick. But here’s the thing – when confronted with the idea that he could save his love’s life by killing someone else, Scott said No in Co-Captain (1x10) and Liam said Yes in Status Asthmaticus (5x10). When presented with the opportunity to abandon innocents and friends to danger and death in order to maintain his relationship with his love, Scott said No in Ice Pick (2x03) and Liam said Yes in Lies of Omission (5x09). Scott never ever complained about becoming an alpha even though it destroyed his life. When Derek anointed him Protector of Beacon Hills in Riddled (3x18), he immediately accepted it. He worried about not doing the task well, but he never contemplated not doing it because someone had to. Liam waffled for the first quarter of Season 6, even though he wanted to be alpha.
This is not saying that they’re written as bad people. Derek, Isaac, and Liam are written as good people. They’re heroes. They’re just not True Alpha material, and that was pretty clearly demonstrated in the show. This doesn’t make Scott superior to them, simply different. The True Alpha status isn’t just about what you do, it’s about who you are inside.
//
So Derek is unworthy and not “True Alpha Male Material” because he got manipulated by Peter, but Scott totes is even though Scott was dumb enough to trust Theo and fall for Theo’s cheap lies since the beginning and Theo played Scott like a cheap kazoo throughout Season 5? 🤔
“It’s one who rises purely on the strength of the character, by virtue, by sheer force of will” If this is the actual definition of a ‘True Alpha’, then it is safe to say that literally EVERYONE on Teen Wolf could and deserved to become one except Scott McCall and Gerard Argent

Hi, can you do a reading on SF9 taeyang ideal type and how he is as a boyfriend? Thanks
hi anon~ thanks for the request. i love getting sf9 requests <3
ideal type
wolf: taeyang’s ideal type is someone who is pretty independent but really loyal and protective of their loved ones. they likely have some sort of leadership like role or possibly even a teacher of some sort. likely pretty family orientated as well. earth sign (taurus, virgo, capricorn)
as a boyfriend
lion & cosmic egg: taeyang is someone who takes the lead in relationships. he keeps a watchful eye on his partner, but really likes to be the one to make decisions. doesn’t like to pick fights with his partner either, but if one breaks out, he’s usually the first to apologize, even if it’s not his fault. he’s also really great with advice relating to relationships. really enjoys spending time with his partner and pretty peaceful. he’s really gone through a lot of different things in terms of relationships (romantic and otherwise) so he can handle really every situation flawlessly.
disclaimer: i do not mean any harm to taeyang or anyone that i do readings of. this is just for fun and for me to practice tarot as i am a beginner. please be respectful to me, the people i do readings of/for, and others reading my spreads. thank you.

Recent OC list.
A handy little reference... that I’ll update later, with the proper info. For now, just a list of recent OC’s I have been using for RP: 
*
- Todd Mannix. 
*
SETTING: A story of mine, loosely based on “The Fox and the Hound” (primarily the novel, but frankly, a few other sources as well). Fantasy, kinda… Steampunk setting. A world loosely based on early 20th-century America (as in the continent), with technology being a touch more advanced and magic existing but being rare and regarded as a very risky type or energy to tap into. 
GENDER: Male. 
SPECIES: Red Fox.
SEXUALITY: Pansexual.
AGE: 25 (loosely).
OCCUPATION: Jack-of-all-trades.
PERSONALITY: Extroverted, quietly calculating. 
DESCRIPTION: A globe-trotter adventurer whose charming looks hide a seasoned survivalist. Frequently seeking new sights and thrills, loyal primarily to his best friend, the more laidback Toby. 
*
- Toby Slade. 
*
SETTING: Same as Todd. 
GENDER: Male
SPECIES: Hound dog. 
SEXUALITY: Bisexual (not entirely set in stone just yet)
AGE: 27 (loosely).
OCUPATION: Former hitman, currently jack-of-all-trades.
PERSONALITY: Businesslike and formal —save with his close acquaintances, with whom he reveals a more sarcastic, yet well-meaning, demeanor. 
DESCRIPTION: Former member of a mercenary team, quit to become an adventurer with his best friend, the more adventurous Todd. Holds himself to a code of honor that is frequently challenged by the often outlandish situations their adventuring leads to. 
**
- Camazotz. 
*
SETTING: Housamo (aka Tokyo Afterschool Summoners); this OC is one of many that I basically came up with during a long talk with my boyfriend. 
GENDER: Male.
SPECIES: Honduran white bat (Ectophylla alba) (*)
AGE: 26. 
OCCUPATION: Medical aide / independent researcher. 
PERSONALITY: Entirely focused at work and in battle, but very easily distracted in his free time. Somewhat embarrassed by the fact that he’s often mistaken for a child, which is only exacerbated by his love of sweets. 
DESCRIPTION: A bat Transient hailing from Anáhuac (**); descended from a long line of executioners, Camazotz long decided that he wanted to be a healer instead. This new world gave him the perfect opportunity for that, and so he set out to join the ideal Guild for his plans. Though regarded as too adorable to take seriously by most people, Camazotz is a hard-working individual, determined to achieve his goals. 
SACRED ARTIFACT: A string that grants ‘Divine Mercy’. However, Camazotz does not like using this Artifact except as a last-resource option —ostensibly it is a healing device. But in truth it has two outcomes: If the patient has wounds that might have healed over time, the string heals them instantly. If the wounds were lethal, the string kills them —the divine mercy in question. Camazotz believes there must be a way to repurpose it to find a third option. 
GUILD: Tamers. 
(*): Look up photos of them, by the by. It’s the cutest stuff in the world! :3
(**): Anáhuac is a concept I use in lieu of the game’s “El Dorado”. This territory includes other territories derived from Prehispanic mythologies, such as Hanan Pacha (see Chuychu, below). 
**
- Chuychú.
**
SETTING: Housamo. 
GENDER: Male. 
SPECIES: Alpaca. 
AGE: 28. 
OCCUPATION: Librarian. 
PERSONALITY: A flirty, somewhat vain, yet sharp young man. 
DESCRIPTION: Hailing from Hanan Pacha (*), Chuychú has been liaison between gods, astronomer / researcher, and now part of a Guild that mixes magic and scientific research. His main objective is to study and catalogue divergent timelines, including previous time loops. Generally pacific by nature, leaving the fighting to the bodyguards in his group, he is nevertheless more than wiling to defend himself or others in a pinch. 
SACRED ARTIFACT: The star mirrors —two twin orbs. One shows time and one space. Chuychu primarily uses them to study cosmic and time anomalies. Can also use them to show others their own past or divergent timelines (an ability he usually reserves only for people who might need a push in the right direction). In battle, he can combine their effects to create a profound vertigo effect, powerful enough to knock down all but the most resilient opponents. 
GUILD: Tama Scholars (**)
(*) = A world based on Inca mythology. 
(**) = Another concept my boyfriend and I came up with together. A group more interested in research than in fighting, based on Tama as it is the site of Tokyo’s biggest library. 
***
- Juan Darién (aka JD)
**
SETTING: Housamo.
GENDER: Male. 
SPECIES: Tiger-man / Human (see below).
AGE: 17. 
OCCUPATION: Student. 
PERSONALITY: Self-assured, if somewhat stubborn. Because he believes humans to be naturally prone to evil, he figures that his human form is not beholden to the same restrictions he imposes upon himself as a tiger. Consequently, in his tiger form he acts in what he understands to be a virtuous way (some say, self-righteous) and in his human form as a creature of desire. Yet his true personality is that of a naive young man still learning about the world. 
DESCRIPTION: The son of a tiger-man and a human woman. Lived peacefully in a small village in Yvy Tenondé (*), until the townspeople, who did not approve of this mixed marriage, burned their home. Juan Darién lost his parents that day, and since then came to believe that humans are evil by nature. Later, coming to a different world via a pillar of light, he joined the Aoyama group, figuring that their beliefs are the closest to his notions of good and evil. He considers his tiger form his true, and pure nature, and sometimes dons his human form purely to excise out his “sinful temptations”… or used to, until a fateful day when his ideologies led him to clash with one of the Crafters. 
The experience with the resulting Exception, and the intimacy necessary to cancel it, have led JD to question several of his long-held beliefs. 
SACRED ARTIFACT: A medallion that represents “Split”. He uses it to switch between his two forms, identifying the tiger side as “Juan” and the human as “Darién”. Only recently has he begun using both names at all times. The medallion can also be used in combat to split App users from their Artifacts. However, this can be a double-edged sword. Some Artifacts will simply go inert without a wielder, but others will go wild without a user to anchor them. 
GUILD: Missionaries. 
(*) = Part of the same world that includes Anáhuac and Hanan Pacha. Loosely based on Guaraní mythology. 
NOTE: Based on a character by Uruguayan writer Horacio Quiroga. 
***
- Fortunato. 
**
SETTING: Housamo. 
GENDER: Male.
SPECIES: Lion. 
AGE: 40. 
OCCUPATION: Security guard. 
PERSONALITY: Serious-minded about his job and about what he is to protect, be it arts, relics, or knowledge. Generally friendly otherwise, and particularly kind to children. 
DESCRIPTION: A transient who journeyed from his word looking for his twin, Sopho. Together they formed a duo dedicated to guarding all manner of temples and sacred spaces, descending from a long line of guardians. In this world he fulfills that role in his guild’s library base, together with a wolf transient whom Fortunato regards as a brother-in-arms. Quite protective of his guild and his friends, perhaps in part derived from his job. 
SACRED ARTIFACT: A morning-star flail that can hide doorways or reveal them. In battle Fortunato uses it to lock his opponents into a combat room that he alone controls. 
GUILD: Scholars. 
***
- Phyx. 
** 
SETTING: Housamo. 
GENDER: Female.
SPECIES: Sphynx (winged lioness) 
AGE: 35. 
OCCUPATION: Linguist. 
PERSONALITY: Inquisitive, to the point that sometimes she’ll hyper-focus on questions. Especially when meeting somebody new. Nevertheless a capable leader and a fierce warrior when needed. 
DESCRIPTION: A transient from Aaru. Phyx was the guardian of a massive temple until curiosity led her to explore the contents of this temple herself, finding a vast wealth of knowledge and culture. When she journeyed to another world, she sought a similar place of culture, finding it in the largest library of the city. Leader of the Tama Scholars. Under her leadership, this Guild is less interested in imposing a specific Ideology than in preserving records of several matters —including the many time loops that have come to pass before. 
SACRED ARTIFACT: A golden scepter that controls light. At it’s most powerful it will summon a light beam that can annihilate in seconds. There is a second, subtler power it has —Phyx can use it to reveal hidden passages or messages.  
GUILD: Scholars.
**
- Yasy Yateré.
SETTING: Housamo.
GENDER: Male. 
SPECIES: Unkown —shapeshifter, presents as a golden hare-man.
AGE: Unknown —claims to be 18. 
OCCUPATION: Greenhouse keeper.  
PERSONALITY: Polite, friendly and approachable. Has a more playful side that he reserves for his “golden friends” (see below). 
DESCRIPTION: A mysterious, elusive Transient from Yvy Tenondé. He generally stays out of App Battles and what few people contact him have found Yasy to be an okay, if slightly reserved, fellow. However, he has a side that only a few have seen. Every so often, Yasy will find a boy who catches his fancy, and use his powers to get close to him. When the time is right, he will give them a kiss that tastes like honey and wild berries —which will entrance them, after which he’ll take them to his secret garden to play. Yasy eventually gets bored of these “golden friends” and will let them go. What is he truly searching for? Even Guilds like the Wisemen and the Entertainers have not been able to crack this mystery just yet. 
SACRED ARTIFACT: A baculum decorated with small precious stones. It controls neither plants nor mesmerism, as his opponents expect —instead, it lets him control emotions or even make people drowsy. Yasy prefers to escape rather than to defeat his opponents. However, an opponent who pushes too far will find themselves confronted with Yasy’s true nature: One of the seven children of Kerana and Tau, god of Evil. His genuine appearance and powers are not quite so whimsical. 
GUILD: Unknown. Has been rumored to be part of either the Rule Makers or the Genociders, but neither group has ever confirmed he is in their ranks. 
**
- Amber. 
An AU variation on Kounosuke, using concepts from “Steven Universe” and later “Houseki no Kuni”. 
Basic info can be found here --though it is now slightly out of date. 
**
- Hugh Cahil. 
*
SETTING: A particular AU that I use along with my boyfriend that is, uuhhh….. “Morenatsu but with Sci-fi stuff. Also a lot of characters from other Fandoms”. 
GENDER: Male. 
AGE: 21. 
SPECIES: Tasmanian Devil. 
SEXUALITY: Gay. 
OCCUPATION: Drama teacher. Moonlights as the drummer for “The Carrions”. 
PERSONALITY: Blunt and straight to the point, yet fiercely loyal to his friends and to their friends in turn. Highly gregarious. 
DESCRIPTION: The kind of cool teacher whose students flock to for his unconventional choices in teaching (one year he had this drama class do a stage production of “You’re good man, Charlie Brown” followed by “Dog sees God: Confessions of a teenage blockhead” (*) ). Singaporean, though of Australian origin, recently Hugh has been focusing more on his band, as they are finally starting to get their first breaks. 
(*) = Look up the plot to these plays. You are in for a quite a treat!
** 
- Karnevil.
SETTING: Mutanimals / TMNT. 
GENDER: Male.
SPECIES: Hyena. 
SEXUALITY: (Undecided)
AGE: Unknown (roughly estimated to be in his late 20’s).
OCCUPATION: Former hotel doorman; currently, mercenary. 
PERSONALITY: Obsessive, yet wiling to bargain. 
DESCRIPTION: A victim of two separate mutations, first from human to hyena-man, then briefly to brainwashed servant and back —but in the process discovered a dark desire deep inside of him: To eat the flesh of living human beings. Mutants, too. He has forgotten his original name in lieu of his chosen monicker. Will lend his augmented speed, strength, and mouthful of razor-sharp teeth and claws to any employer wiling to provide him with what he craves. Yet once the hunger is sated, he has found himself aimless and often adrift in life…
**
- Moy
SETTING: TMNT / Mutanimals. 
SPECIES: Mutant Leopard with purple fur. 
GENDER: Male. 
AGE: 26. 
OCCUPATION: Former truck driver, currently freelance courier.
PERSONALITY: Disciplined at his job, used to be timid. Currently becoming more and more outspoken. 
DESCRIPTION: An exchange student from Guatemala who extended his stay working all sort of off jobs. He was considering leaving when disaster struck and he found himself doused in Mutagen even as he clung to a dyed paw he had won in a fair years ago. The mutation gave him the additional, uncommon power to teleport. Finding himself with no real barriers for the first time in his life, Moy has decided to explore every nook and cranny of this strange world —and beyond! 
NOTE: Based on the character “Moykat” from the licensed Mexican TMNT comic back in the 90’s.
