 "oh Arti" a text bubble reads on the first panel, being spoken by someone outside of the image. Someone's bloody hands cup his face, and he leans into it with a somber expression. Arthur has messy hair and a stubble, with dark eyes. the second pannel has no text, and shows that the speaker in the last panel, and the one who was holding Arthur's face, is Kayne. he is smiling, and has long black hair tucked behind long elvish ears. he is wearing a tailcoat suit with a cravat rather than a tie. text above panel 3 reads "you want him back" the third pannel is a close up of Arthur's eyes. he's crying and looking to the side. text below the panel reads "don't you?" fourth panel is Kayne speaking "Well that can be arranged Blondie" he is holding up a bloody, clawed hand to guesture casually. in the fifth panel there's a close up of an upset Arthur's snarl "I don't" he says "that bastard can deal with Hasur by himself." the sixth is panel is Kayne again, looking pleasantly surprised. "oh?" he says "then what do you want?" the seventh panel shadow the text "I want you to teach me to play the keys." in front of a backdrop with piano keys forming a spiral going down. Kayne bends down in the eighth panel, offering his hand. "prove yourself to me and I will. take my hand, will you?" panel nine shows Arthur taking Kayne's hand. a darkness surrounds the image ominously. there is panel to the side, which is the tenth panel. you would have to flip your device your tilt your head in order to properly read it. Kayne and Arthur exit a crack in space into a new universe, holding hands with Kayne leading Arthur, who is holding the dagger given by Kayne in Carcosa. "Go ahead Arthur" Kayne says "Kill him." the panel moves past them, growing lighter, less warped and twisted by pain, to light, untouched and pure. they seem to be in a house, and theres a portrait, with a smiling Arthur and his wife. their eyes are scribbled out. the panel keeps going to show Arthur's target. a smiling, joyous, and happy Arthur, well kempt and untouched by the horrors, playing the piano to Feroe, who's back is facing the reader, but she seems to be shouting in joy. Arthur is wearing suspenders, and faroe is wearing a dress, and has wild fluffy hair in ringlets.

Little au concept:

What if in one of the different universes, Kayne explained more about his abilities when he first met Arthur, just to see what would happen. In this universe, john was the one who suggested that if things don’t work out Arthur would die and they would work things out in the dark world, In this universe John was the one with the knife, and in this universe, Arthur disagreed with John’s backup plan. When John drove the knife into Arthur’s neck Arthur felt betrayed despite living, and Kayne, after having so many similar conversations, assumes Arthur would want John back, and is surprised when he stands corrected.

Arthur decides that he’s sick of the world, sick of being betrayed by John and sick of himself, so he asks Kayne to help him do the same think Kayne once did. Kayne, intrigued and curious on what would happen if a mortal did so, agrees so long as Arthur can stomach the worst of it, so he takes Arthur to a universe where Arthur is happy. Sure he still experienced loss, not Faroe is alive and his pride and joy, where Arthur’s absence would be felt and hurt the person to whom he holds most of his regrets.

A Galahad character playlist (based mostly on me filling in the gaps of his lore and very little of the actual album.) here is a discription of each song in the context of the playlist

Sinking Ships: A father’s dying words to an infant Galahad as he wanders the rusted desert.

Wherever I May Roam: Galahad’s time with the traveling caravan. They were far from a merciful group, and when not interested in trade were prone to shoot and loot instead.

Nobody: Galahad meets The Hanged Man, who is on Ends Justify The Means, and falls just a little bit in love with it. This causes problems in the long run because Merlin is a manipulative ass on EJM, especially with such a big end goal. He convinces Galahad to leave the caravan and work for sheriff stone as a blacksmith, knowing that in several years Sherrie stone will get overthrown. May add a song if I can find one that fits to split this one’s meaning more.

Cowboys From Hell: the Pendragons roll into town and kill sherif stone. Galahad survives thanks to a warning from Merlin.

Persian Enclave: and so Camelot becomes a home in a wasteland.

Never Love An Anchor: Galahad loves Merlin, but feels that since Merlin is a religious figure to him and the people in his church, it’s something he can never have, and is wrong for loving.

The Diving Bell: Merlin tells Galahad to sit on the siege seat, and Galahad does it due to faith and love and misplaced trust.

Hellfire: do I even need to explain this one? It’s exactly what’s on the label.

Dark In Here: the trip to the lower levels of the station to get the GRAIL

All The Dying: the deaths in the group take their toll

Suicide Solution: Galahad dies firing squad style to a bunch of turrets.

I Ain’t Done: Ghostlahad haunts the aurora

Brass Goggles: Galahad gets necromanced by raphaella

Glacier House: galahad is finically forced to process his emotions and he’s very pissed at the fact Brian was manipulating him and it didn’t even save his world.

Also expanding on this, what pieces of pop culture, scientific knowledge, literature, and/or history would you keep?

The world has ended due to wars and magic, what words are you keeping, what words are you removing, and what words are you adding to the English language?

I believe that no work is entirely original, therefore people are absolutely free to steal ideas from me as long as you add your own flavour to it. And also if you see an oc of mine you like? Take ‘em an spin them around in a blender till they are a different consistency with the same flavour. See a species I made? All of them are open, make silly little goobers. Like the colors in a piece of mine? Color pick them!

So long as you bring something new and wonderful to the table and give credit where credit is due I will probably bounce off the walls knowing you took inspiration off of me
