well, considering four of them have never met the cookies who make them up in their lives... most of their reactions would boil down to this.

it would mostly be confusion, again because theyve never met these cookies before. i do think that rye and immortal would end up fighting, mostly because rye starts shooting at her, but thats it. blueberry pie doesnt leave her tower, so dragon lord would have to have Appeared there, to which she'd promptly kick him out. and bright... doesnt get out much, so aegis couldnt really meet her. and i like to think dawnbringer just yoinks dozer though. like yeah. youre coming home with me type vibes. shes gonna go show him to salt

the only ancient who knows the swapped beast would be Compassionate. and i got lazy so his reaction is a lot of this.

I think I only ever vauged on this until I posted the conversation snippets between myself and my beta reader…

the lilygang (love that name) are all in their twenties! PV and WL have both mentioned graduating from the academy “a few years ago”, and they’ve all had alcoholic drinks before so that the very least they’re all 21 if you view the academy as something similar to a high school.

i’ve been personally imagining them all as like, 23-26 ish. old enough not to be questioned about them traveling as a group and young enough to still be a bit naive-ish about the world.

i didn’t want to make them too young, mostly for backstory and plot reasons, but we never got confirmed age ranges for them for when they first got the soul jams so i had to fudge a bit.

the brave ancients are in a bit of a similar state, but their aging was slowed by the soul jams. Custard is physically 16-17 ish (he was 13 when the war started and spent 3-4 years with the displaced trio after), the Brave Trio are all physically roughly in their late teens-early twenties (i always headcannoned the in crk to be about 12-13, and custard to be around 8, so there’s about a 4-5 year difference there) with chili being almost 30 (she gets pissed af every time it’s brought up)

i couldn’t make them too young otherwise them having their own kingdoms/schools wouldn’t work (except for custard. but he’s a special case and they didn’t allow him to be a king until he become a hero with a soul jam)

GINGERBRAVE IS NOT ACTUALLY 17.

(This isn’t directed at people just making birthday fanart btw. Also if you didn’t know this already you’re fine, I’m just spreading awareness)

Usually the age misconception thing is just kind of an annoyance to me, but as the anniversaries near 18, I know that SOME PEOPLE are gonna use it as an excuse to be creeps about him. So, I’m gonna make a post clarifying it since some people can’t be bothered to remember basic information about this game’s main character.

That moment when Unity finds the polycule future of the bounded hope au and realizes how much it could’ve been laid if they weren’t so fucked up and weird

"“And oh, what secrets it held!” Blueberry Milk’s voice softened, almost reverent. “For you see, the book was written by an Archivist. The Virtue of Knowledge herself~!” Five silhouettes rose before the book. Unlike the mannequins or the paper dolls, these cookies where made of cardboard. They had no faces, no real bodies, nothing but dark shapes, yet each carried a symbol that struck the mind harder than likeness could have. The first stood front and center, wings adorning the sides of their head. Their body was covered by layers of flowing fabric, obscuring anything concrete, but on their chest was a purple clover turned upside down, framed by the almond shape of an eyecing. On one side rose a figure with a large hat and a gun in hand, aiming outward, a triangle-shaped gem serving as belt buckle. On the other, a Cookie with great delicate wings flowing behind them like a cape and an upside down heart hovering adorning their head. Behind them two more figures appeared. A figure with a blue gem set into their head, the same shaped and color as the gemstone on the book, and ribbon-like shapes flowing around them, frozen in beautiful arcs. The last was the smallest. They were almost shapeless, with a three-pronged flower flipped around on their chest. White Lily’s hands curled helplessly in their bindings. The Virtues. These were what the figures from Elder Faerie's story looked like? The silhouettes trembled in the stage light, ancient and simplified, myth reduced to prop and yet still too powerful to look at directly. Their symbols glowed in their dark bodies, drawing all the attention there."

After months of vague posting and dodging your questions, they're finally here! The Swapped Beasts of the HBAN AU!

Now that the Silver Kingdom arc is coming to an end and we prepared for the Beasts arcs, I thought I'd go ahead and reveal who exactly they are!

Your Beasts! Black Raisin Cookie (Despair), Rye Cookie (Judgement), Blueberry Pie Cookie (Futility), Gingerbright (Doubt), and Gingerdozer (Silence)! There were so many great guesses, some of you got Black Raisin and Blueberry Pie pretty quickly, just based on their absences in HBAN!

I won't reveal much about them and their stories since I want you all to experience it live was the story goes on, but let it be know that I am SO EXCITED to talk about them with you guys!

also a quick thank you to @summerdoddles for helping me figure out Dozer's design!

close ups under the cut :))
