Comic !!! Kuu is my Ahit oc
Bonus doodles that lead to kiss in question vvv 😋
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Conductor was most likely talking about Movies and Kuu went “maybe we can continue you this in the broom closet-“ they smooched… 😳.. REASON why Conductor is so nervous is because Kuu is Snatcher’s adopted sister ((he made her with magic yadda yadda)) and Snatcher’s has already warned the owl that he’d steal his sole if he tried to mooch on his sister.. tho Kuu would never let that happen tbh lol
ALSO EMPRESS IS KINDA FUN TO DRAW GUYS 🫶

Moulin Rouge Discotrain AU (part five)
Summary: (Post-game canon) The Conductor and DJ Grooves agree to finally work on a movie together. They come up with 'Moulin Rouge', a musical drama filled with romance. Over time the two directors grow closer and discover that maybe they don't hate each other as much.
Beginning | Previous | Next
Word count: 1,070
Warnings: More Snatcher talking about being dead, Conductor remembering fighting Hat Kid, Conductor briefly uses a knife(?)
Author's notes: Not much Conductor and Grooves this chapter, sorry. But I do bring another enemy of Hat Kid to our cast of characters so that's something, right? Snatcher is back again to... do Snatcher-esque things.
"Who is it?" Conductor asked, looking up at the knock that came from his door.
"Harold Zidler. That is the name of the person you cast me as, right?"
"Come in Snatcher," he sighed, watching as the ghost opened the door.
Surprisingly, he didn't look the same as when they first met. He looked more humanoid, even if he was still purple with a couple yellow features. His regal looking attire made him seem even more out of place as he pushed long curls out the way of his face.
"I changed. Just like you said," Snatcher said, a slight grit to his words.
"You okay?"
"No, I don't really know how to look. I tried to look like how I did before I died and it's more than a bit unsettling," Snatcher admitted, fidgeting from one foot to another.
"Reminds me of my death which honestly isn't doing anything good for me. Lot of unresolved issues with that to be honest. No, I don't want to talk about it."
"I don't want you to."
"Great! Any suggestions?" Snatcher laughed nervously.
"The girl's bringing in a couple more possible actors today. You could make yourself look more like one of them?" Conductor suggested.
Snatcher nodded vigorously, eyes darting to look at posters on the walls of the office.
"Yeah, that could work, thanks," Snatcher replied.
The owl stood, walking over and placing a hand on the ghost's arm. "You seem pretty nervous lad. Wanna talk about it?"
"No, I already said I didn't want to talk about it," Snatcher growled, yanking his arm away.
"Alright. Do yer wanna go wait for the lass and her friends?" Conductor offered. Snatcher frowned, crossing his arms and looking away.
"Yes," he mumbled.
"Let's go do that then."
Conductor opened the door to his office, ushering the ghost out before leading the way to the reception.
Hat Kid jumped up and down and waved as the two of them entered, pointing at the large cat beside her.
The cat was probably the same height that Snatcher was at the moment, a scar crossing over the left of her yellow eyes. A mane of white hair swept behind her head, contrasting her face's dark grey fur. A red coat with a white fur collar was slung round her shoulder as her fur faded from grey to white, back to grey at her feet. Her two upper paws had rings on the fingers but were cuffed together.
"Finally, someone who looks like they have some sense of authority." The cat rolled her eyes, holding up cuffed paws. "Would you mind?"
Conductor drew a knife from his coat, slashing through the chain of the cuffs before putting it away.
"How long have you had that for?!" Snatcher exclaimed, looking with wide-eyed panic down at the bird.
Conductor shrugged.
"Generally or what? I've owned the knife for years."
"Are you okay?!"
"Probably not. But-" Conductor clapped his hands together, returning his attention to the cat. "You seem just the type for the role of the Duke! Yer hired! What's your name?"
"Empress," she replied. "Now, I just have a few questions."
"Of course. Fire away lass."
"Who are you, where am I, what movie are we making, and am I getting paid?"
"I'm the Conductor, I'm one of the directors. Yer in the Dead Bird Studio. The movie's called Moulin Rouge and yes, we can negotiate payment," Conductor responded.
Empress' tail flicked away from Hat Kid as the small person clapped.
"Do I have to work with her?" Empress spat the final word, glancing distastefully in the direction of the girl.
"You have history with her too?" Snatcher asked.
"Have history with her? I want her dead! The only reason I'm here is to get a reduced sentence! She's the reason I ended up in jail!" Empress raged.
"I get it, I really do. She wouldn't let me kill her once she became useless and then forced me to be her friend!" Snatcher added, nudging the small girl.
Hat Kid beamed up at him, giving him a thumbs up.
"God we really need to sign that contract that'll make you talk. It'll be the death of me- oh wait, it won't. Nessa did that and you screwed up breaking into her place!"
Hat Kid shrugged and giggled before walking over to a Moon Penguin.
"Can we get back on track?" Conductor sighed impatiently.
A flipper landed on his shoulder and the owl tensed, inhaling sharply.
"Who's this, darling?" Grooves asked, sunglasses tilted down on his beak slightly as he looked at Empress.
"We found our Duke," Conductor explained.
"Yeah, I still have no idea about what is going on, can I just have my money and a script?" Empress asked, ripping the cuffs off her wrists.
"Um, yes…Conductor, a moment please?" Grooves requested, dragging the owl aside a few feet. "Darling, is that a criminal?!"
"We can still hear you, you're not exactly being subtle," Snatcher pointed out.
"Besides, you hired me. I'm dead! How is a criminal much worse than that?"
Grooves sighed and walked himself and the Conductor to the other side of the reception.
"Darling, really, we should think this through," Grooves pleaded. Conductor looked away, crossing his arms.
"You heard her. She's doing it to get a reduced sentence. No criminal would compromise a reduced sentence. They'd have ta be mad to do that!" Conductor argued.
"Please darling. Can we just spend a while thinking about it?"
Conductor turned back to Grooves, staring into the penguin's star shaped glasses, just about making out the shadows of his eyes.
The dark lenses seemed to be breaking through his walls, staring at all his broken pieces.
The last time he'd felt afraid was fighting Hat Kid.
When he'd been terrified about what would become of his reputation, his life.
His family.
When he'd tried to steal a timepiece to correct what should've been his award.
Award 42.
Grooves' award.
A shiver ran down his spine again, that creeping feeling of fear. The ice cold realisation.
Thoughts of his family flitted across his mind.
His daughter, his grandchildren.
What might've happened to them?
He repressed the thoughts, burying them with other memories he didn't wish to think of again.
"Fine. We'll do it your way," Conductor conceded, looking away again.
"Cool. Shall we go review her actual acting strengths and weaknesses then?"
"I said fine didn't I?"

The Empress (who I wish had a storybook, I wanna know more about her).
Peck, the depressed walrus captain got one and I don't think he's more popular than Empress.

carefully sets down an au ive decided to call a hat on broadway. its an actor au where instead of puppets n stuff, its a broadcasted stage play. yes i made there be two mjs. i wanted to.
one mj is the son of the investors that gets added to casts because its part of investment deals, the other is the sibling of the actor that plays the prince and the snatcher when casting is all done

- d'jaune grover as dj grooves
- hibiscus creek aka biscut as the florist
- martin jay kellen as mean mj
- mitchell jean ludros as nice mj

Febuwhump Day Twenty Six: "Help them"
Warnings: Death, injury, swearing, violence
Word count: 1,324
Author's notes: So I still haven't written the finale climax chapter of Empress' sidestory but I have a taster from Badge's point of view instead.
Badge tried not to flinch back too much at the recoil as another bright beam of light shot off into the distance. “Emily! Where are you?!”
No answer, and they couldn't turn their attention away from the oncoming waves of gang members.
They sighed, remembering how she hadn't replied earlier to that name either.
They tried the one she was claiming was her's now.
“Empress!”
A flicker of grey and white fur in his peripherals, running past and swinging a bat at the call of her name. “We have to get inside!”
“And I'm meant to be a miracle worker?” Badge spat, venom bleeding into their words.
Empress yanked them backwards by their hoodie, snarling slightly. “No but I expected better of you when you decided to come back and try to help me!”
Badge's ears flattened back against their head and they hissed at her. “Fuck you, I may have suffered on my travels but that doesn't mean I can do everything, Emily!”
“Don't call me that!” Empress growled, ripping one of the badges off of them and haphazardly pinning it to her own jacket.
She spun around, charging a beam at the end of her bat and aiming for the door before letting it fire.
The recoil was large, sending her skidding backwards by about a metre, claw marks scraping into the ground.
There was the sound of cracking above them, a mix of stones and glass beginning to shed down on them.
Empress' yellow eye widened and she rushed forwards, pushing Badge out of the way as one of the higher levels crumbled.
Badge would've felt splintering pain if the metal pole that went through their middle could still be felt.
However their shadowy form merely melted slightly before they rolled to the side and reformed their body.
Badge scrambled to their feet, staring around at their dust covered surroundings. “Emily!”
A faint cough from the barricade of rubble ahead of them.
“Not…my name…”
Badge choked out a relieved sob, rushing forwards and trying to shift debris covering their older sister. “Just- just hold on! I'm getting you outta there!”
Empress shot him a wry smile. “Yeah, I don't think it'll be that easy. I can shift around a little here but I can't feel my arm.”
Badge's eyes widened and they worked harder to try and get her out. “Your arm is broken?!”
“No, don't worry, it's probably just dislocated. Nothing that hasn't happened before. Besides, I'm not the priority right now,” Empress said with a slight grit of her teeth.
“What do you mean you're not the priority right now, you're going to die if I don't get you out of there!” Badge exclaimed, managing to dig one of Empress' arms free.
The white and grey cat gently swiped at him, probably using a fair bit of energy to do so. “I mean that there are far more pressing matters.” She feebly pointed at the chasm in the wall behind Badge. “There are crèchelings in that building. I need you to get them to safety, no matter the cost. Help them, not me.”
“I'm not letting you be the cost! No!”
“Badge-”
The black cat glared down at her, green orbs meeting yellow. “No! I don't care about some crèchelings I've never met! I'm not losing my sister!”
Empress' face softened ever so minutely, the edges growing less sharp. “Badge…”
Badge paused in their motions, crouching in front of her and resting their head against her's. “I'm not leaving you. I'm not losing you again.”
Empress sighed, eyes fluttering closed. “I know. And you won't. I just hope you forgive me.”
Badge's eyes sprung open at that and they looked around wildly.
To their right, Empress' hand, desperately clutching her bat upright, a beam firing off at the remaining delicate infrastructure.
Badge scrambled back to safety, only realising after what Empress had done.
She'd practically entombed herself.
“Snatcher!” Badge roared at the top of their lungs, the air around them popping and hissing with static.
“What is it now, little wanderer?” The ghost's voice echoed from some unknown location.
“I need some of your souls!”
“What?! I think you're forgetting which of us owns the other’s soul here.”
“Please! I can give you anything you want! I just need a couple of them to help my friend out of there!” Badge pleaded, desperately trying to dig through the fortress of ruins.
There was a slight pause before the reply. “Anything?”
“Anything!” Badge repeated. “My eyes, my lungs, my heart! Take what you want! Just please, I want my sister!”
The ghost cackled, the sound bouncing around the small space. “A deal is a deal, kiddo! No going back on that! You finish up here and then come back to the Subcon! We have lots to discuss about further business endeavours and how much you owe me…”
Two flickering blue forms appeared either side of them as their chest stung with pain.
One of Badge’s paws reached to claw at their chest, blood welling in their mouth briefly before the swallowed it down. “You took my heart…”
“You said to take your eyes, lungs, or heart! Not my fault you offered up such a vital organ!” Snatcher cackled, appearing as another flickering form beside the two blue ones and taking over where Badge had been working.
They didn't have a heart.
They didn't have a heart, how were they still alive, they should be dead by all rights, how were they alive?!
They should be dead, they should be dead, they should be-
“Throw your personal crisis out the window, kid, are you gonna help move this or not?” Snatcher called with a low growl.
Badge scrambled to beside the Subcon’s ruler, glancing between where Empress last was and the ghost beside him. “How do you think I'm still alive?”
Snatcher shrugged as he scooped a handful of glass shards out of the way. “Who knows? I mean, you've been all over the place, I wouldn't be surprised if you picked up a curse or two along the way.”
“A curse?” Badge inquired.
“Like me. You're stuck in a weird limbo between life and death. Legally and physically, you're dead. Mentally and emotionally? You still feel alive.”
Badge stopped short of a reply as he spotted a white paw poking out from between slabs of concrete. “Emily!”
Snatcher and the two soul-puppets helped slowly shift her out, laying her broken and mangled body on the ground.
“Fuck, no, you can't leave me! You promised! You promised! You promised you wouldn't be the cost!” Badge cried, sinking onto the floor beside her body. “Snatcher, please, can't you bring her back?”
The ghost took a shaky breath in as he moved closer to her. “I can try but- how banged up was she before she died?”
Badge's vision welled with tears. “Bad. But not bad enough she'd die straight away.”
The ghost looked slightly doubtful but nodded. “I can bring her back.”
“How much will it cost?”
“This one's for free, kid. You've already given up enough for this cat, I can tell you love her lots. I'm not making you risk yourself more for her,” Snatcher said quietly, one hand reaching out to gently move her face. “Fucking hells, what happened to her eye?”
“She did,” Badge whispered.
Snatcher's expression hardened. “Go deal with whatever is going on in that building. One of the other entrances just got busted down, I can feel it. I'll handle your friend. Just make sure that you sort out whatever is going on here.”
Badge nodded, shakily getting to their feet. “Can I trust you?”
“Badge, please,” Snatcher chuckled. “I have your soul and your heart. I can't do much worse, can I?”
Badge managed a lopsided smile before turning and dashing into the building.
Help them.
Help them, help them, help them.
That's what Em had said.
That was all they could really do.
