Whirlpool Puzzles in this au went a little crazy for a different reason.
This world is a parallel to Smg4's correct? Well, someone had to parallel the YouTube arc, and who other than the TV man himself! I'm gonna throw some lore under the cut, along with the speed paint! Apologies on the quality of it tho.. Procreate was mean.
---
Puzzles was a boy who had run away from his home. Some of the final words from his dad that clung to him were: "If you hate it here so much, why don’t you go find a princess to live with. I’m sure that will be perfect for you”
He had traveled, until he made it to a kingdom of his fantasies. He met a plumber, "Luigi! It's a pleasure to meet you...uh.. What's your name?"
"Amil.." He hated that name. He hated it so much, but he had nothing else to call himself.
Luigi had given Amil a new home, a home that was a bit run down due to how old it was. But it was fine. Plus Luigi came and helped Amil fix it up and learn more about him.
-
"Oh! Wow learning about you is like trying to piece,a puzzle together!" Luigi laughed, adjusting his glasses before grabbing the dice and rolling them.
"A.. Puzzle?" Amil was confused, fidgeting with his gloves a bit. He watched as Luigi moved his piece across the game board.
Luigi smiled, looking at Amil "Yeah!! Because, I know things about you, but there are clearly pieces I'm missing, as if they're lost never to be found!"
Amil took that conversation and made himself a new name.. Puzzles. If he was like a puzzle, then that's what he'll call himself.

Cut forward to the Waluigi arc, Puzzles had watched from afar. Something about it excited him. The rapper arc? Well.. It was.. There I guess.. But the next one. The one that truly amazed him. Bowser. Bowser had finally had enough and took the Princess, Mario and Luigi.
Puzzles was amazed by the fact that Bowser was able to get all of this attention... From the protector of the world..Smg-LU/Luna. Plus Karen, Bob, Axol, and even the cops? All of this just for the Princess.
If Puzzles could do something like that.. Get the princess's attention, Everyone's attention. He can finally be seen. He could make the world like the ones from Tv. He could make it perfect.
So Puzzles planned. While everyone was going after Bowser, Puzzles had been working on a new head for himself. If he wants to make the shows from his head real, he has to look like the thing that inspired them.
He tested that head by connecting wires into his neck, seeing if the expressions would line up. He did everything he could so that way when he put it on for the first time... He could be himself. Not the person who looked like his father. Himself.
-
The day had come. It had been a few months since the arc with Bowser. Puzzles had made his way on top of a hill.
He was acting out a show, by himself. He was gathering a crowd. Perfect. Someone in that crowd stood out to him. Luna. She was the protector of this world, as everyone stated. She was one person that Puzzles wanted to see. The moment he saw her he knew her friends would soon arrive. And he was right. Peach.. Bob... Mario.. Axol... Boopkins.. Karen, her kids, and even... Bowser.
He saw them and got himself ready. He started laughing as he spoke.
"Good day everyone! As you can tell, I have talent for making shows. And so do others in this world. Others like Waluigi, Bob, and even you, Bowser. Oh and how can I forget our dear princess! She's the star of all these shows! She gains all of the attention. Isn't that right my dear viewers? Now. That star won't change. It never will. But! That star can be borrowed... And I must say, it's long over due for someone else to have that star"
"What exactly are you planning here?" Luna had spoken up, walking through the crowd, despite the pull back from Axol. "All of those people you named that you said made a show.. Well we ended that show. And we can end whatever yours is to"
"Oh my dear Luna. You don't understand.. Their shows were weak. Lack of a proper plan. They didn't do their research into who the other side was! But I did.. And now..."
Puzzles had picked up the tv head that was sitting behind some props. He started to hook the wires hanging out of it into his neck. A click with each connection, followed by blood... He had placed the final wire, not just bleeding from his neck, but his mouth as well.
He held the tv up and yelled, "NOW IT'S TIME FOR A REAL ₴ⱧØ₩" his voice glitched out at the end, his laughter sounding just as insane as he looked.
He brought the tv down onto his head, the screen black with a spinning spiral, the colors being red and blue, and a yellow mouth on there as well, matching the expression he had. The screen flickered as it showed the new face of puzzles with a crazed expression.

Well anyways lore done for now! Does this get into his arc? Nope! But it sure does start it!!!
One thing as well, this arc is definitely inspired @michealscorneroftheinternet 's au Change in script!! I love the au sm so ofc I took some inspiration :]
Smg6! But with a slightly different look, because! I'm working on a design for Smg6 in this world! But to be fair this is pretty much what he looks like, minus the wings, grey stuff, and yellow eye!
With this au, of an au I suppose /silly, I was thinking that Smg6 was with 3 and 4 when they became the vessels. So all three. Six, unlike the other two, does not have a guardian link, however they do have magic.
This magic never quite worked right before, and they have to be even more cautious with their new form. The errors are from moments where they.. Weren't exactly- thinking. The more they messed themselves up, the more the error spread. Eventually Six got ahold of it, the errors stagnant for now.
--
Now for the reason of possession:
Smg6 had seen Smg3 and Smg4 posses people occasionally, more so recently. So, Six was rightfully curious if one of them could posses her. She was going to ask Smg4, but realized her clothes might end up ruined. Six worked too hard to make them for them to get ruined! Six then went to Smg3. He agreed, but they made a deal. Six had to keep half of the control, as to make sure Three wasn't stupid with her body, and her magic. Three had something on his end, but Six hasn't told anyone what it was. Wonder what it could've been?
--
Sketched design for six Unpossessed under cut
--
I was possibly thinking that the star/diamond would be a conductor (in a way) for six's magic. As if it helped him control it better? I'm not entirely sure lol
And bc the original design/au I had for six more leaned on snake elements, I thought I might as well keep em!
So after getting a redesign: His fangs and ears got longer, he has a snake/split tongue and produces venom. The snake tail and eyes!
He's also taller! Around 6'7 I believe?
Also! Congrats on 200!!!!!! AUGH I need to do smth myself for 200 too! /silly
She works best in the dark, her body blending into the shadows. This is her second form, her first is more Anthro, like her normal self. But she often stays in this form at night, it's more convenient
-
(This is bound to change btw)
Basic lore: >reworking<
- (TAS master post >here< for those curious)
-
Her mouth is hidden, but when stretched open this is what it looks like! (Even on her Anthro self)
More of an idea for her Anthro self (but put clothes on her lol) and where her body splits!
Credits to @grimsundae / @grinnames (I couldn't remember which one to tag sryy) for the au!!
So I decided I'm doing my take on a Royal smg4 au, I'm gonna call it "Royal Cards Aligned"
Lore is bound to change but here's a basic idea of roles:
--
Smg4: Prince, -soon king of memes? The pink are still scars. No igbp did not happen, another event due to magic caused the scars, they're much like burn scars when first gotten
Smg3: Prince, soon king of -- tbh.. Idk? Would it be dead memes? // Him and Smg4 have a peace treaty after a few month long war their kingdoms had. However, the prince's are getting close
Wren/Meggy: Princess Meggy, and King Wren. Their kingdom is much like western spaghetti. Meggy acts as a daughter for Wren in this world
Smg1/2: Kings of the toy toy kingdom (they are not be married, they have their own potential partners {heheh.. Bomg1 😦} ) // Smg2 is missing
Puzzles: King of Creativity in the 5 star kingdom (you bet his ass named it /silly)
Mario: per request of Queen Peach in case of emergency, he was made king of the mushroom kingdom as Peach mysteriously went missing *two years ago.* // He is under supervision of Smg1 and Prince Luigi, especially as he gets closer with Puzzles
Smg0, and Niles: Mysteriously missing too. Their kingdom in a panic, as one of the knights poorly helps rule (Bob) // They went missing before Peach and smg2
--Smg2 went missing before Peach
I am open to questions on this if anyone has any!!
Ok! So to explain why Smg6 has magic other than just the meme guardian magic ( @nxva-blogz here you go /silly and heads up, you said I could Yap... So I definitely yapped a lot)
--
Smg6 had encountered Puzzles one day when he was just walking around the city. Six found him in an alley way, since both of them were trying to somewhat cool off in the heat
Puzzles and Six got to know each other. After Six slightly threatened them since he knew about Puzzlevision and was only told bad things about it. Six eventually made a small deal with Puzzles: "Tell me what you know about the crew Starlight, and I'll tell you what I know" that was Puzzles only request, that got full filled.
Six found out about Western spaghetti, his side of Puzzlevision, and even Peach's castle. The castle caught his attention.
"What do you mean it's still.. Alive?"
"The demon had never left, it just corrupted the area. Why do you think Smg4 and his crew have the showgrounds now?"
So.. A couple weeks passed. Six thought of a show he could do with Puzzles help, since he's the one that could do the whole... 'Trap them in a different reality' thing. But first.. Six needed to know if that castle could actually become a demon. One he could use. And if it didn't work.. He'd have to rewrite his whole idea.
Puzzles had arrived at the castle, waiting on Six. He was running late... He wasn't answering his phone either.. What was he doing?
Once both were at the castle, Puzzles did something that confused Six (this part is pulled straight from the fic)
"You have some sort of magic right?"
Six thought for a moment, suddenly remembering an old conversation he had with Smg1 and Smg2. "Oh! Yeah? mean, if there's an Smg5 it's supposed to work with them though. don't think mem-"
"-Come here" Puzzles sighed and reached over pulling Six closer. "Here" Puzzles waved his hand around Six's, a small glow surrounding their hands.
Six looked back and forth between his hand and Puzzles. "The hell did you just do?" Six continued to look at both, very confused.
Puzzles laughed at his reaction. "I gave you some of my magic, I know, shocking I have any."
"You did what now-" Six stared at his hand for a moment.
"It's not enough to use on your own, like the meme guardian stuff to. Itll be better if you have some sort of source for it. Right now, that will be me. Otherwise? I'm not entirely sure myself Starlight." Puzzles nodded.
"Huh...Ok.. good to know..?" Six took a mental note, he'll probably forget it when it's important though...
-
Now that Six had magic. He saw the demon get created. He didn't need Puzzles to make the show! Right? He could do it himself now that he had the same magic as Puzzles!
So, one day, Six wanted to try and control the demon. Puzzles had mind control abilities to a point right? So Six could do that just fine with it too!
He got to Peach's castle. He stared at it from above. "Let's hope to God this works.. Or I'm trapped down here" Six jumped down.
He got down there and saw the demon. He was a bit frightened to say the least.. Everything down there looked.. Cursed.
Six attempted to use his magic. Nothing happened.. Ok maybe he was doing the wrong one? He tried again. A green glow had appeared. There it is. That's the right one.
He put his hand up toward the demon, trying to focus but everything around him was making it hard to. It's as if the magic caught onto his emotions and just... Failed. Leaving scars in the areas it touched his skin
(Bit of extra: the Magic is normally centered around his chest, so he can "channel it" somewhere else, but its always around his chest/back)
Six had collapsed for a moment, the demon, surprisingly not hostile came up to him and just sat there... Like a big dog.
It took him a couple hours to fully get used to everything, but in this time he got to know the demon.. Even name it. He named it after the thing it sourced from. Kamilo. A name meaning perfection. Was Kamilo perfect? No.. But Six had grown fond of the creature.
Now, he tried his magic again, but with permission from Kamilo. Once it was given, he tried, way more focused. He succeed. But instead of control, he was able to understand and influence Kamilo. It wasn't like what Puzzles did in Puzzlevision.
And here's what Kamilo looks like as a reminder:
It can shift it's form, more eyes, and even more horns, but the face stays the same.
And this will be reblogged to @anitcasks-n-lore lol since that's the official account for this stuff now! (I'd just thought I'd post it here and then throw it at that blog
This is for the Au, The Ai Strings, co-owned by me and @fandomgoesahhhhhhhhh
This is gonna be a small thing with Luna, Comet and Marty. All the respective lore will be under the cut, ref sheets above cut, etc etc let's get on with it
--
Marty! But make him an Android :]
Luna! Or, Smg-LU. Smg-k's link. (As a reminder, their avatar is Karen) and their existence was actually inspired by @bear-boi-5 and @libbytwq aoxhaofbos
Comet!! Who is also an Android! But inspired by p.Ai.nter and Cyn
(Yes both Androids took inspiration from the game Detroit Become Human bc that's all I think of when making ai/robots humanoid lol)
Anyways lore time!
𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲
He still follows the same story as cannon. But with Cole added to his side. Does Marty like Cole? Not really.. But Marty makes due with him and his.... Miss use of weapons.
Before the "We must kill Mario" video, where it's discovered he can talk, he had someone working on a new body for him. A real body. Not just some cardboard cut out. He could express himself, not have to have someone there by his side because he can't do something. He had made Smg-K, or better known as Kiara, make the body for him.
Kiara had used random spare parts from her Usb, and other things to make it. She had made the Android body before the video. But they were testing out a voice for Marty before he upgraded. They wanted to make sure he could get the hang of something small before upgrading him entirely.
Once they did he didn't do much, as he stayed in his "home" to adjust to the body. Meanwhile Cole did his own thing... With Lucia and then dealing with Saiko. Marty didn't care to know what was happening, wasn't his problem.
-End of Marty's section... For now-
𝐒𝐦𝐠-𝐋𝐔/𝐋𝐮𝐧𝐚
She's from a different version of the smg4 world. The one Kiara was supposed to be sent to.
The world Luna resides in is much calmer compared to Smg4's. Any events that were caused by Mario in Four's world, didn't happen in Luna's.
Characters such as Wren, and Peach and some others are most likely still alive as long as the cannon counter part's death wasn't caused by Mario.
One of the major character changes is Puzzles. Their puzzles never went as... Insane. He had a small moment of insanity before Karen and Luna had stopped it. Getting Puzzles redeemed in that world. The next? Mario. Mario is not idiotic, unlike his counterpart. He keeps up his antics with Peach, acting much like the Movie version of Mario.
Luna loved the world. She had found memories making sure it was safe and that her family was happy.
She eventually was given a sentient ai by puzzles, his excuse being "I was trying something and it worked too well".... If it worked too well shouldn't he keep it? Whatever.. She didn't care, but she suddenly had a small Usb in her hands. She took it to her Usb/pod. She plugged it in there, letting it come to life in her pod. It introduced itself as Comet, the name given by Puzzles and Peach. Peach was with Puzzles? Hm that was a new one to Luna.
Weeks had passed and Comet had pointed out that there were parts in the Usb that could be used to make it a body. So after a month or so of asking Luna caved, giving Comet a body. A body to the design they wished for.
Once it was made, Luna had been told by Comet to leave it next to where Comet's original Usb was. And to leave the pod for a few days. Luna hesitantly obliged, leaving Comet be. Once she came back she saw Comet in their new body sitting on the floor making clothes for themselves. Something felt off about Comet's look as well, as if Comet somehow adjusted something themselves.
After months of Luna and Comet hanging out with everyone, Luna was being told by Comet that they were getting a pull outside of this world. It took a lot of convincing, and a lot of searching from Comet, they eventually left their world and made their way to Smg4's.
A lot happened, but that's for another post. What's important:
Comet had met someone, forcing Luna to come meet them as well. Marty and Cole. Luna knew it was definitely not Cole who she met, because it looks like Cole was also there by force.
Luna got to know the two. Discovered Cole's poor weapon skills. She then taught Cole how to properly use a gun. Let's hope she doesn't regret that.
