I draw him in an astronaut!

Officially finished the Main Six Sides Themes for my project, Map of the Mindscape! Hope you guys enjoy them!

@thatsthat24

(Fun Fact: Each side has their own Unique Instrument! In the rest of the OST, you can tell who is in which scene by their instruments)

(Also: My favorite is definitely Logan's, followed closely by Patton and Virgil)

Fander Fic Rec Friday (#33)

(The Mer-y Month of May)

Siren Boy by Ended_Flames Mer AU (Roceit) Rating: G Janus is half-siren whose immunity to their song has secured him easy work manning the night watch on board ships traveling through threatened waters. One night, he decides to sing back to the song he hears from the water. Unsurprisingly, this attracts the curious attention of the singer. Notes: A lightly angsty and very cute Roceit fic. (On a more personal note, my fic Salt for Salt would not exist in the form that it does without a key inspirational nudge from this fic.)

Anthropophobia by Random_Sanders_Sides_Gt Mer AU (Gen) Rating: T Sirens have a reputation for violence, their size and ferocity and the irresistible lure of their song more than earning them a fearful reputation among humans as terrors of the sea. Meanwhile, the average siren views humans with the same instinctive terror and revulsion that most humans reserve for spiders. For better or worse, Virgil winds up in the hands of a siren whose attitude towards humans is anything but average. Notes: In which Remus is a giant disaster with an appreciation for the grotesque, which, to the despair of basically everyone else in this fic, by siren standards happens to include humans. (There is also a role-swapped version of this that is a lot less angsty and much more fun.)

leave your shaded hollow by delimeful Mer AU (Gen) Rating: T Injured and desperate, Virgil tries to escape pursuit by hiding in a cave on the edge of the deep sea trenches. Needless to say, he wasn't expecting to run into the leviathan that already called the place his home. The very young and very curious leviathan. Notes: In which Virgil is scared but Logan is a big softie (emphasis on big).

The Terrors of the Sea by HazelR Mer AU (Gen) Rating: T Janus enjoys scaring humans brought to his island for tribute. Unfortunately, his newest visitor didn't come unprepared, and as his usual tricks turn out to be shockingly ineffective, Janus finds himself dealing with a human that is a lot more trouble than he had expected. Notes: In which Janus just wants to have a little fun being a terror, but Virgil is on a mission and he won't be denied.

All Bottled Up by Random_Sanders_Sides_Gt Mer AU (Gen) Rating: G Janus is a very tiny mer who winds up in some very big trouble when he winds up washing up on the beach in a bottle. And finding himself tossed into an aquarium in some human's home isn't much of an improvement. At least he's not entirely without company. Notes: In which Janus is having a Bad Time, Patton and Logan make a Big Mistake. A mildly bittersweet ending...after a little bit of terrorizing.

Changing Tides by LadyoftheWoods Mer AU (Gen) Rating: G Virgil is rescued after going overboard from his father's ship and finds himself in the care of several magical beings. Unfortunately, that first rescue is really just the start... Notes: Some angsty hurt/comfort with protective sides rallying around Virgil to give him the happy ending he deserves. (This story does handle themes of child abuse and suicide, so tread carefully.)

Chlorine by Bibliosmia13 Mer AU (Gen) Rating: G Virgil has been held in captivity by humans for three years. Though recently liberated from his previous abusive owner, he's not ready to trust the intentions of his new benefactors. Though he might be forced to risk it anyway when he learns that a friend is in danger... Notes: Drama, hurt/comfort, mistrust, action. (Also, this one is tagged as gen, but it does have mild notes of Prinxiety.)

On the Outside by TypicallyUntypical Mer AU (Analoginceit) Rating: T Tired of loving and losing his loves to another, Janus chooses solitude. Unfortunately, his efforts to leave his friends to their happily ever after with the king goes badly (almost tragically) wrong. Notes: Everyone is Bad At Feelings, and poor communication nearly kills.

WIPs

Curiosity Caught the Merman by KieraElieson Mer AU (Loceit) Rating: T The origins of merfolk are as varied as the waters they call their home. Logan, born from the sea itself, is unfamiliar with human things. Rescued from a net by unfamiliar mer, he finds himself struggling against the weakness of his injuries, a frustrating language barrier, and an overwhelming mountain of new questions. The one thing he does know for sure is that he would love to know his rescuer, Janus, better than he does... Notes: Only one chapter so far, but this one has some interesting worldbuilding right up front, and a lot of promising mysteries seeded in for later.

That morning, the kitchen was quiet, save the clicking of the spoon as it lazily swirled tea. Remus’ fingers itched to be stuffed deep in his ear canals, tearing them from the inside; anything to save him from the booming silence. 

Instead, he kept staring.

Janus’ eyes were raw, puffy. Remus made no comment about it.
