Fisherman Grian doesn't think much of it when there's more fish biting his line. Every day is a new day of course. He jokes with Scar and Gem that someone must be putting the fish on themselves, for this luck.

He offhandedly comments on how calm the waters have been recently. His boat barely rocks in the water anymore. He thanks the lake every time for it, to be polite.

Grian doesn't really notice that anything is strange until he tries out another body of water. His usual lake is great, but Gem told him about a smaller body of water down the river that feeds the lake that has a wonderful view. She was right, of course, it was beautiful, but that's when Grian notices how... unfriendly this area feels. The water laps harder at the sand and washes away Scars artworks. There's nary a bite to his fishing rod.

When he finally gives up and heads back to his lake, he feels compelled to apologize for leaving. Gem and Scar laugh at him when water splashes against a nearby rock and sprays his face.

When Scar and Gem are off elsewhere, collecting objects and tending to each other's fins, Grian just talks to the water. Tells it stories about himself and his friends. The water feels even calmer those days, as if it's listening.

When that big storm arrives suddenly and the Merfolk have to swim to the lake bottom to avoid debris,

well,

The water finally has the courage to speak back.

(I'll continue with more involving Scar and gem later :])

OUGHH I LOVE THIS. YES.

AU where SWK and Mac share a body but like, different

During the day he's Wukong, the Monkey King, MK's teacher, but the moment the sun disappears from the sky he's Liu'er Mihou, the Six Eared Macaque, a king's shadow

During the daytime, Macaque (or his essence? Idk how to explain it) appears as SWK's shadow. He can't leave SWK's side, but he can control other shadows and stretch himself enough to cover up a whole room. He can still make shadow clones of himself to resemble a physical body, but he can't posses them so it's useless anyway (unless it's for fighting or stuff like that). He's never wanted his own body anyway

When it's night, Sun Wukong appears as all the light surrounding Macaque. Be it a lamppost, a phone, a fire, or even the glow of the moon, you name it. All of that is him. If he really wants to, though, he can show up as some kind of ghost, like when he's doing that whole Astral Projection thingy, but more cloud-looking. If you pay enough attention, you can sometimes see something that looks like a golden cloud surrounding Macaque's body

They can tell what the other is feeling and thinking all the time. It's not overwhelming or anything, it's just how things have always been. When they "talk" they don't do it with words, they just always know what the other wants to communicate

#this isn't a “oh they got cursed to share a body” type of au #it's more like. they were always that way #there isn't a time where the king didn't have a shadow #stories talk about how swk's shadow was as powerful as him but they don't talk about it like the shadow is a living being #so the whole sharing a body thing is kind of a secret #except that they don't care about it and are willing to share this w pretty much anyone if asked #lmk #lego monkie kid #sun wukong #the six eared macaque #the monkey king #liu'er mihou #shadowpeach #you can see it that way or not btw. personally i see them as more like uhh. qpr? #i need a name for this au #maybe eclipsed star? #yeah that sounds right #eclipsed star au #i hope that's not already an au lol

I have a question about Solar x Moon. Wouldn’t they technically be adoptive siblings since Solar is part of their family now? Just curious is all since I saw someone point it out.

I have no idea.

They're robots.

Technically, Solar spawned from Sun and Moon from another dimension, so that would be their son.

Even Earth said he would technically be their nephew, which Solar and Earth agreed was both weird for them.

Which Solar denied and didn't want to be viewed that way.

He only called himself "the gay cousin" cause Earth insisted on putting him on the family tree in the first place.

I think in the latest LAES episode (idk I haven't watched it) Lunar basically said: "a puesdo-brother? idk what he is to us."

I'm not saying that Solar isn't a member of the family. He is welcome here and this is his new home now, and his relationship with each member of the Celestial Family differs.

I feel giving traditional titles in found family units kinda defeats the purpose of a found family unit in the first place. Especially given that they are all robots.

for this au I'm thinking reverse love square, but Luka instead of Adrien

Luka walks his sister to school (coz he's a good big brother and she's nervous about her first day), he bumps into Marinette - now, he's already heard about Marinette from his sister but he's never actually met her before

He actually physically bumps into Marinette, or she does to him coz heck our girl lacks spatial awareness, and she falls but he catches her, and she doesn't feel anything but embarrassment but he, oh Luka, Luka is blushing, just a little bit coz wow, she's just got the prettiest freckles

and he's all up in her face so he leans back and helps her upright because he was practically dipping her and he let's go of her waist and Juleka mumbles 'Hi, Marinette'

so this is Marinette

she says hi back and introduces herself, 'oh you must be Juleka's older brother, Luka', Juleka mumbles smth about twins but Luka's not paying attention to her anymore, he's looking at Marinette and thinking about all the good things Jules has had to say about her in the past and how pretty she is, our boy is swooning so hard, he forgot to reply back before the warning bell has rung signalling to students class is starting soon

he says a quick rushed 'bye, you'll do great, I'll be here to pick you up' to Juleka and a quick smile to Marinette before he pushes the girls towards their classrooms and rushes out himself (this all takes place after the incident (test) with Master Fu)

This is Luka crushing on Marinette, then you have Marinette crushing on Scarlet Bug

because this strong, hunk of a guy, beautiful man is now her partner against crime (which she didn't sign up for !! but she'll do what she needs to do for the people of Paris) and at one point she gets flung across the block and lands in the beefy arms of a boy with gorgeous blue eyes

cue Marinette getting extremely nervous and stutter-y around him coz damn, she's falling

the fight goes so and so but it passes pretty quick, it was a bit difficult for Luka coz his partner would trip sometimes and wouldn't look him in the eyes but he just put it down to first time jitters, he was deffo feeling them too

they don't, however, purify the Akuma and so they're back at the fight a little over an hour later but now with a new addition to their already new team, Adrian !! (referring to Dog Miraculous!Adrien as Adrian coz I don't like Flairmidable, and Adrian is apparently a common name for dogs so hush)

Adrien is gay, he's known since he was a kid, women never crossed his mind - so when he lays eyes on the gorgeous gorgeous black and red haired (because I say so !!) boy that he is now meant to fight these so-called Akumas with, can you really blame him for falling in love?

So Adrien being Adrien starts flirting with this boy, non-stop, and it's not like he tells him to stop, no !! The boy, ScarletBug he introduced himself as, flirts back !! he indulges in Adrian's advances which springs a little hope in his heart, but also makes a certain Kitty mad

This wretched dog, just showed up out of no where! and is stealing her man!!

She gets so mad, she forgets to be nervous around Scarlet and here marks the start of a beautiful rivalry between Chien and Chat (maybe I'll have a play with the word chein for Adrien's superhero name)

This leads to them defeating the Akuma rather quickly and skillfully, bringing all surrounding citizens to awe as they watch this trio of Superheroes who work so well together and at the end, after Scarlet has purified the Akuma and Miraculous ScarletBug'd all the damage away, he extends both of his fists to new partners

the first 'Pound it' of many, even if this time Kitty and Adrian didn't do it to each other (they both have eyes only for Scarlet, they don't even take notice of each other)

until he bounds away that is, saying how he's about to transform and needs to hurry home and he rushes a quick goodbye and salute to them both before leaving

then the two left on the Eiffel finally take notice of each other's presence, glaring at each other with pouts on their faces and crossed arms

'Back off, dumb dog'

'He's mine, stupid cat'

'I saw him first!'

'I talked to him first!'

cue more glaring, growling and hissing until their ring/choker (omg I forgot the dog miraculous is basically a collar) beeps and reminds them they need to hurry back to class

so with a hmph from both kids, they hop down from the Eiffel and head off to detransform

In love with your monster under the bed! Eddie au, would love to read any more snippets you’d write!! (Especially of Eddie being protective of Steve against other monsters, his parents etc)

thank you SO MUCH omg im definitely gonna expand on this universe, since so many people liked it. here's a bit just for you!

Steve was too old to believe in monsters under the bed. According to his mom the next morning, he was never allowed to wake her up just because he thought he saw something or heard something.

Steve thought of his new friend under his bed and hid his smile. "I understand, Mom. I won't do it again."

"Good. Go play." She waved him off dismissively.

Tommy scoffed when Steve brought up the idea of monsters under the bed. "Are you three years old? Monsters aren't real."

Steve thought of Eddie, slinking around his room, showing off his monster powers.

How much to maybe share a lil bit bout your new au? 👀 *Sliding a monopoly bill across the table*

*slowly taking the monopoly bill from you*

well y’see. I propose: ex-villain grian who is rescued by hotguy and becomes his sidekick to repay him for his help <3

the public hates him, they’re afraid of him due to his previous villain activities. scar fully believes he can become a hero, but grian has Many insecurities about it and the public perception of him doesn’t help at All

hotguy has a Ginormous crush on cuteguy, while grian, who works as a professor at the same university as scar, has a Very big crush on his coworker

>:D

While Yrz was working he didn’t allow photos or videos. He came on scene before tech was widespread in hell so it was way easier then. He did dance and private shows and other services if the pay was good enough but he couldn’t be recorded without his permission (something something Yrz is focused on information, something to do with his powers maybe??).

I think Val is one of the only people to have one of yrzs photos. It’s just a tasteful nude taken after they slept together, where Yrzs bits are covered by his big fluffy tail and his hair (kept long for performing) is a mess. it was just before Yrz quit entirely so he let Val keep it. Val keeps this photo under lock and key. Vox and velvettte are the only people who know he has it.

The Barkimedes Isekai AU continues

I HAVEN'T WATCHED THE NEWER EPISODES YET BUT I WANT MORE BARKIMEDES CONTENT

Honestly, I have SO MANY IDEAS ABOUT THIS AU but I've been busy and kept forgetting to draw them so here's this for now

I couldn't decide if he would either be utterly terrified at G1 Romulus or be chill with him. Knowing him it would definitely be the second one but to be fr Romulus would be intimidating as hell (DUDE LOOKS 30 AT A HIGH SCHOOL).

Though with Howleen, definitely would become friends with her no doubt. Probably the most familiar face to him and probably teaches her to skateboard.

whoo! okay finally had a moment to sit down and draw them out. here's shinsou and izuku for a new shindeku au of mine with quirkless emt/vigilante izuku and pro hero shinsou. i'll probably have a lot more to say about this au later (and more art) but basically they meet when izuku is a first responder to one of the villain fights shinsou is involed in and shinsou later realizes the vigilante who just saved his ass and is administering first aid seems oddly familiar. hijinks, meeting the parents, gratuitous fluff, hurt/comfort, and much more ensues.

ask me about it ;3c

Baby Sam who freaks his teachers out by talking to himself when he thinks no one can hear him but is bright enough to catch every mistake made in math and science class. Baby Sam who’s kind of awkward and overly formal but ends up with a little band of other outcasts following him in every school. Baby Sam who ends up with an uncannily good poker face from having to pretend he can’t constantly see and hear Lucifer beside him. Baby Sam who knows things about people he has to no right to.

Baby Sam who starts making successful escape attempts long before he should even know he needs to.
