#infected!au

For the Infected!AU, we have a few choices for platonic yandere/s. I've mentioned how different mutations will influence how the infection affects the mutant/human/being. For now, I want to explore how it affects the feral mutants, and how the bby reacts (plus possible mutations for the bby). And the thing is, the bby has backstory with their yandere/s. So, the infected's previous life and relationships can influence them, even after the infection has taken effect and obscured their past memories into a haze of blurred emotions and fragmented thoughts. For now, we will discuss some possible mutant variants of bby.

Possible mutations for their bby include, but aren't limited to:

Harpy!bby: they have a small pair of functioning wings, sharp talons akin to Sabretooth, and act a little feral. Acts like a bird sometimes, collects shiny stuff and rocks and bones. Their wings fluff up when they are highly anxious or scared, and they remind the platonic yan of a baby bird trying to look threatening. Has seen some sh*t, and lived to tell the tale. Can swallow food almost whole, inhaling it quickly as though it will disappear into thin air. Some nicknames for them given by the platonic yanderes (the feral, or anyone you want to imagine) include: fledgling, chick, hatchling, nestling, birdie, Tweetie

Empath!bby: a bby who can feel the emotions of those around them, and possible branch-offs of their mutation could include things like sharing memories between themself and another person, influencing emotions based on their current feelings and mood, feeling someone else's pain and letting someone feel their's, etc.. Very loving and warm, wants hugs all the time, spends a lot of energy trying to help who they can. Possible nickname for them given by their platonic yandere/s (feral or otherwise) include: bleeding heart, sweet stuff, love,

Pyrokinesis!bby: a bby who could be anything from a walking ember (pretty much can warm up like a heated stone), disco-inferno where they can set themself on fire or become a fire being (can be any color of flame, and might look like a light show), flame thrower (where they can generate flames and aim them at enemies), or any other flame ability. Maybe they can even start fires! They are passionate, enjoy marshmallows, and survived by cooking or boiling anything they consumed. Nicknames for this bby given by the platonic yan/s (feral, otherwise, or something else) include: Hot Stuff, Flaming Hot, Lava Lamp, ember, little light

Eldritch!bby: a bby who is a bit... unsettling. Perhaps their teeth are too sharp or too many. Maybe they have tentacles or whisps or limbs sprouting from their back. They could have multiple eyes, a larger and mind-warping form, hypnotic abilities, or anything that fits something eldritch and unimaginable. They love sea food, water, and nighttime. Can be cranky if they haven't slept for over 36 hours. Nicknames the yans could give them include: squid, H. P. Lovecraft, moon eyes, favorite (kid, friend, sibling, elder god)

GemBody!bby: like Emma Frost, they can become a living, breathing organic gem person. Perhaps they are opaque; or marbled; maybe they are two-toned; color-changing; they could look like any gem imaginable, from bumblebee jasper to obsidian to ametrine to amber to agate to any type, really. Maybe they have sharp crystals sprouting off of them in that form. Or perhaps they can find gemstones in the wild. Mayhaps they even can consume rocks in that form, and turn those rocks into gems. This bby is the sort to hit someone too hard, and apologize profusely... even if that person was someone who they were just fighting with. Keeps band-aids on hand, as well as water. Nicknames for this bby from the platonic yan/s can include: jewel, gem, diamond in the rough, gold-heart, geode

There are many other mutations that the bby could have in this au, or any others. But for now, we have these options to satisfy our craving for choices. These were some honeycomb thoughts on different mutant!bby variants!

HORSE ALERT ⁉️⁉️⁉️🤯🤯🤯

It's been two weeks since Applejack's family fled alongside the other ponies of Ponyville. She's been roaming the acreage for three days on end and she currently has only one good leg left for bucking.

Rainbow Dash may have been the first of the mane six to be infected as her need for speed was core to her personality. As a result, little moments of impatience or rushing ponies went unnoticed. Rainbow was diagnosed despite her denial during her back-to-back racing episodes.

Fluttershy has reclused herself within the Everfree Forest to tend to maximize her caretaking. She has succumbed to her Timberwolf injuries.

Rarity has become a shut-in and uses her artistic expression to cope. Her memories of her friends have been replaced with nonsensical sewing bursts which will inevitably be thrown into the pile of duds. Ponyville is roughly 80% evacuated at this point in time.

Pinkie Pie has to withstand the smell of Mr. and Mrs. Cakes as she dances once again for a fourth night. The couple has passed ever since Pinkie started showing symptoms. No pony is left to intervene.

I doodled this back during the peak of the mlp infection trend. Instead of zombies they just turn into normal horses. More of a psychological horror approach!

It's been quite a while since I last wrote something on tumblr, but I thought I'd post the character sheets in my mlp infection and here, in a whole bunch!! 🌈

I've mentioned in my description I like dark alternate universes. Well, I've had a few ideas for possible platonic yandere Marvel AUs that are a bit darker, or unsettling, to say the least. Some might make sense. Some might be a bit more of a platonic kink. And, well, strange and unique are right up Marvel's alley! My first one is:

• An Infected!AU. This one I have mulled over for a while, wondering how to improve on the idea. I've mainly imagined it with X-Men characters, since they include some of my favorite Marvel characters, as well as provide many options for different Infected!AU ideas to come to light. The Infected!AU has a virus that is similar to if you combined a vampire, a zombie, and a hivemind. Those infected aren't dead, but consume flesh and blood for sustenance; can spread the infection by biting a victim, similar to a zombie; contain a venom in their canines like a vampire, but it won't turn a victim, it works similar to a sedative; the ability to sometimes put someone under their thrall, depending on their mutation; pure black eyes (or at least enlarged pupils); the ability to form a group/horde/pack, which seems to be able to communicate without speaking outloud or using sign language; and those who are feral mutants will have some more animalistic tendencies.

• This doesn't even begin to mention the bby. So, for this, I've imagined a few different mutant bby! variants. But the one I'll use for right now is harpy!Reader. They have wings similar to Angel (a.k.a. Warren Worthington the Third), as well as talons akin to Sabretooth (a.k.a. Victor Creed). Harpy!bby is a feral mutant, to some degree. They survived the beginning of the virus and the fall of civilization partly due to being able to fly away from danger, and migrate to better places. They knew some of the mutants before their world went to heck, probably helped them with things that required a bird eye view or the ability to spy on someone from afar, bird's eye view and all.

• For one reason or another, they aren't with anyone during the initial start of the virus, nor once civilization has collapsed. They have tried to help others, only for those very people to try to eat them or sacrifice them in hopes of the other survivors not being eaten. Thus, Reader gave up on joining any groups.

• Then, somehow, they end up captured. Scientists catch them in a weakened state, and drag them back to a large facility, with many levels and labs. These people inform Reader that they've captured what they could of the Infected, and that all they need is a test subject, so the scientists can find out what they can about the Infected, what their abilities are, if anyone is immune... without risking the scientists, of course... Reader is left with no choice but to comply... it is that, or risk being killed.

• Of course, once Reader is shoved into a darkened room/cell, they quickly discover that some old friends still seem to remember them... but aren't the same as they were...

• The platonic yanderes may be different, but they still love Reader...

• And probably have a few plans to keep their bby with them...

• Whether their bby agrees or not...

And these are the beginner thoughts for this au! I hope this honeycomb thought has given y'all a few ideas!

“Discord reveled in the outbreak at first. The chaos it brought to Ponyville was like something out of a dream to him! However, when Fluttershy was blinded by an acid-spitting varient and stranded outside of the city, he began to realize the sevarity. By this point the outbreak was too far gone for his magic to stop…”
