this was a draft from 2021 that I posted discreetly and got heavily embarrassed that I decided to delete the post entirely but anyways here it is again in broad daylight for the world to see!!
my Shapeshifter AU for Sock SMP where Laff, Socks, Tbh and Joocie are shapeshifters :>
if you recognise me.. no you don't
Sock SMP Shapeshifter Au notes and headcanons
Laff
When he morphs/transforms into other appearances very often, it makes him very aggressive and snappy due to the constant pain he feels when morphing.
No one has ever seen him without his mask except for Socks when he turned Socks into a shifter.
Laff can speak Galactic (enchantment table) and gets very trigger-happy when he kills.
He tries to stay neutral and avoid violence but that doesn’t really work out in the slightest.
Somewhat of a hypocrite with his words and actions.
Still pretty much an every-man with his multiple roles as a Priest, Judge, Councillor, etc and sometimes he gets really into the role and starts mimicking popular people in the field.
Socks
Socks still has his human form after being turned into a shapeshifter (the monkey), but his original/human form is starting to get distorted and become more goopy (just like Laff)
He gets really impulsive when put on pressure and will act out of spite, creating more conflicts and problems in the process.
His shifter form starts to show when he gets really angry and would morph into any creature he sees dangerous.
He doesn’t trust anyone, even his friends that sided with him, but he’s hopeful in trying to at-least remain on good/neutral terms even if the other side doesn’t want to.
He’s scared of Laff, he knows what a true shapeshifter could do and he’s afraid that Laff would kill him (man has threatened him way too many times)
Memey
He’s gets really mad and triggered when his late wife-to-be is mentioned with disrespect and will yell at the person.
He’s also scared of Laff, but not for the same reason as Socks’, however Memey does try to bargain/come to an agreement with Laff even if unreasonable.
Meme adopted Nadwe when he was 4 but was raised in foster since Meme had anger issues and didn’t want to release his anger at the child.
Socks introduced Wictoria to Meme(yes this is canon)
Wictoria is also a shapeshifter
When Meme and Wictoria became lovers, they decided to try and raise Nadwe, but both couldn’t find a perfect time to tell the teen that the two are his family.
Blaza
He wears shades all the time cause his eyes are very sensitive, so when Laff kept asking him to remove his glasses it hurt his eyes a lot and made him temporarily blind.
His voice becomes hushed and quiet when he’s serious, and/or infiltrating/spying Meme’s team.
He sometimes uses his hoodie-cape as an umbrella when it rains(4 people can fit under the cape’s cover)
There’s always a golden coin in his pockets and he doesn’t know where the coins come from but he doesn’t complain since he uses the coins to decide in a game of coinflips since he has a hard time making decisions.
He’s the lightest SockSmp member despite being the tallest and the others only found out about it when they went to raid a pirate ship, Blaza was just floating on the ocean while everyone else drifted down into the ocean floor.
He would shake/flap his hands rapidly when he gets overly excited and happy.
Joocie
He likes to wear his snorkels and would keep it under his hoodie so he could easily grab and wear it.
The others made a lid for his glass head so his juice parts doesn’t spill or mix with salt water when they go explore the waters.
Some parts of his juice part form like jelly and looks like fluffy jelly hair sticking out of the cup.
He’s actually a shapeshifter too but he doesn’t know it, he just thought that being able to morph into any living creatures is normal.
Laff had to tell him that it’s not normal in the overworld and he should be careful when he morphs (he doesn’t listen and died from Muffin sniping him)
He learned to be cautious when morphing ever since the incident.
I lost the notes I had for Tbh💔
As a consolation for having lost the tbh notes, have these 4 year old doodles of Shapeshifter Laff and Socks
Comic where Laff and Socks disguised as each other vv
The socksmp meant so much to me back in 2020-2021. It kept me sane I didn't realize that the fandom still existed anymore. I'm sad that the fandom was most active on Twitter because it's unusable now. But seeing your art again was awesome, it's awesome seeing how much your art style has grown :]
Thank you so much for the kind words socks anon,,
Truth be told, sock smp was really the first fandom on twitter I ever really participated in and became an active member on, it has a fond place in my mind. The fandom isn’t as active as it used to be but it’s still thriving to my surprise too!!
