#some clarification

[moon-scented-chamber]

Just to point out- the instas, or hers anyway, weren't private to begin with and both of them were tagged using them in old pics. That's how people know them lol

So you did a reading and saw a reunion between K & H, did I read that right? That fits since apparently someone tried to book her and she wasnt working. But can I ask....most readers say they won't read her because she's a private citizen, how come you do? And how come your readings are vastly different on HK than the other readers that have read them?

Okay but they've changed names and pfp multiple times on top of switching to private. Why are people still, to this day, stalking them obsessively? I knew about the tagging in pictures but yeah, it really doesn't make it okay to keep stalking (harassing?) them, multiple times a day (not implying you do that btw, just in case; I know it only involves a small pocket of the fandom but it's LOUD).

How tf do people know when she's not working? I can't 😭 Now that's harassment because if I read that right, people send her messages pretending they want to book a tattoo appointment, just to get her schedule? This is insanity, I hope everyone sees that!?!

Now, some clarification:

• most of them do read her, they just don't do it publicly

• I've never actually done any reading on her alone (yes, zero)

• I don't read on H & K like I read on H & C: I read on H & C regularly, consistently

• even without reading as regularly about H & K, I started noticing patterns. Truthfully, most of the time (like 99%), I'm just reading on H and I see something that makes me wonder if it's related to her or C, like a reunion (as I've said before, I believe they do see each other as much as possible and there may be some co-dependency so it can get confusing...)

• I don't know if my readings are vastly different; what I do know is that I'm staying open to anything! As I've said before, I'm not trying to prove anything, I'm not making my cards say what I'm not seeing and I truly try to pick up my decks as unbiased as possible. And I think I'm doing pretty well with the number of things I've "anticipated". I've made a few mistakes, obviously, but so far, I haven't been wrong about a lot (I'm sorry, that's very #trustmebro of me but I mostly have handwritten notes and I'm not about to post screenshots of my additional random chaotic notes just to prove a point; it's perfectly okay if you don't believe me. I'm only a stranger on the internet and that's how every tarot reader should be treated (minus the insults).

So i may get some questions about shadow vlad and Jordan.

Well the idea of shadow vlad and Jordan actually came from the Duck tales Reboot with Lena and magica. I liked the idea of Jordan being like Lena and plasmius in his new shadow form to have her help him get his sweet revenge on jack Fenton like magica did to Lena to get her revenge on Scrooge mcduck. I think it totally fits him to do something like this since he still wants to get jack for what he did to him.

And like magica, he can do this and create whatever form or shape he pleases. ( I haven’t drawn yet but there going to be fun to give it a go 😁)

He even still can use his powers in this form as well which makes him dangerous since you won’t be able to see or hear him. But with Jordan, that makes his sweet revenge hard to get since she doesn’t want to destroy jack using her powers and following his plans and jack has ghost security system which makes it hard for him to be sensed. So he has Jordan to stay in her human form to not trigger the system or any ghost senses like a certain ghost boy has to stay hidden even though he can’t be seen or heard except by her.

And despite being evil, he actually does his best to help Jordan and his promise of being her friend who never leaves her side with his offer he gave her when he found her in an abandoned building when she ran away from home after learning the dreadful truth about her parents turning her into a monstrous weapon and never caring about her one bit with their obsession of power and treasure ( harsh).

Plasmius has given her advice, ideas, or just have a conversation with her to help her feel comfortable and tell her that he will always be by her side, but He can be annoyed by her kindness and her good instead of showing her evil lol.

Designing him was a challenge by trying out shades of colors and how he will be outlined.

It wasn’t until I found this shade of pink and the pink glow to make me happy with his design. I also gave him shadow claws cause why not? Plasimus with claws is just so fitting to me and to learn we almost had that design in a scrapped storyboard of Bitter Reunions, made me want to give him claws that we could’ve have.

And @thesoulspulse

It’s funny that you mentioned the shadows of him in Eye for an eye, cause that too was an inspiration for him when I was designing him. I saw the shadows and wanted to make a shadow form of him but to give a outline and a few other details to make him look cool 😁

And yes he can also transform back into his ghost form and be with her as well and will mess with her. But for sweet revenge plots and to stay hidden, that’s his shadow form time.

( i apologize for those who have seen this already, but i unfortunately had to redo it cause it somehow disappeared on my feed and now I can’t find it 😞 but it’s here now and I will make sure it doesn’t disappear on me again 😁)

Why did you decide to have the secret bosses not have voicelines and instead have the main bosses have them? I get that you want to stand out and be original, but voicelines are a staple in any secret boss in practically every AU and really help them to stick out, so not having voicelines just seems like a really weird and arbitrary decision. Why not just have it so that both secret and main bosses have voicelines?

See, the thing is, it's not just because I want it to stand out from all the other AUs out there, but also because I personally think that people shouldn't be obligated to make every spamton role have voicelines for their AU, as fun as that can be. And especially, this specific voiceline is what makes Spamton iconic, not necessarily his role. It feels like something you'd hear in an ad! You can always find another way to make it work without limiting yourself to that. You gotta try to be creative with how you handle "this person in this person's role".

Furthermore, the secret bosses [main antagonists] are still... them. Their personalities do not change, and their characters are still influenced by the Shadow Crystal in a way. So wouldn't it make sense that they keep their voicelines, but make it that they say different things depending on the situation? Beside, Retro Heaven [Cyber's World] is based on the 1990s retro era. So naturally, having sample-based songs with voices would harmonize well with the theme I'm going for.

Honestly, I feel like having voicelines for both the secret bosses and the main bosses would be... redundant? It would break the consistency that AETHERCREST mainly has.

In conclusion, I don't dislike AUs that have voicelines in the Spamton role. I'm merely clarifying why it doesn't work for this AU anymore.

All That Glitters (isn’t gold)

Hey readers of ATG!

I feel the need to say this:

All that glitters isn’t gold:

the attractive external appearance of something is not a reliable indication of its true nature.

The main theme of this series is ANGST.

Based on my experiences, it’s also a realistic fuckboy au. (Now I’m not saying that other fuckboy aus are unrealistic, ATG just contains peak fuckboy behavior)

PLEASE go through the ‘warnings/tags’ in the Series Masterlist before you read.

This is a college au and contains college drama.

I also included (since the beginning) unrequited love au in the tags.

Unrequited Love:

or one-sided love is love that is not openly reciprocated or understood as such by the beloved.

Schedule:

Part 08: 210809

bonus: Part 09 (JK’s side): 210816

Wait whats the difference between a request and a suggestion?

That's actually a good question!

For me:

Request= Something that I try my damnest to finish (keeping in mind that I got a lot going on and my fickle inspiration/perfectionism love to take potshots at my productivity).

Suggestion= Just a passing idea to mull over. I may write something for it or I may just say "Nah, not my thing, bro." and move on.

Unless I open up a request window, then all things sent to me are treated as suggestions. It doesn't matter if someone says, "Can I request-..." I will treat as a suggestion.

To be clear, I don’t get annoyed or anything when people send me things like that and I usually don’t even delete those messages (unless the content of whatever they've sent me legitimately bothers me). There are quite a few I have already that I think I could do things for, it's just finding the right time/energy/motivation to do so.

Slight correction from me writing about the cinematography of 12.12′s promo. *yawns* Sam and Mary are the C-Plot, not the A-Plot. The A-Plot is Kelly and Rosemary’s baby right now which... yeah, even saying it out loud holds some weight but anyway, I wrote that when I was really tired and when I re-read it, I was like “wait, no... damnit, Past Me.” Sorry if it was confusing to anyone who noticed. To clarify.  A-Plot = overarching plot of the season or whatever. B-Plot= secondary overarching plot. Usually a romance or whatever an important relationship in the show is. Usually bounces around between characters and their current relationships. In SPN it’s usually either destiel or Sam and Dean’s codependency. S12 also has Mary’s relationship with the boys thrown in and a few other ones. Basically B-Plot = relationships in shows like SPN, usually. C-Plot= This is the plot of the specific episode. It’s really obvious in MoTW episodes. There is a thing, investigate and probably defeat thing. The C-Plot is supposed to mirror the A and/or B plots to answer whatever questions with them were proposed at the beginning of the episode. So like... in 12.10: Was Cas’ decision justified? Should he think about his actions more thoroughly? What’s with Dean and Cas? What will happen when they find Kelly? By episode end, the plot of the specific episode conveniently answers or addresses those questions. 

^These are specific to tv dramas and similar, not sitcoms so much. You can find this sort of structure in similar shows like Burn Notice, White Collar, The Flash, Bones, etc. It’s also pretty true for more serial shows like Jessica Jones and Stranger Things. Watch some later Bones episodes if you want to see a really obvious version of this structure. It’s not bad, it’s just noticeable. These structures are tools, after all. They have to cram a lot of info into about 42 minutes and be in keeping with the restrictive 5-6 act structure of tv. Unless you are a Netflix show (and even if you are), the structure is kind of necessary a lot of the time.

The rest of  that breakdown should be basically accurate minus some grammatical errors... at least in terms of general theory. I can’t guarantee the breakdown is correct intention-wise since I’m not part of production but it’s in line with the rules of film anyway. 

[realm-of-aethercrest]

Listen, I hate to sound rude as I genuinely adore your work and consider you really talented, but something that really bothers me about Aethercrest (specifically the reboot) compared to your other AUs in my opinion is that it feels like you simultaneously change too much and too little, if that makes sense. 

The overall setting and story feel so radically different from Deltarune that it barely resembles the original source material to the point of it sometimes feels like you’re just arbitrarily making changes without any real rhyme or reason behind them solely to make changes when I feel like they should have at least a few similarities, while the characters just feel way too similar for the original for such a vastly different world. Aren’t you interested in exploring what the secret bosses would be like if they’d never gone insane and how the main bosses may manifest insanity? Aren’t you interested in exploring how character relationships and personalities might be affected by the roles they take? Don’t you feel like having one character take two roles and vice versa limits the number of interesting relationships you can explore?

I don't see why this is a problem personally. At the end of the day, it's still a deltarune AU that uses the same characters, style, gimmicks, and even the whole going into another world trope is still pretty much a thing, just that the entire story is going in a different direction and that's exactly the point. This AU is not walking in the same conventional path as deltarune's. Counter-question though, wouldn't anyone want to see what would happen if the secret bosses, while still being insane, ruled the world? Wouldn't anyone want to see what would happen if the main bosses got to struggle in a world run by the freaks without needing to go nuts? The third question is exactly the case for mainly the Lightners. And as for the last one, not really, they can still be as interesting. Again, it depends on how you execute on it and what you want them to be, it's really up to you. There's no stopping someone who wants to break the formula and try experimenting with something else more creative. But if you want to stick with the formula, go ahead! I'm cool with that as long as you can make it entertaining. Yes, I could have gone with the secret bosses being more coherent. Yes, I could have also gone with the main bosses going crazy. And as much as interesting as that concept is, it has been done a lot of times and frankly I'm merely much more invested in working on them not changing their mental stability at all, and let everything else flow from there. I don't have anything against said idea in case you're wondering, it's just that it's not what I'm specially aiming for in this case. Although I admit I have changed a lot of stuff, I'm still figuring things out until I'm finally content with it.
