Introduction

Welcome to my second ship manifesto, and this time I would like to re-visit an old topic I already talked about a few years ago. I’ll be talking about Cravex and Mortdred, and why I love this couple so much!

Yes, Visionaries is the cartoon that just keeps giving because I’m still finding things to talk about. And yes, I’m going to be talking Mortdred and Cravex, again. But, it’s in a more romantic angle than my last study about them. Mainly, I can’t hide my bias with these two and I feel this will allow me to explain some points further than last time.

I know some people will feel as though I’m reaching with this one. Don’t say it because I have my moments where I feel like I am. But, this is a ship manifesto so this is more for fun. It’s also mainly, due to how short this series is, a lot of it is my own interpretations and speculations on these two because they’re were one of the many characters that didn’t get it a chance. So, some of it is more covert in nature (I’m looking at you, Cravex). So please excuse me for becoming unhinged in this work. As I said before, I’m biased about them.

So, I will be retreading some areas if you haven’t read my character analyses about these two, and relationship study. Also, I wanted to talk about some new things I’ve found along with some points I’ve missed in my relationship study. Plus, an interpretation I had of Mortdred that in hindsight was completely wrong.

And without further ado, let’s get right to it.
 

The Full Manifesto )

Can be read on AO3 (here) or SquidgeWorld (here).

Fandom: Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light

Ratings: G

Warnings: No Warnings Apply

Note(s): Finally, I'm back to writing some new material! It's been awhile, hasn't it? The job search still sucks, so I decided to take my mind off of it and write something fluffy for a change.

I think Lexor in the comic deserves to have something good happen to him for once. So, I thought about what happened in the third issue, The Star Stone, in the background with him and Virulina, and it went from from there.

I still hold the opinion that either Cravex in the cartoon or Lexor in the comic would be better boyfriends to Mortdred than Darkstorm.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by, as always.

Summary: Lexor gives Mortdred a modest bouquet as a token of his thanks -along with some hidden feelings for the steward-. But, how Mortdred will react is what worries him the most.

Word Count: 264

Pairing(s): Lexor/Mortdred

Charater(s): Lexor, Mortdred

It was the morning after Leoric and Fletchen's wedding, and Feryl was having trouble coming to terms with that fact. But, an unlikely friend would step in to help him out.

Author's Note: Inspired by Heather Dale's song "May Queen".

End of Chapter Notes:
The first fic of the new year! This one took awhile but it was still fun to write. I have other WIPs in my folders and hopefully I'll finish one of them. Any who, I hope you enjoyed it and happy late new year's!

Pairings: Cravex & Mortdred; Cravex/Mortdred

Word Count: 596

Summary: "When I woke up, I was a Phylot."

Cravex finds himself trapped in an abandoned zoo that leads to the Lost Shrine. Unable to transform back into his human form, he sees that the other knights and lords have met the same fate. Infuriated, he develops an idea. As he attempts to make his escape, he can't help but wonder to himself; why does it feel like he might be forgetting someone?

Author's Note: I want to give a huge thank you to The-06 on Tumblr for beta reading the story. Without her, I don't think I would ever finish it.

This ficlet takes place during the "The Trail of the Three Wizards" episode, somewhere about halfway through the second act.

Without further ado, enjoy!

This piece of fanart was posted back in 2021 on Pillowfort, and I wanted an excuse to use that new white gel pen I bought. Surprisingly, I still like it! :D

Author's Note: Fair warning, if you breezed through the tags for some reason. If you like the Action Lab comic canon, may I suggest you go back and read something else if you're going to be complaining about this pairing. This is for my own enjoyment and if anyone else wants to join in be my guest, let's gush about it!

So in Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light, there are moments where Mortdred shows impressive feats of strength. Seriously, he's pretty damn strong from these two episodes here and here. I like to headcanon that the other strong guys keep freaking out a little whenever Mortdred does the same thing that they can do, if not the task itself has more weight to it. Also, Mortdred can totally carry Cravex bridal style -full armor, no less- and it's like carrying a watermelon around for him.



I got to re-draw this piece one of these days.

I completely forgot about this one! I mentioned in one of my posts talking about another oddball pair. This time it's about Sly Rax and Cliff Dagger from M.A.S.K. Despite M.A.S.K. being average, I always came back just for those two in the early episodes. There was something about their dynamic that held some promise, and I can see it work and have the eventually break up. Yes, I wrote a fanfic centered around the idea of them meeting up by accident during the racing season.

I talked about how I wasn't the biggest fan on how they were dumbed down after the Panda Power episode. I missed their witty and pun-tastic banter; you never knew what you had until it's gone. Well, the episodes are up on Youtube for free so it's not truly gone.

Anyway, I wanted to gush about why I think these two worked best as a duo than on their own. I love me some villain ships! Baddies that are terrible, and utter troublemakers to everyone else but sweet only to each other.

You can go AO3 from here, or read the manifesto below the cut!

Sly and Cliff do make a good couple! )

Okay, I've been trying to find that old shipping thread from that paradigm-city archived forums, and I for the life of me can't find it. If I do find it I'll update this journal (heck, I was meaning to update my PF post about it, as well).

UPDATE: I finally found the thread in question! Here's the link to the archived forums to take a look.

Right, so, in the hardest to find thread was about shipping with The Big O characters, and I was surprised that one person could come up with a small hand full for Schwarzwald of all characters. Man, 2000's shipping culture was its own dumpster fire...

What really got my attention was this one pairing: Schwarzwald/Beck. Yes, the same Schwarzwald and the same Beck. When I first saw this my first thought was that the only thing in common was their distaste toward Roger. I discussed this with my brother and we bounced some ideas around, and we found that with these two together it would be filled with misadventures and hi-jinks that it reaches dangerously close to Sam and Max levels of absurdity.

I'm actually tempted to finish this one fanfic about them bumping into each one day and seeing where those two take us. I was thinking of some AU with the manga with the Gigadeus for the fun of it and seeing what happens from there. But first, I have to finish my Visionaries hanahaki disease fanfic before going back to that.
