My canonical ending to the AU I've been holding on to for 9 years now. It started as a little sketch for fun, and then over the course of 4 months when I wanted to, it just kept going and going.

Rees is the unfortunate night guard, Jessica, the daytime hostess, and Sam is my version of Phone Guy and the manager of the rundown location from the first game. I created this story as my explanation of who could possibly want to try and survive 5 nights, and this is back when there were only 2 games. An AU and characters I still love very dearly.

mog!!

I've seen this drawing float around on Pinterest before, thought I'd post it here :))

This piece is super old, around ten months to be exact. I kind of fell out of my Nevermoor obsession once Silverborn got postphoned for like the third time. But I'm back at it again!!

wdym that they aren’t the definition of “anyway don’t be a stranger.”

RANDOM NEVERMOOR QUOTE:

Ezra Squall, to Morrigan: Nevermoor abandoned me.

Ezra Squall: and betrayed me

Ezra Squall: and exiled me for over a hundred years

Ezra Squall: do you know what I call that?

Morrigan:

Morrigan:

Morrigan: what?

Ezra Squall: True love

Morrigan: *slams head on desk*

ramble about your Ezra Squall redemption arc please?

Absolutely- id be very happy to! I'm quite aware that im about to sound like this:

but you asked so this is what you signed up for /j

Soooooooo it basically wormed its way into my head because of the one time where Squall said something like 'We're wundersmiths we take all of the blame and none of the credit' and I was like, okay sir are you speaking from experience? What was the 'credit' of your actions? And also the mention of the shared enemy, which I at the time took as meaning partially something in the republic that threatens Nevermoor, and partially something to do with the system, the Wunderous Society and like, all the people in charge who are against wundersmiths and are trying to hold Mog back.

Along with these two things, I'd like to think that 100+ years of banishment are long enough to rethink your actions and become a better person.

So, I'll explain it in a way that wont take an entire essay to write out. Basically it goes in my head that, Courage Square was, at least partially an accident, and over 100 years the story got skewed, and the current population turned against Ezra and the Wundersmiths, while the population at the time knew how, Wundersmiths ultimately were trying to help Nevermoor. Courage Square was bad, which is why Ezra was banished, but he wasnt killed. After a tragedy, it would be expected that he'd be punished, but at the time, the Republic as we know it didnt exist, and so being banished out there was a very bad fate, but it was definitely better than death.

Ezra went through a, lot of bad mental states during the first few decades of his banishment, but as he grew older, he came to terms with both his past actions and his current situation, though he still feels guilty about it.

In my head, the Wundersmiths were originally established to protect Nevermoor from the weird creatures of the darkness that the Wunderous Society takes care of now. Those creatures are attracted to Wunder. When Ezra was banished from Nevermoor, there were no longer any Wundersmiths in there, and so WunSoc had to step up and find a way to cover for him. Meanwhile, Ezra, who still loves Nevermoor, establishes Squall Industries, partially to improve conditions in the Republic and partially to provide a bigger, brighter beacon of wunder to attract the majority of the dangerous creatures to a place where he could still handle them. In this same thought, the Hunt of Smoke and Shadow werent something he created, but a group of these dangerous creatures that he managed to tame.

On the same subject are the other cursed children, those who, gather wunder but are unfortunately dont have the gift to control it. The creatures of the darkness, who chase wunder, hunt down these children to take the wunderous energy from them, which they dont survive. Ezra does his best in this situation, but one man can only do so much, and the creatures are relentless.

When he first discovers Morrigan, he's not exactly sure what to do. He tries to just get her as an apprentice through the usual means in the republic, but after a certain mad ginger got in the way he sent the Hunt after her, himself being busy trying to help the other cursed children, but we all know that that attempt didnt work. Ezra, knowing about the wunder critical-mass gather-too-much-without-using-it-makes-bad-things-happen thing, so he used the gossamer to get back into Nevermoor.

Having to enter and view Nevermoor again, even though not physically, took a bit of a toll on him, plus having to interact with someone new while being himself, which is not something he's had to do in a long time. He's also never, had to teach anyone before.

From there, I imagine he goes from frustrated and angry, to irritated but starting to get attached to Mog, to actually being a genuinely good teacher (aka the floof you saw in my drawing, who doesnt sleep nearly enough but still tries his best to be a good person), who is Tired™ and also just as chaotic as Jupiter when he wants to be.

Thank you for listening to my ramble- I can happily expand on anything if anyone happens to like this train of thought. I have further specifics on, basically everything, but this is a solid overview.

Round 1

People are afraid to merge on freeways in Los Angeles.

-Less Than Zero, Bret Easton Ellis

In the prison under the castle Allaze, in the dark, moldy cells where the greatest criminals in Mellinor spent the remainder of their lives counting rocks to stave off madness, Eli Monpress was trying to wake up a door.

-The Spirit Thief, Rachel Aaron

The journalists arrived before the coffin did.

-Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow, Jessica Townsend

I love making theories with nothing to back them up like the idea that Squall will dis to save Mog/nevermoor. I don’t even want it to happen (bc I would cry and never recover) but I’ve just accepted it as a fact in my head with nothing to back it up

Mɪᴋᴀʏʟᴀ Pᴇɴ̃ᴀ

Age: 10 Birthdate: July 10th, 1977 (Cancer) Height: 4″1′ (124.46 cm) Weight: 50 lbs (22.7 kg) Ethnicity: Hispanic (Mexican/Spanish/Choctaw heritage) Animatronic of choice: Freddy The only child of Shikoba and Yvette Peña, Mikayla was a shy, reclusive, and small young artist. Unable to find friends at school, and her parents fearing she would be a permanent homebody, they enlisted her into a local girls’ softball team against her wishes to get her out of her shell. Although unhappy at first, she met Jessica Crowe, a stronger and more outgoing younger girl on the team who took Mikayla under her wing. The two became inseparable, and loved spending their after-game dinners at the local pizzeria, Freddy Fazbear’s. Mikayla’s favorite animal was bears, so she was instantly endeared by Freddy himself, too. Meeting weekly at the pizzeria became the girls’ ritual, even after softball season was over. It was only natural that Mikayla’s 10th birthday be set there, on July 10th, 1987. Sadly, Jessica caught a summer cold and could not attend her birthday, and although disappointed her best friend could not attend her big day she knew they would meet again to makeup for the lost time in a week. However, this was never to be. Mikayla went missing, along with four other children, at the location that weekend, never to be seen or heard from again.  This tragedy caused Mikayla’s parents to go through a messy divorce in trying to accept the death of their pride and joy Mikayla. The same softball team Mikayla was once apart of stopped attending the pizzeria in fear of more daughters to go missing. Jessica could never forgive herself for not being there to protect Mikayla, wishing to trade places with her small friend who deserved a longer life than her. The only joy Jessica could find was still in that same pizzeria, getting a job there to aid in her denial that she will find Mikayla after twelve years to play again and make up for lost time. The pizzeria gave her distraction from her all-absorbing self-hatred and regret, taking her back in time to be a 9-year-old again with the children who held parties there. Little did she know Mikayla was with her the whole time, singing for her and her patrons from center stage.
