Silent Hill AU for April's Dabi x Abiteth 💙💙

In this AU, Dabi goes with his family on a vacation to Silent Hill, where they all have to face their personal demons - but in Dabi's case, he has to accept that he played a role in Twice's death. He can't vehemently place all of the blame on Hawks forever, as much as he wants to, and especially because Hawks is the one who pulled the trigger, and if he doesn't accept his role, well, Silent Hill is going to keep him forever.

Abiteth is a helpful entity to him, only appearing in the Other World, or in the reflections of mirrors. She offers helpful advice, comfort, and keeps an entity that represents Hawks from hurting Dabi, sometimes at the cost of herself (very Abiteth behavior). She also lures away entities that represent other members of the League, but Dabi will have to fight them all throughout his journey.

Dabi's most useful tool - apart from being a pipe and a gun (and of course a flashlight) - is a small handheld mirror.

He gets attached to Abiteth and worries about what will happen to Abiteth when he accepts what he's done. Abiteth tells him that she will find him again.

In a game setting, whether or not Dabi is reunited with Abiteth would naturally depend on the choices he (or rather, the player) makes throughout the story!

Of course in the end, Dabi will accept his role, and when he returns to Japan, he meets Abiteth (I debate on whether or not she would actually remember him, but that ties into my decision on if she is actually FROM the Other World, or if she was a new friend he had made before the trip and the her he meets in Silent Hill is just him projecting!! Haven't decided yet).

The other Todoroki go through their own hells, but I won't get into that here.

AbiTou-ber Day 6: Hound of Hades.

This is EXACTLY what I had wanted to do for this prompt last year!! It now properly reflects my vision 😍

[airanke]

First pass concepts for Dabi/Abiteth/Touya if they were Gems from Steven Universe!!! I'm getting a little better at mimicking different styles :)

A lovely Anon here asked me what a Dabi/Abiteth gem fusion would look like, which very quickly spiraled out of control! Of course I have fusion ideas for all of them, but it will take me some time to get to those <3 (they also asked me for a lot more than just that!!!! But I wanted to show these rough concepts)

Abiteth = Pink Moss Agate Dabi = Eyris Pearl Touya = Clear Quartz

I have a tough time with simplistic styles because I overcomplicate eeeeeeeverything, but I'm pretty happy that I managed to keep these relatively simple and in line with how SU's style does coloring and body types! Fusions will come soon!! (And then I'll answer your ask Anon <3333 I have a whole storyline and shit figured out too HAHAHA).

[airanke]

I finally finished all of these!!!! General/plot info, Dance styles, fusion dance styles, fusion DANCES, and weapon preference is all under the cut 😊

Abiteth is an Earth Gem - her Gem is the pink moss agate. She is fascinated by and adores humans, especially clothes, and works on her own to protect a city from threats made by corrupted Gems (ones that have yet to be cured by the Diamonds). Her outfit used to be more billowing and flowy, but she chooses to dress herself in a bodysuit so she can more easily wear human clothes (despite the fact that she can project any kind of clothing she wants, she dislikes that she is limited to the colors of her Gem). The weapon she chooses to manifest is a battle axe that is the same size as her. Her style of dance is ballroom.

Touya is a Homeworld Gem - his Gem is a clear quartz. He is considered to be the ideal quartz soldier. For most of the time that Touya was on Homeworld he was satisfied - however, he became disillusioned with Homeworld after witnessing the level of suffering a certain pearl underwent, and fused with the other Gem in an effort to protect him. This resulted in a brutal massacre of other present Gems, before the Off Color fusion fled to a nearby hand ship, boarded it, and fled to Earth. The weapon that Touya chooses to manifest is a bow. His style of dance is hip hop.

Dabi is a Homeworld Gem - his Gem is an eyris pearl. Considered to be rather exotic due to his unique coloring, he was often fawned after by higher ranking Gems. Unfortunately, due to his rebellious and defiant nature, and after a particularly nasty outburst, he was violently attacked by Yellow Diamond, resulting in his gem being cracked. Despite his cracked Gem being fixed, the trauma he suffered causes his scars to permanently manifest. He can create flames by striking flint against his Gem, which results in surface damage on the Gem. He was in the midst of being accosted by other Gems when a quartz soldier fused with him, leading to a brutal massacre of the other Gems, then the fusion fleeing. The weapon that Dabi chooses to manifest is a shield. His style of dance is classical jazz. (Or something similar, this style may also be more accurately described as contemporary).

This was getting long so I'm cutting everything else down to their weapons, fusion dance styles, and fusion dances ; w ; /

TOUYA / DABI fusion: Black bluefire opal. Abiteth names him Han'ei ("flourishing"). His weapon is a Chakram. His dance style is fluid hip hop. Touya uplifts Dabi in this fusion.

Touya/Dabi's fusion dance.

ABITETH / TOUYA fusion: Laguna agate. Dabi names him Tadashi ("good, virtuous, kind"). His weapon is a Javelin. His dance style is the samba. Abiteth uplifts Touya in this fusion.

Abiteth/Touya's fusion dance.

ABITETH / DABI fusion: Purple Opal. Touya names him Akihiko ("autumn prince"). His weapon is a Moonglaive. His dance style is jazz. Abiteth uplifts Dabi in this fusion.

Abiteth/Dabi's fusion dance.

DABI / ABITETH / TOUYA fusion: Dragon's vein agate. She names herself Agape (ah-gah-pay; "love, affection, esteem"). She can use any of the weapons listed above. Her dance style is the rumba. Both Touya, and Dabi uplift Abiteth in this fusion.

If forming Agape when all three are unfused, their fusion dance looks like this.

If forming Agape from Tadashi with Dabi, their fusion dance looks like this.

If forming Agape from Akihiko with Touya, their fusion dance looks like this.

If forming Agape from Han'ei with Abiteth, their fusion dance looks like this.

Of course I have reasoning for why I chose these specific dances and this that and the other thing and WHY the fusions happen but I've gone on long enough!! The last thing I have to say is that I did my very best to choose dance styles for the fusions that were a mix of their parts, which is also something I tried to achieve with all of the fusion dances! IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT, PLEASE BE NICE!!

Thanks for reading all of this 💙

Gonna post this here too.

I FIXED HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THESE COLORS ARE SO GOOD AND COHERENT NOW!!!!! I felt pink + blue + gray = desaturated purples and found a gorgeous purple dragon's vein agate bracelet thing to reference and THERE SHE IS!!!

EXCEPT I JUST REALIZED I FLIPPED ABI'S GEM BY ACCIDENT SO I WILL FIX THAT WHEN I DO THE FINALIZED VERSION HAHAA!!

[airanke]

First pass concepts for the fusions!! I love all three of them actually (but they feel too simple for me...)

TouBi = Black Bluefire Opal AbiTou = Laguna Agate Dabiteth = Purple Opal

All three double gem fusions identify as male and go by he/him! Obvs the TouBi one is because both Touya/Dabi identify as male, but Abiteth takes a back seat in her fusion with the boys and uplifts both of them (this is especially true with Laguna Agate, she wanted Touya to know that he was important in a fusion too <3)

And yes, TouBi is the tallest hehe <3 (he goes by Dabi though! I have no idea what the Abiteth fusions call themselves atm, no I don't want to go the Stevonnie route xD!!! I'll figure it out). Abi def calls Dabi "Tobi" to make him chase her tho <3

Don't worry, in the final fusion, the boys uplift Abiteth because she does her damnedest for them <3333

Abiteth meets the boys AS Bluefire Opal, and at first has no idea he's a fusion (lil baby Earth Gem who was soooo far removed from everything else was EXTRA CONFUSED to see such a HUGE GEM TOO)!

So about that kiss @darling-starry-rose~

Jaina needs some rest -- like what I'm saying is, she should sleep with Abiteth.
