Oh an idea for an AU (sorry in advance for the English and mistakes I wrote it in one go)

Masterpost

So it all happens after the first clash between the ancients and the beasts.

One night while pure vanilla writes letters to gather all his friends in the vanilla Kingdom to talk about their discoveries in Beast -yeast a sound in all Crispia breaks the peace of the night, the ancient together with gingerbrave and his friends run outside to hear a strong unnatural cold wind.

the sound is sharp and reverberates from the dark cacao Kingdom to the crème republic,

While gingerbrave, strawberry and wizard cookie listen confused, Pure vanilla suddenly begins to be tired and is hit by a strong dizziness in the head before passing out on the ground struck by a deep sleep, while his soul jam shines before turning off.

In the following days everyone tries to wake the ancient with no improvements, not understanding what could have happened letters arrive from the other kingdoms where they write that the other ancients have been affected by this perpetual sleep.

What they don't know is that it also happened to the beasts. And while our heroes and the cookies of darkness try to figure out how to wake them (each one for himself of course) meanwhile the beasts and the ancients are stuck in a dream world with only their respective counterparts.

With each couple left alone to face this unknown world they are forced to collaborate.

over time their bonds tighten more and more intimately, living as they can in this strange and unexpected place the ancients resent as if they were young again, while the beasts live the carefreeness that they have never been able to have since they were created.

The sleep keeps them stuck for years, living there in the dream, it was not easy but it was fulfilling together with their counterparts.

One day they wake up, And none of them take it well.

And what do the beasts do at that point? They run to their ancients obviously

ps. none of the beasts or the ancients know that it is a dream

[l-mop]

Reading Sabriel right now, and I really like how necromancers can just kinda dip to the river styx (and literally leave their dead body behind) whenever they feel like it. Imagine the comedy potential. Imagine the funny ragdolls.

[wrnxiety]

I would Iike to request more lore for the dreamland au (or whatever you wanna name the au)

Like, how many years did they spend in there? What are the relationships like? And you said that the beasts immediately ran to their respective ancients once they woke up, how did the ancients react when they awoke though?

How many walls got broken that day and how many panic attacks were had- /hj

Honestly I didn't think this idea would be so popular 😅

However I haven't thought much about the details of their relationships yet (also because I'm not very good with these things).

But to answer the other questions:

Ours would remain in a coma for more than two decades approximately.

After awakening as I said the beasts literally went crazy, and escaped from the laboratory in the total disbelief of the scientists and the cookies of dark who were completely unaware of where the beasts were headed.

While the ancients had a much more painful awakening physically and mentally, in fact unlike the beasts with their bodies monitored and almost new, the heroes spoke more slowly after awakening, in fact they had motor problems and above all with the awareness of the space around them, not permanent.

Then yes, the heart attacks were many that day you are there keeping watch and you see one of the 5 beasts that after years comes at full speed towards your city, fear is the least.

Mystic flour has literally crossed the sea of ​​licorice from Beast yeast to the kingdom of dark cacao, climbed the walls and roofs of the citadel while the soldiers and watchers threw everything they had at her to stop her from getting to our dear king.And when she found him dark cacao he didn't say anything except to open his arms and hold her tight as she ran towards him.

Shadow milk flew at full speed in the lands near the kingdom of vanilla ended up crashing at the gates of the palace and jumping in pure vanilla who had literally dragged himself out of the room for him as soon as he heard the alarm. With great concern and confusion on the part of gingerbrave and company.

Burning spice ran across the burning sand to the golden palace creating a huge cloud of sand behind him, breaking walls and avoiding Golden cheese's treasures until he reached her room. She called him and wrapped him in her wings

Eternal sugar also flew to Hollyberry's kingdom causing panic among the citizens, and gliding directly through the queen mother's window, Hollyberry caught her laughing.

Silent salt cut down any trees or plants that got in the way in their race to the fairy kingdom, obviously dodging as many warriors as possible, the knight knelt down next to White Lily's bedside, the latter weakly melted in his arms.

And to be precise, it was neither the witches nor the soul jams themselves who put the beasts and heroes to sleep

That's all for now

[wrnxiety]

Lmao, so, basically waking up goes;

Beasts: adrenaline rush of the century

Ancients: waking up like they got blackout drunk every night for a straight week

Fr tho, I love that it makes sense that the ancients have a harder time adjusting because the beasts have had to deal with it before (the tree) and were essentially gods /hj, while the ancients were normal cookies before the soul jam stuff

And yeah! the aus interesting! I mean, they spend 20 years in a coma/dreamscape and then, all of them at once, suddenly wake up, and now the beasts and ancients have a bond because they basically lived out a 2nd life with (only)eachother but no one else knows that or wtf is going on, like the reactions must be priceless chaos it's very inticing, to me at least

Part of why I want to (slowly) continue this au is because it's extremely fun for me to imagine everyone's reactions to the beasts and ancients acting like an old married or loving couple, :

smoked cheese: my queen he ripped off her wings!

Golden cheese sitting on the beast's lap drinking and using it as a throne: I know I was there

Then yes they will explain but the beginning is weird for everyone

Oh shit-

1.) Imagine, The Times: In chapter seven, Steve Turner expresses three main points. First, he narrates how the changes in the cultures throughout the span of time have led to misconceptions about Christianity and christian art. According to to Turner, the view of christian artist is changing to being conformists and followers of other Christians. Christian artists want to remain in the “Christian art” box for fear of being rejected by others. His second point is closely related to the first, it is that art responds to times in several different ways. Changes in technology can make it easier to present art in larger platforms to larger audiences. Technology can be used to present art in different dimensions and that should be taken advantage of. The second way art responds to times is through science, God’s ability to create everything perfect is an amazing reason to worship him and fulfill the what if. The third way that art responds to time is through politics, artists are able to create art in times of instability whether that be health, financial, marital/relational and the artist will have a bigger impact in his/her audience. Christians do not need to believe or feel like life is perfect but rather represent the truths that the world is going through and from there draw conclusions to possible changes that can be implemented.

2.) Read this interview with Los Angeles based artist Lynn Aldrich: Lynn’s Aldrich is a story that truly touched my heart. During her interview she touches some points that I was able to relate to such as how faith comes into practice as an artist, and how our art can say a lot about how we think about environmental and other issues. 

Julian Rosefeldt Video: I do not think I have ever played so much attention as I did when they were setting up the table (funny). The prayer was interesting. It was long and confusing, in the beginning I had to go back a couple of times to make sure that what I heard was what the woman was saying. And the animals at the end… sad and creepy.

Weird aesthetic art can be tripping but also fascinating.

Austin gets weirder

Artist Ellsworth Kelly has finished a recent undertaking in a building designed to play with lighting, space, and line work. I found it very interesting the polarity of reaction I experience when looking at the photos of the interior against the exterior. I find the interior to be appealing and pleasing to the eye. 

The exterior, however, really is off-putting to me. I find it very curious as to why this is. The same line shapes are used as well as spacial configuration (though one could argue that this spacial configuration being inverted is where the issues lies). However, for some reason the concave arcs with the rigid lines of the inside components is something I enjoy, while its inverse seems to be more confusing than anything else.

DARING TO DREAM: THE ORIGINS OF THE DREAM:IN PROJECT

Sonia Manchanda

Manchanda discussed DREAM: IN Project, a project that can be achieve through design. According to her, “…design is a process of transformation, it is not static, but rather develops with every connection. Every intersection is an opportunity to prototype our thoughts.”
