Procrastination AU

A behind-the-scenes blog for the Xiaolin Showdown AU, Procrastination AU. Expect to see sneak peeks, deleted scenes, artwork, misc. info that won't fit into the fics, and more! Current status: working on the season 1 finale!

THIS IS A PINNED POST (Please read!)

I'm realizing that modern tumblr is REALLY bad for the way I've laid out my blog so here's a pinned post with some basic info and important links!

This is a sideblog for the Procrastination AU, which is what I call my big Xiaolin Showdown fanfiction project I've been working on since 2014 and posting since 2019. Basically, it explores how the show would have looked if Jack hadn't opened Wuya's puzzle box when he found it and instead opened it seven years later. The AU can be read here on AO3!

Here is an about page that explains a bit more about the AU, and HERE is a tags page to make navigating the blog easier! You may want to check out the character bios, art, and meta tags especially!

This is a side blog, and any follows/replies will come from my main @noccolibroccoli.

Thanks for reading! Enjoy your stay!

WAIT OMG DID I NEVER POST A BIO FOR CLAY?!?!?!?

[procrastinationau]

been a while since we had a character bio! I'm doing them in watercolor now because my tablet pen crapped out on me. Anyway.

NAME: Shadow

AGE: ????

OCCUPATION: Kimiko's new bestie :)

LIKES: Bugs, the color purple, attention

DISLIKES: Goody-goodies, being ignored

SIGNATURE MOVE: Popping up in unexpected places

BIO: Much like her name suggests, Shadow is slippery and insubstantial, vanishing just as suddenly as she appears. Who is she, really? Where did she come from? Whatever her true motivations may be, she seems to have attached herself to Kimiko for now. Which is probably a good thing, right?

hey guess what

it's six sentence sunday

(also, the next chapter is pretty much done, i just need to edit it)

“Awk,” observed a crow perched on a nearby lamppost. “Shut up!” Kimiko snapped at it. “Nobody asked you!” The crow fluffed its feathers and stared back down at her with blank, beady eyes. “Great,” she muttered under her breath, jamming the phone into her purse. “I'm arguing with birds now.”

CHAPTER 2 IS WRITTEN

i literally wrote like half of it in the last 48 hours lol wheee

[procrastinationau]

and NOW

it is EDITED

[procrastinationau]

AND NOW IT'S POSTED!

[procrastinationau]

Since the subject of XC characters came up!

These are the (scrapped) concepts for the procrastination AU versions of Ping Pong (who would have just gone by Boris) and Tiny Sim. who is now not so tiny. more Greasy.

Ping Pong would have joined up with Kimiko’s team out of a deep admiration for her, and Tiny Sim would have teamed up with Jack. I don’t think I had many plans for them beyond that? They weren’t in the AU for too long before I decided to cut them.

Ping Pong would have been 14 or 15 I think? And Tiny Sim was gonna be like 17.

anyway i drew them together bc they both had hoodies.

[procrastinationau]

so basically everything written in this post is no longer true, because when I decided that I was going to include Boris after all I completely changed my approach with him. (also i still don't plan to include tiny sim lol)

BUT if you're wondering what he looks like, I didn't change much about his design from what I originally came up with. He's basically just his canon self but taller. And he keeps his hood up.
