#Magic of the Deep AU

[spacejamdvdadinfinitum]

Wait speaking of direct to VHS/DVD: What if Ursula's sister in TWST is just an off brand Azul who tries to take his style and JUST WANTS TO BE AS SUCCESSFUL AS AZUL. HAS NO CLUE ABOUT THE INSECURITIES.

OHHHHH anon this brings up something I super duper wanna talk about.

Deep Ocean Magic.

I wanna see this lil freshman trying to gun for Azul's spot as housewarden by harnessing a very much frowned upon if not forbidden magic from the abyssal trenches of the ocean.

Adorable lil rat bastard starts trying to pull scams. Trying to manipulate and subjugate his fellow freshmen. Get them to rally to his side, so that he can get a platform to challenge Azul with.

God fucking damnit I misread sith Obi-wan as siren Obi-wan ONCE and now I have THOUGHTS about small town siren Obi-wan disguising himself as an eccentric music tutor/boardwalk busker to explore the ~human world~

I've been wondering about something about Wally's "Warlock staff"....

What the heck is that? A crystal of some kind?? (I've been wondering for so long with the project I'm working on)

that would be a crystal - and a conduit for Home's power! Wally uses it to channel and utilize the magic Home gives him. technically he can cast without it, but casting without a "lightning rod" makes the magic undiluted when used - which is rarely a good thing when your power comes from a demon!

im curious, how did perkeo become immortal? you say theyre the dont age dont die type but theyve still aged to the point of an average adult. so was there a point where they became immortal? were they born immortal but still aged to the point where they seemed like the average human then stopped?

this is a bit more morbid but im curious about this too

how severe can injuries get if they cant die? how does their body handle situations where the average person would bleed out? would they heal faster? would they just have infinite blood? what if they got into a coma? would they ever wake up? or is it just not possible? how would they heal from injuries that would make it impossible for the average person to come back?

if youre not willing to answer the second stuff thats fine, im just really curious

They do not remember

The earliest memory they have is on the kingdom, and they were already a grown person by then

They remember kneeling, the agreement made with the king

They remember tests, and them stopping with lack of results

They remember doing their job afterwards, and the years that went on as they remained the same

They remember making people smile and laugh and how they cherished that feeling more than anything

That does not mean they never had a family, though

Morbid details under cut

Very. They had to crawl their way out of things no human could even dream of surviving, things no one should have survived — or even lived enough through it as it happened

They can still get dizzy, they can still faint, things can go to black, but eventually their brain will pull them back awake again. Die, but come back

The wound would close, but they can bleed out. They can feel the dizziness, the cold, the pain. If severe enough, they could pass out — either until the wound closes or until their brain decides it gotta keep fighting still. That said, they very likely could deal with a stab wound without passing out if outside factors are not included (if anything, they would just be annoyed)

Sewing a wound would likely make it close faster than leaving it alone

Their heart would always start beating again even after stopping, so I guess you could say they have infinite blood?

They would wake up from a coma I'm pretty sure (how long it would take would depend on the cause), unless it was like, medically induced (which would mean constant upkeep to keep em like that) because yk. Strong drugs

They do heal from injuries that would be impossible for a normal person to survive. Their body puts itself back together – and when it can't, it just makes a new part to compensate

So, for example: let's say they get decapitated. They could put the head back on the neck, and the body would work to glue the two together again

Now, let's say they lost a leg and for some reason could not try to put the leg back in place: then the body would make a new leg. It would take a lot longer, and be infinitely more painful, but it would be back in place one way or another

(Now for what happens to the lost limb — idk it probably rots as the body regens. They are already immortal, might as well throw some nonsense in the mix)

How can they grab their own head and put it back? Idk that's too much to keep track of. Maybe magic who knows

Also! Burned skin will heal and fade, take that was you will

Essentially I would say it's just kind of nightmarish but they do heal pretty fast (how fast? Idk, but pretty fast), and that they would also be pretty used to some level of pain rn

i'm plagued by like a terrible crystal clear idea for an AU that I'll never write and would need way more context to be Anything but is still evocative enough to make me go oughhhhh I Want it.

Bram is a literal undead king. He'd be some deep ocean strong a big creature for sure something that looks that will eat you in minutes but it's actually kind of chill having no desire to hunt humans

I PROPOSE: THE BLOODBELLY COMB JELLYFISH

They're pretty small (16cm length and 10 width is big for them) but live very deep in the ocean, and eat little bioluminescent fish! They're red to mask the fish's bioluminescence so other prey can't spot them. The one in the pic is red but they can also be purple or black! They live in the Pacific at depths of 250-1500m. That's just based on aesthetics though! I also propose:

THE FRILLED SHARK

They might look scary, but these guys eat small fish and cephalopods, not humans! They're around 1.5m (5'2 ft) long and live between 50-200m though they have been observed at depths of more than 1000m. They're considered living fossils because like lots of other freaky sea creatures (hi horseshoe crabs I love you) they haven't evolved for millions of years. Those scary things in their mouth are the teeth, which help keep prey down. They're also called lizard sharks!

its really fun to see "multiverse" stuff become so mainstream and get explored so frequently but i cant lie. undertale did it first for me and sans will always be the blueprint in my mind

[chloecherrysip]

breaking news: local woman goes to the movie theater and somehow DOESN'T see the mario movie again for the millionth time? who IS she??????

This is part of an AU that is quickly sprawling far in my notes, technically sorta inspired by @artistwholikescookies role reversal AU from a few years ago, in that the Nektons are cryptids and aren't connected to the WOA at all. They still use a sub even though they're mer-shifters because the sub makes keeping the artefacts they find a lot easier.

I'm also writing a fic to go with this piece, which shows Kaiko and Will's wedding, specifically the ritual spell that gave Kaiko a scale-cloak of her own to transform into a mermaid (note the scales on Will's robe and the lack of them on Kaiko's, hers is still just fabric). Will, canonically an ex-olympic swimmer, is built for speed in his mer-form. Kaiko is spiky and venomous because I like her comic characterisation best and comic Kaiko, who charges boats at docks and pushes people overboard, would totally be something built to fight as a mermaid. Fontaine, who I already have a sketch of that I'll work on tomorrow, takes after her father in that she's also fairly streamlined as a mer. Ant looks kinda like Jeffrey but with a pair of tentacles for extra shenaniganising and to hold things while he's inventing.

With Violet Light

Snippet #1

She came to him again, as she always has. Forever a child, even when Merlin himself had grown older and older, until he himself had outgrown her.

She stared at him, unfathomable sincerity in her gleaming silver eyes. A sad smile still adorns her lips, a hand outstretched towards him.

In his dreams, Merlin is eight years old still.

Her question comes, the barest whisper of wind on his skin, “Will you bleed for him?”

Bonus

He didn't die, but he did take his first life.

It was less horrifying than he thought it would be, because Destiny might be a noose, but Merlin would readily choke himself on it if it meant being here, in Camelot, with Arthur smiling bright as a dream.

Merlin wasn’t the only sorcerer to ever love the Once and Future King.

More doodles of Raw and his parasite, normally he just wears that blackish purple body piece with long gloves and thigh highs if he's not out at an event. Also he has a little tail <3
