Here’s Willow the eldest of the toast babies!
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to actually post this au I have been working on it for a long time and probably has the most content out of anything I make. So let begin!
There are Celtic gods, the gods from Ireland, Great Britain, and Gaul. In cannon we know there are not many left and more are fading away. Now the au, due to all the fading the gods have all come to gather under there Irish name the Tuatha De Dahann or children of the Danu, and to the gods that apply they go as either there Irish, welsh, Scottish, or very rarely there name from gaul. For example Lugh is the Irish name but Lugus is the Gaulish name(think Roman and Greek). For simplicity the gods basically fuse there other names together and go by one name now, so the Gaulish god once known as Lugus now goes by Lugh and is the same person as the Irish god Lugh. The gods that appear in the au are Lugh, the Morrigan, Dian Cecht, Cailleach, Aengus Og, Brigd, Manannan Mac Lir, and Arawn.
Not all of these gods are major figures in Celtic mythology and the loss of many major gods is the reason the gods now raise and are very close to and protective of there Demi-god children. Celtic Demi-gods also have not had to deal with monsters like other Demi-gods due to the close relationships between the people and magical creatures. But although they are safer they have to deal with the responsibilities of the faded and older Demi-gods work as or even fully become minor gods. They used to have a school for the Demi-gods and even mortal children to teach them life skills in the mortal world, magic, and other skills, sadly due to there not being enough students it was shut down in 1902 and a small after school and summer day program is used instead that focuses on teaching magic and self defense. The school and program are run by fairies employed by the gods that are also in charge of the seasons but if you have ever seen Ireland and Great Britain they don’t change much.
I introduced the fairies before in the post about porcupine so I won’t go over them here.
Unlike the greek gods who moved to the US the Celtic gods stayed in Ireland and Great Britain since they’re connected to the Irish people and the island itself not western culture. Some Demi-gods do live in the US like Aisling who lives in Modesto California(my hometown because I find it funny) since her ma works in viticulture.
Aisling is one of the main characters in this au along with her family, her dad is the god Arawn. Now in the mythology Arawn has a wife but nothing is known about her so I made her a actual character, Fiona in known as ma to there children, and Mary is known as mum. Arawn and Fiona have been married for centuries and in the late 17 hundreds or early 18 hundreds they met Mary a 40 year old childless widow and all three fell in love and got married turning Mary into a minor goddess and second queen of Annwn. Together they have 4 sons Patrick, Sean, Gillian, and Bart and 1 daughter Aisling. Patrick is the oldest at 24, the twins Sean and Gillian are 22, Bart is 20, and the youngest Aisling is 16.
Just a friendly reminder to all who have prescriptions to look up the FDA or manufacturers information about your medications because you might find some very useful information like a cheaper generic brand or in my case learn that the blood flow problem’s in my fingers and toes are probably a side effect of my medication.
I wish that I could consistently write things about my au ideas because my brain is just absolutely full of aus an ocs for just about every hyper fixation I have ever had and I just want to get them out! Yes some of them are trash(ok maybe most of them) but I'm legitimately proud of some like molly, I feel like molly is a good one if a bit boring. And now Im re-working my Celtic gods au story since I realized that if I read it on ao3 I would find It boring and uninteresting.
Here is Hesina from @nevertheless-moving Hesina Willshaper au!! I hope you like it!! The skirt is that big because of the big bag of snacks she keeps in her pockets.

These are various character exploration pieces I’ve been working on lately. <3
I posted these on Instagram and lots of people have asked can they use these as references - the answer is yes but if you use them please remember to credit me and please no direct tracing.
Also please do not re-post my art, re-blogs are always appreciated though <3
Peeta is done! Here they are together! I literally never draw men so this was a challenge.
One particular list of words turned out to be so difficult that the test subjects couldn’t even get through it. The phrase was “pad kid poured curd pulled cod,” and when volunteers tried it, Shattuck-Hufnagel (an MIT psychologist ) said, some of them simply stopped talking altogether.
