#can you tell I mostly write aus?

[thatshadowgastwhore]

Aight I kind of have motivation to write again what should I work on?

[theoldspark]

My IDW au in a nutshell

IDW au where Optimus ends up in the Lost Light and gets his own life changing adventure.

IDW au post-canon where Optimus learns to see himself as more than a sacrifice for the freedom and peace of others.

IDW au where Optimus and Rodimus actually get to become close friends and bond over their similarities.

IDW au where people appreciate Optimus and aren't afraid to show they care about him as their friend.

IDW au where Optimus gets to retire and gets his happy ending without needing to die.

Additional to previous point, IDW au where Optimus suicidal tendencies get properly addressed and he starts to heal and learns to prioritize his needs.

IDW au where Megop gets an eventual happy ending (after a tedious slow-burn because four million years of pinning wasn't enough for them).

IDW au where the LL still gets to have silly adventures and nobody dies (except for the people who are already dead).

IDW au where characters get to reflect, learn and grow together because Op is not the only one fucked up in the group.

IDW au where I push every character to have deep conversations despite their stubbornness to avoid too serious emotions.

In short:

Just an AU where Optimus gets to be genuinely happy for once because I really need it and I can't take the tragedy that is canon anymore.

[spacebar2]

A variety of sketches

(Characters, not creators.)

[bctoastyyy]

[theokusgallery]

I hate that I have reoccurring themes in everything I make. YES this guy has a complex over the fact that everyone prefers his sibling AGAIN. YES he was ostracized by his peers since he was in primary school and never knew why until years later. URGH

[crimeronan]

opened up some original fiction notes i fully forgot making six months ago, which are about what sol is about to do to this minor antagonist, and audibly murmured, "oh, jesus Fucking christ."

[halfling-myth-lady]

Any Juleka content for your rewrite?

Of course!!!!

Actually, I’d consider her one of the most interesting characters in the rewrite.

I won’t give any summary, but I will give you a Drabble that more or less explains what her motivations are and will probably tell you what her place in the au is lol

Also pls ask abt this au I need reason to write about this au more.i swear it’s good.i think.

Anyways,let’s get on with this!!

—

Chapter one:A girl called Juleka.

Warning:the story is told in achronological order.technically at the time THIS ficlet would be released it would be around early season 3, though for the sake of the story we will be starting here.

The tiny panjas bracelet sat in Juleka’s hand, black chains wrapping around her fingers and the tiny jewel in the middle staring back at her. She’d gotten it at a yard sale two days ago.

She carefully put it on, intently staring at the empty space in front of her for a few seconds before Roaar materialized in front of her.

As soon as she was noticed, Roaar chuckled.

“Why, look at that! have you made up your mind already?its only been a few hours since my offer, Cub” the creature mused.

“It wasn't hard. All i needed to do was…think”

And think she did.

She thought of Luka. One of the most compassionate and kind people she ever knew, turned into a villain who took away the voices of those he deemed unworthy of them.

She thought of her mother. The most headstrong and amazing woman she could think of, turned into a villain who imprisoned her own children in her ship with chains of steel.

She thought of her father. A man who always found a way to sneak out of her public eye and back to his family whenever he could, turned into a villain who attempted to murder a fellow music phenomenon(no matter how much of an asshole he might be).

She thought about everyone… Rose, Nathaniel, Chloe, Bustier, Max, Kim, alix, Sabrina, Ivan…

… And herself.

She thought about being Reflecta.

About having her autonomy stripped from her by that bastard in a butterfly costume.

About how the moment she disobeyed he took control of her body and forced her to get those stupid pieces of jewelry.

about getting out of that control, and remembering every single thing afterwards.

“You said that as long as i have you with me, he can’t take any kind of control over me. No Akumayizations or anything.”

“Yep!he can’t even touch you”

“And you can give me powers equal to the other heroes…”

“Of course,Cub!”She said, eyes glowing”all you gotta do to access them is say “Roaar, Stripes on!” and you’ll be able to have your abilities with no drawbacks or anything”

Roaar grinned, eyes staring holes into the girl in front of her and razor sharp teeth probably capable of maul through even a turtle’s shell coming into sight.

“What do you say,Couffaine?”

… Juleka cackled.

“I say…we have a butterfly to kill. Roaar,stripes on!”

[verdantglow]

Fuck it, time to be loudly cringe & find my 30 weirdos.

Trafficstuck AU

Because even 12 years after starting Homestuck, I still found myself in bed one night, trying to sleep, but unable to because all I could think about was Griann <> Gudtym Wiscar.

(I’ve got so much figured out for this AU that I don’t know how to share. Please send me asks about your fave/anything you’re curious about so that I can have some direction for this lore vomit!)

[dreamsy990]

my laptops like super fucking dead and its gonna be a couple days before i can get a new one so uh. have a ghost roxas au doodle from procreate instead. returning to my roots i suppose. do not ask me to explain the story context for this or whats going on because i will not explain ok. you can figure it out yourself <-( theres absolutely not enough information for you to figure it out for yourself )

[good--merits-accumulated]

i fear i am endlessly predictable (writing new dps au which is once again fantasy with Arthurian elements)

[lmaster37]

if you can, i highly encourage you to interact with fan artists of all formats, including fic authors, because even apart from that being really really nice for the artists, it's also good for you on a personal/selfish level !! it's a win-win situation !!

because let me tell you, there's a rush like no other when you finally get your shit together and comment on a fic that you've been rereading for years and the author responds (!) and tells you "That is an incredibly high compliment" (!!) and gives you a bit of insight into how they conceptualise the character (!!!) . like. oh my god i'm doing it i'm getting a good grade in Fandom

(engaging with fan art of all formats will also greatly increase fan artists' energy + desire to continue doing fan art, which, again, win-win situation !!)

hand on my stupid heart flashbacks

this is a No One Knows AU & Full Hazmat AU where Danny ended up in the Ghost Zone & didn't go back into the human world initially because he thought he was dead. by the time he realized he is, in fact, at least half alive, he'd already been missing for at least 2 weeks. will probs never finish homsh sorry. i wrote this a couple years ago in a haze & just haven't been able to finish it because i can't replicate the style, which i find is what i love about this fic the most. it wouldn't be the same without it. posting the flashback introsーwhich are meant to be read between chapters/the actual plot, starting after chapter 1ーcuz fuck it. excuse typos & shit, i never properly edited it, as i forgot it existed immediately after i wrote it original description of homsh: Danny Fenton has officially been missing for over a year. Maddie & Jack Fenton refuse to give up on their son. Sick and tired of the police running them in circles, and the case getting colder by the day, the Fentons turn to their last resortーPhantom. 800~ words (full unfinished fic is 20k~)

-

When Danny woke up surrounded by thick, green fog, and couldn’t breathe without swallowing heavy air that was more like water than anything, he was sure he was dead. The portal glowed behind him, illuminating the pitch darkness around him in soft, yellow, warm light.

He almost went back.

Almost.

He was dead. His parents were ghost hunters. They had drilled into his head from the moment he was born that he could never, ever panic in death. That he would accept it. That he would not be scared. So he would be prepared to be brave in the face of death and would not become a ghost.

He panicked. He did not accept it. He was terrified. And so he woke up in the Ghost Zone.

-

Danny went back through the portal when he saw some ectopuses acting… strange. Like they had an idea in their heads. Like they had a plan.

Which was weird, with animal ghosts. He had only been in the Ghost Zoneーmom and dad called it that, he rememberedーfor a couple weeks. Or, he had already been there for two weeks. Or maybe time worked differently and he was there five minutes, or four years orー

The ectopuses went through the portal and, despite everything, Danny went after them.

While he was busy reeling at being home, the ectopuses immediately attacked dad. Danny was horrified. Jack was overwhelmed. Danny stepped in, in a moment fueled by sheer adrenaline and stupidity, snatching a Fenton Thermos™ off a shelf and releasing his shaky invisibility. The ectopuses didn’t stand a chance. And when they were safely in the Thermos, he slowly turned around to dad, ready for the confrontation. Ready for the “what happened to you?” and the “where have you been?” and the “we’ve missed you”.

Dad scrambled to shoot at him.

Danny fled.

His parents didn’t recognize him.

-

The Lunch Lady attacked when Danny was mourning Halloween.

He’d waited all year. He made a costume that summer. He wouldn’t get to go trick or treating with Sam and Tucker this year. Or any year. For the rest of his lifeーor existence. Whatever.

The Lunch Lady appeared in the school and demanded in straight fury, “Who changed the menu?”

Everyone pointed at Sam.

Danny hadn’t known just how powerful ghosts could be. His parents never told him the specifics. Just that they were dangerous.

This ghost grew and her aura hit him like a hurricane, almost physically pushing him back. It was so strong that the students in the Casper High cafeteria seemed to feel it too.

The Lunch Lady was a much harder opponent than the ectopuses. She levitated meat. She used it as a weapon, and seemed to bring it back to life. She created weird meat creatures that grew sharp teeth and claws out of bones. They were mindless, attacking everything that got too close to the ghost. Danny would have run away without hesitation, if Sam hadn’t been in the crossfire.

Danny fought the Lunch Lady. It was a long struggle, but he caught her in the thermos after over an hour. When he turned to Sam and Tuckerーboth of whom he had to save due to Tucker trying to jump into the fightーall three of them bloody and bruised, he cringed. But a part of him hoped. Desperately.

Surely they would know him on sight.

“Wh-what are you?” Sam gasped at him finally.

Danny flinched as if she had struck him. “J-just… your friendly neighbourhood phantom.”

-

Danny didn’t know what possessed him. Oh. Pun not intended.

He just barely caught the Fentons leaving in the GAV, dragging suitcases behind them. He couldn’t help himself. What on Earth were they doing?

They were going to Vlad Master’s mansion for their college reunion.

It was a whole thing. But something was off. Besides all the adults reminiscing about the 80’s.

Danny sensed ghosts immediately but he couldn’t see anything. Unfortunately for him, Vlad could also sense him. It was two days of Danny staying invisible, and Vladーthe halfa? Is that what Danny is?ーtrying to kill Jack. Somehow, Danny managed to fight off Vlad, not turn back, and without the Fentons getting hurt. His secret intact.

VladーPlasmius, also learned about Phantom. And Vlad hated him. The manーghostーwhatever, seemed to only care about one thingーpossession. Of money. Of things. Of people. He was more ghost than Danny had ever seen. Vlad’s obsession was overwhelming.

Danny couldn’t believe someone so much like himself could be so disturbing.

Trans girl Kazuichi x trans boy Gundham

and then Gundham had to get Kazuichi to pull over (I mean they weren't driving that fast and it was the middle of nowhere but you get the idea).

the car is a Datsun 510.

[bernardellinewsagency]

I keep completely forgetting I have a Trigun/Supernatural AU so here it is. Yeehaw.

I made so much lore for this. By that I mean I made an entire backstory for putting monsters and hunters in the world, and created explanations for Heaven and Hell and Purgatory!!

It still takes place on No Man's Land, formally known as the planet Eremus (which I took from Latin words meaning waste, desert). This part somewhat follows the normal plot- humanity fucked up Earth and fled to the stars, but they safely land and restart civilization. It's just that now, new planets come with new deities, and five fledgling gods are created from the remains of faith carried by the star-faring settlers.

Chronica and Domina, time and space, naturally fit into the roles of the eldest, despite the five being all created at the same time. Tesla, energy in all of its forms, gets the role of middle sibling if only because she maintains the position that the other two are more like younger siblings with how they act. Those two being Vash and Nai, of course, humanity and all its hope for the future.

The five are found by a human woman, and though she feels wholly unprepared, Rem Saverem takes them in and attempts to raise them the best she can. She knows that she will live only a fraction of their lifespan, but she provides shelter and teachings regardless. It doesn't matter to her that they may forget her in time; all that matters is what she does now, that she loves them as much as she can in the time they have together.

She's not prepared for one of them to die before her, yet it happens, Tesla is killed by humans after attempting to help them. In his grief, Nai blames Rem, and the three that remain cannot stop him from killing her. All they can do is act after that sin had already been committed.

First: souls which pass on Eremus weren't exactly going anywhere. The Heaven and Hell of Earth were stuck to the planet and the faiths of its people- Eremus has no such initial standing, and such creations take time to form. Second: Vash is the weakest of the gods. His power alone couldn't harm Nai. Unless, that is, he uses all of his power as well as the power of most of the lingering dead souls of Eremus. Vash succeeds in draining all of his power to seal Nai away along with the souls in what would become a new version of Hell, and he falls in return, doomed to wander the world as a human. Immortal, but human, and without memories of his time as a deity.

Down to only two, Chronica and Domina have to deal with the issue of Tesla's not quite dead body. She's a god, after all. They're hard to completely kill. They seal her away between realms, and this in-between would become Purgatory, as the residue from her being would seep back onto Eremus, contaminating humans and turning them into monsters. The two then take the remaining souls on Eremus and create Heaven, closing themselves off from humanity and only tending to the dead.

With Tesla now creating monsters, hunters begin to be created as humanity's natural defense. They're a secretive side of society, protecting others from having to know about what lurks out in the darkness. There's a handful of them that are important for this story; Chapel Evergreen, Roberto de Niro, William Conrad, and Rosa Jeneora. All for very different reasons, of course. Rosa owns the hunter frequented bar Jeneora Rock, Roberto is a well known member of the community, and Conrad... he's known for going off the deep end, experimenting on monsters and humans alike.

To be fair to him, that's not entirely his fault. He's partially being led by the guidance of one Legato Bluesummers, a human who is able to hear the whispers of Nai as he slumbers within Hell. The true Nai, not the vessel who walks on Eremus with only the faintest sliver of his power but the Nai who has created all demons from the souls imprisoned with him. Legato is a prophet, yet not for anything good, he is devoted to bringing back his Lord and following whatever he says.

In fact, Legato's actions happen to include things like feeding various children demon's blood! Like Azazel in canon with Sam. And one of these children is Livio :) But just like in canon, his parents walk in on this happening, and Legato covers his tracks by setting the house ablaze. Livio is the only survivor, and with no other family to take him in and law enforcement unable to figure out what happened, he's brought to the Hopeland Orphanage, where he meets Nicholas Wolfwood.

When Livio is six, another visit from Legato is in order, to see how much progress he's making. And he's not caught this time, but he burns down the orphanage as part of a bigger plan of his. It works: Chapel Evergreen arrives to investigate the fire. This is how he meets Nicholas and decides to train the tenacious young boy as a hunter, and Livio as well once it becomes clear that not only will Nicholas not leave his younger brother behind, but that something is off about him.

Their lives from that point on are far from the best. Especially when one day, Nicholas fucks up while on a hunt with Chapel, and Livio gets hurt. He feels so guilty about it, he apologizes over and over, he promises to be better, to train harder and do all that he can so this won't happen again. It's not good enough. Chapel drags him over to Conrad and gives him simple instructions. "Make him better." The serum is some combination of monster blood and other bullshit, not meant to be consumed by humans, but Conrad is smart. He follows orders, and he makes Nicholas stronger, faster, better.

See, Conrad is good at this because he has a test subject. A girl by the name of Elendira. He's doing mostly the same thing that Legato is doing, but attempting to have more finesse than giving blood to random babies and hoping it works. It's not great. She's in constant pain, as somewhat of something halfway between human and demon. Don't worry: eventually she gets to kill Conrad because of hearing from Nai that if she does, he could make her a full demon and ease her pain, and after that she gets to spend her time trying to convince Livio to drink demon blood and accept his powers and uh, unseal Nai so he can escape from Hell. Don't worry about how she's taking Ruby's role.

Also, funny bit, Livio doesn't know that Conrad did anything to Nicholas until he meets Elendira and she says he should be thanking her for killing him because of what he did to his brother :)

There's also stuff like the Peacemaker being a gun that can kill demons, created by Frank Marlon and currently wielded by Vash as he wanders, and Meryl and Milly being FBI agents who learn about hunters and join their world! I'd love to write for this au but I dunno if I'd ever write anything beyond little snippets of ideas in my notes for this. But if anyone ever would wanna use this... :D hehe please feel to go wild with this.

[lady-lilly-gray]

also who's going to commit suicide? because you don't just drop a bomb like 105 and expect me to NOT think it's some kind of foreshadowing

[gravitywonagain]

okay okay, modern au crossover where the wens nominate single father and certified disaster bi wei wuxian for queer eye
