#not my final eclipse design

[lilbitosunny]

Doodle dump I did last night as a cooldown after the comic!

[wittymumbledon]

Hello! Hey, would you be so kind to draw young stanford and young fiddleford as space cowboys?

(Here's some refs that show a bit better what I wanted ya to go for)

I love 19th century clothes in all their varieties and I love retro scifi (wouldn't have started my comic if I didn't fhdhjdhjdfhj) - and clearly i've been aching for more cowboy art (and for another excuse to draw college era fidds) - cause this was really fun HGDFGHDGH

Hope I did your idea justice!

[child-of-the-cosmos]

Something Something Yada Yada, Villain Eclipse.

You get to be the henchman.

Short one-shot thing I made for this under cut.

~2,800 words.

Tron city is a peaceful place. Tall modern buildings, fresh flowers lining the sidewalks, and a friendly face on every corner only begin to describe why such a place is perfect for anyone.

"My, my... you should know how much I love parties."

But you don't live there.

"Always been a fan of a lovely bash."

In fact, you (your boss) are about to crumble it's very foundation.

A bear, tall and true- stares at the perpetrator, his light blue eyes holding a mix of emotions. But the ones you can point out the most are resentment...

And sadness.

"It does not have to be this way, Eclipse." He tells the tall figure in front of you, eyes never moving. Never seeing you behind him. You were invisible to the conversation.

The said figure bristles at that, sharp rays ticking like the time bomb he was. Silence envelopes the three of you, before it is shattered by his laugher. Cold and cackling. The very sound of it makes you shiver.

"Oh, but it always had been." He seethes back, laugher long gone- replaced by the chilling tone you've been accustomed to these last few weeks.

The bear's eyes slide to you then, and you freeze as his piercing gaze hold you down. He could blast you into smithereens if he wanted to right now.

"I see you hired a new sidekick. Tell me, will they have to suffer the same fate as the last?" The bear asks him. It was a jab, you knew- and though you weren't privy to see your boss's face, you could feel the anger radiating off him in waves. You clutch the button he'd given you tighter in your hands. Things were about to get really ugly.

"And at whose hands did they suffer by?" The sound of gears grinding together makes you glance his way. You wince at the sight of his clawed fist, the metal denting from the sheer force of it's owner.

"Was it yours, or mine?" Your boss finishes, releasing the fist to flourish his hand in the bear's direction.

Blue eyes fill with an anger of it's own this time, and you feel the waves of his power as he begins to hover in place. You glance worryingly in your boss' direction. You... wouldn't be caught in the cross fire, right?

"You know that was not my intent, Eclipse." The bear grits out, the image of hurt flashing across is features for no more than a second, before it is replaced by anger once more.

Your boss walks forward, the bottom of his shoes clicking with each step he took towards the bear. You quickly try to follow, not having nearly as much flare as he did.

The streets are empty. Someone must've evacuated them beforehand. A single red flower catches your eye. Ah, how pretty.

"Ah, and yet- it happened."

A boom shakes your entire body. The sound mixed with an electric pulse. Each thump almost makes you lose your footing. The bear has shot towards your boss, body flying with a speed inhuman. They lock hands, before your boss throws the bear into the glass of a building nearby. Sharp shards burst and fall onto the ground below. Sweat beads and drips down your neck as you stand helplessly in the mist of it all. Far too close.

But you could not run. You still had the button that he'd given you.

And you had to stay, for her.

Your heart beats rapidly in your chest, and your mind blurs as it tries to keep up with the ongoing fight. Gravel is smashed as this time- your boss is thrown into it. Air refuses to leave your lungs at this sight. If he lost, then you would surely be sent to prison- no one would be able to take care of her in your leave. Oh, you were so stupid. Stupid, stupid, stupid-

A clawed hand reaches out from the dust and debris of their fight, and you can't help the relief that floods you as you spot the dark crimson metal. Within a second, your boss is back on the bear, but you don't miss frayed ends of a wire poking out from his faceplate. He was getting hurt.

They both were.

You can visibly see the deep claw marks on the bear's chest, combined with the dents on his arms. You did not know his name- truthfully, only learning about such machinery really existing fairly recently. Where you came from, super powered bots like him only existed in the comics you'd scrap up from the throw away bins for her. It was the only thing that would really bring light to her eyes.

And now, you were helping the opposite team fight him.

A loud clang of metal on metal snaps your attention back to the fight. It seems the bear had just thrown off your boss, holding even more wounds than before. He holds his shoulder, glaring deeply at your boss.

And then he looks at you.

A brief look of guilt- followed by resolution.

Time slows down, and you watch as his working arm raises, palm open and facing your way. Blue sparks flicker in the center of it, before it lights up full force. Your heart plummets. Even if you ran, you would not escape the blast. You were going to di-

Something grabs you, the grip firm, as you're swung around behind the figure. You look up to see the whites of the eyes of your savior. Your boss.

"Ah, almost lost you there." He tells you softly, letting a hint of emotion flow through his words as he grinned from above. "We'll have to go through safety training when this is all over."

You blink. You look behind him. There's a force field. Oh, okay. You're alive. Awesome. Your legs almost give out from underneath you.

He then turns around to face the bear, and you only catch a glimpse of his expression before he does. He was grinning like a madman- but he was furious.

"I thought you were past foul play, but I guess not."

The bear does not answer, but blasts at the force field once more. Through the bright light, something catches your eye. A green blur. Slinking behind a building high above the three of you. You quickly put two and two together.

With the button moved to one hand, you hesitantly tap your boss's arm. His head snaps to face you, eye quirked in a manner of question. You pause, how were you going to explain this to him?

You raise your free hand, slowly moving your fingers to make them crawl upward. Seeing this, his frown only deepens. Another blast hits the force field, making you flitch. You look at him again, determined. You point at the tower you saw the green... whatever it was slink behind.

Your boss follows your finger's direction, and for a moment- he's still very confused... But then he sees it. And it clicks. He grins, manic expression back in place. You sigh in relief, just happy he somehow understood you.

You were mute. Unable to utter even syllable since you were young. You can't remember how it happened, but since then- you couldn't talk for the life of you. And you had tried. And tried. And tried.

It made getting a job, especially in your position, very hard. As if it wasn't enough already.

With a flick of his hand, your boss sends a mechanical disk flying. In the air, you can spot the spikes that pop out from around it, spinning rapidly as it charges towards it's target.

And it doesn't miss.

High up on the building, glass shatters from the impact, the wall of it imploding. You hear a far off growl, before you suddenly see the green blur up close. Too close.

A gator, your mind supplies within the second that you see it, jumps from the building. But then disappears. You can't stop the fear that overcomes you when he suddenly appears again, right in front of another force field that your boss put up beforehand. The gator strikes it dead on, and it shakes from the impact. Your boss tisks. "As hot headed as ever, Monty."

As you take a mental note of the name, Monty growls vehemently. Red shades lower just enough for you to see the absolute rage in his eyes. He strikes it again. Another blast bursts on the other side of you from the bear. Your mind whirled at all the possibilities of your demise. You felt trapped.

In the mist of your troubling thoughts, you look up at your boss for any sign of a plan you really hoped he had. But to your dismal, he only carries that same crazed grin.

... was that a good thing???? Panic was very well set into your entire system. The onslaught of loud noises did not help. Truthfully, you were suprised you didn't have a panic attack yet. Must be the adrenaline.

You feel a clawed hand gently tap your shoulder, making you whip around in his direction. Your boss is close to your ear, putting him at an odd angle as he leans over to your height. His voiced comes out hushed, making sure only you can hear him. "You've done very well so far... when I give you the signal, click the button."

You eagerly nod. The sooner you clicked it, the sooner this all would be over with. You hoped. You really, really hoped.

Pleased with your answer, he steps away... and keeps stepping. To your shock and horror, he keeps going until he is out of the safety of the force field.

Monty is on him far to quick for your human eyes to keep up with. And just like with the bear, they begin to fight.

They blows they share are much more volatile when compared to the first fight. You guess it was because of how head on Monty was. Each strike seemingly more powerful than the last. You also had a feeling that Monty could not fly like the bear could, watching as he got tossed- only to latch onto a building and jump down.

The sound of another blast to the force field makes you look in the bears direction. He was still aiming towards you. Why?? It didn't make any sense.

The sound also catches your boss's attention, making him glance your way.

A second. A second was all it took for Monty jab him right in the face. A second, and the loud sound of metal colliding with metal filled the already noisy atmosphere. You watch in horror as your boss grabs the right side of his face. And your eyes slide to the gator, who wore a look triumph.

"Never take your eyes off of your opponent- isn't that what you taught me?" His voice comes out incredulous. Hauty.

"Yes, well-" Your boss slowly eases his hand away, revealing a flurry of sparks. "I also had taught you something else- ah, but it seems you might need a touch up on the lesson."

Much to your suprise, Monty takes the worded bate, frowning as he processed the words he was told. "What?" He asks.

Your boss grins. "In every fight, you must always remember to see the bigger picture."

And then he looks at you.

You click the button.

A boom- much louder than anything you've ever heard, shakes the very ground beneath you. And then you see it. In the distance, a large building crumbling. Dread drips and pools in your stomach with an icy cold chill.

What have you done?

"What have you done!?" The bear yells. But he's not looking at your boss. He's looking at you.

"I've hidden seven more in the city, all timed to set off one after the other." You boss nonchalantly comments. "Ah, and you might want to hurry. You're little sidekick is tied up to the second one."

The first look of fear you've seen throughout the whole fight flashes across the bear's eyes. He then, whips is head towards Monty. "Call the others. Tell them to search the city."

Confusion takes over Monty's face. "But what about-"

"Forget them." The bear spits. "We'll deal with them later."

"Do try.. you know how much I hate boredom." Your boss comments, walking back over to you with out a care in the world.

The bear looks like he's about to say something, but bites it back. He then hovers higher, quickly flying off. You look towards Monty, who was staring the two of you down.

"Hurry off now," your boss waves (which was more like a flick) him off.

You hear the gator growl at the two of you one more time, before going on all fours, sprinting in a different direction than the bear.

Your boss taps your shoulder, and you don't realize- but your hands are shaking, clutching the button for dear life. "That's useless now, you can drop it." He tells you.

And with much concentration, you finally do, your fingers stiff as you move them.

The button drops on the ground with a clang. And you boss steps on it, crushing it beneath his foot. "Now," he puts his hand on your back, his touch without any of the violence that he had for the other two, and pushes you forward. Before you know it, you're walking with him.

The familer sight of the ship you've become accustomed to seeing flies down near the two of you, doors opening for you to get in. You walk up it's steps with him, hearing the sound of it sealing close as you both board.

And for a while you keep walking... but then your pace slows, making him look at you.

You stare at him, the words you so dearly want- need to ask unable to come out. You needed to know the consequences of what you had just done. Even if you could never forgive yourself afterwards.

Your boss leans closer to your level. Staring at you for a moment longer before speaking. "The only thing that button you pressed will destroy, are a few buildings." He stands back to his normal height, eyes forward. "I assure you that."

You push yourself to walk in front of him, taking in a shaky breath. You jut out your hand, holding it in the air. Waiting.

He pauses- before slowly, tentatively, placing his hand in yours. You shakily scrawl out the word 'sidekick'.

Your boss rolls his eyes. "That tower doesn't have a bomb. And even if it did, Freddy would've saved him before it went off."

You're unsure if you can trust his words, but you have no choice but to. You let go of his hand, nodding.

Your boss stiffly nods as well for some reason. "Good. Now that that's settled- you can rest. I'll be in the repair room if you need me."

Your eyes snap to his once more. How could you forget!? He had gotten hurt too!

The right side of his face had a huge crack going down it, and the eye on that said was completely shot- that's where the sparks were coming from. He also had a few dents, though it was no where near as much as the bear had. You couldn't see what shape Monty had been in, him moving way to fast for you to keep up with.

As if he can read your mind, your boss speaks up once more. "I've handled worse, I assure you." He pauses. "You should go to your room, you have things you have to attend to, yes?"

You freeze, before nodding hesitantly. Did he know about her- oh, of course he did. There was no way someone like him couldn't.

With that, he waves you off- and you quickly run through the ship, traveling to your room.

Once you reach the door, it quietly slides open, sensing you. You slowly tiptoe in, walking over to your bed.

And there she was, all tucked in. Her red poofy hair was a mess- you'd have to comb it later. She had drool sliding out of her mouth as she slept.

But she was safe. And that's all that mattered.

You lean over, gently patting her forehead. Her brows pull together, and she pulls her hand out of the covers to rub her face. She falls back to sleep with ease.

"Goodnight, Mable." You whisper to the little girl. A sister related not by blood, but by the past to both shared with each other.

You told her you'd both get out of the orphanage, and you did.

And now, all you had to do was keep your job a secret. Your very dangerous, and risky job. You sigh.

You needed a shower.

I FINALLY MADE THEM A REF

MY BOY IS REAL!!

I may be a FNaF fan, but I gotta admit, there's a lot of merch that just kinda sucks lol

[anangelcalledinquisitor]

Can I just say thank you to everyone who has been good about tagging their Help Wanted 2 spoilers? I'm not being as diligent with it as I was for Security Breach in general, but it is one that I want to try to experience as much as I can when I can actually play it (word is there will be a Non-VR version soon-ish? And since I can't play VR for medical reasons, I have to wait).

(and to all of you who don't tag your Ruin spoilers, seriously, why you gotta be like that?)

Fanbinding: The Desert Storm (series) by @blue-sunshine-mauve-morning

MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU!

This is 1 of 2 posts for today, a massive project that I have hit a significant milestone for: completion of both my & the author's 15-volume set of the 1.1 million word The Desert Storm. This is the fic series that got me into Star Wars as an actual fan.

Four years after Order 66 and the fall of the Jedi Order, a grieving, struggling Ben Kenobi finds himself inexplicably taken back in time, crashing headlong into the foundations of fate. Grasping hope and vengeance with both hands, Ben rebuilds his identity and seeks to change the course of history: by saving Anakin Skywalker, the Jedi Order, the galaxy - and just maybe saving Obi-Wan Kenobi along the way.

My design for this typeset was significantly influenced by mem, who had begun a typeset before me and selected black & white images for the title pages, a trend I continued.

As this fic series has meteliculous attention to both canon & EU lore, I stuck with aurebesh characters for titles wherever appropriate, which occasionally gave me some fun opportunities for chapters & tables of contents like this:

For scene dividers, I used a image you can interpret either as twin suns, or as an eclipse.

While I committed to a more classic and less elaborate design for this series, I still rounded & backed every volume in the set. "Editioning" high numbers of similar books like this is often considered in bookbinding circles as necessary to practice skills (I am at 37/45 volumes), and I can certainly say that I have gotten much better at a number of things along the way. The largest book in this series is 616 pages; the smallest, 160 - and I needed to round & back both.

Further thoughts...

Blue_Sunshine (the author) has a fantastic skill for foreshadowing; reread of this series are a must. On top of that, character relationships are consistently and realistically fleshed out and developed. And critically for a "go back in time" story, Blue has a wonderful grasp of the dominoes - what changes trickle down and ripple out; and how that could come back to bite some people. Finally - if you live a badass Obi-Wan Kenobi, this is definitely a fic series for you. Also Blue is a lovely person & our little bits of correspondence has been such a bright spot for me.

Material notes: Duo oatmeal bookcloth, orange marbled jute from Sustain and Heal, hammermill cream paper, gold foil + paint for titles.

Redraw (well, third attempt) of an old drawing from 2022.

Alright, this is a big one, so, PC users: left click the image, right click the image, open in another tab, zoom and see all the details you want.

Phone users: press down on the image, download, find image in your phone gallery, it will download at full quality so you can zoom and see all the details.

The fancy stars and the inside of the piano were a pain in the ass, everything else went pretty smoothly, or at least the average complications. I'm proud of how I mixed the colors in the piano. I was convinced I'd end up making a mess but it turned out nice.

Once again, this is finished because I decided so. I have no energy to make the final look I had in mind.

The piano alone, close ups (cuz the jpeg won't let you zoom at the very max and that sucks, so I screenshot from my art program) and an idea for an AU + youtube playlist I made that I relate too much to the AU under the cut. vvv

SO!

This was never supposed to be an AU, and I probably won't do anything regardless, but I got the idea while I was working on it last month. And since I have a liiiiiiittle basic knowledge of music and experience, specially in piano... well...

I had bad experiences learning music as a child so probably the story would reflect on that lol.

An old astral auditorium that's abandoned and in ruins during the day and gets all shiny and nice at night when it's illuminated by the light of the stars.

Sun, Moon and Eclipse are in charge of the place, they do their best at keeping the place standing… and are the main musicians that play for the stars every month, once or twice. The day and night transformation affects them too.

Violet (y/n that's not really a y/n at this point) is a young altruist and selftaugth violinist (yeah yeah, I'm very original with the names, hush) that came across this old auditorium. She starts visiting the brothers to play music during the day and decides to join them in the auditions to play for the stars, and help them modernize a little bit to attract human audience too.

The brothers play several instruments to be able to acompany each other if necesary buuut they each have a "favourite". Sun mainly Piano, Moon mainly Harp (can also play piano and viola to accompany Sun) and Eclipse can play any instrument Sun and Moon can and more, but likes accordion :)

Sun is the most strict one when it's about playing music even though he likes to mess around with songs and improvise during day hours when no body is around, but will feel guilty afterwards... Moon is a gremlin that likes messing up and playing with the instruments in ways you are not supposed to (like using the viola bow as a sword). Eclipse is easy going and will match the energy of their brothers while keeping them out of trouble. Clip doesn't really like playing for the auditorium and prefers improvising silly songs alone or with Sun and Moon.

You can ask me about this AU if it got you curious, I'll be glad to answer!

I still want to make the MC design at least. And maybe some sketch comics if I have the energy for it.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Sooo, is anyone in the mood for a greek feast?

Credits to @hexcii, who helped me greatly with the character designs and keeps supporting me in every little thing I do <3

I can finally present you a new AU that will be released in the following days in occasion of this holiday—Kallisté.

It's a God of War!Eclipse x God of Love!Reader fanfiction obviously inspired by Ares and Aphrodite. (character playlists linked)

(again, all credits go to @/hexcii <3)

God!Reader is gender neutral, pretty tall compared to normal humans (they're a god, duh), and has a generally outgoing and cheerful personality (but there's a lot more than just that to their character). Eclipse is harsh, rough, angry and mean with the other gods, but the very moment he's faced with someone so different from him, so... pure, he falls so hard and fast he doesn't even know what hit him.

The classic gods will make an appearence too! With their original names tho bc renaming them all would be HELL.

I will take inspiration from many different myths and authors; some greek, some roman, like Ovid, Virgil and Catullus. Other inspirations may come from more recent poets like Ariosto.

My inbox is open for any questions you might have, and I truly can't wait to show you all what I have in store <3 This new AU will be Mature at best (due to some... suggestive scenes and a few sex jokes) and very centered around fluff and comfort, I'll go more into details in the tags when I finally post it.

EDIT: First chapter is finally out!

Again, happy valentine's day!

And btw, Hexcii, you're a fucking treasure <3

[crabsnpersimmons]

day two of clawing my way out of artblock

tried something a little more ambitious today: i've been thinking of how i can bring my digital art style into my traditional art. so i tried experimenting by drawing chef Moon from my Have You Eaten? AU with markers and colour pencils (because honestly, it's the lineless details in their design that make them harder to draw traditionally, which is why i lined them all with a fineliner in their original drawing, which is fine, but it's a different feel from lineless version of my digital art, so i wanted to see if i can accomplish it)

i was tempted to just leave today's practice at that, but then i decided to note down my thoughts:

(definitely recommend marking up your drawings/studies, or write your notes elsewhere.)

overall i felt kinda dissatisfied with the experiment and marking it up with my thoughts helped pinpoint the problem areas and what i should try for the next time. so i took all that and tried again:

(i also decided last minute to try something with the lineart, adding darker areas by adding a few dots of a darker blue and blending it out. dunno if i'll do that all the time, but it's pretty)

but i'm glad i kept going after the initial experiment. i'm pretty happy with the final one (maybe i'll try Sun and Eclipse in the coming days. you have been thoroughly warned.)

[jesterabyss]

Finally posting this!! @theinfamousdoctorf ‘s Eclipse and sun, the former being silly and the latter getting worked up. This fic and these characters continue to live in my head rent free, looking forward to drawing more as I practice/get used to the designs!

Apologies for the blindingly white bg adfgjkl

@emhm 🖤

[hazard-c-horror]

Gonna try and post more of my doodles

Bc I have a lot of them (I think)

My test sketches for my Version 2 Eclipse design (not the final product)

The chains symboling how he was never really free in this life. Started out serving for Bloodmoon, then KC, then the mental chains stay, and soon chain to the star

Left is when Eclipse is in the computer

Middle is when Eclipse gains the star. Parts of Solar Flare getting mixed in what he wants to be

Right is the star burning / corrupting Eclipse the angel astetic from the Star being seen as a godly item. And as a small reference to a potential God Eclipse design from me. (Or what I like to see in a God Eclipse design)

The Star Eclipses I will probably work on. The computer Eclipse I’m really happy with. And I may potentially add a Bloodmoon mindscape one

[yourstrulynobody]

2ET's chapter two is out! Kinda a longish chapter with the maxium of 1,286 words + 7,056 characters :3 (im actually not sure if thats considered a long chapter?)

Other than that, please click →here← for further information of the name usage for both Terra and Cosmos!

Again, I did not describe the gods all too much due to my lack of official design for them—in general, I am horrible at explaining things, so I do apologize in advance!

(Writing under cut)

{ Chapter 1 } ←

Eclipse is tossed into the trial room, left alone on his personal pillar and hes forced to endure the thousand of hateful glares being thrown at him from all directions.

He shakes his head and blinks his eyes rapidly, trying to adjust to the bright light shining down on him as he takes in the sight of the trial room—could it even be called a trial room when it was just an old arena being reused?

Its pillars and seats towered so high that it felt like it reached the sky, though the sky itself was what made up the floor below him. The flooring was a bright blue and white clearing, the clouds causing a fog that made everything blur, and Eclipse sighed as he did quite adore the uniqueness of the structure but hated that it was the work of the very god he despises.

A low disdainful growl came from one of the three higher pillars in front of him to the far left, the very voice of Lunar, the god of Punishment and Karma himself. They were on a mutual hatred with each other. That wasnt any surprise.

Eclipse would love to make some cocky comment of sorts towards Lunar, but the blinding light to the far right kept his mouth shut.

He sucks his teeth as he forces his left pair to adjust to the glow, slowly recognizing that it was not the sun but a halo of one of the other gods; Solar, the god of Rage and Judgement, whose face was covered in shadows though his harsh red eyes remained visible.

The halo's gleam subsided as the god of Justice and Balance, Earth, raises her hand and closes it into a fist, making the glow bearable.

She stood from her seat and walks to the edge of her pillar, her arms spread widely as though to welcome him, but her expression remained serious and cold.

"Total Eclipse 'Totality' Celestial." Her voice echoes from where she stands, the subtle white rings that were her eyes visible under the soft shadow over them. "Your arrival has been expected eons ago. We are glad to have you finally where you belong."

"How welcoming." Eclipse rolls his eyes, rubbing his chained wrists together to try ease the pain though it did nothing but enchance it.

Lunar slams his fist down on his seat's arm, cracking the delicate gold as it slowly patches itself up. "Have some respect, would you?"

Earth eyes Lunar as she clasps her hands together. "Lunar, ease."

"Why should I?" Lunar snarls at his fellow god, his nails digging into the golden chair once more. "If he wishes for a gentle trial, he shall be respectful to us."

Earth's eyebrows furrow but she sighs as she raises her head high, her gaze turning back to Eclipse. "Are you ready for your trial to begin, immortal one?"

Eclipse opens his mouth but clenches his jaw tightly immediately as he swallows down a sarcastic comment. Lunar was right—partially, though. Eclipse is willing to show some respect, just not to Lunar because of many reasons that he can arrange in alphabetical order.

His eyes lock with Earth's, going narrow as he glances at Solar before looking away.

He sighs and nods. "Yeah, Im ready."

"Splendid." Earth claps her hand and a closed scroll appears in front of her.

The scroll unfolds when Lunar causes a rough wind, sending the other end of the scroll near Eclipse and resting a few inches behind him. The crowd gasps before murmuring amongst themselves upon seeing how long the scroll was—the distance between the judges and the judged is about a few feet with the addition of the huge height difference of their pillars, so knowing Eclipse had that much of a long scroll was horrifying just as it was intriguing.

Earth hums. "Quite the asexual, arent you?" She smiles, halfly genuine at the fact. She clears her throat. "Now, immortal one, what must you say for yourself before we criticize of you?"

Eclipse scoffs. "Apologies..." he tries to act serious but he snorts before he has a full-blown laughter, his sharp rays spinning in amusment. "..I did not prepare a speech of pleading beforehand—not that I planned to plead anyway. Though, uh, what I plan to say?"

He clicks his tongue as he hums in thought. "I dont regret shit." He grins, showing off his canine teeth as he looks through his eyebrows and at the gods—to Lunar specifically who snarled at him.

The audiences burst into 'boo's and cursing—if they had anything with them, they definitely would've thrown it towards Eclipse, aiming to maim him. Eclipse may have hated the screaming as it begun to overwhelm, but he gritted his teeth as he kept smiling, not daring to look weak.

The crowd suddenly silences in a flash as a red hue is taken from their heads and they plop down onto their seats in a calmer state. Eclipse's eyes follow the direction of the hues, and he sees them magnet towards Solar; the god's hand was raised high, and he held what seemed to be an orb forming out of the anger he took out of the people's head. Solar didnt seem bothered as, despite his domain of rage, he is the calmest one out of the three judges before Eclipse.

Solar lowers his fist and molds the gathered anger into a spear that is bright red in color all over with a faint glow. He tosses it towards Eclipse and it clangs in front of him, and the god gestures for the immortal to take it. Though Eclipse is hesitant to do so, he nods his head in slight courtesy before he slides his foot under the spear and made it fly up, his knee bracing to keep it bouncing until he caught it in one swift motion.

This spear was far unique from any other weapon Eclipse has ever gotten his hands on. May it be the otherworldly glow or the godly aura the spear gave out, but it was just different—so light in his grasp but it held such strength Eclipse was willing to test out, but he had to wait until this trial was over... if he was ever even spared, that was, and Lunar's disgusted gaze made it clear that his chances of getting away with his crimes were lower than the pits of the River of Quietus itself.

"Solar—!" Lunar hisses at his fellow god, but he, too, had the same treatment as the audience as he leans into his seat in a quieter state of mind.

Solar makes Lunar's rage swirl around the spear before connecting it within the sharp tip, a blueish color infecting it before disappearing in the bloody shade. "We must not let our personal feelings interfere with the trial." Solar states as he looks over at Earth and gestures for her to continue.

"Why thank you, our Solar." Earth smiles at him before looking back at Eclipse. "Let us speak now that everything is settled, immortal one."

Eclipse rose an eyebrow. "Wait, 'speak'? Isnt this just a 'read, judge and sentence'?"

Earth laughs, her tone so sweet yet taunting as Eclipse is reminded of someone he once knew—someone he swore he felt hugging him at this very moment, but he brushed it off as nothing but the cold air.

"It should have been, yes." Earth nods. "But I am afraid we hadn't read through every offense in detail. I will merely summarize for my brothers, and then we will decide."

Oh, great. Eclipse now has to wait if they decided if they wanted him dead or not.

🌞 THE DAYCARE ATTENDANT 🌜

Sun & Moon updated ref!

Took me a bit to get the motivation finally, but here we are with an updated set of references for my DCA designs. Sorry for the lack of posting..! I can’t believe it’s pretty much the middle of the year now… It feels like February was just last month. Anyways! Onto the jesters!!

My AU primarily takes place after the events of that night, focusing on how the animatronics cope in the aftermath of The Vanny Virus. Sun and Moon are some of the most heavily affected mentally, due to their lack of contact with the other animatronics in the plex. Fortunately, now under new management, the jesters may start to heal—though only time will tell.

[full refs without text]

Below are refs of the DCA’s casing, as to better understand how they are constructed. Both of them have special built in visual features, allowing them to keep up with the little ones within the daycare!

Sun has advanced motion sensors, able to pick up where a little sunshine may be! He is more adept at scanning staff and customers for injuries and identification purposes, often very good at remembering faces! He is also better at parsing through subtle shifts in expression and body language, though he tends to overextend and assume the worse if someone indicates negativity. He is very attentive in that he will notice someone having a rainy day and spring into action to help, but that also means he’s susceptible to overanalyzing social cues and misinterpreting them. He can access Moon’s infrared (visualized by his blue pupils turning red) but he doesn’t tend to rely on it, especially since infrared vision is less effective in bright areas!

Moon also has motion sensors, though he is not as in-tune to them as Sun, therefore relying on his advanced night vision and infrared capabilities. He is not as good at remembering faces (often relying heavily on system records) but he is better with names and recognizing voices. Moon’s irises are red due to his infrared sensors, his pupils white due to night vision. He can simultaneously view both cameras at once, though think of it like watching a larger camera feed with a secondary feed displayed in the bottom corner. Moon is much more introverted than Sun, before and after the virus. (Though after the virus he tends to be prone to self isolation) He is fairly emotionally intelligent, but he doesn’t know how to act around others in a way that he feels Sun excels at easily. He tends to be more to the point with broken sentences, while Sun is more likely to over explain and repeat himself. Moon was created to be the villain to Sun’s hero, and despite him not being truly a bad person the virus made him into the boogeyman he played onstage.

Both animatronics, due to sharing the same body, have 360 joint rotation and are extremely flexible. If there is a separation in plating, there’s a good chance they have full range in that area. The only segmented part of their body that does not have rotation would be the chest piece! It is able to open much like Freddy’s stomach hatch, though there is no space dedicated for oversized birthday cakes or piñatas. Directly under their arms (often hidden by their sleeves) are two ‘U’ shaped cut outs. Aligned with these cut outs are a secondary set of arms snugly folded within the chest plate, ready to spring out when the DCA enters their shared ECLIPSE MODE. Nestled above these arms are a few smaller storage areas and their shared voicebox! One storage area is for general safe keeping, one something similar to a mini fridge, and the last (and smallest) basically being the equivalent of a trash can. This storage bin is used to collect food products as the DCA is able to ‘eat’ to an extent, though they rarely open their mouth. The feature is used to encourage picky eaters and sharing, as some children like to share their snacks with the DCA. Located within their stomach area is an advanced music box capable of mixing and matching keys in order to create new songs on the fly!

Their head shape takes on a vaguely humanoid appearance, having a protrusion in the back much like a skull’s cranium. However, Sun and Moon’s head and face structure are distinctly disproportionate to a human’s, lacking a more distinct nose and jaw. Unlike the canon design, this DCA does not have exposed wiring on the back of their faceplate, rather a slightly rounded compartment effectively holding their ‘brains’. The compartment is covered by a hand sewn bonnet, one Moon created for Sun as a gift. Their neck is covered by flexible casing making the general shape of an organic human neck, though over twice as long. A joint within the neck allows for the piece to be articulated, though to avoid the uncanny valley the DCA is designed to wear an oversized ruffle.

Composure wise, Sun is more animated and jittery, often needing to move or fidget in some way. He likes to skip and often fully involves himself into whatever interaction he’s taking part in. He’ll go from standing tall to crouching down, playing up his antics but never straying too far into what would be considered inhuman movements. He is more likely to use his hands to express himself while he talks. Moon is the exact opposite, often defaulting to deliberately slow or minimal movements. While he doesn’t play up his actions as much as Sun does, he will make a point to try and convey a purposeful feeling with his movements. When anxious, Moon can be surprisingly quick, though it comes off more in a harsh snapping manner than a more fluid motion. He often startles others as they don’t see him move. He does his best not to make himself feel bigger when interacting with others, keeping his posture down and his hand movements lacking. He does have a tendency to wring his hat or chew on a star shaped teether when highly anxious, as he’s grown to need a physical outlet after the events of the virus. Moon prefers to contort himself much more than Sun, often not concerned with how creepy they can look. (He does try to make it less obvious when interacting with others though, especially children.)

Sun and Moon also have deep pockets in their pants, one for Sun’s stuff and the other for Moon’s! Sun’s pocket usually contains a handful of Sunnydrops, a Fazbear bandaid box, individual alcohol wipes, and a mini tissue container. (Like the plastic ones you peel open!) Moon’s side has his hat (when not worn), a star shaped teething toy, a red foam stress ball, and a light up rubber ball. He does not keep Moondrops in his pockets due to their high melatonin content, rather keeping them locked away in a compartment near the naptime area.

Anyways!! That’s enough from me! Feel free to leave asks about these guys or their AU if you’re curious, I love yapping lol! Thank you for getting to the bottom of this post, Nighty Night!

HEADCANONS/LORE AT THE BOTTOM!

I needed to tweak my Solar design a little bit to separate it from the show…also to make him a LITTLE less bald. Have some Edd content to fuel your own headcanons and ideas!

Small TIP: I generalize “Eclipse’s” as I will for “Sun’s”, “Moon’s”, etc not because of their Universal Coding. I compare and contrast to show individuality or give context to biology and anatomy.

• Eclipse’s tend to overheat easily.

- This can be from faulty bodies, programming, or overexerting themself. (which is a common trait of an Eclipse.)

- This is why Eclipse’s often show more skin, to keep their vents free for easier cooling.

• Solar’s pants are damaged, so there are straps built into the core of it to help keep them up.

- It’s hard enough finding pants to fit 12 ft tall animatronics, it was even harder when he finally found ones…that were ripped and damaged. Though, because of such, that’s why they fit at all. It was an easy fix.

• Solar’s “split rays” use to look the exact same to Eclipse’s, however, over time in his original universe, he took a lot of injuries.

- Some of these injuries got to his rays, SPLITTING them on the edges. This becomes an appearance choice in the future to show his recovery from his past, and even embracing it.

• Solar has gloves, goggles, boots, and other things - but he prefers to keep them off until he needs them to keep his skin free - and his vents in certain areas.

- Vents are everywhere depending on the models. For those who overheat easily, they have much more than a typical sun or moon does.

- They can be in joints, plate crevices, etc. Most models just use mouths or - if their design permits - noses.

• Glass Animals is Solar’s #1 favorite band.

- He keeps his music preferences to himself.

• Solar’s eyes are the “default” eyes Eclipse’s have.

- Those slits that Eclipse has for pupils? They’re triggered, not at ease.

• Solar’s eye “slit” while at ease is only visible at certain angles, in certain lighting.

- It’s a piece of his eye to help digest more colors and visual information. It’s not an appearance trait.

• TW Disclaimer, none of his scars are self inflicted.

- They come from working, fighting, or accidents.

• Solar loves visiting the beach - normally at sunset.

- The colors of the sky at that time of day is what he strives to feel like everyday.

- Although he easily overheats, he loves feeling warm.

- This man would destroy a sandy hotdog and NOT be affected by the sandy crunch. freak.

• “Solar” is Solar’s first name.

[I had this idea before Solar even existed, the fact “Nice Eclipse” changed his name to “Solar” was a huge green flag for me.]

- Eclipse’s full name IS “Solar Eclipse”.

- Eclipse calls himself by his last name because he doesn’t believe in first-name basis for himself. It’s too sentimental and at the time of having his name chosen, he believed he deserved to be called by his last name - as it is a sign of respect and authority. Nowadays, Eclipse simply hates his first name.

- Solar had similar ideas at first but was still very new to names. It felt wrong for a very long time until he met the Celestial Family.

- He now allows himself to be called Solar to show trust and connection with his family. He believes they don’t deserve to be disconnected from any part of their family, including himself, despite any issues from his past.
