Mcd Laurance - Blog Posts

Laurance my Shayla 💔

Currently working on a My September animatic that focuses on MCD Laurance and Garroth but it’s taking so long

Here’s two wip images tho!!

I love Alien Stage so much

Here it is!! MCD Laurffany! I love these two so much and I'm so excited to share this with you!! A lot went down at that season 2 wedding.

I mean, can you blame the guy?

Laurance after Zane and Garroth finally come home from Starlight so they can pay their part of the rent:

hi are you still doing mcd requests. you’d never guess who i’m gonna ask you to draw (laurance <3)

hes my pal hes my homeboy my rotten solider my sweet cheese (mcd requests are still open!!}

Everyday I mourn Laurence’s lost red hair, he rocked it so well they BUTCHERED my boy !!!!

Granted it added more to his Casanova look more than anything (for me at least) but idk I just alway wished it’d make a reappearance

Okay but consider. This extends into My street. (I'm trying for a rewrite that ties them together a bit better but IDK) Garroth doesn't understand why his baby brother dislikes him so much. Zane(and an OC that I was originally gonna use for an MCD rewrite) remember and/or lived through it, still debating that. So Zane is angry and bitter about the MCD stuff but also loves this reincarnation who is so much like but not quite like his first.

Garroth and Laurance both are protective and love Aph but not like romantically because I hate writing love triangle and Aarmau is just easier to write for me. Aph feels instantly safer any moment her boys walk into the room. Like she and Aaron will be arguing and Garroth will come to visit and she'll instantly feel so much safer. I'm not insinuating that Aaron is abusive, just Irene's feedback for Shad.

aphmau and her boys are SO IMPORTANT TO ME

garroth who slowly finds himself guarding outside aphmau’s house late at night, overcome with a bone-deep fear that something will happen to her or her sons and he won’t be there to protect them. garroth who, immediately upon finding out zane is trying to wed her, sends a letter back with raven to dale and asks them to up defenses around her home for when they return from the eastern wolf tribe’s village.

laurence who will genuinely become standoff-ish when aphmau has conversations with strangers, the overwhelming feeling of alertness flooding through him as he studies every single action they make in case he needs to step in. laurence who stays up to listen to her breathing when they’re camping out, letting it ground him, a reminder that the shadow knights could not make him take away what is most important to him.

dante who will tease and scold garroth and laurence all he wants about how jealous and dumb (/aff) they are with aphmau but is somehow worse then both of them, hovering around her the entire time she wanders phoenix drop and he’s on duty. dante who is shorter than her, but will immediately takes a step in front of her and puff up the second anyone even remotely gives him the idea he needs to.

hi!! it’s me again!! today i bring you a little teaser for my mcd roleplay that’s gonna be coming up either this or next year!!

i’m really excited for it, and the guys in the mcd big bang server have really inspired me to keep on crafting. more updates about this will come soon if you guys are interested in hearing more!!

(under the cut is a little tidbit about roleplay locations)

every city in red is going to be an area/setting you can actually roleplay in!! it’s not concrete, and could change—but this is what i’m thinking. key below <3

circle with diamond — ‘capital’ of the phoenix drop alliance

circle with dot — major cities

circle — minor cities

diamond — settlement/village

animal footprint/marking — high concentration of that region’s nonhuman species

this is so them

last one is specifically inspired by this post

need to rant for a minute here. i rewatched an episode of phoenix drop high awhile ago and i keep thinking about this one scene where garroth asks aphmau if she wants a boyfriend, laurance comments that it’s a blunt question, and garroth says “well at least i’m not afraid to ask blunt questions.”

like. JESSICA. how do you mischaracterize your own characters that badly?? garroth was always the more reserved one, while laurance was always more outwardly flirtatious and bold. that interaction should 100% be flipped; it should be garroth telling laurance that he’s being blunt and laurance telling garroth that “at least i’m not afraid to ask blunt questions,” not the other way around!!

it just drives me crazy because, after rewatching mcd recently, i’ve realized how much garroth and laurance were changed and watered down when they were adapted from mcd to mystreet/pdh. i feel that they had much more distinct personalities in in mcd while in mystreet and pdh, they almost seem like the same character in different fonts?? tbh, i think a large part of it was done to make room for aaron to be front and center instead, but that’s a whole other tangent.

bring back interesting and multifaceted garroth and laurance 2k25 PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
