hc that Grian doesn't know humans can't naturally grow hair that's colored like. blue. green. etc. because he's known so many people who upkeep their hair dye too well that he's never questioned it

I want to be really cheeky about this, but I want y'all to find it how I struggled to in the first place. Basically the audio is just what I presume is Julie screaming. That and going directly to the page won't work. I found that out when I tried to go directly to it the 2nd time. :skull:

oh, that's odd.

i've tried snooping through every julie-related page to see if i could find this thing. i even looked at the html for her character sheet and checked the wayback machine, but it all came up empty. this page doesn't seem to show up anywhere on the sitemap, either, so assuming this isn't an elaborate troll, i'll come forward and ask: has anyone else been able to find this?

[U.C.A.U] - Nina and Ben

Unnamed Creepypasta Alternate Universe!

Nina's phone chirped, it was a text from ben "HOLY SHIT, Have you seen this!?" His text was followed by a link to an article, the preview of it read "Apartment tenant Jeffery Woods, arrested after fight ends with brutal stabbing!" Nina began to reply, "Is that actually him? The guy we went to school with?" She was given a simple "Yeah." in response. "...Got anything extra on him?"

I haven't drawn for my Creepypasta AU in a while, and I need to draw something other than Helluva and Hazbin, So here's a Nina and Ben concept I've had bumping around in my head for a while. TBH, I'm not happy with how they came out, I'll probably change their designs later on down the line (if you have any suggestions feel free to share!)

But for now here are some key points about them:

Nancy Hopkins, preferred name "Nina", is a 19-year-old high school dropout. She lives with her dad and spends most of her days on her computer. She rarely leaves the house, unless it's to meet with family or friends, and her main hobby is looking into and obsessing over serial killers and other criminals. Benjamin Downwell, nicknamed ben, is a 22-year-old computer expert and seemingly Nina's only real-life friend. He's currently homeless, temporarily staying with a friend, and jumping from job to job. He usually spends his days finding content, court/case documents, crime scene photos, and mugshots, for Nina to faun over.

BONUS:: Here's the original concept I had for Nina months ago, I might reuse parts of it, when I update her down the line.

What if Clockwork offers Dan a trip to the past after ten more years?

It's not that he's changed, it's just that he views things a bit differently now.

The idea's based by my own thinking about time travel recently. You see, I've always been interested in time travel, but when I was younger and daydreamed about possibilities, I'd thought about making sure I didn't change certain things and ruin the timeline or my future. But two days ago, I'd pondered about 'what if I were to find myself back during this one part of my life?' and I'd decided that I just don't want to do the types of things I'd done the first time. I want to do the opposite of what I'd done the first time (with some spite), and I don't care about the consequences. (And I don't really need to re-experience things the same way in order to ensure certain things happen, anyhow. I can act on the environment rather than waiting for the environment to act on me.)

And now I'm thinking... Dan would be this way. At 24, he'd been so concerned about keeping the timeline as it was and keeping his present self from vanishing. However, at 34, he might find that he no longer cares enough about the timeline to go through everything he had before. (Although, a big part of this is how the time travel will work. Rather than just popping in briefly, this is a long-haul type of thing. Reliving is different from visiting. But it also involves viewing things differently, and after ten years, he'll view things differently than at 14 or 24.)

So, Clockwork offers to take Dan back, and after some talk, he agrees. ("You aren't going to cease to exist. This isn't Back to the Future." and "Why did you never bring up this possibility before?" "You weren't ready to listen. ...And I had." *Dan recalls the first time Clockwork had tried 'meddling'*)

Now, Dan might just want to get out of confinement, and still want to let the Nasty Burger explosion happen, ...but... he's ended up months before that took place. So he'll just have to wait.

In the meantime, though... Go through all that anxiousness and worry about appearing normal to his classmates and keeping his secret from his parents? Or all that other teen angst over easily-solved issues? Nah. He no longer has the patience. Let people think whatever they want. It'd been too much work the first time around.

And by the time the CAT comes around? Well... does he even have to cheat on the test, set up the Nasty Burger for explosion, watch his family and friends die again, and have to move in with Vlad, in order to get rid of his human half and merge with Plasmius? Go through the worst several weeks of his life all over again? All he really needs is the modified ghost gauntlets. He could probably just go to Wisconsin and force Vlad to make them, or possibly even make them himself. ...Whenever he were to decide to do it. It's not like he has to be in a rush.

Name..

As for my name...? I... I don't know.

I haven't really had time to decide..

I just go by The Lamplighter..

Mason calls me Mrs. Lamplighter, however.

All of it???? ALL OF IT? Who even made that au, and why do they want to M to suffer so much?!

So technically that's @wildlygay 's au, they're who introduced me to tobots and this au!

I cannot answer the second half of the question.

being awake is so hard but im being so brave about it

He's trying his best to fix it -- even if it really isn't his place.

“Do not bother yourself. This is his mistake to bear. He must learn that foolhardy actions come with consequences.” He had it coming. No, he is not sore about the bard spreading lies about him. Definitely not.

that. I didn't, really think it could be you. because how could it?

I thought maybe an ancestor, at some point. But I know the suggestion bothered you when it was made before, so I didn't say anything. why would I upset you over such a pointless maybe?

but they can't be your ancestor. you're the same age.

i can have grandparents

i'm a master at having social anxiety and being afraid i'm annoying my friends <3

I love it when people use "shrimp" to mean "beyond the human range". like "shrimp colors" but applied to other things. "shrimp emotions" "shrimp sounds" "shrimp morality", as if shrimp are living some kind of transcendent existence that humans can never comprehend

pro-AI in the sense of "they taught a bread scanning computer to recognize cancer cells" etc etc

against AI in the sense of "we stole artwork from hundreds to thousands of artists, didn't credit them and didn't financially compensate them"

Peace and love

having such an obvious favorite character trope is life ruining bro

really love dynamics that are like 'it honestly doesn't matter if you view them as romantic or platonic, the point is that they love each other. the type of love is inconsequential, all that matters is that it's there'. gotta be one of my favorite genders.
