au where ghost, freshly ascended and bulldozed back in time to The Sealing just... picks up and yeets tpk and radiance over the dimensional horizon in different directions
tpk lands in pokemon and is immediately mistaken for a wurmple. the trainer in question doesn't have a pokedex, that's only for regional professor associates.
radiance lands in undertale and is immediately accosted by the local DETERMINATION nexus thinking that she oughta be friend shaped (this is a threat). also, you can't throw a stone without hitting someone who can cast spells, so she isn't even all that special down there.

there are a handful of significant missteps in the His Dark Materials books but I think the biggest one was saying that when Lyra left Pan on the shore, that was the fulfilment of the prophecy about her committing a terrible betrayal
and not, you know, when she delivered her best friend to be killed

Wake up everyone, new au just dropped lolol
Primordial King Au which is shared with @mangelickat since she helped me the most with it along with her ocs adding hella nice touches to the story uwu
It's basically like a reversed au but with extra extra steps, Kito was born not man nor demon, Red son kept his Samadhi fire, mk is the monkey king and Mei his warrior dragon bestie
Nezha was reborn after the full war defending against heaven
If anyone wants me to explain further, lemme know in the comments or reblog!

his spidey senses are tingling
ID and (better quality) stills under the cut!
[ID: An illustrated gif of Orym of the Air Ashari from Critical Role. He is standing in front of the red moon, Ruidus, and its red storm. He is hurt and clutching his bleeding  sword arm with his other hand. He’s leaning slightly to the left, as if listening to something, and his eyes open to stare at the viewer after green squiggles indicate that he noticed something. End ID.]

Finally finished Siegfried's Paladin design for my Ptutu DnD AU!!!
Mytho chose Oath of Heroism* for his Paladin subclass because he felt it fit him the best to play that subclass type, and he also wanted to be a shining armor of positivity compared to Fakir's tragic character's backstory.
*Author also might have changed a couple of spells from the subclass since none of the party members had proper healing capabilities and he feared they would all TPK on their first session as levels 3 party members
Also fun fact about the comic - I actually rolled for all of the character stats for the 4 party members of this AU and wrote them down to implement them onto the stats of the characters. Mytho's was the most stubborn for me to roll out until he had a proper set of stats on his character sheet (at least a proper Strength stat that was higher than a 12 lmao). :'D

What if Tobias was infested in 23?
I'm trying to get out of the habit of writing Total Party Kill AUs, but I also can't see a way to write this without it becoming a TPK. Anyone else able to see a way out?

I Doodled @bluegekk0 's Feral Pale King Boi!

Not the best, but I tried!
The FPK AU is adorable, and delightful. I quite enjoy the dynamic between TPK and Grimm, so fluffy!

New Silly AU! This max’s au was completely destroyed by Zero, and is the only survivor. She can see into the future with the use of her tarot cards, and (like AUA Max) can use these cards as a wepon!
Tumblr media
she perfers to go by her A.U name only, and not Max. Her A.U Acronym is TPK

tpk ghost hunter au i’m imagining it. b’elanna would always try to play it off as totally not being afraid at all but then be so jumpy. tom would be playing so hard into the mulder archetype, red string and all. the scariest shit would always happen to harry but he’d still vehemently not believe in the supernatural

Made up fic title: "troubleshooting tips from the wells of time"
ooh, okay, a leverage fic. a case went very, very wrong--tpk wrong--and eliot gets pulled back in time to try to fix it, groundhog-day au style. he can't fix it from the very beginning, because the day *started* with hardison already kidnapped, but he has to find a way to keep "kidnapped" from turning into "killed"--and keep the rest of them from going down too. he gets helpful tips on what to fix via an annoying app that popped up on relived day 4 and that he doesn't know how to delete. he can't figure out how it even knows he's relived this day so many times already. (this turns out to be hardison, who was also reliving the days and managed to finally use what little resources he had where he was trapped to help)

thought it would be good to create a place where i can find all of my works without having to extensively search my tumblr. also a way for me to see if i can summarize how my writing has changed over the course of six years.
also: hi! i'm thisisnotthenerd. i came to fandom over 8 years ago and i've been writing fanfic since ~2018. recently i've gotten into data analysis for dimension 20, so you'll probably see a bunch of that from me. to see some of my work, click through this post!
FANWORKS:
FMA:B
Edward's New Groove: crackfic where Ed gets genderbent after the Promised Day and immediately gets thrown into solving another mystery about Xerxes. discontinued, though i may go back to rewrite and update when i have the energy.
The Alchemist's New Groove: the promised rewrite of Edward's New Groove.
A:TLA
The Spirit-Touched Series: AU where Raava isn't the only Great Spirit to take on a vessel. focused on the Gaang and their adventures as a troop of living spirits.
MDZS/The Untamed
Unconcerned With Worldly Pursuits: Lan Wangji decides to start acting like Wei Wuxian after his death as a memorial. Chaos ensues. Comes with an author-read podfic.
Dimension 20
bands of iron, bands of gold: Elody's perspective on Gerard's disappearance and what she saw of the TPK in the original Neverafter
thisisnotthenerd's d20 stats: a statistics series that i started after i finished watching every season of dimension 20 (at the time this was during mentopolis, and i've kept up live since then) that catalogs a wide variety, from episode runtimes, to level progressions, to character ages, and more. you can check out the #thisisnotthenerd's d20 stats tag here on tumblr, or look at my magnum opus of a spreadsheet.
Songs of the Celestine: a gift for Finn (@shakespearestolemyurl) for the 2023 D20 Gift Exchange that became an original song with lots of academic/theoretical scaffolding. another fic that includes recordings, this time of the song.
Musings on the Solisian School District: my thoughts on the structure of the Aguefort Adventuring Academy as we come back to school for Fantasy High Junior Year. lots of theories on leveling and how the quest system works.
the perils of xp leveling: a subseries to Musings on the Solisian School District, which considers the difference between milestone and xp leveling in fantasy high, using the bad kids and the rat grinders as case studies.
the Polls: I've done a fair few of these, so check out the tags to see the winners: #level 20 battle royale, #ultimate d20 class fight, #battle episode of all time, and most recently, who has their shit together?
the d20 episode randomizer: what its says on the tin. if you can't decide on what episode of d20 to watch, pick one with the click of a button. also includes options for alphabetical, chronological, and other cursed sorting methods for watching.
Critical Role:
Divinity in the Face of Calamity: post-Apogee Solstice flash fics that incorporate mechanics into the storytelling. some have specific word counts, some don't.
smaller AUs: this is stuff I've considered but haven't made into full fledged fics of their own yet: the bell's hells leverage au and the cr regency au.

I lovvvvveeee your story Old Haunts and get so excited when I see updates. It’s one of those stories that make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. You’re such a talented writer and I just wanted to let you know your stories literally make my day!! ♥️
For the ask: 🥺🤡💖💞🤲
Oh my goodness! 🥹🥹🥹 Thank you so much! You’ve made my whole day! ♥️♥️♥️
And thank you for all the asks! This has been so fun!
🥺 - “Is there a certain type of moment or common interaction between your characters that never fails to put you in the feels?” Is this in canon or fan fiction writing, I wonder??? Both? I’ll go with tropes that get me in general. I get really swoony for comfort in whatever form that comes. Hurt/Comfort is my jam! When characters are in mental/emotional/physical peril and someone just holds them, or listens to them, or encourages them… ugh I melt to the floor!
🤡 - “What’s a line, scene, or exchange you’ve written that’s made you laugh?” I don’t laugh out loud too much with my writing, but I’ve been next to wheezing for more than one scene with Eddie and Maggie. When she banishes Eddie to the “boy bed”, jumping on Eddie’s head while he’s sleeping, when he tries to sneak her into Steve’s RV, etc. Maggie honestly always cracks me up!
💖 - “What made you start writing?” I honestly don’t know in general, I’ve been journaling and writing for as long I can remember. But, for fic writing… I’m pretty sure my earliest fan fiction was Avatar: The Last Airbender (Zutara forever lol) and usually, like most fic writers, I just started writing stories if I didn’t like the way a story ended or I wanted more of something that I felt was lacking… Ships were a big driving force to that. It was so fun to just recreate or rewrite characters and stories I loved.
💞 - “Who is your comfort character?” Presently, Eddie Munson and Chrissy Cunningham. They’re so soft and cozy! I live in the forest scene 💚🧡🖤
🤲 - “Would you please share a snippet of a WIP?” How about a little bit of the long awaited prequel to “Old Haunts”? Working title is “The Vanishing of Chrissy Cunningham.” It’s my Chrissy Lives AU/Season 4 Rewrite:
“Can’t help but notice the freshies are acting a little skittish today. You know anything about that?”
He doesn’t. “Probably scared shitless since I’m about to annihilate you all in a TPK tonight.” Eddie muses casually, straightening with a frown when a little folded paper flutters like a butterfly into his face, falling to the floor from his locker.
It’s very much not his, tinted slightly pink with red journal lines. Curious, he bends down to pick it up.
It’s a little early in the day for requests. Still, it is Friday, he supposes.
Gareth is still going on about something, some concern about the campaign, but he isn’t listening as he unfolds it.
I would like to buy from you.
-Chrissy Cunningham
Locker 197
It’s written in neat cursive with a blue fountain pen.
He stares at it for almost a full minute, brows furrowing together, his palms beginning to sweat like he’s back in fucking Middle School.
Well… that sure as hell doesn’t make any sense.
Spastically he shoots his head up, looking around, eyes wild as he slams his locker shut to get it out of his line of sight. Pulse racing, he searches the sea of students moving through the halls to their next class.
He finds her.
She’s just there across the way, her back is to him, hair tied up in a neat little ponytail with a large green scrunchie. She’s tucked up tightly under Carver, his hand resting casually on her hip as he yuks it up with one of the other meatheads. She’s almost lost in the sea of green and orange surrounding her.
As if feeling his gaze, she glances over her shoulder, her big timid eyes locking with his.
Eddie swallows thickly, his throat suddenly dry.
For a moment he can’t hear anything at all, the world is slow, hazy, silent.
He tilts his head at her slightly, mouth parting in question.
She then blinks slowly at him as if to nod and his heart skips a beat.
There’s no mistake. No trick.
It’s from her.
She looks away just as quickly when Carver reclaims her attention. She mumbles something in reply to him and they move on down the hall together. She spares him one last anxious glance before being swallowed up whole by her royal entourage.
“Dude, you good?” Gareth mutters, realizing he definitely missed something, looking around to see what has his attention.
Eddie blinks, waking up from the spell with a tremor, shoving the note in his pocket hurriedly.
“What’s going on?” Gareth wonders aloud, eyes back on him.
Eddie stares off in her direction one last time, shouldering his bag. “The hell if I know.” he replies, a bemused half smile involuntarily curling at the corner of his lips.
His leg bounces without stopping all through Trig. He’s not listening to a word Cussler is saying. He’s way too keyed up.
I would like to buy from you.
Chrissy Cunningham.
Chrissy fucking Cunningham wants to meet with him to buy drugs.
Trying and failing to work out her sudden interest in recreational activities, his pen moves on its own over his notebook paper, telling her where to find him, what time. He jots down directions to the old abandoned picnic table behind the school, quite sure there’s no way in hell she’s been back there before.
He’s done this hundreds of times, for every rank of the student body, but still his hand is shaking way more than usual as he writes.
Calm the fuck down, he tells that juvenile part of himself he has proactively tried to kill and bury throughout the years.
That part of him that is way too giddy about this whole damn thing. About seeing her, talking to her.
She just wants weed. It’s just a deal.
It’s been years since he spoke actual words to her. She probably thinks what everyone else thinks of him. That he’s a lowlife. Trailer trash. A freak.
“How do I look?” he asks her. “Metal?”
“…Is Metal good?” she tilts her head, hand still holding his chin. He grins.
“Metal is the best.”
The prettiest smile he has ever seen suddenly blooms across her face. “Then yeah, totally Metal!”
The memory clashes violently against his suspicions, but he shoves it aside.
That was eight fucking years ago.
When the bell rings, he quickly phases into the halls, the note tucked safely in his sleeve. He’s got to do this just right.
Slipping it in her locker is not a risk he’s willing to take with all the jocks hovering around her all day.
He knows she passes him near the water fountain on his way to English Lit. They’ve passed one another there everyday for the whole semester. He wonders if she knows that too, because her shaky eyes lock on him the moment she comes into view, just like before.
And Christ, she’s pretty.
He levels his gaze with hers, raising his brows, inclining his chin slightly toward her.
A subtle signal. One she thankfully receives.
Carefully she wades towards him through the flow of students, and his heart rate rises to a concerning rate. He has to be fast. He can only imagine the backlash if someone sees. For him. For her. Luckily the halls are crowded like they usually are this time a day.
That and she’s walking alone for once.
When their shoulders brush, he pulls the note from his sleeve with his middle and ring finger and presses it into her palm, feeling her fingers curl around it, soft, featherlight.
A jolt of electricity travels up his arm at the touch of her skin, making his fist clench tightly as he quickens his pace. She’s already well past him.
He doesn’t dare glance back.

imagine if tpk didnt announce hollows death to the public in the hfd au but just kinda. kept it secret, and the only way the people end up knowing is through rumours escaping the palace
Hmmm that could be interesting!!! I really do like the idea of him just. Overcompensating to the max tho. Like giving them all the honours of a prince and more bc of his guilt
Having Hollow's death be revealed via rumours could be a cool way to absolutely DESTROY his reputation tho ngl
Like a "he killed his own child and couldn't even be bothered to hold a funeral?? For shame" sorta thing

10, 24, 7, 1
for owen and vera :3
1. What memory would your OC rather just forget?
vera - hmmm... the million memories of her friends deaths. whether they be corrosion, abnos, mechanical failures, or like. really anything in the corp. anything could kill you. she's probably learned to be vigilant all the time bc of it, and hates the paranoia she's developed (even if death is meaningless, it still hurts :()
owen - t589. what do you mean only one? thats all one to me
actually i got it. when he has to escape breaches in t589 with bella. they were terrifying + in retrospect just. fucked up as hell, considering a) owen and bella were kids and b) sometimes the breaches were corroded kids. not to mention the more gory ones and the memories of bella just losing her shit/breaking down/etc etc. same goes for him ofc, but he'd rather forget seeing bellas pain more.
7. What's one way your OC has changed since you first came up with them?
vera - her hair! it began as 2 buns, then became the pigtails. they always had those little tails though. + the estra back hair she has sometimes wasnt there originally
owen - he and bella used to not be siblings until around like d25 where i noticed they were similar (hair color and ppodae gift), now its a big part of their stories
10. What's an AU that would be interesting to explore with your OC?
vera - oooohh... maybe a sephirah au. ive been thinking of it a bit but i think itd be genuinely inch resting to see how they react to their new circumstances (robot body, new job, cant die, The Horrors). she does have one already but she's not very developed so. yeah. and ofc she'd take malkuths place.
owen - slaps him into dnd. go, my boy. cause a tpk
but i think thatd be pretty interesting. he and bella would be half-elves or humans corrupted by some kinda monster like they had been originally. would make for some interesting attacks and combat. and The Lore :3 and party interactions too.... man. dnd is fun
24. What is an alternative life path your OC might have gone down? How different would their life be if they'd made those decisions?
vera - not leaving the index, and becoming a proselyte or messenger. she'd wind up like her mother - someone whose empathy and stubbornness and such - the fire in them - being curbed in order to survive the index, with regrets she cant pursue. stuck in a middle ground until something breaks - she either gives into the index and loses herself, or gives up on the index and dies/leaves/etc. if she left, she'd likely join an office and become a fixer from her previous experience.
owen - not joining t589 and never getting into l corp (vera doesnt either in this scenario but still). they'd have to fend for themselves on the backstreets, which is. hard as fuck i assume. they'd turn out more ordinary, working whatever jobs they can to get into the nest. either that or they'd join an office or syndicate - maybe turning to one to survive.
