[luuxxart]

had an epiphany about how estranged from canon and very unintelligible my hc for Akira’s background is

#persona 5 #shuake #akeshu #akira kurusu #goro akechi #like. I realize canonically he’s said to be from the country but shhhhhh #let me have my little mamma mia bs #fic is currently 35k…. side fic (yes) is 19k. Wii ball #the Sophia he’s referring to is the one from SMTV #not strikers. but #that’s not to say. the strikers one……. wasn’t named after the SMT V one…… 👀

thinking about LeoJi 💛💜

#peas n guac #so apparently it’s NOT canon that Leo’s Mexican and NATIVE American #just Mexican american #but he’s part NA to me inside the caverns of my brain #native on his dads side Mexican on his moms #but I have this entire background for him that I’ve just made up in my head and I realized that it wasn’t canon just recently #it’s real to me though 🥺 #yuri on ice #yoi #guang hong ji #leo de la iglesia #lion of the church my bb #where’s my content of ji coming to America and meeting Leo’s big ole family #fanart #id in alt text #I feel like ji has a more quiet and distant small family #so I want him to come to America to hang out with Leo and be adopted by his entire family #ok I’ll stop rambling in the tags now

Hi! What do you think of an au where Claire never came back home after the events of First Frost, so everyone thinks she was kidnapped or ran away, maybe Blinky and AAARRRGGHH found her, so she ends up doing her Trollhunter duties alone, basically living in Trollmarket, but the other kids still get involved in some way?

Oh Anon we are so on the same wavelength, because First Frost was originally supposed to be a lot shorter, with this premise, when I started out.

So I’d say she officially ‘disappears’ in eighth grade, giving the kids time to bond and form a kind of coherent group, so when she does actually disappear it leaves a bigger impact than just right off the bat after Jim and Toby met her.

By the beginning of Sophomore year she’s still missing, and it’s assumed she’s either a runway or kidnapped but there’s not much evidence to back that, her parents are left in a state of disarray, Enrique is still born but he’s yet to meet his older sister.

Around Halloween Mary throws out the idea of heading to a party, it doesn’t end the way they hope.

They’re targeted by Bular, who believes the amulet has chosen a human due to the human stature this new Trollhunter has, he’s wrong of course but by the time the kids are cornered the real Trollhunter shows up, it’s impossible to tell who it actually is due to their helmet, which covers their face, but the five escape Bular’s ire.

Then Blinky and Aaarrrgghh show up after the attack, the Trollhunter tries to brush off the idea but the kids are taken down to Trollmarket for their protection until sunrise and basically given a rundown of why they were targeted.

Claire hasn’t actually told Blinky and Aaarrrgghh the full truth about her situation, as in she didn’t explicitly admit she ran away from home. Still she’s been living with them in Trollmarket.

The more Jim and co learn about what’s been going on under the surface of their town the more they begin to think that maybe Claire was attacked by Bular, or taken by the Janus Order. Blinky tries to dissuade them of the fact, because one, he knows where their friend is, and two, he doesn’t want them recklessly endangering themselves and gaining Bular’s ire again.

Claire won’t actually interact with her friends, due to the immense guilt she feels, and she’d left to keep the people she cared about out of Trollhunting specifically, now she’s still managed to involve them.

They’re rarely allowed into Trollmarket though, as Vendel disapproves immensely of their presence, it takes time but he eventually warms up and allows sparing visits so they can get more information from Blinky and Aaarrrgghh. Claire purposefully avoids the library at those times.

Barbara is the first parent to find out, after the four are given a Gaggletack for the surface, tipped with the threat of Changelings.

Strickler has an awkward dinner interruption after Jim manages to hit his shoulder to say the least and ends up fleeing, unable to face Jim and Barbara, the bridge is still being constructed in the museum.

Soon after Mary’s moms, Darci’s dad and Nana are brought into the situation, they hesitate the tell Nuñezs their daughter may have been an unfortunate victim to the creatures underneath their town. They’ve already been grieving their daughter for almost three years..is false hope really necessary?

By the Battle of the bridge the kids aren’t present for the fight, only Draal, Blinky, Aaarrrgghh and Claire are there, she frimly denies involving her friends in the fight.

Bular is killed by her alone, his mangled stone corpse left in the canal as a warning for any of the Janus Order.

Bular is dead, the threat is gone, she should go home-she can return to the surface.

But she doesn’t. She can’t.

The kids learn about the caves where Bular had kept the people he’d bitten and cursed. Barbara and Jim look into ways of contacting Strickler ,who disappeared after the Battle, surely he’d know if Bular had specifically targeted people.

Around this time Darci comes into an unfortunate accident with a gang of goblins, the Trollhunter intervenes thankfully but doesn’t get away unscathed.

Darci tries to help them but they pull away, grumbling they don’t need help.

It becomes an unfortunate occurrence, seeing the Trollhunter take hit after hit in battle, the kids try to assist but they’re quickly rebuffed. Each and every time, they’re also brushed with a weird sense of Deja vu.

The way the Trollhunter moves, talks, it’s so achingly familiar.

It goes on like that for weeks.

Until they find them curled in an alleyway at night. Their armor is off, and their side bleeds a sickly dark purple.

Darci is taken aback by how young they look. Trolls age differently of course but the ‘mighty’ Trollhunter can’t be anything more than a teenager in troll standards.

Their offer to help is finally accepted just this once, if only to keep her from bleeding out. But the pattern repeats itself and they find the Trollhunter willingly coming to them for help when they can’t take care of their injuries alone.

Claire knows she shouldn’t keep doing this, being in the armor is what keeps her a troll during the warm months, if she’s out of it too long she could start to change back, but she desperately wants to see her friends, see how much they’ve changed, and their kindness is something she’s absolutely taking for granted.

Angor Rot’s appearance makes things turn for the worse, he’s relentless, desperate for his promised soul in return for taking out the Trollhunter, Nomura isn’t senseless, she’ll do just that once he’s brought her proof. What better proof than the Trollhunters stone corpse?

The begrudging relationship the kids have built with the Trollhunter, who still hesitates to let them enter the fray, comes to a head when Angor’s latest attempt nearly succeeds.

Dawn is minutes away and Angor sends Claire rolling toward the edge of the incline, cutting her off, unable to reach any sort shadow or protection from the rising sun.

Angor knows, he has too, that’s why he’s watching smugly from the shade as her friends scream at her to move.

They can’t reach her fast enough, and in a desperate move the Trollhunter tears off their amulet, instead of a troll as the armor dissipates it’s a human, a girl, with long overgrown brown hair, edges faintly tinged blue, most of the dye faded out.

Then she looks up..

Jim isn’t sure he’s breathing, heart thudding in his chest, Mary and Darci have frozen beside him.

“Claire?”

#I may still turn it into a fic! #just a big consequences of our actions type beat #six chapters at the max lol #way back when I started first frost it would have taken more of this direction #but Claire wasn’t actually going to be the Trollhunter #then I realized I wanted to make it a bit longer and go through a lot of canon #trollhunters #tales of arcadia #toa #jim lake jr #claire nuñez #toby domzalski #darci scott #Mary wang #angor rot #asks #au #first frost

Literally why are all Irene Adler posts on tumblr some shit like “Irene Norton could never heterosexually fuck Sherlock Holmes… because she’s heterosexually married to Mr. Norton before the eyes of God and the Church! hashtag love wins! what a lucky man! Now watch me project an entire personality onto this male character that shows up for a single scene! Never ever forget she takes his name after marriage like the good devoted wife she is! Respect!” Like helloooooo. Can anybody hear me.

#irene adler #sherlock holmes #acd canon #how can yall say that shit… I KNOW that she gets heterosexually married I KNOW THAT. I just wish she fucking didn’t because it’s boring!!! #appropriate for the time but boring as hell!!! I don’t give a fuck about what some old man says about the women he’s made up for a story #can you lot just put on your fucking thinking hats for a second and realize that you’re doing exactly what Those Evil Heterosexual Adapts d #which is DEFINING IRENE THROUGH THE MAN SHES CURRENTLY FUCKING? #only the X-men comics get a pass because they’re like . no actually that wasn’t a man she was marrying it was a lesbian in disguise RESPECT

Broke: The handlers name is Reginald Crane

Woke: The Handlers name is Reginald Mason Crane

Bespoke: The handler is one of those Englishmen with like 10 names so every name he has used in fanfic is canon

#after the name reveal I felt irrationally betrayed about it #rationally I knew that mason probably wasn’t going to be his name since that’s the name of his va #but it should still be a canon name to me because it is said when we reverse his identification from the end of ieytd2 #ieytd #ieytd3 #ieytd3 spoilers #idk when I started writing my fic I was a little gremlin who wanted to get all of the details correct #I realize that my fic has…outgrown canon to become my own version of that world #but I can still make my fic canon compliant to ieytd3 by the end #the name thing was the only thing that might be tough #but Roxana can call him Reginald while Phoenix calls him Mason and it doesn’t detract any meaning from their father/child relationship #doesn’t make them any less close if he wants Phoenix to call him by his middle name #sorry for the rant un the tags #just needed to think through some stuff #the handler

Yayyyyy Mitori my beloved!! Also Takane’s theme has been the sleeper hit of Unconnected Marketeers for me. And also Nitori’s there. Due to there being Three of Them and just personal motivation weirdness this took like a whole week and I didn’t have the energy to do much personal interpretation of their outfits & hair like ppl often do when drawing Touhou characters; followed the reference too closely on that as usual. But fun fact about turtles! I had trouble finding much documentation on this, but [some?] turtles have a dark line across their eyes that helps them see better horizontally and their eyes turn so that the line is always parallel to the horizon

#art #digital #touhou #takane yamashiro #mitori kawashiro #nitori kawashiro #I also learned new facts about kappa but you’ll have to look those up yourself #not discussing shirikodama here lol #kinda funny drawing all three of them together cause of the key thing #also Takane wasn’t supposed to look that much like Magolor but I think it’s mostly the mouth shape which I gave to all of em bcuz beak #ALSO I decided to give them webbed fingers and then immediately afterwards realized that Takane’s sprite has her holding cards aaaaall the #way down between her fingers which like #obviously I don’t care too much abt being bound by their canon designs but just #the specificity and immediacy of the contradiction was SO funny #I might draw Mitori again and try to tweak her outfit a bit more; we’ll see #she is so cool to me #Sorry I don’t have more to say about Nitori!! she’s neat and all but you can probably tell I’m very influenced by their music

I be semi back into mega man and I’ve been thinking about why-despite it objectively being more known-it was harder to get people into compared to getter and I think it’s chalked up to the gameplay comes first over any story stuff. MM lore is still insane and a funny rabbit hole to fall into but its not what people think about when they think about this franchise past a basic plot summary, they think about a grueling platformer with freedom to do the stages in any order. But playing all these games, especially if platformers aren’t you thing, doesn’t give you all the lore context given this was a series made in the late 80s and continued up to the 2010s, so pieces of lore were kept to manuals or sometimes even interviews. Sure, a lot of people are use to outside sources for lore, but given how many games there are even if you could pretty much take away the first series out of it to make it seem clearer, you still have to deal with the fact the lord didn’t really pick up until the third platformer because X didn’t know if it wanted to be episodic like classic or actually be more serious- which among other reasons lead it to probably be the messiest series in terms of lore. And then there’s the fact you can’t even recommend someone to read a manga or watch a anime for lore retellings because all of the mangas basically are their own takes of games and anime? Lol despite some games having animated cutscenes the ones who got the anime privilege was the RPG games which everyone in the lore circles always ignore because it’s a separate timeline.

Basically: Mega Man really be “gameplay first, lore bits second” and given I meet a lot of people who don’t play many platformers/are good at them, + the factor there's multiple fucking series which makes it slightly confusing or overwhelming to a outsider, yeah me recommending niche mecha show that’s somewhat convoluted tends to be the better option.

#meg text #mega man #rockman #mm is honestly more of a interest I keep to myself even if I should mention it more #because I don’t want people to think I’m just getter #but it’s kinda hard when- it’s like this lol #it’s not as messy as KH and FNAF in terms of lore but it’s harder to beat those #but it’s main issue is nothing smoothly connects even if within a series context it’s fine to be stand alone #it’s just they never played it or when they did something had to go wrong #looking at you Capcom when you decided to continue mmx after x5 #when the plan was to end it there and tie to zero but this threw a hole into everything #though also recalling how legends wasn’t supposed to be canon but made canon bc of the inti games is funny #we never see the gap bridged and there’s some confusing details between them so you could technically just ignore legends #but then you realize in ZX “oh wait humans are becoming robotic and everyone in legends is human-robot hybrids” #it worked out in their favor compared to other things even if it’s sad will never see it tie perfectly #also on the end subject with the side material the lore fandom needs to stop ignoring BN/SF #it’s especially saddening how much Starforce gets flanked for “not tieing to BN well” when IT HAS A FUCKED UP TIE IN THE FIRST GAME #the scene late game where all the PETs are in a dumpster- that saids so much #but also starforce has interesting lore in itself even if it’s not connected to the main series and vastly different #aliens and em waves are cool you guys just SUCK #I was also gonna add a rant about Capcom and how they did too many series here but this is too many tags

Hey! I didn’t do half-bad tonight! Managed to beat all of World Star in SM3DW in one sitting. I lost a collective 50+ lives, so I wouldn’t consider myself any better than I was before, but I did it!! And collected at least two of the three stars on each course!!

Ah, the curse of hyperfixating over a video game series which I’m no good at…

#in my defense most of those were at the end of Star-9 #I didn’t realize you could charge the canon up to shoot further #I thought you had to stand at the very edge of the switch platforms and hope for precision aim and good timing #so I fell to my death many times more than I care to admit before realizing it wasn’t necessary 😅 #peaches screams into the void

I do not use canon a day in my life 🩷) #techno probably didn’t even remember how jack’s face twisted in pain before his expression dropped in realization #he had an opponent who wasn’t his target and they were currently weighing down his sword by having it through their stomach #techno had paused and grabbed Jack’s shoulders. it was more of a push than setting him down on the newly unearthed cobblestone #(jack remembered how hot it was. the ground had already felt like a memory of the explosion) #that was all that happened. the sword was swiftly pulled out. the light left Jack’s eyes. techno continued on his way #but Jack always remembers the hands bringing his pale body to the ground #he never knew that the hand over his heart was an accidental placement while the sword was removed #eventually he doesn’t know where the warmth came from. he just knows there was warmth in that moment #when he dies clinging to netherrack that singes his hands and he feels seconds away from melting #the feeling of the burns against his skin on november 16th fade away #it’s only warmth. and when he gets desperate to get rid of everything in manifold land #and the flames dance too close to his arms. he feels warm. and he’ll never escape that feeling #c!jack manifold #maniposting

Wait

did I rlly just read a pro t*mlin post that said what I think it just said

It’s not just the fact it’s pro t*mlin. If it was I wouldn’t gaf to post about it. It’s entirely the fact that the points/justifications they are coming up with are alarming and EGREGIOUSLY deluded

#they said no one at the night court would give a shit if Rhys abused feyre 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 #I’m dying #bc one #that is just so not true 💀 #and two #he didn’t abuse feyre so why even say that #like why would sjm have that as canon #yeah cause sjm totally thought “Ah yes if Rhys abused Feyre the night court would in fact let it happen” #this has to be one of those times I don’t realize it’s satire #cause what I read was so.. what #I just went back and checked to make sure I wasn’t tweaking and oh my god it is not satire #I’m flabbergasted I rlly am😭 #feyre was dying from not taking care of herself and t*mlin didn’t even notice #under the mountain t*mlin made out with feyre instead of finding her a way out #he was too busy thinking he knew what was best for her that he doesn’t even know what is going on with her #if t*mlin’s love for feyre was healthy then he would’ve noticed #he clearly thinks of her as something to own #not someone to look after #not a usual post but god #if you’re going to be appallingly controversial at least make ONE significant point #and probably don’t defend an abuser?? #like I wish I could message that person to genuinely ask if they’re okay #but I don’t want to lmfao and obvi that wouldn’t end well #OH MY GOD I SAW ANOTHER ONE AND ITS WORSE #WHO IS LETTING THE CHILDREN ON HERE #I SWEAR TO GOD I JUST READ SOMEONE SAY SJM IS MAKING YOUNG GIRLS THINK ITS OKAY TO LEAVE A MAN WHO LOCKS YOU UP TO PROTECT YOU #THEY THINK THATS A BAD THING #THEY BELIEVE THAT LEAVING SOMEONE THAT HAS YOU LOCKED!!!UP!!!! IS WRONG????
