Sometimes items slip out the human's conscious. Objects that, if pointed out, a person immediately remembers existing. But until that moment? Up until they remember, the object is lost. Sometimes these objects wash up on the shores of Pixies' Corp. The Pixies call these foreign objects: Found Things.

Most of the time its massive socks, or a giant clear lid for some tupperware. Other times, they find rarities such as human phones! Pixies enjoy scrapping Found Things, and ditching work to play with Found Things.

Although Jorgen usually ends up sending the items back down to Earth.

Magic AU!!!! ✨

My friend! Hiiiiii! Thanks for the ask! ❤️

This is the thing I'm working on the most at the moment. So far it's 37k words of a world in which Billy has magic powers and some things happened like in canon and a lot of others didn't. Like the fact Neil sold Billy's car before they left California and the piece of junk he buys for Billy in Hawkins is haunted. Or the fact that there are a couple of people hell bent on making friends with the new guy in town. Like one Steve Harrington... 😱

Long snippet? Yeah!

"Sorry to bother you, could you please give a thing to your brother for me?"

"I don't have-"

"Your step brother," Steve amends. "It's for Billy."

God, they're so alike, these two. You so much as forget the step part and they immediately bite your head off, worse than if you accused them of a heinous crime.

Max crosses her arms on her chest and stands her ground, looks him up and down like he's a gnat. Like she hasn't decided yet how to get rid of him, but has a few painful options in mind.

Steve places his folded piece of paper tied with red thread on the top of the nearest box and steps back.

"Just give this to Billy, please. It's nothing bad, I swear. Thanks."

He starts walking away and hears Maxine's steps move from the lawn to the sidewalk, she calls:

"Why should I?"

Sounds like she's insulted by Steve. By his assumption that she will do what he asked her to.

He turns around and walks backwards towards his car, puts a bit of King Steve in his smile as he says:

"Because you're curious to see what it says. What Billy will do."

*eyes fic anxiously* This is gonna be massively long... And with some good ol' cosmic horror here and there because we're worth it!

Amalgus!Jazz in shark tank or algae tank AU

Jazz is doing Prowl in his base amalgus shape. OP walks in while they're knotted together, thinks they're fighting and tries to separate them to save Prowl. Prowl holds onto Jazz so he doesn't get hurt from pulling the knot out and OP catches on to the sounds not being pain pretty quick. Completely beet red face (or w/e color tf blush is), backs off enough for Prowl to visibly stake his claim (clinging to Jazz and hissing at OP). Jazz is also beet red. His face slips and this is how OP finds out he has an Amalgus working for him, as his black hand.

TWO KNOTS.

Prowl is very stuffed and he will hold on best he can, tail wrapped around Jazz and hissing and biting at OP. It takes OP a nanoklik to recognize this spikey monster is Jazz and Jazz is more than a little mortified.

Prowl gives him loving nibbles. You are very lovely all spiky. Very lovely. Now back to fragging.

Today me and Bill went to the Aquarium! :D We had a lot of fun there and Bill even rode some fish when the staff wasn’t looking!

But, shortly after these pictures, the shark tried to eat him and after the second picture he was temporarily blind cause he got sand in his eye and kept looking at the projector :/.

Anyways, I’ll show y’all some more pictures of us at the aquarium soon and maybe that other trip we went on last week! :>

Also, if you're still doing the wip ask game, I'd love to hear about the Silkie story and sci-fi mermaids!

yes, I am absolutely still doing the WIP one, thank you for the ask!!

selkie story is my big WIP that I'm currently sharing on ao3, it's been ages since I last updated but I am still working on it and have the next few chapters all plotted out! It is basically an Alex Rider AU where Alex is a selkie (a mythical creature that can transform from a seal into a human and back by taking off/putting on its sealskin/fur coat). I don't even remember how I came up with this idea, but I love seals and selkies and folklore and it turned out to be a perfect analogy for how Alex doesn't fit in anywhere — he can't connect with normal school kids anymore (also probably never really could really fit with them to begin with since he's not only an orphan, but also Ian was a really weird parent), and he doesn't fit in the world of espionage (since he's still a kid), and he struggles to carve a space of his own. So this story became an interesting way to explore that. (plus seals are adorable 🦭)

sci-fi mermaids is an original story idea I had! I was envisioning a middle grade graphic novel when I first thought of this but I think it would work well as a normal fiction novel too. The premise is that mermaids, once thriving in wild oceans, have dwindled in number due to an exotic “pet” trade. In the name of conservation, many mermaids are kept in sanctuaries where scientists study their strange abilities and strive to create the "perfect" breed of mermaid through genetic engineering.

The main story centres around a young mermaid adopted into a wealthy family, whose children are obsessed with them. She often wonders about the ocean, and what it must be like to live with other mermaids. But she feels ungrateful to think of a life away from her family, who've given her a massive tank, and several natural ponds, and let her watch whatever she wants on tv, and spend so much time taking care of her and entertaining her and including her as part of the family. Especially when she's seen on the news of how badly some pet mermaids are kept...I'm still working out the actual plot but I have so much research and sketches of the characters and settings! Maybe I'll dig some of those up and share them on here someday.

A shark tank Au doodle

I like to think that the tank could be built in a way where the deep sea sirens can swim up to the other sirens

I was also thinking that my siren would find it funny to sneak up on other sirens during the closing hours (when the lights are off)

Shark tank Au by @maxbruiser

[all-purpose-dish-soap]

So as we know sharks are very territorial and sometimes little attention whores, they tend to love divers and get territorial over them with other sharks. So I was wondering if Price ever gets protective or territorial over remora reader with the others, or if he feels miffed when she spends time with the others more than him? If some part of him likes her cleaning him and only him?

using this as a follow up to shark mer Price being a territorial bastard >:)

to recap: Price is super protective over you--you're his territory--but you spending time with the Ghost, Gaz, and Soap doesn't bother him because they're his territory too.

however this does not extend to anyone outside the 141. this is a problem because you're naturally curious. because you're a remora mer, right?

and way too friendly for your own good. and extra extra prone to lapsing into a fawn response instead of a fight or flight response.

so you can't really blame Price for being kind of overprotective.

when he's not around, you can bet you're juuuuust dumb enough to swim right up to, say, a diver. or even the small diving boats humans putter around in near the reef.

you might meet a friendly human diver like perhaps Alex Keller (◕▿◕✿)

who for sure doesn't mind your poking and prodding and general lack of boundaries.

he's totally chill about it. actually he's into it. he loves your curiosity! swimming with mer is rare. being this close to one is a dream.

you're basically doing this (video).

you're idly aware that he's examining you as you're examining him, but it doesn't stop you from checking out his suit, his tank, his legs--weird plastic fin-feet he's got--you'd even pull his goggles right off his face if he's not careful.

you have more curiosity than sense. so does he.

because the moment Price sees you, he immediately pushes his way into the middle of this little... mutual exploration you're allowing to happen.

more accurately, he snatches you away. diver Alex is lucky if he escapes with a glare instead of a warning bite.

you, meanwhile, are fucking grounded.

plead ignorance if you want, but you know it's against the rules to do what you did.

you were sort of hoping you could avoid punishment by acting cute. or by not getting caught in the first place. idiot.

no dice. Price takes you straight back to his cave--and you are to stay there. you'd better stay put on your own free will, too. Price isn't above tying you up. he knows Gaz will feed you anyway.

and Gaz is the only one allowed in. if he's good.

it sucks for everyone when you're grounded. Soap is bored and horny out of his mind. Ghost says nothing, but he conspicuously moves his usual day-sleeping spot closer to the entrance of the cave.

how long can you expect it to last? you're not sure. maybe until Price isn't fuming at the thought of you getting snatched up like a goldfish in an aquarium net.

more mer au / more Price / masterlist

kim leehan x reader [fluff, dad!leehan, fem!mum!reader, use of leehan’s real name]

a/n - i’ve been wanting to write a dad!au about ANY of the members of ANY of the groups and then also aquarium date with leehan and i went to an aquarium today and saw this happening irl and its culminated in this…

13:02 - “mummy,” sua mumbled, gripping onto your hand tightly, her small body almost totally hidden behind your leg. “i’m scared.”

you gasped dramatically, “you’re scared?!” the 2-year-old nodded in response, pressing her face into your thigh.

the entrance of the aquarium lingered in front of you, darker than the reception area and gift shop behind you. you could appreciate how it might be scary for a 2-year-old, but with her dad’s genes, her water-based name, and all the effort it took to get her and the baby strapped to your chest out the door and to the aquarium, you could only pray she would learn to enjoy it.

“donghyun-ah,” you called, looking to your husband who was already staring at the fish in the tanks down the hallway. “sua needs you.”

“what’s wrong, princess?” he asked, noticing your daughter’s shy look. he came up to the pair of you, crouching so he was at her eye level; she flopped into her dad’s arms.

“it’s scary,” she whispered.

“scary?!” he exclaimed, “sua-ya, fish are our friends! do you know how much your daddy likes fish?”

she pulled out of his body, looking at him with a slight curiosity before shaking her head.

“they’re my most favourite animal in the entire world! plus, these fish here are just the cousins and aunts and uncles of the fish we have at home, princess,” leehan smiled at his daughter who was now listening with increasing comfort and curiosity.

“and grandmas and grandpas?” she asked, already looking past her dad to the fish.

“of course!” he exclaimed, standing up and taking her tiny hand in his, “come on, we have to introduce ourselves, right? we’re basically family!”

sua giggled at her dad’s odd behaviour, jumping alongside leehan, who was walking, to the first tank.

“hello fish,” leehan said, unfaltering confidence as he waved, “i’m kim donghyun.”

sua giggled, looking curiously at the fish swimming past.

“sua, look at this one!” he exclaimed, crouching down again as a big catfish swam against the glass. “go on, introduce yourself.”

sua remained shy, hiding herself in her dad’s side as she waved, talking in a small voice. “hello catfish. i’m kim sua.”

leehan put on a funny voice, replying as the catfish, “hello kim sua. nice to meet you.”

sua’s loud laugh rang through the aquarium, suddenly filled with excitement as she ran to the next tank.

“some of these fish are in really terrible conditions, you know,” leehan said to you, as the two of you strolled after your daughter.

you nodded, smiling as you brushed his hair back, your other hand cradling the baby on your chest as he slept softly, “i know, love. but maybe if we come here often enough, she’ll learn to take after her father.”

“she already is! look at her,” leehan smiled proudly, watching sua’s face, millimetres from the glass, as she waved to each fish that passed, “we waited too long to bring her.”

you smiled, agreeing with a hum as you finally reached your over-excited toddler at the next tank.

“hello, i’m kim leehan,” he introduced himself to the fish, turning to look at you expectantly. “mummy?”

laughing, you looked down to your daughter who looked up at you with excited, shining eyes, resembling that of her father’s. “hello fish! i’m y/n.”

sua giggled, looking back at the fish, “i’m kim sua!” she suddenly looked to her little brother in the papoose on your body, “and this is kim haesu but he can’t talk yet.”

leehan looked as if his heart would burst from the cuteness of his daughter as he leaned down to kiss her head.

“good girl,” he smiled, “come on, let’s keep going. i’ve heard there’s sharks here!”
