I know we're all talking about the namemc spoilers (they look so cool), but I also wanted to mention how great the Metro Mayhem trophies look too! You did a great job on them!
Yes!! That happened too today didn't it
Everyone go check out Impulse vid, the main trophy has a little train going around 🚂
amnesia au is a searching for / destroying a world that doesn't exist au made w some friends (beans, daisy, froag, anpan, airyal, and melon mostly i think). it takes place post canon, so. spoilers for the awtde ending for this entire post
the general idea is that instead of like. having his brain exploded or whatever happens to derek at the end of dawtde, derek instead has his brain basically totally wiped. "derek" the identity is completely destroyed alongside the king in yellow, but his body and consciousness still remain. he wakes up on the floor of his apartment bleeding from most of his face and with no idea who he is, where he is, what happened to him, how it happened, or why
the only thing derek remembers is the name avery, and he has a clear sense avery is looking for him, though he doesn't know who avery is or the nature of their relationship
all that above is in the singular posted fic about this au
i want to for sure post two other parts: avery's search for derek, and the two of them reuniting. i have a fair portion of both parts written, but neither of them is complete. i won't give too many details on those since i for sure plan to post them, but here's an excerpt for part 2 because i want to cause everyone pain forever
(i went to my friend's bday party the other day and arrived late and made one of my other friends, who had already been drinking, read all three parts. she had her head in her hand the whole time. another friend popped by to check on her and told me i was killing her)
we also have a few other random scenes beyond those parts fleshed out, but idk i'll ever get around to writing them. they do haunt me tho. some scenes for this au include...
- avery kind of unofficially moving into derek's apartment because neither of them really want to separate and derek clearly needs the support. only issue is derek's couch is too small for a person to sleep on and there's only one bed........ look im not immune okay. i'm not stronger than only one bed trope
- only one bed + avery being a physically affectionate person who nonetheless doesn't have many friends and is worried about coming on too strong and derek being someone not only wholly unused to physical affection but literally unable to remember the last time someone touched him affectionately. avery is clingy in his sleep and its awkward and desperately needed for both of them and they're not talking about it at all. godbless
- the two of them trying to go through derek's things together to find out who derek was, because neither of them really know at all. digging up old photo albums, finding journals derek hid in his closet, brute forcing their way into an old laptop. going thru his stuff together
- avery tries to help derek clean his apartment and picks up a towel derek threw over the massive bloodstain in his living room and has a moment about it
- derek physically cannot interact with anything related to the king in yellow without horrible pain. trying to watch the footage back gives him a horrific headache. he touches a copy of the king in yellow novel and faints. they find this out the hard way by avery trying to explain things by showing derek the footage and derek doubling over and avery breifly thinks he killed derek again for real
- derek's mom showing up to figure out why her son's not answered any of her texts and finds he had a guy living in his apartment she's literally never heard him mention before and she's kind of worried he's gotten into drugs or something. who the fuck is avery.
- avery's complicated as hell feelings for derek because he loves and admires him but feels deeply indebted to him but he but barely knows him. he'll always be there to take care of him and he wants to but he also feels like he has to just to make up for it all. and he knows derek cares for him but he also knows derek literally doesn't know anyone else to compare him to
- derek picking up old skills and new hobbies... he relearns the weird bullshit on his desk and how to do his fun little tinkering. his mom shows him some recipes she taught him when he was younger and he and avery try them together
- we actually had a bit about derek's mom (who we named georgia, after pooling the names of all of our aunts for a suitable name). they were close but didn't talk often because she's super busy (first responder) and he isn't a good texter, so it took her a little while to realize he was like. gone. she feels awful about it, but is doing her best to make sure he knows he can rely on her. she invites him over to check out his childhood bedroom at her place and explain to him some old stories and photos. derek brings avery to this. avery and georgia get along pretty well. she's happy to see derek has finally made a friend, especially one who is so caring toward her son
- derek is good at art now. he didn't used to be. lingering effect of the king in yellow. he paints a a landscape from avery's world (the only way he can interact with that time) and avery kind of freaks out a little in his head
- other lingering king effects: a very, very slight gold in his eyes visible only when low light hits juuuust right. and he's a really good liar/actor now. he doesn't know this is a new skill. avery can still see right thru him tho
- nightmares.... had a lot of thoughts about derek having reoccurring nightmares that he barely remembers. dreaming about the worlds, about the king getting avery, about dying. waking up uneasy with some horrible feeling something has happened to avery and having to check avery is still alright beside him
- avery also has nightmares, but basically only when sleeping alone, so it takes derek a while to realize they're happening. doesn't even notice until he stays up to late working at his desk. think we said he dozes off at his desk and avery wakes up and shakes him awake bc he saw him sitting there facedown at his keyboard and he thought derek was fucking dead and he panicked
- related. avery actually mostly manages ti hide that he's doing poorly? he mostly seems okay to derek for a while. yeah he's clearly upset derek has no memories, but he's taking charge as a caretaker and helper and derek's got enough on his plate he doesn't really... get a chance to worry about avery because he seems to be doing okay. especially when he only hears about the actual experience w tkiy from avery, and avery mostly glossed over his own suffering (stressing that derek was stuck bc he couldn't look away from his screen, but not mentioning his own getting trapped in the church for 12 hours)
- derek finds out because one day avery doesn't come over like he's supposed to or answer any texts/calls, which he's usually good about. so he goes over and knocks and avery doesn't answer, but he has a spare key "just in case" so he lets himself in. and there's dishes in the sink and laundry on the couch, but the laundry is a bit damp and the dishes are a little bloody. he call for avery and avery doesn't answer, but there's water running in the bathroom and a trail of water to the door. so he opens it. and avery is sitting over the bathtub, water overflowing, his hands dry and cracked enough to bleed, his head under the water. and derek pulls him out and his eyes are open but he doesn't even seem conscious until derek gets in his face and starts calling for him, and only then does he start coughing up water and seem to become aware of what he's been doing for the last few hours. and that's how derek finds out about the church and that avery didn't escape the king in yellow unscathed either
- we had they'd move in together after this bc neither of them really want to be apart anyway but now derek is worried avery might actually die if they live separate and avery does this again. that's kind of the last thing chronologically. there's no real end to this au since it's kind of a rest of their lives thing
- we talked about them kissing .also
that covers quickly most of the scenes in amnesia au. so. there. as you can see. she haunts me.
I recently added your Bakery datapack to my current minecraft world and it is amazing! 11/10; will recommend.
I WIN FOREVER 🔥🔥🔥
What I like the most about my own project is that it adds more food options that match the golden carrot without being too overpowered, and brings more uses to easily available items like wheat, sugar and milk
You person reading this can also enrich your vanilla experience with my silly pastries now
25+ New custom food pastry recipes and cosmetics, enriching the vanilla experience.
This is an another attempt at me singing lol
It's a cover of the folk song "The Fox"
I know I messed up with it a few times, but I liked the way the whole thing sounded so left it in.
In my personal little minecraft world, I've been trying to build stuff that I normally wouldn't build. On the left, we have a silo that is covering up my bamboo farm (Xisuma's design of course) and on the right is my greenhouse.
