WATGBS AU: COTDS

WATGBS AU: COTDS is an Idate and IdaTatsu centric AU between me and my friends 💞 COTDS stands for Crown of the Dark Stars 👑💫 Its other name is Ankokusei no Kanmuri.

I just wanted to post some rough sketches/WIPs of my magical oarfish wife, and my homicidal oreo, my cat cot son 🤗 Magical oarfish MILF x Buff chaotic demon DILF.

I'm planning to give Tatsumiya matching Star and Moon earrings to match with Idate's Black Sun and Star ones...

Read more under the cut if you're interested in our IdaTatsu AU!

Our WATGBS AU is named Crown of the Dark Stars (暗黒星の冠, Ankokusei no Kanmuri) 💫👑 It's an AU with its own story, separate from the original WATGBS.

WATGBS AU: COTDS is an Idate and IdaTatsu centric AU between me and my friends 💞 COTDS stands for Crown of the Dark Stars 👑💫 Its other name is Ankokusei no Kanmuri.

WATGBS AU: COTDS, which stands for Crown of the Dark Stars, or Ankokusei no Kanmuri, is an Idate centric and IdaTatsu AU between me and my friends that's a complete revamp and rewrite of WATGBS.

WATGBS AU: COTDS is an AU between me and my friends! We all contribute to it whenever we have time to draw and write for it 😌🙏

Summary of WATGBS AU: COTDS would literally just be: (Yoinks characters and the settings, makes an original story)

It's just us writing our own stories and exploring our ideas with the characters, mainly focused on him and his dynamics with other charas. We made up our own lore and revamped the characters' writing and designs. It's just us playing with our revamped and rewritten blorbo OCs in our sandbox 💞

WATGBS AU: COTDS is centered around Idate, a chaotic evil demon orca man who originally wanted to unleash the apocalypse, but became too mellow after meeting Tatsumiya.

It's an Idate centric AU that heavily focuses on IdaTatsu (Idate/Tatsumiya), and the platonic familial dynamic between the orca brothers, Idate and his older twin brother, Takama. And it has a heavier emphasis on fantasy elements. And we have our own OCs we created for it too, like our IdaTatsu fankids 🤭

Idate: The Star Eater and Grand Demon

Idate (伊達 (イダテ)) is the evil protagonist of WATGBS AU: COTDS 🖤🤍💙 He is Tatsumiya's husband and Takama's younger twin brother.

Idate is the "Star Eater" and Lord of the Underworld. Idate drinks peoples' blood and eats their souls as nourishment. He and his older twin brothers are Demons. They're secretly Grand Demons (大魔王, Dai Maou), who have much more powerful magic than other Demons. They originally lived in Iceberg Isle, but Idate ends up convincing Takama to move to the Blue Sea Kingdom with him so he can live with Tatsumiya.

He's a chaotic evil demon orca and the evil protag of our AU, which makes him very fun for me to write! 🐬💞 I love writing for IdaTatsu and the others, and coming up with and adding onto each everyones' ideas whenever we discuss.

He's extremely chaotic and the world's most insufferable wifeguy /endearing that falls devastatingly in love with and eventually gets married to Tatsumiya. They feel drawn to each other, someone who's the complete opposite of the other, someone who represents what the other has never known, and tries to figure each other out.

Idate's character theme is "Void" 🖤

Idate eating and stealing souls also plays up to his whole void theme.

He's the Lord of Space and the Underworld, whose void world that contains the dead souls of all the people he ate for power.

Idate's powers represent the concept of "Void."

Idate can access a different dimension (the void between worlds), to create darkness and call it from within himself. Infinite darkness. An infinite void. Idate can create and access voids, and can call upon and manipulate darkness.

Idate's leitmotif is the Black Sun. His void is a black hole.

Idate can make makeshift weapons from dark energy. It's a black demon aura that can be controlled at will and slash into things.

Stardust is the source of all magic in the sea in our AU. Idate can make makeshift weapons from dark energy (black stardust).

Tatsumiya: The Dragon Flower and Grand Sorcerer of the Blue Sea

Tatsumiya (竜宮) is the Grand Sorcerer of the Blue Sea Kingdom 🤍❤️ She's the Lord of Creation, and Idate's wife. And also my wifey wife wife <3 🥰😘 She's a magical oarfish that serves the Blue Sea Kingdom's Princess, Lucinda, our Blue Sea Princess (BSP) OC. Her specialties are healing and star magic. 🌠

She's known as the Dragon Flower (龍花, Ryuuka) because her reputation with the sword spread across the Blue Sea. She has soul restoration and soothing properties with her powers to calm souls.

Tatsumiya is the Messenger/Aide to the Blue Sea Kingdom's Princess 💞 Her title is Grand Sorcerer (大魔導士, Dai-Madoushi). In our WATGBS AU, she took on the role after Meikai's disappearance.

Tatsumiya's leitmotif is the Moon.

As the complete opposite of Idate, her main powers are controlling flowing water, star magic (creation magic), and healing. Her royal duties as the Blue Sea's Messenger, are similar to a shrine maiden's.

Tatsumiya is so wifey to me 🤭

In WATGBS AU: COTDS, she is Idate's wife!

IdaTatsu: The Two Messengers, the Sun and the Moon

Tatsumiya is the Blue Sea Kingdom's Grand Sorcerer. Idate is one of the Grand Demons that came from elsewhere. The two Messengers of their opposing Gods.

Idate and Tatsumiya are opposites in terms of their powers, personalities, and roles. Both Idate and Tatsu are Messengers of their opposing "Gods" and queens. Our own OCs, Algol and Lucinda, are the Red Sea Princess (BSP) and Blue Sea Princess (BSP) respectively.

Tatsumiya, one of the brightest stars in the sea, and Idate the Star Eater 💞

WATGBS AU: COTDS' headcanon versions of the characters' designs

In our WATGBS AU's revamped versions of the charas (our headcanon designs), Idate is buff and has scars.

He wears blue eyeliner, and black sun and star earrings to match with Tatsumiya's red eyeliner and star and moon earrings 🌠☀️🌕

(I'll add Tatsu's earrings in the future!)

Idate wears blue eyeliner, which is the same as Tatsumiya's favourite colour, ultramarine blue (群青色, gunjyou iro) 💙

At first this was coincidental, I added it to his design cuz I thought he looked nice with eyeliner and so it'd have great visual contrast with Tatsu's design, but then I found out that Tatsu's favourite colour was ultramarine blue. So the colour I chose for Idate's eyeliner coincidentally, ended up being the same as Tatsu's fave colour…

Unintentional big brain play from me 😌

I want to give them matching couple eyeliner and earrings! Idate wears black sun and star earrings, and Tatsu wears moon and star ones ☀️🌙🌠

Ofc these are still WIPs, so I'm planning to add them eventually.

IdaTatsu are the Sun/Moon, Yin/Yang, Light/Darkness themed couple in our AU <3 The Black Sun and the Moon ☀️🖤🌙

IdaTatsu's leitmotifs have a lot of narrative significance in COTDS, which ties back to our AU's central themes 🙏 I've given a lot of focus to their relationship ☺️

Name Meanings

Idate (伊達) 伊達 = Meaning “elegance; gallantry; sophistication; showy; having style”, or “putting on airs; showing off”

I chose the kanji reading Idate (伊達) cuz both meanings fit him very well! 🖤🤗

Idate (伊達) is my headcanon kanji reading of Idate's name. Since I wanted to pick a reading with a fitting name meaning for him!

My son. My homicidal oreo… 🐬 Oreorcat

I'll eventually turn these WIPs into concept art reference sheets! Though I might format them differently.

Tatsumiya (竜宮) 竜宮 = Meaning “Dragon Palace”

It's an alternate reading of Ryuuguu 🐉🏯 The Undersea Dragon Palace from the story of Urashima Tarou in Japanese folklore.

It comes from 竜宮の使い (Ryuuguu no tsukai), a giant deep-sea oarfish, known as "The Messenger/Envoy of the Undersea God's Palace" which is exactly what Tatsumiya represents as a character!

I chose kanji readings of Idate and his older twin brother Takama's names, as well for our other OCs in WATGBS AU: COTDS, like our IdaTatsu fankids. I'm excited to show them in the future 🤗💞

アーロと少年

２０１５年／アメリカ／カラー／９４分

　ディズニー＆ピクサー製作によるアニメ作品「アーロと少年」をレンタルDVDで。

　隕石が落ちず恐竜が絶滅しなかった地球。草食恐竜のアパトサウルス、ヘンリーとイダの夫婦は農業をすることで自給自足の生活を成り立てていた。その夫婦の間に出来た三つの卵がふ化。姉のリビー、兄のバックに遅れてアーロが生まれる。アーロは生まれつき小さく産まれ、成長してもそれは変わらず兄や姉からのからかいの対象になっていた。そんな中、収穫したトウモロコシを貯蔵するサイロから盗まれた形跡があったことからヘンリーは罠を仕掛け、アーロに監視の役割を与える。やがて人間の少年が引っかかるが、言葉を喋れず凶暴な少年にアーロはおびえ罠を壊して逃がしてしまう。その事をヘンリーは責め、アーロを連れて人間の少年を追いかける。しかし悪天候からの鉄砲水に襲われたためにヘンリーはアーロを高台に逃がした後、飲み込まれて消えてしまう。

　傷心のアーロの前に再び少年が現れる。父の敵と追いかけていくが今度は彼が川に落ちてしまい家から遠く離れたところに流されてしまう。ここでも少年と反目していたが次第に気持ちが通じ合いアーロは少年をスポットと名付ける。二人で故郷に帰ろうとする道中に様々な出会いがあり…というお話でした。

　「スタンド・バイ・ミー（1986年）」のように少年達が旅をすることで成長していく話ではあるのですが…いまいちだったなぁ。架空の世界とはいえ観客の世界とリンクするところが少なくてアーロに感情移入しにくい。同じ擬人化作品でディズニー作品でもある「ズートピア（2016年）」がそこを上手くやっているだけにどうしても比べてしまうんだよな…。あと人間の少年がこの世界ではペットの犬的な扱い（「スポット」という名前は海外ではポチ的な一番人気の名前なんだとか）という居心地の悪さも感情移入をぶれさせている一因になっているのかも。

　あとタイトル通り「アーロと少年」だけの二人旅の話なのですが、この二人しかいない事で物語を面白くしていくための手持ちのカードをわざわざ少なくしているのが勿体ない。カードが少ない事で観客が予想する展開以上の事、味付けとしての物語の伏兵とか物語の波を生み出す物がない（ゼロではないんだけど）。タラレバはあまり言いたくないんだけど父ヘンリーをいきなり亡くすのではなく、三人旅にして盛り上がったところで彼を亡くし、物語として大きく落ちたところからアーロをどーんと成長させるとか、面白くする方法はいくらでもあったと思うんですが…。

3.5Part1メインクエストを終わらせて。

メインクエストを終わらせて……俺は泣きも怒りもせず……ただ放心していた。 本当は終わらせた時に書きたかったけど、放心状態から立ち直れなくて出来なかった。 また一人仲間が居なくなった。 師と同じ様に。 パパリモが世界を護らんと、居なくなってしまった。 相棒のイダを残して。 確かにイダは｢何か｣をやり残してる。 だが、あまりにも唐突に……居なくなった。 他に方法は無かったのだろうけど、やはり唐突すぎて……。 英雄とか光の戦士とかいう枷のせいで、一体何人の仲間を喪ってしまうのだろう。 冒険者として最初はただ手を貸していただけだったのに。 私はレガシーでも無いし、グリダニア出身でも無いからパパリモとは接点はそこまで無いけど、仲間には代わり無い。 蛮神は願いとクリスタルがあれば顕現できる。 でも｢アレ｣はクリスタルも無かったのに召喚された。 クリスタルはエーテルの塊だ。 そしてあそこはクリスタルの代わりに二つの竜の眼があった。 竜の眼は何度も使われた。 光の刃として、魔大陸に行くための牙として。 たった一つであれだけの事があったのに、鉄仮面は二つも持っていた。 そして肝心の願い。 鉄仮面自身の願いと散っていった者達の願いの。 かなりの人数が居ただろうし、鉄仮面自身の……ね。 目の前で蛮神問題を見てきたはずなのに結局は故郷奪還に前が見えてなかった。 見えていたつもりだったんだろうけど……。 故郷奪還する為に強大な力を欲するのは蛮神を召喚せんとする蛮族と同じなのにな。 これが3.5Part2の布石なんだろうけど、こんな状態で２ヶ月も……。
