Miriam would get along better with the mystics.

You....

You right

Scaredy cat tried to take a bath but some skeksis walked in there and so she stayed in the bath up to her neck for way too long bc even if one or two left others would come in. She’s also avoiding looking at anyone bc they are naked. Eventually there’s a gap and she sprints to her room in a towel. They did it on purpose too. The peeping toms were mad when others interferes but they all wanted a chance to mess with her/see her naked. After that she only took quick baths when all were asleep.

She is beyond mentally scarred and honestly she needs a lot of therapy after all that has happened.

Okay so I'm heading to bed

But before I do, here's some(crappy) lineart of my favorite scenarios(reader x yandere!skekzok and homeless reader x skeksa), skektek being wooed(by someone who isn't me I swear *sweats*) and of course dear, sweet, and very unluckly scardy cat reader, because it seems like everyone and their fizzgig adores her.

(I can't draw skeksis so plz forgive me orz)

Put with the other gourmand asks please: he keeps saying things as he feeds her creepy things about how sweet smelling and tender she is and how he wonders what she tastes like and she’s pale bc she thinks this dude is really gonna eat me and then he says something that makes her blush beet red and realize oh god he means a different kind of eating. She points to a spot behind him says “look over there” and sprints back to her room. The others think it’s the funniest reaction yet. He sulks.

(Put with a smaller one about Skekayuk just being creepy to poor scardy cat reader)

Nobody lets him live it down, and poor reader is just hiding under her bed as she gives the tiniest scream in fear.

Good thing she's gonna have that army of fizzgigs later on. She needs to be protected.

In relation to the fizzgig ask: skekmal actually walked past her bc she and her scent were hidden by fizzgigs and the had no time nor inclination to deal with the scream pile. Emperor had enlisted him to find scaredy cat so he just keeps looking elsewhere. Not today thank you.

Protected by screaming furballs.

Skekmal doesn't get paid enough for this

Snow Whi- I mean Scaredy Cat and the seven Fizzgigs!

Next Disney reboot everyone

Watch the drama as the evil emperor tries to remain fairest in all the land.

(Scardy cat's new look inspired by the lovely @languor-em 's version!! (Still fangirl over that fan art aaa 💜💜💜)

Imagine scaredy cat running through the forest and when she stops she finds a fizzgig. She thinks “this is the fLUFFIEST animal. I love them” She jumps when it yells at her but then she starts baby talking to it and turns out it likes that and being pet. She is petting it and it’s the best thing she has experienced since she came to Thra. She falls asleep and wakes up covered in fizzgigs. Happiness.

Sorry my hand slipped-

what would the girls be like if they were split like the urskeks? the crystal and the world itself is insane like they could be split by the darkening or the crystal by accident. i imagine there be difference but i think thra would split them into a near skeksis and urRu but little difference compared to the urskeks were a skeksis is innovative active flawed and an urru is peaceful conceptal thinker also passive i think the lucky split would be a random brag bag of traits that set them apart.

(I’m feeling better atm so I think I can answer this one well enough)

(also I assume you mean readers, though they are all gender neutral save for Emmelyn(female), and I(genderfluid so either male or female)

In truth it would be a bit jumbled. When the Urskeks split, it was when the crystal was pure, and they themselves were trying to purify the evils within their souls. 

So, putting this into perspective, a darkened crystal would certainly bring about a different outcome, or maybe similar. I’d assume the split would be by accident more than purpose, so whatever the reader was thinking would heavily dictate how the split would be like(So if one wished they were stronger, one half would get all the strength and the other would be all the traits that they see as ‘weak’)

The way the Skeksis and Urru look kinda remind me of Thra itself, so  I would fathom a guess the human splits would look similar to some being or two similar to thra itself…whether that means similar to skeksis or gelfling I’m not sure.

Maybe they look pretty similar to their original selves, maybe not. I’ll try to draw some concept arts if I can (or if others can because you guys are far more creative in that department)

As for what the babes would be like if they were split(I know they would not have their memories, but I assume they would still hold quirks that came from their past and memories, though they wouldn’t know why), I’m going to go with the conventional Urru/SkekSis split-

Emmelyn: Her split would be based upon her caring nature. Because of this her ‘skeksis’ half would take on the more destructive and protective nature of it, to near suffocating for the ones she places her protection over. Her temper would be short and anyone who dares hurt or tease the ones she’d protect would get an earful

However, her Urru half would be a lot calmer, wishing instead to help better the ones she cares for. She would hold a protective nature over them, but in a more subtle, self sacrificing way. She’d go through fire for them, and basically be a parental figure to all the others.

Morgan: Skeksis half would certainly be more like a pirate, ruthless and brutal, enjoying the life’s pleasures, unabashed, and nearly obnoxious. They’d drink until drunk and shout songs at the top of their lungs until they lose their voice

Their Urru half would be more reserved. They would be as tough as nails but also take pleasure in the smaller, easier parts of life. Instead of sailing or adventuring they’d be swimming about pools of water, soaking up sun, and living their best life

Miriam: probably one of the more similar to their original self before the split. The ‘darker’ half would probably be more snarky, less afraid and more willing to speak out. This side probably tends to hide in the darkness well and notice every little detail of the world, but maybe not the people themselves. 

The ‘lighter/urru’ half would be pretty much good ole’ scardy cat, but with a lot more fear. They’d hide often and be a bit overly fearful of the world around them, but a master of hiding and being undetected. This side would be better at reading others, and their voice would be so soft it would sound more like the wind.

Aarya: Honestly I feel like their illness would be the main reason for their split, since it has taken up so much of their life. 

What I mean by this is- One half would be all that feared and loathed it, the one who grasps for life, for a cure, for anything to allow them to survive longer, and live like a normal being. They’d probably also try to ignore it, going about their day as if they never were born with it, even if it causes them to faint and fall terribly ill.

Their ‘good’ half would be the part that fully accepts it, knowing it will happen and all they can do now is accept it and enjoy the life they have now. The most in tune with the world around them, they would appreciate all the simplistic parts of life. Probably would give the best advice as well, full of knowledge beyond their years.

Talliesin: Their skeksis half would most likely be rather…loathing of life, for its wrongfulness, for what it had done to them.For the split, for the fact they are connected to another being that looks similar to them but isn’t. They are bitter, and tend to grumble and sulk more often than not. Their music is harsher, and can send anyone into angered frenzy if they wish

Their urru half would be similar to Ursol, but instead of being able to control thra, they would influence the emotions of others- Their music can comfort, heal, bring safety to those who are scared. They would be a parental figure, similar to Emmelyn, though they would be the one to cheer them up, bring them happiness.

Artemis: Strength would be both halve’s strong suit. The Skeksis half would be more of a war like being, enjoying the thrill of overpowering their enemies, but would also tend to bully anyone who annoys them(SkekSIl). They always enjoy proving themselves to be the strongest, and will constantly get into any and all fights to show off their strength.

Their UrRu would be much calmer. They would still be strong, but they’d inherit their calmer nature, the playful and chill side. They would often help out with lifting things, but they’d prefer enjoying life and such than constant battle. 

Both sides are still Ace AF

and Ariel(me, I’m not sure if you wanted me or not but others have so why not?):

To put it simply…since I’m me and not a character, there’s a lot more aspects for me to consider(especially when it comes to childhood trauma and mental illnesses)..but i’ll try to simplify it the best I can:

My skeksis half would be the one to internalize all the hatred and abuse taken, and instead throwing it back onto the world with a roar. I’ll make this one a he. 

He, would most likely be the most chaotic, strong but uncontrollable. He hates seeing weakness and refuses to allow himself to feel sorrow or pain, which only worsens his own conditions. He has a hatred for being talked down upon, or ordered around, which leads to a lot of misbehaving and punishments. When he is belittled or talked down upon, made to feel weaker or insignificant, he will snap, roaring and willing to rip out the throat of the one who spoke to him like that. He would have constant anxiety, yet ignore it. He’d probably have all my bad coping mechanisms, and a constant fear and thoughts of death, always weighing upon his mind. He is, however fiercely protective of the ones he cares for. He will inherit all my fighting and strength

My Urru half would probably be rather…bad as well. She’d have my depression and other problems. Anyone who raises their voice at her will send her into a panic, curling up and crying for forgiveness. She doesn’t know *why* it sends her into such a panic, but it does. She always doubts herself, always feels like she isn’t good enough.

She if often within her own world, her mind being her main solace, and when not, often contemplate life and death and what it means, maybe if anyone would miss her if she left… She would certainly inherit my musical and acting talents, preferring to make music about fantastical worlds than fight. In fact, she would hate fighting. She would be a pacifist at heart. She would care for even the smallest of animals, crying if they perished, whether or not if she could help them or not.

One thing bother would share is their hatred of being alone. That’s when the darker thoughts creep in, and Urru me would often seek out another to hold and hug during the night, if not she’d awaken shortly after from a nightmare or unable to sleep. SkekSis me would try to ignore it, not wanting to show this weakness, even as the thoughts grow darker, even if he awakens after a nightmare and is trapped in sleep paralysis.

He if often moody too because of this, given he barely ever gets sleep.

Probably one of the few Urru/Skeksis that kinda hate each other but would almost certainly cling to the other once together.
