Just Roll With It - Tumblr Posts

Troy is the dumbest fucking guy ever. He's such an asshole. An ignorant idiot. The worst kind of twink. He's dumb as a rock and only knows how to fucking toboggan.

I love him.

Can't wait for Runt to meet him and Blink. I'm way too invested. It's almost 3 am, I just finished the first episode, doesn't matter, who needs sleep? Not me. I only need Troy Lougferd.

If Troy was a real person I would fucking hate him and he deserves to get canceled and want him dead.

That being said, I think I might have to marry him

Twisted! Chip has been drawn!

Chip, or as I like to call him, Mr No-Morality, is, as his nickname suggests, pretty much apathetic to everything. Everything he does is for a laugh. To him, life is a game and he's in charge.

In this au instead of doing his best to continue on and find Arlin, Chip just kind of accepted life. He's a lot like Price in this au, but less openly evil, and more just looking to prank someone. Although, prank is a bit of a tame word for the things he does. He knows that life is cruel and intends to make sure that everyone knows that. He doesn't need to plan ahead to know that whoever got in his way will regret it.

Chip is somewhat more mature in this au, if only to save his own skin. He still left Price and burned down the place, but this time it was more because he wanted to go on his own and decided to leave a message of "Don't fuck with me". This time his great journey wasn't to find someone, he just intends on fucking with people as much as possible. He can still do magic, but it's no longer fire based, instead his spells and swords are more targeted towards the necrotic side of things (not that he can raise the dead, he's not THAT good at magic).

Guys I think Aeon got to Troy before Blink did. Think about it.

When Troy fell down the trash hole he immediately went unconscious. When Blink found him he was not unconscious. In fact, he was wandering around like he hadn't been for a while. He was pointedly described as roughed and dirtied and beat up, like he'dbeen wandering around getting into trouble.

Also the things Troy says "your my only ticket outa here" to which Blink respinds "why me?" And then troy says "I dunno, I'm not supposed to tell you" and then there's also the red flag of "no one's vhasing you, no one's using fir any ulterior motivation" which are the obvious ones, but I noticed some other more subtle ones.

"All I know is I fell down this freaken' hole, I woke in this wacky situation with all these cooky characters" he says this right before saying Blink is the only one who can help him. Why do I point this out? Because what "wacky characters" has he met besides Blink? He was unconscious, and then wandering around confused, Blink should be the first person that he's talking to. Who else did he talk to for that to be a description of his situation?

He also says "you have gotta run with me, if you wanna make it down here" when he just meets Blink. No hi hello, not even names yet. At this point Troy still thinks it's a convention. Currently, he's chased after Blink for seemingly no reason after proclaiming "you!" It very much seems like he's repeating something someone said to him in an effort to get Blink to trust him.

Lastly is the picture that was accidentally posted to patreon by the jrwi crew. It was in a post that was basically all the images from the first episode, but they accidentally included one from a future episode. The image is Troy sitting on a chair looking kinda nervous or indecisive while the rest of the picture is just darkness. Charlie has said that Troy gets worse during the campaign and also commits war crimes(?)

Here's what I think happened between Troy falling and Blink meeting him. I think the bear guy finds Troy, is like "wtf?" Gets a vixen over, they obviously recognize an uplander, so they fetch Aeon. Troy is a fucking dumbass and she decides she could use that to her advantage. She tells Troy that Blink, the owl man can help him get out, and she'll also help, so long as he reports Blink's actions to her. And maybe also brings Blink up to the surface with him (where he obviously won't come back from).

That's my theory, Troy unknowing villain arc. But idk, maybe I'm doing Troy Math wrong.

Twisted! Jay, She's here!

Jay was hard for me to figure out in the au, because I can't imagine that she'd act very differently. So I decided that she wouldn't be changed very much. I think the biggest difference is that she's more selfishly smart. Don't get me wrong, of the three of them, she is the one with the most actual morality! But a lot of her morals are basically just drilled into her from her navy training. She has a view of good and evil, and she's fully aware that the crew of the Albatross tip more towards the evil side.

In this au she immediately told Chip that she was a spy, because she pretty quickly figured out that if she betrayed him, he would kill her. So instead she decided to take the brutally honest take with him. Jay in this au rarely, if ever, lies to Chip and Gill. This quickly builds trust with them. It also means that she's the one who keeps them from just murdering people. She often tries to do the moral thing of saving people, and roping Gill in on it too.

Just because she's the goodest of the three, doesn't mean that she's a good person. If things are going wrong she'll do her best to save her own skin. She's so honest with the boys as a tactic to keep herself safe. In this au, Jay while honest, is very cautious and kinda closed off, no she won't lie, but she doesn't go out of her way to talk or share things about herself. In fact, she does her best to not piss them off. She is still a spy after all, even if they know about it.

Are you planning on writing a fanfic about your twisted riptide au?

While I don't currently have plans to write a multi-chapter fic, I do plan on writing oneshots! One of which I am currently working on, however I'm not the fastest writer. I'll make sure to post a link to it when I do have it finished and up on ao3.

WHERE ARE YOUUUUUU

Come home from the war wonderlust

come home

Accurate depiction of me rn

Drew Troy as a mermaid

Colour picking from his character sheet worked surprisingly well. Look at him. Love his darker stripes. Such a silly guy. If only his sponsors were waterproof.

I too would be an asshole if my name was fucking Tramilton

Episode three and Troy remains to be a homosexual

Can't believe the puzzle was completed by Troy and the Clockwork Soldier having gay sex

Gillion Tidestrider and Jay Ferin are canonically shorter than me and Chip is my height and I don't know how to feel about that

EPIC RAP BATTLES OF HISTORY

Chip! VS The Allegations!

BEGIN

(WHO WON? Who's next? YOU DECIDE!)

I did one google search so really I could be very wrong but Tritons (Gillion) can live up to 200 years old and humans (Chip and Jay) maybe get 100 if they are super lucky.

Imagine with me: Gillion aged 150, long ago lost his purpose as The Chosen One, on Ollie’s (a half elf so he will live quite a while) pirate crew, now fulfilling the old man on the ship role. Telling wild stories about his former co-captains that no one believes.

Made a one-shot for my twisted au that takes place right after the B.L.O.C.K. Where all the skrunkles are morally fucked up.

@annoyinglyobsessive

Hi hello I love your jrwi twisted au sm,,

What was their dynamic at first? Like, how did Chip react to being told Jay was a spy? How did Gillion settle with being under a captain??

Chip was honestly pretty chill with it. Jay joined and was immediately like "hey, btw I'm a spy" and because of her open honesty from the start Chip was like, "Okay, cool. Here are some ground rules and things you can't tell people, but everything else is free game"

I think Gillion really didn't like Chip. Because like, Chip acts like he's the shit, and Gillion who's only experience ever is being the center of attention was not okay with that. He'd openly disobey Chip’s orders and was a total asshole to him. Chip thought it was funny and knew that Gillion was powerful so he mostly let it slide.

However Jay and Gillion really got along. Jay is already used to dealing with Chip, and in her mind Gillin is too dumb to be manipulative, so that makes him easier to deal with. She also has military experience and morals line up pretty smoothly with how the Elders thought. So to Gillion she was pretty familiar.

It wasn't till after the duel that Gillion actually started considering Chip as a friend and also valued them both as real human beings and not just props.

Woo, long answer but I live answering questions about the sillies

"Hmm, what's that? You think I have a problem?"

*camera pans to my computer where I have created yet another riptide au and am now writing a full-length fic on it solely because I listened to a song and the themes lined up and I liked it a bit too much*

"Shut the fuck up! I don't have a problem, you do!"

Guys, hear me out. Horror Fae Au.

Chip and Jay are children who go out into the woods to play with their not-so-human friend Gillion. And things get worse from there

Art for the first chapter of my fic, The Woods. It's a modern fae au where Chip and Jay go into the woods and meet Gillion, a fae.

I was listening to The Chicken by Bo Burnham and ended up speedrunning a Jay Ferin B.L.O.C.K Animatic. I think the song really fits her.
