While you wait for Snake Appreciation Month (because I know someone here is waiting!), here I come with another shameless advertisement post for Cedric’s Screaming Closet on Discord, because we have new server events coming and maybe it’s something for you!
Cartoon watch together 📺: once a week, we will watch a couple of episodes of the cartoon together and fangirl about it in the chat. First appointment is next week on May 8!
Creativening 🎨✒️🧶: if you have a creative project of any kind (art, writing, whatever witchy craft you’re doing, not necessarily w.i.t.c.h.-related) and never find the time to do it, you can join us once a month for a couple of hours and listen to music together while everyone works on their project and hang out in the chat. First appointment is on May 19!
Soooo if there’s a good time to join Cedric’s meltdown support server, this is it!
Invite link: [x]

so in the discord we started to talk about *the children*
in ink and blood you know why cedric and orube don’t have kids, but this offspring discourse has infected me and this is the result - so i present you the mischief trio of metamoor (names and description below; tap and zoom to see these cuties better):
from left to right:
princess ilena escanor, elyon’s and caleb’s daughter, heiress to the throne of meridian, oddly reminding everyone of someone they used to know
vanja arsinoe rhaeleth, cedric’s and orube’s daughter, a shapeshifter who of course uses that power only in a responsible way like her dad told her
prince arjan escanor, elyon’s and caleb’s second child, making metamoor tremble at the news that there’s another boy in the escanor lineage but conquering everyone with those puppy eyes
there’s a whole plot for them, if you want to read it come find us in cedric’s screaming discord!

Save the date! 🐍
He’s the subject of most of our memes, he’s constantly yelled at by the Escanors, he was hated by most canon artists, he died in the comic… but Cedric is still our blorbo, and in May we’re gonna celebrate him: one month, 11 prompts (one every three days because we’re all busybusy), any type of entry is welcome!
So start to cook your entries, I want to see them all starting from May 1st!
(and please feel free to reblog to spread the word!)
EDIT: just for clarification, you can participate by posting about whichever Cedric you want (cartoon or comic doesn't matter!), the only prompt with a limit in this regard is the last one!

For the fandom ask game, of course w.i.t.c.h. fandom, what about 6 and 7? :)
Sorry for the super late answer! (╥﹏╥) But many many thanks for the ask! ^_________^
These questions were actually more difficult than I thought they would be! My first introduction to W.I.T.C.H. was the cartoon and some of its characterization is very different from the comic (not to mention the characters who appear in one but not in the other) so I decided to answer separately for the two. I have no answers for the reboot comic, because I haven't read it (and I probably won't read it 😅).
6. Favourite character
Comic: Cedric
Even just on a conceptual level, I think he is a very cool and unique character. There was something really complex going on with him in his last two arcs (even if I hate how it was cut short) and I wish we could have seen a lot more of him. Btw, Orube was a very close second, but the way she was written out sours her arc for me a bit (if she had a more satisfying ending, she would probably be my overall favourite W.I.T.C.H. character).
Cartoon: Taranee
She is the character I personally relate to the most and she was my favourite when I was little. I love her in the comic as well, but I prefer the cartoon as it didn't have her relationship drama with Nigel.
7. Least favourite character
Comic: Ari
I don't like how the comic seems to justify his wish for healing his son. That's probably my least favourite part of the first 5 arcs. Him learning to accept Maqi and redeeming himself would have been so much better!
Cartoon: Raythor
For a cartoon only character he takes up way too much screentime, which could have been spent on developing others who imo needed it more, like Elyon or Cedric. I didn't care for him when I first saw the show and he sort of annoys me since I read the comics.

✦ Ink and Blood series masterpost ✦
✦ About the series ✦
This series was born as a fix-it for the tragic end of Cedric and Orube in Arc 5 of the comics, but it developed into something a bit broader than just a Cedrube fic. I think it’s fair to say that this is Cedric’s story, with a focus on his major relationships: the friendship with Vathek (admittedly more fanon than canon), the tortured relationship with Phobos (friends? lovers? enemies? codependent broken people? who knows), and finally his light at the end of the tunnel - Orube. More focus is given to Cedric and Orube, of course.
The series is comic-based and keeps the canon into account only until the end of Arc 5.
[Link to the series]
✦ The stories and the reading order ✦
1 - The Book of Elements (ongoing, new chapters Tue and Fri)
Ye Olde Bookshop.
Orube had passed by this bookstore many times, and it had always been closed. Only recently her colleagues from the editorial staff had mentioned that the bookstore had reopened and that it was the perfect place for finding pieces that everyone else had forgotten or discarded. Exactly like what she was looking for - old popular legends about Heatherfield.
This story is a prose rewriting of Arc 5 of the comic, told from Cedric's and Orube's points of view. It includes most canon scenes and is expanded with tons of missing moments between them which we don't see in the canon.
(Rating: Mature)
2 - Ink and Blood (part I) (complete)
Cedric is gone. Unable to stay in Kandrakar waiting for the Oracle to give her anything to do, Orube is granted permission to go back to Earth. She does her best to move on and even has someone new in her life, but she does not forget. And as she gets a glimpse of a stranger with long blond hair in a black uniform standing in front of her house during a storm, forgetting does not become any easier…
(Rating: adult only)
3 - The Twin Suns of Basiliade (complete)
Cedric and Orube are transferred to Basiliade by Elyon's order to join the revolt lead by Orube's brother. Cedric tries to adapt to this new world and to the camp life of the warriors, until it's time for Orube to go to war, while he has to stay in the back and hope that she'll come back all in one piece...
(Rating: mature)
4 - Ink and Blood (part II) (complete)
One year has passed since the take of the Citadel in Basiliade, and it has been one of the happiest in both Cedric's and Orube's lives. They have not forgotten about the threat they left behind on Earth, and they know Elyon will call Cedric back anytime to help her dealing with it, but the Queen does not give any sign of needing his help. Until their peace is shattered by an unexpected encounter...
(Rating: mature)
5 - Ink and Blood (part III) (complete)
Cedric has made his choice. Meanwhile, Orube still has no idea of what is happening on Metamoor, while she tries to enjoy the celebrations for Shoshan becoming a Warrior. Until, again, the celebrations are interrupted by another unexpected visit...
(Rating: adults only)
6 - Home (in preparation... no idea when it will be ready)
7 - The Galahot, the Prince and the Warrior (complete
Vathek. Phobos. Orube. They have one thing in common: a shapeshifter in their lives. Three windows from which you will look at Cedric's story with the eyes of the most important people in his life.
(Rating: Mature)
(contains both Cedric/Phobos - past relationship - and Cedric / Orube)
8 - Stay (third chapter coming soon!)
Cedric has finally a night free from his duties as a Champion of the Queen and looks forward to spending it in his room filled with books, where he can read in peace before accompanying the Queen to Hoel the day after. Unfortunately, someone disrupts his evening plans by knocking on his door with unexpected news and a problem to be solved...
This story is another flashback on Cedric's past and on an event that marked Phobos more than he'd have expected (comic-based). (it’s a Cedric x Phobos thing)
(Rating: Mature)
9 - What Loyalty Means (complete)
‘The Queen and the Consort are dead.’
Cedric repeated those words over and over in his mind, trying to convince himself that they told the truth. None of them had seen the bodies. None of the Champions, the ones like him who were supposed to protect the Queen with their own life. They had received the news from the High Priest, who had forbidden them to enter the Queen’s quarters and then had vanished, leaving them standing there in the hall wondering if they’d all really heard the same thing.
This story is a flashback on the night when Phobos and Elyon lost their mother. (it’s another Cedric x Phobos thing)
(Rating: Mature)
10 - 20 years later [reloaded] (ongoing but presently on a break)
After a few minutes of mindless scrolling the screen of her phone with her thumb, Will set it down on the table with the display facing down. Fed up with the photos from the windows of other people’s wonderful lives on social media, she decided to do something rather unusual for that time in history at the end of 2020 while sitting at a table in a café-bookstore: writing on a notebook.
This story belongs to the Ink and Blood series and takes place at the end of 2020, about twenty years after the beginning of the events in the comics. It is a revised version of the story with the same name I published in 2021, with a lot of changed details.
(Rating: mature)
11 - The King of Meridian [reloaded] (will be published after 20 years later - I think)
This one shot is a missing moment in '20 years later'.
12 - The Gift of Time - An Ink and Blood Christmas story (complete)
While on Earth it’s December 2023, Cedric and Orube are entrusted with the most unusual mission ever: preparing Villa Rudolph to host a terrestrial Christmas for the Queen and a group of curious Metamoor and Basiliade natives. But the most difficult task for Cedric is not decorating a Christmas tree: he also needs to find a gift for Orube. Luckily, Vathek is there to help him…
(Rating: mature)
#new project coming!#but this time i don't know when#i had the idea and i have the story in mind but no energy to write right now#also yes it's just another project so i can keep procrastinating the rewrite of 20 years later#i really don't know why i started that one#ink and blood series
