#kid icarus uprising
Thinking ‘bout making a 3 min + Kid Icarus Uprising animatic sometime. Maybe after I start learning how to storyboard this semester or during. I like to imagine as Pit gets older he’s more stressed and has an “Under the Surface” breakdown to Dark Pit
I’m mentally working on the composition of how it would turn out lol. Under the Surface/Surface Pressure from Encanto is such a bop
@farvaduvet This is a what-if scenario where Pit is found by Viridi when he was still a small child. Just an angry downy-winged fluffball with some major “totally E10+” sass.
He confronts Hades because why not
In general, I’m pretty sure Pit is always ready to throw hands with any god or goddess at any age.
(AU) Baby Pit? Probably bit Palutena or something idk lol
*Shakes flames off hand from drawing and editing so much* Worth it! Here’s the project I’ve been working on for your AU @farvaduvet:)
This is a short little tweened amv centered around Pit and Wilted Pit, and their insecurities. Very fun to draw and edit, half pain half fun to tween/animate, and an overall success! I experimented a lot and it turned out very close to how I envisioned it. Still some flaws here and there, but I really like how it turned out ^^
More about the video in my tags! I also am working on one more small video related to your AU. That one has no angst, it’s just a really funny idea to me. You’ll see :)

Surface Pressure & Pegasus Feathers AU/fic Concepts: Zephyr Lily / Rain Flower :)
Here is a quick visual aid for Zephyr Lily (also known as Rain Flower in Skyworld), Dark Pit’s pegasus companion in my KUI AU/fic! (Btw if you’re seeing this concept for the first time, everything related is linked in my fic under read more :)
Here are some story-related fun facts ^^
-She was adopted by her herd when she was a foal (Snowfall Fury & Dust Storm took care of her, and she later helped look after their foals (her siblings) for a while before meeting Dark Pit and deciding to leave the nest to help him with his missions)
-Inspiration for her design/name: When I was younger I got a black horse stuffed animal with a white spot on its forehead, which was like the center of a flower to me, so I named her Flower!
Dark Pit thinks the same thing, except he chooses a specific kind of flower: A rainflower/zephyrlily :)
Because of her inspiration, I like the idea that she was a stuffed animal brought to life through some magic means somehow. I don’t know how it would make sense technically, but I think it makes her being drawn to Dark Pit extra special because they were both born from magic ^^
-Rainflowers symbolize rebirth, new beginnings and big expectations (very relevant to Dark Pit in this fic)
It also has another meaning: "I love you back, I must atone for my sins, I will never forget you"
I would split this between three characters.
I love you back (Dark Pit), I must atone for my sins [mistakes] (Palutena), I will never forget you (Pit)
But telling you exactly why would be spoilers lol, I like to be cryptic ;)))
You can definitely theorize though, all will be clearer eventually! ^^
“You gotta do something about that”
Here’s an illustration for a scene from my new fic/AU! :)
I think another reason why Dark Pit calls Pit a puppet is because that’s how Pit feels sometimes, and here those feelings are manifested in a vivid dream (nightmare, beyond this point).
Some more information about this AU under read more + link to story ^^

CW: Blood (not really graphic though lol)
Dark Pit’s wing is injured from a fight, and he keeps to himself because of how badly it stings. Arlon sees how serious that wound is however and makes sure the young angel understands that he can’t leave injuries untreated. Then Dark Pit lets him treat it, putting aside his pride ^^
I just want more Arlon & Dark Pit interactions lol :)
THE THOT CHARACTER OF THE DAY IS
Palutena from the Kid Icarus series
B-babies…
