centaurworld really said “i am going to create a villain death scene that is so tragic and cathartic all at once”

Some of these actually shocked me tbh

Centaural Suite

Inspired by Disney's Fantasia, of course.

Okay okay obsessed with wammawink actually and her in this song.

Wammawink’s whole character arc is that, she was the sole survivor of her herd after the war and now that she’s made a new adoptive family (who also came from broken pasts and tragedy), her greatest fear is losing them again, leading her to be overprotective and filled with insecurities.

In the beginning of the series she carries a lot of survivors guilt and helplessness, and quickly gives up in the face of adversity great or small, such as when she quit Waterbaby’s shaman training, because of her trauma. Her most iconic spell is her barrier bubble in which she uses to keep her herd and more importantly herself safe, keeping out all dangers and also serving as a metaphor for her own mentality of rejecting new experiences and keeping out bad feelings.

This song is really cool because the visuals draw a comparison between wammawink and the woman. Throughout the song, the visuals focus on wammawink more than the rest of the herd (except for when Glendale stole the key) and it seems that the woman is directly telling wammawink about what will happen to her (even if she is in fact talking of herself).

Wammawink and the Woman both use the barrier spell (and even their magic is near in hue), and the lyrics “keep it locked up, keep it sealed tight” are really applicable to wammawink. They both went through a huge ordeal in the war, losing the ones they loved (additionally the elktaur and horse also have parallels in being said loved ones who lost or nearly lost themselves to their own self hatred) and having to navigate a strange world on their own. Their trauma leads to themselves sealing themselves away, and in turn limiting themselves and ruling themselves with fear.

But the difference and a true testament to wammawink’s character development, is that she grew to be confident again and grew to prioritise her love over her fear. Wammawink realised that she has control and she now has the ability to defend herself and her herd and they have her back too. She was so afraid to go out into the world but in the end she’s willing to put herself on a battlefield to protect her happiness and safety.

And we see this when she steps of Waterbaby’s barrier, in front the prospect of harm and dark memories, and says to think of the fragile things. She turns the song Fragile Things’ meaning on its head and rather than avoiding the fight to overprotect others, she wants to keep fighting for her hope. She’s driven by her faith that she can be okay whilst the woman is driven by her fear of it not being.

I think both of them are justified in their actions of course because of how grey the circumstances of the plot are but I am so emotional over wammawink getting over her fears and finding the strength to do what she wants, to protect her herd

"She reached over his head to place the medal back around his neck. As she lowered it, the ribbon caught the brim of his hat. He tried to raise a hand to pin the hat to his head, but he wasn’t fast enough. The hat fell backwards, and the stumps of his antlers were exposed."

What might have happened if she knew what he'd done.

Took this off my AO3 acc, to elaborate the character names are just what they are. Woman being Princess, Elktaur being Elktaur, etc

Stray lights had flown in through opaque, thin curtains that swayed from the open window, it barely illuminated the room full of clothes strewn about haphazardly and the mess of papers that sat by themselves in bunches across the ground. The papers had small sketches of constellations and comparison sheets of Centaurworld’s and the Human World’s stars, moon, and sky to find all that you could. The endless possibilities were endless. Especially with the centaurs’ magic, they could conjure up ways to explore space in a way humans were not able to! The number of benefits that came with living on this side of the Rift was more than amazing, astronomical feats could all be completed so easily! Your aggressive scribbles against another paper that browned at its corners and were now inked with sentences about the observations made on Centaurworld’s stars, the charming aspect so far as how the sun represented a moletaur despite being a- a… You stopped in your scribbles, eyes blanking on the page as exhaustion and drowsiness caught up after realizing that you never really got the chance to sleep because you were busy doing research about the stars again. The world alignment of constellations always made you curious too, though none of that was important right now when you saw the daybreak pierce through your curtains. In an instant, you shot up from the wooden tile floor and bolted to your dresser to fish out whatever clothes you had in there. You were practically losing it as you pushed through countless bundles of clothing before slipping on something akin to a cloak, tunic, and some wide-leg trousers that barely hovered over your shins while slipping on some shoes. A weird assemble of clothing on par with scrolls under your arm, you scampered down the hall to your door, and just as you slammed it open- a startled woman on the other side jumped back in surprise. Thankfully, she didn’t get hit by the abruptly opened door and had only stumbled, the woman seemed fine. You froze on the spot, realizing what you had done, "Princess!" The startled shriek was enough to make the lavender-haired princess look at you and wave off your worries, "It's no big deal, not like I got hurt or anything," she chuckled while brushing down her dress, hiking up her skirt to brush down the hem with a glance to, you, her acquaintance. You became flustered, babbling nonsensical muck to apologize for being so brash but she only waved it off. The princess was more than understanding of the small mishap, her gentle touch resting on your shoulder and waving the 'problem' off. She then linked her arm around your shoulders to pull you in close to her side with a sly smile resting on her lips and her eyes alight with curiosity, "So," she began with a gesture to the scrolls you held under your arm, "What're they for? C'mon, you can tell me!" She excitedly clung to you as you both began to walk down toward the docks. You shook your head, making a motion as if to zip your lips shut, "I can't tell you that, it's for your father and my team!”

She pouted in reply, "But I'm the princess, shouldn't I know more about this for when I take the throne?" Her attempts to make you loosen the lid on this 'secret' research were fruitless, she knew all too well that you couldn't disclose anything about what you were doing but she still hoped you would humor her enough to say what it was. You sighed, shaking your head and looking away from her for a moment, you mulled over letting the princess know at least something about the operation, "Well, there is-" she suddenly interrupted you, "We were also attacked by a beartaur! It was an invigorating experience, we were-! Wait what?" She looked at you just as you looked at her and with a horrified expression but she just waved it off yet again and laughed, "I'm fine, but my guard is absolutely paralyzed with fear! You should've been there to see it!" She swayed with you held tight against her side, causing you both to fumble down the dirt path like drunkards rushing home. You roll your eyes and try to keep balance while the dirt path merged to gravel while you both got closer to the docks. It was beautiful, the world was so saturated in Centaurworld with greener trees, grass, bluer skies, and water, everything felt like it was a part of a fairytale and you were more amazed by it the more you saw the world. You wanted to travel and see the entirety of this world but you had a job, a job to stay within the boundaries of where you were posted. While engrossed in your own thoughts, you didn't notice the princess' leg sweeping yours out from under you and like dominoes the both of you tumbled onto the pearly cobblestones of the docks. You shrieked yet again, collapsing facefirst while the princess landed across and on top of you. The scrolls you had now rolled off, some dipping off the edge and into the water while some teetered close to it, the clatter of hooves caught the attention of both of you- the sight of an elktaur suddenly dashing on over to collect the scrolls safe from the water and return them to you while you and the princess recovered from falling. You look up and the first thing you noticed was the grand horns that loomed over you and the elktaur they belonged to, you felt your throat dry up as he knelt in front of you and held out the scrolls that fell, "I'm sorry, the other ones fell in the water and I couldn't get to them, I managed to... To save these for-" he looked tongue-tied, stuffing the scrolls into your hands while the princess stood up and rushed over to the edge of the docks with a horrified gasp, "Oh my flonk! I'm so sorry, I-" The water rose suddenly, beckoned on by her hand as it let the soaked and dripping scrolls splat against the cobblestones. You whine and let your head hang low, "Those were important! Now they're ruined! Oh, I'm going to be beheaded!" You bunch your hands in your hair with the dry scrolls smushed against your hair, Princess looked apologetically to you and the wet scrolls, doing her best to remove all the water from them as bundles of water pooled out in a huge clump from each and were dropped back into the water. They were somewhat dry but the ink was ruined now, she pursed her lips tightened into a thin frown, "I can explain to my father it was my fault, you don't need to fret." She reassured you while the Elktaur awkwardly stood there and rubbed his hand against his shoulder without a clue as to what to say.

“It's fine," you begin, inspecting the scrolls you had in hand with tired eyes, "These were the important ones." Princess blinked, as if not understanding what you said, so you repeated. "The ones you have are my doodles of constellations, I just mixed up the seals-" you squeaked in surprise as the wet scrolls were thrown at you- the elktaur dodging them in time, "You dork! Don't worry me like that!" Despite her tone, and her furrowed brows, she still broke into laughter and held her stomach with a snort. The elktaur looked between the two of you, unsure of what to say, he was so red in the face and for a moment you thought steam was about to come from his face. He spoke up nervously, "W- well, I'm glad your.. Yo- your your- y'know's is fine! Ha!" He rubbed the back of his neck, you could feel the secondhand embarrassment all the way from where you were on the wet cobblestones. He helped you up, linking his hand around your arm and hoisting you up while keeping the most distance that he could. Princess had come strolling over, bumping her elbow against his side, "Smooth, very smooth." She winks at him before noticing his uniform, she recognized it as one of the high-ranking officers that maintained the Rift. She gripped your shoulders from behind, "My, saving super important scrolls and keeping the Rift up and running? I should let my father know of you," she smiled, leaning over your shoulder and looking to the mystery elk who perked up and found his vocabulary. The elktaur shook his head briskly, "No, no! I don't need any thanks! It's just, y'know- I'm doing my job!' You quirked your brow, lifted up your scrolls, and gestured to them with your other hand, "Saving scrolls that are meant for the king is not just 'a part of your job', you deserve some thanks!" You exclaim and Princess had nodded in agreement, the elktaur's hind legs bent closer to his front legs, rubbing his neck yet again, he obviously was overwhelmed with the compliments and an offer to put in a good word about him. Suddenly, the woman behind you squealed in delight, linking arms with you and the elk while dragging the two of you toward the Rift gates. "We should host a party in your favor!" She looked up to him and then to you, "Shouldn't we?" She then turns to you, making you nod as a result of the whiplash her sudden hyperness brought. You lean against her, sighing with a small glance to the pretty elktaur you both stumbled onto and felt the question linger on your tongue before being spat out.

"What's your name?"

He looks to you as if he wasn't already making small glances at you, his face tinges a crimson hue before he can begin to utter it, "Funny enough, I'm Elktaur. But you can call me something else for short!" He quickly blurts out the last sentence, raising his hand up shakily before letting it press against the side of his face while he turned away in embarrassment. The elktaur was Elktaur, you weren't about to question it and instead just gave your name in exchange for his name. For a moment, you catch him tensing up before relaxing like a ball of putty. You could bet he had a prettier smile too, you imagined the little laugh lines stretching upward and revealing the sweetest smile ever- "Just to be clear, you're saying all that out loud," Princess hummed as you both neared the Rift Gate, the sight of people lining up with fresh goods, ore, and whatever else they had on hand to go through the gate was all blank to you when she had said that your head spun. The elktaur had unlinked arms with Princess, turning to look back at the both of you, coughing into his sleeve before speaking; "I have to go manage the gate, make sure everything is running smoothly... Wouldn't want any mishaps to occur," he spoke a little more formally this time as he excused himself and you couldn't help but hope you'd get to meet him again. Yet, your thoughts were interrupted yet again when Princess yanked you close to her side again, "Looks like it's gonna be you and me," she teased while you both got into line. You can't help the smile that crept to your face before sinking into the side embrace, pulling out one of the scrolls the elktaur saved, "You mentioned wanting to know what I was researching, right?" Her eyes became wide, watching you unroll it intently, she nodded excitedly.

"Well, come closer, we got time to read it now."

lea salonga really popped off with her performance in this scene 😩🙏

Tfw w you find out @monsterfuckeroftheday has been closed for years so you can't post Mysterious Woman

Tfw Mysterious Woman is COMPLETELY absent from @lesserknownwaifus's lineup

Last of my current Centaurworld-isms amid ebook repair. Ft. here are @solettisketch's Fleur and @misfauxpas's Elsie, also my character Briamael.

Do you ship any one from centaurworld, if so who are they (i think I ship horse and rider because horse is practically human now lol)

Well, this depends on your definition of ship

Personally, the only couple that I definitely romantically is Zulius and Splendib! I shipped them in Season 1 and then when I watched season 2 and found out it was actually cannon?!? I was pretty happy with myself :]

I'm still deciding whether or not I ship the Beartaur with the Woman. Although I'm not quite sure yet. We didn't really get enough screen time of them together although they really did care for each other

I don't romantically ship horse and rider personally, only because in cannon, I think that they need some time to heal and get them selves together after a lifetime of war before heading into any romantic relationships. Although, I reckon that after finding all the minotaurs, rehabilitating them, then settling down, they could work things out together :]

Although my favourite friendSHIP was probably Ched and Durpleton, they just had the best vibes together and while they way they met was sad, the way Ched was willing to help the Durpleton despite not knowing him and has stuck up for him ever since
