#mea au

[persephoneggsy]

I’ll probably ink + color this later, but for now I just wanted to get this AU idea out there. A Mass Effect Andromeda x Dragon Age AU, because of course.

EDIT: complete!

Details below!

Featuring, from left to right:

Marian Hawke:

Having come to Andromeda with her younger siblings in hopes of starting a new life after their parents died, Marian was initially a part of the Nexus’s security team. She was trained as a powerful biotic as well as a skilled medic. After the Andromeda Initiative proved incompetent (at least, in her eyes), she grabbed her siblings and joined the other exiles on Kadara Port.

The Hawke family soon established themselves as a trio of talented mercenaries and smugglers, and found more success on their own than they ever would’ve had they stayed with the Initiative.

At least, that’s what Marian figured. Her view on the Initiative begins to change when she crosses paths with the human Pathfinder…

Sebastian Vael:

As the grandson of one of the first humans to go through a mass relay and explore beyond their solar system, Sebastian always dreamed of following in his grandfather’s footsteps. Following a troubled youth, he got back on track with his dream when he joined the Alliance and rose through the ranks, eventually earning the coveted N7 designation and the praise of his superiors. His military career drew the attention of an Andromeda Initiative recruiter, who came to him with the opportunity of a lifetime.

Sebastian eagerly accepted her proposal, though many raised an eyebrow at such a young man being named Pathfinder. He was determined to prove his worth, and to many, he earned that respect as he rose to every challenge Andromeda threw at him.

Still, there are many who continue to scoff at his youth, and yet more disagree with his decisions. It doesn’t help that there’s a rumor flying about that claims Sebastian has become romantically involved with the infamous exile and smuggler, Marian Hawke.

Hildegarde Trevelyan:

Hildegarde’s entire family joined the Initiative, and she wound up getting swept along with them. That isn’t to say she doesn’t believe in the Initiative’s mission, but she was hesitant at the prospect of never returning to her home galaxy.

Her anxiety was calmed somewhat when she learned that a childhood friend of hers was going to be their Pathfinder, and that he’d asked for her specifically due to her background as a xenoanthropologist — someone who studies other alien cultures would surely be an asset in a new, uncharted galaxy. And because she’s a trained biotic, she was put on Sebastian’s ground team.

Hildegarde flourishes in the new galaxy, finding a confidence and sense of self-worth that had eluded her back in the Milky Way. And it’s with this newfound confidence that she decides a pursue a relationship with Cullen, a Nexus militia fighter who joined their team after their arrival.

Cullen Rutherford:

A model Alliance soldier, Cullen opted to join the Andromeda Initiative after he became enamored with the idea of pioneering a new era of space exploration. However, while that’s partially true, the main reason he joined the Initiative was for a new beginning; a mission gone horribly wrong back in the Milky Way left him the sole survivor of his unit, and he was traumatized as a result. While he was eventually declared fit for duty, he found it difficult to focus when nearly everything reminded him of those awful days.

Going to Andromeda got him away from those reminders, while still giving him the chance to do something good. He joined the Nexus’s security division, briefly met Marian while there, and fought on the Initiative’s side during the rebellion, though his faith in the Initiative had begun to waver.

With the arrival of the human Pathfinder and an ark, however, he found a renewed sense of purpose, asking to be placed on the Pathfinder’s crew. Sebastian welcomed him to the team, and Cullen found himself growing unexpectedly close to their resident xenoanthropologist, Hildegarde.

Does Bee find Mea cute? In his eyes, is she a magical little fairy? I’m just very curious. Cause if I got a partner who can sit and sleep in my palm I will not have the mental abilities to do anything else other than squealing at them all day. Like, imagine a partner who can make a Kleenex box a little bed. I can make a cardboard box into a mansion for them! And I can make my floor a theme park for them! It’s just so magical and so cute!

He definitely finds her cute but in main timelines, he probably won’t do what you mentioned (considering he very much respects Mea and she doesn’t like being treated like that) buuut that also led me to this au 👀

It’s based off of first contact fics I’ve read before where the bot first meets their human as they arrived on earth for the first time. (watch me not commit to this au like my other aus)

In this au, Mea didn’t meet voltage, didn’t meet zodiac and didn’t get the Dagitab relic- making her completely human (and less traumatized).

[junespriince]

Hey, you have my face! Au (body switch au)

Roy: so, how does it feel to be in walls body?

Dick: if I looked like this every day I would be so narcissistic, my bedroom would be filled with mirrors.

Roy: and you Wally, how does it feel to be in Dick's body?

Wally: I have pretty privileges now, but damn his family need him way too much can't breathe without someone needing someone, I was an only child for so long it's weird!

Roy: plan on telling the league about this?

Wally and Dick, laugh: nope!

Dick: if Bruce the greatest detective in the world as he claims he'll figure it out.

Wally: besides Iris already figured us out and is enjoying the fun so why spoil it so soon?

Donna: this is gonna be a mess.

Wally: I love it messy though.

Donna: of course you do.

Wally: before I have to leave, baby how was Kyle.

Dick: was so scared of me being nice to him. Have it recorded, obviously.

Wally: god, I love you.

proper refs for my new r&m ocs :-) more info BELOW

morty v-37 - basically gets used as a human shield and then promptly left for dead by his previous rick(which is why hes got the scar and prosthetics), y-4441 finds him and fixes him up + erases his memories of the whole nearly dying thing. he’s pretty chillaxed and a bit more cynical than an average morty, more “rickish” i guess idk. tends to be skeptical, likes poking holes in rick’s arguments/inventions etc etc but like in a teasing way

rick y-4441 - very peppy, upbeat and emotional. he kind of reeaalllyyy dislikes the cfc and stays away from it as much as possible, especially after finding and unofficially adopting v-37. he’s not as tech savvy as most rick’s, his abilities are more akin to s1 rick’s skill level? as in, he lives off of scraps of materials and creative solutions, less god-like and more “old man in garage who happens to know physics and chemistry”. loves to ramble about basically anything and happily indulges in morty’s hypotheticals/questions whatever. EXCEPT! for why morty doesnt have his fingers he shuts that topic down immediately just does not want to deal with that can of worms at allll

to preface, the plushie hangman design is so cute and squishy aaah i love the rounded edges.

i suppose when the plushie came to life, alan expected to give the color gang a baby's first lesson on treating inhuman beings that are weaker than you with kindness and respect, but it seems like the color gang's intrinsic goodness made it unnecessary.

bonus: the mercs/victim's reaction to the plushie would be hilarious. wtf, is that even possible??

THANK YOU THEY'RE VERY FUN TO DRAW.....

alan was indeed very scared about that (even if he's glad he's here to actually teach them to be nice) but it was pretty relieving to see they were nice!

...even if SC kind of still holds hangman like a plushie initially and he REALLY has to teach them not to do that because hangman is clearly scared by being dangled by their arm. SC means well, they just need some help getting it right

as for victim:

they don't like hangman very much

Modern au ♡♡♡♡ Just been having a lot of feelings for my boy Legend lately and went back to read some of the stuff in our server. Had a lot of inspo to sketch some of it out that I've been meaning to for a year or two 😅

First one Legends a dork setting up stage equipment w Time, sees Maggie across the room and doesn't realize mic and speakers are all hooked up and working perfectly

Second way in the future, uncle Rulie visiting and getting to meet baby Ivy for the first time ♡

Then messing around with sidewalk chalk, little doodles from when they were little and older sticking with each other and helping through really rough times.

Then like akskdkfk the last one is me giving my embarrassing moments to Autumn because oof (for me it was a singer I was in the meet and greet line for, for Autumn they just used to go to the same school and oof doesn't like people remembering him)

Then modern au Antione and Mea because ye they exist in the same world, too

Shoot almost forgot conspiracy theory sky oops

Valicer In The Dark -- Evolution Of A Bit About Horses

Me: [doing a post about worldbuilding in my Valicer In The Dark universe back in June 2023] Hmmm -- I don't remember off the top of my head whether or not there were any mention of horses in the actual Blades In The Dark book. You know what, rather than checking, I'm going to be funny, pull a Fallout, and declare them extinct in the world of the Shattered Isles! That way, if I ever have my VITD trio visit another universe, I can amuse myself by having them be like "...what's a horse?" whenever the topic comes up! :D I'm sure that, when I next reread Blades In The Dark, nothing will pop up to utterly ruin my bit! :D

Me: [rereads Blades In The Dark and discovers plenty of references to horses -- including, most importantly, the fact that the natives of the nation of Severos who don't live in the Imperial cities live in tribes on their ghost-hunting horses]

Me: D: My bit :(

[later on:]

My Brain: Hmmmm...okay Vic -- I have given this some thought, and the way I see it, we can go one of three ways. One -- we keep the bit, throw out that stuff in the book, and say that horses are extinct in your version of the Shattered Isles. Two -- we toss the bit, admit we were wrong, and that horses do exist, even if they're rare. Or three -- and I think this is the best option -- we modify the bit and say that horses are extinct in your Shattered Isles everywhere but Severos.

Me: Why are you so sure Option 3 is the best option?

My Brain: Because not only does it mean we don't have to completely chuck the bit -- it also opens up a story idea. There's a Severosi faction in the book -- The Silver Nails, remember? They want to get control of the heavily-haunted Lost District, and one of their assets is supposed to be their cavalry horses. What if, in your world, they're trying to smuggle in those horses, haven't succeeded yet because the animals keep dying en-route -- and when they do get a living horse successfully into the city, it escapes? And the Three Pillars happen to be nearby when it does, and have to help stop the damn thing before it causes too much damage or gets itself killed? That could be a cool score for them to complete, and gives you plenty of opportunities for them to be absolutely freaked out by this weird-looking creature that they previously assumed was just a type of goat all the while. Just total "?!?! That's a horse?!" the whole time.

Me: ...you're right, that is the best option.

So yes -- please accept my extremely-belated apologies about being wrong about a small thing in my worldbuilding post from over a year ago that probably none of you remember, and enjoy this updated post on the status of horses in my version of the Shattered Isles and Duskwall. XD I am actually quite looking forward to writing that story at some point -- I suspect it will be most chaotic.

Our Flag Means Death - AU ECO PIRATES.

Gentlemen Pirate and Blackbeard are eco-pirates who raid fishing boats and oil tankers to stop maritime crimes.

[ofengineers]

@creatrix-mea said: Anabella regarded the other with a strange look on her face. “I saw you befriending my son,” she spoke and pursed her lips slightly as if she was considering her next words. “What are your intentions? I do not want his heart to be broken. He is my everything.” (I can’t believe this is… the first time i interact with your blog even tho i adore mid u_u)

Mid feels her heart almost miss a beat at these words. Oh. She fears this woman so much already. And the truth is that she doesn't plan to break Joshua's heart at all. She cherishes every moment she spends with him. He warms her heart in a way she never felt before. But Anabella's gaze... it's scary. She would prefer if she likes her; she doesn't want to get the Clive treatment.

"My... intentions ?" she repeats, doing her best not to let a NERVOUS chuckle escape her mouth. "Lady Anabella..." Yes, be at least a bit formal, it should help. She clears her throat. "He's very dear to me. I assure you that I don't want to break his heart at all. We're... We're enjoying each other's company. We're close... We're... friends." Oh tthis is so awkward.

[sacredflorist]

The streets of Sanbreque are always quite crowded these days which is good for Aerith these days. She's working hard, selling both flowers and medicinal herbs and potions. And yet when she notices Anabella Rosfield — or is she named Anabella Lesage now ? — her heart almost misses a beat. She has always known this day would come, of course. It had been a few years already since the Night of Flames that almost killed so many people. Aerith wonders where her childhood friends are. The only thing she knows is that they are alive. She would know if they died. But if only she could see them again. She can tell something wrong is going on right now. It's like Valisthea itself is screaming from the inside. These powers are weird. Sometimes, she really can't know anything with them. She's just awared. Deeply awared.

"Would you like to buy something, Your Grace ?" she asks, offering the older woman a smile. She takes a red flower from her basket and hands it to the other. "This one is free!" Hopefully, Anabella won't recognize her from before. Aerith knows the other has always despised her.

@creatrix-mea ❤'d !
