He's not mad... he's just disappointed (He's SO mad bro ToT 💔)

Context :

YIPPIE MORE PIRATE AU YAYAYAYAYAYYY !!!! Anyways, secrets out, this au has always been a little barnzii coded but ever since my dear friend wistie has come into my life and infected my brain with qpr barnzii propaganda, I really enjoy the au with both forms of the ship in mind :] so take it however you fancy! ^v^

Anyways . . . Barnacles is the notorious captain of the revered Black Ice (his ship), and the frightening crew aboard it, especially including his small but firey first mate, Konstantine "Kwazii" Rackham. Legends say that the king of the ice and his fire-starter partner are a duo none can best (alongside their astounding, top-skilled, and incredibly respected crew) . . . Except for the few times that they are. Luckily, it isn't often enough to damage their dubious reputation, but it does unfortunately happen. Much of the terror and fear they cause amongst their fellow seagoers is all smoke and mirrors anyway, even if affective, and while yes the characters in this au are a more morally grey and admittedly murderous version of themselves, they are still loyal to the bone and saviors to those in need. Much of the issues that plague them and the watery world are causes of the oceans' most dreaded enemy, the King's Royal Navy, and this band of pirates would stop at nothing to defeat them and right the wrongs they've caused!

Some more facts :

This au is set in the 1700s for all the historical flare and fashion,,,

Inkling is their mysterious sponsor and supplier - and if need be, they will do his dirty work most willingly and diligently - and the one they owe their lives to, some even literally,,,

And this au Kwazii, due to secret past traumas that only his dear captain knows about (and my dear friends >:)), is an arsonist, hence the flaming reputation. He doesn't mean to cause harm (to the innocent) with his fires, only to relieve the oftentimes agonizing urge and to feel safety in the warmth and protection that the flames grant his troubled mind, but sometimes his urge gets the better of him and a load of cargo or two goes up in flames 😔 he's working on getting better about it though, with Barnacles's help <3

AAUUGHHHHH qpr barnzii makes me soOOOO FUCKING SIIIIIICK AUUURGHHHH 💥💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 GONNA BASH THEIR HEADS TOGETHER SO HARRRDDDDD AAAAUURURRGHHHH AND ITS WISTIE'S FAULT 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 said with much much love <3

I will absolutely post more about this most beloved au of mine when I get more interest/ideas and art for it!! ^w^

Hehehe HE HAS MORE LORE >:3 !!!!! He's soooo spoiled for it but idc because hes my BABY!!! Just for you mick!!! ;3 <3

I've stated on several occasions that Stag is technically immortal because as long as he continues to take on a new husk each time the previous has been spent (he keeps the body in tact despise it decomposing on the inside just by living in it), so obviously after the one he's currently using is up, he'll have to move on or literally be a helpless, unprotected little black sentient blob of goop. So, after some time, he does, but of course, it takes him far longer to finally "move on." Being in the body he currently is in now is special to him because it was the version of him that Helen loved. She knew he wasn't really a buck, but still, she adored the form he took on for her, and Stag is deeply attached to it because of her. When it dies, it feels like what she loved will die along with it, and with that, what little remains of her that he has left. Of course, he'll never forget her, the first woman he ever truly loved, but the decision, even if necessary, will be painful to him. He'll fight and cling and claw desperately at all he has left of her until it falls apart in his arms and longer still he'll huddle by her grave until the grass overtakes it and the worms steal her remains.

But still, eventually, he'll move on. Years later, an entire generation gone by, one entire, painful, lonely reincarnation missed in the cycle, he'll spend a long time learning how to be a real 'human' for the next lover down the line. By the time he meets Harriet, the "next Helen," he's much better at being a man. (I also joked once when making her character that how they first met was by running into one another in a small little country town and when they locked eyes they ran to embrace and kiss (because of having gone an entire reincarnation cycle apart) and my friend liked it sm i decided to make it canon X3 hehe)

He's still a goofball and horrible at pretending (books and People Watching are never as good as hands-on experience), but Harriet loves him all the same. He's grown a lot to be the perfect man for her! He even has a job now (and can TALK!! :D It's painful and difficult due to the transferring process between husks damaging the throat, and he prefers using ASL that he's learning, but he can talk now and he has a voice claim (in the art) to match!! ^w^)

Harriet is his new wife and very similar to Helen in her loud, country, no-nonsense attitude, but much more social and aggressive than her prior self. She's a sweetheart for sure but definitely lets her temper get to her, and Stag loves to watch her beat people up when they have their date nights at the local bar 🥰 she's also a park ranger! And technically Stag's boss but he doesn't mind (he highkey loves being bossed around) . . . Her character is still being developed so more on her another time ^v^

In the image below is two of his friends and fellow employees!! Jeremy McCoy and Wolfgang Jäger, a coyote and timber wolf respectively, and his much younger colleagues. Wolfgang idolizes Stag greatly, young and naive and very silly, and all the more oblivious to all the weird goings-on that Jerry, conversely, has seen all of. Jerry is TERRIFIED of Stag and Stag LOVES to torment him (he'd never actually hurt him, however, just scared him for the love of the game <3 he'll always be mischievous) (and no, Wolfgang doesn't believe Jerry when he insists Stag isn't normal tehehe)

More on this stage in his life another time, its still under development, but deeply beloved by me and hopefully the two other people who are as insane about Stag as I am 😭🫶 it is SO SO SO SO SO appreciated and makes me so so super duper happy when you guys like my stupid little dude and his friends !!!! 🥺🤎🤎🤎

Unplanned part 2 to the paani drawing, I hope you can piece together the story.

Kwazii got fleas.

Like in a world where most peoppe have fur or feathers there is alot more advanced anti flea/tick/lice solutions, mostly shots to prevent local fleas from even wanting to get near you.but they travel ALL over the world, visiting random islands. Theyre BOUND to get some kind of flea theyre not immune to at LEAST ONCE

(Text : Kwazii woulsnt stop itching! Cone of SHAME! He cant open it (his pride is hurt)

😔 he kept clawing at his neck and if they used normal bandages hed just stick his claws under those too so... yeah that thing is held shut by a magnet lock only Peso can open 😭

HUMILIATING but neccessary i fear, he can barelt even turn his head 😔

Text : Allo ye can SUCK ME BLISTERIN'- 🌟🐙‼️💀#️⃣!!!!

yeah hes not happy about it OR the few pictures Dashi took 😭😭😭

Text : Kwazii covered in stni flea shampoos and lotiond and erapped in plastic wrap (miserable)

Tweak (slowly backing away)

----

when he first got the fleas he had to take a flea bath with a ridiculous amount of anti flea shampoo and then they had to let the shampoo sit there while he was wrapped in plastic rap

Tweak went up to get some lunch thinking it was a normal day before she saw that and IMMEDIATLY locked herself in the launch

Now look.

Growing up in the everglades means ur bound to get some kind of flea or tick at least once or twice even if u have ur shots.

And even if Marsh, raising Tweak, wouldve used anti flea shampoo he still wouldve done a bunch of other " old fashioned" BULLSHIT rememdies rhat were AWFUL.

So needless to say Tweak is basically using the launch bay as a locked bunker and they cant even go on missions cuz shes convinced theyll get her infested. Which is fair but like Inkling had to talk her down to letting them go down there as long as they stayed on the other side of the launchbay away from her room 😭

Text: anti- scratch mittens

He still kept clawing at his arms and back and legs so yk. Anti acratch mittens it is! Oh i love making him suffer phsycially and mentally 🥰

Text : CAUGHT

Barnacles, having grown up in the deep ARCTIC without many bugs doesnt understand why Kwazii wont stop biting! He understands its itchy but hes being far too impulsive and this is ridiculous!

Text: itchy & miserable

Barnacles: i have emotionally comforted my dear friend and made sure he didnt bite himself🙄 💕 i would NEVER do such a th-

*gets fleas from Kwazii and realizing that the only way to get rid od the PAINFUL itch is from BITING IT IMMEDIATLY*

Barnacles: 👁_👁 FU-

Kwazii is a bit too smug about this 😭

Text: mri mrrrpii mrip mri!

Bonus Kwazii mirping free from fleas😭

But honestly its only really kids who typically get fleas since they dont have the same immunity adults do, that paired with all the anti scratch gear makes it embarassing as FUCK btw 😭

Anyways ik this was a little weird but i got to torture have fun with Kwazii so whatever 😭 yall wanted this in ur hearts i KNOW that cuz i saw the poll votes

No pressure tags 💕

[Image text: Inkling took away Barnacles hat and captain priveleges cuz hes the only one who can

Barnacles was banished from working dur to 873 total injuries...

Banner reads: "STUPID DUMMY IDIOT CORNER"]

Hes in tears

Hes crying and youre laughing at him!

You! The viewer of this post!

The reason Barnacles is SO SMALL (he should be like 4x bigger than Inkling) is cuz he was SO UPSET HE SHRUnK

Its not his fault he wants to do strenuous physical labor with 87 broken bones!!!!

He deserves to do all the captainy stuff he likes!

😩 thats his POV btw^

That stupid STUPID marshmallow
