Donella and Cyrus as wlw and mlm solidarity
Thank you.
Trying to draw timeskip Hugo and I don't even know what to do with his hair. Like I made it longer so it would be easier but it's really not. Also I had to erase it multiple times so I accidentally made Baldgo ššš
rb to tell prev they're being so brave right now and pat their head a little please
Random idea that's been living in my head rent free and I needed to yap about it even a little: Hugo doesn't have wanted posters. Like at all. Donella made sure to get rid of all of them because dealing with her employee/son being wanted in like a million towns and kingdoms and whatever would just be a hassle. Donella did keep at least one of them, maybe Hugo's very first since he started working for her. So if in one of the trials (maybe the iron trial) Varian finds Hugo's wanted poster in Donella's base... I really wanna figure out what would happen
For every like Elon Musk gets a kick to the balls, for every reblog Trump gets fucking punched
Alright! Sorry for being so absent today! I was building a tool so you can all check your own names on demand.
I am asking that you not talk about it on Hugging Face. I'm sure word will get there eventually, but I'd like to avoid them accessing this as much as possible. Feel absolutely free to spread around Tumblr.
That said, I did pay out of pocket for some of the accounts I've needed to do all this. If I need to, I'm fine with eating that cost, but I am going to ask nicely that if you feel like kicking in toward it, you donate to the Ko-Fi I made specifically for this technical project. I was hoping to get a short-term membership, but I was only able to buy access to host this for a full year lmao. BUT regardless, this is freely available to everyone. Do NOT feel like you need to donate if it'll put you in a bad place or even if you just don't want to. Just figured I'd ask instead of quietly sucking up the $180.
Thanks to everyone who helped with the cost to host the tool! I appreciate you so so so much. As of this edit, I'm at $185 total, and right now, I don't expect to have to pay for anything else to keep this available.
I gave the tool a quick test, but please come yell if it stops working. I'm around; I'll fix as fast as I can. It's slow as hell, but it does load eventually. Give it up to 10 minutes, and if it seems down after that, please alert me via ask! Anons are on.
Now with all that being said, time for me to start focusing on how we stop the next scrape.
Okay, yeah, I'm using most of these for my Vat7k series. Thank you!!
Okay so I know he's out Vat7k exclusive but he is in team radical so what are your Varian headcanons??
YAYYY VARIAN MY BELOVED
Used to love when it snowed because it meant he got to go sledding with his dad, but then he developed an intense fear/hatred of snow because of the events during queen for a day
First reaction was to not trust Nuru because of how much she reminds him of Rapunzel. Even though the two of them had mostly mended things at that point, there was still a part of him deep down that blamed Raps and expected Nuru to betray the rest of the team for her kingdom
Had to put up a sign declaring his lab an āanti-Eugeneā zone due to how often Eugene just barges in without warning. When it didnāt work, Varian changed it to say āAnti-Horaceā just to piss him off
Keira and Catalina were his first friends that were actually around his age
Calls Hugo āpretty boyā as an insult (backfires cuz Hugo thinks theyāre flirting)
Thrives in warm/hot weather but the moment the temperature drops, Varian refuses to go outside and wears thick clothing until itās spring/summer again
Heās a snob about produce due to his dad being a farmer, and itās a nightmare to go food shopping with him. Whatās supposed to take an hour at most turns into an entire afternoon wasted at the market because the tomatoes are too soft or the apples arenāt the right color or the celery doesnāt snap right. Hugo, who grew up eating whatever he could get his hands on, has to physically restrain himself from strangling Varian
He had freckles everywhere
Exchanges letters with Rapunzel throughout his journey as a way of mending their relationship further (they both still feel super guilty about everything that happened and blame themselves) so no matter how far Varian travels, heāll always have someone from home to guide him
Doodles Team Radical in the margins of his journal when heās bored (caught himself making a very detailed sketch of Hugoās face and was shamed of himself for days)
Inconsistent sleep schedule due to nightmares, which often leads to him sitting outside by thr campfire late at night. Because of this, he and Hugo are alone together a lot of the time because Hugo is usually the last of the team to go to bed
Insane sweet tooth, genuinely canāt get through the day without consuming something sweet
First to see Hugo with his hair down and was a flustered mess about it for hours after
Hugo was the first one he told about his past as the Alchemist
Has the Saporian emblem on his body somewhere (either tattooed or branded idk) because everyone in that group has it as a way to pledge their loyalty
Slight country accent that surfaces only when heās really fired up (you can pry this hc from my cold dead hands cuz I think itās so funny that he becomes a cowboy when heās angry)
āAccidentallyā leaves too traps in the castle halls where he knows Nigel and/or Frederick will be walking
Forgets to eat all the time. People will remind him, but heāll just wave it off and forget until someone shoves a ham sandwich in his face and threatens to reorganize his beaker drawer
Despises coffee and makes fun of Eugene for drinking an āold manā drink, but he will drink it if heās pulling an all nighter and is desperate for something to keep him awake
Realized he was bisexual at some point during the journey. I feel like he wouldnāt care about romance after becoming royal engineer and getting over his crush on Cassandra, so it wouldnāt really occur to him that he likes both guys and girls until heās on the road with too much time to think
Tries to emulate his dad when taking charge of the group cuz even away from home, he looks up to his dad
Wrist scars from the handcuffs during his prison era, whether theyāre prominent or barely visible
Left-handed. Why? I dunno, it just makes sense to me
Hot chocolate snob. Heāll drink almost all kinds of hot chocolate, but he has a preference for the high quality stuff they keep in the castle and can tell the difference between different kinds (judges people who make it with water instead of milk)
When heās in a particularly sour mood, heāll shut off all the hot water in Corona just to be petty (usually does it when Frederick pisses him off)
Yong called him his brother once and he didnāt stop crying for an hour
Makes fun of Hugo for not knowing how to swim until Varian has to save him from drowning in the water trial
Gets offended when people call Ruddiger fat or say heās overweight (heās basically a bowling ball that waddles around the castle but Varian isnāt ready for that conversation yet)
Refuses to let people take care of him when heās sick because they āhave better things to doā
Hugo is the only one he will voluntarily share a lab space with. Anyone else and heād sooner throw himself out a window
I have so much more but this is definitely long enough jansosiwbsoishwnsksoaisj I love him
Thank you for the ask <333
Anon you traitor. This is peak entertainment
so someone has a gay river full of gay water and i have a strong suspicion they're giving Hugo some of it
Why do you Anons like making my child sick? Itās just more of a mess for me to deal with than anything.
I have no thoughts other than library depression now. I don't even know how a library can be depressed, but it is.
I feel like Hugo's betrayal would be parallel to when Varian reveals his criminal past, but also not really? I like to think Varian would've revealed his past by himself, rather than waiting for the group to stumble across a wanted poster or smth. I also think Hugo would've figured it out a while ago, and while Nuru and Yong would be mad that he hid it for so long, they'd soon realise that he's changed his ways, and their friendship and trust would grow stronger.
When it comes to Hugo's betrayal, however, he hid it for much longer. Donella was also the one to tell everyone, not giving Hugo a chance to explain himself. Another thing is that nobody in team radical knew or could really relate, except for maybe Varian but he was too heartbroken at that point. While Varian was comforted by Hugo after his reveal, Hugo had nobody. He was stuck with Nuru and Yong, who hated him at that moment, and Varian just ran off.
I also think that for Varian, Nuru would be more upset but for Hugo, it'd be Yong.
Hell yeah sequel oneshot!
look. iām not saying āfear is the heart of loveā is gonna get a follow-up oneshot, because that would be ridiculous. iām also not saying that you should be on the lookout for āthe incision always followsā, because now weāre entering downright ludicrous territory. iām also not saying that some more comments on the og oneshot would speed up my writing process and motivate me tremendously, as well as warming my little heart. iām glad we understand each other.
