Seven 👹

Also ty!!! He’s so sassy I love him

“Seven.”

Spoilers for Liminal Space Chapter 3: ☀️🌙✨

OKAY BUT HERE ME OUT

I was obsessed with the idea of Sun counting down before he chases reader for the scene. Now I just randomly say Seven to my roommate or to Night because this scene lives rent free in my head. The catwalk scene is one of the very first scene ideas I had and I wasn’t sure how I was gonna top it. Fast forward a few months later and this is just the beginning of Sun being completely unhinged.

As always you’re work is incredible @its-always-nightshift

[its-always-nightshift]

Here’s a drawing of Soleil from @venomous-qwille ‘s fic Ghost In The Machine on Ao3. French Sun, my beloved. J’aime qu’il français de Canadien. Je suis aussi, mais je suis Cajun. When I found out he was also French I was SO stoked, AND he’s the most deranged? Ça c’est très excitement, quite a character. I’ll also be posting a drawing of Misuta sometime later. Maybe Fool as well if I find the time?

Anyway thanks for GITM Qwille! This is a redraw of a scene since I’ve been catching up on a bunch of chapters I missed. The scene snippet is below.

Spoilers for GITM Chapters 20+ below:

Here’s a more accurate version too, more silhouetted:

[its-always-nightshift]

I FORGOT HOW UNHINGED MY COMMENTS WERE OMG

I’m gonna post some of my favorite Comments from @its-always-nightshift reading through chapter 2!

“His glaze locked onto yours as he speaks with frost covered words”

Artist: “glaze”

Me: I’m gonna Freddy f*cking k*ll myself.

~~~

“What was worse, losing your job because you tampered with an animatronic, or being threatened by one?”

Artist: oh reader, you poor, naive, little f*ck.

~~~

“With a slight tug and pull, you manage to get to cord out, a few sparks flying slightly and his body twitches, then relaxing once again.”

Artist: gosh this part. I am rattling my cage like a monkey with rabies.

~~~

“”I’d love to!!” He’s quickly on his feet and good lord he’s fucking tall.”

Artist: I cackle. I laugh with humor. I laugh so hard the glass vase holding delicate flowers fall off the table and shatter. I continue wheezing anyway.

~~~

“This was the first time you were thankful that there weren’t any other human employees working today.”

Artist: it’s about to be your last lmao

~~~

“”F*ck!” You remembered your order guide, and it was still at your party desk. You could see Moon’s gaze in the reflection of the computer narrow at your choice words.”

Artist: I LAUGH. I WHEEZE LIKE SOMEONE THAT JUST GOT KARATE CHOPPED IN THE JUGULAR.

~~~

““For the one who awoke me from my eternal sleep, I would do anything to aid you in your journey.””

Artist:

Me to Moon rn: GOD you’re. Go to bed.

~~~

“You knew he was smirking but you did everything to ignore it as you left the room, Moon swiftly following close behind.”

Artist: punk a** b*itch.

~~~

“If you had brought your order guide with you to D7 you wouldn’t have to make this walk all the way back, but then again you weren’t expecting to wake a sleeping robot. Your first day is going stellar.”

Artist: D7!?!?!?! MORE LIKE DEEZ NUTS!!!! H A H GOT EEM!!!

For context they made a comment about how it was funny and was making smaller comments about it earlier on in the chapter but said they wouldn’t say the joke unless I wrote it again. I said there wasn’t another one in the chapter (completely forgetting about this final one and thus… the deez nuts joke was made. 😂

~~~

“You were frozen in that stare as you felt his claws begin to sink deeper into the flesh of your shoulder.”

Artist: CROWD CHEERS. HOOTS. HOLLERS EVEN. ONE GUY IN THE CROWD PASSES OUT FROM EXCITEMENT. YOU GO TO LUNCH.

Anywaysss 😂 you kill me in the best way @its-always-nightshift and I’m so honored to have you as a beta reader and as the artist for Liminal Space. 💕✨

Chapter Three is almost done being written and i should be editing it soon!! I hope you’re looking forward to it cuz once it’s out they can finally post more art! 😂

Yall seem to like Liminal Moon, so I’m giving you more art of him as a treat. The first one is a scene gif of chapter 2 of Liminal Space by @liminalspaceau. The second one is Liminal Moon comforting reader, also as a treat. Technically, it’s completely spoiler-free, so I believe it’s alright to post it, LOL.

Also! If you’ve asked me any questions in my ask box, I will be answering them! I have finals coming up but after that I can draw again :>

[its-always-nightshift]

[its-always-nightshift]

Hiii, I’m the friend artist and also the “do it coward” friend! :>

When I tell you I have SOOOOO much art that I can’t post yet due to spoilers, it’s a very high number. 90% of what I’ve drawn I cannot post, but the floodgates will begin to open once chapter 3 is posted! Give Liminal Space a kudos for me 💖

Q&A Liminal Space

What is Sun and Moon’s dynamic?

• Sun and Moon are two separate bots that were put together. (plot points you’ll find out about later :D) They were not created as twins but as each other’s perfect half. They were made to complete each other and Sun would do anything for Moon. (They’re boyfriends your honor.)

Where did you get the idea?

• Liminal Space was actually based on a dream I had back in January. I told me friend about it and jokingly made the comment “Yeah, that would actually be a cool fan fic.” To which they immediately responded, “do it coward.” Fucking bet. So here we are 3 months later!

What are there Tropes?

• This story will contain a polyamorous Romance between Sun, Moon and the Reader! (You!). There is definitely some miscommunication but don’t worry it won’t get dragged out cuz oh boy those can get exhausting. There wont be any jealousy between Sun and Reader or Moon and Reader, Sun if anything is just very protective of Moon and doesn’t want to see him get hurt. Moon is a notorious flirt with the Reader btw so teehee.

So… what’s the Romance?

• While it is a romance… there will be no smut. Tbh I’m not comforting writing that so if it does “happen”, it happens behind closed doors. Besides the Reader (you) is written as gender neutral so like… not sure how I WOULD even write that lol.

Is there a Y/n?

• Yes, and no. While it is an X Reader you will not be referred to as Y/N. The story will mostly address you as well.. You!

How violent will it get?

• Things are going to get very violent and will result in many multiple near death experiences. There will be descriptions of bodily injury and it may even get gory depending on the ideas that flow. I will give trigger warnings if things start to look really intense for the story, so there won’t be any surprises that you aren’t prepared for!

Is it a one off?

• While I only officially have writings for Liminal Space there is talks and small snippets for an after story and possibly a squeal! Keep a look out for updates.

Is there an ending?

• Yes I have an ending for Liminal Space, and I’m happy to report it will be a happy ending. (Maybe a little bittersweet).

Is there Liminal Space Art?

• Any and all official Liminal Space art is done by my wonderful friend @its-always-nightshift ! Please check out their work because they’re incredible and I love them to pieces.

Can I draw fan art?

• ABSOLUTELY. I’m an absolute fanatic when it comes to art so please go nuts!! Make sure to tag me so I can see it! 💕💕

Did you use ai to write?

• Nope! Most of my ideas have come from my own thoughts or from my friend who’s been helping me build this story since I came up with it in January. :)

Can I use it for ai?

• Absolutely not. :) Thank you for understanding.

Can I ask you or the artist questions about Liminal Space?

• Of course!! There might be some questions that the artist or myself can’t answer yet for spoiler reasons, but please feel free to ask any questions!

Where can I read it?

• Liminal Space is posted on AO3!! Chapter 1 and 2 are official uploaded and Chapter 3 is currently in this works.

I will be updating this post with any frequently asked questions!

Happy Reading!

“This action will have consequences later”

Also I love the way you color-coded the text

A snippet from Chapter 2!! Chica is completely innocent your honor I swear, Monty just hates being late to things.

Chica - Pink

Monty - Green

Reader - Blue

~~~

Chica has a pair of fraternal twins at her sides, the girl's blonde hair is covering her face as she timidly holds onto Chica's hand. Her more extroverted brother is adorning a Freddy t-shirt and a birthday hat, smiling brightly and eagerly waiting for their father to finish taking their photo.

Chica gives the children and the parents a warm and enthusiastic goodbye while they leave, and Monty eyes you curiously as his arms cross over his chest.

“Yer new.” The gator's words were simple, and his voice was slightly gruff and robotic. He focuses on you as a swirling storm of uncertainty rolls deep within your stomach.

“Oh yeah, they’re the new party host I was telling you guys about last week! They hired a human expert to help with the parties now!” Her chipper voice hums as she walks towards you, giving you a playful wink. “It's good to see you again, friend. Is today your first official day?”

You nod and the discomfort from Monty’s stare is soothed away in her presence. “Yeah, I'm actually looking for the party desk again.”

Chicas hand meets yours holding it between her much larger metal fingers. “Well you're headed in the right direction, just keep going that way until you pass by Arcade 23, they’re labeled right by their entryway frames, and then you’re going to take a left past the family bathroom and it’ll be right there! Can’t miss it.” As her hand leaves yours, you notice she leaves a small passkey for you.

Your brows furrow slightly as you look down at the passkey then back up to her. She gives you a large smile and another wink, this one much more mischievous. “That’s for the door to your office and it also has access to your party supplies in storage room D7.”

Monty’s eyes narrow noticeably as a mixture of emotions cross his face, his gaze now looking at Chica. His arms are still crossed, but it seems more tense. Before you or Monty could speak Chica pipes up once more.

”You might need to make a list and order more supplies, those staff bots are not the best at organizing so there’s going to be a lot of things missing, old, ruined or discontinued. After you do that, I suggest ordering your supplies on one of the staff computers.” Her arms move behind her back, her large warm smile never wavering as Monty looks away from her.

“Thanks Chica, you’ve been such a big help. What would I do without you?” Her metal hands reach up to her cheek in flattery and she giggles sweetly.

“Aren’t you sweeter than apple pie?” Monty’s eyes roll and he huffs in slight annoyance.

Here’s Theater AU Moon! Comes with his own Moon-shaped aerial ring for the stage!

This is the official design of Sun for my Theater AU!! I love him so much and I honestly need to draw him more. He’s so character.

Click for more information about the AU:

What is the Theater AU?

A fic currently in the works which takes canon Sun & Moon and plays with the concept of them being theater bots before being transferred (unwillingly) to the daycare! Half of the story revolves around when they were theater bots, and the other half is about the daycare. The drawing above is Sun when he was a theater bot! Sun in the daycare looks very close to canon in design with a few different details. And by theater, I mean they had some very cool acts. Moon has my favorite performance in the story so far.

Is there a y/n for the Theater AU?

No, you follow along the story of a nonbinary oc named Roy who dabbles in software engineering. You can, however, imagine that Roy is the pizzaplex’s nickname for y/n and pretend as such! Either way is fine by me, but the fic will be tagged as oc insert.

Have you written any chapters/made any art for the Theater AU yet?

Very few, but that’s only because I have to wait until summer to flesh it out properly. I do, however, have many bullet points for the storyline written down already as well as a couple of snippets and have a very good idea of how I want the fic to play out.

What kind of personality does Roy have?

Roy is a very down-to-earth, analytical, logic-oriented type of person. Roy has a lot of patience and I think Sun sometimes needs that kind of patience because of his jitteriness and overall bouncy personality. They’ve known the boys for a while and always took an interest in the way they work. They might even be the reason Roy went into software development and specialized in AI.

Can I use your art/writing for AI?

Absolutely not. That is not what AI should be used for. Thank you for your cooperation.

How technical will the fic be?

I want to mix my own experience as a computer scientist into the story a little while also making the explanations easy enough for anyone to enjoy and maybe find their own technical passion out of it. I will still mention some fun comp sci technical jargon for the purpose of enunciating Roy’s professionalism. On the robotics side, my own experience lacks, but I will try my best to get as accurate as I can by studying the canon boys.

Does Roy get to smooch the boys?

I’m still debating this, honestly! Maybe in some sequel story or side-comics, but the main fic is meant to focus on the characterization of Sun & Moon, so we’ll see. The boys can’t move their faces similarly to canon, but they would happily accept a smooch on the cheek.

Who do you like more, Sun or Moon?

Oh boy, I love them both! Moon is very scary and I’d never go back to that level in security breach if I can avoid it, but he makes for such a funky character full of potential storytelling. Sun is definitely my favorite of the two though. When I tell friends about a fic I’ve recently read from any of the fantastic DCA stories, I always ramble about how Sun’s character was written whether it was sunhinged, emotionally haunting, or absolutely sweet! When I played Help Wanted 2 I was overjoyed by his character. He deserves to be a little sassy sometimes, as a treat. It is no different in the Theater AU; he has his sassy and sweet moments.

Moon’s design I am still working on, so keep an eye out for him!! Also let me know if you take an interest in my boys by asking questions about them! It helps me find their personalities better and inspires me to do more. Thanks for reading!
