If I say something is canon, it's usually in the context of this AU. Unless I specify otherwise.
Will contain spoilers for the Canon!TOH Timeline, but they will be tagged. It's mostly there to compare and contrast the differences between Canon!TOH and this AU.

I feel really guilty that I haven't really posted an update in a long while, but I've been dealing with IRL stuff that I don't feel comfortable divulging currently, Even though the brunt of it has already come to pass.
I'm also currently working on some big stuff behind the scenes, specifically stuff that I can't reveal yet. I don't know when I can reveal it, but just know that I'm actively working on said big stuff.
On the stuff that I can reveal, I'll go through them one by one below the cut.
~♡☆Pride Mandalas☆♡~
I took a break from this one for a while, and it's just been on the back burner whilst I focus on other projects (and my health). I also felt like I could do a better job with making new versions of the Pride Mandalas, so I basically just rebooted this entire project once I felt ready to do so (which was around May of this year). I built up quite the backlog of Pride Mandalas, so I'm thinking of uploading them onto Tumblr, Wattpad, and Bluesky.
I might still upload the old mandalas, but I'll be referring to them as the Legacy Pride Mandalas. And I'll have to mention that they're old artwork.
~♡☆Official Family Redbubble☆♡~
Given everything that's been going on with Redbubble, I'm not sure if I feel comfortable with having my artwork on there. So I haven't done much with that site. I'll be looking into alternatives for stickers and other merch.
Currently one of the main options I'm looking into is Teezr, as it looks promising (especially with it's anti AI views). But it mostly has options for clothes, so that's something to keep in mind.
I don't know if I'll keep my artwork on Redbubble, as that's all tentative atm. So I might make a mini update on that later.
~♡☆FNAF Remix AU☆♡~
I'm going on hiatus on this project, don't know when this will leave hiatus. I might make a big post detailing the why on this, but all you peeps need to know currently is I just need a break from the project. In the meantime, I'll be working on Pride Mandalas and my other writing projects (and also the big stuff I can't reveal quite yet).
~♡☆Raven Empress AU☆♡~
I took a mini hiatus to work on my other writing projects, but I want to get back into writing for this project. I'm not sure what I can reveal for this one yet, because I want to finalise lore and work on concept art for this.
I don't really like the old writing stuff that I made for this project, so I might just rewrite it at some point. I feel like I can do a better job conveying some of the ideas I was trying to write with my current skill set. It won't be perfect by any means, but at least I actually wrote it myself.
~♡☆LBP AU☆♡~
This project fell by the wayside as well, because I was mostly working on some original stories, my FNAF Remix AU, and Raven Empress AU. But I want to start posting stuff related to this AU. Which will probably be lore bits and artwork that I've been making for this AU.
I'm working on a Pride illustration for this AU, and it involves my main main selfship. I might end up posting WIPs of this one, but I'll be working on it in the background. Don't know when I'll finish it, but I've been working on it on and off since early June. I meant to have it done by the end of June, but I was dealing with a lot of IRL stuff during that time.
I really feel motivated to work on this project, my original writing, and the Pride Mandalas. Alongside the secret big stuff. I also haven't finalised a name for this AU, but I'll be open for suggestions as soon as I post some lore bits for it.
~♡☆AOTPK AU☆♡~
I'm rebooting this as one of my official AUs, instead of an x Reader. Nothing against x Readers BTW, I feel like the story I was trying to tell with the original AOTPK would work better as an AU involving Czar Jack x my S/I.
Sorry I don't have much about this AU, I'll make a post about this AU at some point in the future. Hopefully with some basic info about this AU.
~♡☆Playing God Rewrite☆♡~
I haven't felt comfortable working on this particular story (due to my lack of motivation and other stuff I don't feel particularly comfortable revealing here), so I basically cancelled it. If any of you peeps want to rewrite it in my stead, feel free to do so and publish it.
I'm just not comfortable working on this project any longer, so I'm passing the torch on this one.
~♡☆Really Old Theories and Headcanons☆♡~
This was a really old side project that fell to the wayside. I didn't loathe working on this project, but it just stopped being prioritised (due to IRL stuff and working on other - more important - projects). It was still fun to theorise about media that I liked (even if some of it turned out to be wrong). And who knows? I might use those theories as the basis for future stories.
I might still post my old Tumblr exclusive theories to Wattpad though, because I still want to archive them somewhere. Even though some of them were already debunked, they're still interesting ideas which could be used for future stories.
I might just make separate posts (and Wattpad journals) on newer theories that I've been thinking about. I don't actually know if said theories are canon, but they're food for thought.
~♡☆Tumblr Askboxes☆♡~
I'll try to answer asks as soon as I can, but I know that I haven't really touched them in a long while. I'm so sorry for the peeps who have asked stuff a while back. I'll get to them soon.
I know that the name for this AU is Raven Empress AU, but it's because Lilith ended up as Empress. Not necessarily because I ship her with anyone, let alone Belos.
(To be clear, Lilith is Aroace in this AU. So I don't ship her with anyone in general, and she didn't marry anyone in this AU. Also I think that the basic premise is answered in the FAQ, but I'll post it here as well.)
~♡☆Basic Premise of this AU (without major spoilers)☆♡~
Belos dies several years before Luz steps foot on the Boiling Isles, and Lilith becomes Hunter’s Regent for the first 6 months of her reign, due to some extremely convoluted succession rules.
(To be clear, Lilith didn’t marry Belos. She just happened to be head of the Emperor’s Coven at the time of Belos’s death.)
I might actually end up making this canon in some form for this AU (both timelines). But the main difference is how it'll end up canon in both timelines (it's really complicated sorry).
Also, yes, Luz would literally have this exact reaction to this specific scenario in both timelines. That part will definitely be canon in my AU.
So I'm not planning on talking about IRL stuff much here (or most of my side blogs - except the personal one), unless if it's extremely important or if it directly affects how my blogs are run. I'll try to keep it contained on my personal blog (here: @celestiastarshine), but I'll only bring up IRL stuff only if it affects the blog itself.
I was thinking about posting a rebloop of someone's artwork to help explain why Hunter is the 50th successful Caleb Grimwalker, and that Belos has a journal recording when each Grimwalker was born and details about their life. As that artwork gave me those ideas.
But OP is allegedly proship. So I basically blocked them and deleted the rebloop from my drafts. Apologies for the inconvenience.
This should go without saying, but I need to make this abundantly clear. If you're a proshipper, ship Lunter and/or Empg0ld, or both, then kindly piss right off. I really don't need people like that in my life, even if it's on an AU blog of a children's cartoon.
I find those groups of people genuinely disgusting. Mostly because they all act super gross. But that's from my experience within this fandom.
(Any proshippers, Lunter/Empg0ld shippers, and anyone else under the typical DNI will get blocked. No ifs, ands, or buts.)
Hunter sleeps holding his Sprig plushie, and he's done this since he was really little. Lilith gave it to him by putting it in the crib next to him, as a gift from one of his predecessors.
(In the Canon!Timeline, it was last seen at Gus's place. Locked in his toybox for safe keeping. Once it was found again, Hunter kept it on his bed. Occasionally bringing it with him to sleepovers.)
(I'm debating on whether it'll be too big for him to hold as a baby. But I'm imagining him as smaller than the plushie for scale. Also the eyes are soft, so it would be safe for an infant/toddler under 3.)

My name is Celestia Starshine, but you can call me Tia.
What are your pronouns?
I go by she/they pronouns. But if that changes, I’ll let you guys know.
How old are you?
Yes. I’m old enough to drink alcohol lol.
What is your sexuality?
I’m openly bi and proud.
What is your zodiac sign?
Virgo Sun, Virgo Moon, Gemini Rising; and I’m born in the year of the Earth Rabbit.
What’s your DNI (do not interact) list?
It’s the usual suspects, but I’ll make a list below.
Any Bigots (Racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.)
Terfs
MAP/NOMAPs
General Creeps
NSFW Blogs (This isn’t against anyone or shaming anyone, I don’t need to see that stuff on my dashboard)
Any kind of exclusionists
Proshippers
Any other kind of shitty person
What are you willing to draw?
Fanart, original artwork, headcanons, memes, some gore, etc. If it does have gore or eyestrain, I will tag it properly. Because I know that not everyone wants to see that.
What won’t you draw?
Anything NSFW, even if it’s questionable
Hate art or anything supporting bigotry
Mechs, it’s too complicated I swear
Extreme gore
These are generally things that I’m not comfortable drawing for one reason or another, but I hope you can understand. If you’re unsure if it’s something I’m willing to draw, use the askbox or shoot me a dm. I’ll try to clarify to the best of my abilities.
What’s the premise of this AU?
Belos dies several years before Luz steps foot on the Boiling Isles, and Lilith becomes Hunter’s Regent for the first 6 months of her reign, due to some extremely convoluted succession rules.
(To be clear, Lilith didn’t marry Belos. She just happened to be head of the Emperor’s Coven at the time of Belos’s death.)
What are the succession rules on the Boiling Isles?
These are the succession rules according to Boiling Isles law, they’re extremely simplified.
1) Emperor’s spouse
2) Emperor’s eldest child (or nephew, in this case)
3) Golden Guard (Tristan, deceased)
4) Head of the Emperor’s Coven (Lilith Clawthorne)
Since Belos wasn’t married, the previous Golden Guard was killed (Tristan), and Hunter was 2 when he died. Lilith initially took over as Hunter’s Regent for the first 6 months of her reign.
Is Belos a Bastard in this AU?
Yes.
What are the ships in this AU?
The main ships in this AU are Huntric (Hunter Clawthorne x Edric Blight), Lumity (Luz Noceda x Amity Blight), and Raeda (Raine Whispers x Eda Clawthorne). There will be other ships as well, but I will put them here as soon as I figure out what ships will be in this AU.
When did this AU diverge from Canon?
Technically this AU diverged from the Canon Timeline around 400 years before the show proper, but I can’t share too many details, as it has something to do with Hunter and Corvin. Although from Hunter and Lilith’s perspective, this AU diverged when Belos died.
(This AU is still developing BTW. So some of the exact details might change here and there.)
Hunter sleeps holding his Sprig plushie, and he's done this since he was really little. Lilith gave it to him by putting it in the crib next to him, as a gift from one of his predecessors.
(In the Canon!Timeline, it was last seen at Gus's place. Locked in his toybox for safe keeping. Once it was found again, Hunter kept it on his bed. Occasionally bringing it with him to sleepovers.)
(I'm debating on whether it'll be too big for him to hold as a baby. But I'm imagining him as smaller than the plushie for scale. Also the eyes are soft, so it would be safe for an infant/toddler under 3.)
I just published Beginning of a New Diary of my story Ascension of a Raven Empress, which is a companion story to Diary of a Raven Empress. It does contain some spoilers for the Canon Timeline, but they're pretty minor. Along with mentions of a character death of a child (Tristan, he's referred to as Philip in this chapter btw. She doesn't know that he changed his name), and grief.

I'm turning off Anon asks temporarily, for my own safety. Mostly just precautionary measures, because of certain people in one of the Fandoms I'm in. If you want to be anonymous, feel free to let me know though. Or I will answer your ask directly like I would normally.
I do have a couple of big things happening this month, a funeral for Popa and an MRI. So that's why things are slower than usual, and it's the main reason as to why I'm utilizing the queue.
I've mostly been preparing for the former since February, and I still feel like I'm not ready yet. And I've been mentally preparing for the MRI since the beginning of this month.
The next chapters of my current fics (the ones I'm working on) will come out when they're ready. I can't really tell you an exact date.
I also have a couple of projects under heavy wraps, and I'll try to update those on separate posts (and I'll try to update you as soon as I can).
Apologies for the inconvenience that this has caused.
This will affect Diary of a Raven Empress and it's companion fic (and other fics related to this AU) by the way. Along with all of my other projects, not just the ones that you know about. Again, my apologies for the inconvenience.
Hunter sucks his thumb while he sleeps. Oftentimes he will actually take his glove(s) off, in his sleep, just so he can suck on his thumb. He doesn't really tell anyone about this because he's too embarrassed to admit that he still does it.
We Want Out by DAGames with Luz, Hunter, and the previous Golden Guards. Specifically the chorus. (Also yes, one thing that I like doing is recontextualizing some of my favorite songs. It's weird I know, but it's also pretty fun too.)
It's Been So Long by TheLivingTombstone with Lilith. Specifically in the context of her grieving over Tristan's death. I can't elaborate on the exact specifics because that involves actual spoilers though.
