Synopsis

The worlds of Battle for Dream Island, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Minecraft, and Roblox are all brought into the last solar system of a dying universe. After they start to settle into their new situation, an apocalyptic event begins, and a group of internet friends, one from each planet, try to survive, and eventually, to stop it.

Features pretty much no canon characters, most of them are based directly on me. All of the worlds are modified to the point that most of them are almost entirely original as well.

The story is a combination of emotions I have experienced, emotions I am experiencing now, ideas that are important to me, and ideas I recreationally think about. Some themes that have been showing up include (in no particular order): companionship, comfort, responsibility, self-worth, value of others, purpose, apathy, motherhood, and hope for mankind.

General Events

This is a brief summary of the major events that take place in the Pastry Parodyme, from beginning to end, generally without getting into the details of characters' motivations and emotions.

Monsters called "Black Stardust Shadows" start showing up on all the four Earths and terrorizing people. Banana Bread and the rest of the Oily Boys have to fight them to survive.

More and more Stardust Shadows appear, and some of them are big enough that they're destroying cities and collapsing civilizations. This event becomes known as the end of the four Earths, the Quadrupocalypse.

The Oily Boys get contacted by Radio, through whom they meet the rest of Clique 2.

V0twys tells the Oily Boys that the Earths (which are people, it turns out) have been speaking to her in her dreams and that she thinks the four of them have been chosen to fight whatever is causing the Quadrupocalypse and save the four Earths.

The Earths reveal the identity of their enemy, the one who has been creating and controlling the Stardust Shadows: the New Sun itself, who now knows who the chosen heroes are and starts talking to and interfering with them.

The Sun reveals that it was also responsible for the rest of the universe being dead, and for dragging the four Earths into it. It turns out the Sun actually wants the Oily Boys to try and fight it so it can kill them and use their liquid determination to mess up other universes.

The Oily Boys (especially Banana Bread) are quite discouraged by all this and consider giving up just so the Sun won't be able to get their determination sauce, but they gather up their courage, get some sick power boosts, and with the help of Clique 2, cook up a plan to kill the Sun.

The Boys pass into the ethereal realm with a bunch of enchanted weapons so they can tear the Sun's magical ethereal heart to shreds. The plan works in every way save for the fact that, after they kill the Sun, it begins to Explode (which they kinda thought was gonna happen but really didn't want to think about).

Having, in fact, saved the multiverse, everyone prepares to accept their fate, but Epic uses the power he got (energy attack absorption) to absorb the entire supernova into himself, screening the Earths from the blast and becoming the replacement for the Sun.

After that, Epic starts restoring order to things. Civilization has been brought to its knees and hit in the head with a baseball bat, but life stays strong on the Earths and returns to outer space. Quadrupocalypse ended, friends saved, world changed forever, the end.

I definitely left out a lot of background and plot arcs and there's more details I haven't gotten into, but there it is. That said, there's a lot I'm not satisfied with yet, so if there's any parts that don't seem all that good, you very well may be right.

More posts will come that get into said details.

Earth of Battle's Fallout Lore

The Earth of Battle's Fallout (EBF) is loosely based on the Earth seen in BFDI. Goiky, Yoyleland, and Yoyle city are there (although much more densely populated/not abandoned than in the show), the Goiky Canal is in fact 500 miles wide, but notably, BFDI itself is just a show on EBF, a well-known work of fiction, (this is true with all the planets and the works they're based on,) so there are some differences between the show's world and EBF. There's no Algebraliens involved, and possibly most importantly, there's currently no recovery or any other readily-available way to reverse death.

The inhabitants of EBF are object people called Objects: inanimate objects, natural or artificial, mysteriously made not-inanimate, with little arms, legs, and faces. There are specific places where Objects seem to be "born", and they know their own "internal" "biology" that makes them alive, but no one knows exactly where they come from or who's bringing them to life (I do it involves celestial beef). They're all over the planet, in all shapes and sizes and material compositions, but there aren't really any other animals there (yes I know the ecological implications of No Bugs would be bad. I haven't worked that out yet).

Objects have similar technology to modern humans, maybe a little more advanced. They specifically have a variety of treatments and other forms of care for fragile or otherwise vulnerable Objects: body sealant treatment, structrual reinforcement surgery, perscription transmutatives, and a system of Vulnerability Classification are all things I've thought of in this regard (fun fact: Banana Bread has had sealant treatment and therefore is no longer very tasty or easy to eat). Around where Banana Bread lives (South Goiky), themed collecting and organized variety competitions (especially over parcels of land) are very popular hobbies among Objects.

Long ago, before EBF was ever called an Earth, there was a fight between two celestial beings in its home universe that resulted in the colateral deaths of all living things. Afterwards, the victor brought the Objects to life as a way to reincarnate all those souls, and made/chose EBF to be their home. Objects are alive because of some ethereal life sauce attached to their souls (the same kind of ethereal as the Sun's heart I talked about). The celestial victor I mentioned (I'm starting to like the name "the Victor" as I write this) only had a certain amount of this stuff, so it was shared among souls in increasingly larger batches; a couple dozen Objects would get an equal split of life sauce for a time, then it would be taken from them and split between twice as many Objects. Eventually, the sauce was running thin enough that any further split would cause them to be born wrong, so the model was changed so that it would be taken from each Object immediately after their death and given to a new one; hence, no recovery anymore. Although, one Object from each of those batches won exclusion from the split, and some of them may be out there still, more alive than all the rest. (Currently this doesn't come up in the story tho.)

Being forced reincarnations with artificial life marks and wounds all Objects, both as individuals and as a collective. The life sauce only makes them resemble living things; when they had more they needed to eat, drink, and breathe, but today's Objects couldn't if they wanted to (I have an idea that they do still feel phantom desires for these things since they used to be actual living beings, which is pretty juicy and angsty). There is a looming sense of purposelessness that most Objects have from being separated from the original contexts of their existences, often covered up with obsessive consumerism or pleasure-centric philosophies and sometimes sending them into emotional spirals and nihilism (Radio is an example of the lattermost and I'll talk about her in another post). I don't want to say that their culture is hopeless putrid garbage because of this but all the other planets silently understand that these guys are not okay and I don't really know what they'd do about it.

Also I don't know where to put these so heres some other details: the native language of South Goiky is Latin (or at least is rendered as such); Objects are all the actual size of the thing that they are (unlike in BFDI where there is, for instance, a matchstick the length and breadth of a pencil); EBF and EPM are from the same universe and most/all of the Objects used to be Pokemon; there are a couple other continents I've thought of (Gouldooba and Poltaid) but haven't detailed nearly as much.

(More to come!)
