[theicewingbeannamedowlet]

Character bases created by AprilSilverWolf! (hopefully i got the right name, theyre on DeviantArt) au was renamed to COT for children fitting better than dragonets for trickery

Lore behind the AU there was another group besides the Talons of peace, this one was named 'Wings for the future', suspected to have lasted much longer than Talons of peace jokers, he great leader Clear'vision collected many different dragons together, leading them all with her mysterious way of sharing her power of future and letting others see it through her. Her rule is a iron talons with the help of an animus assistant, no one knows who this dragon is as they keep shapeshifting forms. When Morrowseer created the fake prophecy a new one was created, leading the Talons of peace to collect the eggs for a scheme for Princess Blister, Clear'vision found this quite inconvenient and had her followers gather together the dragonets of trickery in their eggs, having the animus dragon grant each dragonet something special, but to everyones suprise, two twin eggs were locked in with the three other eggs. the dragonets from oldest to youngest Mudpile: Mudwing and the bigwings of the group, he is lava proof and he is able to withstand even the ice kingdom's cold temperature. He is the leader of the group and every member respects his decisions Coconut: A Leafwing and Sandwing hybrid of the COT, his father gave his egg to protect him, he had been given the gift of the greatest leafspeak that can spread through a continent and the breath of fire, he makes sure everyone wears their necklaces that hide their true identities. Nebula: A Nightwing and Songwing(fantribe) hybrid, a great visioneer and mind reader with the personality of a anxious gifted child. She is the daughter of Clear'vision and doesnt have trouble showing this off to the rest of the 'Wing for the future' members, suprisingly she doesnt do this to her chosen family Wildfire: Firescale Skywing with the temperment of a forestfire, she is happy to battle but prefers to keep her 'false identity' necklace because it allows her to not be a firescale for a while and hug her chosen family. Flow: An animus Seawing with the caring personality, he has a weak power of hydrokinesis, as well as having a twin sister he is very protective of, he has made many spells to keep his chosen family safe and untouched on the secret island they life on in the sea kingdom. He as well is missing a leg (definitely didnt forget to fix it in the drawing)

funky lizards

Dragonets of Destiny AU! funky little dragons

more info under the cut

These are their colors ik they're a lil different but canon dod's colors just did not work okay ill say it theyre a bad color combo.

As for the AU I don't have a concrete story and plot yet or ever but it was a fun thought experiment.

"What if the DOD weren't the prophecy dragonets"

Instead of being destined to stop the war they instead were five random dragons affected by war. They want to stop it not bc of an all nebulous prophecy but bc they want to, driven by desperation and hope. Maybe they'll end the war somehow or maybe they won't. Oh and the fake dod are the actual prophecy dragonets in au.

I've always felt like the arc 1 had povs that were privileged i guess? theyre a bunch of sheltered traumatized kids and they're the ones dictating how war ends bc theyre the chosen ones. I also just wanna explore different aspects of war with this au bc this arc just did not make me feel anything when it comes to it.

Honestly just a funky thing that's been stewing in my brain don't take it seriously

Some Design notes

Clay is inspired by a highland cow,,,moss bangs also made him more red

Tsunami's inspo is a lionfish very venomous n spiky, violet bc nami is an indigo kinnie

Sunny has no inspo just made her cute, no infantilization in the tags pls!

Same w/ Starflight no inspo just vibes, made him blue bc it looks good with green i dont subscribe to gray starf

Glory's inspo is vaguely a morning glory, didn't like her orange so made her pink

Yeah that's abt it mb suggest stuff that i can do with this au or something. Thanks for readin

It’s the next big gaming event. The screen cuts to black, and Yoko Taro walks onto the stage. or into frame. whatever.

There is no Drakengard 1 port announcement. There is no Drakengard 3 remaster announcement. And shockingly, there is no announcement for a 50th Automata collab.

Yoko Taro clears his throat and announces calmly, “Angelegna is now in development.” He walks off the stage, or out of frame. Fade to black once again. Thirty nine dead, sixty eight injured.

Yo what if Burn, instead of killing the Skywing dod, took the dragonet and raised them?

This has been circulating in the mushy matter of my brain for a while so I went ahead and drew it out

May or may not have been reliving my childhood and watching DOD ( Daughter of discord ) and reading SILOD ( Son in law of Discord ).

DOD by: Disneyfanatic23

Cotton candy: Cotton Candy or C.C is the oldest of the two siblings and the most chaotic. Taking more after her mother’s side, she’s very bubbly and quite lively to be around. She loves making sweet treats for others and loves making others smile!

Minti’Chip: Minti is the youngest of the two and he a more reserved than his older sister. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have ambitions. He takes after his father’s side more and has more changeling powers than he does chaotic. He trains with his father to control his transformation and trains with his aunt Trix, in secret to get stronger.

[crystallizedday]

Well

This idea has been in the works for long enough, so I think it’s about time I finally present it.

Fellas

The hyperfixation was too strong for me, and I decided to make something wonderful with it.

I present to all of you nutcases

SAMURAI JACK: DUO OF DOOM

An AU concept I’ve been refining for the past month or so that follows Demongo and Scaramouche as the main characters.

It takes place roughly a few decades after “Jack and the Baby,” but instead of following the timeline set up by season 5, I wanted to take the universe in a bit of a different direction

The AU is organized into 2 seasons, each having 13 episodes, JUST like the original show.

While not all 26 episodes have been fully fleshed out just yet, most of the crucial ones HAVE been, so I wish to share with you all what I have so far…

Season 1:

This season puts us in the shoes of Scaramouche, a full-time assassin looking to make it big.

While the job isn’t EXACTLY something he was passionate about, it pays the bills, so he decided not to be too choosy. He at least enjoys the fame that comes with it, even if his mechanical heart is still rooted in music.

However, he isn’t the only one looking to make it big in the assassination business.

There seems to be an entire group of assassins, a syndicate, who aren’t too happy about an “outsider” trudging through their terf, and they aim to put a stop to it.

While Scaramouche feels he is more than capable of handling these wannabes, one of his squabbles with them led to him stumbling upon a creature that proved to be quite a nuisance, a soul-eater who keeps swooping in and stealing his kills.

Even after the initial battle, this entity, Demongo, chooses to follow Scaramouche in his endeavors, certain that such a clumsy fool would lead the demon to more powerful warriors for him to imprison.

Episode 1 — After being cornered and losing the upper hand, Scaramouche is “saved” from being turned into scrap by Demongo, who steals the soul of the worn-out assassin to add to his ever-growing army.

Episode 2 — I don’t have anything specific planned for this episode outside of the two bickering for the majority of it and only coming to an agreement at the end of it: Demongo can take the souls of their bounties, and Scara will take the credit so he can get the money from it. Demmy doesn’t care about money anyway, so he’s fine with this outcome.

Episode 3 — While I don’t have the details down just yet, I have a few loose ideas for it. By now, Scara only has a boring-ass flute, a boring-ass scimitar, and a boring-ass knife, so Demmy decides to lead Scara to a place where he could get that pathetic little weapon of his upgraded. I can see Demmy picking a fight when he shouldn’t have, almost getting his ass beat when Scara saves him (the guy helps rank in the money, so why let him get squashed?).

By the end of the episode, Scara is worn the fuck out, and immediately assumes his soul was gonna get snatched by Demmy cause of it… but it doesn’t happen. Instead, Demmy just tells him to suck it up so they could get a move on. Demongo probably knew he could’ve easily taken Scara’s soul by now, but chose not to. Interesting…

Episode 4 — I don’t have anything for this episode yet.

Episode 5 — Ezekiel and Josephine Clench are the main antagonists of this episode, wanting to snatch a bounty from Scara and Demmy (the bounty probably being some poor passenger on a train, just so the setting can match the one the divorced couple originally appeared in). The only issue is Ezekiel and Josephine keep trying to betray the other to claim the bounty, which lead to both of their inevitable defeat. Even if they also have their disagreements, Scara and Demmy can at least recognize that working together certainly gave the two the upper hand, and squabbling like the Clenches was PROBABLY gonna get them killed as well. This is the point where the two start becoming decent friends.

Episode 6 — We get to see where exactly Scara has been crashing this whole time at the start of the episode, which is… a weirdly isolated lil home, something that certainly surprised Demongo, who assumed the big guy would be living a more social, lavish personal life. Regardless, since Demongo was entrusted to stay here to begin with, he decides to return the favor and try enchanting Scara’s scimitar to be a little more useful in battle, fucking up the entire thing thanks to Scaramouche running his mouth and scatting in the middle of all of it. The scimitar now only responds to his scatting SPECIFICALLY, which Scara doesn’t seem to mind, even if Demmy certainly does. Ah, and this is also the episode featuring two of my ocs, Spunk & Clunk, who are mainly there to encourage the two knuckleheads to try combining their fighting styles to get the upper hand & catch their opponents off guard.

Episode 7 — This is a filler episode where Scara decides to take Demongo with him to spend some extra cash they snagged. This is where Demongo has his first outfit change (since Scaramouche was not letting this fucker walk another step wearing nothing but a vampire cape). This is where Demongo gets acquainted with modern society, since bro knows jack-shit about it thanks to “growing up” in the Pit of Hate. Needless to say, bro quickly finds out he has a sweet tooth.

Episode 8 — The two are looking to find a way to enchant Scara’s prized flute as well so it can be used in battle. In trying to find the right place to get it enchanted (since Demmy doesn’t trust himself to not fuck shit up again after last time), they find themselves being stalked by someone hired by the syndicate to get rid of them. I like to think this mysterious person is Mira, the Princess looking to free her people. Perhaps she was promised a way to help her people by the head-honcho of the syndicate. Really, I just wanna use as many og characters as I can and make sure they’re used in meaningful ways... oh and the flute does get enchanted at the end. Forgot to mention that.

Episode 9 — This is another filler episode, cause I like the idea of Scara teaching Demmy how to properly dance and I wanna see that shit happen. I’m sure Demmy will find a way to make use of that talent in battle. At this point, the two have become VERY close, and Demmy has let himself loosen up quite a bit. I have nothing else figured out about this episode.

Episode 10 — This is a funny fuckin idea. Thanks to alcohol being flammable, I can absolutely see Demongo being a lightweight, so I’m thinking Scara makes the terrible mistake of taking Demmy to a tavern (probably the same tavern Da Samurai was seen in all those years ago). Thanks to his intoxication, Demmy gets the two of them in a shit-ton of trouble... There’s definitely a bar fight scene here, cause I think they’re funny.

I AM considering throwing a lil curveball in here at some point. Y’all familiar with the idea of being intoxicated makes ya more susceptible to talking about things and thoughts that you’d normally keep under wraps? I’m thinking about applying that here, where at the end of the episode, Demmy (still very much intoxicated) out of nowhere asks Scara why the big guy is being so damn nice to him. He asks this not just because the two were not on the best of terms just a few months ago, but also because he is under the mindset that he needs to repay that kindness, a mindset that came about due to working under Aku (even if Aku’s “kindness” more so comes in the form of being allowed to live or be apart of his higher ranks and shit). He starts rambling about how he feels he can never fully repay that kindness and is stressed the fuck out about it. Of course, Scara reassures him that he doesn’t need to repay shit, and he chooses to be nice to him cause he likes hanging out with the lil guy. Saying this confuses Demmy is an understatement, but Scara tells em that they’ll properly talk about it once bro is actually sober. The episode ends with Scara taking him back home (probably carrying him cause I like being self indulgent like that IWNWKWMWOSKSOS).

Episode 11 — The episode starts out with Demongo attempting to play Scaramouche’s flute, and failing miserably. Since Demmy does not have ANY experience with modern media, Scara decided it would be a funny idea to take the lil shit to go see a movie. Unfortunately, Demmy doesn’t understand when to keep his mouth shut and ends up getting the both of them kicked out afterwards. This doesn’t bother the lil shit though as he starts laying out how he would’ve written such a thing, seeing the original piece of work as a “flawed, uninspired mess” and such. However, he accidentally lets a few things slip, such as his questionable stance on authority and his fear of failure. Before Scara can ask about any of this, the two of them realize that Demmy no longer had Scara’s flute, losing it at some point. Demmy, in an extremely vulnerable state, zips off in a panic, but is quickly found again by Scara, who talks with him about what’s going on.

This is where the real meat of Demmy’s character gets revealed (even if hints of it have certainly popped up here and there in the past). He reveals how he was sent back to the Pit of Hate to be punished after failing to kill Samurai Jack. He was only able to leave once he regained the strength to bust out of there himself, and fears what his ex-master would think if he ever found out about this… which is something that Scara isn’t sure how to feel about, especially since he’s been wanting to climb the ranks to get Aku’s attention ever since he became an assassin.

Demmy feared being punished for slipping up yet again, letting down another individual he admittedly looked up to. TLDR, bro is NOT doing okay, and Scara decides to comfort the lil guy. Once Demmy is able to pick himself back up, the two try to head back to the theater when another character stops them. This fella (definitely an oc I need to design) appears to be a fellow music-lover, and (not recognizing who these two were) decided to return the flute to its rightful owner. The fella decides to let the two know about this one village where hundreds of people gather to party and dance and shit, thinking the two would be interested, which leads us to…

Episode 12 — The rave episode. This is where shit gets FUNKY… and extremely self-indulgent.

Donning some flashier outfits, Scara and Demmy decide to head to this “rave” to see what it’s all about, just cause. However, throughout most of the episode, Demmy struggles to tell Scara something and does not know how to approach him about it.

The details here get a lil fuzzy since I haven’t really mapped out how the middle section of the episode goes, but eventually, a few assassins from the syndicate track the two down and attempt to be rid of them once and for all, but with all the bright lights and dancers about, it makes things more difficult than they wanted it to be.

Eventually, the assassins get their chance to attack, but the duo handle the situation with ✨style✨, and it’s only NOW when Demongo finally musters up the courage to confess to Scara (via gestures, since Demmy couldn’t find the words for it and ultimately just said “fuck it”). Scara reciprocates the gesture, but advised that the two of them take care of the dudes trying to kill them first before talking about the subject any further, which Demmy agreed on.

Once that’s all said and done, the episode ends with the two heading home, taking a moment to talk about what they are now and where do they go from here.

I don’t care how self-indulgent this is, but RIGHT as the episode’s about to conclude, I can see the two sharing their first kiss!

Look

I’m shipping trash.

This was inevitable WJJWJWSNWIKSOSMS

Episode 13 — I WISH I had a fully fleshed out version of this episode prepared, but at the moment, all I know for certain is that this is where the two finally decide to face off against the heart of the syndicate and get these guys off their back once and for all, thus allowing them to take the title of the world’s greatest assassins… by technicality.

Season 2:

A few months have passed since the last episode as the two start to adjust to their new life as a couple.

The start of this season focuses on the two retrieving the old souls Demongo had lost during his first battle with Samurai Jack, the two eventually deciding to seek out the samurai so they can defeat him once and for all.

But things do not go as planned, especially since Demongo is still hesitant about immediately going back to serving his old master.

Episode 14 — The Titan Demongo once controlled has been running amok in a populated area, and while Scara & Demmy initially did not care to take care of it (assuming Jack would come in to save the day), when the beast kept raging on with no one else stepping up to the challenge, the two decide to take care of this beast before it causes any more problems. Plus, Demmy could really use the extra strength provided by such a beast. After all, in this universe, Demmy can harness the strength and abilities of the souls he collects, a power that will come in handy down the road…

Curious as to why Jack did not arrive to the scene, the two decide to make it their mission to find Samurai Jack for themselves, actively seeking out people who might know a thing or two and interrogating them on the subject.

Episode 15 — The duo seek out the four distinct souls that Demongo used to fight Samurai Jack all those years ago: the knight, the white tiger, the four-armed warrior, and the black samurai. None of them no longer being in their prime certainly made defeating them rather easy, even if each of them had their own special… quirks that delayed the inevitable…

Like the knight guy. I wanna give him Don Quixote vibes.

Episode 16 — I have nothing planned for this episode at the moment.

Episode 17 — I only have the main idea for this episode thought out, which is how the two come across the three singing sirens that once hypnotized Jack long ago. However, their singing does not work.

Why?

Because this version of Demongo is absolutely gay, and Scaramouche (despite being pan) is far too prideful in his own singing to fall for somebody else’s.

And this pisses the sirens OFF.

Episode 18 — I’m not sure EXACTLY how I want this episode to go, but all I know is that THIS is where the two find the Scotsman along with his… INCREDIBLY large family, and decide to fight him to interrogate him on the whereabouts of Jack.

I want the Scotsman to survive this fight, so I’m thinking what happens is his daughters (who are like… still VERY young at this point) enter the fight as well to protect their father against his own wishes (and perhaps the others in his clan also chime in), forcing Scara and Demongo to retreat… but not without at least a LITTLE bit of vital info as to where Jack could be (even if I’m unsure what it would be just yet).

Episode 19 — This episode is a bit of a parody of the “Jack and the Baby” episode. The duo stumble across a random-ass baby and, despite Demongo being so incredibly disgusted by it, Scara does not have the heart to abandon the poor thing, so they keep the lil thing until they can find someone else who will take care of it for them.

Needless to say, neither of these nutcases should be fathers.

Episode 20 — This is where shit hits the fan.

The two find Samurai Jack, but he’s barely recognizable. Age has certainly taken a toll on his physical appearance, and he has dressed himself in armor that made it almost impossible to tell it was him.

Before the three fight, Demongo notices how “the fire in his soul had dwindled” since the last time the demon has faced off against him. This made Scaramouche realize that Jack’s sword was nowhere to be seen, and while he and Demongo at first suspected he was simply hiding the sword, they eventually put two and two together to figure out Jack no longer had the sword. However, even though Scara wanted the details on what exactly happened (so he can make fun of Jack for it), Jack attacks, starting the fight.

At some point during the battle, Scara gets badly wounded, and Demongo stops fighting to try and patch him up the best he can. This surprises Jack, not knowing a demon like Demongo could express such concern for another living being like this. Of course, Demmy is incredibly offended by this assumption.

However, Jack then proposes something. He tells the two how they may put themselves in danger by taking him out and submitting to Aku. Scara brushes it off at first, but Demongo…

Knowing what would happen if either of them ever failed Aku again…

Demongo hears Jack out, fearing what Aku would do to Scaramouche in a worse case scenario.

Jack offers the two the chance to take his side, to stop Aku once and for all.

While Jack does not have his sword (as it got destroyed at some point, much like in the comic), he has been searching for decades for a way to get it back, and is confident Demongo could help in some way.

Scara refuses at first, finding disgust in the idea of working with a guy that wants to erase centuries-worth of history and everyone in it just to save whatever the past was like for him.

But Demmy quietly proposes to Scara that they simply get rid of Aku first, then Jack. Scara is still confused as to why he of all people would want to side with Jack, and while Demongo despises the idea as well… he simply cannot trust his old master to not harm Scaramouche in the future.

The two decide to take Jack’s deal, even if they’re not entirely happy about it.

Episode 21 — The daughters of Aku make an appearance in this episode, but instead of being nine twins, almost all of them are from different mothers, all training under the head cultist to become stronger. Only two of them are twins that came from the head cultist: Ashi and Aki. They are the youngest of the nine, and by that I mean they are actually just children that are being indoctrinated to be merciless warriors. The other sisters are much older and have heavily-varying body types to make them a little more distinct from one another, and in accordance to their signature weapons. The weapons themselves are actually why Ashi and Aki are twins, since they wield the same weapon in canon. None of them have the essence of Aku in them because that whole plot point is just plain silly to me and causes WAY too many plot holes for my liking.

Meanwhile, Jack has recruited the Scotsman to help the gang out, and the big guy is NOT happy to be working with the two assassins that tried to kill him… ESPECIALLY Demongo.

I’ve been looking into the topic of the fae recently, and I thought it would be a funny nod to its lore for the Scotsman to genuinely think Demongo was part of the fae and insult him as such, which Demmy take GREAT offense to.

What none of them realize is that there was someone else following the group in secret, which turns out to be one of Scotsman’s daughters, Flora. Despite not even being a teenager yet, she still had the fiery fighting spirit of her father, and wished to be sure her father would be safe from the goons that attacked him before. Of course, she tries to ensure her father doesn’t suspect her presence, knowing he’d disapprove of her risking her own life for his sake.

However, the main gang’s squabbling is interrupted when the daughters and the head cultist arrive, the latter being there to personally ensure the death of the samurai.

While Jack handled the head cultist and the duo handled most of the daughters, the Scotsman found himself up against the two youngest twins, who he just did not have the heart to fight, even if the two were more than willing to tear him apart.

This is when Flora makes her presence known, defending her father from the twins, much to Scotsman’s disapproval. However, seeing someone their age fight for someone she deeply cares about, the twins start to reconsider their alliance. Scotsman actively telling his daughter how he refuses to let her fight and get herself hurt is the final nail in the coffin for the twins, since their own mother was not nearly as considerate. This is where they start asking questions, such as why would the Scotsman refuse to let his child fight in battle and such, all culminating to the big guy letting the fatherly instincts kick in and deciding he was going to be a MUCH better parent to these two than the head cultist ever was… much to Flora’s displeasure.

By the time this is said and done, the other three have taken care of the of the daughters and the head cultist, Jack wishing they could’ve found a way to get through to the other daughters as well… but Demongo immediately dismisses that thought.

The demon at LEAST tries to butter up the Scotsman and try to make a proper alliance, but the big guy still hates his guts, deciding to take Flora and his new daughters home… especially since the former was MOST DEFINITELY grounded for that little stunt she pulled.

I can see Demongo just shrugging it off, telling Jack “Well, you can’t say I didn’t TRY” cause I feel like he’d rub it in Jack’s face how him trying to be nice for once absolutely failed KWMWKWMWOSMWOD

Episode 22 — Scara, Demmy, and Jack come across an old house seemingly in the middle of nowhere, most of which being covered in a botanical mess of plants and vines and shit. They were going to ignore it when Scaramouche felt interested in investigating the residence, and so the three proceeded inside the home.

While they dig deeper and deeper into the home, Scara keeps getting brief and vague flashbacks to something, but he can’t quite remember the details too well. It’s only when he alone eventually discovers the miniature lab underneath the home when his memories become active again (ya know… like a computer booting up old videos and shit).

He starts remembering the first few moments of becoming active, with his creator welcoming him into a world. As present Scara starts going back to all the weird shit the three of them found, he starts to recover more and more memories, up until he recalls his creator’s last words to him. Present Scara stops to stare at a broken window, a piece of cloth still being stuck in one of the many shards. Judging from the barely visible insignia featured on it, it appeared to have once belonged to one of the members of the syndicate from season one.

His creator had a bounty on his head.

Demongo has been asking if Scara was alright throughout the entire ordeal, but ultimately, Scara simply tells him that this place just reminded him of some simple, distant memories. Demmy, while still suspecting something major was up and thus trying to be as supportive as he can, accepts the explanation for now.

Before they depart, Jack eventually chimes in to ask if Scara knew what this place was and who used to live here, the big guy eventually replying with “No.”

Episode 23 — The episode starts with Jack briefly parting ways with the duo so he can get some answers as to how he can either return or replace his sword. Since Demmy and Scara weren’t too fond of going on such a boring journey, they’re happy to stay behind. After Jack wanders about, coming across all sorts of oddities (like maybe stumbling across the Grim Reaper, the one from Billy and Mandy making a brief cameo thanks to how THAT universe is seemingly connected to all other CN properties). Eventually, he stumbles across the portal guardian, who has grown old and frail, but NOT from proper aging. He tells Jack about how “the timeline has shifted”, and how he can no longer see into the future like he used to. He is uncertain of what will happen next, and tells Jack to be careful, for nothing is certain anymore. Jack returns to Demmy and Scara, who SEEMINGLY have just been goofing off for the entire episode. Jack is absolutely traumatized by what he just witnessed… but decides it’s not worth talking to these two about it. Plus, the two don’t seem to care anyway.

Episode 24 — This episode starts with the EXACT same setup as episode 23, but instead of focusing on Jack’s perspective, it focuses on Scara and Demmy’s perspective. After the two have some silly banter, Demmy decides to talk about his “upbringing” and how he is quite literally the only one of his “species” due to how his creation required not only PLENTY of resources, but also VERY precise conditions. He throws some little nuggets of information in there, like how he is basically made entirely of carbon, more so than any human or similar organic creature. Scara is fascinated by this, but gets a curveball thrown at him when Demmy asks about HIS creation.

At first, Scara is VERY but hesitant, but eventually gives in and tells Demmy about his background, his creator, and even the last conversation the two of them had. Demmy is quite fascinated by the idea of Scara seeing the old man as “his dad”, especially since Demmy himself doesn’t have any equivalent to that. Can’t have a parental figure if you’re just a weird creature that just POPPED out of the ground one day. However, Scara reassured him that it probably was for the best the small demon never had a parental figure.

He tells the lil guy about how his old man wanted the big fella to live a good life, and he good to others in turn… and feels a bit gross knowing that he eventually turned to the same kind of job that got the poor old man killed, and he doesn’t know what to do about it. Even if Demmy is not the best with comforting (in fact, I’d wager he’s typically kind of shit at it), he tries reassuring the big guy that the two of them are at LEAST doing some good NOW. Even so, Scara knows all this was just temporary, and admits he is a little afraid of trying to start a clean life if they were to ever take down Aku.

Demmy, who had once thrived off of the idea of being a menace to others, decided he was willing to at least attempt to be better if it meant helping his big tin can partner out, which is something even Scara is surprised to see, but he doesn’t reject the idea. Ultimately, the two decide to try and “wing it”, see where this plan to take down Aku goes. The two start gushing about one another when Jack finally returns, which mirrors how the previous episode ended. Neither party knows what just happened, nor do they care to tell each other.

Episode 25 — I’m not entirely sure what this episode will entail either, but I’m at least certain it will involve Jack gaining “his sword” back, or at least a spiritual rendition of it, much like what happened in the comics. However, this alone would not defeat Aku once and for all, and Jack knew that well, so he still trusted Demmy and Scara to help him take down the big guy for good.

Episode 26 — This is the episode where the big fight with Aku happens.

I dunno how it starts, but I sure as hell know how it ends.

While the three are able to decently weaken Aku, they are unable to do the finishing blow. The battle keeps going, wearing out the three while Aku keeps on fighting.

However, due to Aku’s weakened state, Demongo gets an idea, a DANGEROUS idea.

He decides to try and take the essence of Aku himself, which

To everyone’s surprise

Actually works!

An Aku-shaped skull forms on Demongo’s chest, solidifying his control over his former master.

While Jack is hesitant as to what Demongo would do next, one of the first things Demmy does is harness Aku’s powers to provide a portal into the past, offering Jack a chance to go back into the past and right Aku’s wrongs. Despite it being the main theme of the original show, Jack refuses, choosing to stay in the present and help the people that still needed his aid here.

Demongo was extremely relieved to hear that, not only cause he didn’t want to risk himself and Scara being erased from existence, but also because Demmy KNEW someone was going to have to take Aku’s place as ruler, and he… weirdly didn’t want that.

The old Demongo would have dreamed of this day to come, but not THIS Demongo. He just wanted to live a simple-ish life with Scara, finally feeling content with himself.

Eventually, the two make a deal.

Due to Demongo having Aku’s essence, he would become the new public figure, donning a new emperor outfit & everything. However, he alone would not be the one to make the big decisions and shit.

He of course had Scara, who he’d ensure would live a more comfortable life by his side, but he didn’t wanna put any kind of pressure on the big guy to help him out.

No.

That kinda power would be put in Jack’s hands.

After all, he IS the son of the original emperor.

Despite this, Jack spends most of his time traveling the land and helping those in need, ensuring peace throughout the world…

…

Also, if there would be any kind of epilogue of sorts, it would DEFINITELY involve the two dorks getting married, because I’m based like that. :))) KWMWKWMWOSM

Alrighty!!

Now that the entire AU’s basic outline is out of the way, I wanna share some art I made exclusively for this AU so far!

First off, since I plan for Demongo to have alternative outfits as the story progresses, I made 3 additional default outfits for him to don.

All three of these outfits were initially designed by @tigerarainbowra-blog while I only tweaked them a bit, so you can thank her for these AWESOME outfits!

This one with the BEEG shoulder pad jackets is a favorite of mine (making its initial appearance in the rave episode), and is definitely the one bro is seen the MOST in throughout the entire AU.

Meanwhile, this last one is only seen halfway into season 2 once he gets used to being around Jack.

Scaramouche also had alternative outfits as well, but I haven’t gotten around to designing them just yet, so :p

Aside from additional outfits, I also have whipped up some designs for some original characters that’ll appear in this AU!

These two, Spunk and Clunk (named by the lovely @aceofcards0715 ), were heavily inspired by the two jester robots seen in the GBA game “Samurai Jack: Amulet of Time”.

The diamonds on their arms are supposed to be in relation to the syndicate, even if I haven’t quite figured out the details or it yet.

I was fascinated by just how similar these two looked compared to Scaramouche, so I doubled down on that idea.

You can see these guys as like

Newer models that were created using the same schematics for Scaramouche himself.

Cause I’m sure those schematics are out there SOMEWHERE…

Speaking of Scaramouche, I felt like giving the fella a BIT of a backstory, so I decided that instead of, say, being created by a bunch of evil scientists…

He was instead built by a retired one, who left once he had enough of the twisted work Aku put him through.

He is where Scaramouche gets a lot of his more humane quirks, even if the big guy doesn’t really remember his creator all too well.

The details are fuzzy…

Tigera also was the one to originally make Fern’s design.

Honestly, she’s been a BIG help with this AU, both with the designs and the episodes themselves, I couldn’t thank her enough for it!

Go check her out if you haven’t already! She’s SUPER talented!

Anyway

I have plenty of more original characters I want to properly flesh out, and a lot of new designs for some familiar faces (since this AU DOES take place a few decades after season 4 of the original series), so this will NOT be the last time you hear about this AU.

Oh no…

THIS is just the BEGINNING…

Although, please do keep in mind that this is just a concept I made for funsies, so I don’t plan on actually doing anything BIG with it.

Additionally, some details are subject to change…

HOWEVER, despite all of that, I hope what I CAN provide is still overall engaging!

I MIGHT just write out some of these episodes in the future, if I can garner the motivation for it…

For now though, I hope you all enjoyed this brief lil glimpse into the funni shit that occupies my brain on a daily basis! KWNWKWMWOSMOSDM

yknow what? a au where burn blister and blaze were like “lets all work together to rule the kingdom instead of starting a huge war”, the dragonets of destiny get good childhoods and spared the horrific amounts of trauma they all went through,Scarlet’s good and a girlboss and never used Peril as a killing machine, Peril and Sky actually grow up together, the dragonets of destiny all make the school and nothing bad happened to Sora,Umber,Carnelian or Bigtail ever.  Darkstalker’s ass stays IN THAT FUCKING MOUNTAIN, Glacier never died, her and Blaze get to be together, and the jade winglet all get a normal fucking school life, qinters canon bc i say so, queen wasp never existed at all so no tree wars and the rebels of pantala get normal lives, Katydid and Malachite never get separated, Sundew isn’t forcefully engaged to Mandrake, Lizard/Freedom got a actual life, basically everyone wins and nothing bad happened ever  (except for Darkstalker and Cottonmouth’s stank asses)

GUYS I NEED HONEST ANSWERS AND SOME HYPE FRANKLY

Would you read a WOF fan fiction based off the idea of the DoD but with several changes to characters, including replacing the main 5 with my own ocs, changed plot points, different overall result and different politics???

I've been formulating this idea for a while and really want to make it but I feel low on motivation bcuz idk if anyone will even want to read it. So

*also sorry I tagged the DOD even tho they're alternate characters in this. I just want this to be as widespread as I can*

Fake faces (CoT AU/DoD AU/WOF AU)

  original bases by K9pestilence    Lore the dragon flew through the sky, a egg of a skywing in their talons, his red skywing like scales shifted to the colours and shapes of a rainwing as the dragon changed the tribe, still dissappearing into the storming weather. 'i hate flying through storms, but this is what Clear'vision asked me to do, i do not get why we had to get these eggs THIS night specifically, but i know she is smart, smarter than me as a dumb rainwing i am... was that hint of a icewing wing and sandwings?' he thought to himself as something caught his eyes, his direction changed as he followed, silently using the woods to hide and he’d see something very very disturbing, he could see the icewing get caught by Burn and her dragons, he hissed to himself wanting to help, but couldnt. He silently approached as the sandwing princess was playing with a skywing egg, he hid by the wall of the cliff and as the sandwing dropped the egg, he would whisper some kind of spell and he felt the egg in his hold grow, saving the hatchlings life was easy, magically transfer the hatchling to hatch from this egg, he could lie to Clear'vision, yes he could! He felt bad for cheating life and death as the icewing was thrown over the cliff. He muttered to himself as he dissappeared into the night and  continuing his flight through the storm, the Talons plans would be overthrown by loosing their skywing but he couldnt focus on that, he had to focus on getting this egg to the island. As Blueberry flew above the sea, his scales again began to morph into the form of a pink icewing with hints of blue scales, hiding his hideous rainwing appearance and appear stronger, as strong as he was supposed to be. He landed on the wet sand of a lonely island after another dragon left, placing the skywing egg in the basket with the sandwing and nightwing eggs there, just before another dragon arrived and Clear'vision didnt speak to him, she was still upset that he failed to clean up his mess a few days ago, he should be a better dragon and he knew it, hed try to be better.

Base by Talia8pie (edits by me) Dignity (previously known as Blueberry) A rainwing/changewing hybrid with close songwing ancestry. His father was a change/song spy in the rainforest during the times of war examining the culture of the rainwings while blending in and falling in love with a rainwing. Dignity has a sister named Strawberry who is antagonistic and more selfish and being pretty opposite from Dignity, the siblings are naturally more aggressive towards one another. Oddly he inherited more his traits from his father and retained some powers from that ancestry, these powers being small scale shapeshifting(limited to changing tribes, getting gills, breathing fire/frostbreath), weaker screech of a songwing and most pecularly of all, animus magic from the great songwing grandfather Blueberry had kids of his own before his mate died and he found solace from a nightwing named Clear’vision, helping the dragoness with creating many spells for her, becoming dependant on her in emotional means but also doing his best to appease her. Like the enchanted tattoo giving its wearers insisibility powers and telepathy, enchanting some of the CoT with unique abilities, protecting the Wings for future organization from being found by other animusi Due to this he barely has time to check on his kids, but he did try to be there when they hatched, but failed to do so for his youngest. Who may his kids be? ((the kids are full rainwings so no special stuff for them from him))

Me and my gf had the idea of a wof arc 1 human au where the Talons of Peace is just like a special needs program, but it's like a really bad program.

This also is a bonus for me and my gf because we are almost incapable of writing neurotypical characters.

Also the DoD open a summer camp (Jade Mountain) when they're teens to spite the guardians and so other kids don't have to suffer through programs like that

@who-is-this-weirdo Morrowseer should do theater

This is the Epilouge for moon rising btw

     Morrowseer ran down the rocky terrain as the volcano shook the Earth. The rest of the tribe was heading the other direction towards the rainwing tunnel.

     He entered one of the sleeping caves knocking over Secretkeeper as she ran out.

     She gathered herself and asked, "Morrowseer, what's happening?"

     Morrowseer took her hand and squeezed tight, never wanting to let go.

     "The volcano is erupting, we need to get to the tunnel." He said. "We can make plans to take the Rainforest later, the dragonets won't be able to defeat us once we're there."

     Secretkeeper looked to the cave, "what about the plan? How is our Queen going to make it?"

     Morrowseer started to tug on her now, he was desperate to get her out safely. "Were going under that Rainwings claws for now, Greatness will take over once I fixed this mess. Now come on!"

     They took flight and flew towards the mass of nightwings. He could hear them shouting "QUEEN GLORY!" As they ran to safety.

     Cowards. He thought, he would never go under her wing like a scared hatchling, even in a situation like this. He already had a few ideas in mind.

     He could convince Greatness to take charge and order the nightwings to burn down the Rainwing village, Or he could kill glory and the dragonets himself.

     They landed at the Tunnel entrance, entering as the dragonets sent daggers at him.

     "You think we're gonna let you of all nightwings, into the Rainforest?" Said Tsunami sharply.

     "Well of course, who's gonna stop us? You?" He pointed his sharp claw at her before pulling it away, her bit missing.

     "If you wanna make it out you better start flying towards the mainland." Commented Clay

      "Maybe you'll have a chance to rethink your decisions on the way, and change."

     These dragonets and they're hope

     The volcano spat out another puff of large smoke, even scaring Morrowseer.

     "Morrowseer, let's go." Secretkeeper pulled his arm, he wrapped it around her and pulled her close with his tail.

     "Me and my love are going to the Rainforest no matter what." He snarled. "Now if you excuse me, we should get going."

     "Not until you stop tampering with the prophecy!" Said Sunny.

     He cackled, knowing the truth. "You silly sandwing, I control the prophecy." He leaned toward her, stretching his long neck.

     "Prophecies don't work like that. You can't control them. What ever is going to happen will happen- that's the whole point of destiny!"

     He grinned fiercely, teeth a stingy yellow. "I certainly can make the prophecy happen however I want,"

      Secretkeeper's eyes widend, "Morrowseer, we can't tell them the secret! That's why we don't let our dragonets go to the continent until they're 10!"

     He ignored her, and spread his wings to full extent making the shadows darker around him.

      "No you can't! And you know it, Fate will end this war." Snapped Sunny.

     "I made it up!" He bellowed, "It's just a big scheme to get the rainforest!"

      "You're only saying that to be awful!" She cried.

     "But, how?" Clay asked astonished.

"Simple," Morrowseer started to walk towards them, slowly closing them in the tunnel.

     "Queen Battlewinner and I wrote it together after the last Eruption destroyed part of the fortress. We knew we needed a home soon, and the prophecy was our plan to get it."

     "But, your never mentioned in the prophecy." Said Clay.

     "What does the prophecy have to do with were the nightwings live?" Starflight scratched his head.

     "We planned to control the dragonets by including a nightwing, who'd naturally be the leader." He lashed his tail back and fourth.

     "We had no idea what an Absolute FAILURE you'd turn out. The next step was to choose a sandwing queen and join forces to guarantee she'd win."

     Starflight scrunched his nose, "Then your ally, whoever you picked would help you take over the Rainforest.."

     "To Steal the Rainforest." Growled Clay.

"Precisely, and you were going to fulfill it." Morrowseer loved the fear displayed on their face.

     "Morrowseer let's go, we can discuss this later." Secretkeeper walked without him into the tunnel, but blocked by the dragonets.

     "He can't go! He's a monster!" Tsunami protested.

     "Really? Who's gonna stop us, the five off you?"

Clay, Tsunami, Starflight, Sunny, and Fatespeaker gathered around each other, facing evil. "Yes"

     The volcano exploded, almost blowing out Morrowseer's ear drums. He almost leaped over the dragonets, trying to make his way down the tunnel.

     "SECRETKEEPER LETS GO!" He shouted, but as the wind gust forced them out to the end of the tunnel, and into the cool rainforest, he felt the sting of realization that he'd left Secretkeeper instead of grabbing her. He wirled around, The dragonets were their instead. But they weren't looking at him, Starflight was burned badly, while Sunny whined over his unconscious body.

     He looked at the other side and there was Secretkeeper's charred body, she curled into a ball and was surprisingly conscious.

     Terror struck his chest, crushing him until he collapsed at her body.

     "Secretkeeper..." He couldn't focus, the only dragon that truly loved him back and thought he could potentially do good was dying, right in front of him.

     "Moon..." She managed.

     All emotions were running through him all at once, rushing like a cascading waterfall. Until finally, anger, rage.

     His breathing got deeper and rougher as he gritted his teeth and widend his eyes.

     He wirled around to face the dragonets.

"YOUVE CAUSED ME ENOUGH TROUBLE!" He roared.

     "I'VE BEEN WAITING YEARS TO STEP INTO THE RAINFOREST WITH MY LOVE."

     "You won't be in it for long!" Clay shouted.

     Morrowseer grabbed Clay and threw him against a tree and roared fiercely at him.

     "YOU! YOU ARE WEAK AND WORTHLESS TO US."

      Something sharp pinched his back, Tsunami was sanking her teeth further into his scales.

     "AARRRRAHHHHH!" He threw his back into a tree, crushing her.

      "Tsunami!" Yelled Glory. She swooped up and grabbed Morrowseer's horn and pulled as hard as she could.

      "AND YOU! NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF YOU DIDN'T EXIST!"

     "Morrowseer stop!" She aimed her fangs at him before missing and disintegrating a plant.

     "IVE BEEN TRAPPED ON THAT ISLAND, WISHING FOR A BETTER HOME FOR ME AND SECRETKEEPER."

     Deathbringer hopped into the battle. He tried holding him back by his tail, but he lashed him to the side.

     "Ready the darts!" Shouted the Queen.

Several rainwings lined up and frantically put darts into the blow guns.

     Morrowseer clawed and hit while they slipped just beneath his talons, like they always had.

     "I SHOULD'VE BEEN THERE TO CONTROL YOU, I SHOULD'VE BEEN THERE TO GET THE SKYWING EGG, I SHOULD'VE BEEN THERE, TO MAKE. THINGS. RIGHT."

     Lastly he kicked Deathbringer before several darts shot into his neck. He pulled them out quickly and tossed them.

    "You really think a couple of darts are going to stop–stop.." his grin faded, as he could feel the effectiveness hitting him.

    "Lava spitters..." He cursed before he collapsed to the ground, shaking the trees.

    

                        

                           *       *      *

     The next few days Morrowseer was forced into a sandpit with Mastermind. He was given several chances to visited Secretkeeper in the rainwing hospitals.

     He felt he should have already made several plans with Greatness, their true queen. But she was happy here, as well as lot of other nightwings.

     The dragonets found a spot to play near the pond, splashing at each over and catching oddly colored frogs and sloths.

Morrowseer wish he had that as a dragonet.

     Walking through the leafy doors he was met with a blue green dragonet at her side.

She had bright curved horns, large talons and a streak of blue stars under her wing. The most odd thing about her was a silver scale the shape of a teardrop, falling from her eye. He'd never seen her before and she looked extremely healthy, as though she never stepped foot onto that depressing waste land of a home.

     "Morrowseer," Whispered Secretkeeper. Her eyes were slightly open, just enough to recognize who he was. She'd been unconscious since the Eruption, and seeing her awake made Morrowseer's heart skip.

     "Secretkeeper!" He hopped to her side, almost forgetting the dragonet next to him.

He twined their tails and talons together.

     "I'm so happy your alive."

Her scales looked awful, and her eyelids were burned badly, it was a miracle she could see.

     "Hardly." said the dragonet. He gazed over at here, her eyes were a beautiful dark green, like emeralds hidden in the dark.

     "This is Moonwatcher." Secretkeeper put her talon on Moonwatchers shoulder. "Our daughter."

     Morrowseer looked over at her, he noticed the blacks and greys hinted in here scales, overlapped by the darker blues. The blues from Secretkeeper.

     "But, our egg disappeared before it hatched...unless-"

     "I hid her in the Rainforest. Morrowseer, she has great power we must not let anyone know." She pulled Moonwatcher closer to her.

     "I can read minds, father." She smiled at him. "I'm finally happy to meet you, I just wished it wasn't in this situation."

     Morrowseer felt his heart ache, he had a daughter! Who could read minds!

     Morrowseer always hoped of one day to be a dad. Away from the volcano, of course. Before the volcano erupted and they created the prophecy, he wanted to stay with Secretkeeper all the time. He always told her he would be the best husband and father he could be.

     Now he could, in the Rainforest, with fresh air, food, and no fear of dying every second. But- now that they were in the rainforest, the rainwings would control them.

     But now he had Moonwatcher, the first mindreader in centuries! Her power could scare the dragonets, take the Rainforest, and become the powerful tribe they used to be.

     "I kinda hoped not to do that.." said Moonwatcher disappointingly.

     "Morrowseer, if you're thinking what I think you are, promise me not to do it." Secretkeeper lashed her tail. "We are in the Rainforest, and possible peace with the rainwings if we keep trying could benefit the tribe even more."

     He sat quietly thinking of his choices. He could agree, be loyal– he hated to say that word about anyone but a nightwing, and become allies with Glory and rule the Rainforest peacefully together, Or Moon could take the throne herself, being the most powerful nightwing now, and leading a great tribe.

     He seen Moonwatcher wince at that thought, and pulled her closer.

     "Think about it Secretkeeper, once you're better our daughter can rule, who better to rule than the first mindreader in years?"

     Secretkeeper curled in her tail and shivered, she spoke with hoarse words, "I'm not going to make it, Morrowseer."

      The words struck his heart like a sandwing bard tail slashing his chest.

     "Yes you are, your the strongest nightwing I know." He said fiercely, with a hint of struggle in his voice.

     "Please just consider it, if Moon doesn't want to rule we could rule–Or maybe another nightwing fierce enough if that's not what you want."

     "None of this is what I want." Her eyes filled with tears, "I want you to promise me not to do anything violent to the rainwings, or to take the Rainforest by force, when I'm gone."

     She tucked her wings over her head hide and tried to hide her tears but her whimpers flowed through the air stabbing Morrowseer's heart.

     He wanted to hold her, but he didn't know if that would hurt her worse. He loved her so much it hurt.

     He layed his wings onto her back, "very well," he said, "I promise.

     Moon took him out of the room, and sat on the pavilion next to him.

     She held her breath for a few minutes before she spat. "She's not going to make it."

     He could see the lump in her throat that she tried to hold back, but he knew she was right.

     "But there's still a little hope." He watched cheerful rainwings play in the mud and pick berries with each other.

     Watch them play while my love dies and my tribe turns weak, just like THEM.

     "Some of them are strong, they've just been disconnected from the world for so long, they don't know what the true world is, but that's going to change. Because of Queen Glory." Moon answered his thoughts, "I know you hate them but it's not their fault you had to live on that volcano."

     Flashes of the towering volcano as it exploded behind him entered his mind, he tried to push them down.

     "We were so desperate," he said, "there were fewer dragonets each year, our tribe wasn't going to make it."

     "I understand, thats why mother kept me here." She leaned onto his side. "And now I have these power I didn't want, and I don't know how to control them."

     Morrowseer pulled a wing to her side, and held her. "That's why I am going to be the best father a dragonet could ever have." He said determinedly.

     "Dad?" Moonwatcher asked, "Will you keep my powers a secret?"

     His eyes darted amongst the greenery around them.

     "Of course, Moon."
