“It’s you.” | Arthur and Merlin | Gen | 135 Words | Last Unicorn AU

@merlinmicrofic

“Let the quest end here then.” Merlin spoke, almost lightly, though his face held only burdens. “Marry the prince and live happily ever after.”

“Yes,” the unicorn turned young woman answered. “That is my wish.”

But in the same moment Arthur said, “No.”

He put his hands out to her, and drew a step closer. She did not shy from him, instead taking the offered hands and holding his gaze until it was Arthur who looked away.

His gaze found Merlin’s, stern and knowing. “It’s you who knew better than I that the quest cannot end here. I’m a hero, nothing more. It’s only a trade, but heroes know about the order of things. Quests cannot simply be abandoned. Prophecies cannot be left unfulfilled. And happy endings cannot come in the middle of the story.”

At some point I wrote a Last Unicorn Dream AU with Roman, but was never able to finish. I wanted to make the King who had trapped all the unicorns in the ocean into Sam, and the Red Bull is instead his Creeper form that he turns into.

Sam has trapped the unicorns into the paintings/murals, where they hide among the acrylic foliage and brush strokes of the canvases. He's assumed himself as their Warden, "guarding" their innocence from the dangers of man's mortal realm. His Creeper form is a huge dogcat creature that has Claws and Fangs, and is very dangerous. He assumes a human form most of the time though, and only has features that are vaguely familiar to the Creeper form if you're looking.

I wanted to have Dream, now transformed into a human, with his entourage, find the castle/prison, and stay there overnight claiming needing a safe haven. Sam is very taken with Dream, even if Dreams existence is clouded by a depressed air from not being able to be in his true form.

In the night, they sneak around and spot the unicorns trying to hide in the paintings, and go through a puzzle to find the original canvas that transports one from the real world to the paintings in the mural.

Sam discovers them, and demands they leave, trident in hand, but Dream runs through the canvas, and Sam rushes after him, revealing both their true forms when the mural magic portrays them as who they are in their hearts.

Sam doesn't want to fight Dream, but Dream very much wants to fight him, and is able to cow the puppycat into submitting. The unicorns see one of their own defeat their jailer, and surge out of the murals and paintings in droves, through the canvas and out into the rising dawn.

Sam looks very sad and pathetic and lays there, upset that the most wonderful things in the world are now Outside and Not Safe From The Evils. Dream has a meaningful conversation about how you cannot hide away the innocent, and some other stuff that's very metaphorical but I don't have it in me right now.

The point is: Unicorns are now back in the world. Everyone is free to go home, and Dream takes his found family to their forest.

However, Sam, now staying in his big cat form, is following gingerly at a distance.

SNF go "pspsps, Dream. That creature is following us."

Dream doesn't even look back as he walks. "I know."

"We're just going to let him follow us home????"

"Yep."

And it takes a few weeks of settling into their home, but Sam slowly shuffles closer and closer into their little circle of territory, until he is Very Carefully scooting into Dreams side, eyes darting up repeatedly to make sure Dream isn't going to turn and get mad at him. Dream pretends not to notice as Sam presses their flanks together, and only flips his tail to curl around Sam's leg when Sam begins to purr

Sam had been Very Bad you see, trapping all the unicorns in the world. But!!!! But Dream. Dream is nice. And also a unicorn. So maybe a Sam can repent for his sins by protecting Dream. And also cuddle him. Very sound Sam logic.

Dream is as amoral as the Unicorn from the movie and doesn't really care about that. He just sees Sad Lonely Immortal Cat Creature and thinks 'Mine Now.'

Also I don't have any feasible explanation for what Sam is and why he can turn into a Person. Maybe he was a lonely puppycat who used a magical crown to become human, but he never lost his immortality, and so he once had a small kingdom that is decrepit now, the king outliving his subjects

The unicorns are the only companions he could have, that would live as long as him. But now he has New Friends, and they're immortal! And he can be his true self without need of the magic crown.

.... also if you want to be horny about it puppycat Sam absolutely fucks his Unicorn. Does what he thinks is a proper courting, playfights and rolls around in the meadow with Dream, until his brain gets goofy-horny and he is allowed to mount Dream.

(Sam going insane about getting his treasure filthy, filling him up and knotting him so nothing escapes. Dream needs to be bred properly, pinned with claws and neck caught in his jaw (but gently ! Safely) so his prey can't escape.

He had to earn it first, of course. Dream is proud and beautiful as all unicorns are, and Sam must be Very Good to earn his attentions.

This is all in Sam's head for the most part. While Dream is very pleased and wanted to be courted because Being Valued and Respected Is Nice, he had already considered Sam to be his, will fuck him and sprawl on top of him and only feels truly satisfied when Sam is beside him. Sam will be very surprised when Dream one day turns Sam over to nuzzle his fur before fucking him silly.

Also I just have a cute imagery of Sam trying desperately not to rut like a silly boy before he even gets inside Dream. Sam is just so desperate. He ruts because he can't help it, whimpering. maybe a little frustrated with himself. whining and panting when he finally gets his cock inside Dream.

He just needs it so badly, and his treasure is making soft noises of pleasure beneath him. He wants to breed Dream full of cum!!! He was Dream to limp and whimper and for it to leak out of him!!! He wants to knot him so if it starts leaking out of Dream, Sam will know it's because he stuffed him full.

Sam feeling the cum leak, and Dream making a show of trying to drag himself out from under Sam because he can't take more, its too much, he can't take it

(Being inside Dream is Relief and Heavenly and Being Granted A Privilege, An Honor. He's Just A Little Puppycat You See, a puppy who needs his fill, and all the unicorns in the world couldn't draw him in like Dream did. Dream Was Special. Dream was obviously sent to save Sam.

Dream was meant to find Sam and Save Him Free Him Take Him Home. Dream was made to be with Sam. Dream was meant to be pure, except when he was meant to be dirtied by Sam's touch, Owned And Changed. And obviously Dream will soak in the river with Sam and will go back to being pure and beautiful. But Then Next Week Sam Will Have Him Again, and Sam now has finally managed to "trap" a unicorn for good. because Dream loves him. So really Sam was actually right to do this all along-

and now he gets cuddles and kisses and gets to have his cock in Dream and gets to Zoom in a forest instead of having to pretend to be human in a castle. Truly, life is good for a Sam)

A puzzleshipping The Last Unicorn AU? In 2024?? More likely than you think!

Rated: T

In a time of princes and princesses, witches and wizards, creatures and cryptids, Prince Atem has noticed that most of the mythical beasts of his kingdom have been caught by the formidable White Dragon.

Perhaps he find the answer to their final whereabouts with the help of three new friends: a magician, a cook, and someone too beautiful and brilliant for the prince to ignore.

“There are no happy endings, because nothing ever ends”

- Peter S. Beagle, The Last Unicorn    

@kyluxcryptidfest is again reminding me that I am too ambitious and tend to overestimate my abilities XD. Anyway this is for Day one promt: “I choose to believe” as a Last Unicorn AU (If you haven’t watched it it’s magical and free on youtube)

Also uploading the WIPs for the AU that I’ll hopefully finish by tomorrow but who knows!

[bluiex]

Last Unicorn time Since we love hybrids around here, Scar's spell manages to make him a unicorn faun instead of full human. Which sure would cause some issues in the story but we can change all that to work out So he keeps his magic and stuff but still half human now -Fern Anon

!!!YES a perfect solution >:3c It'll take Gri some time to get use to it, but he isn't all that upset

[piosplayhouse]

"Oh dear," the unicorn thought. "I must've really mucked up the story beyond compare! The Red Bull Luo Binghe is protecting the last unicorn scum?! Unconscionable! He should have driven me off the cliff by now!!"

Imagine little Leo having trouble sleeping so he ends up watching tv and movies with Splinter to pass the time. Splinter often just passes out in his chair, but Leo likes the company anyway.

One day, Leo’s rifling through the movies his dad brought back for them (usually 70s and 80s stuff - Splinter has a bias) and he gasps.

Leo runs over to Splinter and holds up a copy of The Last Unicorn, begging that they watch it that night.

Splinter remembers absolutely nothing about the movie, but hey it’s got a unicorn and it’s animated so it’s gotta be fine, right? So he turns the movie on and passes out near immediately.

He’s woken up roughly an hour and a half later by Leo climbing up onto his chair and sobbing hysterically into his chest.

The movie is now one of Leo’s favorites.

ROMEO, AGAIN. [Feeding my addiction before I get little time to draw for a good while 'cause classes are starting again.] - I got around to doing a finalized version of his mortal design! Yay! He gets to keep the equine features, I like them too much + it's a canon thing in my AU where ex-admins still aren't 'human'. Compared to Xara, whose features are more subtle, Romeo's mortal form isn't, and it makes integration back into society much harder. More things are to be said, but not right now, I'm just gonna say right here that Romeo's not living by himself, but he is living it pretty damn sad as he should be HAHA ----------------------------------------------------- On a brighter note, I can finally move onto Fred or Xara's design process after this, and then start drawing stuff with all of them! Not sure who I'll start on first, but I'm excited for both regardless! I'm really hoping I can get far into this AU of mine because I love it so, so much. It doesn't deviate far from canon, but moreso adds more depth to the world and characters......and bears a lot of references to mods that I fancy (nothing super crazy, like nothing that completely breaks vanilla/"realistic" aspects of the world!) I've been calling it the "MCSM modded AU" for a while and haven't found a better name yet. Thank you guys for all the support and notes I've gotten so far!

also, did you know I live in north america? I don't live in a different time zone from it, my sleep schedule is just that abysmal because I can't draw during the day...my activity may drop once the semester begins :)

[cupcakeslushie]

How is he cringe?

Oh..hon…

Splinter asked April and Cass to check on Leo while him and the boys were out.

Don’t know why he’s fighting so hard to get that phone—pretty much everyone in the family knows his secret anyway.

Yandere Head Canon:

A Friendship Forever

Yandere Platonic Unicorn x GN Reader

This is a self indulgent piece for all the people who always wanted a unicorn as a friend when they were young (albeit a crazy one).

Tw: Kidnapping, being held hostage (affectionately), platonic yandere, and yandere themes

Your hands ran a brush through Andromeda’s white main. The unicorn leaned into your touch with a whinny.

“Andromeda, I cannot stay here.” You softly whispered to your longtime friend. The unicorn turned her head to look at you, her soft voice rung in your brain. It still unnerved you that she’d always communicate with you telepathically despite how many years she’d done this…

“But it’s safe here. You said you didn’t want to get married or grow old, so I brought you here.” Andromeda’s white ears flapped against her head, another whinny left her lips.

“I said that when I was five, Andromeda.” You sighed softly. “I’m in my twenties now-“

“Humans are a fleeting existence! You’d whither away if I didn’t step in!” Andromeda nodded her head. “You’re my best friend! I cannot bear to lose my best friend!”

Andromeda rose to her feet before she shook her head, her dark eyes held a playful glint in them. “Come on! We can frolic together in the enchanted forest just like we always have!”

“We can play forever! This is much better than being with humans. Humans are bad! But not you… you’re the best!”

Andromeda nodded her head at you, a snort escaped her muzzle when you didn’t get up right away. “I know you’re not tired! You’ve slept for hours! Come on!”

You sighed when Andromeda stomped her hooves at you to encourage you to get up. The unicorn happily whinnied when you obediently followed her. “There we go! Want to race to the waterfall?”

“Andromeda, you know you’ll win.” You sighed when the unicorn stamped her hooves against the forest floor.

“Not true! I let you win sometimes!” The unicorn began to circle you as she shook her mane about in a playful manner. This unicorn was still quite childish despite the many years you’ve known her. “It’s been a fifty-fifty!”

Andromeda bumped her head against your back. “Well, if you don’t want to do that, we can make flower crowns in the field!” The thought seemed to excited the unicorn who began to bounce up and down. “You can make your flower crowns and I can eat some flowers! That’s a fantastic deal, wouldn’t you say?”

You gave the unicorn a sad smile. This mythical creature could never understand you properly. You knew her will came from a good place, you’d never starve her or worry about rent anymore… but you missed your friends. Your human friends. And time seemed to pass by so differently in this enchanted forest. The weather was always perfect… And that’s when a terrifying thought entered your mind. How long have you been here exactly?

“How long have I been here with you now, Andromeda?” You softly asked the unicorn, hopeful for reassurance that it’s only been a few weeks… that you still had a life to go back to if you tried to escape.

Andromeda thought for a moment before she stomped her hoof on the ground. “It’s been about five months here, but that’s fifty years in your world!”

Andromeda circled you. “I upset the balance of the forest for my very best friend! But the spirits are not upset with me since I’ve been alone for so long! Yes, yes! We will be together until the end of time! Just you and me… friends forever.”

You felt a few tears run down your cheeks as your situation finally sunk in. You really were trapped here forever with her…

[twiafom]

you have let your doom in by the front door king pitch!!

the losers and i were talking about our childhood favs that we remain obsessed with and i realized i haven't hijackified tlu with art yet (only a drabble a few years ago) so i'm correcting that now

Rooftop | Arthur and Merlin | Gen | 302 Words | Last Unicorn AU

@merlinmicrofic

As thaw returns the ground to life, so time returned to Merlin. Had he thought to look, he might have glimpsed it, wondered at how his nose sniffled from pollen in spring, or felt the touch of the first new wrinkles finally leaving their mark, but it wasn’t until he was on a rooftop dwarfed by the stars, lost in his own thoughts, that he realized it. His mortality had returned.

It was funny, looking back on their quest, it seemed a dream. His memory of the unicorn felt so wane and distant, and yet crystal clear. He could better recall Gwen’s warm smile, or Arthur’s noble look.

From behind, a step disturbed his silence. As if summoned, Arthur spoke, “I had wished I would find you again.”

Startled, the stars whirled away, tilting the world until it recentered on Arthur. Dryness stole Merlin’s steadiness of voice. “Camelot flourishes. All the world sings praise of her king.” From the shadows of memory, a dimmed young lady waited, eyes luminous only for her prince, no longer brilliant with the newness bestowed to her.

Arthur shrugged. “It matters not.” Sitting next to Merlin, he looked up at the stars but his voice murmured only to Merlin’s ears. “Not when there’s only loneliness.”

The warmth of his closeness burned Merlin’s side. “You’ll come to like it.” The unicorn’s horn ghosted across Arthur’s lips like a first kiss.

But Arthur shook his head. Eyes lowering, he glanced at Merlin sidelong. “I said once before I’d rather not be king; that I’d rather go with you.”

The unicorn’s echo looked at him, then melted away.

“I’d still like to go with you, if you’ll have me.”

Merlin chuckled, soul loosening as old regrets faded away. “Pity. And here I was about to seek employment from Camelot’s king.”

@kyluxcryptidfest , Day 1: “I want to Believe”. AKA Last Unicorn AU!

Hopefully I get to finish/colour these by tomorrow, but that’s what I thought of the previous one XD.

Kylo as the Unicorn, Hux as Prince Lear, Poe as Captain Cully, Finn as Molly Grue and Rey as Shmendrick.

Honestly love that movie so much!

[bluiex]

I thought about Pearl for Molly. But Molly's personality is very Cleo to me. She's rough, she'll tell you how it is, and she's ready to fight for those she cares about A lot like Cleo for me LOL But yes some good ol Scarian in there cause why not I did try to figure out where Mumbo might fit in but yknow, no one really suits him But Cub also trying to woo Grian is good, which is why he could be the prince guy that Doc adopts. So we could very well have convexian too -Fern anon

Just make Mumbo whoever, tis an au- he can be whatever we want him to be LMAO but Cub is good too for the prince
