Occasionally I send stupid asks about characters with memes. (Stupid in topic, given said characters do not have access to memes as we know them.)
Sometimes I make dumb jokes about the game.
But I am so proud that the only AI I will ever willingly use is a random number generator.
So all the various degrees of chaos and angst are all me fuck yeah!!!!
“After episode 80, Odd’s senses of smell and hearing were permanently made stronger/sharper, as remnants of Kiwi’s DNA were left behind in his DNA.” (submitted by birdface94)
“In his spare time, Odd does Parkour.” (submitted by detective-olivia-stabler)
“Odd is a furry.” (submitted by anonymous)
“Odd stopped telling the group about his future flashes because he has always been a bit psychic, and his Lyoko powers only enhanced his natural abilities.” (submitted by anonymous)
“Because of his metabolism, Odd really isn’t affected by caffeine. Ulrich was shocked when Odd downed an entire hot latte and didn’t zoom around or go crazy. The only side effect is on Lyoko, where his form vibrates as though it was affected by glitches. However that is only temporary.” (submitted by anonymous)
Okay, what if Jeremie and Aelita were helping Xana with his materialization at the same time that Jeremie was helping Aelita?
i was starting to type up a reply and then I realized I wanted to explain the logistics of this AU first and so have a lot more headcanons than I planned.
- It’s kinda-canon that XANA went evil because of a virus, so here he either never got infected or he successfully fought it off. Either way, he never rebels against Hopper, and instead welcomes Hopper and Aelita to Lyoko when they hide. They spend a couple days waiting, expecting the worst.
- XANA and his monsters like Aelita; they play with her and entertain her. But he and Hopper argue. XANA keeps asking “Professor, why can’t I just kill these pesky humans hunting you?”. Hopper, the ever pacifist, keeps explaining why it’s morally wrong to murder and then resorts to explaining logically that killing them will just bring more men. XANA counters “So? I can kill them too. I’m the most powerful being on this planet.” It goes in circles.
- Eventually, Hopper decides he’s going to leave to find Aelita’s mom, who he never gave up on after all these years. He never said it, but looking after Aelita restricted the options he could take in looking for his wife. But now she has a safe harbor, so he can fully dedicate himself to bringing her mother back.
- Hopper still doesn’t really trust XANA not to go overboard while he’s away, and he doesn’t want Aelita to be sad. So he tells them he’s gonna shut down the computer until he gets back, that way they won’t notice time passing. He doesn’t tell Aelita that he’s got any fears, but he privately tells XANA to protect her in case things go wrong. XANA scoffs and says he would have done that anyway.
- Hopper leaves and the computer is shutdown. Plz take a moment to imagine sleeping Aelita either cuddled up with monsters, or cuddled up with an avatar XANA made. Or both. Thank you.
- Things go wrong because of course they do, and when the computer is awakened ten years later it’s not by Hopper, it’s by some random kid with glasses. Aelita’s disappointed but welcoming. XANA’s suspicious as hell and constantly grills him. “Who are you? Where do you come from? What are your parents’ jobs? Where were you June 6 1994???”
- “XANA he’s not with the men in black.” “How do you know that??? We should kill him just to be sure.” “OMG XANA NO.” “Fine.“
- Jeremie still crushes on Aelita and wants to rematerialize her, and here it wouldn’t be hard because XANA never stole her memories. That’s what was giving Jeremie difficulty in canon. But she’s hesitant because a) she wants to wait for her dad and b) she notices XANA looks a bit sad at the thought and realizes he’d be lonely. So she says she’ll only leave if they can materialize XANA and find her father.
- And that leads to the plot of the show’s first season. Working out how to reverse-engineer the virtualization process to make codes -> human and also find out what exactly happened to Aelita’s dad.
- Aelita and XANA help Jeremie program the Skid three seasons early so they can literally search the Internet for info about Hopper. Ulrich, Odd, Yumi, William, and Sissi all eventually get recruited to help.
- Less combat, more espionage. Most of the combat would be in the real world by virtue of XANA and Jeremie tag-teaming and getting Teleportation out early. The Lyoko Warriors would be infiltrating government buildings, locating databases to be hacked, and investigating Hopper’s past with Project Carthage. Their outfits would probably include masks this time tho.
- XANA and Jeremie still hate each other, especially since they have to work together all the time. Jeremie because XANA talked about killing him to his face, won’t stop rubbing in that he’s the better programmer, and lives with Aelita. XANA because Jeremie’s unnecessary in his opinion, keeps making buggy programs, and wanted to take Aelita away.
- shit did i just make a love triangle.
- Speaking of, the UYW love triangle is GONE. Eliminated. Ulrich and Yumi are still in the “nervously flirt” stage in this first season, but in later seasons would actually hook up. Then they would face struggles as a couple because overcoming them is just as important as becoming a couple. Ulrich and William compete but that’s because they have naturally clashing personalities; William admits he did once like Yumi but respected it when she turned him down.
- The first season ends with Lyoko being invaded and everyone learning a horrible truth: they’ve been hitting the wrong target all this time. Hopper wasn’t captured by the government, but by an organization called the Green Phoenix, and has been forced to reproduce his work. The Green Phoenix has been kidnapping kids and training them as child soldiers so they can conquer Lyoko and eventually the world.
- The Lyoko Warriors have finished the programs to materialize XANA, but if they do the monsters would disappear and Lyoko would be defenseless. They can’t just shut down the supercomputer because the Green Phoenix would still have their version of Lyoko to wreak havoc from. XANA reluctantly decides to stay to fight them, telling Aelita and the rest to just leave. Aelita snarls that her father is in danger and he’s her friend and she is NOT quitting. Cue the rest of the Lyoko Warriors chiming in with agreements a la season two’s ending.
- end season one.
DAMMIT I WANT TO WRITE THIS NOW
My brain says if they carry a device everywhere, that character is autistic and uses an AAC.
Random Code Lyoko HCs
Not dead yet! I have nothing better to post and I have a headache so I decided to screw around with some CL HCs while my brain gets back in order.
most of these are about Aelita oops
The kids are all budding film fans, having a great enjoyment of the power of film as an art form. They like to head out to their local cinema once a week when not preoccupied.
I've played with this idea previously but I think all five of the kids are big fans of Studio Ghibli. Yumi grew up with their movies and the boys learned of their existence through critical acclaim and started watching their works frequently. Aelita, as I mentioned, was introduced to their films through Yumi and found herself loving them just as much.
Everyone in the friend group likes springtime a lot - except for Odd, who has some terrible hay fever problems.
Shortly after Aelita's materialization, during a free night with no XANA madness, Odd took the gang out for pizza. This was Aelita's first time eating pizza and she was in love - it quickly became her favorite food.
In terms of pizza toppings, while all five of them enjoy pepperoni, Jeremie, Aelita and Yumi enjoy pineapple pizza while Ulrich and Odd despise it. This has led to a great many instances of bickering - Yumi calls these incidents "the great Pizza Wars".
As time went by, Odd found himself developing an interest in children's writing. He's always enjoyed making people laugh, and he soon found himself wanting to share laughter with people around the world. With his friends' help, he's started to write numerous wacky and silly stories with an emphasis on comedy, and telling those stories to some of the youngsters around the group.
I've talked about this before because of my AU, but the kids are skilled singers and musicians. Jeremie in particular is talented at singing, piano and guitar, though he doesn't like to make a show of it. Sometimes he and Aelita will spend private time having intimate little jam sessions together.
The kids all love amusement parks - though Odd is somewhat prone to motion sickness (though he still loves the thrill of a good rollercoaster despite what it does to his stomach) and Jeremie dislikes most of the faster rides. Oftentimes, on amusement park outings, Jeremie takes Aelita on some of the calmer, gentler rides so the two can share romantic peaceful moments while the others blast through the more exciting and stomach-turning rides.
Having grown very used to flying after being given wings on Lyoko, Aelita wants to try hang gliding someday.
I stated this before but I feel like over time, Jeremie would grow more comfortable with being openly affectionate towards Aelita, and thus the two can often get adorably (and a bit disgustingly) sappy and romantic in the post-XANA era. Much to the aggravation of their friends lol
Taking my AU out of the equation, I feel like Odd is the most likely to be a My Singing Monsters player
Post-series, William has difficulty fitting in with the group, but Aelita is openly friendly to him and Jeremie doesn't mind him. William finds friendship in Aelita and even Jeremie to an extent, and Aelita is helping the other three grow better used to him.
Once Sissi became better friends with the group post-series, she decided to try her best to treat Aelita better, and occasionally invites her and Yumi for girl hang-outs. Sissi likes painting Aelita's nails!
Aelita found herself getting addicted to Google Street View after Odd introduced it to her. (She's just like me fr) She loved wandering the world and seeing the sights. Whenever she sees something especially funny or neat, she excitedly tells her friends about it.
Street View also sparked a desire to travel the world in Aelita. Jeremie hopes to get a good job so the two can make money to travel together when they grow up.
Odd definitely picks up some of his sense of humor from the internet's dumbest jokes as time goes on, to the frustration of the boys + Yumi and the confusion of Aelita who has no idea where half these jokes came from or why they're funny
I'll end this post off with a cute one; Aelita has volunteered to walk Kiwi for Odd. She loves that cute pupper, and Kiwi loves her back! Aelita loves spending time with Kiwi, he helps keep her spirits high even in her roughest times!
the she-ra reboot makes this video relevant again which means we are in the best timeline

it's too bad that oleander and raz don't interact too much together. especially since they combined minds and raz helped him out with his trauma. this drawing is a conversation between the two of them. it's nice to imagine a heartfelt one on one "thanks" from Coach to Raz. or as heartfelt a grown man who was pent up to that point can express towards a kid who helped him.

hilarious how grace is wandering around that aircraft carrier thinking i'm just a guy. meanwhile his security clearance is technically on the same level as the actual eva stratt herself
#phm#in the book he's like#'my office is technically a storage closet. they're gonna kick me out of here when we resupply. i'm about as important as toilet paper.'#man you live on a boat. how many other people on the boat have an office at all.#you're the guy who looks at the paperwork and signs shit that's not worth bothering stratt over#which you can choose to interpret as either not very important or VERY IMPORTANT INDEED.#you're the guy who says 'yeah i think this plan is scientifically feasible'#to which stratt says 'okay my pet scientist says it'll work‚ let's go ahead and pave the sahara.'

As a trans woman I can confirm that they indeed found an ancient forest inside a 630ft deep sinkhole in China
cis people can reblog this but keep it on subject, please
Happy pride month everyone always remember that the sinkhole has an ecosystem large enough to house not only insects but likely several species of small birds or mammals

these relationships are always increasing numbers as well. so obviously we need six eleven to mean somethimg
imagine if that's the date it finally happens
