Uhm... I can explain? My mind is a weird place... basically, things happened, I read a couple of fanfics, stared hard at the game for a long time and... well... now this AU exists...


15 year old Ashley J. Waters discovers a mysterious holographic screen one day which invites her to the Together Again Discord Group. Through this Discord Group she enters the Backstage, a strange realm that lies on the flipside of her world that connects to another that she cannot access (our world). Here she meets her Creator, Heisenmorg, and the various Voice Actors. Ashley soon starts discovering the secrets of her worlds Narrative as she spends more time with the Cast of Together Again, its Creators and the community.

But Characters of a World's Narrative aren't meant to access the Backstage, the two realms are meant to stay separate. Ashley and the Cast/Creators of Together Again now must work together to discover what anomaly caused this change in the first place.

But is it actually an anomaly that caused this? Or was it the work of something else? Something that happened in the canon Narrative that had far greater consequences that anyone first realised.

-------

Long story short, I got bored and when I get bored I get ideas. When I get ideas, weirdness abounds.

I came up with this Au while reading fanfiction online which portrayed game worlds connecting to our world through sites like twitter and discord. So, I looked at TAALFS and thought "Hold My Cola and Watch This." now we have whatever this is... This Au needs a bit more polishing and some fleshing out of what's actually going on before I commit to more designs. I took my main inspiration from Cosmic Horrors and Biblically Accurate Angels for the basic design ideas. I've already made a few people cringe at the multiple sets of eyes, so I'm on the right track.

For now I can give you the information on the design inspirations behind Creator!Heisenmorg... if you're seeing this Heisenmorg... I apologise...

Creator!Heisenmorg Human form:

Human form is mainly a disguise that Creator!Heisenmorg can don when he's wandering around in the world he created. No one can actually see him unless he allows it but his creations can see him all the time no matter what.

The reality breaking powers of a Creator are heavily restricted in that form except for certain abilities. Often times black static clouds your vision when you're looking at him, just seeing him provokes an uneasy feeling, like he's not supposed to be there...

(Mainly inspired by the "Heisentoy" figurine you can find in game.)

Creator!Heisenmorg Delusion Form:

Delusion form is the form that represents the lie of the Narrative, a lie represented by Harlan specifically. An adult version, a future that would never happen, a life never lived, though most would prefer the lie over the truth.

This form restrains and confines Creator!Heisenmorg's full power over the Narrative, the horror is mostly due to the warped familiarity this form portrays. It's a version of Harlan but there's something terribly wrong and fake about it, Ashley's used to this because she's spent a lot of time around her creator when he's in this form (they're best friends your honour). So it doesn't bother her much but she's still a little twitchy due to the reminder, meeting her and her mother's voice actors on the other hand...

Creator!Heisenmorg Verity Form:

Verity form is the unvarnished truth of Heisenmorg's Narrative, I chose Harlan and Lake for the Delusion and Verity forms because to me this is the most painful revelation of the game apart from... the other revelation, plus the duality of them. This form is just headache inducing to look at unless you've built up a tolerance or are on sort of the same power level like a Voice Actor or Night Guard (like Ashley), you're looking at the truth of your world.

When in the Verity form Creator!Heisenmorg can access the full unrestrained ability to warp reality, change the narrative, erase or create anything and overpower even the most powerful of the Narrative's entities. Including a certain demon that provoked this entire mess in the first place...

In the hype for both Pokémon Legends Z-A and The Magic Hour coming out this year, I thought it would be funny to make a Crossover/Au with Haiden as Xerneas and Lake as Yveltal.

(Had to adjust the image to fit the size limit of Gamejolt.)

(Camera quality is even worse and if you can’t read my handwriting, I apologise. You’re forced to learned joined up writing in school then it becomes your default font well into your adult years…)

Together Again: Galaxy’s Edge Au Comic

“Rest, Plans and a New Face”

Did I ever show Lake's final model without Handshaker/Harlan messing with his eye pupils? No?

You know that Au I created with a lot of help from @1ts_y0ur_b0y_L4k3_ ?

“After the Fire”?

Well… I made one where both Haiden and Lake became demons, Lake shielding Haiden from the Funland exploding.

Warning: Mentions of Cannibalism, Gore and Death.

Happily married...

Some of the shenanigans I got up to on the community drawing whiteboard, it’s not all of them and there will be more coming as soon as I get permission from the other people I drew them with.

Demon!Haiden’s behaviour is a mix of human, owl, bear and oddly enough that of a cats.

While he’s only cat levels of asshole around people he doesn’t like, there are certain other cat like behaviours he indulges in.

Lucas is not amused.
