KS (Kyarascuro, "chiaroscuro" + "キャラ") is a large-scale crossover AU that incorporates several well-known video game based pieces of web horror/unfiction... Owned by me, Alan, but also co-owned by my friends Noelle (Idi) and Mateo (Equinotix...)
You can read all the KS-based works on AO3 here.
The wiki is still a work in progress!
General TWS for this blog: suicide, kidnapping, violence, abuse, cannibalism, & the police
more info under the cut + tag format/guide + asks n stuff
So what's in this crossover, anyway?
The main web horror works that KS pertains to are:*
*none of these line up 1-1 with their canon counterparts, sort of like an au within an au... which is part of why its so hard to explain
Sonic.EXE (relinquished)
Petscop (pressedyes)
NES GODZILLA CREEPYPASTA (Cosbydaf)
Wii Deleted You (Nuclear Blue)
Blood Whistle (???)
Some other notable works such as BEN Drowned (Act 1 only) are part of it too, but not notable enough to be considered entirely derivative.
How do tags work?
Trigger warnings are "#(blank) tw"
Since KS is a trilogy, each part gets its own tag.
KSR1 = Rancor
KSR2 = Redamancy
KSR3 = Reminiscence
Each character gets its own tag, and the year the original post was made will be tagged too.
Sometimes groups of characters/ships get their own special tags, "#catacombs trio" for example refers to rainer, brendan, and cole (if in the off chance i ever did draw ship art of them the tag would be different because their ship name is different. polycatacombs anyone)
Noncanon art will be tagged. If it's not tagged noncanon, assume that it's canon.
"#wiki media" refers to all wiki contents.
What about asks?
I'm more than happy to answer anything without spoiling anything. Please do not ask me any NSFW questions regarding KS and its characters. It's inappropriate, not what this work is about, and it's also written with the accompaniment of 2 minors
If you want to send an ask without your url attached, just attach that to your question and I'll just quote it. Do not ask me to turn anons on, I don't like anonymous questions and I like doing things the hard way
been having a lot of ideas for ks lately and developing it in my free time which is why i havent been as active anywhere. uhhhh i might private 1-UP (the blood whistle rewrite) soon and repost a different version of that too since im not too happy with how Brendan is characterized in it and in a way, the scope of the project has changed.
i promise this won't become a theme of me constantly taking down my work and redoing it, i don't like doing it at all, but kyarascuro is so much more fleshed out than it was when i was writing it on a whim that i don't feel like i can cohesively follow up what i already have. once again this is a passion project with no monetary backing so it isn't the biggest deal in the world but i figured I'd say something rather than Not
ill say sometime this summer is when you will really start seeing content come out. this is what you will have to look forward to:
1-UP / Alan's Blood Whistle will be written from the ground up all at once and will have scheduled chapter updates
KYARASCURO: RANCOR will be rewritten and updates will be slowly but surely rolled out
Secret Third Thing still in development
thank you if you're patiently waiting to see what i am talking about at all even! i hope you can continue to extend that patience since i am a real person who can't dedicate all of her time to working on her bullshit (but it would if she could.)
as a treat here is this weirds fuckings things i found in my friends photography class and now own. his name is jeremy
instead of writing kyarascuro i just draw nonsense about it and you have to extrapolate the very intricate ways in which these three interact with and feel about each other
this is my evil fanart for the guy from blood whistle okay? he had a family that loved him and his life was consumed by the game forever and ever okay? hear its cry okay?
mind the poor quality of the screenshots here, but here are some previews of the kyarascuro wiki so far. I thought it'd only be fair to provide a bit of an update for it considering I havent posted much about it at all.
the link will not be provided due to the wiki being unfinished, outdated in some areas, and also because there isn't enough canon ks content to warrant it being out there. also this is kind of a joint project between two people
a bit more info under the cut, if you like internet horror this might interest you:
kyarascuro is, for the unaware, a 3 part crossover fanfiction about 3 dead guys coming back to life. the wiki is there for posterity's sake as I want to get the characters in it across but I also feel like I lack the writing skills necessary to have it just be in the fic. basically, it's supplementary material.
there are 23 characters (2 are on a minor characters page) included so far, 3 pages describing the setting which will be updated over time, and soon a page with an overview of each part and its contents.
the wiki also contains its own original creepypasta. I will not be going more in depth because it is being rewritten!!!!
check my pinned for a link to the AO3 upload of the canon material
i am not currently looking for additional editors. when the wiki is made officially public, I might open up the articles for editing or add a comment section (somehow.)
