Talking 'Bout Static (Atlas!au)

(This is to explain the main premise that this au branches off on, which is Static/Snow. Both words define the same thing, so I am going to be using them interchangeably, though Static is going to be the 'official' definition of it.)

Static itself is a dimension shelfed between the Infinite Realms and the Living World. It is also a state of being. Similar to its own position, beings who are interchangeably in-between life and death have a stronger grasp on their powers within the dimension. Ghosts and Humans, however? not so much.

Human brains and its basic understanding cannot handle the constant droning and abysmal sight that is given within Snow, and typically die from an overload of information almost instantly. If the human has lost one of its senses beforehand, they are able to exist for slightly longer, but the physical pressure typically implodes the body after about 13 minutes.

Ghosts do actually have a way to survive within Static! If the ghost was to willingly give up what little humanity and sanity it possesses in return of functioning by pure instinct and obsession alone, it can survive within Snow! Granted, that ‘surviving’ is being a feral creature of sin named Noises, a Noise singular. But it still does exist somewhat! No longer considered a ghost or conscious, but points count for something, right? (A group of Noises is known as a Wave).

Newly formed ghosts coming from the Living World are able to survive Static if they happen to temporarily slip into it while transferring their core and soul in the Infinite Realms. They do need to actually end up in the Infinite Realms eventually, or else they will become a full ghost and be affected by Snow accordingly.

It is unknown if a Halfa is able to survive or stay sane within Static.

Accessing Snow is quite difficult, but not as difficult as you may think. Travelling in-between dimensions has a rare chance of teleporting you into Static. This is why freshly made ghosts can fall into Static with no warning beforehand. Natural portals can also do this, but the typical green swirls it has will be replaced with, well, Static. So as long as you pay attention to the physical properties of a portal, you can tell whether or not it is to Static, or to the opposite dimension of the one you are currently inhabiting. (Infinite Realms to Living World and vice versa). 

It is unknown how to detect a Static portal when creating a permanent portal, remain cautious when travelling within them.

Static's liminality in relation to dimensions is also connected to their absence of connection to Time. Meaning the appearances of Static portals happen in every timeline, every moment, and during the absence of every moment as well, measured as it is. This appears to carry over onto Noises in some way.

Now, with all of this information in mind, wouldn't it be terrible for a young Hlafa to fall into Static, be captured by a Wave, be used as a stable beacon to infinitely generate and replace all ghost portals with Static ones, and force themselves to march onto the Realms and Earth to kill all humans and transfer all ghosts into Nosies, leaving the isolated humans and ghosts to attempt to fight off these creatures (and some freaky guy named Atlas what the hell), with no idea on how to stop the invasion of Static? That would be quite terrible, wouldn't it.

Randomly drops lore like a squirrel in your backyard:

1. The Observants are humans whose names start with O. They all look the same but their personalities can vary a bit. They can all see tiny bits and pieces of future events individually, and they gather in regular meetings to compare notes on their sights, eventually piecing together a complete prophecy. This results in a small secret society that records and curates prophecies. They have a small psychic shop as a front for the secret society and fund their activities. Clay works part time there. He is very good at saying what their customers want to hear.

2. They don’t believe in Clay’s true sight. Clay doesn’t want people to know too much about it.

3. They actually see the “canon” timeline.

4. After foreseeing the Ghost King destroying the world, the observants began planning to get rid of him. However, Clay saw that the real reason the Ghost King went mad was because of their plan, so he contacted King Phantom via spirit channeling before they acted.

5. Vlad Masters knows King Phantom’s secret.

6. Olive and Octave have been trying to get Vortex expelled since junior year.

7. Clay sits next to the backdoor to the corridor for accessibility reasons. He leave the moment class ends. No one stops him.

8. Their home room teacher is Ghostwriter (in parallel to Mr. Lancer). Ghostwriter made a small fortune ghostwriting, but couldn’t sell a single copy of his own work. Dude got depressed and decided to spend the best years of his life teaching high school English.

9. Mr. Lancer is the ghost of high school literature. Dash Baxter is the ghost of … rugby I guess?? He looks up to King Phantom in a weird way.

10. Jasmine Fenton, renowned psychologist, and Jazz.F., well known author of several important books on spirit channeling, are the same person. She passed on right after her death.

Okay I'm working on something that's probably gonna take awhile to finish so here's some lore bits for Atlas!au.

- Team Phantom are currently 16, while Jazz's birthday is a bit early so she's 18 on her last year of highschool.

- They have actually gotten pretty good at attending school on time, but it has been cancelled since the portals started opening up, for safety reasons.

- Vlad is still considered the Mayor of Amity Park, and sent out a non-public message after fleeing from his mansion to shut down schools and basically inflict quarantine rules. This does mean that online options will most likely be considered as a temporary substitute, but it's too early in the shutdown for anyone to know for sure.

- Since Team Phantom have gotten more into hunting outside, everyone is basically in-the-know about them ghost hunting. Tuckers parents approve, as long as he stays safe and not on the front lines. Sams parents everyone has unanimously agreed to not tell, so she sneaks out every night instead. No one outside of the team and Vlad are aware of the Red Huntress's identity, including the older Fentons, but she has been publicly seen fighting alongside them. Valerie is not aware of Danny's secret, and the Team intends to keep it that way for as long as possible.

- Jack and Maddie took Danny's disappearance pretty hard, refusing to work on projects but too heartbroken to actually go looking for him. Jazz was able to convince them that the phenomenon that are Noises are probably the reason Danny's been missing, and helping Vlad construct weapons against them would help them find Danny. It worked! (Debatable if Jazz herself believes it or not.)

- Publicly Danny has been known to disappear constantly for random amounts of time, so most people aren't worried about him, including the fact that not many people care about him in the first place. Team Phantom in those cases have methods of him telling them that he's safe and just recovering, or caught up in some Time business. None of those methods have been executed on Danny's end. Dead silence. Team Phantom has made it a point to search for Danny whenever they go out hunting.

- Atlas rarely commicates or interacts with people outside of Team Phantom, Vlad, and the Fentons, so most people are unaware of his existence. Some outliers is a large number of cases where janitors or students breaking into Casper High have seen him Scrawling out random symbols, and talking to himself without acknowledging any other stimuli. These appearances are only from word of mouth, since photos taken of him are pure static. They did say he was covered in static when they encountered him anyways. People have started to consider him a peaceful cryptid that will hopefully leave once school is back in session.

FINALLY FINISHED MY CHARACTER SHEET FOR MY SPIDERSONA! 💜😭 After quite literally nine months of working on it! Don't expect something as detailed from me ever again though lol.

I'll talk a little about her lore and character wise in this post if you are interested! (Quick TW Since Aph's story deals with quite a bit of death, self hate, suicidal thoughts etc, etc, you get the gist just be careful reading, also heads up both my friends Didi and Nico wrote their spidersonas with mine so their lores intertwine also also heads up for a quite a bit of an age gap since my spidersona is shipped with Miguel sooooo)

Aph Stella or better well known as Constellation Weaver, the Spiderwoman of Earth-117.

Her powers are basically the normal Spider-Man powers with a few exceptions, she is based on stars, starlight, shooting stars etc, so for example her webs are made out of stars holding onto each other like constellations, like stars being made out of fire, her webs are extremely irritating to the normal human skin, the closest injury to it being a quimical burn.

As well as her webs she can charge her stars on the palms of her hands to cause damage to enemies.

Cons to her powers are that she didn't get the normal super strength that everyone else does, instead she got double the resistance, think of it as she is meant to protect not fight, though she can more then handle herself with the villains in her universe.

Like on Madoka Magica she needs a recharge period on her powers or else something horrible might happen to her, though instead of having a jewel like on Madoka Magica, her body slowly gets filled with a star pattern, that's actually why her suit has pieces of her skin open, so she knows she is not overusing her powers.

The city she lives instead of being New York is named Nueva Lunaria, situated in the late 2020s

She is 26 years old, became Spiderwoman at age 21 but all her canon events only started happening a year or two before the events of ATSV.

Her height, like her creator, is 1.52 cm or 5'2 feet.

Came from an emotional abusive household but lived the first 4 years of her life with her grandmother May until she eventually died of old age and she had to go on back to live with her parents.

After leaving her parents' home she quickly moved in with her two best friends since childhood Didi and Nico.

Because of Aph being the oldest she always was a substitute mom to the both of them.

Nico and Didi helped create Aph’s suit so it's an emotional piece for her.

Aph got bitten in her job as a freelance artist for her universe's version of NASA, Aph would take any job that anywhere would throw at her as she needed the money, being the oldest she felt the need to support Nico and Didi through their careers (Both ended up graduating, Nico as an art preschool teacher and Didi as a nurse which helped Aph heal her injuries in the right way)

Aph got bitten in her job by a rogue entity that they had brought from outer space, specifically from an endeavor to the moon, the only way the people in that ship could describe it was a spider.

Aph got bitten while working on drawing said description of the spider for the research team.

Aph quickly quit her job after she noticed she was becoming Spiderwoman because she was afraid of getting experimented on or worse.

From then on she promised to use her powers responsibly and with kindness just as her Nana May would've wanted.

Sadly both Didi and Nico were Aph's canon events.

Nico dies at the hands of the Lizard in Aph's universe, thrown off a building after the Lizard stopped toying with her, Aph tried to catch her with her webs in a panic but because of her injuries done by the Lizard and the injuries that she got from Aph's webs, she didn't survive, she dies on the beginnings of December before Aph's 26th birthday in January.

Aph's birthday on January 17 that year was the only one she has ever not celebrated in her life.

Didi dies on Valentine's day the year that Aph became 26, done with not being able to help Aph fight villains she makes a deal with what she didn't know at the time was the Green Goblin, making her into a praying mantis hybrid that Aph had to defeat.

Aph blames herself for both their deaths thinking they were preventable.

She lives in a shoujo manga/magical girl inspired world (Think Sailor Moon and Madoka Magica)

A lot of her lore was deadass taken or inspired by Madoka or Sailor Moon so bare with me lol.

Because of Didi's and Nico's deaths Aph can no longer pay for the rent for her apartment and goes back to her parents' home.

Her parent's try to arrange a marriage for her with the Doc Ock of her universe and that's her last straw.

She plans to commit suicide that night but never gets the chance.

That night a orange portal appears in her childhood bedroom, everything floating up and then falling back.

From there emerges Miguel O'Hara recruiting her to the society.

She cuts his speech and says that yes she will join him without hesitation as she sees this as a signal from the universe to keep living and do good in other places.

Much like Gwen she pretty much abandons her universe and lives full time in Earth-928 on the society thanks to Miguel.

Miguel finds out about what she was about to do in her universe and makes sure she gets help.

What Aph doesn't know at the time is that their are Spiderman versions of Didi and Nico in the society, Didi is the adoptive daughter of Miguel and Nico as well as Aph can't go back to her universe.

Miguel hides this information from Aph to protect her but she finds out anyway, they talk it out and Aph understands why he did it, he wanted to make sure Aph didn't try to see this Didi and Nico as replacements of her own.

She eventually is alright enough to be friends with them though.

Miguel in my AU is 35.

Aph and Miguel have a 9 year difference.

Aph and Miguel quickly become close because they feel as if they both lost people in their lives that were important to them in similar ways.

Since Aph is on Nueva York at least for the near future, like the bracelet that Miles wears when he comes into the spidersociety, Miguel turns Aph's star shaped earrings into stabilizers so she can be there without the clunky watch (Though she still needs it to go to other dimensions)

Miguel also quickly finds out that Aph has basically been fighting blind as a bat, she wears glasses on her daily life another perk she didn't get from the spider, but she didn't know how to add the graduation that her glasses have to her mask so she had been fighting blind.

Miguel finds out by seeing her fight, seeing how she normally overshots her hits, when he finds out he berates her but quickly fixes the problem and updates her mask.

Aph makes sure Miguel takes proper breaks and often brings him food from the cafeteria or pastries she makes herself.

She hangs out with him a lot on his lab since she doesn't like that he is cooped up there with no one to talk to or even just have in his presence.

After a heart to heart and Aph basically confessing her feelings to Miguel after she almost died , they get together and Miguel gives Aph a promise ring that like her earrings stabilizes her without the need of the watch.

They call each other mi luna y mi sol.

When the events of ATSV happen, Aph is reluctant to go to Miles' side, but she knows that the person she once knew as her partner is doing something wrong that he'll eventually regret.

She eventually goes back to Miguel after an apology to Miles and him fixing everything up.

In the future Miguel and Aph have four children including Didi, they had difficulties having them surprisingly nor because of the difference in dimensions but because both their genetics are FUCKED in opposite ways, at first they thought they would have none, then oldest biological daughter, Minerva, Minny for short came along after they almost gave up, eventually four years later they had Javier, Javi, who was a very sickly boy so they thought they would never have another one because the other two were already a fucking miracle, and finally six years later when Aph is 38 they have Mateo, the youngest and quite literally their oops baby since Miguel is 47 by then lmao.

AND THAT'S IT! That's Aph's story and design at least for this post, I'll post more about her story and drawings as I make them, I'll also be posting old ones that are in my procreate, mainly with Miguel.

And one last thing props to my friend who made the design of Aph's logo on her bow! Originally she wouldn't have one since I didn't know where to put it but my friend came through, though they didn't want to be tagged I still want to credit them in some way!

Didi Explanation and Aph and Miguel's Relationship

Hey yall I'm back and finally did a post for a question I got about my spidersona! (Did I take almost a month to cook? Yeah and? Also I'm sorry, everytime i draw Miguel it comes out so so so different from one another and also i didn't use a reference for one of these) As always trigger warnings for this post such as child abuse/neglect, spiders, experimentation, death etc.

The question comes from @sweetimpurityloves (thank you Sweet love youuuu!)

Also thank you @didipayasito for letting me talk about your sona <3 go follow her she's awesome

Also also dividers I used for this post made by @/saradika-graphics

For this question I'll make a small explanation first and then go on to the lore!

There are two versions of Didi in our story or AU, Didi Stella and Didi O'Hara, for simplicity sake we'll call them A!Didi (As in Aph's Didi or Didi Stella) and M!Didi (As in Miguel's Didi or Didi O'Hara)

A!Didi comes from Earth-117, also known as Nueva Lunaria or Aph's earth, A!Didi was one of Aph's best friends and roommates with Nico, they were so close they all literally changed their last names to Stella so they could at least be sisters symbolically.

For those who have not read my sona's lore post, A!Didi dies at 24 years old in Aph's story as one of her canon events, Aph blamed herself for it horribly even if the own Didi said she shouldn't as she was dying.

And M!Didi comes from Earth-928, also known as Nueva York, she is Miguel's adoptive child in that universe, being some convoluted version of Spiderwoman (I'll explain in the next part of this post bare with your girl)

Now onto the actual question!

How did Didi become Miguel's adoptive child in this AU?

I think most of Miguel Nation knows how Miguel became Spider-Man so I won't go into detail with that.

Well, Didi was born from a one night stand between a revered scientist and a very famous model, neither of them wanted a child but by the time Didi's mom noticed she was pregnant it was too late to do anything about it.

Didi grew up in a household of emotional abuse from her mother who she lived full time with.

That was until her father became obsessed with the notion of creating another Spider-Man.

They obviously needed a live subject, someone young enough so that they could indoctrinate them into doing their bidding but also someone that no one would go looking for.

And that's when Didi came in, as it turns out her parents had done a fantastic job of keeping her hidden, knowing her mother's career would plummet if someone knew about the child, it was better for them like that, well for her parents not for Didi.

The perfect subject, someone who was already loyal to the scientist, who would do anything for his approval.

And that's how it happened, Didi was bitten by a radioactive spider, she was experimented on trying to see what limits her powers had.

Until one fateful night where her life would change for the better.

A fire.

No one knows how it started or when, but Didi in her contention cell couldn't do much about it, thinking she would die there until she heard how someone took down the door and huddled her in their arms.

The next thing Didi knew she woke up in a hospital bed, she was one of the few survivors, and the cherry on top, the only experiment that survived.

The fire erased any document of Didi ever existing with it, shoving it into the depths of who she had been in that horrible laboratory.

She could hear soft voices outside her hospital room, one in particular who declared sternly "I'll be her guardian until her parents are found" She was terrified thinking it was one of the scientists that worked with her dad.

But no, the man who walked through the door, though a scientist as well, couldn't be confused by any man she had seen before, tall and intimidating for a little girl.

He talked softly not wanting to scare her, introducing himself as Miguel O'Hara, though Didi interrupted him the moment she saw his fangs, becoming completely excited to see someone who had such a feature as well.

Miguel was stunned, but he knew what he had to do, he couldn't let these little girl, these girl who had barely stopped being a toddler and turned into a kid to be at the hands of people who could put her in danger because of her powers.

As it was obvious that her parents wouldn't appear he made the decision to adopt her.

Being 24 years old but having inherited Alchemax and a fortune from Tyler Stone (In this AU Tyler dies with Aaron and Miguel inherits Alchemax) he was able to easily sway people to let him adopt the little girl.

From that moment on Miguel would visit Didi in the hospital and eventually in the orphanage until all the papers were in order.

He breaks the news to her as Didi is doing makeup on him, her saying "It's almost time for you to leave and I haven't finished this yet" and Miguel answering by accident "Finish it when we get home" stunning Didi as he finally breaks the news to her and her sobbing in his arms as she finally gets to have a home with the only loving parent she has ever known, after cleaning Miguel's face up and calming Didi down, the papers are finalized, her little suitcase packed up and Didi gets to go home with her dad, the only dad she has had from that moment on.

(And for those who love Gabi, don't worry she is still part of this AU and that part of the story is intact)

So onto the second question, how did Aph react to the news that a Spiderperson version of Didi existed and Miguel had hidden it from her? Not only that but that that version is Miguel's adoptive daughter? And also that her other best friend also had a spiderperson version of themselves?

.....Not well

She ran into his lab, screaming his name like bloody murder, scaring the fuck out of Miguel who doesn't have a spidersense, he was about to berate whoever came in shouting but the moment he looked around his words all jumbled and he didn't know what to say.

He had never seen Aph that angry, hell he had never seen the woman more then annoyed point blank. So seeing her like that, and worse with all her anger directed at him? Yeah....Miguel stayed quiet until Aph had finished berating him to the moon and back.

Eventually Aph settled down, now more heartbroken then anything that he had hidden something so important from her, trying her best not to cry not wanting to be seen as weak.

Miguel got himself and Aph sitting down on the edge of his platform, they had been friends for a bit and he tolerated physical contact from her so he let her seat as she wanted.

Miguel explained his point of view, he was going to tell her, when she was in a place to take it better, he didn't want Aph to use this versions of Nico and Didi as replacements for the family she had lost, for the versions she had lost.

Aph understood, it was an asshole move from him, yes, but it came from a good place, she sighed and nodded, understanding his point of view but still making sure he knew that was horrible to pull and that she wouldn't allow that to happen again, no more secrets between them, at least nothing as substantial as a whole kid.

And that's all for this ask! Hope you all enjoyed reading it and looking at the art as much as me making it! My asks and comments are both open for this kind of thing so be welcomed to drop them in anytime! Just beware I might take a bit to respond specially since I plan on adding art to most of it!

Bro I wanted boba and got some from a place delivered and it has little stars on the cup 😭💜 it's so cute it got me thinking again about how merch for Aph would look like in her universe and all I could think of (aside from other ideas I have had that I'll draw later) was her having a colab with a boba place and them adding star-shaped jelly to a lavender-vanilla flavored drink (thats my favorite but this place didn't have it so I ordered rose instead)

(Good thing their cups are frosted because I didn't want to blur the name of the place lmao)
