+1 alien monster clown

Hello! I'm Bramble, and I'm new here. You can find me over at bramblepatch if you want to chat.

I'm bringing in Lydain Pelkys, an original character from my overly-ambitious and indefinitely-hiatused Gamzee-centric Homestuck fanfiction, Miracle Child. For those of you who were not in the "far too many feelings about horrible troll clowns" corner of the Homestuck fandom a few years back, she comes from an AU where the Alternian species and civilization did not come to an abrupt end on Karkat Vantas's sixth wriggling day, and now everyone has to deal with being a kid and growing up. Specifically, Lydain is one of Gamzee's classmates in the Subjugglator training program.

Lydain's about nineteen years old - not quite nine sweeps, as she'd measure it - and a deeply devout adherent of the Cult of the Mirthful Messiahs, because among trolls the circus is literally a doomsday cult. She's cheerful, playful, and ever so casually bloodthirsty. I'm sure you'll all get along fine.

One of my other fantrolls - Ammond, a yellowblood who's a little too interested in biopsionic engineering, I had her in Jarjammed and now she's at We the Lost - is super into Troll Firefly. Not that she'd admit it. Because it's a weirdly idealistic portrayal of helming (Serenity is literally the tenth character and a full member of the crew) and Troll Joss Whedon is kind of a creep. Also the show got pulled after its first season because someone at the Wild Canid TV Network got uncomfortable with the increasingly anti-imperial tone so it never got an official DVD release and it's hard to find some of the episodes.
