I Think The One Thing About The Chaotic Crossover AU That No One Ever Thinks About Is The Fact That It's

I think the one thing about the Chaotic Crossover AU that no one ever thinks about is the fact that it's an AU. An alternative universe.

The versions we see of these 4 oc's in the AU don't necessarily align 100% with their canon counterparts. Even if it does, for the most part.

If we take a second to actually compare wether there are any differences between the Chaotic Crossover AU versions of Molly, Mina, Milo and Charlie and their canon counterparts, we are able to easily see the difference.

The AU versions are considerably happier versions of the actual canon characters, simply because they have each other.

The AU versions are doing far better, because I erased their current canon problems for the sake of making them mindlessly have fun with each other. The Chaotic Crossover AU is practically just an elaborate excuse for me to see these characters being happy.

Because, for the love of god, they deserve to be.

But their canon selves haven't gotten that far yet.

Who knows when they will.

And it's not like I'm gonna wait.

THE CHAOTIC CROSSOVER AU-

"We're together in every universe" this "we'll always find eachother" that. What about this is the only universe that we're together in. What about there is no other way this could have worked. What about this is the only place that we have found each other. And goddamn it if we aren't going to make the most of it.

Under the cut is a post talking about the designs I made for this Halloween post right here.

Alright I'll explain the thought process behind these, in order in which I designed them in.

1.) Charlie

For Charlie I was torn between two ideas, cowboy or pirate. Due to my bias for cowboys I was leaning more towards that but eventually a certain someone, you know who you are, I ain't gonna tag you >:D reconvinced me to go for the pirate idea due to the thief part and then I realized that an eye patch would cover her right eye so I was sold. Designing her costume was pretty easy to be honest, I just kept adding stuff to make her look cool. Also, I had to make a Hawkshaw reference, I couldn't possibly resist once I thought of it. I'll probably draw her as a cowboy eventually though. Also, I let her have sharp teeth in the final drawing, as a treat.

2.) Cursed Treasure

Due to the lyrics I came up with I needed to give Charlie some sorta cursed treasure, so I thought a cursed golden Barnaboo statue would look cute and do the trick. The eyes and bow are meant to be gemstones and I made the face looks off so that the cursed part is a bit obvious.

3.) Milo

I actually sketched Charlie's and Milo's designs and finished them in the same day. Milo's was a quick one, I knew immediately that he had to be a vampire cuz he would definitely be something that's somewhat elegant. The hair looked a bit weird to me so I put the sunglasses there to cover it up a bit, and honestly he's pulling it all off better than what I expected. Also his teeth are perfectly goofy enough as to where I can't take him 100% seriously, which is how it should be.

4.) Parasol

The parasol was an afterthought after I had already finished Milo's design. It's inspired by the parasols that Draculaura and Poppy Pointer have. Although I screwed it up by making the handle black instead of white in the final drawing, I was going to fix it but when I started doing that I realized that there's already a lot of white in his design so I kept the black handle.

5.) Mina

For Mina I had to go for the obvious option, a witch, mostly due to lore reasons. It's canon that Mina insists on being a witch every year for Halloween because she told the culdesac kids that "Witches show their true form on Halloween." and she has to keep up that story, although her mom doesn't want her to have the same outfit each year, so she makes a different witch outfit each time. It's a pretty regular outfit with a witch hat slapped on top, but for Mina it perfectly does the trick.

6.) Molly and Mr. T. Bear

It was all fun and games until I started to design Molly's costume. The first idea I had for Molly was for her to be the Tooth fairy. Perfect idea, right? It's somewhat sleep related, Mr. T. Bear can be a tooth and it'll look cute. That's what I told myself. After 3 days of furiously looking through the web trying to find some sorta inspiration or color pallete I actually like, I gave up on the idea. I hated all of the concepts I made to the point where I got tired of the idea. Thing is... I didn't know what other costume to give her. The only ideas I could come up with were: a bed bug, sleeping beauty and Molly and Mr. T. Bear as each other. I didn't like any of those enough, so, in a moment of desperation I asked my friend for help. She told me that she noticed a pattern between the costumes I picked, that all of them were some sorta villans. Vampire, pirate, witch... she was right... I didn't do that on purpose. If she hadn't told me I would've never noticed it... Anyways, she basically suggested that Molly could maybe be a wolf. I was like oh she could be a werewolf because of the full moon and she's a moon you get the gist. And then, later on, when I was looking through the web I came across a drawing of the wolf from Little Red Riding Hood dressed as the grandma. That's when it clicked in my head. Molly as the wolf and Mr. T. Bear as Little Red Riding Hood. I was sold and I ended up liking the designs and finishing them on first try. The friend mentioned here wanted to get credited this way, since she doesn't have any socials.

And that's about it! As much as I dreaded the process because it took me ages, I do think the effort paid off. I'll definitely draw these again! :>

Pixel art for Mina's parents and Mina pixel art remake because for some reason I made the old version far larger than the other pixel sprites, and the whole thing looked wonky-

Also, explanation as to what I did for the designs of Mina's parents is under the cut, because I didn't mention it in the intro post.

Basically, Mina's mom and Mina's dad are opposites that are meant to go together and they match Mina at the same time.

Opposite attributes:

Red and blue color combo, tall and short, spiky hands and rounder hands, rings on opposite hands, the dad's pin could fit into the belt of the mom.

Attributes that match Mina:

Red and blue mixed together give purple which is Mina's main color, Mina has a two toned sweater (aka a sweater with the main color and a lighter version of the color next to it) and the parents have the same thing going on, Mina has black and white in her design which the parents also have.

And that's about it, it's simple but I like it!

Piper Intro

Part #1

[Character info is under the cut.]

Piper has an explosive personality, in every sense of the word.

She has anger issues that she tries to control but ultimately isn't successful at it, no matter how many motivational and calming monologues she tells to herself.

The only thing she somewhat remembers about her life before the circus is that she used to be an active smoker, which she isn't anymore because it's not kid friendly so Caine doesn't allow it. It was apparently such a habit that she asked if anyone had one shortly after entering the circus. Instead of cigarettes he gave her a bubble pipe. She was pissed about it at first but eventually it became a trademark thing she always carries around, looking at them calms her down and it entertains her a bit.

This is also where her name came from. She's named after the pipe. The bubbles, since she doesn't have a mouth, show up when she presses a little button on the pipe. The bubbles then float around her until they pop.

Due to the fact that she shows appreciation for the bubble pipe, Bubble has developed a very weird one sided crush on her. She doesn't care about an npc so she just pops him each time. But no matter how many times she rejects him, he doesn't give it up. (For the record this isn't a ship, I just thought it'll be funny-)

She doesn't like her digital form, because no one takes her seriously because of it. Despite the fact that she's older than most of them, at 46 years old. She doesn't try to help with anything anymore because no one listens to her anyways.

The more progressively mad she is, the more her fuse lights up. Whenever it reaches the end, her head explodes, leaving her without it until Caine spawns a new one for her. It can also go back to not being lit if she calms down.

Whenever she's headless she's tehnically able to talk, but only throughout silent movie text cards. While us, the audience, see the text card on screen, it appears as an actual physical card in the circus.

The explosions cause her to have a constant headache, which means that her being at least grumpy is always the default.

She often breaks things in a fit of anger, like the pipe, the text card... or anything that's close by.

Her head is detachable from her body and any action being done with it makes her feel dizzy.

Currently, she just tries to get it all over with each day as fast as possible or she tries to not get involved all together... which never really works out, much to her dismay. She's often used for cartoony jokes.

Her design is inspired by old black and white cartoons, all of those old bomb explosion Looney Tunes cartoon gags and basically any majorly mad cartoon character archetype ever. Her fancy demeanor is supposed to be a contrast to her opposing personality.

Me and @random-meme-bot have compiled a lot of Molly memes on my sideblog, so I put them all in this post cuz why not-
