#Sun Things Are Better AU

[crabsnpersimmons]

day [redacted] of ignoring my laundry so i can do literally anything else

featuring my friend @vacantfields' android Sun from their "Things Are Better" AU!

really enjoyed drawing this one. my one feedback is to thumbnail the colour palette ahead of time. it's a little too yellow that it lacks contrast and variety. but that's just a me thing, colour is often an afterthought for me 😅 actually second feedback, look up references for ankle socks, man, what are those??

as punishment for those "socks" i'm gonna go fold my laundry now

Have you ever wondered how the boys looked before the android bodies they got? they used to share a body, a mind, everything Eclipse wasnt here during that time as he was made a few years later

Sun and Moon might have gained more freedom but to them it is just the cage that got bigger

Have a late valentines gift from the automaton au guys♡ they love you

A certain development in Asylum AU happening in Canon Universe...

...translation?

I want to write something funny for Jack and Dazzle unintentionally creating a certain... Problem... For Solar; courtesy of Dark Sun.

(Happens right around Christmas time so... Jack gets to be home for Christmas this year)

(Warning for some VERY suggestive themes)

-Jack was at home by himself for a while. Everyone else had gone out Christmas shopping. Nobody was supposed to be in the house. So he was just watching a Cartoon show and mulling over some various holiday plans.

-Unexpectedly, Sun comes back early and very quickly greets Jack before saying he forgot something in the house.

-Jack stares...

-Before following 'Sun' around the house.

-He seems strangely interested in Solars room and tries to set up some sort of well concealed scanning device.

-But stops realizing that Jack is watching him.

Dark Sun: ...

Jack: You're not our Sun.

Dark Sun: (Sighs and begins very subtly begins activating a device to incapacitate Jack) No... I'm not.

Jack: Why are you in my dad's room?

Dark Sun: Oh just setting up a scanner to check something about your fathers new body... To see if it would be compatible... Nothing dangerous, just a curiosity.

Jack: Wouldn't his blueprints be more useful for that?

Dark Sun: (Pauses) Actually yes... Are you offering to get them for me?

Jack: You're a Sun, so it's not like you're a bad person. I could get you his blueprints. I know where they are... But...

Dark Sun: Yes?

Jack: Dad says that it's only fair that if somebody's done something nice for you, you do something nice for them... Could you help me?

Dark Sun: And what would you need help with exactly?

Jack: (Disappears for a second, before reappearing with what looks like an ad from a magazine) I wanted to get these for Dazzle! The 'Fairytale Princess Plushies' only they're all sold out and father says I'm not allowed to shank anybody for them... Can you get me them to give to Dazzle for Christmas?

Dark Sun: (Smiles... And it seems almost genuine) If you get me his blueprints, I will get these plushies for your friend for Christmas.

Jack: Yay!! (Disappeared for a bit before coming back with the Blueprints for Solars new body)

Dark Sun pat his head and assured him that the gift for Dazzle would arrive in time for Christmas...

...

(...About a week later...)

Dazzle was sitting quietly in the living room eating a PB&J sandwich as 'Sun' walked quietly past her, saying nothing but waving... Trying to just go up the stairs to-

Dazzle: Are you the other Sun?

Dark Sun: ...you know I am just going to give up trying to be sneaky about this, yes I am a different Sun than yours...

Dazzle: Why are you in our house?

Dark Sun: Oh just... Trying to figure out when Solar would be here alone. Nothing important...

Dazzle: Why don't you just call?

Dark Sun: (Very mild sarcasm) I don't have the number.

Dazzle: Oh... Would you like it if I just called you? So you can have a playdate with Mr. Solar?

Dark Sun: ...actually that would be very helpful...

Dazzle: (Fidgets a little)

Dark Sun: ...and what would you like in return?

Dazzle: (Pulls out a folded up picture from the pocket of her overalls) I wanted to get Jack the Dark Heroes Action Figures for Christmas, but I haven't saved enough money for them... Can you get them for Jack please?

Dark Sun: (Smiles, for real) This is the most adorable sellout that's ever happened.

Dazzle: ?

Dark Sun: If you just give me a little call for that... Playdate... I promise you that I will get your friend these toys for Christmas.

Dazzle: (Giggles) Thank you Mr. Other Sun.

Dark Sun: No, thank you sweetie. Thank you very much

...

The day came when Solar was indeed, alone in the house. Working on several of his own projects and his mind busy... Trying not to think of the more unpleasant things that have befallen the family in most recent times.

Until Sun calls him downstairs. Where he's lounging on the couch and asks Solar to join him... And he's holding not wine, but a bottle of Solars favorite alcohol. Crown Royal Whiskey.

Sun pours Solar a glass and they just start chatting. But over time and discussions of stress, gradually they depleted the entire bottle...

...and BAD DECISIONS were made...

Solar only realized what happened come the next morning when he sobered up... And found Dark Sun laying next to him, seemingly quite content with everything that had undoubtedly happened.

Dark Sun: You were a satisfactory partner. If this brings about an equally satisfactory result, I might seek you out again.

Solar: Did... We just...?

Dark Sun: I was under the impression you were a smart one... Also yes, not to mention that you were far more than willing throughout this entire session. If you hadn't been, nothing would have occurred.

Solar: Why...?

Dark Sun: Because your intelligence is appealing. Your personality isn't grating and your physical appearance is symmetrical and pleasing.

Solar: ...are you saying you find me... Attractive...?

Dark Sun: I said that you are satisfactory.

Solar didn't exactly get the chance to question what had just happened any more, because Dark Sun merely stretched and proceeded to leave through a portal he randomly opened in the room...

...well...

...After everything Solar WAS going to make him breakfast, but apparently that wasn't happening...

...

Christmas Day...

The family was all gathered around the large Christmas Tree that had been set up in the living room. Presents had been placed under the tree and Sun had made some wonderful treats for everyone to enjoy... And some spiced eggnog for the adults... Much of which Solar had been hitting kinda hard due to the troubling events he'd been through.

But amidst all of the familiar presents that were under the tree, there were two particularly large boxes that nobody could remember placing there... The boxes were wrapped in a beautiful, shimmering golden paper and topped with large black bows adorned in glitter that made one think about a starry night sky when the light caught it just right.

One box addressed to Jack, the other to Dazzle...

The kids opened the boxes up and there were immediately happy squeals of joy as Dazzle pulled out a set of beautiful plushies, while Jack now held multiple action figures that he clearly wanted quite badly...

Two cards that had been attached to the boxes fluttered between the kids. Merely stating 'To Dazzle from Jack' and 'To Jack from Dazzle.' which got the two best friends to hug and thank each other for the wonderful presents.

While the back of those cards bore a black colored Sun insignia that all of the adults could see...

Solar: (Looking a little deranged at this point...)

...I think they pimped me out for toys...

Fun times with your caretakers:

Not so fun times:

[justdrawlynn11]

You know what- imma just make the poll-

Note: Every option has an explanation. If you want, read them under the poll before voting-

Okay time to explain:

Moonstone:

He would work as the Phantom in the sense of his obsession with Sun, who’s Christine because yes, and his common depictions of having wings or being an angel on my blog, fitting into the title of “The Angel of Music” pretty well. He’d obsess with Sun being kind and wanting to keep that forever, no matter what. Him using love potions, the other thing about feeling like nobody will ever love him. A few other things are there too but those aren’t as easy to explain.

He would work well as Raoul, Christine’s childhood friend, because he’s known Sun their entire lives. He works with Bryce trying to hunt down Eclipse, something that could be mirrored in the au very well with Raoul trying to get the Phantom arrested for murder(that the Phantom did and got away with for some time-). Also it would make Sun x Moon the endgame ship of the au.

Eclipse:

He’d work well as the Phantom due to the fact that he’s committed multiple war crimes before Sun and Moon were even CREATED in canon, the original Phantom being a killer matching up there. I also personally think that Eclipse would fit better in a mentor role for Sun than Moon would be. Also Eclipse(in canon from MaSm) is at least a BIT older than Sun and Moon-

He’d also be a good Raoul because he’s more financially sound than Moon, and he has helped Sun try to somewhat escape Moon/the plex’s harmful treatment before in canon. Also it’d make Sun x Eclipse the endgame ship of the au.

Roxy:

I don’t think she’d fit as the Phantom in the au so it’s not an option-

She’d be good in a Raoul role from the fact that she’s one of the ‘nicer’ animatronics to Sun. Sun’s shown her romantic interest and Moon has gotten dangerously jealous of her before. Also just trying to give her some more love here, barely see anything involving her compared to these guys. Choosing her would make Sun x Roxy the endgame ship of the au.

(Note: MaSm Sun and Moon are NOT related)

Sun constantly trying to do his best in a job he cares a lot about but was never really equipped in is one of my favorite parts of him

How would Sun from your have you eaten au feel about hugs? He seems like he's so reserved and you mentioned that because he knows he's a robot he isn't very indulgent

But would he like hugs? Or could he warm up to them eventually?

(was chatting with @inkydoughnut the other day and i realized i never posted this comic woops 😂)

well well! Sun is no stranger to hugs! he doesn't usually initiate hugs, but he's used to receiving them from when he was a daycare attendant. he's never really learned when is a good time to pull back tho, so he often stays put until you pull back first:

Eclipse: Sun, we have dishes to wash.

Sun: You have 4 hands. And Moon.

[basilbots]

I haven’t watched all the latest ep yet because. Vacation but if they kill NM or merge him to bring OM back I will go back and rewrite Moon’s reset into the sillies AU (because so far I haven’t had a separation between Old n New Moon yet) out of spite

[vacantfields]

Had a couple of trick or treaters in my inbox so have this!!! [ @crabsnpersimmons yours was so cute with the little crab so JKSGHSKJH ] Sun is a Puppy and Moon is a Bunny :] HAPPYYYY HALLOWEEENNNN (just in case i dont get to draw something for it LMAO)

[empty-blog-for-lurking]

My vld time travel au is really just- Beautiful morally grey women, who have close but concerning platonic relationship with Lance, and want Lotor dead/trying to violently murder him, not out of malice or vengeance or anything personal but simply because of pragmatic "it's for the greater good" reasons and they are sorta?? Right about it

[Solar Eclipse]

[There are downsides to linking yourself to the celestial bodies in your universe.]

[starheirxero]

LOOK. listen. listen okay I have a really good fic idea.

Lord Eclipse having capitalized pronouns, yea? yea? n Servant Sun gets freed from Lord Eclipse's dimension somehow but whenever he talks about Him, it's still capitalized. And it stays that way for a long time, representing how Servant Sun feels about himself, about Lord Eclipse, and maybe even other characters at times.

Thus, I think after a long slow burn recovery arc, I think it would be a massively important thing to eventually use a regular, lowercase "he" when he talks of Lord Eclipse to show that he doesn't care anymore, to show that he has lost any shred of respect that remained, to show he is getting better. andthen yay celestial family new addition time !! ^_^
