Hihihi! You have a lot of neat AUs!! I’d really like to know about the Candy Sphinx one!!
YES EHEHEHEHE IVE MADE A LOT OF DESIGNS FOR THIS ONE ALLREADY! Basically, this AU just makes every character into a candy sphinx because I love them. The canon reason for it existing is that during the GOLB fight of the finale, both Goliad and Stormo somehow ended up in the time room when GOLB was releasing a burst of energy. Stormo wished that there were more of him and his brother’s kind, so they didn’t have to be alone (much to Goliad’s chagrin) to which this version of the universe was made. Obviously because I’m not normal about Petrigrof I focus a lot on them but every character exists in the universe!
In all honesty this entire AU is just an excuse to draw more weird fucked up cat creatures but shhhh…
A lot of the characters’ families and dynamics are slightly changed, for example, Marceline is Simon and Betty’s biological kit, Finn and Fern are brothers from the same litter rather than being the same person (or sphinx, in this case), and I may have done a wee bit of universe-bending to allow certain characters like Fionna, Winter King, and Farmworld Finn to exist because I WANT TO DRAW CHARACTERS AS CANDY SPHINXES
These are all the designs I’ve drawn in color thus far! Oh, and have some sketches!
This AU is very much a Self-indulgent excuse to draw fucked up cats, but it does have some light lore :3 I’m gonna make a chart explaining the lineage of all the sphinxes soon, since it’s not the same as Canon Ooo…
Click for Quality btw!

Goliad is insane.
Heya Void,
So, I rewatched Goliad and i just realized how impactful it is for the main casts character development.
Quick summary, So, in this episode Princess bubblegum, soon after realizing she will die one day after being taken over by the lich, chooses to create a Candy sphinx, Goliad, with her DNA. She's too tired to take care of her so Finn and Jake do, and she starts getting the wrong idea and hijinks ensues.
I'm gonna address four things Goliad, Princess bubblegum, Jake and Finn.
-Goliad
Goliad is a creature known as a "Candy Sphinx", created by princess bubblegum as an heir, Her mind, having just been created, is not aware of the world around her and needs assistance much like a child. But after reading Princess bubblegums mind and being threatened with "dismantling" looses her mind a little bit.
However, I think Goliad would have turned out this way no matter what.
When Stormo was created at the end of the episode He immediately knew right from wrong, so it's literally in Goliad's DNA, Bubblegum's DNA, to use her power in a more chaotic way.
-Princess Bubblegum
In this episode we see an extremely fragile princess bubblegum who is trying to manipulate her rulership after she passes by creating a sphinx. Now, I think it's extremely important to realize what sphinx represents "The sphinx has no history of real living existence, but exists only in art and literature, representing human desire for that which is greater than themselves, both in terms of the body and the mind." New world encyclopedia, She Created something that very literally symbolizes her desires and what she wishes she could be.
-Jake
Jake in this episode is pretty standard iwl he gets excited about teaching about good v. Evil and how to be a proper leader but gets RIGHTFULLY mad at the candy children after they attempt to CRAWL INTO HIS BRAIN and says some of the funniest lines in adventure time. But then Goliad repeats these phrases, because Goliad had never been introduced to patience before anger.
-Finn
Finn gets pretty messed in this episode, not really on a surface level but mostly mentally.
Goliad throws Finn around an obstacle course without his consent, Goliad tries to pry into Finn's mind (which she fails at because finne has one of the most repressed minds in ooo) and then he has a SON, Stormo, which he has to immediately come to terms with the fact that he never actually talk to or hang out with or anything.
P.S However, I like to believe that sometimes Finn sits with Stormo and Goliad and just kinda listens to the little wavelength noises that they make in their eternal struggle.
Great episode, I love it alot.
