Eli Shane - Tumblr Posts
It only makes sense in the show, otherwise it sounds gay.
i hope no one’s done this yet
my new reason for saying men ain’t shit is because every new guy around eli shane’s age that comes into his life is an evil jackass who eventually betrays him/just straight up ditches him and i can’t keep seeing my boy get hurt
i love eli but i need his stupid bisexual ass to stop just letting in cute boys who coincidentally run into the shane gang on their missions
So Im re-watching the full seasons of slugterra, and I got the idea to draw aki dressed as eli shane, because honestly slugterra used to be my favorite thing to watch when I was a wee lil one, and so it just seems logical I combine it with my current show!
SlugTerra Au Explanation! (Kinda told in a story way-)
Alright- so Here’s the explaining about The Au, kinda going more into it, And what changes and stuff, but only for the present stuff, basically this Au is a slightly more peaceful slugterra, the 99 caverns since…yknow- no ghouls? Expect for the ones in the eastern cavern cuz yknow- Emperor taking over and stuff…(I’m still developing this Au a bit! So still figuring things out I guess-)
@ariaterramoon I’m glad your loving the Au! I’m actually very happy! I know I already said it but thank you!! Love your artwork!
✨😭
So, now here’s The Info part! ( this is gonna be a little long-)
. . .
So, While being trained by unbeatable master, after a duel, taking a break, Thaddius is slightly injured, on his hand and Will happens to notice, a small little argument that was started by Thaddius pursues, with Thaddius claiming he was fine and didn’t need a Shane’s help, though after a display of genuine worry and concern by Will, it makes Thaddius suprised, as he’s used to no one caring about him and looking after himself.
He finally allows Will to help him, even if he’s slightly annoyed.
After this, a small conversation starts with them, and Will offers if he wants to be friends, Thaddius is hesitant, and confused, as he’s never had a friend before, but then decides to accept.
Their friendship-
After some time in training, Will discovers that Thaddius is mostly alone, having no place to stay, since he usually just figures something out, Will suggests that he could stay with him back at the Shane hideout, wanting to offer him shelter, but also thinking it would be good to have company, Thaddius thinks it’s pointless, since he can manage by himself and dosen’t need it, but will insists, and after enough nagging, Thaddius finally accepts. He seems like he doesn’t care, but once he sees Will smile and immediately lead him by grabbing his hand, He sneaks a smile, but hides it before Will noticed.
(He dosen’t like showing smiles, he feels weird about it-)
Meeting jimmo shane-
Of course it does not go well, once at the hideout, and some time passing with Will introducing a Video game to thadidus, and what it is, jimmo walks in, Will takes this moment to introduce the two, Unaware of how they previously met, jimmo and Thaddius do not get along, especially thaddius, still having that anger for being locked away for 6 months, while jimmo just thinks he’s still a criminal- bad guy yknow? Thaddius TRIES To get along with jimmo, just for Will’s sake so despite the tense tension, after a while of staying with him, Thaddius feels like he has a home kinda, for once he doesn’t feel alone, because he has someone, someone who cares about him.
🥲
So bassicly Thaddius learns to have fun, he grows accustomed to this, and actually learns to smile naturally, he’s still bit of a grumpy tough dude, but he’s more caring- And kinda gets worried when Will gets injured or anything, since wills like the only person he’s got-
Selection:
When will is picked, instead of it going like how cannon went, Thaddius feels worried of not seeing Will in a while, but with some reassurance from Will, he calms down, and feels a bit proud of him, they say goodbye as Will walks up the stairs, while Thaddius heads off, but not to slag rock cavern, not to viggo dare, to what he calls home, The home where he will wait for Will.
When will finishes his training, they reunite again. And they share a good hug, they were not enemies or rivals anymore, Thaddius was fine with that, and Will was happy with that, they share a friendly duel, just for old times sake.
(WOO OK- that’s out the way- so here’s some things about the Au!)
Will dosen’t call Dr.Blakk that, he just calls him Thaddius- as dr.Blakk dosen’t like it when he uses the new title of name, since he sees Will a good friend-
Tad does not exist in this Au-yeah so Thaddius was just focused on his projects and work that he didn’t have time to yknow, fall in love, get children, he didn’t really have interest in that-
😅
Twist is not evil in this Au! When the incident happens where his dad dies, Will Is unsure of what to do, and he lets dr.Blakk take care of him, after a bit, dr.Blakk gives him off to a lovely couple who are happy to take care of twist, so twist bassicly found a family to take care of him- (so in the future he dosen’t hate the Shane’s- still kinda nervous due to yknow the incident that happened with his father-)
Of course Dr.Blakk dosen’t ghoul slugs in this Au- he just tries to make them stronger in other way’s, yknow increase their strengths, while working on other things- (so using his power for good-) (he still kinda dosen’t really care about slugs, but he’s less heartless this time thanks to Will)
Dr.Blakk found burpy, and gave him to will- (Dr.Blakk and burpy still got a bit of beef with eachother…yeah-)
Dr.Blakk sort of knew Eli when he was little, Will told him about the secret of the Surface and as promised, dr.Blakk kept secret of it- so eli treats Dr.Blakk like family while Dr.Blakk deals with him like an annoyed tired dad-
😭
Dr.Blakk was the one who trained Eli once he arrived in slugterra, so yeah he got good training- and is more prepared than he was in the show- (still a clumsy doofus-)
AHH OKAY I’m back! I’ve gotten motivation once more!
With some more lore to give out! Not very happy lore though😅
I wanted a small break, not to mention I kinda forgot about posting for a while! But I’m back (: very happy people are liking my stuff! 😭Took me a while but here’s another artwork of the “redemption au!”
So explaining time!
Unfortunately Shanai still ends up dying just like in the show, but more on later..!Since dr.Blakk isn't ghouling slugs, and twist isn’t his goon or apprentice, Eli gets selected! But it doesn't last long. 2 weeks, and she ends up giving up and dying. In my “Redemption” au, Shanai is sicker, and her illness ends up over taking her, leading her to pass away not so long after training Eli in his training. And Eli ends up being the one to find her dead.
Another fact for this Au, is that when Eli is a bit saddened, or wants to spend time with dr.Blakk cuz he’s feeling down, and doesn't want to bother his friends with it, dr.Blakk sometimes resorts in telling him Past stories of him and his father’s adventures or some things that have happened, like small fun incidents or stories of them, either growing up, or Before Will went missing, to cheer Eli up.
Dr.Blakk acts like he hates doing it sometimes, but he generally likes talking about the past. He doesn't really like doing it, because he will smile and then Eli will rub it in his face later “Hey! You smiled!(:”😭 like his father.
Blakk gets shy about his smiles.
(Also when dr.Blakk finds out about shanai’s passing, he kinda grieves, but he wasn’t really close with her, she was just a small mentor he had, so he doesn’t really react, but he does feel bad that she died,)
“Finally found him…”
AHH okay! More lore time! And Here’s the lore part where Will is actually found!:D though he is in a kinda rough shape, also I’m not good at drawing beards so uh…imagine he has one on😄-
Explaining time!:
So will is found Not too long after Ghoul from beyond, And it was in different circumstances, since he wasn’t controlled by the goon, He did manage to escape the Dark caverns a bit early, but was Captured by a different villain- (who I will introduce soon👀-) but yeah, and he Was able to escape once again, But he was slightly more injured, and un well, that he couldn’t roam far, so he Just laid down to catch his breath, Thankfully and by pure miracle, the Shang gang were nearby, and the slugs that saw Will were worried, so being the smart creatures they were, They Lead a confused shane gang over, where Eli is in shock, and almost didn’t recognize his dad and Once Will awakens, he is in shock too before they share a tearful embrace, and of course the Shang gang have a fan boy moment over Will shane.
Yeah and dr.Blakk had a tearful reunion with Will as well!🥲 With him just yelling out how much he was worried and thought they were never going to find him, and all, wills too tired to respond but he hugs dr.Blakk as well.
Will is able to recover more with the help of doc (the healer slug) and mostly returns to his old self! Will Shane takes care of everyone but himself though- 😭 and dr.Blakk is not having it-
Fun fact (My au) :Will’s arm is critically broken, and Doc can’t really heal it Well as it’s a bit more damaged, So Will can’t really slug sling anymore until his arm recovers fully, Will is mostly a retired shane in a way, but he helps his son with missions in anyway he can, Will has a bad habit of Forgetting not to move his arm too much, as He sometimes tries to show Eli more tips or tricks with slug slinging, but he tends to accidentally injure his arm more😭- And Eli is worried for his dad. Blakk’s worried about him too😭-
Eli doesn't really like it when Blakk gives big smiles-
YEAHHH- so I keep disappearing then dropping a random post every week or so- longer than that- but school has been really making me less motivated so apologies for that😭 I’ll try to post more consistently- until I finish the posts on this Au ig-
Soo take one of dr.Blakk’s attempt to smile normally-
With Will being semi-Proud and Eli being a bit weirded out when Blakk tries to smile with his teeth.
Some small fact in my au about Dr.Blakk’s smiles💀 he doesn’t really smile with his teeth out, he usually just gives small smiles, which Eli is always happy when he does, but dr.Blakk isn't known for smiling with a toothy grin, he actually dislikes it😭 so when he does it, it’s kinda strange- he needs to be in a very good mood to try- And young Thaddius never really smiled like that either, so when he did- (a little bit) Will was always proud of him- 😭 also Eli tries not to give it away that he doesn’t like his toothy grins-
Next post will be twist’s sort of re-design! And his family!
“Twist and Eli, always up to something dumb.” - Trixie
ALRIGHT- I finally have a break from school from winter break! Now I’m probably gonna post more about My Au!
So here’s Eli and twist getting along, mostly acting like Best friends most of the time, and being a chaotic duo together and doing dumb stuff, Twist is more chaotic though, he usually messes around with Eli, annoying trixie as she has to make sure they don’t do too much stupid stuff😭 basically keeping an eye on them, when dr.Blakk and Will aren’t, they thank her for that💀✨
Twist usually visits the Shane gang’s to hang out, or to even help during missions, when they aren’t doing missions, Eli and twist usually hang out, being the chaotic best friends, though, when will and twist see eachother, it’s kinda awkward but not too much, since twist has a loving family, so as much as he kinda doesn’t like being around Will due to the akward feeling cuz past memories, he is thankful for him and Dr.Blakk for giving him amazing adoptive parents, who treat twist like their own kid. 💖 Twist also still lives with them, not really wanting to move out yet, and wanting to help his new parents any way he can for all they have done for him😭👍🏻
Next post will reveal the villain or villians? 👀 of this Au- that take the place of Dr.Blakk instead. And some info I guess!
Also Loki and Burpy are best friends too👌 mostly watching Eli and twist do the chaotic stuff-
(The anatomy’s a bit rushed since I was kinda rushing it😭 so don’t mind twist’s arm)
“…a bittersweet moment…it’s nice to feel sometimes…but sometimes it hurts…” -Dr.Blakk
AHH SHDIHEI okay so I drew a small little drawing with @ariaterramoon Slugterra taken au! Expect Redemption!Au dr.Blakk meets taken!au Will…yeah it got a bit awkward at first- so of course in context, this is after taken au! Will slowly trusts redemption Au Blakk- enough for him to get near him- because taken!au Will had eli taken away from him from dr.Blakk’s men👀- also drew a small doodle of taken au Eli- love him💖
So I’m content, go see @ariaterramoon taken au, it’s actually very interesting if you haven’t already! I really love the au despite how depressing it sounds for me-😅 yeah, I just decided to post these small drawings of my universe with a different universe! In conclusion, I don’t think My Au Blakk would get along with any variation of him, even his cannon self😅 but anyways this was fun to draw!
Now I’m going to be focusing on The villain arachnis, and Will’s imprisonment Arc🥲-
Redemption!Au Dr.Blakk! Lore/Character explanation
INTRODUCTION/DIFFERENCES
Dr.blakk’s character in redemption!au is more complicated in a way from his canon version, but it is very clear the two are different, while canon blakk is…a cold man…and wants power, control over Slugterra….All Redemption!Au blakk wants…is just peace…He has very many differences compared to his canon counterpart, even the people of the caverns have trouble understanding him…they don’t really know his goals…or motives really…all they know is no harm will come to them…and his reputation around Slugterra is…rather decent…and respectable.
But..he is a very tired man…Only criminals fear the man, others fear the man only for his short fuse..but even then…it is only a small fear many of the caverns have…they know that he is…a man with good intentions at heart.
They can’t help but feel anxious about the man. He is quiet for the most part, an intimidating presence, but others could describe him as being peaceful. Dr.blakk knows he confuses people, due to how he is like, on one hand he is calm and quiet, Even peaceful.Then he is vicious and can be brutal when battling, depending. He is short tempered way more easily than his Canon counterpart, and stronger physically.
Dr.blakk knows he’s an unstable individual… , he is a broken man deep down too, he knows it…and he hates it.
In redemption Au! He is far more physically stronger…any criminal is terrified to come across the man, scared for what will befall them if they do, many have lost count at the times he had made many slingers take a break due to almost critically injuring them….only the very arrogant ones that is…no one is brave enough to actually insult the man. Well..no regular citizen that is…he may appear as a tough and cold man..but he’s just soft in the inside…and very..nicer..and sweet in the way….which is why none of the people in Slugterra fear him when they see him out and about.
PAST/LORE
PAST/LORE
Blakk’s early childhood…was…complicated to say the least…he can’t even remember his early memory of his mother…was she caring?..nice…? Cold and uncaring like his father?
He didn’t even remember what she looked like. He wasn’t sure…it feels like his early memories are fading and he hates it…it feels like he had blacked out that past the moment his life was guided to the light, now he struggles to remember, and feels like each memory from his childhood is erased. He despises the feeling.Blakk grew up as an only child…having his father and mother..until his mother left him as a little child…His father having custody of him…blakk could only remember he was young and crying as she left…and blakk could remember him asking his father why his mother left.
He could still remember the cold glance his way. Being told his mother was too weak to carry such a burden of life and abandoned them.Blakk never knew what to feel after that.
His father wasn't…the best either, he does not remember his father ever getting physical with him, but his father had a short fuse too and he could remember the shouts of disappointment whenever he did something wrong, sometimes it hurt Thaddius, but then he felt numb, like it did not matter and nothing else mattered.
His childhood could've been better.
. . .
His childhood could've been better.
Could've been was an understatement for him.
He could remember the day when his father, Dr. Harlan E. Blakk was promoting that stupid product he didn't even remember what it was.
The blast, the fall of his father by the stupid gangster which was viggo dare.
All of it felt fuzzy in Thaddius' head, but back then it felt like everything was going slow and adrenaline was kicking in, but he just…froze and did nothing.
Then his father left him…all for his own life? Thaddius' view on him was changed after that, now his father is a blurry image in his head after all of it. Honestly everything felt a blur, was that even how it happened?
. . .
All he can remember clearly is the days of labor right after such an event. The work of slag rock cavern was tough, Thaddius could remember the scrapes and burns he felt on his hands after moving each rock and the hard like stone scraped against his arms and hands, so many tears shed from pain, and the words of the others stuck in his head from the day he began working.
“Get used to it kid. All you have is meaningless hard labor for the rest of your life..”
He could remember those words clearly as he would work in the dusty and cold environment, coughs and sneezes, crying on the cold stone floor after each day felt sick, he felt sick. He even wanted his father back, his old and tarnished home sounded better than this.. . . he knew someone would save him…right? The Shane's would. He hoped. He had hope.He could remember seeing a shane when he was little, his father unamused while he was amazed, the courage and talent like them saving lives each time.
Now they would be the one’s saving him right? They had to.
After endless cycles of work, finally it felt like he was going to be saved. A shane had entered the Cavern! This was it for little Thaddius! He could remember seeing the shane taking down some criminals, now was his chance, he had to get the attention of the shane he could also remember, Jimmo Shane. After what seemed like eternity, he managed to throw a rock in Shane's direction, and it hit him, looking over, Jimmo Shane saw Thaddius and that was his glimmer of hope, this was it, he would be saved!..But he was not. Even through the plea in his eyes.
Jimmo Shane just looked at him before walking off on his mecha, not caring at all. Not even at the boy’s plea, Thaddius felt like he was frozen.That wasn't right, he was supposed to be saved! He had to be, in desperation, Thaddius chased after the shane, his little hands managing to grasp onto the side of the mecha, and his pleas started, begging, he needed to be saved from this!
“Please! Help me! I'm trapped here! I need help please!” Jimmo looked at him, his face was…filled with disgust before driving off in his Mecha, leaving poor Thaddius by himself as he fell to the ground, shock and hopelessness filling him, feeling like everything he believed in was a lie.
Now he was left to rot here, for who knows how long…
. . .
Teenage years was not easier for Thaddius in the slightest, he had to always watch his back for anything, in case someone was going to go after him, at first he began slug slinging to be the best but then it started to develop into one of protection for himself, after all, every stare thrown at him felt like a dagger and if he didn't move quickly, he knows he will be getting a dagger thrown at him next.
Soon he was recruited for viggo dare, and for a while he felt like he was on top of the world, until…the special treatment began for him. He was not stupid, he could see the way Viggo dare grab at his arm for a long period of time, came so close that he could almost feel his breathing at his neck, but..he was just doing his duties and his boss was proud of him. Right?
He lost count of how many times he had said that to himself and with viggo dare to him.
He could hear those words constantly.
“...You would never let me down, right Thaddius?”
“...You would never fail me right…”
“ ..I’m the only family you’ve ever need..”
It did not help that Viggo dare kept…rubbing his shoulder and getting very close while saying that…at first he'd tried to make him stop, with some type of lie or excuse but it was quickly shut down before he could and he just kept his mouth shut. He felt powerless in this all. But.what could he do?…he kept doing what Viggo dare told him to do…even if it meant blood would be shed from others or himself.
. . .
. . . then the confrontation of Jimmo shane came…he was furious, now..he wasn't going to challenge him..it was stupid to even try…now..in this AU, he did not challenge him out of thinking he could stand his ground and prove his worth…he did not know what he was trying to accomplish anyways…he was just angry and furious, just the sight of the shane brought back memories to when he cried alone in the dusty cavern of slag rock.
Wanting someone to save him, the imprisonment for 6 months didn't help either.
Being chased out of the cavern was not the worst thing in the world, after all, he at least would be as far away from that man, from this cavern as possible.
This was not his home, it never was. His home was nowhere and now he just needed to survive.
. . .
Once growing slightly older, Thaddius' mental state was getting worse, but he was getting stronger each day, fighting men twice his size to practice his skill. Even if it meant killing some…which absolutely made his mental state go down even more from it.
Fighting tooth and nail each day. He'd train so much he'd pass out or until his knees gave out. Eventually, he grew overwhelmed everyday and he needed to stop for a while, he knew his body needed a small break or else he would die and all of this would be for nothing…each day…he felt these nightmares plague him…one of carnage and bloodshed..it felt weird..even to him..when he awake and he panicked and sweating..even..crying.
What was his life at this point…
Thankfully…it was not so shortly after that he began to meet will..even if it was a rocky start at first…will was the best thing to happen for him..sometimes he wonders if he never met will…he probably would…
. . . he doesn't want to think about it…the thought makes him feel anxious.
At first…he was..annoyed beyond belief…who was this boy and why couldn't he leave him alone? He just wanted to be left alone! After all..the boy could have just been pretending anyways…but after multiple attempts and meeting at the slug tournament, Thaddius felt uneasy…he was flattered by such kindness. But even if the boy was genuine…
he felt as if he did not deserve such kindness in the first place. And after all, each time he raised his fist, the boy would flinch as if expecting to receive such a hit. Thaddius decided then that he did not deserve such a kind person in his life…
he could do better anyways…but after getting selected as the only few…he tried practicing, but his hands were so sore, one of them gave out and he began to bleed from his hand…and even then….the boy….who now he learned was will….helped him?..and still smiled at him..it felt like he had been being too…rude..maybe..being friends with the boy…wouldn't be so bad… ? He could only hope…
. . .
he was right…for once..and it felt nice…
CHANGES IN LIFE
With will Shane being there for him, the only family he truly had, it felt less numb and better in life for him…waking up and going out…and seeing will visit him…it felt nice…even visiting will felt nice too. He could smile at that with no issue, at first his home was with will Shane…In the Shane hideout…but thaddius decided he could use his own place, to have more room for his stuff and work he would do. Since he didn’t want to bother will Shane with it.
so he made the citadel, as his new home…but the shane hideout is always considered Thaddius home too..he wont forget that. Ever.
Thaddius builds his citadel in the jungle cavern though, and mostly under a glowing mushroom tree, usually one who would see the citadel and blakk’s industries, it is a nice sight. Since there is slug energy around.
His home is still a black/gray inside, but there's nature all around, vines surrounding the walls beautifully, the environment feels welcoming inside, even in blakk’s office. Dr.blakk now just creates experiments and focuses on science to try and improve slugterra in any way possible, or will try and make slug’s more powerful in less..dangerous or evil ways…he does work on mecha’s too, and mostly works on experiments or focuses on shipments and anything with payment in slugterra.
(His recruits are different people, he does not have the workers as his canon counterpart.)
Overall Blakk is way more calmer when will is present, and is stable when eli is around. He considers them family, and in a way they are the only ones fully able to make him fully calm and in peace, even if he doesn't look like it.
He is just overall a grumpy scientist with a short fuse.
Though after the final fight arc, he does feel better mentally and is trying to recover, is more calmer, and less to lose his temper.
RELATIONSHIPS-
Blakk has no current interests of love, over all he does not think of himself as deserving as one, he's kinda insecure about himself to go and chase love so he focuses on work instead.
He does dream of having kids…that feeling of becoming a father sounds wonderful to him, having a family of his own, but its only dreams he can chase, he does not wish to have children at the moment, he is scared he will keep the cycle of the trauma he has and either become a neglectful parent or be terrible or harsh, but yet, he does not seem to realize how good of a second father figure he is to eli.
He is too harsh on himself sometimes.
ELI SHANE-
He considers him like family, in a way he pictures eli as his nephew in a way, but..after the training he went with eli, even eli admits to seeing Blakk as a father to him too, and Blakk can't help but admit he sees eli as a son too. Over all, he confides in Eli as a son/Nephew to him, and likes to sometimes share stories with him, whether it be of adventures of him and Will's experiences in patrolling slugterra or of old tales of slugterra that he can remember from his early childhood days.
Eli always likes to listen to them, even if Blakk struggles to tell a story, Blakk is a parent to him in a way.
They have a good relationship with each other.
WILL SHANE-
Will and him are very close, some even think of the two as brother’s, best friends? Family…anything of the sort, no one in slugterra could think otherwise of the two.
Will and Eli are mostly allowed to walk in the citadel with no trouble, the guards shrug them off, due to knowing that their practically family is to Blakk, even if Blakk seems annoyed by their simple presence, he isn't actually, that's just how he is. Will is probably the only one (besides eli, and maybe the shane gang) to be able to hug Blakk randomly, sometimes blakk will hug them back but if he is busy, he will pat them on the back or shoulder, head.
Blakk cares deeply about will, and in return, will cares deeply about him, will even brought down eli when he was a baby to let blakk hold him, when will disappeared, his mental state was..not the best, that his workers were concerned and a little scared, but even more so worried, and even a few of the people in slugterra could notice, eli shane could notice, the shane gang could notice.
As much as blakk tries to hide it, he feels more empty when will is gone, and if eli were to be gone, his mental state would go down more, to the point of just snapping. Blakk is already unstable as it is. He doesn't need to lose any more people he cares about. He's a broken man. No matter what.
PRESENT
Overall…blakk’s mental state is recovering just like will’s, especially after Will is found and alive, he still is a bit unstable, but he is doing better. He stayed by Will's side, even if Will was sleeping, he had to stay by Will's side due to fear and anxiety overtaking him. Things are getting slightly better in his life, especially after the final battle…he still has some issues he needs to fix…but…he knows he will be fine..especially with his family.
…he’ll recover….especially with his family…
. . .
SHCIHDJENE OKAY SORRY IF THE POST IS VERY LONG…JUST REDEMPTION!BLAKK CHANGES IN HIS STORY ARE A LOT..SO YEAH…AND MOST OF IT IS KINDA TOLD IN HIS PERSPECTIVE SO ITS A LOT..AND I TRIED TO SIMPLIFY WILL AND BLAKK’S POSTS SINCE THERES A LOT THAT THEY GO THROUGH SO YEAH…ELI IS NEXT ON THIS AU🗣️💖 THEN TWIST THEN A BIT OF THE SHANE GANG I THINK THEN ILL SHOW THE FINAL FIGHT ARC OF THIS AU WHICH WILL BE BASICALLY BE A RECOVERING AFTER A BATTLE SO STAY TUNED I GUESS?😭😭 aight! Peace…
Redemption Au! Eli Shane! (and I’m officially back 😭🙏)
. . .
Okay…so i usually disappear after a while after posting sometimes depending, but i kinda lost motivation with anything and been focused on other things in life and i guess i kinda lost interest in posting for a while…But im back! And determined to finish this Au storyline! If I can call it that- but! I’m planning on finishing Eli and some other info about the Au before I officially make a fanfic about it! Maybe…I’m not sure! But I will dive deeper into that as I’m thinking of maybe doing a comic instead! I thought I had made up my mind but apparently not😭 but after this I’m going to actually post fan art and other things!
Oh and I will think about doing FNAF or other fan arts for others so only time will tell I guess-
Anyways here’s Eli!
Eli is slightly different to his counterpart but there isn’t much! (Other than being a bit more stronger and better trained-)
He still is a bubbly, dorky Guy who loves puns..though sometimes twist takes that title and is more dorky than him- but Eli is still the same, but he’s doing a lot better in this Au! He’s a bit more of a thinker during his plans and because of Au Blakk’s training, he is even harder to defeat (depending on the enemy) he is very good in combat training due to Blakk and with a bit of the incredible’s master training, he’s well more experienced compared to his Cannon Counter part!
Still clumsy though sometimes, like his dad😭
LORE
Eli grew up in what he considered a happy life!
Well sort of..he had faded memories of slightly meeting blakk but they blurred since he was nearly about to become a toddler during that time. His relationship with his mom was…complicated, at times she was sweet and caring but as he grew up, he could feel her neglect towards him, and could often see her on the couch passed out from her drinking…So at age 5, he remembered his father divorcing his mom. He doesn’t remember much from that day, but he could remember his mother just not caring and leaving through the door..
He sometimes misses her..
And sometimes he doesn’t.
Growing up, he was raised pretty constantly by his father, even if there were some days he didn’t see Will, will always made sure to make up for that time, never wanting to be away for too long in his child’s life..he’d even put off weeks of being a Shane to spend time with Eli, so for most of Eli’s childhood, will Shane was never really absent or gone for too long!
And even if he was Eli always was patient.
Eli doesn’t remember much about his other family, the only other family he’s ever been around or interacted with is his uncle and aunts from his mom side, and his grandma, but never from his father’s side..expect uncle jimmo once or twice.
. . .
Already Will began to break 2 rules of the Shane code, and was beginning, in his family’s mind..Bringing shame into the family, which is also why Will cut communication with them a long time ago.
To Will’s family and the Shane code book, He broke one of the very first rules ever made, ‘never disrespect your legacy.’
A rule placed for the Shane’s of upcoming years to never not do your work, whatever you had to do was important and no distractions were allowed.
So will shane cutting off his days to spend time with his family, friends, putting the Shane work aside, broke the rule and made his uncle, mother and father and other relatives despise him more.
The second rule he broke was put at the last, and was always reminded of each Shane who would soon step up and take the Bandoleer and blaster for themselves.
‘Be loyal to your training’
By putting this rule, the Shane family for ages have always trained their children, whoever would take the place of the Shane role, would have to train hard, or everyday, and their children too.
It was a custom once the child turned 6, they would begin Shane children, it was a must, so they would be more conscious and remember things better.
. . .
Will easily broke this rule, and he didn’t feel bad, yet a bit guilty about it, but if given the choice again, he would gladly
Do it again.
Once Eli turned 6, he never trained him, he made sure he had a playful childhood, and this caused anger through the Shane family, as arguments went back and forth sometimes between some relatives.
Will Shane made SURE Eli focused on school, friends, playing, everything expect the Shane stuff, he didn’t want to make Eli feel like he needed to be successful or be proven worthy, he was only a child, he shouldn't have had to carry that burden..especially the one will carried so long ago when he was a child himself.
. . .
Eli had a fun childhood in his opinion, and the time he was told more about Slugterra finally was when he was 10 years old, since his time was nearing, but Will wanted to take a slow approach, he didn’t want to pressure Eli or make him think that ‘oh! I have to be a Shane!..I have to work had to prove myself to my dad and focus on only this..”
Will made sure to give Eli other ideas, so he didn’t think he had to be a Shane.
. . .
Eli felt comfortable enough with deciding to become a Shane, not due to over pressure, wanting to prove to his father, but because he wanted to help people.
He made the choice himself rather than being forced or the role being pushed upon him..
. . .
HOW HE IS LIKE-
Eli is bubbly and all about just like his cannon self, Loves puns, but he is more serious in a way due to blakk, not in a bad or cold way, just so he takes things with more consideration, is more quick and clever, and is a fair and well fighter.
He thinks and usually half his plans work really well due to blakk’s thinking passing onto him sometimes during training.
(He’s still his dad son though..😅)
Will slip up and be a bit clumsy at times, but he’s a pretty advanced slugslinger and fighter. Is more advanced in a way compared to his counter part. Still a dorky guy, Trixie makes sure he doesn’t do anything stupid still, while kord and Eli prank each other and go into full warzone …
He has a good heart, and it’s more motivated to grow with blakk’s training, and with his childhood, especially with the way Will raised him. Will always made sure to teach him a lot about compassion, how to give instead of take and to Procter everything in Slugterra, the slugs, the people, everyone, safe others from bad ones, still show remorse and kindness.
He cares deeply about blakk (sees him as an uncle/father figure sometimes)
He’s genuinely more brightful! Though after his dad is saved he feels a lot better, though some final battle happens kinda scars him a little but he is doing fine!
(He also got the mouth scar from some training from blakk, proud of his scar like twist, just a bit disappointed he didn’t get it from an actual slug slinging duel.💀)
Ahsuhsiahejwj SOO THATS ELI’S LORE FOR NOW- Sorry for the long disappearances, I’ll try better this month and April hopefully 🙏 alright see yall next time, peace!
