Monstrum au: Is it weird that I want to know more about the random dude with the contagious quirk that causes you to become allergic to pineapples?

Probably not but tbh I really did not think much about him beyond "Hey wouldn't it be funny if someone accidentally made a bunch of people allergic to pineapples." That's his legacy now. He'll go down in history for the Pineapple Incident. Around the world people will buy pineapples and be jokingly asked if they were near Pineapple Guy. There's a page about the Pineapple Incident on the MHA!WIkipedia equivalent.

The first monster in Frankenstein is not this Creature... The famous Creature is a peripheral ephemeron, glimpsed by the crew on Walton's polar adventure as a near mirage on a far-distant ice-plain... The immediate astonishment is the appearance the next morning of a haggard being off the side of the ship on a fragment of ice, alone in a sled but for one dog, asking which direction the ship is headed. "Good God! Margaret, if you had seen the man who thus capitulated for his safety, your surprise would have been boundless," writes Captain Walton to his sister; "His limbs were nearly frozen, and his body dreadfully emaciated by fatigue and suffering. I never saw a man in so wretched a condition." This is the first dreadful wretch in Mary Shelley's novel, and soon the star of its first "Frankenstein" moment. The wretched being faints dead away then is revived, animated, by the crew... This crew brings life out of death. In a body dreadful to behold, teeth-gnashing, mad, wild, Victor Frankenstein receives concerned parental care as a fellow human being. Everything he recounts hereafter bears this tremendous irony. Monsters are not born, the Author of Frankenstein proposes; they are made and unmade on the variable scales of human sympathy.

⥉ About This Blog ⥉

Open to asks about my OCs, world lore, or just wanting to drop in and have a chat!

Mainly using this blog to share lore, snippets of my novels, things that amuse me and worldbuilding.

Current Novel WIPs:

Monstrum (Which, yes, is loosely based on my fanfic under the same name) A God who never wanted to be a God, sea elves, sapphic dwarven Goddess, polyamory is pretty much the norm, cursed tome that exploded a temple, MC works out he's a transman... What more could you want? Oh wait, there's one more thing: son of God who died multiple times and came back wrong each time, is currently possessing MC's meant-to-be-dead mother! Oops.

Quondam

Takes place centuries before Monstrum, when The Maker was only a sorcerer who wanted a better world... and now deals with the consequences of taking over as Sovereign of the World. Surely she can change her world without destroying it?

[Un-named]

Crash landing on a unknown planet, memories wiped... The A.I. with corrupted data, known as Thio, calls them Viator, but is that their name? Or a title? The only thing Viator knows is that they were thrown into a black hole... and now have a ship to fix, and to find civilisation.

DNI unless you are: the offspring of foul sorcery and devilry, true diabolic creations fit only for killing, stalkers of evil, vanquishers of werewolves and exterminators of spectres, importunate and insolent, a godless changeling, a creature contrary to nature, an immoral and filthy degenerate, born of the blackest and most foul-smelling Hell!!!!!!!!!!

Monstrum au: I know it's probably been awhile since this is a less touched au; any clues as to how transformed-Melissa looks now? (maybe with her transformed state and psychic connection to Izuku, she feels confident enough to go the hero route like she originally planned?)

I was definitely thinking of Melissa as going the Hero route post-infection.

The main change I'd settled on for Melissa was having four arachnid legs that would let her walk on any surface.

Echo the Monster, Echo the Human

I love 'Monstrum', and I always get excited when they include the more sci-fi aspects of horror.

This more recent inclusion is fantastic:

It's as if it was custom made for our sweet member of Clone Force 99.

Never forget how, even rescued by Rex, Echo never felt like he truly belonged back amongst the other regular clones. He had to follow the deviant clones of CF99, until duty and personal honor demanded that he help his regular brothers once more...a development that was amazing to watch in season 2, episode 14's opening (which, IMHO, was the most Star Wars-y of a Star Wars show that has ever existed, from dope space battle to TK troopers eating it to the Empire's theme coming out of nowhere).

Echo literally followed the exact pattern expected of a cyborg's journey in our collective concepts. He went through a terrifying experience, briefly lost his humanity, and struggles to fit in after he is partially made machine. Only when he goes back to help others does he shed this self conscious. He chooses his humanity, and does not wither into the machine part of himself.

His journey follows the same pattern as Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker's...but rather then continue on his own personal journey of either power or wisdom, he goes right back to serving his brothers, his collective family, in perhaps the most selfless journey imaginable for anyone who is part man and machine in this galaxy.

Echo may, quite literally be, the most pure human in this series.

Not bad for someone who was raised in a lab, cloned with millions, and then turned into a partial machine.

I'm working on my novel again, and honestly I have such a love/hate relationship for royal politics. Especially when a certain character breaks off and makes not only her own kingdom, but also the "True Religion" (which isn't far off guessing what actually happened to the Maker).
