Fairy tale Au Post 1
TW: For blood, scars, mentioned murder, and slight gore
I love the Grimm Fairytales and Fairytales in general. So, I decided to make an au with Hello Puppets which takes inspiration from the tales intertwining in the musical "Into the woods"
Credits to Bright and Elena's picrews:

So here's a brief summary of the Au
I don't believe in Fairytales: When Sarabeth was 5 years old, she swore every night an angel-like woman would burst out of her grandmother's storybook to tell her stories every night. The stories, of course, were Fairytales in the book itself. The fairy would read her stories until one night she stopped as Beth grew older.
22 years past, and, now, journalist Sarabeth "Beth" Jenkins finds the storybook in her mother's attic once more and decided it to a local library as she is too old for Fairytales ...or she anticipated because fate gave her an unwelcoming twist
After opening the book, Beth finds herself trapped in the book itself unable to escape unless she fixes the torn pages. With new friends and foes, Beth will try to find a way to return the balance of the storybook and the real world as soon she realizes there is more than stories.
TO NOTE:
1. The only romance to be found would be only with Beth and Anthony, the established couple of "The Iron Stove", and Owen and Amy
2. I took some creative liberties with the stories themselves for fun and for oblivious reasons
3. Stories do interconnect, as the fairy tale world is not exactly that complex due to the characters being from written stories (so here's the inspo from the "Into the woods")
4. Gremlin doesn't have a second picrew due to gremliness (picrew didn't have her blue
5. I didn't realize until too late there was an axe option
Here are some of the main characters!
Sarabeth "Beth" Jenkins
Story: Not yet written/Forced into "Red Ridding Hood" by book
Character role: The human from the real world/Red Ridding Hood
When she opens her grandmother's fairy tale book, she is sent to the beginning of Red Ridding Hood's story as she is off to see her Grandpa...until she remembers she doesn't have one.
But, hey, At least she got to wear modern clothes!
Although she is stuck in a world where danger constantly lurks around...
Owen Gubberson "The Wolf Man"
Story: UNKNOWN/ Red Ridding Hood
Character Role: Unknown original role/ Big Bad Wolf
He appears to be the Big Bad Wolf in "Red Ridding Hood" but...he is not fully a wolf, isn't he? Maybe he is a werewolf or something, but there is something off about him...
And why he wants the storybook so badly?
Still, he is clearly someone to avoid....
The Fairy Godmother
Story: Unknown original story/ Cinderella and other stories relating to fairy Godmothers
Character role: Unknown original origin/ The Fairy Godmother in fairy tales
It is unknown how she came to be a Fairy Godmother, or where did she originally come from. Some say that she was not a fairy tale character at first, or that she was responsible for the narrator to disappear.
Nonetheless, she was a benevolent protector, and helped Queen Daisy to go to the festival before becoming a Queen. She also did help many fairy tale characters before her disappearance.
It is rumored that she is still alive somewhere, but it's well known she lost an eye and a rose bloomed instead
Rumor goes it was the Wolf Man behind the incident because she allegedly cursed him...

The girl, however, was smart and managed to outsmart her husband many times. One day, the husband gave her the keys of his mansion so she could visit any room she liked except one with a red door while he was out in business. Realizing something was off, the ever so smart girl opened the door and realized the widower murdered all of his six wives, and she was probably next as the key to the forbidden room was enchanted so when she accidentally smeared it would never come off.
The husband return knowing his wife opened the door, and he took his sword ready to murder her in that dreaded room. However, when he entered, he never realized his axe was missing until too late.

Sadly, the king was slowly becoming mad and obsessed with having a son to take the throne, to the point that he swore to kill his own daughters if the next child of his was a son. The queen hid her daughters in the forest and promised to raise a white flag if her child was a girl (meaning they could return), or a red flag if her child was a son (meaning they could never return.) A red flag was rose and the seven girls never returned. Eventually, the queen died, and the king married a witch, however the only son made a promise to his mother to visit his sisters behind his father's back. The girls loved and swore to protect their brother from any danger, until sadly the witch found out about them and saw the seven girls as a threat to her throne.
She cursed the girls to be swans, and then took the Prince's eyesight so he could never find his sisters ever again unless a gentle girl from another world's tears fall into his eyes, breaking his blindness.
His father died, and a mysterious fairy turned his stepmother into a mirror. He was eventually found by the dog of a widow, friend of a benevolent Queen, who took her under wing. Now he is trying to find his sisters and break the curse
Until Beth broke his curse, and offered to find his sisters so he and the rest could get their happily ever afters.
Mortimer Handee (The witch)

Once upon a time, there was a magician king who lost it all, and swore to get revenge on anyone that wronged him. So, he turned to dark magic and began to torment princes, princesses, damsels, knights, etc. He particularly cursed the trouble making daughter of a noble king into a deadly slumber unless the tune of a magical harp was played to wake her up. He then locked a handsome prince into an iron stove, before a lovely Princess broke him free. Furthermore, he turned the prince into a talking iron stove himself. He tricked a young farmer into buying magical beans to help his family, and tricked the noble king into lying to said farmer so he could retrieve the harp from a giant to save his daughter.
He spent around tormenting people, until he was threatened by the Wolf Man to take away his powers if he didn't help him capture a woman in a red jacked and her book.
Likewise, he decided to bring back to life a puppet of a childless toy maker in hopes to capture the mysterious lady and her book.
Anthony Pierson (The Puppet boy)
Story: Pinocchio
Character: Pinocchio
Once upon a time, there was a childless toy maker and his wife. They couldn't conceive, so they spent their time making toys for children. After his wife passed away, the toy maker created a wooden puppet lad to become his son to cope with the grief. A mysterious fairy Godmother took pity of the man and brought the puppet to life. Sadly, the puppet boy wasn't exactly the greatest boy and had a complicated relationship with his father who left him, and the boy became dormant and bitter. Years later, a witch brough the puppet back to life with the promise he could make him a real boy and take revenge from his father if he helped him capture a mysterious girl and her story book.
Sadly he didn't expected that the fairy godmother that first gave him life, also curse him with his nose growing if he lied...nor that he would ended up falling for the girl (and vice versa), and wanting to help her quest.
Sadly the Wolf Man and the Witch aren't to happy about this...

It turned out that the lad was trapped because of a wicked witch wanted revenge from his father, so she used a feather she carried to open the Iron Stove and free the prince. The two eventually became friends and fell in love, the prince proposed and they became engaged. However, the princess father was not thrilled with the idea of her daughter marrying some iron stove in the forrest, so he gave away the Prince's location to the witch that cursed the prince.
The witch turned the Prince into a stove, and the princess ran from her kingdom and father to help her lover return to his original self.
She eventually realized there was hope as Seven swans told her and her lover to find blind prince, a widower, and a benelovent queen to guide them.

-
This took longer than expected, but alas I still got some more cast to create and work on more picrews as I got a lot of drawings to get done + Picrews help me visualize better and honestly I kinda don't want to get full designs of so many characters yet.
Anyways, I've been brainrotting lately about this fairytale AU, which kinda helped me bring back my energy and love for HP once again.
For those curious about what Charles looks like a stove as the curse does take time to break, here it is:
He has eyebrows and his mouth shaped into a smile when he needs to. The Au of course takes into the angsty side but sometimes we need a bit of comedy to lighten up things up + honestly I could not resist the stupid urge to make this a thing
Ask box is always open and I would be thrilled to answer your questions while I work for the next batch!

Daisy ref (Unreality au)
Trigger warnings for; mentions of violence and gore, body horror, injuries
Daisy Danger is one of the four main character puppets that was on the puppets old show "Mortimers Handeemen", that was cancelled horrifically in 1990
Daisy has been the one taking care of the warehouse after the fire (and the final incident with Owen) destroyed a majority of it.
She has also been the one trying to keep her siblings in check. She has witnessed both the downfalls and upsides of them all. However doing all of this, taking care of the others and having witnessed them at their breaking points does bear a lot of stress on a person.
This stress has lead to and added to already existing anger issues. And in most scenarios inanimate objects, hosts and even Riley's sock puppets suffer during those moments. But even after that it's a hassle to clean up, especially when the sock puppets are alive and their insides get everywhere
Luckily Riley stopped making them. So this hasn't happened for a year or two
She talks with Nick the most, as he's the only other one who was around most of the time until recent times.
She has a decent relationship with Mortimer, Daisy being the only one Mortimer somewhat was open towards. Especially after he and Riley became more distant towards each other
Daisy and Riley have an iffy relationship, Riley respects Daisy and Daisy is trying to help Riley, as well as trying to encourage her to fix things with Scout, however it's not always best for them to be around each other when they're both in a foul mood.
Scout has a good relationship with Daisy and sees her as more of a mother figure than Riley. (Daisy is technically her aunt)
The affects of the "curse" are inspired by the title of the GHOST song "Housewife Radio", you will see why when you read
Physical reference
Daisy doesn't have too many changes to her original canon design but there are still things to be noted
Head + neck:
There are cracks on her forehead and it looks like someone smashed it into her head with something. Miraculously it still holds to this day, but it's always visible
The hair is made to look and feel real, same with the other puppets hair. Hers is one of the more complex styles of hair so naturally it gets messy, but it's a somewhat easy fix
Her mouth is shut whenever she's speaking due to her voice coming from a speaker. It never opens upon speaking or using her voice at all. She is still able to open it to eat though
Her eyes can open like normal for the most part. So there aren't really any issues there
Arms/hands/shoulders:
Daisy's shoulders are covered in a couple small but deep cuts, but they're usually always hidden by Daisy's sleeves. It's unsure how they got there, but it's best not to ask her about it.
A small portion of Daisy's right arm is burnt due to the first fire to take place at the studio. The burn damage starts from over the elbow and goes down to her wrist.
Daisy's left hand is what controls the settings of the speaker for the most part. Each finger controls a certain setting
Ring finger: channels/switching through channels
Pointer finger: frequency
Pinky finger: microphone on/off
Middle finger: speaker volume
Thumb: radio on/off
Her left hand has metal rings around the fingers where the joints connect to the hand
Body/Torso:
Daisy's body type doesn't really change that much from the Canon game design. She still looks the same aside from the changes from the curse. Although she is the shortest out of the Handeemen (5'5).
There is a speaker built into her chest, one that looks like the ones you see on those music speakers at dj parties. Except. Smaller.
The speaker object can be removed from her chest and used as a microphone, while still being connected to the inside of her.
When it's removed, whatever connects it to her chest appears to be distorted black wires with black goo dripping from them. Her eyes also change from having an eye color to being completely white.
In this stage her mouth is able to be moved, but she still cannot move it. And the longer it's open then the more it may start bleeding
There are a whole bunch of scars on her upper back, and no one is sure what caused them, but it's assumed it was from her fighting off aggressive hosts and Riley's sock puppets.
Legs:
As like everyone else, she has robotic attachments to get around
Clothing:
Most of the time she can be seen wearing her outfit, or variants of the outfit as a default. Mainly red or pink
There's a preference for feminine wear on her side. A majority of her wardrobe would be dresses that she either…legally or illegally obtained
Other facts:
She's an Aromantic lesbian, and is engaged to a trans woman named Mitsuki
She's still an excellent baker as she was on the show. She's taught Scout her own skills
Minus the part where she has…turned hosts that fight with her into pies.
Definitely 100% organic meat pies
In a technical sense her heart is the battery for the speaker. So it will live as long as she's alive
If it breaks though she'd be mute until it was fixed (it can be fixed but it's a complicated process)
It's also assumed that the "antenna" or signal source for when she uses the radio is her own brain. Her autonomy confuses everyone, including Riley
A lot of these ideas were created with both @silent-bull and @/thelocalvampyre
