i saw u mention an hmc/mdzs crossover au 😳👉🏼👈🏼 would u care to share abt it...? (ive been formulating one too btw!!! so im super excited to see others coming up w it too!!)
ooihngjgoooho!!!! my howls moving castle au was the Very first mdzs au I ever made :") this was way back when I had very few followers and I'm sure like maybe five people remember it but I had the whole thing planned out like I literally watched the movie and wrote down the entire plot so I could get that shit down to the tiniest detail. and then it just sorta.. faded away from me? those posts are probably very buried so I'll share what I remember/could find on my phone with you here:
okay FIRSTLY let's break down who is who:
- howl: wei wuxian
- sophie: lan wangji
- calcifer: wen ning
- marukuru: sizhui
- turnip head/prince: jiang yanli
- madam suliman: madam yu
- the witch of the waste: jiang cheng
(I could never figure out wen qing and it truly is a tragedy)
now... I'm sure you're lookin at some of these and thinking ben what the fuck are you talking about but LISTEN it makes sense okay It Makes Sense
heres a little run down of the plot/main concept I will try to keep it short but who knows with my unpredictable adhd brain 😳
so little explanation of the relationships and why everyone is who they are and how that all works:
wei wuxian is the adopted son of king jiang fengmian/the apprentice of his wife and head sorceress, madam yu, but he runs away from home when he loses his heart. jiang cheng, aka the crown prince aka the wizard of the wastes, wanders the wastes looking for his brothers heart in hopes it'll bring him back home, but more recently he is looking for princess jiang yanli who recently went missing
the story behind wei wuxians heart is that instead of wen ning having his heart, he's the only one who knows where it is/how to get it back/etc. wei wuxian gave his heart to jiang cheng when he was cursed and something happened to his heart but jiang cheng does Not know about this, he just thinks wei wuxians heart was stolen and that if he's able to get it back wei wuxian will come home, but has no idea he's the one who actually has it. wen ning is for whatever reason the only one who can transfer the heart/keep wei wuxian safe without him having one but this also means that wen ning can never be "free"/separate from wei wuxian
okay,, now that we've got the logistics and back story outta the way heres the actual premise I'm trying so hard to keep it short:
- lan wangji is a talented musician/singer whose family owns a music shop. he runs into wei wuxian one day in town (when wei wuxian is buying wine) and is briefly saved by him
- he later finds out who it was and hears rumors that wei wuxian is an evil wizard who lost his heart so now he goes around taking other peoples hearts, turning them into zombies, and controlling them
- jiang cheng hears that lan wangji was seen with wei wuxian and goes to interrogate him but lan wangji says all he knows are rumors hes heard, jiang cheng mistakes this as lan wangji speaking ill of his brother, and instead of cursing him to look old, he curses him to not be able to speak/sing and he can only communicate through using his guqin (which the other characters can understand it just means what he can say is v limited), a side effect of which being his hair turning white because I Said so
- lan wangji goes to the wastes to find answers/get help and comes across turnip head aka yanli who leads him to the castle, where he meets wen ning and makes a deal with him that if wen ning helps fugureboutvhow to break his curse, lan wangji will find a way to break wen nings "curse", which he will not divulge the details of
and that's most of the plot that hangs on the "au" part of this until it flows into pretty much exactly what the howls moving castle plot is except for like. a few pieces that obviously shift based on the way I changed all of the relationships etc
I also had a much less elaborate spirited away au (people who remember kamaji!lan xichen you're the real mvps 😔✊) but that was a lot less thought out zkhzkGjz
(edit: @transwenqing tell me about your au too I am curious!!!)

Hyper-fixations!! (aka- my stan list)
yo so I've realized I always hyper-fixate on characters in media that I either relate to, wish to be like, or draw comfort from.... so bc I'm bored here's some peeps in this category:
•Taako (The Adventure Zone Balance) - want to be like - openly himself, multidimensional, fully realized creation, loved by many, charismatic, in a good and healthy relationship (thats also so supportive and cute and god wheres my gf version of kravitz???), unapologetic, went through some shit and came out different and with issues but is still just good, loves family, passionate
•Angus McDonald (The Adventure Zone Balance) - comfort character - hes just a sweet lil guy who just loves his weird found family and is just so smart and precious and i love him with my whole soul and being, makes me smile whenever he pops up
•Magic Brian (The Adventure Zone Balance) - comfort character - can never fail to make me laugh and smile
•Hurley (The Adventure Zone Balance) - relate to - a small ball of energy, typically a rule follower but likes to stray away sometimes, a gay!!, lowkey likes to race in my jeep (its only with my one friend and its not a legit race but we say it is and its v fun)
•Carey Fangbattle (The Adventure Zone Balance) - relate to / want to be like - tiny but big personality, a gay!!, fiesty, sneaky, tough cookie, loves a tall butch girl (i do not have a tall butch girl to love but maybe someday!!), badass little rogue (i wish)
•Virgil "Anxiety" Sanders (Sanders Sides/Thomas Sanders) - relate to - anxious ball of something, many people consider cute although deny it / dont believe it, self deprecating!!, needs a hug, tries to be intimidating but fails, the mom™ friend
•Lapis Lazuli (Steven Universe) - relate to - felt lost, felt ostracized from friends (sometimes true sometimes not - gee, cognitive distortions are a bitch), found people and felt comfortable and at home with them, found family, self deprecating, separates self to not get hurt, wants to protect but also avoid, sad™
•Peridot (Steven Universe) - comfort character - had genuine growth as a character which is nice to see, is silly but also can be serious, makes me smile whenever i see her
•Howl (Howl’s Moving Castle) - relate to / want to be like - very much himself, overdramatic af (drama queen and a diva), sees the best in people, cares based on personality rather than looks (calls an old lady beautiful bc she has a good heart), a versatile lgbt (looks and acts like a gay but dates a pretty girl, the dream ngl), fashionable af and dyes hair fun colors
•Calcifer (Howl’s Moving Castle) - relate to - sassy little bitch, underappreciated until absolutely needed, small and typically seen as tame but can have a big personality at times
•Sophie Hatter (Howl’s Moving Castle) - relate to / want to be like - the odd one out, seen as ordinary, never the pretty one but always the average or forgettable one, always someone better and not often liked, when liked its always true and based on a beautiful personality, finds real love in an unlikely situation (wheres my love in life?), makes own path and doesnt care what people say/think, ambitious, does what needs to be done even if its hard, comforting maternal presence but also dominant and assertive when needed, gets shit done
•Kiki (Kiki's Delivery Service) - relate to / want to be like - is an outsider but finds her place eventually, inexperienced but trying her best, works hard in all she does, makes something of herself (i hope someday thats me), makes the best out of a bad situation
•Stitch (Lilo & Stitch) - relate to - lost, searching for home and family, feel constantly different from everyone else, runs away from problems before finally solving/fixing them
•Baymax (Big Hero 6) - comfort character - was there for hiro and did whatever possible the whole movie to help him (learning about grieving, sacrificing, etc), and there was a time in my life that I really needed that presence and didn’t have it that way at the time, but now 14 years later I’m in a much better state mentally but baymax still makes me cry bc he reminds me of stuff™, (tbh i got to “meet baymax” at disney when i was 16 and lowkey was so excited and cried a bit, and my friend bought me a stuffed animal baymax that afternoon for my birthday and i sobbed and carried it around in my bag for the rest of the trip)
•Hiro (Big Hero 6) - relate to - ((this is gonna get sad sorry ://)) so like hiro i lost a sibling (however i was much younger than hiro and my sibling was younger than me) in a way that it was inflicted by someone else but was “unintentional/collateral” and i didnt really deal with it for a while until i actually got help and started doing things again to get back into normal life. i sob beginning to end during bh6 bc i feel for hiro and i know what hes going through and what its like and it sucks
•Alice (Alice in Wonderland) - relate to - gets lost in own head a lot, kinda a wonky imagination, doesnt follow own advice (”i give myself very good advice, but i very seldom follow it”), happy doing own thing until lost or lonely which then leads to fear and anxiety, doesnt know who to trust, trying to find something that isnt easily found
•Oswald the Lucky Rabbit (Disney) - relate to - ((please look up oswalds story if you dont know who he is- in brief terms, he was a cartoon walt disney made and abandoned when he made his own studio (c. 1920s) and was replaced by mickey and was forgotten about until 2006)) cast aside, forgotten about, replaced, wants to belong
•Carson Phillips (Struck by Lightning) - want to be like / relate to - snarky and sarcastic bitch, does what he needs to in order to get shit done, a “penetrating personality” (literally a quote from the mf book), ambitious, goals bigger than anyone thinks they should be, makes morally ambiguous decisions to get what he wants

•Kurt Hummel (Glee) - want to be like / comfort character - open about who he is, fashionable af, in the actual cutest couple on glee yall can fight me about it, learned to love himself then never stopped, a sassy queen always (i have so many of his mannerisms smh), went from cute twink to muscle boy and wow we love a glow-up, went from being bullied into submission and scared to being open and standing up for others even if he gets hurt, always made me smile, first real lgbt person i saw in the media and helped me embrace myself fully
•Klaus Hargreeves (The Umbrella Academy) - relate to - outcast, lotta mental health issues, music lover and bad dancer, headphones always on, bad experiences and trauma formed self, kinda lazy

•Elphaba Thropp (Wicked) - relate to - cast out, different from everyone else, unique in own way, never the pretty one
----------------------------------------------------
and some honorable mentions of real people I connect with comfort and strive to be like in my day to day life (like ive taken on a lot of their mannerisms or sayings):
•Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy) - literally the sweetest person ever, super talented in so many different ways, so positive and inspirational (esp about mental health)
•Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance, Umbrella Academy) - always accepting of people (esp lgbt!! gay rights!!), multi-dimensional, versatile talents (singer, song writer, artist, comic book writer)

•Hayley Kiyoko (Singer) - lesbian jesus, came out even though she was told it could ruin her career, so truly herself, open about lgbt issues and mental health, positive towards everyone, encourages everyone to open up and be unapologetically themselves
•Eugene Lee Yang (Try Guys) - authentically himself, isn’t afraid of what people thing, does his own thing even if its different and odd to some, lgbt!!, a shady bitch in the best way, has his own style and kills it always
