Halbarry Week x Big Bang

Hazards of the Job

Character design sketches for an upcoming Big Bang collaboration with Sweet Apples! Check back Saturday September 2nd for chapter 1 and the illustration!

Racefliers, athletes who compete against the worlds best and fastest flyers for a chance of being the once in four years champion. Barry Allen, a name that Hal only knew from his friend’s mouth as Ollie raved about the champion title and the influence “Flash” carried over fans. The racer didn’t have any significance to Hal though, at least until Ollie convinced Hal to help him vandalize the Flash track insignia the day before the first race of the year during a drunken night. Catchers, fliers hired to catch racers in distress. The same position that Hal was forced to pretend to be in when he awoke the next day in the stadium. Waiting out the event out of moral obligation, Hal found himself in another pickle. A collision sending the Flash crashing down- and taking Hal with him when the vandalizer turned Catcher attempted to catch him. The legalities afterwards continued the problem. Video footage and Hal’s witness to the collision bringing a discovery that it wasn’t just an accident, but the coverup of Hal’s involvement could turn his statements futile at any turn. And the budding looks and quiet conversations between him and the recovering champion was a whole new problem by itself.

Update: See the final image and the posted story!

For a writing of the week HalBarry, I'm going to have to watch Justice League Dark: Apokolips War again and read the chapters of DC vs. Vampires...In fact, "writing" is a synonym of "being a masochist"

#DC #halbarry #Halbarry Week 2022 #halbarry week #Hal Jordan #Barry Allen #I don't wannnnt #I shed a small tear for Hal's death at 14 minutes and 52 seconds #BECAUSE YES I KNOW THE EXACT TIME OR HAL DIES ! A PROBLEM ?! #And for Barry...my god my poor Barry I cried my eyes out #It was the first movie that made me cry

Yknow, if I’m on Tumblr, I may as well use it to shout my many thoughts into the void. Today’s topic is Nesting Instinct, my theoretical submission for Halbarry Week 2023 (if I finish it) and companion piece for Bluer Skies, which is topgun but like. Whatever!! TG characters don’t even show up in this one, just get referenced a couple of times. I do what I want, and what I want is to turn my favorite characters into birds.

For context, this is a Wing AU where those with wings are called avians. 98% of characters in NI will be avians. All avians have inherent magic since avians are inherently magical creatures, but one avian from each flock got extra magic powers that helped that flock escape human persecution a few hundred years ago, and that magic is passed down from one Protector to another.

Alright, let’s bullet point.

- Fun fact!! It’s hard to write two pieces in one world for different audiences!! How much do I worldbuild if Bluer Skies contains all of my worldbuilding but is also miles away from being finished!! Does it even matter if I don’t anticipate that much audience overlap!! Or maybe I should anticipate audience overlap and I shouldn’t spoil things too much? Decisions decisions. It is fun for my POV characters to learn the same things in different ways though. This is definitely the Less Crucial piece to read though.

- Because of The Way Things Are For Hal (he got born into Hell for Avians ((Project Angel)) and as such didn’t get a real name, watched his best friend get nearly killed by and escape from Satan for Avian ((Morningstar)) and had no idea what happened to him afterwards, and then lived as Morningstar’s replacement pet for the next ten years), he is decidedly written as according to these circumstances, which some will see as OOC. To that I say, this is an AU. There is not a Character to be In.

- My darling dearest Barry, on the other hand, got stuck as Protector of one of the last terrestrially migratory flocks, with his special super speed magic, and has to deal with the challenges of being practically in charge of keeping his flock on the move and safe from the many, many things that would do them harm. This is especially hard when the main anti-wild avian force is on the verge of war with the wild avians.

- Circumstances cause them to meet!! Wild!!

- Hal is a violet-green swallow. They’re incredibly aerial and acrobatic birds, which fits with his prowess in the air. Their wings are also green. I considered making him a green heron, since his power set kinda matched with heron’s tool usage, but decided flying was more important to Hal’s character.

- Barry is an Allen’s Hummingbird. I was always going to make him a hummingbird, it was just fortuitous that I stumbled across one that is the Allen’s and is also reddish orange. I’m hilarious, I know. Hummingbird since, while they’re not the fastest in stoop or horizontal flight, they’ve got mad BPM and can be made Faster with Fast Magic.

- Wally’s a white throated needletail and Iris is a treeswift. Swifts, treeswifts, and hummingbirds are all in the same order, which I thought was appropriate, since none of them are directly related but they’re a family anyways. It’s not confirmed, but allegedly needletails have the fastest horizontal flight speed, so shoutout to Kid Flash for that one.

- On the other hand, swifts and swallows are not that related, but had a bit of a convergent evolution moment, and I Do Intend on using that to influence the dynamic between Wally and Hal.

- In case it wan’t clear, each day will be a chapter, so it’s so cool of you guys to pick prompts that work really well with the story I wanted to tell. Also shoutout to all of the DC vs Vampires quotes! Barry and Hal had like five pages together before The Inevitable, and they were five very gay pages.

- It was also very cool of DC to make Hal a pilot, which means that he fit into my preexisting au where pilots are avians when I got into DC after I got into Top Gun. He’s even got a call sign, which is extra convenient since avians born in Project Angel only get their canon call sign as a name since they’re seen as tools and less than human and all that.

- The thing is. Barry is a Fundamentally Nice person. That’s why Earth 2’s Johnny Quick is the furthest thing from a direct parallel you can get; Barry is not allowed to ever be evil. This is very good for Highball, who has never received a kindness ever.

- On the other hand, Nesting Instinct Highball is a survivor and trauma-hardened, which gives him the ability to be Not A Nice Person. Barry needs somebody like that to balance out his Niceness, lest he be overrun by the many strong personalities in his flock. Highball is also skilled and adaptable, and there’s something about a person who will do anything you say without complaint, probably.

- Anyways I have many more Thoughts but I don’t want to spoil any of the good bits. Hopefully I’ll finish it in time for the Week, and hopefully you’ll then read it. Maybe then I’ll even finish Bluer Skies so that everything in Nesting Instinct will get put into context. Wouldn’t that just be wild?

I couldn't decide which colour scheme I liked more so have both!

#Hal is either a helmsman or captain and Barry is the science/first officer #halbarry week #halbarry week 2023 #@chocolateteapots apologies if you're already halfway through yesterday's summary post I have another star trek one along with these #star trek au #hal jordan #barry allen

Halbarry Week x Big Bang

“I know that if something bad happened to me, you’d be the first one on my side.”

Some unused thumbnails for the upcoming Big Bang collaboration with MafiaPirateShinigamiOtaku! Check back September 10th for the story and illustration!

“I…” He scuffs his shoe against the squeaky marble floor, “don’t remember?” He smiles sheepishly. It looks odd. “What,” he starts slowly, “do you mean you don’t remember?” “Exactly that, I have no clue what happened the past week.” “Two weeks.” It’s just for a split second. Barry’s gaze shiftes slightly, intense and primal. Hal could almost convince himself that it was nothing, if it wasn’t for the heat of fear still burning his skin.

A The Summer Hikaru Died au. Barry goes missing for two weeks. Hal seems to be the only one to realize something else has returned.

Update: See the final image and the posted story!
