Age Of Resistance - Blog Posts

I would just like everyone in the Dark Crystal fandom, mutual or not, to know that I love and appreciate you all. Yall are keeping me same thru all this 💕

“...and then the entirety of the Drenchen Clan charged into the wide cavern of the catacombs. Roars and Bolas bouncing off of the damp walls in a deafening declaration of war.”

Lol! The continuation of a previous post wherein our lovely Swamp Dwellers use their gills to their advantage to wreck the Skeksis.

I know Gurjin is our himbo supreme with a heart of gold, but I reeeallly want to see him get angry.

Please don’t repost my work :)

Quick question: How the fuck did Deet make those noises when pretending to be a monster?

Second question: Can all gelfling go full cryptid like that, or is Deet just special?

TULA

A quick drawing from a scene in the fan fiction I’m working on. I wonder what’s happening for her to be making such a mean face???

Tula and this piece of art are mine. Please do not repost.

Kylan is the Hozier of Thra. You will not change my mind.

If I was skekTek I would have helped the Gefling.

All of the other Skeksis were such bastards to him. Like, if you think about it, everything they gave to the Gelfling was probably a creation of the Scientist. Seriously, if he went to the Gelfling he'd probably have been well received due to his more gentle nature. I can't believe he was truly evil if he could care for that little bird of his. Also, it was SKEKSILS manipulative ass that even gave him the idea to drain things in the first place. That guy was honestly ready to get punished because his mind instantly went to 'I failed' rather than hurting other creatures for his own gain. I'd like to think he wouldn't have ever gone there if that HMMING ASS BITCH hadn't given him a second of validation.

Also- if Tek had left the other Skeksis, the Gelfling would have won with minimal casualty hands down. Tek was the smartest, and arguably most compassionate of them! If he had left, he would have been 100% valid in doing so. skekSa did it. Hell even skekMal didn't really care about them to a certain extent. The future of Thra would have instantly been rewritten if skekTek had just gone ahead and done what was best for himself. Instead of trying and failing to earn the respect of the others. (In his defense, abuse is a hard thing and everyone reacts differently. Which is another reason why this show is so good. Because so many characters go thru abuse and react differently and THATS SOME GOOD FLAVOR- but I digress).

I could keep going on about this, but i shan't rant any longer. Cuz now I wanna write an AU where Tek does leave, and omg I hate it when I give myself new ideas!!

Midnight Ramblins

I would like to think that some part of the Gelflings who got drained- that their souls actually remain in the crystal. I would also like to believe that Tolyn was the last of the castle guards to get drained. And thoroughly got his spirit ass beat by all the guards who were definitely aware that Tolyn was the traitor after the revolt ended.

Especially that pretty Vapran girl. Ngl she and he were probably a thing and I can't imagine the pain his betrayal must have caused her. Which only makes me hate that snitch even more. How are you really gonna let your girl get drained because you want a promotion?

Tolyn is a BITCH

Deryck

Drenchen of the toadiest caliber

Is a talented healer, but was raised as a warrior mostly. He’s a pacifist, or at least tries to be

He is the same height as Gurjin, but a few trine older. He’s stockier

Voice so deep and soft it will give YOU heart burn

Is often teased and called a soft-talker because of how quiet his voice is, but he’s more straight forward than even Laesid sometimes

Fell in love with Kylan the second he tried his broth

Their voices resonate so well!!

Will protect Tula with his life

Can’t dance, and will not try

Naia had a crush on him until she realized he always stared at Gurjin more than her

Is an okay swimmer, he likes to sit at the bottom of whatever water systems hes near to and just rest

Helped Gurjin with his injuries after the battle of Stone in the Wood

HEALED MAUDRA FARA because fuck her death I refuse to accept it

Hair is really curly when not dreaded

He knows how to sew, and is quite good at it

Big soft boi. WE STAN

Tula

Grottan!

Maudra Argot’s chosen successor and raised by Argot from a baby.

Acts as a big sister figure to a lot of the younger Grot kids. Like Amri and Deet.

Was very sad and worried when Deet and Amri had to leave.

Led some of her clan members away during the Arathim attacks in Domrak and acts as a diplomat between their species after the dust settles.

Is colorblind (tritanopia), and it causes many fashion problems when she gets above ground. Someone, please, help her.

Shopaholic that will haggle vendors to the point of insanity.

Has a crush on Freckles

Has a fear of Nurlocs

Loves dancing more than anything. Convinces someone from every clan to teach her their dances and picks them up easily.

Can’t be a mom friend, because she’s easily roped into shenanigans.

Has many of the same mannerisms as Argot, so just let that sink in.

S A S S Y

Tries to flirt and fails miserably every time. She can dish it out, but if someone reciprocates the behavior she panics and shoots the finger guns at them before running away.

Honestly she’s an adorable mess.

Tula and Amri BROTP!

True

I think SkekMal was taken away to soon
