Introducing: The Narrator.

This is to replace Aph talking to the viewers.

The Narrator is exactly who you'd think they are. They are here to narrate the story. The story that was supposed to go the way Aphmau had intended. When Aphria starts talking to them, they start to realize that maybe... the story isn't going to proceed how its supposed to. And honestly? It makes them quite pleased.

Though they are tired of Aphria's shit.

(The Narrator is honestly just a cat, a racoon, and a sentient eye in a trench coat.)

What a spacious trench coat we have =)

~👁 anon

Isn't it lovely?

Honestly Aphria may be just as sick of us as we are of her.

Laurence Barbie confirmed? - 🦝

I hope you understand that without context, this makes zero sense.

but if Barbie existed at the time, I’m sure he’d love it.

I think we have to talk about how Laurance is Aphs personal guard but Garroth is Phoenix drops head guard. There is something to be explored there.

"Ok, the Greek did invent sex."

-🦝

Raccoon, you are utterly unreal.

~👁 anon

There will be no sex scenes. None. It will be very vaguely implied when relevant to story or plot, but past that? No.

I don’t touch that. If characters do that, you find out in other ways. Such as pregnancy, or a character straight up telling another character(which I don’t know why they would but it’s a possibility I guess.)

Now that I’m done with that statement.

Yeah. I don’t fully know what to respond to this.

On a different note, I’m up for suggestions on relations! I already have a plan for Aphria’s endgame relationship, but background relationships not so much.

Let me know if there are any quotes a certain character says that you'd be sad to lose!

on the brand of being a cat, do you perhaps have any meowki I or meowki II headcanons?

- :3

Uh… Meowki and Meowki II are actually related. Yeah. Aphria is completely unaware of this, of course, but that’s just how it is.

As for the OTHER Meowki II… it’s literally a clone. Something went wrong with the golden lasso. Also the most danger prone cats known to man.

Who gives the ending of Mama’s Boy by Dominic Fike??? It’s been on my mind forever ;-; - 🦝

I responded to the wrong thing earlier, sorry-

Uh. Any of the Ro’Meave kids. Just because their mom is/was present in their lives, though she was unable to actually do any good for them past some love.

This also works for Travis, but his mom is dead now so…

i have a secret :o

- :3

Oh??

please share-

Who would you describe as a "freakish little creature"?

~👁 anon

Zenix.

I honestly think he should have had more bonding moments with the town in order to make his betrayal hurt more. I want him to almost regret it, but not enough.

MCD: Marigold Laurance is mistress coded.

Actually, I think this applies to most if not all versions of Laurance.

May be projecting atm lmao but who ‘mimics’ - or like adopts or copies another person bc they’re silly lol - 🦝

I feel like the safest answer is genuinely Aphria. Hear me out. She begins to adopt different things from the villagers of Phoenix Drop.

Dorian's habit of taking in people who need it, Khloe's love of animals, Molly's optimism, and so on.

do you have any shadowknight headcanons?

So! My second post on shadow knights! I'm not complaining, I freaking love the shadow knights-

Here's the first one: Shadow Knights

Because nothing was specified, I'm going to do both as a species and characters! I'm assuming this was for MCD: Marigold.

Shadow Knights as a species:

-Obsessive. Usually it's focused on revenge, a desire for power, just pure blood lust, and so on. But it affects each person differently, and they all can obsess over separate things. It is controllable and containable. Some shadow knights view letting your obsession take hold of you as weak, while others see it as the only way to live.

-Their eyes are reflective, like an animals. This is both in and out of their shadow knight form.

-Switching between forms is horribly painful, but they usually don't notice, as they are usually blinded by emotion to even process it. The ones in the nether stay in one form all the time, so they never even realize. The more control over when you transform, the more you realize how painful it is.

-Intense sense up grade. Increased hearing, sense of smell, touch, sight, all of it. It's part of the reason Laurance's sight was so easy to restore(even though it wasn't fully fixed). It's important to note that it's even better in shadow knight form.

-The sword and armor does actually just appear on them in that form, and it's impossible to take off. They can put the sword in its sheath, but that's the extent of it.

-Animals and shadow knights usually aren't the best mix, but it depends. Funnily enough, most domestic animals respond well to them. All wild animals, on the other hand... not so much.

-Not a single shadow knight was ever pure of heart. Someone with a pure heart cannot be turned.

Shadow knight character things:

-Gene has been messing with shadow knight recruit memories to make them more willing. For whatever reason(lore reasons I'll get to later), it wouldn't work on Laurance.

-Part of Sasha wanted Aphria to never find out about her being... y'know, dead, so she could live a peaceful life in Phoenix Drop.

-Zenix genuinely cared for Dorian and Aphria, but ended up deeming connections like that weak.

-Zenix never got to know that Dorian wasn't Garroth's real name.

-Gene's obsession is vengeance. Sasha is worried what he'll do with himself once he achieves it...

-Sasha's obession is simply living as she wants, however she wants. It used to be revenge, but she's moved past that.

-Zenix's obsession is power. He'll do anything for it.

-Vylad has disconnected himself from emotion so much that he doesn't have an obsession.

-Laurance refuses to admit he has one, because he isn't a full shadow knight. In truth, it's his humanity, and who is connected to that. His friends, family, and loved ones. What keeps him sane. That's what he'll lose his mind over. Funny, isn't it?

É um rato

(It is a rat)

- 🦝

… ratcoon.

Anyway-

Aphria, Traivis, and Laurance have all eaten rat, but only Aphria will do so again without much thought. This horrifies Garroth and Katelyn both.

ᗧ···ᗣ···ᗣ··

- <|:o

… would you mind if I called you hat anon?? Because I don’t really know what else to call this.

As for the vague symbols… I suppose I can give you content for the rewrite??? If anyone knows what that means let me know please.

The whole Alina thing will be altered. But I do want to keep her in, sort of. You see, in this rewrite, Aph and Aaron won’t have any romantic interactions, therefore making her not Aaron’s because… well it didn’t happen. So who’s is she?? I want her to stay subconsciously destructive, and what better way to do that than making her have a shadow knight as a dad?

I think you all can see where I’m going with this.

being madly in love with someone platonically is so ridiculous. hey man i think about you all the time. i wish you were here right now. talking to you makes me indescribably happy. i miss you. honestly what the hell

Garroth

Garr-wrath

Gay-wrath

Gay-rage

- 🦝

I mean... he's bi. So. Yeah. Uh. Character sexuality dropped?

I wanna learn how to swing dance with you and eye-on!!! (I’m on a silly brain rot about it). I’d say we could totally do the Lindy Hop but we couldn’t. I know my limits of dance as a person lmao - 🦝

I have no skill in memorizing choreography. None. Zero. Zilch.

… we need multiple legitimate dance scenes in Marigold. I know there were times where they danced, but I need dialogue, drama, and heartfelt moments during those because there is no way they just silently danced that whole time.

Oh no please do reel me in. It’d be pretty bad if I was left unrestricted and unsupervised lol - 🦝

♡

How much wood could they chuck in a woodchuck wood chucking contest?

Who would win?

(Aka, who’s the best at wood chucking wood chuck style. Does this make sense?)

-<|:>

Unfortunately I have no idea what this means. I’ve been trying to figure it out for weeks, I’m so sorry.

All it made me thing of was the wood cutting scene from Age of Ultron.
