Rebels In The Night
Feels like your life is over. Feels like all hope is gone. You kiss it all away. Maybe, maybe- This is a second coming. This is a call to arms! Your finest hour won't be Wasted, wasted! Hey, hey! Hell is what you make, make! Rise against your fate, fate! Nothing's gonna keep you down! Even if it's killing you! Because you know the truth! Listen up, listen up; There's a devil in the church! Got a bullet in the chamber, And this is gonna hurt! Let it out, let it out! You can scream and you can shout! Keep your secrets in the shadows and you'll be sorry!
(There comes a time you've gotta face it, face it)
Through the mist, through the woods,
Through the darkness and the shadows-
It's a nightmare, but it's one exciting ride!
Say a prayer, then we're there-
At the drawbridge of a castle.
And there's something truly terrible inside!
It's a beast, he's got fangs, razor sharp ones-
Massive paws, killer claws for the feast!
Hear him roar, see him foam!
But we're not coming home
'Til he's dead!
Good and dead!
Kill the beast!
-
Hearts ablaze, banners high!
We go marching into battle!
Unafraid, although the danger's just increased!
Raise the flag, sing the song!
Here we come, we're 50 strong!
And 50 Frenchmen can't be wrong!
Let's kill the Beast!
Kill the beast, kill the beast!
my sons!!!! look at my boys!!!! đź’•đź’•đź’•
Commissions for @yaboy-robin of their ocs Hitchcock and Gwendolyn! đź’«
Please come in time with me! And we will see! The beginning to be!
They fought, a very long time ago. Before, they were comrades. Before that, friends. And, even before that, in the longest time ago.... Maybe, just maybe, when it was just them-
Was it love? They were never sure.
I don’t think Hitchcock is okay.

brain:Â nope; hitchcock has a hip scar and trouble walking without a cane now. fuck you
me:
me: aight.
young, rebellion era Hitchcock! He’s still boisterous and kind, but not gone like he is later in life. He has an anger in him he doesn’t remember later in life, and rushes into decisions. Like the eventual decision to confront Boss Ubris. He is not ready for the massive loss of life he will face....
He has the wherewithal to style his hair into a braid instead of throwing it into a ponytail like he does later in life. No beard either. And, his hair has not gone white yet! Still bright red. And, he actually has pierced ears! But he doesn’t really remember this later.Â
A squared display That remembers when! That leads the way To live in “Then”! (But why live it again?) Those children- The men-! Mm, never again! Is it to change, Bend, Shift the way things were? To turn the mystery To a history you prefer? To take it back? The film to black? The shot to blur? Or-?
Who cares what happened after?
A small sketch to test out a concept.
Hitchcock has a small.... issue with blood. He's not.... scared of it, necessarily. It’s just.... any time he sees it-
Their screams fill the air. (Who's? And why-) His troops beg for mercy. (His? He's never.... Has he? A long forgotten mission maybe?) Ubris shows no mercy (Ubris? He's never liked Ubris. He never could place why. Well-) Ubris's face shows no emotion. (Sometimes something pricks at his mind.) Their blood colors Ubris's cloak a different color. (This very scene sometimes.) Please please please just let it stop- (He never remembers that the memory passed by until it passes again) Ubris coldly tells Hitchcock it's over (What's over? What is he forgetting?) So long as he never tries this again- (Tries what? What had he done?) He could live. (Why is he crying- living is good!)
The blood is dry and caked into him by the time he forgets. Did he spill food coloring? Odd. He doesn't remember. He should clean up.
This sickness I'm afflicted with Has got my brain decaying
I know my God has damned me. My fate remains unmolded! Guess it runs in the family. My sense of self; corroded!
My blackened blood is boilin', I feel my fear no more. The scent of dead flesh spoilin', Have I become a corpse? - Now, you know the price, Gotta pay it now! If you have a life, Time to lay it down! Heed not the voice of reason, It only tells you lies! Obey your sins and demons Then see through evil's eyes!
I think Hitchcock might have some rebellion in his past too.... :3c
AAAA my babyyyyy <3!! I love this so much thank you!!

At the beginning of everything, there were but deities arranging everything for the coming mortals. Boss, the deity of time, found that the job of making sure time stayed linear within their own timelines a terribly overwhelming task. In order to help, Boss experimented with creating a helper species. Agents who could correct anything that needed fixing while Boss kept an eye on time itself.
The first creation, after many a test, was Hitchcock.
Hitchcock has been around since before almost any other being. They have seen societies rise and fall, the creation of new creatures and their extinction, and have gained the admiration and praise of every other arglwydd amser in existence - despite none knowing their true history.
Being the first creation of Boss, at the time still going by Ubris, made for Hitchcock to see the deity do some.... terrible things. Things that didn't need to be done in the name of a fate that wasn't necessary. Terrible things to Boss's own creations, even letting Hitchcock's fellow arglwydd amsers die - forever lost to time. It didn't help that Hitchcock saw that seeing into time as a burden to many of the others arglwydd amsers, and many wished they weren't created as this.Â
Hitchcock couldn't take it and created a rebellion, gathering the few arglwydd amsers who were around at the time in his ranks. They planned to confront Ubris, and even end the deity if Ubris wouldn't listen to reason.Â
They planned and trained and were cocky. They weren't ready. All of the arglwydd amsers were slaughtered by Ubris..... Except Hitchcock.
Ubris didn't want to kill the first creation Ubris ever made. Ubris promised to let Hitchcock live. So long as Hitchcock never tried anything like this again. And never told any future arglwydd amsers what happened. The event would become a mere myth. Hitchcock, fearful for their life and horrified at seeing this all.... Accepted.
Hitchcock grew bitter, watching Ubris, now called Boss, create overly loyal arglwydd amsers. Watched Boss try to give the new arglwydd amsers freedoms that the early ones didn't have. Hitchcock took that bitterness and created a cafe. A restaurant within the time stream (what arglwydd amsers use to travel throughout time) that could be a sanctuary for the arglwydd amsers. A place for them to relax, vent, and socialize. Hitchcock couldn't rebel anymore, but they could help their fellow arglwydd amsers the best they could.
It helped that, over time, being alive so long gave Hitchcock an ability no other arglwydd amser had. See, any arglwydd amser can foresee into timelines. But, this power is limited. They cannot see events they are involved in, and are more likely to see events that are more likely to happen. Hitchcock, however, can see it all. They create predictions that, even if they do not come true, still have the echos and impressions of what could have been around. Because of this, many come to Hitchcock's bar in order to gain insight into their own future. As, it's not something they can see themselves. Hitchcock is a bit tired of having to do this, but is oblivious to it.
In fact, Hitchcock is oblivious to a lot of things now a days. Being around so long has deteriorated his mind. And, Hitchcock isn't really.... all there anymore. He's chipper, upbeat, friendly. If he does remember what happened during the rebellion, which is rare and actually brings out the old Hitchcock, he forgets it very quickly and goes back to being kind old Hitchcock. Hitchcock can be serious and comforting to those who are down, offering a sympathetic ear. But, it doesn't hurt his heart as it did when the rebellion was reliably in his mind.Â
A few tidbits:
Hitchcock's eyes glow when they are predicting something.Â
Their hair used to be red.Â
Like all Arglwydd Amsers, Hitchcock is intersex
Gwendolyn hangs out at Hitchcock's diner a lot. They consider each other great friends. Gwendolyn is one of the few who doesn't ask Hitchcock to predict for him
Hitchcock's predictions tend to be vague
Hitchcock has a thing about blood. It isn't a phobia necessarily. But, looking at it.... Reminds him of something.Â
Only Boss and Gwendolyn know of Hitchcock's rebellious past. Gwendolyn found out on accident, and feels terrible that the Hitchcock that rebelled is lost to madness. And Boss.... Boss isn't allowed in the bar. Hitchcock gets very upset when he sees Boss. Though, he can never explain why, forgetting his anger very quickly.
Hitchcock is not exempt from the rule of not foreseeing events that involve himself. However, he doesn't really leave his bar very often, living in the upstairs part of the bar. If he were to meet someone fate wanted him to be with.... He wouldn't be able to see into that person's future. Which would fascinate him to no end, cause he's used to seeing the future.Â
Hitchcock really likes milkshakes, It's common for him to offer guests a milkshake if they're down.Â
