#but mermaid gang would be really cool lmao

[oceanwithouthermoon]

hi i NEED to know more abt your mermaid au (if you dont mind u.u)

HIIIII THANK U FOR ASKINGGHGG

so basically in this au, everything is prettyyy much the same except that aren is a merman..

after his meeting with kusuo, it becomes painfully obvious that kusuo doesnt belong there but aren still thinks hes just a cool foreign mermaid.. but he keeps asking so many questions about where hes from and kusuo is already in so much shock he cant keep up the act anymore and tells him hes from the land.. (he probably couldve just told him to leave him alone, but truth be told he had a hot merman right in front of him and he literally just found out mermaids exist ??? so why would he do that)

so after learning kusuos secret (which wasnt explained in full, he really just said he has powers and aren thinks its some sort of secret human magic) he begs him to give him human legs, and kusuo has to explain that he cant use his shapeshifting ability on other people, and the only similar thing is hypnosis, which wouldnt work.. SO kuboyasu introduces him to mermaid magic !! which isnt all that powerful at all.. they just have certain minor spells, charms, and incantations that can have small effects.. so they work together and find a way to make his shapeshifting ability work on kuboyasu!! maybe its a thing similar to saikis limiters, but its like a pendant or a pair of earrings infused with a combination of magic+kusuos powers+technology

and soooooo he transfers to PK!! (with kusuos genius+mind control, its easy to cook up a fake ID+birth certificate and all) and everything else is pretty much the same, including even how kusuo attempts to ignore him at school at first+then spies on him without his knowledge.. but theyre also secretly romancing each other outside of school hours in the literal ocean..

it definitely took a while for kusuo to trust him enough to take him on land btw so they also spent a lot of time in arens home but i havent put much thought into what/where exactly that is or about his family and mermaid friends and such..

either way, even when he trusts him, aren still messes up and almost spills various secrets a lot lmao.. it shouldn't be that hard because hes been told his whole life that humans were dangerous because they couldnt handle things they didnt understand (like.. magic) but somehow he still manages to slip up many times on BOTH of their secrets (good thing their friends are DUMB)

"so aren, where do you live??" "in the sea-" gets elbowed by kusuo "sea.. outh.. district??" "huh??"

[turtle-go-brrrr]

The gang plays Animal Crossing: NH

I haven’t played since Christmas because my joycons had ~ issues ~ but now I’ll be able to return to it pretty soon so here ya go ^^ (also took a while to make this as I dont know the English names of the villagers so I had to look it up lol)

so I heard there’s an oc promothon shindig going down over at @charlesoberonn and honestly you all know I will throw myself headfirst into anything of the sort soooo yep 

Anyway some of you know this merry band of losers already, Penwright, Horrie and Grace, a ragtag gang of enby kids who are so bad with directions they accidentally catch a bus into another dimension instead of their local shopping mall. They wind up in a bizarre sci-fi otherworld where people’s wandering thoughts and daydreams directly alter reality - an ever-shifting mess of a universe where nothing makes sense, nothing is consistent, and stratocumulus clouds are particularly skilled at origami. Shenanigans ensue.

I’m gonna ramble about the characters more under the cut ‘cause I don’t want to get too long on your dashboards lmao

From left to right:

Penwright Fitzpatrick, or Fitzwilliam, or Fitzgerald (it fluctuates - xe’s often affectionately referred to as just “Fitz”). Budding explorer, teller of bad jokes and dabbler-in of necromancy, Penwright is famous for xir uncanny ability to remain cool, calm and collected under pressure. This is less because xe’s a badass as most believe, and more because xe straight-up never has any idea what’s going on and usually doesn’t realise xe was even under pressure at all till a week later. Xe spends their days mapping unexplored lands and documenting wildlife, and would rather hang out with xir BFF Lancelot the bearded dragon than you. Nonetheless, an incredibly loyal and compassionate friend if you can peel back the layers of awkwardess.

Horatio “Horrie” Odell, avid sailor and haver of all manner of vague and unspecific sci-fi gadgets, named after a guy I know on facebook who owns a cool sword. Loud, boisterous and an inventor at heart, Horrie is driven by a desire to understand as much of the world as possible and is perhaps physically incapable of half-assing anything. They’re constantly jumping from project to project, from shenanigan to wilder shenanigan, searching for new ways to create and push reality to its limits. They’re unpredictable at times, but they’ve got a big heart and lots of love to give, and also a multi-functional robot arm, and a mermaid girlfriend.

And then Grace/Grayson LaTrobe, professional pain in the ass to draw, because I don’t actually… really know what he looks like? He doesn’t really look like anything? He sometimes doesn’t even exist, his mind wanders and he just forgets to. He’s a bit like that. Anyway. Sci-fi movie enthusiast, owner of too many wristbands, definitely an aesthetic blogger. Grace is curious and thoughtful and shy, easily stressed out but still determined to do his best with his lot in life. He spends a lot of time poking around various wildernesses, befriending other people’s forgotten creations and becoming one with the universe, and such. He’s entirely nonverbal and doesn’t like to be out and about without his face covered somehow, usually with a literal space helmet because it looks cool. Grayson has also been more or less adopted by a secret legion of tiny frog assassins. He is not sure how or why.

anyway those are my ridiculous children I love them thank you for listening
