THIS IS LIKE THE FULL EXPLANATION OR SOMETHING!!
AU i cannot stop posting abt :3
This AU follows the events of canon with slight deviations, such as:
Twisteds have specific stages!
Stage 1:
Indestinguishable from a wound or spill, you wouldn't even know something was wrong.
Stage 2:
Slightly less control of movement from time to time, may experience random shakes or jolts, but it's very sporatic.
Stage 3:
Weakened mental state, eyes MAY change. It's different for everyone, toons like Poppy, Boxten and Cosmo would be more subject to crying, someone like Shrimpo would be more subject to anger and lashing out.
Stage 4:
Physical changes
Example: If Cosmo twisted, stage 4 is around when his claw would grow. Toons who are exposed to less ichor/are stronger have less physical changes.
Stage 5:
Breakdowns, randomly crying or getting into fits. Usually panic attacks, lashing out, or sobbing. Toons with stronger mental states usually don't go through this stage!
Stage 6:
In between normal and fully infected, Toons in this state are very unpredictable and can snap if triggered. They also have less control over their strength, so Toons that are affectionate (such as Goob) may be more accidentally aggressive with their affection.
Stage 7:
Fully infected. Very prone to being aggressive, but in some cases can still be snapped out of it and even recognize loved ones. Usually they only recognize those closest to them. For example, Twisted Cosmo would recognize Sprout and Ginger, but not Boxten.
Stage 8:
Completely infected beyond repair/copy twisteds. Always aggresive. Very hard to tell them from stage 7. Stage 8 cannot be reversed.
Reversal of stages down to 5 is possible, Twisted Toons below stage eight can be calmed/tamed, but it takes a lot of effort. Stages cannot be stopped only delayed or reversed after stage 6 as low as 5. Physical changes are permanant. No one is really sure if toons can ever be fully healed or be mostly back to normal mentally. Brightney is mainly in charge of working with recovered Twisted Toons.
Copy twisteds!
Copy Twisteds are not actual Toons, but instead are 100% purely ichor. They are automatically stage 8 and cannot be changed from stage 8. Copy Twisteds only mimick a set roster of Toons and will only mimick a new toon if that Toon has been infected. Impossible to tell from real stage 7 Toons, which is why saving stage 7 toons is so hard. Very risky. Copy Twisteds cannot mimick mains or Dandy because uhh lore reasons. Copy Twisteds cannot be tamed.
New designs!
Fun little designs. :3
Example:
(My Shelly Redesign)
Focus on relationships!
Focus on characters and their dynamic because that's my favorite part of a story. :3
To me, if something doesn't have good dynamics or characters, it's hard to credit it for anything else. So I try my best!
Original story!
While the story's past does try to follow canon, all current events are written by me, and if they end up being close to canon or another AU—oh well. 😭
It's not my intention to copy any another AU but I take mostly from canon so it might be similar
Q&A with Toons!
Eventually I will make a place to ask Toons questions, for now, my asks aren't for that. There'll probably be an extra acc for this.
General info:
This AU focuses mainly on—well, the mains. Each story is told in a general one and each character gets focus and development. There will be deaths of course. This takes place during the current in-game events! :3
Toons can be revived in this AU as long as their remains of ichor are collected! They can be put back together (FNAF REF!??! Im sorry 😭) if brought to Dandy. If their puddle is left alone for too long, it dissolves or turns into an unreversable stage 8 toon, basically a copy twisted.
There are roles for toons generally but mainly going on runs, such as the grim reaper (collecting any dead toons ichor puddles so they can be brought back), supplier (brings extra supplies), extra food scout (self explanatory), and others! Brightney has a very special position of working with Twisteds and Cosmo and Sprout are mainly in the infirmary and help physically with Twisteds.
Each chapter is in comic form, may be some doodles/writing or non-canon comics.
Everything else I post (including DW) stuff is unrelated. Everything related to the AU will ALWAYS be labeled as such.
If you have any questions about the AU, feel free to ask and I will answer as best as I can!
Thank you for reading!

4th part lets goooo
(I try to stick as close to canon as possible with slight deviations)
Mainly designs + personalities/extra stuff
POPPY!!
Poppy still keeps her iconic bow but I have her a jacket and shorts because I thought it looked nice and a lot of other people design her this way too. Same with the buns! I changed her atrocious socks and the orange was blinding and ugly so it's more yellow now.
I was hesitant to give anyone other than Sprout and Cosmo a friendship bracelet because their trinkets are very important to their arc and story as well as overall themes of their friendship. Buuuuut I decided to just give it to her so as a starter she'd have a matching thing to Boxten. :P
Poppy is very energetic and a great friend, she's also very brave.
BOXTEN!!
He's just a silly little guy. Had his socks to match Poppy as well + Poppy bracelet. Boxten is slightly nervous and cautious around people as well as shy. He's nice though, and always willing to help out his fellow toons.
COSMO!!
Cosmo has four versions. 😭
Cosmo is a shy and cautious toon but very open once you get to know hin. He's usually always with his best friend, Sprout!
Cosmo is a very self-sacrificing and kind toon, making sure everyone is better before he is. Sprout HATES this.
Alt design
Cosmo w/ apron (to match Sprout)
Cosmo (full)
The first one is probably what I'll go with, and will be canon to the AU.
SHRIMPO!!
Wanted elements of his emo skin cuz it matches. Shrimpo is in constant physical pain which is why he's so grouchy. Also because he's made to be a typical bully character. However, Shrimpo will get an actual character and development.
LOOEY!!
NEED to find a new suit color, clashes too much. I HATE his original colors so I tweaked them a bit. Gave him his little knot. :3
Also og design cuz I like it!
TISHA!!
Gave her gloves n full clothes cuz she's a clean freak. Also shoesies because I feel like her not having shoes would be a huge germ hazard for her!!
Pt 3 of designs!!
Pt 3 of designs!!
(I try to stick as close to canon as possible with slight deviations)
Mainly designs + personalities/extra stuff
BRIGHTNEY!!
I gave her glasses because yes. She kinda looks like a librarian which I guess fits her but I'm not that invested in her character so I didn't do as much, y'know? She works hard to take care of rescued twisteds and find ways to calm them down. And... Sorta overworks herself to keep herself busy. She has to distract from the horrible situation somehow, huh?
CONNIE!!
Her hair inspired by that one cosplayer. Just had fun with her, matching earrings with Gigi. :3
Connie is unbothered as well which makes sense. She's immune!! Every twisted Connie you see is not actually her.
FINN!!
I love him so much but I had no idea what to do for him. 😭 Y'ALL SEEM TO FORGET ABOUT BARNABY!! :(
Pretty unable to be serious, humor is how he copes.
RAZZLE & DAZZLE!!
I had so much fun with their design!! Theatre kid. :3 I gave them ribbons/bows because I can. Also yin and yang. :D
RODGER!!
Again, had no idea to really what to do for him.
Always curious, spends a lot of time researching the ichor and twisteds.
Dad to Toodles of course.
TEAGAN!!
Changed up her dress a bit for fun! Fancy handle too!!
She is not a mom figure because I don't ship teacase 😭 and I think she more just plays tea party with Toodles from time to time.
TOODLES!!!
I had a lot of fun designing her!!! Fun socks, her earrings match Glisten's, as she looks up to him. The flashlight on her bracelet actually works! It was given to her by Glisten after her noticed her fear of the dark.
She's a working 8 ball! If you shake her, on the back of her head is the little triangle that gives answers. :3
Pt 2!!!
RARE HC'S!!
(Note that these are all my takes on things and are not canon to Dandy's World unless stated otherwise but every single headcanon is canon to my au!)
Also some characters may have less because I am not as interested and invested in them, sorry!

Goob would be good at machines if it weren't for his arms
Goob tries his best to respect toon's boundaries and not to hug people he knows doesn't like it
After the interaction with Rodger (the one about using his ability) Goob actually has seen it as something to do to protect toons rather than just hugging them for fun
Goob is pan
Goob goes by he/him
-Scraps-
Scraps loves drawing
Scraps likes Vee, but feels bad Vee doesn't like her
Her tail and mannerisms work like a cat
She growls and hisses when threatened or upset

Pt 2 of designs!!
(I try to stick as close to canon as possible with slight deviations)
Mainly designs + personalities/extra stuff
FLUTTER!!
To be honest I didn't really know what to do for her, I already liked her base design so I just added a few things and more heart motifs! Gigi does a lot for Flutter since she can't grab things and is mute.
GIGI!!
Keychain and jeans!! Also bigger hoodie :D
Gigi isn't really bothered by the current situation, no one really knows why or cares.
GLISTEN!!
I tried to do holographic and it failed miserably so oh well. Glisten is confident on the surface but underneath is deeply insecure. He has a small rivalry with Vee.
Alt where I didn't screw up
GOOB!!!!
Goggles because I can. I dunno why he has an inventor vibe but yeah. Not much to say, he cries easily so be nice.
SCRAPS!!
I changed her ATROCIOUS colors n dress and made her more cat-like, I think it looks better. 😭
She's always there to support her brother and is very playful!
PT 1:
MAIN HC'S!!!!

If you listen closely, Vee makes a soft humming noise
Vee has a hard time expressing her emotions
Vee is lesbian

Dandy genuinely does care for his friends
Dandy is morally grey

Dandy is bi

-Shelly Fossilian-

Shelly is closest to Astro
Shelly has a horrible fear of being forgotten and ignored, so when people pay attention to her she gets attachted to it

-Pebble Dancifer Jr.-
Pebble gets into and eats things when he's angry
Pebble would only ever bite if Dandy told him to
Pebble is very worried about Dandy, and instead of sleeping on his dog bed sleeps by Dandy
Pebble hangs out with Astro more because sometimes Dandy isolates himself from even Pebble
For the lack of ears, Pebble has great hearing and is very alert
-Sprout [REDACTED]- <- For his sake
Sprout despises his last name (canon) and will walk away if someone says it. If Cosmo were to say it, he would still get mad at Cosmo
Sprout is very close to Cosmo, but also good friends with Ginger because he wants to make a good impression on Cosmo's cousin
In fact, Sprout is friendlier with all of the christmas toons in the current situation because he doesn't see them much
Sprout (and Cosmo) cooks all of the meals
Sprout likes seafood a lot
Sprout refuses to sit down and read a book, including a cooking book so Cosmo has to read it
He never takes off his friendship bracelet
If Sprout saw someone eat a strawberry, he wouldn't care, it's normal

Sprout is bi

Main designs for my au comic thing im gonna make :3
(I try to stick as close to canon as possible with slight deviations)
Mainly designs + personalities/extra stuff
VEE!!!
Vee—being a robot and all—has a hard time expressing her emotions. She doesn't really know how to compliment people (based off her interaction with Brightney) or interact properly. She can come off as rude and cold but she isn't heartless.
ASTRO!!!! :D
Astro is often tired and prefers sleeping over doing runs. I gave him comfy clothes because he deserves it. I forgot to add moon motifs 😭
Astro can come off as a little cold but he's really just an introvert who has a lot on his mind.
DANDY!!
The one behind it all. It's all his fault. Dandy isn't evil, just a bit morally grey. He's done questionable things and refuses to talk to anyone post ichor situation but he genuinely was friends with everyone and does care about them, especially Astro.
Alt Dandy Design
SHELLY!!! :DD
She was my fav to design!! I gave her gloves and boots as well as pants under her dress so she's more comfortable doing archeology. Goggles n bandana were for fun, and she has her trinket!! Shelly is a sweet and caring toon who loves to talk about dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures/plants. She has a fear of being forgotten though, and being ignored doesn't help...
Maybe all she needs is some love and recognition...?
PEBBLE!!
Didn't really know what to do for Pebs and I couldn't figure out how to draw the color so I got rid of his dead inside look and gave him a little bone bow tie!! (Just like his owner :P)
Pebble has a bit of a staring problem and gets a little angry when his treats are taken away, but he's overall a good boy.
SPROUT!!! :3
Second fav design.
Sprout is an overprotective toon (especially to Cosmo) ever since the ichor incident, he's been a bit more closed off and bold, seeming less kind. Deep down, however, he's still the same cheerful sweet toon, he's just more focused on survival now. He often brushes off other's worries due to circumstances. He still loves baking with Cosmo when he can.
CURRENT SITUATION/TATTERED DESIGNS!!
They grumpy
Vee -
Her ever growing suspicion is something Dandy hates. Always attempting to "talk" to him, she's never able to get the chance. Vee finds runs an annoyance, but knows they're necessary. She tends to try to go through them as fast as possible.
Astro -
More tired than ever, Astro knows a lot no one else does. He seems to be the only one still supporting Dandy...
Dandy -
...
Shelly -
Shelly is more scared than ever, but still tries her best. She is more supportive than ever and is always there to lend the other toons a hand.
Pebble -
Misses his owner a lot, Pebble tends to see Astro more often now. He's a bit banged up from all the running and getting hit he does, so please be gentle with him.
Sprout -
Suspicious of Dandy as well, but less so. Although he also wants to know what the hell is going on, his priorities are much more focused on keeping himself and Cosmo safe and keeping the others alive. He switched his pants to shorts for more mobility and convenience.
cozy shelly bc she deserves it :(
