@ruiner-of-days

(Edit: I was in the middle of answering your ask, when I accidentally posted it before I was finished with it. I went to go edit it, and ended up DELETING IT!!!! I’M SO SORRY!!! I did manage to copy most of your ask, so I’ll put it right HERE.)

Like is kiki with the wittebros if she isn't in the emperor's coven? Since it seems hunters a descendant of the wittebanes I have to wonder how does he feel about Philip and Caleb? Oh! And how does he feel about Nicholas and Abigail? (Does he even know he's related to them?) Also does eda realize she's technically royalty? And luz must be having a fun time theorizing about the wittebanes and hunter lol, just realized that caleb probably had to see Lorelei die...unless she's also alive? And btw do Caleb Philip and eda interact since their technically family (unless caleb and lorelei didn't have kids I'm assuming they did but if I'm wrong please correct me) also imagine running away from your abusive family only for them to follow you and become rulers of said place you came to escape OOF- (btw I'm sorry if this is too long I just have a lot of questions about this cool au)

Sorry it took so long to respond, I was literally fangirling over someone gaining IMMEDIATE interest in something I created over a hyperfixation. You have no idea how much your single ask means to me!!! Don’t feel sorry about the questions! For Titan’s sake! ASK. ME. MORE.

So to address your questions.

Where is Kikimora?

Kikimora lives with Belos. During the years where Belos was hiding from Caleb, he ended up stumbling upon Kikimora, fresh out of heartbreak. She had been disowned by her family and left with nothing but the clothes on her back. Belos let her stay with him to avoid the boiling rain, and she was going to leave the next day. Until daylight hit and she saw what an absolute MESS Belos lived in. She vowed that he would live in a clean space, and ended up cleaning everything. She was going to leave afterwards, but used the excuse that Belos would ‘just make it messy again’. Eventually, she stopped commenting on leaving, and Belos never saw any reason to kick her out. She soon learned science and chemicals from the books Belos kept and started helping him with his machine building.

As for her magic, she uses illusions, potions, and healing. The latter she learned because Belos had a tendency to have his machines blow up in his face a few times before he got it right. Since she was with Belos, she never had a reason to join the Emperor’s Coven.

How does Hunter feel about Caleb and Philip?

It took a while before he ever met Caleb or Philip. He ended up in the Demon Realm through an actual leak, not the door like Luz. He ended up running into Eda and Luz during ‘Covention’, Hunter using the time while everyone was attending the event to walk around with less people looking at him. He ended up running into Eda, Luz and King on their way home after their Witch’s Duels with Lilith and Amity.

Naturally, Luz is excited to see another human, but Eda is confused as to how he got there due to her having the portal door. She is also confused as to why she looks like her Family Friend. Hunter, a little confused and a little frightened, is not sure what to do. However, Eda ends up taking Hunter and his feathered friend to her home. (to be explained later) She gives him the offer of returning to the Human Realm, but he refuses since he ran away and had no intentions of returning. This meant that Hunter lived with Eda for the most part and didn’t meet the Wittebanes until later.

He finally meets them when he and Luz, coming back from school, return to three new faces in the Owl House. Caleb, Philip, and Kiki end up at the Owl House when their current temporary abode was destroyed by coven scouts, thinking they were Wild Witches.

Caleb was mostly confused as to how Hunter looks almost EXACTLY like him, mostly due to the fact that he’s never fathered a child. Well, not one that survived anyways. And certainly not recently within the last sixteen years.

Its’ lack of any evidence doesn’t really stop Caleb from becoming attached to Hunter and vice versa. Hunter even manages to wiggle his way into Philip’s heart when he learns that Philip likes science and gives him some of his old school books he had in his bag. The older man is fascinated by the updated knowledge and is more willing to let Hunter spend time with him. When he learns that Hunter is very knowledgeable, he finds he likes their science talks. Especially when it leaves Caleb confused by all the different terms they use.

How does Hunter feel about the Emperor and Empress?

Well, Hunter doesn’t know very much about them, no more than Luz knows. The brothers don’t even know who are under those masks the Emperor and Empress wears. Neither brother has seen hide nor hair of their mother or father in about 196 years since they last saw them. During the period when the Emperor’s Coven and the Coven System was being put into play, Caleb was chasing after Philip again on another set of Isles. So Hunter won’t be meeting either of these figures until later.

How does Eda feel about the brothers/being royalty?

Well, in my AU, Eda only knows Caleb as a very long living Family Friend of her family’s. He’s been in and out of the family’s lives for decades, and he’s been that way for so long that her family as of now sees it as normal. Caleb married into the Clawthorne family, his name technically being Caleb Wittebane-Clawthorne. His name and face are in the family albums, but rarely does anyone ever look that far back.

For Eda personally, however, he was a stable rock in her life that wasn’t stifling. When she got cursed, she felt like there was no one she could turn to. She injured her father to point of ruining his carving career, her mother would stop at nothing to see her cursed removed, no matter the method, and her sister was suddenly extremely overbearing. When she ran away, she ended up running into Caleb, who was on his way for a surprise visit to see how Dell was doing after the incident. She begged him to take her away, and he did, without question. Well, at first anyways. He took her somewhere where she could clear her head before questioning her. She admitted her problems, because Caleb was a figure who had always been willing to listen to her and not judge her for her feelings or thoughts.

He helped her through a lot of her problems, and while it didn’t completely stop her desire to keep running from them, it helped her with making a few better choices in her life. She did end up going back ONCE to try and make up with her mother and to talk with her father, a suggestion from Caleb. But she never got to see her father because she had a spat with her mother that lead her to running away and coming upon the portal like in canon. She never told anybody about the portal, except Caleb, who didn’t want anything to do with the portal, and he would never tell Eda why.

She only met Philip until he and Caleb started living together again, she’d heard stories about him from Caleb all the time during his visits, but she had never met him before. By the time she met him she was already an adult and making a name for herself in the Boiling Isles.

Caleb would often make house visits to Eda, which she always appreciated. She would always offer a place for him and his brother to stay, but Caleb would always refuse if his brother did. Caleb spent YEARS chasing after his brother, he refuses to do so again.

How does Luz feel about the Wittebanes?

Since Luz met them at the same time as Hunter, she learns about them as he does. She’s excited to see more humans in the Demon Realm, and she’s always trying to ‘unlock their tragic backstory’. She shows a lot of interest in Caleb’s and Philip’s own way of doing magic. Caleb being rather proficient with Flapjack, and Philip using artificial magic with technology. She did theorize about Hunter’s relation to Caleb, but it trailed off when Caleb said the only child he fathered never made it. She never touched that subject again.

What happened to Caleb’s wife, Lorelei Clawthorne?

I made a small mention earlier in this post, but Lorelei Clawthorne died at the hands of Abigail while she was 3 1/2 months pregnant. Abigail was ruthless and Caleb and his in-laws never got to bury her or the child. Caleb never even knew if he had a daughter or a son.

I hope that answered all of those questions, and possibly even gave you new ones. Don’t be afraid to ask, since you’re probably the only one who does at this point in time.

wolfwood redraws (ID in alt text)

#nicholas d wolfwood #trigun #trigun maximum #tw blood #going to be talking vol 9 spoilers in here pls do not read if u have not read it!!#wolfwood my beloved. he's such a battle genius with such strong survival instincts and incentive to fight. it makes me so sad but also #it's just the way he's been able to live for as long as he has [explodes]#midvalley calling him a demon/devil (iforget which word) and livio being like “victory seems impossible” when faced against him aughhh AUGH #he's clearly not invincible - vol 8 proved that when he almost did get beat if not for vash swooping back in... but the way he carries #the battles really makes it feel like it. especially whenever he “revives” for the sake of protecting another person. i.e. him getting #back up to defeat livio - him battered and worn from the fight but then pushing his body to get up when chapel aimed at the orphanage #and then despite the blood gushing out of him he still regained cautiousness to defend razlo at the end.... ugh.... ugh.....#anyway... i love how nightow draws ww - these were fun to do. ive been meaning to do these redraws esp from vol 9/10 #and maybe ill go back to do redraws from his previous fights. all and all i just need to get down how he uses the punisher properly #ruporas art

Machete has parents?? I'm not familiar with their actual lore, so I've been imagining Machete as a desolate victorian orphan boy

Everyone has parents, he didn't materialize out of thin air (or evolve from a crumpled napkin).

But he lost contact with them early on and doesn't remember much of anything about them. Machete was a sickly kid and his family was going through a rough patch at the time, they were constantly struggling to find the time and funds to care for him. Child mortality was high and it was starting to look increasingly likely that he wouldn't make it. He was around three or four when they left him at the closest monastery that accepted foundlings and he hasn't heard of them since.

#it was child abandonment but I don't think they did it out of malice or anything #monasteries often functioned as hospitals and/or orphanages and his parents hoped it would give him a better fighting chance #sending children to monasteries to be raised as oblates wasn't uniquely uncommon #and it worked he was well looked after there and probably wouldn't have survived otherwise #but of course being separated from your family isn't great for a child's psyche in any situation #answered #anonymous #Vaschete lore #in modern au he has a better but still complicated relationship with his parents #he's not super close to his brothers but they get along fine #so not victorian (different era) and not an orphan (his parents aren't dead they just chose to sever ties with him)

every time i think about how qpac and qmike grew up in an orphanage together with no one to rely on but each other i want 2 break down sobbing. what do u MEAN they were alone what do u MEAN they were just children who had to take care of each other!!! do u ever think about how pac was two years older than mike and part of the reason he's so protective and self sacrificial when it comes to his family is probably because he grew up trying to take care of mike in their younger years and probably has some form of eldest daughter syndrome. do u ever think about how mike probably tried to make up for that by being the more abrasive one and standing up for pac when pac was just going to roll over and take whatever people did to him just to keep mike safe and no matter what they did it got them into trouble anyway. do u ever think about how for the longest time they only had each other. i'm going 2 eat plywood

#qsmp #Q!TAZERCRAFT UR EVERYTHING TO ME #imagining them as teenagers running away from their orphanage and stealing shit hand in unlovable hand waaghghgwaough ;-;#they were just kids THEY WERE JUST KIDS #qtazercraft my beloved i am going 2 scream #sorry this isn't relevant to any streams rn but i am having a think about them

I adore Vivio as well just two very kind but very broken people trying their very best hhhhhhhhhh

But Chyeah one of my fav things about their dynamic is how comfortable they are around each other- esp with Vash being so trusting of Liv from nearly the very get-go

Whether it’s goofin together or having a deep moment, it comes easy to them-

I like the idea that whenever LR are around it means that it’s time to Rest™️ for Vash, mind and heart at peace knowing everything will be alright since they’re there (even if it gets in the way of quality time sometimes)

#vash keeping his visits to the orphanage short and infrequent enough out of fear that he’ll draw negative/destructive attention there #even with LR and Miss Melanie’s reassurance that he’s always welcome there #short stays are filled with playtime with kiddos and quiet time with wolfwood #not much room for vash n liv to spend quality time aside from briefly catching up with one another #hhhhhhngnfhfhfjhfhfh o no I made myself sad #trigun #vash the stampede #vash x livio #livio the double fang #Vivio #trigun maximum #Trimax #drawing #sketch #digital art #fan art #trigun manga

Never going to forget the time someone tried to cancel me for writing fanfiction with Mello in it.

Why?

Cause he came from an orphanage 🧍

#Orphans don't deserve love #Nobody that comes from an orphanage gets shipped around these parts #My attempted cancellation will never not be funny to me

I think the people complaining about AFOs back story have forgotten what his character represents.

He’s a manipulative rich old man that wants to own and monopolize every major resource in the world so that he can be considered a god.

His entire being is a metaphor for major corporations and every politician and billionaire ceo ever… so him being a narcissistic and greedy kid isn’t at all surprising. He doesn’t have a traumatizing backstory because he’s a manipulative power hungry chump like he has been the entire series.

#he literally grooms children to his dirty work for him #he’s taken over orphanages and hospitals to create mindless monsters to do his labor for free #he’s manipulated people by giving them fractions of power so that they’ll bend to his will #he’s irredeemable and idk why people are surprised #also you mfs trying to compare him to Katsuki need to reread the series #there’s a difference between a spoiled kid dwelling in the praise he received from adults around him #and whatever the fuck afo is #Katsuki didnt fucking kill people #and he was never a narcissist #he wanted to be top hero because he was told his whole life that he could be #also Katsuki never viewed Deku as his property wtf are y’all on #bnha #bakudeku #bkdk #bnha spoilers #bnha 407
