YEAH DUDE
Marvel directors: Even when actors like Chris Evans do their own stunts, we make sure they’re VERY wired in and rehearse a lot before filming. We also add dangerous weapons in in post so there’s no chance of danger, even with a prop. :)
Good Omens directors: We’re making David Tennant DRIVE A FLAMING CAR and IF HE DIES, HE DIES
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, but just the memes
The Terror x His Dark Materials AU 🧭
This AU has been on my mind ever since I first watched The Terror and I finally turned it into drawings. The two worlds just fit so well together, both being set in the far North and the concept of souls playing such an important part (with the dæmons being the physical manifestation of a human soul and Tuunbaq devouring them). I also really love the decade-ambiguous setting and style of His Dark Materials and it was so much fun reimagining the Terror characters in this universe. And of course matching everyone with a dæmon was the best part.
Crozier's is a pallas cat because it looks gruff and is a solitary animal and used to harsh living conditions.
Fitzjames needed something long and sleek and elegant so I chose a serval cat.
I thought that Silna could be similar to the witches in HDM who have bird dæmons that can physically separate from their humans. I also think that the calm grace of an arctic owl really fits her vibe.
Tozer's is an animal of prey that can hunt and bite, so I chose a prairie wolf (I feel like the Marines would all have similar dæmons that are pack animals).
Edward's had to be something non-threatening and anxious, so I went with a flying squirrel that can hide in his pocket.
Giving Hickey a rat would've been too on the nose (lol) so I went with a sly weasel instead.
Anakin Skywalker
Whilla
S: Female
Species: ???
RL: ???
Many Jedi and the general public debated about what could she be, most agree it’s some creature from the outer rim. Some of the most religious Jedi have their own theories
She usually shifted into desert creatures and reptiles before settling
Settled at AOTC, when Anakin arrived to Tatooine to save his mother, it was the first time she had taken that form, not even she can explain why she choose that one
Is friends with many, but if you provoke her, she will snarl back at you, an uncommon trait for a daemon
Always ready to fight, ride or die
Freely talks with Ahsoka, Obi wan, Padme, the Chancellor and their daemons and the 501st (although Palpatine’s daemon feels off, she never talks)
Preens with attention but can be more serious than Anakin most of the time
Wants to cuddle with Ahsoka and Obi wan daemons but knows she can’t, so she is happy whenever they see Padme’s, she loves to cuddle with him, she is clingy
They plan flight strategies together, she often demonstrates the logistics, she never crashes, she lands with style
According to the holograms when Anakin kneeled before Sidious, his daemon looked a bit molty, had some patches without feathers. This had previously happened soon after the tusken massacre, Anakin believed it was because of the fight
At the fight at Mustafar she let Obi wan’s daemon go once, she couldn’t hurt her. Later when the duel was over and Whilla saw Obi wan walk away, he didn’t look back, she did
She got burnt by trying to pull Anakin away from the lava, her feathers caught fire and her soul lost hers
Padme has a white stag daemon, and yes, he gets fancy outfits too, they are both divas. She has to dress him.
Padme and her handmaiden’s daemons talk with each other
Of course he talks with Anakin and his daemon too
Whilla loves to attach pretty ribbons into his antlers, he loves it too
Keeping their relationship a secret gets more ridiculous x2, how do you act like you haven’t touched souls
Yes, I’m not being subtle
Species: Starbird
RL: Phoenix
I tried to keep the canon idea but give it a twist, this is the reason of why I started this AU
Is Anakin the chosen one?, we don’t know, what we know is that he is always plagued with conflict between light and dark so his daemon should represent that
A Starbird in the Light is remade by fire, a Starbird in the Dark becomes the ashes themselves. They are deeply connected to the force and they are affected more deeply by it
