#within a sun and moonlit cove fic

*punches wall*

Somehow, I was able to find some motivation, so here’s part of the draft for the next chapter of Within a sun and moonlit cove.

[trashy-corvian]

Speaking of fics, are there any other really good ones for FNAF security break that you would recommend? I have read both of bamsara's.

Sup anon!

I'm only reading x reader fnaf fanfics(exept one) so there's that. Also, as far as i'm aware, all of them use they\them pronouns for the reader.

Celestial Syzygy by @echoingkarma is just -chef's kiss- snatched my wig with their Sun's characterization. Go read it!

copper cogs rusted through by @paper-lilypie actually pushed me into drawing for the fnaf fandom, can't reccomend them enough

"Luminescent Charm", "The Sea Jesters are Real Science", "Within a Sun and a Moonlit Cove", "Song for a Siren" and "Leviathan's Song" are mermaid au fics which i love to bits!

Lofi Beats to Capture Children to by @dana-chan-the-control-brain is an amazing fic about the origin of the Daycare Attendant and

the trauma

Twin Animatronics With Too Much Time on Their Hands by @twinanimatronics is sequel to the lo-fi story with slightly less trauma and more shenanigans(also memes)

Feel free to reccomend your favorite fics in the comments\reblogs! And if any other authors mentioned here have a tumblr, tell me and i edit the post

I’m hoping I’ll be posting the next chapter of Within a Sun and Moonlit Cove by early to mid February. For now, I thought I’d share two snippets from part of a future chapter of meeting with Eclipse, since the images made me snicker while writing it.

Blood mention but no one’s hurt.

Well, I was poking at a within a sun and moonlit cove chapter and took a break on it to work on a 3/4 edited chapter of ‘this wasn’t covered in the employee handbook’.

So I think that one will be updated first, and then my hope is that since mermay is next month, seeing mermay art will inspire me again to work on within a moon and sunlit cove (tfw you went off your initial outline and have to work a chapter or two in to get back on track-but that means more mer shark bois being soft and mc being oblivious).

[because-why-not-a-fnaf-blog-too]

Been a little awhile oops.

Needed to take a break from my fnaf fics and step away. Realized that I’d been close to burnout or was experiencing burnout. Feeling much better now and I’m poking at the fics to see which one speaks to me.

Within a sun and moonlit cove is most likely, possilby the homicidal jester series one.

Don’t know when I’ll post put I’ll drop a message here when I’m ready to post something

Edit: my mind decided on the jester series one since I have a chapter nearly edited. I’ll still poke at the outline of within a sun and moonlit cove but apparently eclipse still has me by the throat months later.

Edit 2: ended up updating the eclipse series one

I will start:

Sometimes, while working on Within a Sun and Moonlit Cove, I get the urge to write a cryptid Sun and Moon fic, so I get sidetracked at times and work on another wip.

1- not good for me to write the mer sharks while thinking about cryptid creature lurking about in the forest or caves or smth, ready to snatch unsuspecting prey (friend) to hide them away.

2- I want to focus on playful manners in the mer shark bois, and the confusion of how to court human friend; not the feral possessiveness of the cryptid or weird head bobbing as said cryptid circles and inspects prey (friend) in obvious curiously. Different moods entirely.

3- I’d like to write a cryptid thing but I’m desperately trying to work on current wips and not add another. Who knows how long that will last, but I’m hoping to make progress on other wips first.

*screaming*

Ahem.

Hi, yeah, so I may have had a boost of inspiration from that video, so I’ll see if any of the fics will word for me.

I am doing this for febuwhump this year.

Title: Ripples of Water

Summary: A series of whump one-shots for Within a Sun and Moonlit Cove, covering events that do not happen in the main fic, but could have happened in alternate timelines, if something went wrong or differently.

Aka the try not to cry, fanfic edition (if you like within a sun and moonlit cove).

FYI I’m doing a febuwhump prompt list on the side, for Within a Sun and Moonlit Cove, of alternate timelines if something went wrong or happened differently (aiming for 1000 words or less a ch).

Mostly because I wanted to write some whump angst sadness that won’t be in the main storyline, or at least not to the extent I’ll write with the prompts.

[because-why-not-a-fnaf-blog-too]

Within a sun and moonlit cove, time skip reunion be like:

Moon: instinctively thinks you’re an intruder *bites and looms* sulks in guilt and shame when he realizes who he was menacing. Showers you in tiny gifts from a distance with a small written apology.

Sun: hears that you’re there and as soon as he sees you flops his excited self across the sand, rapidly chirping away as his head fins flutter happily. Faceplants many times on his way before you get a great big hug, nuzzles and a delighted warbling of ‘friend!’ Won’t let go. Wants to take you for a swim.

Moon: *jealous fish noises* underwater in the dark where he can see. Can hear his twin being happy and Moon wants snuggles too but GUILT.

First chapter post 8/7/22

Next update: TBD, but likely whenever I end up writing it.

Future wip ideas:

Three ideas floating around but will keep them on paper/computer for now. Idea three took the lead

-first idea is basically a nauseating mushy romance between the reader and sun/moon. But it would be post fnaf sb because I think there’s enough floating around in the daycare itself. Fun to see how sun/moon react if placed in other situations like finding their way into one of those play places and everyone working there’s just like. All right then. New coworker I guess that can help keep an eye on the playing kids. *points to the reader* you have past experience with machines so therefore congrats, you get to have a roommate and coworker to drive into work. Sun is ecstatic. Moon is reserved. Reader is all are you f’ing kidding me?

-another idea is a post fnaf security breach where everything is rebuilt but not open since main animatronics need to be rebuilt (and Freddy is missing). Oc works with sun and moon (one body) but the oc needs them to help wrangle a new animatronic found out in the city nearby (security puppet-for this fic, they’d be sentient since the marionette was in lefty/security puppet could be put in main area). Suffice to say, the security puppet does not like its freedom revoked and does its damndest to escape. Slated to be Platonic. Enemies to friends and strangers to friends.

Idea three- basically the mc worked with sun/moon and is an after fnaf sb where fazbear co rebuilds but it’s smaller scale like old locations but this place has two floors/a bit more spacious: daycare goes into pirate cove, a stage in a dining room, a few security offices, maintenance underground, upper floors hold fazerblaster, arcade and a food court. Lower floors daycare/pirate cove, main stage, entrance area with merch stores. Essentially mc grappling with the face that sun/moon had a virus that wiped their memory aka don’t remember mc. Kicker is that there was a relationship and time spent together that trinkets and gifts accumulated so mc has to decide if they want to start over or if they just keep it as friends. Up to sun/moon mostly, as they are both curious about the new friend who looks so sad when they see them.

Currently on hiatus:

Whispers in the dark

Generic 1st pov fic with security guard at fazbear frights who gives Springtrap a scrub down because yeesh what a smell and then goes to oops you’re actually ‘alive’ and the guard is ready to throw hands. Stop being so dramatic bunny man. Also had interludes with marionette and other animatronics. Outline more or less down. Motivation was low.

Unedited draft snippet of ch 5 of sun and moon mer x reader fic. At this rate ch 7 will end up being the time skip.

[because-why-not-a-fnaf-blog-too]

Draft of Ch 12 for Within a Sun and Moonlit Cove changed into the majority of it dealing with mc finding Sun attacking Moon (who’s mostly defending) near the aunts house, because a certain someone can’t wrap their head around sharing and is jealous over the scale thing. This leads to the reappearance of Monty getting to the twins as the fight turns more violent between the two (and there is an appearance by Freddy and the others).

The whole situation completely backfires for Sun, though, since Moon will get to stay for a few days with mc in aunt Dot’s house, recuperating.
