DARKPAW IN NATURECLAN HOURS :))

Part 2 & 3 of my Kid Icarus Warrior Cats AU~

Darkkit decides that he is own apprentice and goes to learn things on his own outside of LightClan territory. His venture is stopped suddenly by Star Pantherblaze (Pandora), who sees him as an opportunity to get rid of LightClan. She kitnaps him and takes him to her camp.

Darkkit tells Pitkit to go get help, but Palelight is very reluctant to leave her clan vulnerable or bring everyone to fight. She makes a difficult decision and let's CalamityClan keep Darkkit hostage.

[[ Darkkit will remember that. ]]

Darkkit is angry (and afraid), and Pitkit is sad :(

This was originally gonna go a different direction, where Pitkit sneaks out of camp too and rescues Darkkit. Palelight realizes he snuck out but can't go after him, so she guides Pitkit. Pitkit climbs a tall rock, hides in the bushes, then jumps out at Pantherblaze, causing her to drop Darkkit (who clings to the branches). 

Pitkit bites her neck and Darkkit jumps down and shoves Pantherblaze into sharp rocks, which takes one of her lives. The kits run off, and Darkkit proclaims that they defeated Star Pantherblaze. 

They are actually two moons old here, so this draft was stretching it a bit lol. Even if in KI cannon they could definitely throw hands with a god despite being the size of a small child, they are tiny kits here so that unfortunately doesn't apply xD

They do have slightly unnatural strength as they grow older though. Strong bois :)

YOOOOOOOOOOO I'M FREEEE

I AM DONE WITH MY FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE

Here's the first concept sketch I made for another Kid Icarus AU :)

Idea: After the events of KIU, Pit starts to make some changes to his schedule and picks up a hobby, as per Dark Pit's suggestion. He becomes an inventor/craftsman with the help of Dyntos and makes himself and Pittoo a pair of functional wing enhancers made with pegasus feathers. The devices allow them both to fly on their own. Here Pit is watching Pittoo take off with his set of wing enhancers for the first time ^^

This AU is called Surface Pressure and Pegasus Feathers! (also the name of a fanfic I'm working on for it :)

The first part of the title is because it's fun to imagine the song "Surface Pressure" from Encanto as Pit venting to Dark Pit lol. I scripted an animatic, but decided showing how the lyrics relate though a fanfic would allow me to show this concept sooner lol)

More fun ideas in the fanfic:

-Pit and Dark Pit get pegasus friends and name them ^^

-The bois learn how to read & write

-Dark Pit is determined for Pit to find his own way to deal with his issues (and is also really good at persuasion)

-The fic is essentially about what it takes for Pit to fully learn "philautia" (regard for one's own happiness/self-love.) He has a lot of agape (Selfless/unconditional love), but it needs to be balanced :)

Surface Pressure and Pegasus Feathers

Surface Pressure and Pegasus Feathers Chapter 1: Worth & Service (My Purpose) Ahh, nothing like a nice long morning stroll through Skyworl

Meme moment in the fic:

Just realized that if I was in the gravity falls universe, Bill would absolutely not want to possess me because I have visual snow syndrome (not very intense, but still noticeable.) It's like seeing through a static-y TV screen everywhere. There's black and white & red and blue specs in the static. Most of the time, I don't process it there out of normalcy, but at night time, it's extremely visible.

Definitely wouldn't make a deal with him regardless, but bro would Nope the heck out even if he managed to possess me anyways lol

Haha, glad you enjoy the headcanon too! :D

He is indeed the king of treat yo'self, self love is v important ^^

School threw a dent in my plans of drawing/editing this idea today, so I'm sharing this here cause I think you in particular might find it amusing too since you headcanon Dark Pit as Aro :)

I like to imagine that in modern times what Dark Pit does on Valentine's day is buy himself a TON of chocolate lol (There is tons of it, so why not)

The king deserves it

Here is the vine that prompted this headcanon lol: https://youtu.be/qFDmE3ePzW8 

(wish it was cut, but it's pretty hard to find lol. The vine is very relatable though xD)

SKJGDHJHFF NO YOU’RE SO CORRECT i love this lmaooo

he’s the king of treat yo’self

MANIFESTING

Here's a Murder Mystery I drew after the posting of MSA The Future 4 years ago! (WOAH)

Always ment to finish, revise, or redraw it, but never got to it. My plan was to post it back then, better late than never I guess! XD

Still cool to look back on! Currently working on my own short film for my senior year of college, time is wild ^^

Hazel and Cosmo & Wanda: my MLP Edition! ~*

Hazel is a crystal earth pony!

- She loves this fact about herself because her hooves are crystal. Her cutie mark relates to her passion for geology and the colorful crystals are representative of her fun and creative personality!

(Plus, I put that shiny out-of-this-world rock in the design, love that gem.)

Fairyzie Lore

- Combining the words Fairy and Breezie since this is a powerful subspecies of breezie! I alternatively thought of "faebreezie" but I can't stop wheezing every time I read that name, so I went with Fairyzie instead ~*

- Decided that fairyzies customize their antennae the way they want them to look with magic. Before then, they have a default antennae look that they are born with, influenced by their parents. They also take the shape of objects around the baby sometimes after birth (Peri's example here: a baby rattle).

Cosmo

- Gave him a comet-like antennae and cutie mark. His cutie mark is cosmic and swirly, fitting to a powerful being (*cough* Von Strangle *cough*). But instead of a mystic spiral, it's a silly swirl in the cosmos :]

Wanda

- Her cutie mark is her wand antenna and a W (for her name) crown above it, surrounded by stars (space and wishes). I feel it's representative of her way of doing things & her fairyzie godparenting.

(Wand antenna-like cutie marks are fairly common amongst godparents and those who like magic, with both her husband and son having hints of this in their marks.)

I had to resize Cosmo & Wanda a lot, so here's the drawing before shrinking them + Hazel by herself too ~

ALSO, SOME EXTRA FAIRYWINKLE-COSMA FAMILY CONTENT!

I was struggling to draw all three characters, so I started sketching these for an extra serotonin boost :]

(1) Baby Peri & Cosmo (Proud dad moment)

(2) Four year old Peri (Please don't put him in an insect collection)

(3) Wanda, speaking to Hazel & Dev: Peri used to curl up like a kitten when he was 4. He called himself "Dapper Cat" and staged a whole dramatic cat tale with Irep

Peri: !! NOOOOOOO

Wanda: It was very cute. He learned his favorite song is "Posin'" when I turned on some music for him to dance to

Fun Facts

- Hazel's reaction afterwards would be "Aww", and Dev says, "That sounds lame."

- Peri really likes electro swing music

- Peri could imitate a kitten 100% accurately and Irep could not. So he taught him and it ended up going like this

That's it for now! Really wanna draw Winn and Jasmine though, who won't be ponies & instead other creatures :]

Star Vineblossom (Viridi) design :)

Working on Darkpaw in NatureClan drawings and wanted to show this in case the drawings take longer than expected lol.

She is smol and annoyed

KIU MLP designs! Because why not, lol

Pit & DP's cutie mark designs ~

Some things I put into consideration for their cutie mark designs~

Pit: (Palutena bow) arrow pointed towards a circular symbol of light, laurel crown leaves, wings, and a heart :)

Dark Pit: (Silver bow) arrow, his wings (which represent the freedom of flight), a broken laurel crown (doesn't listen to the gods/does what he wants), and broken mirror glass (he wants to find his own identity) ^

Fun facts in this mini au: DP came out of the mirror as a blank flank. He represents Pit's desire to have a bit more independence and be free from his responsibilities sometimes, so this was reflected as someone with someone with complete freedom to choose their path/destiny.

DP believes cutie marks restrict someone's path for a while, but learns later on this isn't the case. Once he realizes that, he earns his cutie mark later on. I imagine Viridi got a little bit too bossy one day and DP made sure she remembered that he's not Pit & that no one can control him. (Laurel crowns were snapped that day.)

He's very outspoken and this litttle pony will sass you & snipe you at point blank with his staff (so be careful xD)
