@/everyone who keeps saying that Movie!Ambrosius would beat the shit out of Comic!Ambrosius, I see this and I agree and I love you.
Some crooked illustrations about redemption and love and recovery because I was listening to AJJ again
Something something about Amb finally being free from the Institution
Lyrics- Free Bird (AJJ)
There's a tongue in my mouth
There's a lock on the door
And I can't imagine wishing for more
I've paid for my crimes
And I've unlied my lies
And now I'm adorned with a clever disguise
I'm free as a bird
the original 2015 graphic novel is more insane than the movie cuz like
exhibit A: nimona expresses liking pizza and ballister at first refuses her asking to order in because the delivery to his mindfuck nowhere lair is expensive . later, when an accident happens and nimona gets upset, he remembers that she liked pizza and offers to order in . if that isnt dad behavior idk what that is (im fatherless)
exhibit B :
they went to a science expo slash carnival . they went undercover . a stand seller mistakes them for a father & son and they just... went with it . he carries nimona around . what the fuck man
exhibit C :
ballister freaks the FUCK out when she gets injured way more than he did in the movie and then proceeds to play board games with her to cheer her up
oops hit tumblr picture limit i will continue my dad ballister propaganda in the reblogs
I saw that people are making fan children of Blackheart and Ambrosius now. Thought I'd introduce my idea on how they had a kid in my version.
Brief summary: The Director decided to make a clone using Ballister Blackheart and Ambrosius Goldenloin's DNA in an attempt to create a next generation "perfect" hero.
If your saying Ambrosius and Ballister do cannibalism, I will admit, I also used to fantasize Ballister a cannibal...
ambrosius ballister cannibalism thoughts question mark
I still can't stop looking at this until now
Im totally not writing a medieval Nimona au where I promised I'd do some doodles of the designs BC I wanted an in-between design of Blackheart and Boldheart, on AO3 nuh uh
... edit but shh here's the link to the fic I can't write well for the life of me but enjoy?? lmao???
I think my first was Doctor Strange then Ballister.
Just a thought, but what if:
I was watching John Wick and I thought of this idea: This is when Ballister and Nimona were having their argument and Nim leaves, but Bal wasn't followed by Todd and the other knights, so they didn't show up. So Ballister had some time to think for himself and realized his mistake, before looking at the news to see that Nimona has been killed (this is where she hasn't turned into her shadow form, idk how but just roll with it). Ballister goes "Okay, you made me feel like an outcast, treat me like shit, framed me for killing the queen on my ceremony, and now killed my sidekick when I just thought about apologizing to them! You want me to play the villain so bad? Fine, let's play." Then goes ape shit killing everyone (John Wick style) in the institute as revenge for Nimona.
Like I said, just a thought.
I was trying to make a Nimona au with Ballister being some powerful God (or Archon or Celestial or whatever you want to call it) only to realize that I accidentally made him like Raiden Ei...
I even made an a child oc for him that was abandoned like Scaramouche, but only Ballister didn't bring the puppet to life, someone else did and isn't aware about it while the puppet thought he abandoned them (I mean, he technically did, just not when they were brought to life)
(I don't actually have the game and I'm quite new to the Genshin Impact fandom, so correct me if I got the two character's story wrong...)
You know how in the comic, Blackheart and Goldenlion were arch enemies for 15 years but in the end of the comic, they become a couple again? For some odd reason, I was reminded of them... minus the 15 year divorce.
I didn't actually watch the movie because I have a short attention span which makes it difficult for me to actually watch movies in general... but I did find their fight scenes cool.
Has anyone already thought of this idea yet? Also, yes, I'm back after finishing exam week.
Sharing some of my unfinished Nimona aus because... well... I just thought of sharing it, Part 2.2
This the second part of my last post about the tale of the Blackheart angel
(I don't actually know the whole storyline of the comic version. I've seen a few pictures, but not really enough to say I've read it)
After Ambrosius was taken in by the institute, he met Ballister, a teacher who trains the students at the institute to become knights. - (You might think that this is some kind inappropriate adult x teenager relationship kind of shit. But I swear in the judgement of the ✨oratrice mecanique d'analyse cardinale✨ that it's NOT what the backstory is about, okay? Ballister only fell in love with Ambrosius AFTER the event of Nimona)
Ballister would be there to help Ambrosius with his studies and defend him from the other trainees when they bullied him.
Ambrosius first idolize and looked up to Ballister because if his skill and teaching as a knight and because he defended him from the bullies. But in the later years he secretly fell in love with him (like he always would).
During the jousting competition, Ambrosius has to win a joust against his teacher in order to be proven that he can become a knight. Of course Ballister wins the joust, Ambrosius hated loosing and shot Ballister's arm off. - (I am again debating if Ballister should actually loose his arm or have angelic regeneration...)
Skip to Nimona and Ballister's argument. When Nimona scratches the back of the couch and starts to turn a bit monstrous, instead of grabbing the sword, Ballister turns into his fallen form as an act of defense again Nim.
Skip again to the battle. Ballister tries to calm the the monster form of Nimona, but in the end he was forced to defend himself (and the kingdom) by turning into fallen form and defeated the monster with his demonic side (or powers). (So that means that Meredith's device is not broken, ✨yay✨)
Skip to the hospital scene. Ballister did not have a broken left arm because of ✨angelic regeneration✨. Speaking of regeneration, he secretly made Ambrosius's healing progress faster while he was in the coma.
This is my original idea for his design
Five eyes (Two version if it because I thought it looks cool in my head and I couldn't choose which one) -Version 1: two above his normal eyes and the third vertically on his forehead. -Version 2: two below his normal eyes and the third on his forehead.
Black horns curving backwards with a red vein-like design, two gold halos with eyes criss-cross covering his normal eyes.
Six "burned" wings; The feather color/design is from black on the top, to a mix color of black and gold on the middle, then fading to light gold on the bottom. (why do I have an addiction to adding gold? ;-;)
A long black tail, a red crystal with black vein coming out of it on the center of his back, and black marking on his arms and legs.
Yeah the design is the same as the Golden Guardian but in a fallen form.
(Some are reused from the Golden Guardian au. Also, same thing, your guess on which one is cannon on my au)
Ballister can hide his wings, halos, horns, tail, and his many eyes.
He can make himself invisible to humans and other creatures. Another fact about his invisibility is that he can make himself visible to whoever he chooses.
Another idea on how Ballister escape other than using his invisibility. There were times when Ballister would have had no chance to escape, and when the guards finally caught up to him, they would see that he was no longer there. I had this idea where Ballister can turn into a shadow and hide within shadows of other objects or just easily escape.
Since I heard that Nimona can see the dead, I thought of this idea that even if Ballister is in his human form to others, he's always in his fallen form in her eyes.
There was a once time during training years when Ambrosius accidentally finds Ballister in his fallen form. But since he only witnessed it once and has a bad memory, so he has already forgotten about it.
Speaking of bad memory. When Ballister is alone and/or comfortable, he would temporarily reveal his fallen form (but only inside the house), and Ambrosius would freak out it. (Cue brosius screaming for the second, maybe third, time of the month after seeing Bal in his fallen form)
I thought it would be wholesome that Ballister would carry Ambrosius and fly with him on a peaceful and quiet night. Sometime Amb would enjoy the ride, sometimes he would be frighten from how high they are and would hold on tight to Ballister.
A few moments when Ballister would secretly use his powers when fighting alone with Ambrosius. But he mostly is against using his powers in battle because "it wouldn't be a fair fight."
In rare moments, Ballister would use his wings to hold brosius close.
Ballister normally has his horns out, but only inside the house. Because Zee likes to look at it, touch it, and even sometimes try to decorate them with gold accessories. Blackheart's tail is actually sensitive to he rarely let's Amb touch it.
There were a few conversations of Nimona trying to convince Ballister to start a cult because of the whole fallen angel thing.
Meredith found out when Ballister was stretching his body and (unconsciously) stretched his wings too. This is my thought on what her honest reaction was. "Oh, cool" *continues to do whatever she was doing*
This is very long, but not as long as the golden guardian version. Anyways, I also tried to color the names and used as many nicknames as I know because I thought it would look cool. Also, sorry it took long, I lost motivation and my au notes.
Peace out~ *locks myself back in my room*
Sharing some of my unfinished Nimona aus because... well... I just thought of sharing it, Part 2.1
since my last post was a guardian angel au, let show my fallen angel au. Now believe it or not, but this a tale that I made for the fallen angel au on how Ballister became a fallen angel. If your asking why is the tale is about Blackheart instead of Boldheart, well there is a simple explanation to that... This was originally made for the comic version. Anyways, this is a part 2.1 because the details and the (uncomplete) storyline will be in another post. Have fun with this one for now.
Thousands of years before mankind came into existence, it began with the betrayal of Lucifer, an archangel who rose up against Heaven and was cast down to the darkest corner of the abyss. With him fell his followers, a legion of demonic spirits who joined him in his quest for eternal domination.
However, one angel, Ballister Blackheart, found himself manipulated and corrupted by Lucifer, only to later realize his grave mistake. He chose to turn away from the demonic pact that threatened to consume the mortal world. As the other angels fell, Ballister felt the pull of their power, but his mind was strong enough to resist the allure of darkness.
With eternal punishment awaiting him in Heaven and the abyss ready to consume him, Ballister faced a difficult choice. He chose instead to flee and find refuge among the mortal world that was made for God's humans. He hid his true identity and abilities, masking himself as a mere human. Though as much as would want to forget, he could not erase his past or the power that flowed through his veins.
As a result of his dark choices, Ballister developed a few demonic traits while maintaining his angelic heritage, becoming a force to be reckoned with. However, he knew that if his true identity was ever revealed, Heaven and Hell would come down on him with untold wrath. Therefore, he decided to keep a low profile while using his powers for the greater good.
Ballister's past as an archangel continued to haunt him, and he struggled to grapple with the memories of his time in Heaven and the choices that led to his downfall. And so, the tale of the Blackheart angel lives on, a powerful story of redemption, regret, and the struggle between light and dark.
(A part of me wants to remake the tale.. but that's gonna be a problem for future me because these are call "Nimona unfinished aus" for a reason)
The wall's a whole hell of a lot more depressing when you realize it wasn't designed to keep monsters away, but designed to keep Nimona away.
watched Nimona. i loved it. i'm definitely gonna pick up the book at somepoint.
