I had an ask like this some years ago but I forgot about it, turned off asks, and couldn't find it so I had to recreate it.

To whoever initially asked I'm so sorry 😭

If you're talking about my Horrid Henry Monster AU. Yeah

I had a thought several years ago about " hey if Henry can turn into these things then what about other people ? We've kinda seen it happen " thus sprung my Horrid Monsters AU. Initially it was a literal headcanon but eh, I feel like it's better as an AU.

It's going through a bit of a rewrite bc it started when I was deep in Psychosis so some of it doesn't make sense. It's not lore heavy, though.

The monsters that I remember arrre:

- Henry: freewill shape shifter. His main is a T Rex. Overtime his eyes become completely white and there's a slight static sound around him

- Ralph: freely shifting werewolf

- Al: Kangaroo, however I'm likely to change this

- Bert: Mountain Goat

- Brian: Emperor Penguin

- Andrew: Deer

- William: Fox

- Graham: Orc

- Nick: Vampiric Bat. I think fruit bat specifically ?

- Kassim: Rosymaple Moth

- Toby: Bull

- Ian: Kraken

- Dave: I actually don't think I remember

- Stone Age Steve: dinosaur, don't know which one yet, but definitely more fossil themed ( not an actual skeleton or fossil. Dunno how to explain it )

- Margaret: winged Unicorn

- Susan: plant monster

- Soraya: Bird ( yellow robin )

- Gurinder: shark ( thresher )

- Linda: sheep

- Nicola: Poison Dart Frog

- Martha: Chameleon

- Violet: Bird again ( crow )

- Zoey: Zebra

- Kate: Chinese Dragon, subject to change as I'm very unsure if making a character named Kung Fu Kate into a Chinese dragon is appropriate but that's up to asian, especially Chinese, people to tell me

- Fiona: Leopard / werecat

- Peter: can't quite remember, but I know at some point he became a cyborg

- Ted: Teddy Bear

- Graham: another one I can't remember, but also becomes a cyborg, specifically steampunk themed

- Sam: ghost

be it good or not

for example we got henry having reality changing abilities and also him being self aware of his surroundings

that whole life isn't fair rant (i kid you not that entire rant gave me clay puppington vibes)

henrys reality changing abilities

because apparently being horrid allows to to stop the flow of time for the shits and giggles

we got the return of king henry the horrible and honestly i think he mellowed a little

compared to his first appearance anyway

also series 4 has this weird habit of mixing reality and a henry fantasy sequence

no seriously what was with the too cool for school episode

was it real??

also the king henry the horrible episode

was THAT real?

also i love how the best boys got a little bit of a personality when peter went missing

i also love that margaret knows that henry would do anything if she says he couldn't....and that it WORKS
