I made wtnv cryptid club au

It is actually based on my experience at summer camp. I was a child with hyperfixation on science and astronomy and the other kids didn't find it as exciting as I did, and there was another kid obsessed with cryptids, other children were also not very friendly with him, at first he seemed strange to me but we eventually got along and had a great summer

There were fourteen fear entities. 

That was it.

Maybe there would be more at some point. Maybe there were more a long time ago and some just faded. Maybe there were more right now. 

But they were always, always about fear. 

It had been the first thing Carlos had asked upon hearing about the beings that were now a constant in his life. The beings that had taken away so many of his assistants already (at this point it was a small blessing his surviving assistants didn’t hate him), that had changed who he was in such a complex level that he couldn't stop questioning if he was still human or if they had fundamentally changed him in an irreversible terrible way, doomed him to spend eternity living of nightmares.  

He had studyied them. Learned all he could about the entities. Thought of all ill-concieved ways to end it all and found no perfectly satisfactory solution. He knew them more than he knew most things and he was a scientist even if no one called him that anymore and a scientist knows many things.

That's to say: fear was the common denominator. There were no beings of hope or love or happiness or … community.   Fear was the primordial thing. And it made less sense than he wanted but it was how the world operated, it had always been, that meant that the Voice had to be about fear somehow. That if it was even a thing.

But Carlos was a scientist once. Was a scientist still deep down. Before and after everything. And a scientist cannot simply disregard evidence to fit his previously well established theories. He knew the Voice was real. He had proof. And now he needed to test all hypotheses, and had already called Nilanjana and Mark to try to figure this out. 

The Voice was new and it was real.

It was new and real and strong enough to have its own avatar.

And they needed to figure out what fear it represented soon, before it got stronger, before it was too late (and preferentially before Carlos was completely and foolishly in love with one fresh new avatar called Cecil Palmer that asked too many questions and was too sincere with his answers even without any eye powers involved and had the cutest smile ever) and to do that Carlos needed to shut down the small voice in his head saying this wasn’t about fear.

Community. 

As if.

if I ever made a nightvale au I'd probably make it a two perspective thing. Like Carlos's and Cecil's perspectives. Like for Carlos, it'd be horror, while Cecil's would be romance.

Like Carlos would have a crush on Cecil but he wouldn't realize, so he'd just think it was some sort of scientific anomaly caused by Night vale. "Hmmm, I feel my heart rate increase, and my face heat up when I'm around him. And I feel an overwhelming sense of safety and comfort around him.... hmmm.. it's probably just something to do with the area!" while Cecil is just hit by a truck of love when he sees Carlos.

I'd also probably give Carlos a bit of internalized homophobia while Nightvale is a very accepting and open place for the LGBTQ community. (Carlos will still be hella gay dw) But I'd probably do it so Carlos would slowly overcome it. It'll still linger, but over time, he'd be able to say no to it and keep moving. (definitely not for projection purposes, no siree).

Idk I just like thinking about them

I may have noticed your tags on the Cecil post about a radio host Dream AU and I would LOVE to hear any more thoughts you have about that. What kind of host is he? What’s his on air persona like? There’s so much possibility there…

🌒 🌓 🌔 Welcome to Dreaming 🌖 🌗 🌘

—Hello... Dreamers. The moon is high and the sleep is deep. It had been brought to my attention that many of you had reported of being unable to...sleep. It is the end of January, it is known that the sound of claws can be heard scratching as one is slipping into the Dreaming, long and sharp, keeping the sleep away in fright of what would happen if one is to let their guard down. Know that it's they wish. The Somnia Hound, it's called. Fear not, dear Dreamers. You are safe. It is merely a dream set loose, starved and searching, it'll steal your sleep, if, you let it. Close your eyes, listen to my voice, and let us meet, in a dream.

—Forgetful Lollie had called to tell us that she had forgotten, yet another, dream. Remember, without a proper Dream Catcher, all your dreams will run. The local "Wiccan", Vic, had declared he is changing his trade and now will only craft Dream Catchers. Are they good? Only you can report to us. Dear Dreamers. If you ask me? Dreams must be lured, offered ideas and praise, caught with the offer of a good story.

—On that note, the nightly weather had been chaotic, thread carefully lest you'd be swept into a nightmare.

—Sleep well dear Dreamers, dream well, let us meet, then.

#HAVEN'T A CLUE WHAT I JUST WROTE HAHAHHA i was just going to answer that Dream's radio can cute insomnia and thats all but well hahhaha #handahbea #msg #I did not read through it after writing it so yolo hahaha #dream of the endless #the sandman #wtnv au #dream #*cure

Some messy doodles for an au idea where Night Vale is on the coast instead of in the desert. tbh not much would change except the general aesthetic and Cecil can fish now.

hello! happy late wip wednesday! WTNV au?

Short Ideas

There’s a man who is indescribable standing there with a smile that is too big, too inhuman, and he’s wearing an orange sweatshirt with Josten #10 on the front that is not official Palmetto merchandise.

“Cecil!” Neil’s smile is bright and immediate as if he’d never known hurt from a family member showing up after his game. This man’s smile grows impossibly larger and he opens his arms for Neil to run into and Neil does run into Cecil’s arms.

The man wraps Neil up and twirls him around in the hug before he pulls back, "Aren't you allergic to the color orange?" he asks.

[tired-all-the-time22]

so if Cecil is also a God and he's the God of Nightvale, what about Huntokar? Are they friends?

Quick answer: yeah I think they would be friends and hang out and talk about weird night vale stuff together while watching over everyone. :)

Long (Lore?) Answer: I'm not like,, concretely sure where he would fit in to Night Vale canon right now (mostly I have just been rotating him in my mind because I like the design)

But currently the thought I am having about him is that in ep. 109 (a story about huntokar) when huntokar talks about the different cecils that she attempted to communicate to to keep the night vales from collapsing onto each other, God!Cecil was a Cecil who listened /and/ understood what she was trying to say. This would culminate in sort of a 'passing of the torch' situation where Cecil becomes the next god of nightvale via partial transfer of power. I think Huntokar would still stay a god there, but would get to take a break from consistently trying to keep night vale from collapsing, kind of like her being a watcher while Cecil is more a protector.

Also for his universe, I place this event before when Carlos comes to night vale just for funsies and because I think the dynamic between him and cecil would be interesting

+I think this cecil would also be aware of how extremely weird night vale is compared to Everywhere Else, but he loves his town very much anyways.

scarian wtnv au where grian is the local radio host desperately trying to act like he’s just-some-guy-and-definitely-not-a-watcher-like-what-even-is-that-haha and scar is the new eccentric scientist who just moved in that has magnificent, hc s9 elf-skin hair. in my vision grian wears round spectacles with a glasses chain and hides an eye on his forehead with his bangs, and when he’s upset you can almost see the shadow of wings spreading out behind him. scar actually is just-some-guy but constantly tries to use science to trick ppl into thinking he’s a wizard. of course it’s the ppl of night vale, so he’s a little disappointed by the general acceptance and lack of reaction his tricks are met with.

#scar doesn’t even wear a lab coat. he replaced it with a wizards robe. #question for the audience: which hc/life series individuals would you assign to the other nv characters? #i’m sure someone has said smth like this before bc like. it kinda just fits them lol. but hopefully not exactly like this lmao #also keep in mind I stopped keeping up w wtnv a few years ago so. i’m not perfectly up to date on the lore #grian #goodtimeswithscar #scarian #wtnv au #hermitshipping #🏜️

So I didn’t have much motivation or time today to get some art done so enjoy art in the form of literature.

Day 3: Alternate Universe

Enjoy an excerpt from the WTNV x TMA alternate universe I’ve been working on…

Carlos and I both exchanged an expression of anticipation, not necessarily worried or excited, but somewhere in between the two. Jon and I’s encounter had certainly been an odd and unexpected one. Some would describe it as a twist in a narrative, but some would have seen it coming from miles away. Nobody knows who those some are though.

My face contorted into a worried frown as I crossed my arms, tucking my knees in against my chest. That had been a really unpleasant conversation. The man had seemed so familiar, yet unfamiliar, like a face you know from somewhere but don’t remember where you saw it. A fleeting sense of recognition before a wave of doubt settles in. That’s how I felt from that conversation with Jon Sims.

Carlos took notice of my distressed state and gently placed a hand on my arm with a concerned smile, shuffling closer to me on the couch. I leaned against him, staring ahead with uncertainty. I pondered whether we had made the right decision or not by letting them stay with us. It was impromptu and I could only imagine how Carlos felt if I of all people felt conflicted, caught in a wild rush.

“What did you think of them both?” I asked, meeting Carlos’ eyes.

He hesitated briefly before answering, “Jonathan is definitely a paranoid person, but considering the state I found him in, he has every right to be. His friend on the other hand, I like him. He’s nice.”

I gave a nod, taking in the information presented to me.

“Sims is sure interesting. I can’t help but agree we’re similar. We connected in a way that I cannot put into words. Imagine it as finding another half of you that you’ve lost. That’s what it felt like, a reunion. A reunion between two halves that never knew of each other until fate made them re-combine.”

“Do you think he has the…” He gestured to my arms and I looked down at my tattoos.

Shaking my head in response, I explained what I saw in him to Carlos.

He was capable of more intentional destruction than me, but it felt locked up, unlike my potential. Everything about him had seemed guarded while I seemed more open and friendly, eye-wise. His eyes seemed suspicious of me, but also intrigued, as if I were something completely abstract. It was like he and his green, glowing mystery eyes were drawn to the unknown. Similar to a moth being attracted to the glow of a flickering flame.

Carlos nodded as I spoke, probably taking mental notes for science reasons, or something cool like that. He was always up to cool and interesting things in his lab. He was just that amazing and perfect, with his perfectly imperfect hair and smile.

“You two seem similar from an outside perspective too,” Carlos noted. “You both seem to be connected to eyes and are aware of things that most aren’t aware of. Jon seems like more of a watcher though, while you seem like more of an observer.”

He didn’t need to explain the difference, even if it wasn’t fully clear. I understood what he meant, as I usually did with these things. We just understood each other like nobody else did. Love, am I right? It’s a wonderful thing…

Now was not the time for swooning though.

Some of My WTNV/DC AU no one asked for:

Janet Lubelle: Then he goes "Janet we can't keep going like that, there's an ethics code for a reason."

Jonathan Crane: What a coward!

Lubelle: Right?! I tried to make him see reason, I went: "Carlos, the pursue of answers should meet no bounds. That what we call ethics are just arbitrary rules created because people are just too emotional over the truth and it's methods" and the absolute asshole just packed his things and left the university! He got transfered to Gotham because his lil baby fewings got hurt. People die all the time. They should be honored they died for science.

Jonathan: Exactally!

Lubelle: Well I couldn't let he have all the fun while not being totaly driven to understand Gotham. So I'm here.

Jonathan: And you want for us to exchange research pappers and text subjects?

Lubelle: Only some of those. Make it peer reviewed.

Jonathan: It'll be a pleasure.

Kevin: And the family would never ever stop smiling again, not only because of the scars they carved in adoration but because the Smilling God entered their minds and broke them until they were happy even as their house burn with their grandma inside. The end.

Joker: *amazed and a bit spooked* Say what?

Kevin: Oh! You only heard the end part! This is my favorite childhood fairy tale. Is soo heartwarming!

Joker: I like you!

Kevin: *smilling even wilder* Thank you, newcommer. *points to the bloodied spot in Jokers suit* You have a great taste in clothing!

Joker: Why, thank you. I also like yours. I'm Joker!

Kevin: I heard about you! Your smilex killed some of my followers.

Joker: *ready to fight* Oh bummer.

Kevin: No, no, it was great. I never saw them so happy their smilles were so wide. I had to try it for myself. Didn't work unfortunally. *almost drops smille* But not to fret! The Smilling God knows what He does, they were unable to smile by themselfs. I have no such a problem and need no solution.

Joker: And people say I am crazy.

Kevin: *threatning* This is a mean thing to say, don't you think?

Joker: Oh no, my new friend, I consider madness to be a compliment.

Kevin: Friend? Are we friends? I always wanted a friend. The last one gave me a letter and leaved!

Joker: *a bit too much in manipulative mode but also genuinally impressed with this random new crazy rogue* I would love to be your friend. Nay, your best friend. I'm a clown and it's a pleasure to meet other people focused in making everyone smile. What do you think?

Kevin: YES! *jumps excitedly* Best friends, please!

---

Charles: All I am saying is...

Tim: Look I am impressed you figured out mt secret identy and you're a really nice guy but I don't think Batman needs your help.

Charles: Carlos helps!

Tim: Carlos is a scientist!

Charles: I could help you with cult leaders and mystical stuff.

Tim: How many cult leaders Gotham even has?

Red Hood: Hey, theologist guy, I just found a third evil cult and I might be needing some- Tim?

Tim: Hood?

Charles: Hi. Jason.

Tim: Wait you know Jason's identity as well?

Charles: Yeah. And Robin's.

Tim: And you don't know who Batman is?

Charles: No clue.

Tim: How???

Jason: Can we talk about it after we deal with the new cult leader? We have two of those minor ones with dangerous cults every day in this hellhole and Huntress and I are the only ones dealing with it.

Charles: Is Helena okay? She and Sage were having some relationship problems.

Tim: I give up.

--

Batman: This is an emergency! There is a weird person following me around. They think they are hidden but they are not, they send minions sometimes, others they are there, they aren't tall nor short and dress with things like furry pants and a bow tie, no shirt; a rocking dress with a poncho and other odd combinations and always always has recording equipament . I still don't know the identity of this individual. But it seems to be a new criminal force studying their target and we should be cautious.

Dick: Furry pants and a bow tie? Recording equipament... Oh you're talking about the radio host.

Bruce: Who?

Dick: Me and Babs always listen to his show.

Barbara: I think I recorded today's show just in case we were unable to watch it on time. I'm sending it to you, B.

*recordings*

Cecil: The man who calls himself Batman striked again. Everyday he walks in the night, beats up people and buys a slice of Big Rico's Pizza. No one does a slice like Big Rico's. No one. As of late he again took out a normal family operation on the nightvalean area because apparently the taming and possession of too many antics is "iligal" and "dangerous". Now at first I was a defender of this new guy, yes it is weird he calls himself Batman and isn't visibly part bat but isn't it worse to define he isn't and has no claim on his heritage just because it isn't obvious? And he has a bunch of armed kids! Has Tamika Flyn not showed us we should trust armed heavilly trained kids? But that was then. Now he is attacking our comunity! Arresting and beating up members of our comunity and friends of our comunity. Shame on this Batman and shame on his heavilly trained kids and a bit less shame on his super cute and sexy scientist guy cause he is new and obviously is being tricked because someone as perfect as Carlos would never.

Cecil: On other news Waylon Jones also known as Killer Croc wants to talk with you. He wants to just talk something as friends and to apologize to your neighboor for potentially eating his grandma but also wants to discuss some more important details of your plans, he is going to do it at... my house? *reading* "nanana uh-hu Cecil please keep this friendly get along private" oh listerners, I'm sorry, it appears I was reading my personal text mensages instead of my notes. I'm so sorry. Silly me. The one who is going to visit you is Victor Zsass, he already has a scar with your name and his knife is ready, you know what you did.

Cecil: Finally the neigboorhood concil wants to inform that there is a Scarecrow attack planned for this friday. They recomend you cancel all your apointments and lock yourselfs at home with the aproved gas masks. This is of course the Gotham tradicional protocol. They do add to the protocol however that if you want to be hitted by Scarecrow's fear toxin do not scream degrading things like "Scarecrow hottie hit me hard with your fumes" nor be disrespectfull of his power by being overly friendly, simply go to public spaces and screem "I'm not afraid of you" or idealy scream "please no have mercy". If you are imnune to the toxin decorum also recomends you should pretend to be scared, you don't wanna hurt his feelings, do you?
