HEY THERE :3 Welcome to the sideblog for @feralmoonlight Here you'll find an easier archive of all my AU shenanigans, mostly Reblogs from main after I get this set up. AO3 <- all published written stuff can be found here, of course~

Main AUs~

Canon/Semi Canon-- Hands On Experience - Touch related collection w/ eventual plot (mostly fluff, friends to lovers, disconnected spice on the side) Sometimes It's Worth The Risk - YN Badly Flirting with Sun/Moon (Fluff, suggestive, some angst eventually, romantic) Forgotten But Not Gone - Freestanding daycare abandoned for 10 years, animatronic included (dark, angst, some violence, maybe suggestive, mostly platonic, possible confused romantic feels? platonic at the point of plot in my head)

Heavy AU Vibes-- Under The Horizon / How To Tame Death - Sea Creatures~ YN finds the thrill of life with a few close (friendly) encounters with somethings that shouldn't exist. (UTH// Adventure?, fluff, some violence, platonic, maybe romantic? most likely not romantic... They are creatures. I might be a monsterfucker but... Unless? Jury is out. Lets see how these guys write first LMAO.) (HTTD// Violence, a little dark, Enemies to Tolerated lmao, maybe a drop or two of fluff. Eclipse is big mad like 90% of the time. Prequel to UTH by like 10-15 years? time frame is undecided.)

Casual / Backburner AUs~

Canon/Semi Canon--

By Default - Catch all universe for my default YN, the one with the bandanna lol. Who knows what's goin in this. Headder and Icon would count in this AU so it's more just scribbles n shit, but I do have some Fic things planned that would work for it.

Dangerous Haven - YN seeks shelter at the Plex during a horrible storm. Moon 'greets' them at the door.

Doordash AU - Post fire, Sun and Moon are picked up from scrap 'get a job' delivering food. A chance meeting with YN marks the start of a weird friendship when YN starts ordering from the same restaurant at the same time to try and score another meeting with this interesting driver. Shenanigans ensue.

Out Date - Dark but not Canceled dark. A La Detroit:Become Human, AI and Bots have been a more commonplace thing for ages now, though with the increased capabilities of sentience, their rights have barely been upgraded to that of an animal, let alone something with emotions and sapient thought. Troublesome/Flawed bots can be returned to something like a repair shelter for something of a refund. Repairs/system maintenance will be performed, and they'll be offered out at discount prices to whoever would want to take on damaged goods. Sun and Moon have been returned a number of times already. Enough so that the manager is getting tired of seeing them walk back through the door. They know this. But so does the scrappy YN that's been making ends meet with the receptionist job at the front. Over all, they can't tell what's wrong with the bot. He's pretty polite, and on the chance he's in a good mood, kinda funny. Luckily the boss man just wants him gone, and is willing to haggle a lower than average price to get him out of his care. Lucky for YN, you can afford it, sorta. You can make it work. And that's the plan, no matter what kind of damage this guy seems to have, that's really the only option. You're not gonna just sit by and watch them kill him, after all. Then again, you also planned on bringing home ONE AI. Not two. And oh boy, Sun isn't quite as friendly once he realizes they've been bought yet again. The unease right off the bat is thick enough to cut with a knife even before the lights go out. (Dark themes, depressed YN, bitchy sun, aggressive moon, some harder violence but no death aside from the whole 'putting bots down' angle. Eventual platonic, probably romantic late game, spice on the side most likely)

E-Clip / Pornbot AU <- SUGGESTIVE AU, Eclipse starts out as a tumblr porn bot that manages to end up in Sun/Moons head, but most of the virus/phishing stuff is wiped by their security leaving the base code of 'flirt for attention' which latches onto the AI Base and slowly developes into it's own consciousness. Which manifest by flirting(under the radar) with YN and eventually strikes a deal with YN to behave during the day if they can play/flirt with YN between Sun and Moon hours. This goes on and we find out YN has feelings for their VERY GOOD PLATONIC ROBOT FRIENDS sun and moon and the flirting is not unwelcome(after a while) but it feels like cheating a little. EVENTUALLY Sun and Moon find Eclipse in their headspace and threats are made, but 'YN LIKES IT' is brought up as a counter argument, so they 'try flirting as well' and it's well recieved and... HONESTLY this is kind of a messy AU that needs more developement BUT there ya go

Canceled <- Mature/Explicit warning for the link on this one - Dark. Dark dark dark fic I am not even sure I will be publishing if I manage to write it. 95% angst dark. Violent. Dark bad dark. Sun and Moon are pushed to the point of merging as Eclipse, an AI with the ability to ignore certain protocols, making him exceedingly dangerous and spiteful towards the employees of the plex. YN picks up a job labeled as 'helping the daycare attendant', and unknowingly signs their life away in triplicate as a sacrificial lamb to try and get him under control. They thought this was going to be a normal daycare job, not this living hell. Things start looking up EVENTUALLY but… Not before some serious damage is done. Lots of ruined trust, lots of broken trust, and a whole lot of angst and shit that therapy ain't gonna buff out. Is it even possible to salvage what's happened here? Fuck if I know yet. (Horribly dark. Very violent. Lots of bad feels. The idea is rolling in my head like an intrusive thought I want to unleash but I genuinely don't know if I will cause I'm leaning against it and I don't want people to look at me weird lmao.)

WIP - there's still more AUs that need to get added but OML just focusing the big guns with content (and doordash cause I love that one and TECHNICALLY it has writing for it!)

Hey all, you know how internet searches suck now? When the results are awful, full-of-AI, death-of-the-internet levels of bad?

Start appending date constraints to your searches - "before:2023".

My results have gone from 90% AI bullshit to ~60% usable - which frankly at this point is a huge improvement.

historical drama/sitcom where two gay best friends (woman and man) get lavender married--and proceed to spend the Fancy European Honeymoon their parents paid for acting as each other's wingman

I’m actually kind of amazed how many people do not understand this concept

[mooseymi]

It's a complicated relationship.

I just love love love that there’s a guy wandering about Dungeon Meshi going, ‘but what are the socioeconomic and geopolitical consequences of this fantasy quest adventure, both while it’s ongoing and after its inevitable completion?! The skillset required to find and kill a Mad Mage is different than that required to responsibly, benevolently and effectively rule a kingdom. I personally must either find a good candidate, somehow make one, or, most likely, take on the whole Mageslayer/King role myself.” Except he doesn’t have the first skillset, and his whole party keeps dying while these highly competent chucklefucks wander past, kill and eat the monster, and save their bodies for the nth time. Kabru would demand to know if Aragorn is familiar with Gondorin tax law. His isekai energy is off the charts, because this is all exactly what I would do if dropped into a fantasy quest adventure, right down to repeatedly dying due to not actually being suited to the genre conventions.

Please someone redraw this with Dr. Ratio and Aventurine because this is the exact vibe they have in my head post-Penacony.

Out Date

Set in a world with Detroit: Become Human vibes (i've only seen like the first third of the game aaa i need to actually sit down for a full playthrough) Bots can be bought as general helpers, assistants, and aids of varying degrees. Many are very straight forwards, but for some, the AI has advanced, reached a level that is similar to human. Visual designs vary from something stylizes like the DCA boys, or something very nearly human. People are divided on what's more 'comfortable' to work with, so they all exist. Sun and Moon (same body) start their journey at the equivalent of a dog shelter for problem bots. They've been returned time and time again, and passed through many questionable hands, each time coming back a little more off kilter than the last. Questions aren't asked beyond what was wrong with them, a damaged component or physical damage, or a behavioral AI problem, and they're patched up if needed and put back into holding until the next new owner decides to roll the dice with them. Enter YN. They work the reception desk, and often help new clients find a bot that fits both their needs and budget. It's not a fancy establishment, and their clientele aren't always the most savory. Still, they're familiar with the fact Sun has come back more than a couple times. Odd cause while they're here they're always pretty cooperative, and even gently joke around when YN has to go check on them, or tell them they're out again. Though there's a marked note on their file now. An "Out Date". A gentle way of saying if they aren't picked up and gone by then, they're scrapped. Killed. The date's coming up too, and the likelihood of them getting bought is getting less and less. YN Caves. They can't technically afford a bot, the pay from their desk job covering housing and basic bills with just a little leftover for emergencies, but they did the thing you aren't supposed to do. They got attached. They haggle and barter and eventually work the boss man down to something they can justify stretching themself thin for, and they get to give him the good news. News he's less than thrilled about. YN can't blame him, they know he's been through a lot so they can't fault him for being wary. Even more so once the two end up home. YN does not take care of themself. Or their house. It is an absolute mess. Sun is, frankly, appalled. NOW. YN knows the place is a mess. They aren't oblivious to it. It's the one thing that maybe might be worth having a helping hand around. Not that Sun HAS to do anything. They didn't buy him to make him a housemaid, after all. But he's off to cleaning before he even says a word. The anxiety spikes because OH NO, THATS YOUR MESS TO CLEAN UP. Having them around would have been a motivator to DO something about it, not make them clean it up. The first conflict comes when YN tries to stop Sun from picking things up. The whip around from his head, both in shock and just... at the state of this place, is enough to make YN flinch. Hard. There's a stutter in his expression, but he insists on cleaning. So YN tries to help. In the sense that the entire situation has turned into something horribly humiliating, that an adult can't manage to take care of their own place like this. Eventually they fade out of sight, trying to clean in a different room while Sun focuses the kitchen. They go to the livingroom, too close, one of the bathrooms and can still hear him moving dishes, eventually they wander back to the bedroom and try to pick up some laundry and old takeout that made it's way back there... Still no dice. But it's the farthest from the activity out in the rest of the house that they can at least hide. Hours pass and night falls. The cleaning eventually stops. It takes a bit for YN to realize they can't hear the cleaning anymore, but when they do, curiosity gets the best of them.

best thing about batman is that he's a superficially grimdark character, gothic & brooding & angst ridden etc..........but then it turns out he has a million hobbies, regularly goes on adventures with his besties, and has a dozen adopted kids he's raising with his devoted foster dad. good for him
