#Fantasy AU short

[a-kind-of-merry-war]

A guy doing marine research into phytoplankton is far out to sea and waiting for the samples to be ready when he spots a fast-moving ripple in the water up ahead.

Fully aware that this spot is home to a migratory orca pod, he assumes he's stumbled across an orca hunting a seal and settles against the railing to watch, because it's not every day you get to see that.

The ripples get closer, the shadows in the water more defined, the water choppier, and suddenly the orca and its unfortunate prey are zooming directly towards the boat and he's waiting, breath held, for them to duck right underneath--

When the water breaks, the ocean sprays, and he's suddenly smacked fully in the face by a very wet, very confused, and very pretty merman, throwing them both down onto the deck while the boat rocks as a confused and now quite hungry orca dives beneath it.

The merman, it turns out, thought that the boat was an ice float and didn't realise his mistake until it was too late. But he's very thankful for the impromptu rescue, and wow don't you have nice arms, and holy shit you've got legs, can I touch them? Is that weird? Can I touch them anyway? And your hair--

So of course they get to talking because they're both utterly fascinated with the other, and soon the sun has set and the samples are long-since ready and the moonlight is making the ocean look black and they part with the knowledge that they'll never meet again, and a kiss, and a lingering look over the shoulder for all the things that can't be...

And the researcher gets back to land, moors his boat, readies his samples. He packs up his things, shoves them into his bags, and prepares to go home. He steps onto the jetty boards and thinks of the merman and the solid wood beneath his feet seems to sway for more than one reason.

There's a splash. He turns, pulled as if by the tide, and there's a ripple in the water. A face. A pair of eyes made black by the moonlight.

And this is how the researcher acquires a merman boyfriend who helps him find samples and the merman acquires a human boyfriend who rescues him from whales.

Yandere Fairytale Series:

Rapunzel

Part 1 Part 2

Yandere Witch x Rapunzel Reader x Yandere Prince

For many, long years you had resided in an isolated tower deep in the forest with an elderly woman named Agnes and her daughter Hilda. The three of you had lived here together and created a nice home for yourselves in a place no man could ever harm you… or at least that’s what Agnes instilled in you and Hilda since you were children. Men were evil and couldn’t be trusted. They would lure you in with sweet words and promises, but then they’d swallow you whole like a beast.

Since you were ten, Hilda and Agnes never let you lift a finger nor did they let you outside. “It’s dangerous for you. You’re far too delicate for the forest. Leave it to us, (your name).” Agnes would always tell you before she took Hilda with her to forage and hunt.

Despite your years with the two of them, Agnes told you that you were not biologically her child. “Hilda and I found you in the forest one day. You were just a baby and we couldn’t leave you… so you can stay here with us, forever. You’re ours, my dear.”

They’d brush your hair as it slowly began to grow longer than the length of the tower. Your long hair was used to come and go after Agnes and Hilda sealed off the door to ‘keep you safe.’

Every time you’d ask to go out or inquire about what they’d see, Agnes would shut you down. “Curiosity killed the cat, dear. You just wait here, we will be back.”

The mother and daughter often took trips for supplies. Whether it was berries or necessities, their trips only took a few hours… sometimes they took a few days. It just depended on what they needed. The pair never let the supplies dwindle much. Agnes hated being irresponsible when it came to stock.

It was when you were over the age of twenty that Agnes’s health took a turn. Hilda would often weep with you as she held you close. You and Hilda had grown so close… Hilda swore she wouldn’t let her mother down. That’d she’d carry on her will. (A will you didn’t have a clue about)

When Agnes passed away, Hilda immediately took charge over the chores around the tower. The beautiful young woman often fretted over you as she made sure the two of you were cared for. She took over brushing your long locks and gathering supplies.

Sometimes Hilda would braid her long black hair with hers. So ‘the two of you were connected.’ It was always fun whenever Hilda would let you play with her hair.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be back! I can bring you back your favorite berries.” Hilda would gave you a reassuring smile before she headed out into the forest. You watched her form until she disappeared into the trees.

So you’d get back to painting the walls with a hum. Your hair draped behind you like a waterfall as you sat on your homemade swing.

You nearly jumped out of your skin when you heard a loud clank on the side of your tower. What on earth was that?!

You jumped off your swing and ran to look at the balcony. A grappling hook was slung around the metal frame as a hooded figure began to scale the tower. Who we that?!

You went to shut the balcony door but ended up slipping on your own hair. Your back hit the floor as you whined in pain. Your eyes wide in terror at the knight that now stood in front of you as he quickly winded up the rope. The knight mumbled some curses before he shoved the grappling hook in his bag.

“W-who are-“ the knight pushed you further into the tower as he put a gloved hand over your mouth. Your body trembled when you looked into their lilac eyes. You’d never seen such pretty eyes before…

There was shouting below and the sound of hooves. Was this knight being pursued? You couldn’t tell since the knight held you firmly in their arms until the voices disappeared into the distance.

The knight breathed a sigh of relief before they released her. You quickly shoved the knight away from you as you scooted your body as far away from them as you could. You swore your heart was about to leap from your chest.

“Who are you?” You shakily asked but the knight gave you a small bow. Their hands slipped off the silver helmet on their head to reveal a rather striking individual with sharp features and long, lavender hair.

“I apologize for my intrusion. I’m Prince Vinicio of the Corcoran kingdom.” The knight’s voice was a lot deeper than she expected. How could a woman have such a deep voice?

“Prince? Don’t you mean princess?” You softly asked which made the knight erupt into laughter.

“No. Despite my rather feminine appearance, I’m male.”Vinicio smiled warmly at you. “I just noticed how long your hair is. Have you been growing it out for a long time-“

You jumped when he reached a hand out to you which made him frown. Vinicio’s mind began to wander as he glanced around your home. Did you live here all alone? This wilderness was not becoming of a lady, especially not one as stunning as you. “I apologize, I didn’t mean to frighten you.”

“P-please leave. I’m not supposed to talk to men.”

Vinicio frowned but gave you a small bow out of respect. You must be being held against your will in this lonely tower… he’d have to gain your trust to save you.

“I apologize, I’ll take my leave.” Vinicio put his helmet back on but turned to give you one last look. “But can I meet you again tomorrow? I can talk to you from below the tower. I won’t climb up here again.”

You bit your lip. Agnes had always warned you and Hilda about men but Vinicio didn’t seem dangerous… “Okay. But only if you promise to not climb.”

Vinicio smiled warmly at you. “I promise.”

how about that uhhhhh Fantasy Julie. she gets her sword <3 no one can take it from her <3

rambles:

SIKE you get an extra, lower quality doodle

SIKE AGAIN here's the rambles

yeah... i caved and gave her a tail... I'm Not Sorry! it's cute! i wanted to stick with her sorta flower motif - it's stronger in her princess look, since I imagine that when she was part of the royals she was very blatantly flower power based. it was her Thing!

but a Julie free of her noble shackles... she deserves her big sword. like yeah, she has flower magic, but who needs it when she has a Giant Blade??? on the royalty vein, and if we're classifying "rainbow monster" as a species, i feel like horn size/curve would be a status symbol of some kind. maybe Julie would have kept her horns filed short. but if she ran away from that life... longer horns! i like to imagine that they'll keep growing until she has a pair of Extra Weapons attached to her head! curved forward like mammoth tusks maybe!

i imagine that like Frank, she goes with minimal armor - range of movement over protection, yk? some scale mail over her front, a thick leather flower over her chest w/ scalloped leather pauldrons, wrist armor and metal knuckles! i'd think that the faux-suspenders include a back sheath for her sword... i wish i'd thought of that Before i finished the little ref! i don't feel like going back and editing!

i imagine that she was forced to cut her hair when it got caught in something (a gelatinous cube, mayhaps). it didn't look good! don't let anime and Mulan fool you! cutting your own hair with a blade will not look nice! but someone - Eddie, probably, he's good with scissors i'd assume - cleaned it up for her. and hey, it didn't look bad! plus, Julie probably liked being able to just tuck up her long strands into her hat when she's feeling a bit more like a Julius than a Julie!

it's been a fun challenge transforming their canon outfits into a similar variation with fantasy flavoring and twists! i want them to suit the setting but still maintain Themselves! Julie's was tough i gotta admit. i was messing around with the princess look and the fighter look side-by-side. it worked better when i sat back and thought "fighter Julie is Julie unrestrained. that version would be more aligned with her canon look"

i wanted her princess form to look Restrained! she has to be a ~delicate flower~, a noble woman, pristine and poised and very much a princess. soft colors, poofy clothing, bright white gloves that are not to be sullied. carefully bundled up hair! jewelry! that dress must be Heavy and hard to move in! her tail must be so cramped under there!

but Julie Unleashed? violent pinks! rose gold accents! short skirt so that she can sprint and Kick! fun boots that she can be active in and delight in watching them get dirty! her hair is free to whip in the wind and get caught in things! fun straps and Deadly Accessories! a sword that she stole from the royal armory on her way out the window! she has forearm wraps both to match Frank and to support her wrists!

✨ Inspiration Saturday ✨

So instead of working on the WIPs I already have, my brain decided to think up a new one 😅

Current working title is LA Lonely and here is a mood board and a rough little summary:

Buck meets Eddie and they hook up. Buck feels an instant connection but doesn’t pursue it because he’s only good for one night, no one wants him for keeps. Cue him running into Eddie almost everywhere he goes, like the universe keeps putting Eddie in his path. And Eddie is kind and never makes their interactions feel awkward and the way he smiles at Buck has something warm fluttering to life inside him. Eddie eventually asks him out on a proper date and Buck is so confused because no one wants him for more than a fun time. They don’t want to keep him.

(snippet under the cut)

“Buck!”

Buck turns towards the voice calling his name to find none other than Christopher from the class field trip at the station last week walking towards him, red crutches click clacking against the floor.

“Hey Chris! What brings you here? Another school field trip?”

Chris scrunches his face up, looking at Buck like he’s grown a second head.

“It’s Saturday.”

“Right. I knew that, I was just checking to see if you did.” Buck says as he points his finger at Chris causing the boy to giggle.

Buck scoots over on the bench making room for Chris to sit down beside him.

“Are your mum or dad with you?” Buck asks as he scans the room behind them for a frantic parent.

“My mum’s dead.”

Oh. Well. Buck has no idea what to do with that.

“Uh, I’m sorry buddy, that’s uh- that’s rough.” He looks around the room again. “What about your Da-“

“Christopher!”

Buck’s head whips around to find a man striding towards them. As he draws closer, Buck's eyes widen in recognition and disbelief because shit, Buck knows him - has seen him naked, felt his body pressed against his own as the guy shoved his cock so deep inside Buck he swore he could feel it in his throat. The memory of their encounter is still fresh in Buck’s mind a week later because it was that good.

“Dad!” Chris says happily, smiling bright and big and holy fuck his hot hookup who gave him one of the best orgasms of his fucking life has a kid.

And is standing right in from on him.

Buck scrambles to his feet, his hand coming up to rub at the back of his neck as he smiles nervously at Eddie. “Uh hi.”

Eddie looks shocked to see him but it quickly melts away, his eyes softening. “Buck, hey.” His mouth quirks up in a small smile and Buck remembers exactly why he brought Eddie home last weekend. He’s so fucking pretty

@limnsaber tagged me in this and.... you know i had to do it to 'em

when his idea of a romantic weekend getaway is being chased by a swarm of evil supernatural bugs (din is hoping for a real vacation soon)

[heartofjasmina]

(back again with another request not even two days after the first XD) (don't judge me I'm a whore for this man and you're one of the few Shinsou writers who doesn't write only female reader)

I see your incubus Shinsou and I raise you:

Dragon Shinsou.

Specifically, Dragon Shinsou in the middle of mating season, desperate to knot and breed, but still being so so so gentle because his mate is a fragile human and he might hurt them.

Do with that what you will.

-⚡

Gender neutral reader is so important!! for so many reasons, glad I can help!

::

Shinsou had many glittering jewels, gold, silver, all the treasures he could ask for. But a mate? That could only be you.

Soft, he loved soft things as much as he loves sparkle, and beautiful as the jewels in his horde. You had stumbled into his cave from the forest and within a month you had him so wrapped around your finger he couldn't imagine life without you.

But mating a dragon with a human's body was difficult, and he rumbled at your throat to help you relax to let more of his shaft inside you. Or maybe he was rumbling because of how much his skull was pounding with the need to

knot

knot

breed

BREED.

It was a struggle he was going to win every time though, because he feels your tiny soft hand on his horns as you tell him, "It's alright, I can take it. Love you, Shin.."

"Human, mine, mate." He growled pupils blown wide with need and love and desire.

"Mate." You nodded and kisssed him, over and over until he remembered you. His fragile little human in need of protecting and loving.

“Are you ok?”

..

..

Alicent, a mermaid of the northern sea, has been keeping an eye on the fisher for sometime now. She had almost tipped the fishers boat over at first. But, when she carefully lifted her head from the water and gazed upon the land-woman, she couldn’t seem to look away. She should have known better, should have known not to get so close to the net. But all she wanted was to get a closer look at the woman with silver hair. Before she could even begin to swim away, she was being rounded up in a fish net and being brought on board to the ship.

.

Rhaenyra hadn’t seen the siren until it was to late. Her net, unfortunately, had caught around the green and silver tail. She had known that sirens were in the waters, everyone in their little town by the water knew about the sirens. And fishers had been raised with the knowledge of avoiding those sirens since they were little. It was in their blood. And yet, she had caught a siren in her net. Rhaenyra had sputtered at the way the beautiful siren had tried to untangle herself from the net. But before the siren could struggle any longer, Rhaenyra grabbed hold of her knife and made her way to the siren with haste.

.

“Hey, hey! It’s ok! Hold on let me cut the net!” Rhaenyra called out. She had been trying to cut the net, but the siren had not stopped her thrashing.

When the siren didn’t look like she was going to stop, Rhaenyra dropped her knife and held up her hands, “Hey, listen-listen, I’m not going to hurt you. I just need to get this net off of you, so that I can get you back in the water. Ok?”

The siren, with her beautiful dark red hair began to calm her movements. Her eyes, which were large and brown, looked upon Rhaenyra with distrust. “Is that ok?” Rhaenyra asked. The siren took a moment, but soon nodded her head.

Rhaenyra made work of carefully cutting the that had been tangled around the siren. She couldn’t help the jolt that went through her when her fingers accidentally grazed along the sirens silky tail. No wonder they could move so fast in the water.

When the net was completely off of the siren, Rhaenyra dropped her knife once more and held her hands out tentatively. The siren had backed herself into a corner of the ship deck. “Are you ok?” Rhaenyra asked.

It had taken so long for the siren to respond that Rhaenyra had begun to wonder if sirens could speak at all. “I’m fine… thank you, for untangling me.”

“It was no trouble of mine. While I don’t mean to question you, do you know how you got tangled in the net? Most sirens take their time letting the fish out then they do getting in there with them.”

The siren looked around the ship before landing her rich brown eyes on Rhaenyra, “I was looking at the ship, and I got to close to it. I didn’t see it.”

Rhaenyra gave a small chuckle and waved around her hands, “Well, here it is. Smaller than my usual ships since I’m out here by myself today. So, what do you think… I’m sorry, I’m afraid I don’t know your name.”

The siren, with her long hair that tangled around her shoulders, lifted her eyes and looked, for what it seemed like, right into Rhaenyra’s soul. “It’s Alicent. My name is Alicent.”

[ooeygooeyghoul]

I think Shiun had a bit of a Moment™ in Endwalker after finding out about his creation and purpose where he chopped off his hair and horns. And maybe he almost went a bit too far with removing those edges.

bunch of Phantasy AU doodles n wip from earlier this year

Basically I just found out this year that ball-jointed dolls actually have strings in them and not just... magically attached by the ball joints themselves? And 31 in this AU is a ball jointed doll that were made out of Danny's energy so here we are :3c

I've been watching a lot of doll customization since earlier this year and found out from dollightful's video that no they are all connected by elastic strings inside so that's where the idea came from

...i was looking on google to find a good example to put here and clearly I'm not exactly paying attention to how the main body strings are actually.. pinned to?

the video I've been watching the most is dollightful n moonlight jewel and they have their bjd usually only to the bottom of the doll head instead of all the way to the top on the skull pin like the diagram above

Which is why 31 has his strings all connected to the 'heart' in the middle instead of the head kasjdnkasjnd

But yeah uhhh specifics aside...

----

Those ball jointed dolls made me think of 31, and then thinking about the clones in Phantasy AU and like.. the logistic of it

for 31, the idea is that during the circus gothica arc for this AU, Danny actually got kidnapped all the whole way into another universe/plane in which he met Valeska (Enn's oc) who unalive what his face the circus leader n break Danny's hypnosis

and now that Danny is essentially stuck in a whole other plane/realm/or sth he just following Valeska hoping she'll help him find his way back.

In one such trip, Danny got kidnapped (again) by another group/cult who wanted to use his power/energy as a gate keeper to the ghost zone to make their own gate keeper so they can open portals to ghost zones and maybe other realms too

31 is part of the experiments. He's a doll made with part of Danny's energy as his core.

And then it's.. uhh.. sth sth Valeska finally found out where they kept Danny and devour everyone there safe from Danny n 31 who helped him escape so now the three of them travel together~

The last pict is me thinking about clones and kingdom hearts :tm: so dramatic about Danny being the soul separated from the main body and 31 a clone made from part of the soul too and all that Not sure where I'm going with that but it do sound cool

And there's also Danielle but I'm not exactly sure.. how she would fit in? but it would be interesting if she was made from Danny's body somehow

so 31 made from part of teh soul and Dani from part of the body sounds poetic somehow

[thepenultimateword]

I love your prompt lists! Any thoughts on Arranged Marriage prompts involving Villains?

Disclaimer: Though the request was arranged marriages, this is actually a mix of arranged and forced marriages. An arranged marriage is one that both parties agree to, and a forced marriage is, as it sounds, a party being forced against their will into a relationship by the other party or by someone else.

1. Villain is arranged in marriage to Superhero after Supervillain makes a deal to benefit their own organization. Villain would decline, but they don’t have much power to resist at the moment.

2. Supervillain is arranged in marriage to Other Supervillain to grow and support both their territories and power.

3. Supervillain is in search of a spouse worthy to rule alongside them and advertises applications. Villain is unaware until the day they are chosen that their henchmen filled out an application for them.

4. Hero and Villain were arranged in marriage as civilians, it wasn’t difficult to discover each other’s alter egos, but it makes their home life very awkward.

5. Villain was once a powerful dark sorcerer, but when they tried to overthrow the kingdom, they were defeated and stripped of their power. They assumed they'd be executed, at the very least imprisoned for life, instead, the kingdom's ruler comes to them with a proposition.

6. Villain is the usurper and ruler of a powerful kingdom. Despite their ambiguous morals, they are fair and good to their people. However, when a drought strikes their lands, and they reach out for help, no other kingdom trusts them enough to make an alliance. That is, except for one kingdom, which has a particular type of alliance in mind.

7. Villain lives in a world of soulmates, but they never expected their soulmate to be Hero. Arranged by fate itself, the pressure is on to make it official. Though both are struggling with the revelation and what it means for them.

8. Villain and Hero are arranged in marriage in order to bring peace to the warring sides and to the city. But what happens when Henchman interrupts?

9. Hero was supposed to marry Villain. But now Hero is dead. Apparently, Sidekick is next best, so they've been put in their ex-colleague's place.

10. Villain is the youngest heir to a royal family with ambitious plans to become crown prince/princess. Their oldest sibling is meant to be making a marriage alliance with another kingdom but ends up eloping with someone else instead. Now Villain is the only unwed sibling left and is thrown into their sibling's place to avoid offending the other kingdom. Villain is glad they get the chance to rule, but this wasn't how it was supposed to happen.

11. Villain is an almighty immortal, but despite being surrounded by doting people, they hunger for companionship. Someone they can think of as an equal. They arrange to meet some candidates to be their bride/groom.

12. Villain is a pirate king, but when he frees a siren from his nets, he finds himself trapped in her customs of marriage.

13. Henchman happens to be Superhero’s child, and they arrange them in marriage to Hero, hoping to cure their so called “rebellious-streak”. Needless to say, Villain is not happy, and not just because they have feeling for Henchman.

14. It’s a classic fairytale story, Villain is the cursed heir to the throne who has been promised in marriage by their parents to whoever can find their cure.

(So many options for this one, do they set aside their dark nature as they’re desperate for a cure? Do they even want a cure? Did they curse themself? Is the curse a result of something they did? Did an enemy curse them? Are they against their parent’s deal? For it? Is it a scheme? A twist of fate?)

15. ^ but in reverse. Villain is going to Iift the curse on that heir and get that spot on the throne, and they’re not going to do it the goody goody way.

Do you guys know what Germania’s human name is - or at least what do you personally call him?

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

Would The Horrors (TM) also exist in the fantasy au? Even if only as a “wouldn’t it be cool” scenario? How so?

i'll have to get back to you on that! i'm currently like. Overhauling it to better fit the update
