Interaction Guidelines

₁. ASK BOX ETIQUETTE

Asks are always open! I love getting them, truly I'm desperate for interaction! Come at me from every angle and we'll work this au for all it's worth!

Anon is ON. Feel free to use them if you're shy!!!

Please, no sexual content. I am an adult but by the nature of this au, no sexual stuff is accepted!

But gore? Sure lmao

₂. ON ROLE-PLAY

This is an Au blog, not an RP blog. I won't be doing real-time, in-character long role-playing in the DMs or replies.

I offer silly images and walls of text.

However! You can absolutely send an in-character ask/interaction from your own blog or OC, and I MAY draw (Or, write?!) a response from the Lords!

I haven't roleplayed in quite a few years, so please bear with me I might not know what to do T^T..

You'll need to have an actual character I can draw, if not I'm using the classic Grey Anon or your Pfp.

₃. ON OTHER AUs

I love seeing other people's AUs! It's so cool to see what everyone creates and I'm open to interacting!

Q&A

(Send more questions pwease)

Q: What IS this AU? A: A "baby eldritch gods" origin story set in the Black and White, focusing on their dysfunctional family dynamics and how it made them who they are, with Webby as a neglectful eldest sister and Wiggly as an abusive older brother.

Do you remember my first post? Past and present? I'm gonna give all the LiBs one of these drawings :3

Many many months but who's counting, right?

Webby's noticed that it seems everytime she leaves her brothers alone some misfortune seems to befall Pokey, she thinks Wiggly's doing a bad job taking care of him while she's gone but he argues that it shouldn't be his job! and! Pokey dosent speak, they don't even know if that things actually sentient! Maybe the little dumbass just, forgot, how, to walk?? It makes sense - why's she looking at him like that? He didn't do anything!

When creatures in the Black and White get large enough, they quickly find that gravity is a social construct. -The Black and White being more of an abstract plane than a real space has no real "ground" and creatures you would expect down deep are above your head trying to rip it clean off!

Being opportunistic is key to survival, these fucking things go for the centipede thing instead of the bright coloured things because the centipede thing is bigger and - they aren't very smart, despite being smaller, there are more of the bright coloured things than them..

...

This is where I should bring up the Sniggles, in my minds eye I see them as the creatures Webby is imitating, there are so many of them and, while bigger than her at the moment they're surprising weak... But they're smart! and they take care of each other!! and have a whole THING going!!! She wants that!- Even if she doesn't really understand what that is... The Sniggles, unfortunately, only mingle with other Sniggles and are quite unforgiving to outsiders..

"Drowsy Town" at this point is just the area all the Sniggles usually hang out, where they all stay, being unbothered by sheer power of numbers... in the future, after Wiggly kills every other creature in the Black and White and becomes it's god king, he leaves the Sniggles because of how easy they take to worship, and how they reshape their society to worship the Lords...

They start off small, obsurdly small, at first all one needs to gain mass is to survive but soon after you get your starting mass you have to start working for it-! All The Lords (exept Pokey) all started rapidly growing after they started staying with Webby. "Rapidly" being a relative term of course.

The Post-Webby image here is immediately after he met Webby but still Pre-Pokey.

These were all drawn by my 8 year old sister!! she's so cool...

Still no Tinky because I'm bad at drawing goats :(

When I thought of just showing my designs to a child and seeing what happened I got really excited, and I was right because these are adorable!!!!

How "in character" these are is debatable, they were drawn by someone who doesn't care about characterization after all... but they look more authentic than when I tried to draw as the kiddos so... a win in my book.

(I originally tried to get my 3 year old cousin to draw these but... his art is on another level, beyond us mortals...)
