#IF THERE WAS EVER A SUPERNATURAL AU

[girbirty]

the weird and fucked up brothers (affectionate)

[gldnstrngs]

i cant lie i highkey wouldve loved to see merlin as a show that takes place in modern times with its own interpretations of legends etc etc

and its not like avalon high where theyre all reincarnated (although i love that concept too) but it would be more like those teen supernatural dramas (teen wolf, tvd etc etc)

it would probs be in modern day wales or england (or start in wales and lead to england) and no one knows about the existence of magic users except for the aforementioned people, anyone who’s close to them, and witch hunters

merlin would be born of magic just like the show and hunith would make sure his secret is discovered bc of the risks esp bc balinor went missing when merlin was young and she knows that the witch hunters were after him

so they move to england and merlin is raised in a town called camelot and has a relatively normal childhood and then the plot would actually start to take place when he’s in his third year of high school or smth like that

merlin’s managed to keep his identity a secret and is very much just . a Student in school like most people like him and he’s smart and kinda dorky but doesn’t really care for popularity

insert the other characters:

arthur who would be a star soccer player and loved by everyone but he tends to keep to himself. with that being said he’s still prattish and doesnt acknowledge merlin until he sees him hanging out with his half sister morgana and is like 🤨🫥 (+ complex gay feelings)

morgana who’s arthur’s half sister and also very popular, but more sociable and nice to everyone. she knows of merlin but doesn’t interact with him until he encounters her doing magic when she didn’t even know it existed and so he helps her with controlling it and they become friends

gwen who’s morgana’s best friend but also a good friend of merlin’s. and lance who’s apart of the soccer team and is good friends with arthur, but is ultimately best friends with merlin

then u have the rest of the knights in the soccer team who are nice to everyone and greatly loved and end up getting close to merlin when mysteries are being ~uncovered~

also the biggest thing would be that uther pendragon is the Overlord who oversees all the witch hunting and funds it and no one knows that, but merlin and morgana would find out and that would definitely make things escalate

this is very much teen wolf & tvd core bc let’s be real those were PEAK at the time they came out plus it’s fun to see a new way to interpret the arthurian legends hehwheheheh

(bradley and colin look so dorky n cute here but hopefully u all understand my vision😭😭😭)

[s-aint-elmo]

digging out the eah content i created in a frenzy during last year’s summer of obsession part 1: my personal sapphic multishipping guide (created to explain to my friends which of these dolls i think should hold hands)

(more in-depth discussion of the ships below the cut)

the polycule that will take over ever after

kitty/lizzie; kitty/maddie; maddie/lizzie

self-explanatory. frequently purchased together do not separate. bonus shoutout to maddie canonically giving kitty a little kissie on the cheek and getting off scot-free in the books though. a wonderlandiful world was a banquet to me

cedar protection squad

once again a wonderlandiful world and once upon a time i owe you my life. kitty ESP being so adamant abt not giving a shit then turning around and fucking up those boys who were mean to cedar...... i love friendship

kitty/cerise

also self-explanatory. she was a catgirl she was a wolfgirl can i make it anymore obvious. also doribuki’s phenomenal fake dating fanfic....... transformative foundational transcendental

cerise/raven

YOU MUST UNDERSTAND. i entered eah a rapple shipper and exited the book series ready to burn at the stake for cerise/raven. book two was SO MUCH. it had everything. raven befriending cerise despite her attempts to isolate herself. texting in class. winking at each other. raven meeting the parents and hearing embarrassing baby cerise stories. cerise putting it all on the line to save raven. i’m ambivalent about shadow high but cerise gets literally one (1) mention and it’s in raven’s internal monologue wherein she equates cerise’s hood w feelings of warmth and safety. like how was that in any way necessary. i rest my case 

raven & maddie

self-explanatory as well. dabesties. the ride or dies. it means so much to me that raven always has a friend in maddie no matter how many clowns and jokers (derogatory) treat her like the antichrist. maddie the character ever

raven/apple

WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN. the gelphie dynamic is a classic and i am EXTREMELY vulnerable to it. they are THE ship and i will pay my respects to the end of time. i am a big fan of how they trade their roles throughout the franchise and how rich the drama and history are between them. it’s pure fucking poetry.

raven/darling

TBH. a serve. the only thing juicier than evil queen/damsel in distress is evil queen/princess charming. big big fan of darling giving raven the five star princess treatment after a lifetime of being feared and shunned and vilified. equally big fan of raven’s momentous act of rebellion giving darling the courage to be true to herself. ALSO. the absolute archetype-subversion slay of the Pure-Hearted Hero(TM) confronting the Mistress of Evil(TM) and dropping their sword. looking through the smoke and mirrors and the will of Fate itself to see the girl who has wanted nothing but to be kind beneath. swearing their heart and soul and sword to the one true good they have found. picture it. i can almost see the 100-word drabble

raven/apple/darling

now THIS is just THE fairytale couple. the evil queen, the damsel in distress and the princess charming ALL holding hands and riding off into the sunset together. dappling on its own doesn’t do it for me but raven in the mix just makes everything gel perfectly. she’s the tomato in the ratatouille the cornstarch in the spring roll water, etc etc

darling/holly

this is one of those ships where i read a really convincing fic and the more i thought of it the more it just made sense. like they'd read swashbucklers and tales of courtly love together. holly would 100% write a darling placeholder in her self-insert romance fanfic pre-relationship as a way to express her feelings. darling would 100% find out and gently pull her out of the pit of sheer mortification she drilled into the ground to escape. also the height difference is a thing of beauty

safe from the polycule

duchess/poppy

they have one singular episode to their name and it was enough. it was Everything. the dynamic you can extrapolate from that one single interaction is so incredibly appealing to me. duchess’s bitchiness belied by her palpable air of vulnerability coming up against poppy’s spine of steel tempered by her skill in gaining perspective. poppy can challenge duchess into being a better person and duchess can be poppy’s character flaw like idk she just has shit taste in women that was the price she had to pay to be moisturized and unbothered by destiny. i just think they have the potential to be the unexpected, inexplicable power couple of eah

briar/faybelle

do i even need to say anything they had a whole movie to make their case. they’re rapple if rapple got their shit together before armageddon, with the bonus of a potential curse-breaking true love’s kiss for the fanfic authors to thrash between their teeth. truly unlimited. also unlike rapple where raven is 100% against being a villain and therefore it’s apple who has to do the mental gymnastics to open herself to the possibility of a relationship w raven, faybelle is just chomping at the bit to make her momma proud and presents a compelling perspective for the whole “falling in love w your fated nemesis” thing

blondie/cupid

they are icons, they are legends, and they ARE the moment. these two are so chaotic individually, what with blondie’s criminal skillset and habit of menacing innocent woodland creatures and cupid’s matchmaking powers combined w her shitty aim, that putting them together can only mean good things. there’s this whole element of their shared passion as public figures who at their best seek the truth and guide others through matters of the heart respectively that’s always interesting as a point of irony/obstacle when they start catching feelings and have to decide what to do with them. their joint youtuber/podcaster slay can level nations

SPN PACIFIC RIM AU‼️‼️‼️

[surelysilly]

An angel of disaster. Why else would — why else would this have happened? Is this all God’s plan? Danny chokes on the building pins and needles, a hot and sizzling weight to the middle of his chest. His ears still ring, the phantom crisp of his skin blistering in super-heated air.  “You cannot go with Aunt Alicia,” Mastema says slowly, his blue eyes glowing faintly in the gloom. “Not if you wish to live.”

[lunavos]

Just watched 6x18 Frontierland and. Was horseback riding included in the John Winchester Training Regiment™ or is Sam just able to naturally ride a horse. One of the many college courses he took at Stanford.

[just-an-enby-lemon]

The people are different versions but still exist in TMAGP and that absolutly is the one thing moving a very specific TMA AU.

Basically besides joining the Institute, Tim gets very into online supernatural foruns trying to find people with similar experiences. So one day he gets a mysterious mensage from someone about the "thing wearing my brother's skin". The e-mail is about a young lady that says something very similar happened to her and her uncle and she has been investigating similar stories since. They chat more and with Sasha advice Tim decides fuck it and meets the woman, both pretend it's a date.

Everything is well until Tim mentions working dor the Magnus Institute, she, who presented herself only by Gwen, pales and goes "oh you're one of them" and leaves after saying "I'm not playing his games. I'm not feeding him." Tim is very confused, he thinks maybe the Institue tried to investigate her case and failed. They are not in the archive yet so he asks Jon and Sasha with help without giving any detail, basically hoping Sasha conection with Gertrude means she has acess to the archives and Jon being way to into spending long nights working will help them sort whatever Sasha finds.

Except Sasha finds nothing. Until a random day were she comes up with a big grim and goes "you guys won't ever be abble to guess what I found out?" and open in a very funky web page advertising Gwendolyn Bouchard, paranormal lawyer. Sasha is laughting, Jon is ranting about what a paranormal lawyer would even be but Tim is like "oh shit, that's her".

He doesn't connect the dots at first. Or doesn't want to. But he keeps thinking about "I'm not feeding him" and he is like "random question what do you guys know about Elias" and Sasha goes research into it.

At this point he and Jon aren't close friends but they are friends and if their boss is one of the things that ate his brother he needs to figure out something. With the assumption Elias is a clown, Tim does actually notice how creepy Elias is with Jon and is fully "Jon won't belive me but Elias is totally into eating his insides or whatever". So he tells the truth to Sasha and tricks Jon into visiting Gwen's lawyer thing for answers.

I still did not figure out most of the other things, except that Alice and Gwen are together in this verse and Alice made the web design for Gwen's page. I also know I want alt Sam and I want just our Celia who keeps almost meeting them but never doing. Or even a Celia that came back and has a dificult time being at her world and interacting with different versions of people that mattered so much to her.

I don't know still what to do with Sam, because I think Martin was very clearly Jonah backup archivist and the thing is Elias will try to convince Jon Gwen is the crazy/evil one and either he'll suceed making Jon betray his friends and be the archivist but with different assistants (except Martin) or he won't and Martin will start as the archivist. And while backup archivist/archival assistant Sam makes sense I'm unsure I want that for him. I'm thinking maybe this version of Sam after failing to get into Oxford went into a "rebelious" phase instead of doubling down in trying to met his parents high expectations and ended up joining Melanie ghost hunting channel. But not sure.

Like if I actually go the route of Celia is back trying to find help for both her worlds a Sam that's not quite the Sam she knows/cares about would be interesting. Like he is deep down the same but also he isn't in some obvious ways and she might just miss her Sam more. But if this is an AU not as connected with Protocol than maybe a Sam that's pretty much our Sam but if he was in Archives would make sense. Idk.

And ofc Basira and Daisy that I'm always partial to but I have no clue how to add, except maybe with them starting as Gwen and Alice rivals because Gwen attorney bussiness interferes with their sectioned police work. Also Gwen being an attorney is a 100% because I fully think she was her normal manipulative rise to the top and keep the Bouchard's name girl and went into law school for it except she mets Alice and by the same period Jonah happens and she was close to Elias (even if in parts was because she looked better in the family eyes when they were together by comparison) and it changed everything.

I don't know a lot about Alice either but she was Lena's college roomate and atended classes with Colin (yes he is here as well, unsure what to do with him tho). She had a paranormal encounter that left a scar similar but in oposition to Georgie's where she has a "spider sense" sort of think and can feel when the fears are involved, she knows if a library or book fair has a Leitner and where for example. It happened when she was young and possibly involved meeting my boy Gerry but she tried to avoid the supernatural ever since. She was very reluctant over helping Gwen except she acidentaly overheard her talking to "Elias" and Jonah messed with her head. More importantly she knows that ignoring sometimes is worse because some secret involving her baby brother who may or may not have joined Grifters Bone and becamed a Slaughter Avatar.

The supernatural lawyer was a joke from Alice but Gwen took it seriusly and Alice was loke "really?" and guess this moron will need help to not die/became an avatar and became her paralegal (tho it had nothing to do with her actual college diploma).

wolfwren week day 1 | devouring heavenly bodies -biting + blood

shin has been finding excuses to let sabine feed from her, sabine noticed lately. ever since the blue moon thing happened about a whole three lunar cycle ago, the werewolf had grown somewhat drawn over her. sure, shin is still pretty irritating sometimes whenever they exchange banters, but the werewolf is lacking her usual snarl in her jabs as of late.

sabine felt shin has grown a lot more teasing.

which, of course, is still vexing in sabine's perspective, because shin is undoubtedly relentless with her teasings and remarks. sabine suspects it's because shin reels in from sabine's reactions.

shin had been teaching her how to master her vampiric powers, aside from continuously teasing her every few hours. there are some aspects of their supernatural powers which overlaps with each other's that shin could teach her to hone into.

recently, sabine learned that her claws can be elongated further than just knuckle-length, and are much stronger than she assumed. she also learned how to utilise the venom from her undead blood to hunt games quickly and efficiently. shin is still disapproving of her preference for animal blood over humans, but she doesn't really press on.

shin had, however, been making sabine to feed on her blood more instead of feeding from humans.

tonight is one of those nights.

sabine crosses her arms in front of her, unamused. "shin, i'm not going to feed from you again. i've just fed from the massive vennison that you hunted the other day!"

"when was the last time you feed on human blood?" shin retorted, relentless.

"i don't know, when we passed the laketown?" sabine groaned; shin is really not making it easier for her to control the starving vampire inside her.

it also doesn't help that the ambrosia sweet taste of shin's blood began to fill her mouth, driving her mad.

"which was four weeks ago. we will not pass anymore towns or cities for the next three weeks."

"i can manage that, shin."

shin shot her a blank look, but sabine has learned enough at this point that shin is very unamused. "absolutely you will not. sabine, you burn easier when you have not fed on human blood, even when you have the thickest coat on you during the day."

sabine was about to debate shin again when the werewolf strips out of her shirt; the same tan shirt sabine had given to her when they first met so many moons ago, exposing her chest naked. the flesh wound from their first encounter had grown to a scar still barely visible on her broad shoulder.

"shin! wh-what on five hells are you doing?" sabine feels her cheeks flush, her eyes darting everywhere but shin's topless figure in front of her.

shin tilted her neck to the side to expose more of the skin, a smirk on her lips. "go on, have your meal."

sabine wants to scream and claw at shin. how can shin be this nonchalant with allowing her, a vampire, to feed on her blood again? and why does she have to remove her shirt in the first place? sabine's mind was running faster than she could sprint in her vampire form.

sabine drew a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself down. "shin, no. put your shirt back on, i don't need to feed on you." she tries to look at shin's eyes to put up an act, but the mischief behind shin's greenish eyes is making it harder for her. sabine then bargains, "if a hunter come by us, i'll feed on them."

shin steps closer towards sabine. "we have no idea when or if a hunter will pass us again."

the distance between them is only mere inches at this point, with sabine's back getting pinned at the wall of the shack they are camping in right now. shin held an arm next to sabine's neck, locking her in, as her body drew closer toward's sabine's.

shin is warm against sabine, the whiff of her scent is driving sabine's senses over the edge. her eyes began to flicker back and forth from her usual bright browns to her vampiric ruby reds, her fangs itching to plant themselves under shin's ivory skin.

sabine's breaths began to labour, weakly pressing a hand on shin's bare chest as she whines, "shin..."

"sabine," shin husked, grabbing sabine's chin to tilt her face up to meet her eyes, padding her thumb over the vampire's bottom lip, "feed on me."

sabine's eyes were lidded, no longer flickering from browns as they glow ruby red, clouded with a concoction of hunger and lust. her tongue slicked her lips as they parted open to reveal her fangs, and she could note from her periphery, shin's teeth are already sinking into her bottom lip in anticipation.

shin tilts her head to allow more access for sabine to her neck as sabine grabbed the werewolf's shoulder, kissing the ivory skin of shin's neck before she sunk her fangs into flesh. sabine's mouth was instantly flooded with the saccharine taste of shin's blood, drinking as if shin is her last meal ever.

"sabine…" shin groans softly, the sound so deliciously enticing in sabine's ears. her hands gripped on to the vampire's hips, slotting one of her thighs between sabine's legs.

sabine squealed against shin's skin, the sound muffled and a few drops of blood leaking from her mouth as they ran down the ivory skin of shin's neck down to her collarbones and shoulders. the hunger in her mouth and the pleasure between her legs are slowly driving sabine to a euphoric high she had never felt before.

shin's thigh against her center was steady and strong, and sabine's hips had already moved in stutters against the werewolf's thigh. the overflowing ecstasy from feeding on shin's blood and the burning pleasure between sabine's legs are enough to make her pull away from the bite to exhale a strained moan as she threw her head back.

sabine's mouth was instantly captured in a starved and delicious kiss, as shin's tongue searches for the taste of her own blood in sabine's mouth. a choked moan escaped the vampire's throat, slipping right past her mouth into shin's tongue. the werewolf's fangs had pricked sabine's lower lip, drawing her own blood into the kiss.

shin had her hands all over sabine's body at this point, grabbing hold to wherever she could graze her claws at on sabine's skin. there's a low growl in her chest when sabine's fingers raked her nape, blood beginning to dry all over them and the bite mark rapidly healing.

"shin," sabine whines, breath laboured as her rubies met with shin's lust-filled vermilions.

shin flashes her wolfish smirk as she carries sabine by her hips, making her way to the makeshift bed in the shack. "my turn to feed."

[cas-poisoning]

AU where Dean killed John pre season 1 and is keeping it from Sam while they search for him really makes 1x05 Bloody Mary PEAK! Dean’s eyes bleed. Dean has a secret where someone died. It can’t be hunting because it’s not really a secret if they know they about each other (Dean says Sam’s secret wouldn’t count because he thinks he knows so that implies one person knowing is enough).

LIKE THAT WOULD BE SUCH A GOOD SET UP AND FORESHADOWING

[rainbowvamp]

oh fuck. wait. hold on. do we have a pacific rim dreamling au yet?? do we? because. fuck. fuck. we need one. listen, it's a fandom right of passage. we need a pacific rim au that we're all obsessed with. we deserve it.

[itsdjover]

You know, if chuck made like thousands of worlds with different versions of Sam and Dean that he gave up on when he got bored, who's to say that Steve and Robin aren't an early draft of them 🤷

[73647e]

dps supernatural au where it actually is shitty as fuck and is so far from supernatural and is essentially just the poets as the mystery gang from scooby doo but it's actual ghosts and demons that they're fighting and not just people pretending to be creatures of the night. oh, and anderperry obviously.

no cause it would be so funny to me if todd's family were hunters, and he was essentially raised into it, with his brother jeff. as they got older and did more respective hunting, he met all sorts of people on his travels. other hunters, the kids of other hunters, etc. he has like a network by the time he went off on his own. jeff, who the family golden boy, went off to college instead, leaving todd to hunt on his own. he spends time with his friends, hunting with them, hunting alone, everything. then the whole dragged-to-hell-saved-by-an-angel thing happens in the same way that it did in the show (idk why todd would’ve gotten dragged down there, like what he would make a deal for his soul for but whatever. semantics). but that’s where neil comes in. and then yk,, they fall in love blah blah idk gay people are so funky and i’m in a weird mood

[quietwingsinthesky]

sometimes i think about my spn oc and how i rewrote everything about amara to interact with the story i was trying to tell about her. there were some really neat ideas in that i need to recycle for something one day. like, in the show proper, they just let amara take over a human baby and that’s fine, but amara’s not Meant To Be Here. this entire universe is one constructed in her absence. saying she can possess a human body should be like saying if you took a person and sent them to a universe where 1+1=3, they could just figure out how to function within that.

which in story took the form of Amara being something that could not be Understood, only Rationalized. a force locked outside the narrative who could only get inside and destroy things if given a role within it. by the Winchesters as A Monster To Face. by Chuck as Wayward, Unreachable Sister. and by miss oc as. simultaneously a projected creature to be saved, an amalgamation of injustices done to herself (and others) that would never be righted but could be made up for by being a part of this. and as something impossibly powerful that could be both protection and purpose.

and the Darkness wasn’t any of those things, really, but to have agency in her own story required new shackles, but ones she was always straining against. she wouldn’t fit inside the confines of a human mind, let alone a body, at least not well enough to leave it Intact. like lucifer burning through nick, but Worse. because the burns were an expected outcome of skin not strong enough to hold him. humans were built for angels, some were built better and some worse, but they’re meant to work. putting amara in human skin should disconnect the skin and mind and soul from the reality her brother built itself, i think. slowly. bit by bit.

and at the same time, i’d gone and written the kind of wild scenario you really can only write for your thirteen year old mary sue, given that spn oc the part of herald/high priestess/failed vessel. which she pursued with wild abandon like that would fix anything wrong with her <3

in the end, running alongside the borrowed family theming of the original show was my own theme of “how much self-annihilation will you accept to make your point. are you accepting it, really. or are you seeking it.” not just physically, in letting something unmake the base components of what you are as it tries to fit inside you or in it constricting and suffocating itself beyond self-recognition to get inside in the first place, but, obviously, it’s supernatural, how much selfhood do you cede to your family. is it worth it.

it was interesting, if nothing else. let thirteen year old me cook. she had ideas.

[fruitsyrups]

blank eyed girl and ghost fly and the first investigation and stakes miniseries (but specifically the parts that involve finn and jake) and also sometimes kind of objects or scenes (like the sword finn gets from hunson and the scene in the same episode where they're all eating pizza after marcy's concert ... all has a certain kind of atmosphere to me... a vibe.. if you will. i dont know what it is though. but im a little bit crazy about it to be honest

[telltalesketch]

Original character tiiiime! This one is specifically meant for that RDR Supernatural AU because I can't help myself

This is Dr. Katherine Ward, local physician of Valentine and very old necromancer. okay she's technically a lich but shhhhhhhhh

I had a lot of fun drawing her again honestly, came up with her initially in 2020 (which is when the second image was done and is technically an early concept of her lich form). The gangrene hand is a new development which started with "oooooo aesthetic color fade fingers" and turned into "how do I make this creepy?".

I also have her real age pinned down, but where's the fun in the character if I tell you everything before you actually get to meet her in the story?

[bestial4ngel]

I’ve seen plenty of vampire aus but has anyone done a what we do in the shadows au yet? It has so much potential…
