I just want to make an appreciation post about @frillsand’s Actor Wally AU.
The original story, created by Clown, revolves around a fictional 1970s children’s TV show that never existed. It’s presented as an online archival mystery, where the colorful world draws you in while fragments of something darker are sprinkled throughout. Clowns project is haunted by absence. We don’t fully know who Wally or the cast are because the story is currently incomplete. It’s a world driven story with characters used sparsely.
The Actor Wally AU is, in many ways, the opposite. Instead of a bright surface with darkness hidden beneath it begins with darkness and characters while asking you to find the light in a bleak situation. Wally is a fully realized character with complicated, flawed, and deeply human tendencies (despite being a puppet).
In the AU, puppets and humans coexist, but puppets are unambiguously discriminated against. Wally’s friends are his safe space, and his fierce love for them becomes both his strength and his flaw. His desire to protect them crosses into control when Howdy leaves to become a soldier but Wally’s fear and codependence pressure him into giving up that future. It shows how trauma can transform care into domination without overtly telling the audience how to feel. You could argue that Wally’s actions are sweet, harmless, or straight up controlling, and honestly, you’d have a solid stance no matter which angle you take.
As they move to the city, the discrimination intensifies. Wally comes to fully grasp the brutality of the world they’re in. He chooses to shoulder the ugliness himself, becoming a martyr who sacrifices his own emotional wellbeing to preserve his friends childlike innocence. But in doing so, he also denies them the agency to grow and face the world on their own terms.
His methods become darker and more desperate. He blackmails a human producer into funding his dream of creating a children’s TV show where his friends can thrive in a controlled environment. When discrimination persists despite their success, Wally turns into the archetype of the “intolerable diva.” A label historically attached to marginalized performers who, in reality, were simply refusing to accept second class treatment in American entertainment. He becomes both shield and sword for his friends by bullying human staff, fighting aggressively for respect, and ensuring no one can harm his community.
It's unambiguously a hypervigilant trauma response from discrimination, previous exploitation, and (possibly) SA. When your identity is marginalized, survival often means becoming the “difficult” one. Any resistance to oppression is often cast in a negative light but sometimes it’s the only light one has. Wally’s inability to “turn it off” when genuinely kind humans enter their orbit speaks to how deeply this defensive identity has fused with his sense of self.
Meanwhile, his friends (the very people he’s trying to protect) begin to feel the weight of his control. They love him, they understand the horrors he’s endured, but they’re not blind. They see how his aggression has reshaped him, how their relationship now comes with unspoken rules and eggshells. Some have lost opportunities because of his need to keep them close, safe, and contained. This is an emotionally honest portrayal of how trauma doesn’t just scar individuals but reverberates through entire communities and relationships.
The Actor Wally AU paints a complex picture of a marginalized figure navigating an industry that was never built for him to succeed and what that does to you. Wally’s character embodies the double edged nature of personal survival and the cost of self-imposed martyrdom. He’s not a villain, just a person whose love and fear have grown tangled.
I relate deeply to this version of Wally. The way trauma can make you sharpen your edges because being soft was never safe. I understand his friends too. Watching someone you love change, realizing you have to shrink yourself to stay close, or losing a chance at something bigger because love and loyalty pulled you back. No one here is evil. Just complicated.
Anyway, incredible work, truly.
I’m so GLAD that the plot made sense to others and I wasn’t just crazy. I was so confused on whether or not people were understanding cause I’m not a great writer
Thank you for this, it was so validating to read it in words :’D
Hi, I hope #frillsand can hear me. I'm currently trying to draw his character, the actor Wally, and understand his anatomy. I'm not doing very well. I only understood his facial anatomy, hairstyle, and eyes, but the rest of his body proportions aren't working out for me. I hope that when he hears this or reads it, he'll give me some tips on how to draw this anatomy correctly, because I'm having trouble. I've only drawn female anatomy, but never male. His actor Wally has mixed anatomy—it's both female anatomy and childlike male anatomy, which confuses me a bit. I think I'll have to go to Raevka again to get a book on anatomy, and I'm just in the city. Oh, how hard it is to be an artist 💔
@frillsand
I’m never consistent myself so I don’t mind if other have a preference on his physique. His clothes make him look more frumpy but he’s mostly flat surfaces and lines. Nothing too detailed or curved unless that’s your style
His torso is almost the same length as his head, usually ends at the waist
I think he’s 3’5 not including his hair, I don’t remember. I also included head and eye references for those who asked earlier but I forgor
I’m out of practice, sorry if it looks different
I don’t study anatomy and it shows 💔
Kayy byyyeee :>
I’m joining Artfight this year :)
I’ll be prioritizing revenge attacks, I’m hoping to get everyone
Here’s my user if you’re interested, I’ll be following back
Thank you byeeee
Congratulations to the winners 🎉
I saw so many characters and I was even more impressed than I thought I’d be. Thank you to the entries that included their lore, it was fun to read about the characters
Honestly I could make every entry canon if I wanted to, they all, surprisingly enough, don’t clash with each other
I couldn’t decide on my favorite. I’m not trying to be nice when I say that every entry had something that I’d consider to stand out
I had a super hard time I had to break out a scoring system to sort them out
To make things fair, if I favored you before I saw your entry(mutuals/friends), I had points taken away. I don’t trust myself to not be biased . I also would not lie, they’d probably win
I managed to settle on 8 people who had the same highest score. Which made it even worse cause I had to choose from the best ones.
Soooo I left it up to chance :)
Because no one can tell me what to do, there will be 3 winners for the oc contest.(yippee)
HELL YEAHHHH FIRST WINNER
VERY HAPPY WITH THIS ONE @keyinsideafreesia10
SECOND WINNER @beneri-core

Actor Wally Needs a Hug
Actor AU by: @frillsand
This was my first time drawing Actor Wally and I'm a sucker for hurt/comfort scenarios. Also I saw one of the newer Actor posts and immediately thought "GIVE THE BOI A HUG"
Eve wouldn't refuse giving her comfort guy a hug.

Hmm also, should I repost entries as they’re submitted??
Question
How do we feel about an art contest?
Yay
Nay
Winner gets a drawing of their choice.(it’s all I got 💔)
Though I’m not doing AU stuff like I used to . I still remember the happiness I got from it and I really appreciate everyone who was here to enjoy it too. I wanted to give something back even if it’s just this.
Depending on how many people would want to, I could add another contest with a different category to give others a chance
Fandom died down so there shouldn’t be too much competition hopefully . It’s won’t be just a skill contest, I’m looking for a vision, passion,ideas
I’ll sort out the details if I end up going through with it
I might Color this one! >w< 💕✨
