Btw something I was thinking about... Winter King made an ice Marceline, but I don't think that was actually the Marceline from this reality, since there is a Princess Bubblegum like the one we already know...
especially because ice marceline is a child, and it has been millennia since the mushroom war!! and as was shown in the song flashback, they also went through the war and survived, theoretically
So now we have three options,
- the real Marceline is out there and has lost contact with the Winter King, or doesn't talk to him on purpose for whatever reason and he made this clone because he missed her;
- either the real Marceline is dead - or he just lost her somehow - and he decided to make an ice clone to fill the void left in his heart due to the loss of his daughter (I think this is the most likely due to the that he tells Simon about Betty);
- or the ice marceline was turned into ice and is really the marceline of this reality, whatever (since she has her bass and it's not made of ice, it's actually hunson's ax)
Some design ideas I had for an older "Ice" Marceline in my AUs
She's Simon's adopted daughter, specifically my versions of Snow Prince / Winter King Simon, and she's likely still going to be a demon and/or vampire!
❄️In my winter wonderworld all my loved ones are replaced with ICEEEEE❄️
.
What if wk also made an Ice Betty , terrible for his mental health yes but let the man cope ( ・ ᗜ ・ )
Like they're so attached to each other that even tho he lost his feeling for her when the madness was moved to candyqueen he probably didnt realize it and still go on with his plans of meeting Betty, only after a while that he truly realized the feelings gone that he let her melt:)))
P.s headcannon the ice elementals will start to melt when wk start to have doubts about their existence and will have to re-freeze them
Headcanons about the Winter Kingdom because you don't know this universe and The Winter King like I do (I have had him for 1 singular day):
- Him and his crown are almost fused in a way. They share emotions and some of the feelings that the Winter King has are actually the crown's
- His Betty never went through that time portal. She never went missing. Instead, she tried to convince him to leave the crown and its power. Because of this the crown and therefor the Winter King don't see her in a loving light
- He killed his Marceline. She was a teen, not as old as she is in the land of Ooo, and was questioning his actions and rebelling against him. There's a reason the Winter King keeps an ice version of her as a child and not a teen or young adult
- Finn and Jake don't exist! At least not like they do I Ooo. Not only because we don't see them but because the Winter King has been projecting his madness onto Candy Queen for hundreds of years. It's not too crazy to think that a lot of the people we're used to seeing in Ooo simply don't exist.
- Candy Queen's escalation in the episode from love to getting ready to kill is incited by a second Simon. The PB inside couldn't stand the idea of another Simon wreaking havoc in this world.
- The Winter King keeps his hair long so Ice Marcy can put little braids in it
- To the Winter King, even getting kidnapped is a bit of a game. He revels in having someone who is a bit obsessed with him (because he is deeply self obsessed. Dude was strongly considering making out with an alternate version of himself)
