so hey guys i finished dungeon meshi yesterday and i'm still thinking about it
#ria.txt#i spoiled myself so at first i was like 'this is bonkers wtf are they doing in those last few chapters?????'#but then it was like. yeah. i see#love those ch when it's just clearly putting the squad into Situations#also. izutsumi#what i really liked was how tightly the protagonist and the deuteragonist were wound up in the overall themes#the plot the themes the conflict the characters it was very neatly connected#hence i am also now accidentally invested in whatever going on between laios and marcille#not just platonic not romantic not enemies i just think they work well tgt and deeply care for each other its great watching them develop#it's the leader + most trusted advisor / anxious girlfailure + the annoying freak she's somehow attached to vibes#haha that rabbit chapter with marcille. hahha i was like what the fuck man. it was funny and then boom whump [tears streaming down my face]#those shapeshifter chs were sooo much fun esp seeing other chara's perceptions of each other. stealing that#the changeling ones were great too elf senshi is the fucking funniest he looks sooooooo unserious#marcille's evolving perception with death starting with saving falin and saving the squad and her nightmares of outliving everyone-#-and her dad and her 'temper tantrum' and UGH when at the end she said she was fine with falin not coming back.... WAAA. OUGH.#i think dunmeshi handled the trope of 'prophecy of chosen one becoming king' pretty well and it makes sense why laios is the protag#the worldbuilding is so thoughtful as well i liked seeing different characters with different worldviews interact#very solid and well rounded series wooo#the main 4 has such a fun dynamic together#anyways. dunmeshi au.....#more like borrowing the worldbuilding bc charas are too nuanced for a one to one comparison#ren is like some prince of his own species but he's like 34th in line and no one cares about him so he fucks off to eat monsters#which is why he's both snobbish AND a total freak when it comes to his food taste#false is originally in for the money from ren and plans to scam him but unfortunately the cringefail swag captures her#martyn is Obnoxiously Clueless and thinks he's smart but he's not. he's resourceful but also pathetic and crazy#stress cant cook but she thinks she does so everyone goes (≖_≖ ) when she picks up a pot. they delegate her to killing and chopping duty#the mvp is iskall who keeps on saving everyone's asses and somehow has resources for everyone#i think ren is actually aware false is going to scam him but he has too much money to spend anyway and he thinks shes cool so he lets her??#and somehow she doesnt take the money and run. and goes back to eating monsters w/ the party. everyone is crazy

Ref time for new au :) still developing the story of this one a bit, but a couple design notes
> Based mainly on a Priangan sheep, an Indonesian breed selectively bred for ram fighting.
> Pied markings! Went for piebald for the marking on the back, and I thought it'd be weird if that was the only patch of black wool, so I added a few more. I also added black markings under the eyes coz a lot of the images of pied priangans that I saw had black markings around their eyes
> Notch in the ear, scar on his nose, and scars on his neck and wrists from his execution
> His crown is orange! No specific reason for the color choice, just thought it fit well with the rest of them. Red orange yellow green cyan violet. It's a rainbow now :)
> Typically wears their crown as a collar. The crown associates him with the Bishops, who he doesn't want to be associated with
> The bell is tied with a ribbon and ends up hanging off the end of all their weapons due to this. Idk I just thought it would be neat
> My fiance randomly suggested the name Apollo when I turned down Athena (while my other rendition of the lamb is female, I wanted to go with at least a male-adjacent version for this one). Since Apollo is the Greek God of prophecy, I think Apollo is a perfect name for the Lamb of Prophecy. More about that later :)

Y'all remember that MCYT PJO au I asked for help with awhile ago? WELL HERE'S THE CABINS AND MY EXPLINATIONS BEHIND THEM!!
#1 Zeus Cabin: Jimmy, Joel Jimmy: He's a Zeus kid, but everyone somehow forgets about it. Joel: He's competitive and strong. Also, because Jimmy is his half brother through godly parent, i get to make a fun bit about him dating Lizzie. And one of his origins in Afterlife SMP was a thunderborn
#2 Hera Cabin: Scott Scott: Scott's whole thing is loyalty. Hera is the goddess of marriage and is insanely loyal to Zeus. However, I feel like Hera should get at least one affair. So now Scott can use peacocks as weapons.
#3 Poseidon Cabin: Skizz Skizz: Poseidon kids tend to be really, really loyal to a fault and heroic, both qualities I think Skizz possesses.
#4 Demeter Cabin: Sausage, Shelby, Bdubs, Stress Sausage: This man built Sanctuary in a jungle and has flowers in his hair. He sells wood. There is no other place to put him. Shelby: Mushroom gnome, spooky mangrove witch, powerful storm witch, i need not continue. Bdubs: Moss man. Stress: SHE HAS FLOWERS
#5 Ares Cabin: Martyn, False Martyn: His planet is Mars, which is the roman version of Ares. He ended Limited Life in such a violent way, i can't help it. He was also red for the majority of Secret Life. False: I just feel like False should get to kill people more often.
#6 Athena Cabin: Grian, Pix, Owen, Xisuma Grian: This sums it up pretty well
Tumblr media
Pix: Smart man. Archeologist and definitely a nerd. I wanna see him skipping out on training just so he can read history books. Owen: He likes to explore and discover new things in Pirates. In Rats, he's a tinkerer. In New Life, he's an explorer who wants to study hybrids. In Empires, he's a Llama who's curious about how humans work. Just a very curious character overall. Xisuma: Admin. I'm not elaborating.
#7 Apollo Cabin: Gem, Oli, Lyarrah Gem: She is an Apollo kid because of her Empire in S2. She's the sunlight princess. Apollo kid. Oli: MUSIC. MAN. Lyarrah: She writes the captions for the hermitcraft recap.
#8 Artemis Cabin: Pearl Pearl: Y'know, Artemis could've just like... had a kid, even though she took that oath. It wouldn't even have to be with a guy. Gods can change to whatever gender they want. Anyway, Pearl gets to be an Artemis kid because her symbolism is moon, she loves dogs, and will commit murder and hunt at night.
#9 Hephaestus Cabin: Doc, Mumbo, Tango, Impulse, Cub, Zedaph, Fwhip, Iskall Doc: Redstone Mumbo: Redstone Tango: Redstone Impulse: Redstone Cub: Redstone Zedaph: Redstone Fwhip: Redstone AND has a red scarf (don't ask me how that's relevant) Iskall: Redstone
#10 Aphrodite Cabin: Keralis Keralis: Okay, I don't know why, but Keralis gives me the vibes of a very charming person. His voice is nice to listen to, so imagine how useful it'd be if I gave him charm speak.
#11 Hermes Cabin: Scar, Etho, Joe Scar: Trader Scar, scammer extraordinar. Etho: All i must say is Shady-E's. I get "jack-of-all-trades, master of none, often better than master of one" vibes from him. He's funny, he's mischievous, it just works. Joe: Comedy man. Excellent delivery. And, yet again, i look at this man and go "That right there is a multi-talented man with a habit for mischief."
#12 Dionysus Cabin: Joey, Beef Joey: *points at his season one empires theme* i need not say more Beef: Idk, food. I don't really have a reason. I don't know too much about Beef.
#13 Hades Cabin: Zloy Zloy: Zombie man. He writes the Hermitcraft recaps in the dark at 2am with nothing but pure spite.
#14 Iris Cabin: Katherine Katherine: SHE. HAS. COLORS. and also I couldn't put her in Demeter cabin because Shelby is already there and i am NOT excluding Nature Wives from this au
#15 Hypnos Cabin: Bigb, XB, Wels Bigb: Sleepy stuff, right? WRONG. Gaslight. Go in everyones dreams, make fake prophecies, peace out, and cause chaos. XB: I look at his fanon design, I see an alien, and I go "aha he sleeps" Wels: This guy (@dingdinghq) said so and i completely agree. Something about sleeping in S6.
#16 Nemesis Cabin: Edit: wels not here no more
#17 Nike Cabin: Ren Ren: VICTORY. I don't know much about Ren's story in the Life Series, but I look at this man and see someone who has won a lot.
#18 Hebe Cabin: 
#19 Tyche Cabin: TFC TFC: Man goes mining and gets really lucky. That's it.
#20 Hecate Cabin: Lizzie, Cleo, Jevin Lizzie: Witchy vibes. Also, Arson. Cleo: Arson. She uses her magic for Arson. Jevin: He's a magic slime. Also, Arson. All Hecate kids love Arson.

Empires smp god au
Pearl Goddess of the harvest and farming her title was literally the farmer pearl and in the past people kept track of harvest by looking at the phases of the moon and positioning of the constellations
Lizzie the trickster goddess of the ocean and government ocean because in season one she was a fish goddess and government because in season two she was a mayor and in both she is a scam artist trying to make a profit through morality ambiguous means
Joel god of thunder and art in canon he is the god of thunder and if anyone in empires was a art god it would be the guy that sculpted clones of himself and built stratos/mezalia

Jimmy is The god of death for obvious reasons
Joey is the god of wealth and desire because he is a pirate and pirates like gold also he steals from false and really wants to get in xornoth s pants he also Katherine’s (understandable)
Shubble is the goddess of nature and the wild because her whole wolf thing she had going on in the first season of empires and the infected outlaw thing she had in season 2

Fwhip god of fire and revenge because in both seasons of empires he has had a stubborn heated rivalry with jimmy and did not take the break up well also in art his hair is fire truck red
Gem goddess knowledge and magic because she as the wizard gem she is a powerful magician and because as the princess of dawn she teaches others about the sun god also the wizard gems empire is literally a school
Sausage love and family and lust because he is known for his platonic love (Hermes and Eddie and pearl) and let’s say his passionate spicy love( pole dancing and flirting)
Oli god of music and insanity he is a bard and who’s words make zero sense to everyone and watching him you get sensory overload ( he is the oldest but nobody believes him)
false goddess of mystery and adventure and new beginnings because she is lost her memory and is a very adventurous person also do to the lost memories she basically started from square one when she came to empires

au idea: the blight has begun to spread outside of vvardenfell and even morrowind's borders as the tribunal's power wanes. the empire has been trying to combat this plague, but doesn't even understand how it's spreading. the sixth house cult grows in the shadows.
knowing azura's prophecy they seek the nerevarine: indoril nerevar's reincarnation. but not to kill him before he pose a threat; they only fear azura will continue to reincarnate him, and if they kill anyone and everyone who may be the nerevarine, false or not, the empire will take notice.
no, instead they take all the orphaned children born under a certain sign to uncertain parents, raising them. lord dagoth ur knows the best weapon he could ever hope to have for freeing morrowind and subjugating this empire would be nerevar reborn. it was nerevar who did so the first time around, after all.
and what better way to have nerevar tied to him than to be his consort?

i was rereading some old Bonefall au posts and a random thought came to mind- IF Starclan had learned Birchface sent the false prophecy (because if i remember correctly they don't know it was him either-) would he be comdemned to the dark forest? so sorry if you had answered this before
I don't usually get into hypotheticals or AUs within the AU, else I'd waste a lot of time writing stuff that doesn't matter and get even more inquiries into the hypothetical, non-canon situations. It's why I never answer asks like, "What if (character) survived?" Or "What if this plot point never happened?"
I get asks about Birchface a lot and it's why I haven't answered the question. "What if StarClan found out about his false sign?" Could be an entire story on its own. There would be a big fight and a lot of arguments. I'd have to chart out Birchface's friends in StarClan and think about what they think, the way I do for most politics in BB. It would open the door to the idea that judgements could be wrong.
And I might use that in the future, depending on where ASC goes, or the arc after it, since the story is becoming increasingly supernaturally focused. But for now, Birchface lives in uncertainty and you will too.
Would they dump him into the Dark Forest? CAN they do that? Could they stop him from coming back? What would the new border guards DO to him? If he dies in the Dark Forest, will he respawn or... would it be permanent?
These are things he thinks about, his stomach twisted, holding his secret close to his chest as the kits who drowned because of him rove nearby. Their mother, their father, his sister, his father, and his Cleric walk the Dark Forest, and he alone knows the truth.

The First Tear (2/3) by vxredmption(Warmund)
A COTL AU fanfic writing for @gorjee-art COTL AU (All properties, AUs, concepts, imagery, etc. go their respective owners.)
Narinder tapped their chest with a open palm as he talked, then gripping a tight fist across it as he looks down with a deep frown at the end of his tangent, the silent lamb god still not noticing them. "Your own followers try to call back to when you were not like this: a Elder God who has not taken even a whisper for consideration... to forfeit their mortal emotions as to achieve their purpose that they truly do not understand.... not in this forsaken realm or any other!" His voice echoed in the stillness of the forest, the sun fully now setting across the deep foliage of the ancient land. Very soon, a few stars across the darkened skies would show, fireflies would emerge distant yet visible around the smallest of flowers to the tallest wild grass, the moon cresting over the great sky and providing light to a loud white shade of a follower and a darkened god whose red eyes upon their massive horns stared upwards... unblinking and still.
"You, of all beings, have fallen so far from own principles that you became the very thing you have sworn to kill and usurp, renewing promises for a better life and death! Well... I say these same words again to you from the very first year of my indocteration to your so called 'promises': Hypocrite! Manipulator! False God!... YOU. DAMMNED. LAMB!" The voice of Narinder has never reached such tones of anger before, only doing so once when the Lamb themselves have resisted in giving the Red Crown to him at their Realm of Death. For the likes of the Preacher of the New Faith, this feeling of betrayal, anger, and anguish matched with the Lamb in that singular event, so close that it was a mirror to a past the two sought not recrate upon some years of reconciliation and being reaffirmed to the "The New Faith". The matter of it being Narinder's side didn't seem to be ironic... as no one else but a still god could judge and hold him accountable for it.
Centuries of waiting was still left to be undone by Narinder, all of his red eyes glowed behind his mask as he calls out to his still silent God, his face at the verge of splitting itself apart along with the hood he wears from the sheer anger he is experiencing, tensing every muscle he has in the moment. "Why was this not enough for you?! I had brought you back from the dead to undo a prophecy that saw your entire kind killed, their blood leading up to my siblings! You had a chance to do the same suffering to me when I betrayed you! Why show me and my siblings any compassion and patience, knowing well what the cost of godhood truly is?! We have tried to follow your ways! We have followed you with this mortal flesh you once had... and we get NOTHING FOR IT IN THE END! NOTHING! ONLY SILENCE!"
It was in this deep boiling anger did Narinder tried to do one more act to try to make the Lamb God turn to him... a act so heinous for even the likes of the preacher could possibly imagine within that moment. He raised his gifted shepherd staff high with both hands, arm raised and baring his teeth as he soon starts to bend the ends apart to themselves with all he could. The staff was made of strong ancient oak... but even it was starting to bend from the strength the mortal feline has within that moment. The bells on the top of curve shook from his efforts, the middle curving slowly upwards to the sky as with any rate, a gift that had once been a sign of true devotion and appointed leadership for the the Lamb's cult, would soon be broken. Narinder breathed hard from his teeth... inching the breaking point of the staff closer and closer... cracking from within... and then... he freezes. His red eyes stopped to see the reflection on the bells, still so pristine from a time in where the Lamb was once a farmer in his homeland... still the same bells used and polished throughout all these years without seeing any signs of wear from its use... and he was going to break what was the only thing that reminded himself that the Lamb's true self was still with him for all those years. He quickly relaxes his arms, soon placing the staff on the ground to his side as he leans to it, breathing hastily with shivering fingers. His lower supporting hand slides down a little on the staff... and notes a slight imperfect quality now within the staff's strong median core... damage that was not easily fixable due to it being too small to be done by artisanal hands, but ever noticeable by the ones who have used it for their lifetime. Or for this case, several lifetimes of use. Narinder’s eyes widened on damage he would have caused, silent with his rasping breath... then... he stifled a shivering sigh... followed by sombering mewling whimper from the top mouth. "I... I... I am... sorry, Lamb... The one who showed me compassion again... the one who made care for my siblings from troubling times and times of rest... the one who has entrusted me to not only watch their flock... but to care for them as if they... were my own. To think, if I were a lesser follower... I would've broken your greatest gift upon me before your final ascension... I... just wish you to know, if you’re still there, on behalf of the cult under your name, on my very heart: We miss you... I miss you, my Lamb..." From there... silence... then sniffling sounds are heard from Narinder... tears soon streaming down his face as he could no longer hold in his sorrows for his once living Lamb that stood before him, shadowing over him like a great pillar against a pebble. All he could muster was a whisper as to avoid bawling full strength from his eyes with each syllable, so deep was his sadness for the closest being he could call a friend... and never did he get the chance to admit it to them before their ascension. "I-I... just want to s-see you smile... just once more... m-my… Lamb….” . . . . Slowly, the great eyes of Great Lamb's horns shifted a little and looked towards the crying figure behind them... the incense from the Lamb God's holy censer slowly stopped flowing... a slight shift of their head turning towards the sound of crying that is now being noticed to them... a slow, gentle step is heard beneath the large cloak as their body shifted a foot from where they stand. Narinder didn’t notice this as his head hung low, his crying breath being the only thing he hears upon this night. The Lamb... heard a voice... The Lamb... felt their heart heavier through their cold, ichor black ribs... skipping beats like crackling ice through sunlight... making them feel... like the mortal Narinder.
End of Part 2 (Attached the first page to this one... will need to figure out how to stylize it better... ahh well. Here you go!)

I wanted to make a post outlining the Glennry Tangled AU. It is VERY long so it’s going under the cut. And when I say long I mean 3k+ words
The prophecy of the Unsung Hero is a bit different here. I haven’t written it out yet, but it involves the Doodler being released into a host, much like Scary in the Church but a permanent residence. The secret Cult of the Doodler from Neverwinter is now an Order within Oakvale’s palace, Barry the head of operations. He believes his child is the one prophesied to become this all powerful god’s human host. Also, Oakvale is pretty much just Corona, it’s not the commune like in DnDads.
Nearing the end of her pregnancy, Autumn falls ill, so then like the movie the hunt for the Sundrop flower begins. Willy has been guarding the flower for himself for who knows how long, determined to use its powers to live forever. And unfortunately like Gothel, the flower is ‘taken from him’ and whisked away to the palace.
Henry is born not too long after. Within the prophecy is something that alludes to Henry being kidnapped but one day returning ‘when the time is right’, so Barry essentially lets it happen. There’s some kind of dialogue between him and Willy. Barry conveys to him what he believes to be this stranger’s role in destiny but Willy’s like “I don’t give a shit about your stupid prophecy I just want the flower back”. But the flower is a part of Henry now, so his only option is to steal this baby.
He and Barry strike a deal. Willy can keep the ‘flower’ for now, but when the time comes Henry will return to the castle to become a vessel for the Doodler. They agree on sharing the power of the Doodler when it happens, both planning on betraying the other to keep it for themselves. For now it’s just these two slimy assholes that see this baby as something to protect and take care of but for all the wrong reasons. A means to an end with containing the Doodler in a manipulatable container and a source of magic to live forever. But not a child. Not a person.
So Henry grows up in the secluded tower with Willy. A false love, for the power inside him rather than the person who holds it, but it’s not like Henry knows that yet. I want him to still have Rapunzel’s love of painting here, which isn’t too important to the story, but he’s a painter here instead of geologist (which let’s be honest, how the hell would he do that while locked in a tower lol). Also before I forget to add it somewhere else, Pascal is Erin. There’s nothing really that different besides the name change .(idea from @/supremely-unsupervised tyyyy)
Enter Glenn: wanted thief going by a fake name but I don’t know what yet. Could just be Flynn Rider but idk if I can think of something different that ties back to DnDads. Anyways, Glenn is his Eugene, not the name on the wanted posters. The object he steals instead of the Lost Prince’s crown is some important relic, an ornate knife, that's to be used in the future Doodler Vessel ceremony. This will be important later on when they’re in Oakvale and meet Barry for the first time.
The plot follows the movie pretty closely for a while here. Henry asks to leave the tower, Willy says the outside world is too dangerous. Glenn is chased down by Darryl as Maximus (yes. Darryl is the horse). Glenn finds the tower and tries to hide out there, but Henry knocks him out with a frying pan. He attempts to show Glenn to Willy upon his return, wanting to prove he can handle himself in the outside world. Willy blows up and refuses to let Henry leave the tower. Henry instead asks for the paint made from white shells as a gift, which sends Willy on a three-day journey.
Henry strikes a deal with Glenn: the relic in exchange for taking him to see the lights. Here, the lights are a more a marker that one day the Lost Prince will return, rather than hope that he will. Thousands of lanterns in the night sky every year on his birthday, calling out to him that they’re awaiting his return. On the way, Glenn stops by the Snuggly Duckling (which I’ve been calling the Ugly Duckling on accident this whole time oops), run by his friend, Ron. This scene is less an attempt to scare Henry and more a trial run to interacting with society since Henry’s only had Willy before Glenn came along. Really, Glenn just wants to stop by and talk to Ron again. Henry is introduced to all of the regulars they hang out there as often as Glenn (all the characters from the digital scene, they aren’t replaced with DnDads characters). Henry’s very intimidated by them at first, but everyone is very nice which surprises him (so imagine all their softer sides they reveal during ‘I Have A Dream’ except they’re just like that from the start).
Meanwhile, Willy runs into Darryl. Quickly suspicious of why a palace horse would be out here, he runs back to the tower and finds Henry gone. Enraged, he thinks Barry betrayed him by taking Henry back early. He then finds the relic Glenn stole and forms a plan to use this as leverage against Barry to get Henry back and still hold the power over the Doodler in the end.
Cut back to the Snuggly Duckling. Ron, Glenn, and Henry talk for a while before the royal guard barges in looking for Glenn. Ron helps them quietly escape but Darryl continues to sniff them out like the bloodhound of a horse he is. Glenn and Henry are trying to run from the royal guard but are now trapped in a flooding cave. In what seems like their dying breaths, Glenn reveals that his actual name is Glenn Close. Which doesn’t make sense as a sentence but like. You know what I’m saying. Henry says he has magic hair that glows when he sings, and then he realizes he can use that to find their way out of the water, singing his tune just as the water closes over them completely. They narrowly escape the blocked up cave, heaving their way onto the riverbank.
Cut to them sitting by the fire. Henry heals Glenn’s hand from clawing their way out of the cave. He talks about how Willy told him that when he was little, people wanted his magic for themselves, so Willy hid him away where Henry would be safe. He then turns the conversation back to Glenn’s name reveal. Whatever the name is that Glenn was using beforehand, Flynn Rider or something else, it was a character he’d read about in a book as a kid. Same story as Eugene, this kid who had nothing and this character had everything. After they talk, Willy comes out from the trees and approaches Henry, warning him that he won’t like what he finds in Oakvale. Telling him that he should just come back home to their tower. Henry refuses, but Willy only came to start planting seeds of doubt in Henry that everyone else is out to get him and that Willy is all he can trust. This is where we start to diverge a lot from 1-1 with the Tangled plot. Unlike the movie, he doesn’t give Henry the relic. It’s too big of a leverage to practically hand back to Barry because Willy knows eventually Henry will meet with him if they go into Oakvale. He’s counting on Henry learning the truth about Barry and running back ‘home’ to him.
The next morning, Darryl tracks down Glenn and attempts to arrest him (as well as a horse can do that), but Henry calls for a birthday truce, which Darryl reluctantly agrees to. They enter Oakvale and participate in the festival held during the day before the lantern lightings. And now Henry gets his hair braided yayyy they don’t have to carry around all that hair anymore good lord. Alsoooooo maybe maybe might throw in some NPC kids to braid his hair but not Lark and Sparrow (I’ll have something else about them at the end). They’d be more visual easter eggs than the actual kids of the dads because only Ron here could logically be a father to one of them at this point. And Darryl is literally a horse.
Now the Cult of the Doodler and all knowledge of the prophecy regarding Henry is only known within the palace walls, and the common folk of the kingdom are under the impression Henry died shortly after birth. They see the lanterns as a way to honor the prince’s life. The festival during the day was never originally a part of the lantern lightings, but as time went on and people forgot it was originally a memorial, it became more about the lanterns as a holiday than anything to do with the prince.
They come across the large wall mosaic, that of what might be the king and queen of this place holding a newborn baby. Henry, curious about the portrait, asks a bystander about it. They explain that, although the festival has overpowered its original intent, each year on the prince’s birthday the entire kingdom lights lanterns. And Henry looks to the mosaic, and to all his surroundings, and something clicks about the crest he sees everywhere. The Sun plastered on every surface imaginable is the same Sun he’s been painting all over the walls back in the tower. Unsure of himself, afraid of a certain possibility, Henry asks how old the prince is. The villager answers that he passed away twenty years ago right after he was born. Shakily, Henry thanks her for her time and tugs at Glenn to follow him.
Once standing somewhere slightly more private, Henry voices his anxieties. He has the same birthday as the prince; not just the day but the years as well. He points out all the Suns hanging around them. And he points out that the man in the mosaic looks a lot like him. And in his ramble he confesses to Willy visiting the other night when Glenn had walked off, warning Henry “he might not like what he finds in Oakvale”. Unsure of how to comfort Henry in this moment, Glenn begins to speak— he’s cut short by a royal guard. Both of them panic, cornered, but the guard assures them neither have anything to worry about. He only comes to deliver a message: the King wishes to speak with them. And he addresses Henry by name, though it was never given to him. Hard cut to Barry watching from a lower tower, his eyes following Henry as he walks towards the castle.
They’re lead down a hallway filled with various portraits of previous rulers, all looking too much like Henry and ramping up his anxieties. He feels Glenn take his hand, a small comfort letting him know he’s not braving this alone. When they reach their intended room, the door open to the man from the mosaic.
“Welcome home, Henry.”
Lottttttttsssss of talk talk talk here. Barry explains that he knew Henry would return to him today. In fact, he’s been keeping watch since this morning. He’d instructed his guards to let them enjoy the festivities, after all it’s a party in his honor, whether the rest of the kingdom remembers that or not. He wanted to let Henry come to him, but if he did not realize on his own then his guards had permission to guide him once the sun started its descent. Enraged, confused, multiple emotions boiling over at once, Henry demands an explanation for whatever the hell this all is. Barry explains a bit about the prophecy to Henry. How Henry was to be taken away until he was old enough to play his part. Not outright saying that Willy stole him away, but Barry does bring up that Willy’s role was to guard and protect Henry all this time until fate saw fit he return. Henry asks what could possibly be so important, what fate, that his apparent birth father willingly gave him up for someone else to raise. Barry then starts on the Doodler. Insert full prophecy here and how all of it is coming to pass, and then Barry turns to Glenn. He asked for the knife. Seeing the confusion and worry on Glenn’s face, Barry explains that the relic he stole is to be used in the summoning of the Doodler. That a bond is to be broken not only by ripping a god into this dimension but a bond broken between they who spills the vessel’s blood. Barry believes Glenn to be the one who is supposed to cut Henry.
Glenn doesn’t have the knife. In a flicker that only Henry notices, Barry’s eye twitches. Barry repeats himself that they need the knife for the ceremony. Glenn insists he doesn’t have the knife, that it got left back at— he doesn’t say. All of this is bullshit and they don’t have to listen to Barry. He’s not going to participate in some crazy cult ritual and he’s certainly not going to hurt his friend. With a heavy sigh, Barry orders for Glenn and Henry to be taken away. Clearly the ceremony cannot commence but he’s not letting them leave before the knife gets back to them. Immediately Glenn throws a punch at the guard who moved to grab him and yells at Henry to run. The two scramble to make their way out of the room, run down the halls, and out of the castle to the crowded streets where all the lanterns are being prepared. Weaving in and out of the packed streets as guards chase them. Darryl sees them running, but also who they’re running from. Loyalties divided as a guard tries to mount him, he runs away in panic not knowing who to choose. A guard catches Glenn, who screams for Henry to keep running. With tears in his eyes, Henry keeps going.
By the time he’s reached the forest, he’s exhausted. Henry collapses at the edge of the woods, crying as the night sky lights up with lanterns. Yeah that’s right they don’t get their cute boat scene where they almost kiss. Unfortunate. Maybe I’ll rework some other scene in earlier where they almost kiss but idk where that would go.
From the shadows, Willy. The only person he can turn to and one of the only people he can trust, Henry lets his ‘father’ lead him back home.
Meanwhile, Glenn is being led to a cell he’ll be locked away in. Barry might have given him a pass had Glenn played his part, but the knife is missing and now so is Henry again so they’ll just put him in jail until he wants to talk and tell them where the knife and Henry are. Barry monologues a bit to him, and here Glenn learns more about Willy. He realizes that Willy was only using Henry too, but also that Willy knows about all the Doodler shit and the knife is back at the tower (as far as he knows, but all the same Willy has it and can use it).
And then the doors around them close. The slot opens and Ron speaks from the other side, asking for the password. Barry, seemingly calm as ever, demands for the door to be opened. This scene is pretty much the same in that all the characters from the Snuggly Duckling show up to help Glenn escape, led by Darryl who brought them all there. Riding Darryl, Glenn races back to the tower to save Henry from Willy.
Everything from here plays pretty much the same. Instead of realizing he’s the Lost Prince, Henry comes to the realization that Willy was using him too. That his whole life he’s been seen as nothing but an object to be handed back and forth. He just learned his actual father willingly abandoned him only hoping he’d return like cattle for slaughter. And then the whiplash of realizing this guy who’s raised him his whole life, the man he ran back to when there was nobody else to trust, that there was never any love at all. He’s seen Henry as an object from the beginning as well. Henry’s just that damned flower and Willy has been keeping him hidden in his cage.
And Henry sits there and realizes that nobody has ever seen him as himself. Maybe Glenn did, but he’s probably dead by now. And it’s all Henry’s fault but Glenn saw Henry for him.
So the only person Henry has to trust is himself. He refuses to let Willy use him any longer. He’s tired of it all. But Willy won’t take no for an answer. He talks about how he always planned to cross Barry in the end, but he never thought it’d be this easy. All the work was practically done for him. He stands in front of the window, blocking any exit Henry has to escape, and pulls out the ceremonial knife. They won’t do it here, not when people know where this tower is now (because as far as Willy knows, Glenn could’ve told Barry where the tower is) so it’s too risky to perform the ceremony here, but Willy insists they will be summoning the Doodler into Henry and that they’re leaving now.
The rest follows pretty close to the story again from here. Glenn gets to the tower, only to find Henry bound and gagged while Willy fatally stabs him from behind. Willy tries to drag Henry away and out of the tower, but Henry continues to fight against Willy. He insists he’ll never stop trying to get away from him, but if Willy lets him heal Glenn, he’ll go willingly. Willy reluctantly agrees to this. Henry rushes to Glenn’s side, but before he can heal him, Glenn cuts Henry’s hair with a shard from a mirror that broke in Henry and Willy’s earlier struggle. Horrified, Willy begins to age rapidly, trips, and falls from the tower, hitting the ground as a pile of dust.
As the magic dies alongside Glenn, tears begin to stream down Henry’s face. The last of the flower falls with it and onto Glenn, which heals him and saves his life.
I’m not sure how I’d wrap it up from here. Do they run away to another kingdom, far away from Barry and anything to do with the Doodler? Is Barry somehow thrown out of power and the Cult of the Doodler destroyed, leaving Henry to take over if he wishes? I don’t know. But what I do know is that these two get a happy ending. A soft, domestic life where they adopt two beautiful boys that they name Lark and Sparrow. Henry teaches them how to paint (favored more by Sparrow) and Glenn teaches them how to fight and defend themselves.
I don’t know how it happens but I would want Barry overthrown immensely. I want Henry to reunite with his mother who played no part in this. I want Darryl to be everyone’s friend who’s also a horse. I want the Snuggly Duckling to become a much frequented pub where they all hang out. I had a silly idea that Ron makes Darryl a special “horse beer” that’s just a wheatgrass juice.
Anyways I think that’s pretty much everything. This AU has been plaguing me since the idea first popped in my head. I’m glad I managed to outline at least one of my AUs entirely lol.

“Merlin.”
“Arthur…”
Arthur glances down at Mordred “And who is this?” gesturing to the little boy.
Scrambling for an excuse Merlin rushes out “this is Mordred… he’s my little brother.” He quickly tacked on.
The prince lifts his head back to look at merlin. “So he’s from Ealdor?”
“Yes?”
Arthur raises a brow. “How did he manage get here?”
Before merlin can even think to respond, Mordred spoke a simple “Cart.” Being the first word he said out loud since Merlin met him, Merlin was a little dumbfounded.
Arthur was also taken for surprise before pondering then coming to a verdict. “You’re just like your older brother then. Sneaking off to do mischief seems to be a familial trait after all.”
“Oi!”

Listen, I don't do RPF, I can handle Treebark (because I have eyes), but this is crossing a line. Especially after the accusations by RK. I think his evidence is pretty compelling.

dead dove do not eat. i am aware this is a fucked up dynamic but it's fictional. it's not like the real blue stalker has a toxic codependent attraction to the guy they're assigned to kill (btw i mained qoh so i completely understand where you're coming from)

Hello! Your COTL art and AU is incredible! And your pinned Avatar looks very cool in otherworldly being way. Say, what happens in the Ascension of Mercy AU? What gave you the idea of prophets, false and true, regarding the Crowns? What about the other Crowns the Bishops had? Who are their prophets? What made Narinder willingly give up the Red Crown?
Drink water regularly, and may a kind week grace you.
Ohhh this is just too much fun to resist answering. 1. What gave you the idea of false/true prophets? Well the game itself gave me the idea!... I know I know, it sounds as though I'm being cheeky, but the tagline truly says "A Game of False Prophets" which...implies there are true prophets of the crown!
2. Who are the other prophets? No one is certain, the crown must be worn and tested for all the animals, but playing that game...is far too dangerous. However, Haro has told tales and prophecies of the true kings/queens of their Crown...The Lamb of Mercy, The Stag of Order, The Cattle of Harvest, The Snakes of Healing, and The Dove of Peace...But best leave them to live in ignorance... for now. 3. What made Narinder give up the crown? As soon as he made the deal with Lamb, it was long over down the line. Once he lay there, groveling and sulking in the sands of time looking up at the vengeful Lamb desperately trying to exercise restraint, he knew, the true prophet had shown their face.
4. What happens in the story of Ascension of Mercy? What you saw is...basically it! It's the story of Lamb...Ascending! Simple, cut and short, with lots of in-between. Now it may seem sparse, but I was inspired by stories such as Midsommar, Darkwood, and Mundaun. It's a trial. Is being a god truly a gift? Or is being a mortal that has a short few years on this earth...better?
As someone with a lot of anxiety and occasional existentialism, I decided to use Lamb as my therapy tool, what they go through is my fears. Living forever, eternity is a frightful concept for me, the unknown of what's going to happen to me, am I changing for the better or for the worse, am I a good person or will I succumb to my demons, Am I a coward that will not be able to protect those I love? Ascension of Mercy is essentially...the gift of the human experience.
Now there are some story beats, such as: - My plan for Lamb is to have a personal journal writing down their thoughts on certain NPCs. - Lamb witnessing the changes of the land no longer resembling its previous grounds - Lamb struggling with..."forgiveness", with the bishops and Narinder. I mean...they've committed genocide. It's hard to look at someone that was reborn as mortal. Who destroyed your entire family and gave you all your mental torment. They're..."Domesticated" sure, but they are not lacking in their bite. The only real Bishop they can get along with is...well. Shamura. Hard to fight with someone who had what was essentially is a tumor on their brain making them prone to aggression. Narinder warms up with Lamb eventually, sure, forever is a long time, but with the others, it's...so much harder, and they lack the proper patience in the meantime - Lastly, Lamb attempts to reverse what had been done, they want to bring back the goats, sheep, and lamb that had been killed...I won't say how that goes, it'll spoil the fun :)
