This is my newest lbp oc named Vagabond Jinglejangle or The Dreamer by most craftlings!
They're a dreamer that didn't leave the Imagisphere just yet and wants to stay, going as far as to be in a symbiotic form with the violet titan (the violet titan is a character from my little big planet au)
they are themed off of maladaptive daydreaming/escapism and how much they don't want to return to the orb of dreamers despite it risking yet unknown consequences
most creator curators are nervous about their prolonged presence since no dreamer has ever stayed that long before

Time once again for posting at Midnight so I don’t lose my idea or sanity, so here we go. I just thought about my Sackboy Dreamer AU with 4 Players and went down a rabbit hole with some of the unused lines and DLC regarding Scarlet’s time as a Knitted Knight. From the cutscenes and the few fan creations I find online, there’s the fanon headcannon that Scarlet knew and fought Vex when she was younger. I decided to take it a step further. More under the cut:
For my version of Scarlet, she did earn being a Knitted Knight on her own and had her best friend plush knight that brought her luck, but I believe when she got older, she did join a group of other Knitted Knights and formed friendships with them as well.
Because I like parallels and angst, the three knitted knights that were Scarlet’s close friends parallel Sackboy’s Dreamling friends.
I do not have ideas yet on two of the knights, but I do have ideas for Faith’s parallel, a sackboy named Pique (He/They).
Pique starts off as the quiet, kind, and compassionate artistic sackling who also dabbles in scientific experiments. He loves telling stories and singing songs to the sackfolk.
He is also childhood friends with Scarlet and they would play Knitted Knight games with her plush and his Vex plush.
One day (like a month or two before Vex is prophesized to come back to Craftworld), Pique gets an idea to break the Vex cycle. He believes that everyone deserves a second chance (even Vex) and that nightmares are essential. He feels sorry for Vex and wants to effectively prove to him that dreams and nightmares could coexist without terrorizing one another. Pique wants to do experiments with Uproar and Dreamer Orbs to see if there’s potential to his plan.
Scarlet is wary like Pique has good intentions, but she believes it’s more complicated than that. Then again, she also feels a little bad about Vex, so she reluctantly supports her friend.
Just like most horror/science fiction stories, Pique experiments on himself so that his body and stitching are laced with Uproar. At first, everything is fine. Pique uses Uproar on quests and to save people, becoming a popular knight.
However, there is a slow corruption/transformation as he progresses. It starts out small like a little outburst or getting an inch taller or a little teasing. But then it evolves into arguments and getting carried away into battle. One time, Scarlet and the other Knitted Knights had to help Pique when he outgrew his home and got stuck.
While this is happening, Vex gets closer to resurfacing and he gets wind of one of the Knitted Knights becoming Vexed which he wants to use it to his advantage.
I read on the wiki that there are lines from the Knitted Knight trials that when Vex was in Loom in the early years, he was trying to steal all the stories. Didn’t find the voice line yet, but that helped me a bit.
So Vex somehow approaches Pique in his dreams or alone and manipulates them to help him steal the stories of Loom, claiming that the storytellers were hiding something.
In the middle of the night, Pique transforms into a being like Vex and pulls a Pied Piper with his singing, kidnapping the Storyteller Sacklings. I believe Pique’s vexed form is a dark King Knight motif.
Scarlet and the two Knitted Knights are on the scene. They are surprised about Pique. Vex makes Pique attack their friends. Angst angst angst. The rest is like one epic battle over another and they defeat Vex but while Vex is fading away, he takes Pique down with him and takes out Scarlet’s eye.
Present day, Scarlet feels guilty and has kept Pique’s Vex plush with her own. When she finds out about Faith’s encounter with Vex, she is internally freaking out and tries to keep an eye on the situation while trying not to alarm Sackboy.
One last thought, but I have the idea that Pique is in the Uproar secretly helping Faith out while basically getting revenge on Vex/redeeming himself from his mistakes.
