Subcon Kingdom Au - Blog Posts

Made this little comic over a year ago and then completely forgot about it and now the computer that had the original files fucked itself, so no colors for this. Ah well, enjoy Dad

Family trip to Disney Dead Bird Land

Finally got to making a proper reference for my Subcon Kingdom AU prince. 

Not pictured is a small lock pick set he keeps tucked away in one of his boots because he doesn’t ever want to be locked up again.

Bunch of different prince drawings plus a Moony for good measure

After like two months of procrastinating, I have finally completed the first portion of the transcription for an AHIT rp with @fedoraspooky (Snatcher), @madeasubstitute (Vanessa), and me (The Prince). We started this thing March 20th and it’s still going on. This part is 54K words and 118 pages long and it’s only up day 10 of rping. Without further ado, the link to the novel of a google doc.

Since there is no Snatcher to fight in the Subcon Kingdom au, of course the final boss of Subcon in this au is gonna be Queen Vanessa. The prince absolutely deserves to kick some Vanessa butt. 

More info under cut!     

For this instance, the prince manipulates Hat Kid for his own gain. He doesn’t do it maliciously and feels very bad doing so, but he really has no other option because he knows that there isn’t anything he can do on his own to face Vanessa now that she’s free from her confinement.

Prior to this point, he both learned of Time Piece’s time manipulation capabilities and that Hat Kid is able to vaguely sense their location. That last bit, combined with his awareness of how crazy strong and skilled Hat Kid is, leads to him having the final time piece in his possession as he waits outside of the boss arena for Hat Kid, who obviously arrives. He doesn’t outright force her to help him–providing her the option to help if she wants to or not–but he’s familiar enough with her to know she will indeed lend her aid.

Not entirely sure what the battle itself would be like. I have some vague ideas, but currently it is that Hat Kid acts as a distraction, keeping Vanessa’s attention on her to allow the prince to lob blue potions at the queen. On top of that, Hat Kid’s umbrella acts a lot like the mirror shield from Legend of Zelda, protecting against and even repelling Vanessa’s magic attacks. Not certain what exactly happens to Vanessa after she’s defeated, but she’s probably sealed up in some much more permanent manner.

After everything is taken care of and the prince is finally freed from his constant worry and stress about Vanessa, he admits to Hat Kid what he had done and how he used her and is super, super apologetic about the entire thing. He probably will never forgive himself for having done this to her (even though she’s super chill and doesn’t entirely understand what he had done other than the fact that he didn’t go out of his way to try and kill her). Either way, he freely presents the final time piece to Hat Kid and this is where we get this drawing of the prince holding the time piece with Hat Kid hugging him.

If you have any further questions don’t hesitate to ask!

And in that moment, we were all the prince

Guess who got a new outfit in an rp??? That’s right, my boy! And all the others too. Everyone got a makeover and all it cost was Snatcher’s dignity and the prince’s entire wardrobe!

Hat Kid trying to teach the prince her language and it goes about as well as expected.

I’m just gonna go ahead start tagging this au as subcon kingdom au

A Hat in Time prince lives AU I’ve just been referring to as Subcon Kingdom. Explanation under cut! Also, here’s a rp I’ve been using him in.

Basically, the prince is rescued from the cellar after spending only a few days there and when Vanessa finds out, of course she leaves the manor to retrieve him. She’s lured into a trap and sealed away and, since she did not do her whole forest-wide everyone-killing freeze (just a smaller scale one), the kingdom does its best to recover. Not just that, but these events happen only a few months before the events of the main game, so Hat Kid actually gets to explore a Subcon in its ‘prime’ and of course meet the prince who’s just a stressed bean (The two reasons I came up with this AU originally actually)

Top right: Right after Vanessa is sealed away, the prince, desperate for answers, digs through Vanessa’s things to find something. Too bad he does not end up liking the answers he does find.

Bottom right: The prince willingly giving Hat Kid a time piece despite knowing exactly what they can do because what is there left for him in the past but lies? and Hat Kid is so overjoyed that someone isn’t trying to kill her for them.
