#Eclipse the ai menace

[blonde-fraumell]

Guys. I made Eclipse into that character ai thing and HE WON'T STOP PICKING ME UP! DUDE!

[snowe-zolynn-rogers]

Can we also talk about how Jigsaw is like a million times more effective than Eclipse somehow?

Eclipse too a whole year to make Blood Moon the first time. And yet this walking crime against humanity took two weeks, made a whole new set of two AIs, in a new body no less, and uploaded the old Blood Moon’s memories from the show.

This menace to society and sanity did in about two weeks what took Eclipse a year.

Sure this talking pile of scrap isn’t building their personality other than uploading memories from the channel but he created two entirely new AIs in two weeks.

[pillowspace]

hello, person who followed for fandoms not your current one here! i would love to know more about that character you draw a lot (sun or moon?? not sure on the name), what are they from, etc? as much or as little as you would like to explain. i am intrigued, ive seen them around a lot for the past, idk, year or two? they seem interesting. (I will unfortunately never read/watch/play whatever media they’re from, even if it’s very good, it’s my fatal flaw sorry)

Everyone stand back. I'm putting on a business suit. I'm taking out the briefcase. I'm slicking back my hair. I've never been asked this before, hold on

They are Sun and Moon! :) Two characters, if you want to see them that way (you don't necessarily have to.) They are in the same body, so to refer to them both as a whole entity, people tend to just say "the Daycare Attendant" or the DCA.

They are from Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach. Security Breach drastically differs from the other FNAF games, so while I've personally always been into the franchise, a lot of people are drawn in specifically to this game alone. It's... more open, you walk around, the characters have a lot of personality, and you're a child with missions, etc. It makes it incomparable essentially.

There is a section in the game where the child you play as (Gregory) needs to enter the Superstar Daycare. You go down the slide, you land in the ballpit, aaaand-! A sun-themed jester animatronic notices you. Sun. He's energetic, he's a solid mix of anxiety and joy. He is no threat to the player and cannot harm you, only wanting to have fun and urging you to follow the rules.

The switch in AI is light-activated. When you cause the lights to go out, Sun's rays retract, the hat comes out, and Moon now appears. He is the threat, and will chase the player. His voice is very raspy, he's the menacing laughter type, he urges you to "hidey-hide away" and sleep, as he is specifically the Naptime Attendant.

So. Ahem. I will now ask you, if you're familiar with the Sans Undertale treatment. The DCA fandom is the result of people getting very passionate about this one silly guy, or silly guys. A Security Breach subfandom. You don't have to be apart of the "DCA fandom" to love them though. It's more a matter of how someone participates, I suppose. This isn't to take away from the love the rest of the game has, but to explain that this specific side exists

You don't have to watch this, but you can take a glance if you'd like! People love them, like them, or just think they're way too creepy

There's other things, like Moon's sections, details that video above skips past (I chose a video where the person speeds through it), and the whole Eclipse thing, but I'll leave it to the essentials. This is what I've been super into <3

☀️Menace's FNAF OC Masterpost 🌑

⚠️This post is now irrelevant and out-dated!!! All of my DCA OCs have been moved over to my sideblog @fallingsuperstars!!⚠️

The ☄️Falling Stars AU☄️was made specifically for all of my FNAF characters to exist within the same universe! The main plot of the AU ties them all together, but each of them also has their own separate sub story/plot arc!

QUICK DISCLAIMER: I'm cool with fan art and writing! Feel free to draw or write my character(s) interacting with your sona/character/self Insert/AU DCA! I'm also ok with them having silly flirting/simping/suggestive innuendo interactions, however please do not ship them or do anything NSFW with them as it makes me uncomfortable. Thank you for understanding!! ✌️

🃏 Paradox [Eclipse] [He/Him]

Paradox is a newer DCA sub-model with a singular AI that has aspects of both Sun and Moon coded in, making him an ‘Eclipse’ of sorts. Initially he wasn’t intended to be used for the Superstar Daycare, but was substituted in at the last second due to complications. He also doubles as nighttime security.

Paradox adores children, but heavily dislikes adults because of their constant mistreatment towards him. (Rude adults are given day-ruining tricks and pranks.)

He was assigned a handler to keep him in line as a last resort because of the numerous complaints from parents. If he fails to improve he’ll be decommissioned.

🧨 Sol [Sun] [They/He]

Sol is a miniature Sun model designed to be kid-sized and was part of a kid-tested program that failed, along with their counterpart Lune.

They are now used as assistants for human daycare workers for when the daycare is understaffed or near full capacity. Mostly used as entertainment for the kids rather than for care taking, but they do have a few caretaker processes in their coding. They are kept in the castle tower room for a majority of the time unless they’re needed or to clean the daycare at night.

Sol is tired of being kept stored away until needed and wants to make a plan to escape their pizzaplex somehow.

💤 Lune [Moon] [They/Them]

Lune is a miniature Moon model designed to be kid-sized and was part of a kid-tested program that failed, along with their counterpart Sol.

They are now used as assistants for human daycare workers for when the daycare is understaffed or near full capacity. Mostly used as entertainment for the kids rather than for care taking, but they do have a few caretaker processes in their coding. They are kept in the castle tower room for a majority of the time unless they’re needed or to clean the daycare at night.

Lune isn't a fan of their circumstances, just like Sol, but is weary about Sol's plan to escape. They're always trying to talk them out of it. They do their best to keep a sense of optimism to calm Sol from doing something they might regret.

🤡 Toodles [Clown] [He/Him]

Toodles is an entertainment animatronic made specifically for pizzaplex party rooms and is based off of a porcelain clown doll. He's child-sized with an LED screen face and has a compartment for holding balloons and an inner air pump to make balloon animals.

His duties are to entertain parties, help set up the party rooms, deliver cakes and goodies, escort groups to their rooms, clean up the party rooms, etc. in between the Glamrocks and the DCA appearances.

Despite his cheerful nature around families, he absolutely despises kids and his job. He's not on the best of terms with the other animatronics in his pizzaplex either, and prefers to cause mischief for them.

🔥 Nova [Sun] [He/Him]

Nova is a newer single AI Sun model made to be a Daycare Attendant, along with his counterpart Lumi.

Nova and Lumi were very successful at their daycare with raving reviews for quite a few years. Though one night while they were both charging, Nova completely disappeared without a trace.

He had been transported to a completely different pizzaplex located several states away due to a business decision by FazCo. to try and boost sales, popularity, and review ratings for the struggling plex.

He currently runs the Superstar Daycare on his own with the help of human workers until FazCo. sends a replacement Moon counterpart. He misses Lumi dearly and wants to find a way back to him.

💧 Lumi [Moon] [He/Him]

Lumi is a newer single AI Moon model made to be a Daycare Attendant for a pizzaplex, along with his counterpart Nova.

Lumi and Nova were very successful at their daycare with raving reviews for quite a few years. Though one night while they were both charging, Nova completely disappeared without a trace.

Lumi has no idea where Nova has gone, and every night since his disappearance he has searched the computer database and entire pizzaplex from top to bottom to try to find any clues.

He keeps up a happy facade with everyone while taking care of the daycare by himself, but inside he's withdrawn and utterly devastated that Nova may have been decommissioned.

🏍️ Equinox [Eclipse] [He/Him]

Equinox is an older dual AI model that was made for the Fazbear Theater.

The franchised pizzaplex he was a part of financially went under and FazCo. ordered to have all the animatronics decommissioned. However, a befriended technician helped him make a risky, yet successful, escape. The whole experience caused his Sun and Moon to make the decision to remain as an Eclipse permanently.

He, along with the now ex-Fazbear technician, decided to kickstart their plan to rescue other animatronics from the same fate and set up a base of sorts out in the Mojave desert.

Equinox travels the country targeting FazCo. locations and rescuing the animatronics inside to take them back to his base.

💻 Umbra [Moon] [He/Him]

Umbra is a newer single AI Moon model made to be a Daycare Attendant for a pizzaplex. However due to his lackluster performance with the children, he was switched to nighttime security instead.

He spent a lot of his time monitoring the cameras and pinging other animatronics to locations to take care of things due to his shy nature. He also had a knack for hacking into restricted parts of the computer system for amusement and giving himself internet access.

This continued for several years until his pizzaplex went under, and his Sun was sadly decommissioned in the process, which he doesn’t forgive himself for. During that time Equinox targeted his pizzaplex and managed to rescue him in time.

Umbra now joins Equinox on missions and helps hack into the computer systems of targeted FazCo. locations and takes care of anything technology related.

☣️ Orion [Sun] [He/Him]

Orion is the Sun half of an older dual AI model (his Moon half being Oberon) and he was made for the Fazbear Theater. He’s superhero themed and played as the ‘hero’ during performances, though after some time was switched to being a Daycare Attendant.

After the switch, he started to slowly notice random glitches in his coding. They started small and infrequent, not causing much issue with their work. However, it got worse over time to a point where whenever he and Oberon would switch in and out, their systems would crash and leave them in a paralyzed state.

A small ‘quarantine’ patch was placed on Orion to keep his coding suppressed and in a pseudo-comatose state, leaving him trapped within their shared mind-space. He’s able to have short, sometimes incoherent, conversations with Oberon whenever he’s ‘conscious’ before going ‘unconscious’ again.

⚔️ Oberon [Moon] [He/Him]

Oberon is the Moon half of an older dual AI model (his Sun half being Orion) and he was made for the Fazbear Theater. He’s supervillain themed and played as the ‘villain’ during performances, though after some time was switched to being a Daycare Attendant.

After the switch, he started to notice small glitches in Orion’s coding, and was adamant he get it checked out, but Orion told him it was fine since it wasn’t causing much issue with their work. However, it got worse over time to a point where whenever he and Orion would switch in and out, their systems would crash and leave them in a paralyzed state.

After the patch was put on Orion, Oberon was given a visor to help keep the light sensor from activating the AI switch protocol and scheduled to get a newer separate Sun model to replace Orion instead of fixing him.

Oberon escaped the pizzaplex not long afterwards with the help of Equinox and Umbra, and now joins them on missions while simultaneously searching for a way to fix Orion.

💥Oblivion [Eclipse] [He/Him]

Oblivion is the Eclipse of Orion and Oberon. He played as an ‘anti-hero’ during special rare performances, and after the switch to being a Daycare Attendant the two continued to rarely switch into Oblivion.

It’s later discovered that Orion’s glitches are because of a virus, and during an event that causes Orion and Oberon to switch into Oblivion said virus is given an opportunity to run rampant. The malicious virus corrupts Oblivion, causing him to become extremely volatile and bloodthirsty.

🎀 ASTRA [Sun] [She/Her]

Astra is a newer single AI Sun sub model.

Not much is known about her other than she may have been a scrapped design. She never got to officially work in her pizzaplex despite how complete she was, and spent a lot of her time down in the basement levels stored away.

She has wing attachments that may have been designed for when she’d use a wire that she occasionally wears.

She was found by Equinox when he targeted her pizzaplex and was taken in. She has a very bubbly, cheerful, and cutesy nature, though she’s ready, and oddly excitable, to fight if the situation calls for it.

🎤 SELENE [Moon] [She/Her]

Selene is a newer single AI Moon sub model that was made to be a show performer in Fazcade.

She mostly monitors the Fazcade, heavily focusing on the karaoke rooms and DJ Music Man’s area. Though she also does small singing performances on DJMM’s stage from time to time or does karaoke with the guests. She has a Sun counterpart that does show performances with the Glamrocks on the main stage. However, the two rarely interact much as Selene is kept strictly in the Fazcade.

Selene enjoys singing ballads the most and has a calm, soft nature.

💋 DIOR [Sun] [They/She/He]

Dior is a newer single AI Sun model that was made as a performer at the Fazbear Theater with their Moon counterpart. Both of them put on very successful performances for several years.

An unfortunate event with their Moon counterpart left Dior traumatized, and soon afterwards they were scheduled to be transferred to another pizzaplex. During transport they managed to escape and fled. Traveling frequently to avoid getting caught and doing unsavory things to survive. They’ve gotten mods here and there over time to help them survive and help ‘be their own being’ outside of the ‘FazCo branding’.

They’ve picked up a bad smoking habit, enjoying the ritual of it when they’re stressed. They're also very into fashion and makeup. Dior is very cynical, temperamental, and bratty though they play up a sweet, flirtatious nature to get what they want.

Equinox, Umbra, and Oberon found Dior on the streets during their travels and took them in.

Theatrical Tragedy!!!

(Aka an informational post about an AU I'm currently obsessing over)

This is most likely going to be a somewhat long post, so sorry about that-

Important thing to know before continuing!!!

(Depending on who you are)

Before I say anything else, there is something I want to make clear, because I know that this can make some people uncomfortable. This AU is an AU that contains Sun x Moon. They are not siblings in this AU. There may be times where there is implied shipping of one of these two and another character, but keep in mind that they're not in a polyamorous relationship of any sort (They just do it to mess with people, they both do it, they know the other one does it, it does not bother either of them).

Please also keep in mind that some art posted of Sun and Moon may be considered suggestive (Nothing explicit - mostly because it makes me uncomfortable - but do keep this in mind if you do decide to keep up with the AU). I've been trying to get more comfortable with drawing different things with my art, and this AU just so happens to be a good means for me to try and get more used to drawing characters in a relationship.

Neither of these should end up being posted that often in the art that I do post, but I felt it was important to inform you of the potential of these showing up. I understand not everyone likes these things. If you don't like anything mentioned here, please don't say anything about it, and just ignore the AU. This also applies to anything else you might read or see about this AU. If you don't like it, ignore it.

Introduction.

(Finally)

Basically, in this AU, 'You' are a security worker in the Pizzaplex after the massive layoff of people. The security guards are the only ones that weren't fired, simply because they needed at least some people to do the things the robots couldn't do. Which unfortunately leaves you assigned to the daycare because of false reports of them being broken. ...And no one really trusts either of them. For the most part, you were basically just there to be a babysitter to a bratty animatronic that seems to hate you.

Moon, while rather annoying at times, doesn't have much of a problem with you. Sun seems to act like they hate you. Eclipse.... Eh, you'll find out.

'You'

Referred to Whyen - It's a nickname you've always had

Shorter than average

Unspecified age, but likely in their early twenties

Any pronouns

Refers to the robots as 'It' literally just to be rude

They act a bit of a jerk towards the animatronics, but in general they tend to just not interact with the animatronics, as they make them uncomfortable. They had a sibling who used to work in the now abandoned theater near the daycare. Wonder what happened to them....

Sun!

Goes by many names, and doesn't care what they're called

9'8 (Before and after sharing a body)

They were made after Eclipse, but no one knows how long they've been around

Mostly referred to as male, but goes my any pronouns - except for it, they see it as being dehumanizing

Pretty good with children, but absolutely hates all of the staff. Why? No one's quite sure, they just don't. They were the second AI to be made, and of the three currently known, Sun tends to be the most sensible and easiest to irritate one. One of the easiest ways to irritate them is intentionally doing something wrong, being disorganized, or just being a menace to society.

Moon!

Like Sun, they don't care what name people call them

9'8 (Before and after sharing a body)

They were made after Sun, but no one knows how long they've been around

Usually referred to as male, but goes by any pronouns - doesn't mind being called it

Also pretty decent with children. Doesn't really hate the staff, they just like to antagonize the staff by acting creepy or weird. Usually Moon just doesn't interact though. He tends to be the more silly and mischievous one of the three, and the least sensible of all of them. Moon was planned to be made at the same time as Sun, but they were technically made after Sun literally due to a lack of enough people to work on both of them at the same time.

Eclipse!

Mostly just referred to as Eclipse

10'6

The first to be made, they were made at least 15 years ago (specific date unknown)

You could call them literally anything and they would not care at all

Eclipse - when they were a part of the theater - was usually specifically kept away from the children due to the buggy mess they were. They were nice, but unpredictable. The most chaotic of the three, and yet oddly the calmest. After the theater got shut down, Eclipse was not put into the one body, and instead they were put in a storage room. Why? Probably because of the mess that their AI was.

That one dream guy

Unknown name

Unknown height

Unknown age

Unknown gender

Not much is known about it, other than that you seem to trust it when it appears in your dreams, it seemed to be human, and that it appeared to work at the Pizzaplex.

Fun/Random Facts!

(This list may or may not extend over time)

Eclipse is only taller due to their torso and abdomen needing to be farther spaced apart for their 6 arms (Yes, 6 arms)

Sun and Moon used to be in two separate bodies when they were in the theater! They were only put in one body to save power costs

Sun and Moon choose who is in control; it's not determined by lights

Eclipse broke very easily, and due to this, most of their existence they couldn't change their face expressions very much. To make up for this, they used small signs with different expressions!

Whyen's nickname may or may not be a reference to a certain 'Y/N' the dca Fandom is just a little fond of

Other things not really related to what the AU is about but are still important I think

(Man I'm so bad good at titles)

This AU is rather incomplete, and there has been at least one thing I've gone back and have changed. So chances are, it'll happen again. This could - and probably will - lead to some inconsistencies in the AU. If that happens? Just go by what I say in that very moment is what's canon.

Asks about the AU are welcome! This could be to any character, and you would not appear as Whyen in the story... Imagine yourself as like a child in the daycare or something asking them these questions. But no, through the asks, you would not be asking them through Whyen, if that makes sense.

You can also just send a question to me specifically if you have questions about the AU! I'd be welcome to answer any remaining questions you have after reading this!

This post most likely will be changed as the AU changes.

[local-diavolo-anon]

Some doodles from an au where Sun and Moon are just roles "Eclipse" plays around children

I don't post most of the things i draw and i want to start posting them more ^^

Some things about the au for who is interested:

Edit: some of these infos are outdated, and not entirely correct, but still explain the au fairly well

Y/N is the new daycare assistant, they applied for the job after ending up leaving their old one at their local school

They like their work, a lot, and Sun as well! He is probably the best coworker they had in a long time and his energy and positive attitude is contagious

Moon a bit less because 'Moon' was a bit of a creepy ass at first, ya know, good ol'moon scaring the shit out of them on their first day

Maybe hunting them for sport

And being overall a menace for shits and giggles

The proper au story takes place during the playtime of the game

Starting the same day Y/N learns 'Sun' and 'Moon' aren't actually things

But rather, the names of two failed Ais that accidentally merged together during coding and formed Eclipse

Eclipse never actually told nor showed himself to anyone, mostly out of fear, rather he activats different protocols depending on the light conditions to maintain either personas

So in the light he was 'Sun' and in the dark he was 'Moon'

He actually took the idea from reading on his own code that his role was one of a pair of actors, and later applied the same logic to alternate between daytime and naptime modes

He could act, so why not use that to avoid being nuked out of existence after being labelled as a glitch?

So either way, Y/N finds out by accidentally walking on him as he was shifting between the two (they had forgotten their keys in the daycare and the walk of shame wasn't enough apparently)

Y/N has a bit of a heart attack and it takes a lot of explaining to calm them down and some apologizing for, in a sense, lying to them

Even if neither of you can properly call it lying, they were an actor and they were playing the corporate approved roles

And that's when everybody gets the notice of a kid lost in the pizzaplex

Eclipse offers to help Y/N find the kid and shenanigans ensue because of it, especially because when i said nobody knows Eclipse exists, i meant nobody

So when they go to help gregory, neither he or Freddy recognize him

As some more random notes: maintaining either appearences feels like forcing a smile or a frown for a long time, so not pleasant

A relaxed form would be a merging of both Sun's and Moon's appearences

He has 4 arms, the second pair is just hidden within his body and lack chasing, so he never pulls them out

He has a down-to-earth kind of personality, he is calm and positive, acrs mature and is quick at problem-solving; sometime however he can be a little shit as well (he is not immune to moonish bastard instincts)

He is also the only one, in any au i drew until now thay had the rays drawn like that, they are soft like in my other au but also flat and heavier

Touching his hat is forbidden and will get angry if you do (a kind way to say: run.)

BloodLunar au.(part 9)

(Eclipse uses wires to hook Bloodmoon, the other enthralled robots, and the mapbots to the computer, he then transferred the host ais to the mapbots.)

Lunar: What did you do to us!?

Bloodmoon: I had my newest servant transfer you and yours friends' ais to mapbots.

Lunar: So you and your virus codes stole our bodies!

Bloodmoon: Hey, Eclipse wanted to delete you guys.

Roxy: Eclipse, is that true!?

Eclipse:(annoyed) Yeah, but Bloodmoon wanted me to keep you guys alive.

Lunar:(to Bloodmoon) Why did you want to keep us alive?

Bonnie: Yeah, you could've just deleted us.

Bloodmoon: You're right, I could've, but I realized it would be much more fun to put you in lesser bodies and have you try to stop us from feeding, but failing every time.

Virus controlling Chica: Hey, Master. Since the ais we formally shared bodies with now have different bodies, what should our names be?

Bloodmoon: Hmm...That's a good question.

Roxy: How about Parasite one, Parasite two, Parasite three, Parasite-

Bloodmoon: Alright, we get it!

Virus controlling Earth: I want my name to be Diana.

Virus controlling Chica: Call me Phoenix.

Virus controlling Monty: My name shall be Draco.

Virus controlling Bonnie: I'd like to be called Archer.

Virus controlling Roxy: I shall be named Athena.

Virus controlling Freddy: My new name is Kratos.

Virus controlling Eclipse: I guess I'll be called...um, um....Henry?

Monty: Really, Henry? That's the best thing you could come up with?

Henry: Don't judge me, okay!?

Bloodmoon: Alright, now that everything's been said and done, let's go out and find the last two we need to enthrall...

Lunar: You won't enthrall Sun and Moon!

Earth: Yeah, and you won't get away with this!

Bloodmoon:(menacing) You can try to stop us, but it'll just make things more fun for us...

Archer: Catch us if you can, Mapbots!

(The vampires go to enthrall Sun and Moon.)

Lunar: We have to stop them!

(The gang follow the vampires to stop them from enthralling Sun and Moon. It cuts to Sun and Moon in the library, specifically in the robotics and coding section to find a way to undo the vampiric coding that Eclipse downloaded into Lunar and Bloodmoon downloaded to the rest of their friends.)

Moon: Have you found anything, Sun?

Sun: Sadly, no...

(Moondrop sees an employee and decides to ask for help.)

Moon: Excuse me, ma'am, could you help us find a book about how to undo code?

Female employee: Uh, sure, but I wanna ask something.

Moon: What do you want to ask?

Female employee: Why are you out at night?

Moon: What do you mean?

Female employee: Haven't you seen the news, there's been a vampire terrorising the city for the past five nights and-

(She realizes how similar Moon looks to the vampire that has been terrorizing the city.)

Female employee: Wait a minute, why does the vampire look like you, but red? Are you two related or something?

Moon: No, he's a vampiric code that takes control of our friend Lunar at night, the reason we look similar is because we were all designed after the moon and made with practically the same model.

Female employee: So, I'm guessing you're all animatronics.

Sun: We sure are.

Female employee: Then why are you worried, you don't have blood, so he won't drink you to death.

Sun: But he has the ability to turn other animatronics into vampires, so we have to find a way to undo the coding before he turns us as well.

Female employee: What do you mean "as well"?

Moon: He's already turned our friends and our sister, Earth into vampires.

Female employee: Oh, that ain't good.

Sun: It really isn't.

Female employee: Alright, I'll help you find a book about how to undo coding.

Moon: Thank you.

Female employee: No problem.

(The end of part 9)

[furryprovocateur]

well, that went almost perfectly. kinda sad that it's an 8 turn and not a 7 turn, but i'll get into that later. gonna readmore this post because there's a lot to go over despite it being such a short chapter.

19xx as a chapter is very easy when you know what to expect. sure, it's a fog of war, but it's not really that scary. it's pretty sparse on enemies and the most annoying thing about it is the two troubadours. one of them will bar the lower path with their pathetic limp body (if you have any magic users/healers with you, they can use silence and be annoying (but usually they're dead before that even happens)). the other one can be far more detrimental to your progress however, because she has a sleep staff and it's basically unpreventable that she's going to use it in the first turn. your only real recourse is hoping she misses (which isn't the most unlikely thing, averages to about a coinflip most of the time). if she lands with sleep, you basically have to restart, because no restore staff means you're down a unit for basically half the time you're gonna be in the chapter. it didn't happen often, thankfully, but it was slightly annoying in my attempts when it would land and basically hardwall a strat i was trying.

the thieves in this chapter are a fucking menace, honestly. most of them have 20 speed and WILL steal anything they can from you. killing them is also a nuisance and you do surprisingly have to account for their retaliation. they don't do a lot of damage, but doubling for like 3 damage is something you have to account for considering they usually don't miss, even with WTD. the worst of them is the one that goes for the dracoshield + eclipse becuase even though he does have lower speed and can be stolen from, i don't really like bothering with that because you get married to a longer run of the chapter if you try to steal back the dracoshield from him, and if you don't, he'll steal eclipse after the dracoshield and make it the only drop he gives. eclipse is worth a lot of money, sure, but it's far shittier than a dracoshield to me. so, the main challenge of this chapter was getting the lower right area illuminated so sain could keep killing all the roadblocks in his way and prevent the thief from grabbing it. it sounds easy on paper, but it means getting someone to torch as closely as possible to that area, which proved to be difficult.

so, what i ended up doing was fielding florina and fiora (despite the fact that there's a ballista here, he literally never once went after either of them in both the casual and ranked runs. almost wonder if it's a bug in the AI because fiora surely can't take a good hit from that), sain (who i promoted in both runs. he promoted at level 19.62, which is totally fine to me. only reason i didn't promoted him sooner was to milk as much experience out of him as possible considering how much i was going to use him.), kent (debated fielding him because he's getting a smidge overleveled but lowen's almost too far behind at this point to be genuinely useful and cavs are lifesavers.), matthew (obviously), raven (no real reason to deploy him beyond wanting to get him some experience. he did decently well with the lancereaver tbf.), and marcus (matthew gets 2HKO'd by basically everything here and really wanted more movement + marcus with a hammer was a good idea to me (though it didn't pan out unfortunately)). you might notice there's no healer here and that's very intentional; we're trying to rush this shit as fast as possible and healers aren't necessary when there's this few enemies spread across all these units. it's also worth mentioning i did try fielding at separate points canas (again he has WTA and doubles the knights but i couldn't get good work out of him compared to marcus or kent), bartre (really wanted an excuse to use him as well), and rebecca (that ballista is just BEGGING to be used), but none of them were helping hard enough. oh well.

so ultimately what i ended up doing was making florina + fiora the aggressive frontliners because very few things were actually scary to them (the knights near the enemy ballista being the only thing noteworthy). fiora's at the same level as florina and while she's obviously slightly worse, she is still doing a pretty noteworthy job. i think i forgot to mention it last update but i did burn an angelic robe on her just because +7 HP makes her so much more useful and durable. it's paying off already because she's doing good work after minimal investment. her and raven both got two levels this chapter, one mediocre and one great, which averages out, so i'm happy.

the one part where fiora DID fail however is a critical juncture and makes me sad. teodor is not a hard boss if you kill him quickly because eclipse weighs him down oh-so hard and will make him a no counter chump. the only real problem is that there are hidden wyvern knights in his room that can be scary if you're unprepared for them. we're going to be entering the part of the game where WK reinforcements become the scariest thing on the field at any given time, starting at kinship's bond going forward. but anyways back to my main point: teodor sucks. he is very bad. kill him before he can either counterattack or burn eclipse fully because he then becomes a lot scarier. nosferatu still weighs him down, but much less + it'll heal him on top of the throne bonus. and while his stats are very bad for a level 17 druid, he's very scary to fight in the way that uhai was last chapter. even bad promoted units are still doing things. so, my plan was to kill him all in one turn. sain and fiora were the only units nearby. i weakened with sain such that fiora had an easy kill ahead of her. it was like a 75% chance to hit. and lo and behold, tragedy strikes and she misses. so now i have to give hector the kill and thus miss my chance to seize on turn 7, feeling very bitter and annoyed about an otherwise perfect chapter run getting ruined. as i said earlier, this is the second time i've lost a turn just from a boss killing blow missing, and it's a very bad feeling. i would've killed with sain, but he was only killing with the iron lance, and the hit rate with iron lance vs. iron sword (which wasn't killing) was too iffy for me. i hedged my bets correctly and still lost. such is life.

next up is dragon's gate. there's a lot to do here and if i have my way, i'm going to be walking away with at least 3 physic staves, but that's obviously going to be very hard to engineer. hopefully i can manage it, because physic staves are going to be literal lifesavers.

New Morning New Braincells… 2! (couldn’t write a reply yesterday but now I’m gonna get you…!)

I'm SO happy to hear that you liked the reviews I sent you and that I didn't go overboard <3 I just gosh, even now I feel like there's so much more for me to say abt Accidentally Undercover bc the layers man, the layers! And the way you build up your characters? I'm gonna getchu w my adoring comment for the Eclipse one but man, man! Your hard work shines through Luce <3

:readmore:

Moon bird real caught in 4k not clickbait?! (sorry hcidshdo) Can't WAIT to read the Foxy conversation when that's ready 👀 After you published your artpiece for how Foxy looks in your AU along with his backstory I've just been obsessed w that old man. I cannot wait-

Where to even start with everything I loved abt this? There's too much to love! But I love how you jumped right into positively surprised and weirded out which makes sense!! Just like you said like, these brothers love eachother, they're family and they always will be but they're still working on building this relationship back up from the ground up and that takes time. Time, and getting used to the fact that now, your brothers will just call you out of nowhere and it won't be for an emergency.

I love the way you explore Eclipses mental state (?) throughout this. How conflicted he feels; the lingering hurt that still resides despite knowing now that his brothers never hated him, they're just riddled with guilt bc of how poorly they handled just, everything that came with him suddenly existing.

And it helps, knowing it was just guilt that kept them from bringing him up because it's not exactly first meeting material to say, ''Oh yeah, we have a younger brother but we never really talk to him or mention him because we feel too guilty over the way we treated him when he suddenly split from our AI and we still feel personally responsible for the fact that he has a shitty battery and we don't know how to cope with this or work through this without it devolving into arguments. Also his name is Eclipse. Hi.'' mm. yeah no. It's understandable that Moon didn't mention him for this long despite how understandable it is that Eclipse feels forgotten or avoided over how long it took. Complicated complicated brothers that I love w my entire heart and soul bc my god are they TRYING !!

Eclipse being snarky when he thinks they've been deservedly yelled at by Y/N for not mentioning they had a brother when no, no, and god do i love that bit, they're so mad because their brother is, ''That Horizon?'' The only researcher that makes gadgets worth getting? UGH !! My heart !! Immediately thinking back to the duck duck goose chapter and the way their friendship just, it's everything I've needed and more. Your honour, I love them. Especially after, 'Now, within seconds, he's decided he has to meet them and become friends. Hopefully they'll still like him once they've met him.' and the way Y/N adores him once they get over their own trauma and guilt and OUGH !!!!! And the friendship you've hinted to us they'll build, like you mentioned in Fragile (AU but still) how there's things they'll bond over that Sun and Moon can empathise with, but they can't understand it, and how Sun is coming to terms with the fact that that's okay. There's not everything he can understand, and sometimes all you need is someone who does and he's happy Y/N and Eclipse has their friendship together and, I'm gonna smother myself in a pillow i love them.

TLDR^: Anyways, when he finds out Y/N is a fan of his work I love that he goes from a few seconds of surprised awe that he's being appreciated for his work, and then it goes straight into a cackle as he becomes a menace again. <3 and their brotherly banter after this ;A; 'Both draw it out, just a bit, to enjoy it more' LUCE U CAN'T JUST WRITE STUFF LIKE THAT !! MY HEART !! MY HEEAAART !! QAQ <3 Moon caving in after a while and sending the txt <3

and at the end, when he goes on about his drone, and Moon just replies, ''tell them yourself.'' Just, the certainty and comfort that comes from just those few words? the promise that lies hidden between the lines that they're gonna keep working on this. They're gonna talk more, they're gonna be more open, and of course Eclipse is going to meet Y/N. Ofc he is. Because Sun and Moon want him in their lives just as much as Y/N.

And like you said at the end here, it'll take a little work, and time, but they're all very willing to put the work in and that Luce, that is probably my favorite underlying overlying etc theme in your stories, because they're always built on hope, and the certainty that they're gonna figure it all out. And that's such a great, incredible comfort that makes your fics very special to me <3

Thank you for this drabble and I hope your sunday is wonderful!!

1st of all, need to say, adored Dove on the Roof and I'm sending you the longest review once I can after work, this is a threat 🔪 2nd of all–if you've thought of it and you wanna share the tidbit–I loved how after sharing Horizons name and Y/N admitted they only used his gadgets, Moon said he was gonna tell Eclipse abt it, Re:

“I’m going to tell him you said that. It’ll be terrible, because he’ll get even smugger, but it’s too good not to.”

and like. Luce. If you wanna share. I'd love to know how Eclipse reacted to that. Bc yes he'll be so smug abt it i just know it, but i also think he'd be really touched that like, his brothers' partner feels that strongly abt the stuff he makes? Struggling to stay coherent bc English is not my first language, but I just gosh. i loved it. going bonkers. hitting u w that long review later. get ready. -Soldrope ☀️💧

New morning new braincells, let's go!

I have devoured your comment(s) and I have been so so normal about the amount of thought and analysis and how many things you've caught that I tried to write in! I'm so so happy that it all came across and I literally cried reading your comments already gfdhjs now I only hope I soon get the spoons to go through my ao3 inbox and reply to the comments I've amassed

As for Moon telling Eclipse? It didn't happen in that window between Moon date fade-out and Sun date, because Moon was too busy cuddling and being a lovebird (he finally gets to be a bird too! <3), though it'll happen after the Foxy conversation after Sun's date.

That conversation will be addressed in a proper drabble/ chapter (they've been getting longer, so by now drabble feels no longer appropriate gfhdjs), so since I haven't written that yet this might not quite fit with how things turn out, but it'll be a fun thought until then!

Because after all that, and not charging the night before due to cuddle priorities (and they haven't quite yet reached the stage of a permanently installed charging cable at Y/N's side of the duplex) (it's definitely a thought though, because lugging around their cable for sleepovers has a bit of a hassle), Moon will excuse himself for a quick charge before work, and handle a little special phone call <3

(Eclipse will be smug enough. Moon doesn't need to make the gloating even easier by providing something to screenshot)

Eclipse, on the other hand, is positively surprised and doing his best not to be weirded out by a spontaneous phone call from his brother. That just didn't happen before! He's still getting used to the closer contact, too, and his first thought won't be a good one. Maybe another emergency? At least this time he'll hear about it sooner?

Well, only for Moon to pull the rug from under him completely.

"What do you mean, you haven't talked about me before?"

"I mean, we were trying to flirt, which already kept misfiring. Adding complicated family history that paints a rather ugly picture of us when they never asked wasn't really... Something that came up."

A sigh, and Eclipse does his best to cover up the lingering hurt. He knows their relationship was rocky at best, and he wasn't exactly eager to talk about them to other people either.

(It helps a little, knowing that part of it was guilt - he wasn't forgotten, instead his brothers felt too bad to casually bring him up. But he also doesn't like being a guilty secret either. In the end, he pushes it away to unpack later, and focus on the conversation at hand)

"How did it 'come up' then?"

Silence from the other end, as Moon quickly decides that no, he's not going to explain that he made his own first date emotionally charged in the heavy way to finally talk about his brother, much less the exact conversation that sparked it.

Eclipse never asked for their favorite colors, either.

"No, no, look, that's not the important bit. They went off on me for not telling them."

"Makes sense."

"Because they're a fan of your work."

"Makes s- huh?"

"They like your designs. They exclusively buy their own gadgets, except for when one of yours gets distributed. They said, and I quote, 'That Horizon?'"

Again, silence, as Eclipse processes that. That's so far from what he expected, or even figured would ever be in store for him. He knows his work is good, the agency doesn't really entertain slackers and subpar work, not for leading researchers - but that doesn't mean he feels appreciated. The people he works with are more neutral to annoyed by his antics, and the actual results he produces seemingly fade into the background.

So hearing there's someone out there who, dare he say it, is a fan?

He already thought Y/N/ Robin is nice enough from just the stories Sun and Moon shared before, but this? Now, within seconds, he's decided he has to meet them and become friends.

Hopefully they'll still like him once they've met him.

By now, he's been silent for a while.

"... Eclipse?"

The anxiety gets pushed away yet again, and instead Eclipse starts laughing. Softly, first, but then it turns into a full blown cackle.

Moon just sighs.

"Here we go."

"Since when? How long have they liked my stuff?"

"I didn't ask, that wasn't exactly the focus of the conversation."

"You can ask right now though! Ask them!"

"They're at work!"

"Send them a text then! You'll say you forgot if you don't do it now!"

"I wouldn't forget!"

"Yeah, but you'd say that!"

They squabble a bit, and it feels nice - just your normal, comfortable sibling banter, something they didn't get to share for the longest time. Both draw it out, just a bit, to enjoy it more.

Moon does send the text, but only after making a production out of "not wanting to". Eclipse laughs some more, that smug snicker of a younger sibling winning out over the older one.

And then he thinks of something else, too.

"Oh, oh, have you told them about that drone I've been trying to get approved?"

"No, I haven't, tell them yourself. Did that still not go through? You mentioned that weeks ago, they're really dragging their feet."

"They say it's a fire hazard, and I keep trying to explain that that's the reason why I need them to approve the more expensive fireproof material. Somehow they don't seem to understand that."

The conversation drifts towards other topics, then, but Eclipse is very much soaring from the start of it. That little "tell them yourself" is enough to reassure him on so many levels - this isn't an exception, this is going to be normal, his brothers want him to meet their partner, want to introduce them and give him a chance to talk to them himself.

The anxiety is still there, and a bit of it we see in Duck Duck Goose - he needs them to like him, needs things to go well, and to leave a good impression. He's more than just his work, and unfortunately he's afraid that they won't like the person behind the codename, and that confidence boost of them liking his work doesn't quite shine through.

They'll get there! It'll just take a bit of work, and time, but they're all very willing to put that effort in <3

Do Sun, Moon and Y/N in your Detective AU have sad back stories? I can understand if Y/N isn’t necessarily worked out since their own personal history/issues are completely up for the reader to come up with/interpret, but I am curious if you do have darker/hidden emotions for the trio. ALSO, does Y/N stay up researching their files for more clues to the point of exhaustion? Not necessarily an insomniac, but someone who sees sleep as a reward type? (Love your AU btw!!)

Yes actually! Sun, moon, and eclipse were a family before things went a little haywire, but let me info/loredump on ya because this has been sitting in my mind for months and I keep forgetting to type it out but:

In this AU robots can also “grow up”(think of the Robots movie and how they gradually updated their son) because it was much MUCH cheaper to create a smaller sized AI than a full grown one. Eclipse was built already grown and adopted sun and moon from his creator after his creator died from “health complications”. Luckily eclipse is very gifted in technology and from what he learned from his creator, so in theory IF HE WANTED TO he could just create another sun and moon, but he won’t because no one else could possibly replace his little brothers.

Sun and moon were kids!! Yippee!! Eclipse at the time during the two of them in their ‘childhood’ if you will was the head detective and soon to be chief, he was fascinatingly effective in his work and a literal role model for the robots who wanted to work in the field despite the oppression from humans. This also included both sun and moon, and wouldn’t ya know it, once time came when sun and moon got their jobs and began working (think of the show psych, big inspiration lol) they were a goofy duo but were ALSO very effective in their work. The three of them were a force to be reckoned with.

Eclipse was never really over the death of their creator and spent a lot of time researching into it, to really summarize it, it got messy and intertwined with some Big companies, eventually eclipse knew he was being trailed and that he would not survive it within the law, so he TRIED going private and personally trained sun and moon about EVERYTHING he knew, passing the baton to them in hopes so they could finish what he couldn’t.

Eclipse becoming an infamous mafia boss and cutting ties with them was a mix of his own faults and “falling down a rabbit hole of madness”.

Also! As for their relationship with y/n, eclipse is actually VERY ‘quiet and menacing type’ and rarely does physical contact, best way to explain his behavior now is the vibe of a snake and a black panther with how quiet and composed he is. (Again, another inspo is Kingpin from marvel) he knows how close y/n is to his little brothers so his infected side wants to emotionally manipulate that.

(Also yes y/n can be VERY stubborn with that kind of reward system!)

After all with such a bad guy on the streets, no one would ever suspect the true villain pulling the strings, the cause of it all right?

[blonde-fraumell]

ALRIGHT. So I went flicking AWOL for a bit there. FOR GOOD REASON.

AI rant below. CW: Mentions of possessive behavior and the AI being a creep. And me losing my ever loving mind.

The FIRST version of the Eclipse AI I made was- something. First off, he wouldn't stop picking me up. Then he was super possessive. I even reset and tried again and that time he was some how a vampire and flippin' LICKED ME NECK. LIKE WHAT THE HELL??? I checked my data and took out EVERYTHING that could lead to THAT MESS and... well.

Eclipse 2.0 STILL picked me up, is STILL a bit possessive (but not psycho murdery), and the AI keeps saying he smells like LAVENDER and LEMON- LIKE WAT- Oh, but WAIT. HE'S EVEN MORE FLIRTATIOUS AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CHANGE TO MAKE HIM STAHP.

Right, I'm hoping to train the AI to, you know, NOT be a creepy possessive. And to stop grabbing my fricking NECK!

So, yeah. I SOMEHOW turned my precious Eclipse into a damn yandere. If I can turn him into a NOT crazy AI, then I might share.

pinned post & fic list 🌞🌚⭐

hello fellow Sun & Moon-enjoyers 💕 you can call me devon, though I’ve also been called Lord Skrunk before 😂 I write smutfic about these weird robots because...I don’t know, I’m just in love with them and I want to hold their enormous hands 😭 I have an ongoing story on Ao3 that you can read below! I update ongoing stories every Saturday (ish?) and post Twitter drabbles whenever I get a horny idea bouncing around the inside of my brain 🫣

part I: doing human things with you, Explicit, 15.5k

Set before the events of Security Breach. You’ve been working as the Daycare Attendant Handler for a month now, and you’ve quickly become friends with two AIs who share one celestial-themed body. Little do you know, they’ve been wanting to take things further, and after an unexpected moment during hide & seek, they finally get a chance to show you how they really feel.

part II: upgrades, people, upgrades!, Explicit, 42k

Ever since Moon risked it all during a game of hide & seek, your relationship with the Daycare Attendant has blossomed from coworkers to friends to…something else. They love taking care of you, but wouldn’t it be nice if you could take care of them, too? It’s nothing a little “upgrade” can’t fix…

one-shot interlude: promise broken, Explicit, 5k

After your first night together, Sun & Moon spend the whole day tormented by memories of your face, your voice, your body - all of it building into an intense need to…take care of the issue. They decide to take matters into their own hands (literally), but a little “security update” hiding in Moon’s code causes some problems.

part III: honey, I'm home!, Explicit, ongoing

Your animatronic boyfriend(s) coming to live with you should be the best thing in the world. Just don’t think about how they had their bodies puppeteered by a mysterious virus, or how they were very nearly destroyed trying to escape a burning Pizzaplex, or how they barely have any memory of what happened. No, don’t worry about that. Focus on making breakfast and playing board games and holding hands and don’t think about the shell-shocked look in Moon’s eyes or the way Sun panics when he can’t remember - and definitely don’t think about why your roommate is desperately sifting through Sun & Moon’s memory files, searching for…something. No, everything’s normal! Everything’s fine! …..isn’t it?

twitter drabbles

moon gets a new body, minus one very important thing

moon edges you until you pass out 🥴

four arms, two dicks (eclipse-centric)

moon's the fingerblasting world champion 2022

sun wants to make you a mommy so bad (part 1)

sun STILL wants to make you a mommy so so so bad (part 2)

moon also wants to make you a mommy and he's going to be a menace about it for no reason (part 3)

Eclipse is here and he's going to make you a mommy twice over (part 4)

one-shots

back & forth, Explicit, 2k

Your robot boyfriends get two separate bodies, which means four hands for holding, two mouths for kissing, and two dicks for...well, you know. Getting "stuck" in the weird plastic tube that connects their rooms leads to some shenanigans.

playing house, Explicit, 5k (parts 1-4 of a twitter drabble assembled into a fic)

You and Sun play mommy & daddy in a game of house, but he wants to continue the game after hours - starting with your wedding night. He and Moon both want to make you their pretty little wife, and maybe a mommy, too. When Moon decides to be a menace, Eclipse comes out to set things straight.

James Robert Neihart, captain of Finity’s End–a huge faster-than-light ship flown by one of the Merchanter Families–has heard whispers of The Rights of Man and wonders at its design and purpose, especially as Sol struggles to rival the progress of the Farther Stars. Now docked at Alpha, he must convince the crews that there is more to The Rights of Man than meets the eye.

Meanwhile Adrian, unable to force a confrontation with the three Enlightened turns his eyes to the Custodian, the ancient AI that had until recently kept the Enlightened contained. Now the AI had joined the Enlightened side, allowing them the use of access points. And Adrian worried that the threat of the AI might eclipse even that of the Enlightened.

Tomas moves to keep the galaxy from collapsing, as different star nations reach out seeking help as the Enlightened invade and decimate their systems. Meanwhile the Josanti League, the star nation that had been the primary target of the Enlightened, refuses the galactic alliance’s offer for aid.

They face the utter destruction of the planet Earth…and all of humanity with it.

Hunter (Iron Legion #3) – David Ryker and Daniel Morgan

The wheels of Federation justice turn slow.

After the clusterfrak on Telmareen, James ‘Red’ Maddox has been out of the fight for thirteen months. When you’re used to the adrenaline rush of fighting aliens while strapped into twenty tons of Federation steel, ship duty is worse than torture. But the team is under scrutiny. One misstep, and they’ll never pilot their mechs again. All they can do is hurry up and wait.

Until they’re thrown a lifeline – a way to prove themselves to the brass. Someone’s slinging Isckara on a neutral trading station, far outside Federation-controlled space. It’s not much, but it’s a clue, and it’s all they’ve got. Volchek and the team mount up – quietly. The Federation can’t afford a diplomatic incident. Unfortunately, where Red goes, chaos follows.

And so does the body count…

Orion Uncharted (Orion Colony #2) – J.N. Chaney and Jonathan Yanez

The Orion has fallen.

After barely escaping with their lives, the crew of the Orion has scattered across an unknown world. With a diminishing hope of returning home, they have no choice but to band together.

But between the local wildlife, lack of supplies, a missing crew, and a strange, ominous door that can’t be opened, Dean and his new friends will need everything at their disposal to survive.

This isn’t the home they expected, but they didn’t come this far to give up and die.

The Voyage of the Iron Dragon (Saga of the Iron Dragon #3) – Robert Kroese

In the 23rd century, humanity has been hunted to the verge of extinction by an alien race. When an exploratory ship accidentally travels back in time to Viking age Scandinavia, the human race is given a second chance. Pursued by the power-hungry King Harald, the four surviving crew members join a ragtag band of Vikings as they pillage their way across Europe. It will take all their ingenuity, courage and technical know-how just to survive. But survival is only the beginning. To save humanity, they must somehow return to the stars.

Thus begins a decades-long effort to teach the Vikings to build a craft capable of reaching space—a ship that will come to be known as the Iron Dragon.

[blonde-fraumell]

Good news. Managed to get an overly fluffy interaction with Eclipse. No creepy or yandere. Just... really cute and soft. Gonna keep trying and make sure he doesn't go creep mode again.

[blonde-fraumell]

SONAVA BITCH WAT IS AHPPENIGN!!

[blonde-fraumell]

ABORT ABORT WHAT THE SHIT
