Asexual Awareness Week is here!! Time to celebrate each and every one of you wonderful aces <3 Thank you for being you! Enjoy!!

Introduction!

Plot: Snufkin goes on a journey with his aunt, Khaliah, who is Joxter’s older sister. Snufkin at the time was 4-5 years old and had never met his father so he was excited to finally meet him (she comes to visit the Mymble when the clan’s Seer informs Joxter he has a son). However, during the journey to where the Joxter was situated, the two are ambushed by a group of creatures who capture mumriks. They are taken to a camp with at least 100 odd mumrik, who are all trapped in cages or in a fighting area at the centre of the camp. It’s here Snufkin gets his harmonica from his aunt. They meet a man named Rahh, an old grey mountain mumrik (more info on types of mumrik will be posted with examples, tagged as #MumrikRaces). They spend about a week in this camp before Snufkin and Rahh escape, unfortunately, Kahliah dies while distracting the guards. Rahh carries Snufkin in a small wooden crate all the way to a beach. This is where Snufkin’s love of the sea starts because it reminds him of his survival and how precious life is. The two spend 2 days on the shore before they set off again towards where the Joxter is camped.

Once they arrive, Snufkin realises that Joxter is a member of a clan, one of the largest in the world. over 150 mumriks are in this clan and it’s always increasing, little by little. Rahh is greeted by Joxter after a few minutes of chatting between the clan leader Ekavir. Rahh hands of the crate Snufkin is inside and begins to explain how he believes Kahliah may be dead. after the news, Joxter is clearly upset but continues as he normally would. He takes Snufkin to meet his Wife Fauna and their one-year-old daughter, Aura. Snufkin spends 5 years with the clan as a full member, he gets close to the leader’s daughter Amala who is the same age as Snufkin. During his time in the clan, Fauna passes away while giving birth to a son named Joseph (this is 2 years after he arrives at the clan).

 Snufkin is now aged 9-10 years old, which in mumrik culture is when a mumrik is old enough to survive alone. He is best friends with the clan leader’s daughter, Amala. He is being bullied by an older mumrik boy named Baltek (he’s 11-12 years old). Baltek frames Snufkin for a crime and gets him banished from the clan.

Snufkin leaves and travels alone for a year before he meets Moomin! He meets Moomin the same way he does in the movie and series. The plot of the AU continues after these when they are all teenagers/young adults. 

New Characters:

Kahliah- middleaged forest mumrik, Snufkin’s aunt, butch lesbian gal, sweet as hell, deceased.

Rahh- Very old mountain mumrik, kind, wise, was a loner, has a single daughter in a faraway clan named Freya.

Amala- a natural born leader, confident, prideful, rational, calm, protective and brave.

Ekavir- Prideful but not in such a good way, stubborn, protective, brave and strong-headed.

Fauna- she was a forest mumrik, sweet and gentle, blind in her left eye, motherly, small but strong, knew card tricks. Deceased.

Aura- forest mumrik like her parents, Snufkin’s little sister, energetic, prankster, kind, fun, protective of her brothers.

Joseph- forest mumrik, Aura’s younger brother, lazy, steals food from people, sleeps anywhere, loves watching birds and collecting feathers.

Baltek- Prideful in the wrong way, arrogant, coward, lies a lot, picks fights with weaker and younger mumriks. He is a Swamp mumrik.

Netvi- mountain mumrik, old, wise, seer, spiritual, healer, kind, she was close to Snufkin and considered making him her apprentice.

Randell (name may change) aka The Mumrik Slaughterer- His guy is in charge of the creatures who capture mumriks and kill them. He’s cruel, malicious and evil. he is half mumrik but no one knows. He spreads lies saying that mumriks are monsters and will destroy peoples homes and are ruthless killers. None of those statements are true. 

There are also Spirits in this AU called elder guardians which are mumriks who would protect the land/earth when they were alive. now their ghosts help guide creatures who are lost, confused or need advice. It’s rare for one to appear.

Tawni- She is a tall forest elder guardian, she’s very motherly and speaks to Snufkin every now and then during his travels. Her aura is pale green. her hair and fur colour is dark tan.

Jasper- Short, strong, jovial, happy, loves to make people laugh, elder guardian, desert mumrik.

I woke up at 8 in the morning, just to see my dash filled with this GIF

I’m one of the people who freaked out by this.

Wow, just wow.

Moving on, I somehow noticed something on Snufkin.

His hand is on his shoulder,  showing some anxiety or something. And his face shows that he’s looking sad or hurt.

And Snufkin was sitting on a boat…

…which is what the ensemble cast used in Episode 2 - The Fire Spirit.

Scenarios

If the GIF happens at the beginning, then that scene is probably the one where Snufkin feels upset about a volcano erupting. Or perhaps, this is the scene where Moomintroll convinces Snufkin to come with them to the island. Looking at the episode picture itself, it looks like he feels reluctant, almost had the same facial expression from the GIF.

If it happens during or in the climax, and if we followed the Comet in Moominvalley storyline, he must have been also sad about the ocean disappearing because of the threat. It might be debunked because of that certain blue spot in the GIF. A possible worse case scenario was that Snufkin did something wrong (again), such as abandoning the Fire Spirit and he regretted it. So, Moomintroll cheers Snufkin up and the two searched for the Spirit. Snufkin must have done that because something within him feels uncomfortable and he just burst into anger, like what happened in The Spring Tune with Teety-woo. 

If the post happens at the ending of the episode, this is probably where Snufkin reflected on what he did in saving the Fire Spirit. For example, he actually missed the Spirit. I have a hunch that the volcano and the Fire Spirit is connected, the eruption happened when the Fire Spirit is separated from the volcano. Think of the “Chicken Little” movie. C.L stumbled upon a baby alien, then an alien invasion happened because of the said alien went missing. So it might happen the same thing, and it’s up to the cast to return the Fire Spirit where it belongs. Moomintroll comforts Snufkin and beckoned the vagabond to come with him in going home. Cue the GIF hand holding scene, then the end credits roll.  

I’m not entirely sure if this is episode 2 since the next eight episodes weren’t shown yet, but looking at the third episode, the hunch is strong.

Also, look back at Snufkin’s ending speech in Snufkin and the Park Keeper. 

“I almost start to enjoy the responsibility.”

The whole episode itself is like a contrast of his personality. A vagabond who likes freedom is (probably forced) to take responsibility such as taking care of the woodies. The Spring Tune has the part where he interacts with someone who not only admires him, but also reminded him of a certain friend… That somehow makes Snufkin uncomfortable since he’s not ‘ready’ to go back.

And in this episode, it’s now ‘saving moominvalley’ or some sort. Might be good for a character study of him.

XD i have no words for this 

Saw some people drawing Bog as a fairy instead of his usual goblin self, and I wanted to try!

Snufkin and Moomin be living their best traveler lives. Definitely think they’d both have little scars from their travels.

Also I head cannon the idea that Snufkin and Moomin would start traveling together during winter when they got together. Like Snufkin would be more willing to let Moomin travel with him but then either split up and meet in spring back in Moominvalley or in a set destination if he needed some place/time alone. Although if Moomin couldn’t go with him he’d still leave Moominvalley to travel alone so he wouldn’t have to hibernate.

probably should have drawn these bigger knowing I was gonna add colour to them lmao but here I am a big idiot ✌🏻

This crippled me, like omg I'm ready for death my life has be fulfilled! PLEZ I NEED MORE OF THIS SHIT ITS TOO CUTE FOR THE REAL WORLD!
