How would everyone feel if I stuck both Simon and Ryland into a different cosmic horror universe? A universe I have loved for years, that has amazing art that is free for anyone to consume? Where Simon still went through some of the cosmic horrors and lost his arm, but you don't know what did it, even if you have an inkling? How would everyone feel about that?
I have posted the first chapter :D

I think a lot of you aren't going to like hearing this but if you're treating Simons prosthetic arm in Bloodymary AUs like a fix-all then I do believe you're ableist, even if its unintentional. I'm not even an amputee but the fact that I've seen SEVERAL drawings of him with it in bed and in situations where it'd be uncomfortable as fuck tells me a lot of you guys apparently know nothing about how uncomfortable prosthetics are.
I find this happens with disabled characters a lot, where people give them a "fix all" so that way they don't have to draw the character being disabled, and I especially notice this with amputee characters. Either that, or you guys just give Simon his arm back. Even in an AU, it's an important part of his story and character. A lot of you need to stop acting like a prosthetic is a magic fix and a perfect "new arm" just because you don't want to deal with navigating how that'd impact a characters life.
Bloodymary editors!! If you want clips of Mark saying "Grace" (in varying levels of panic) check out the Resident Evil Requiem videos

Saw someone mention a bloody Mary au where Adrian finds Simon before Grace & Rocky return, and frankly I need to take a crack at writing it. Because simon being the one who needs the translator to talk to them, and he ends up learning Eridian super fast. Hes a silly little engineer and Adrian thinks about their mate every time they looks at him.
This would also be perfect for a physically stable and healthy Simon and Grace on the edge of death from malnutrition. Rocky panicking as soon as he in radio distance like "Hey guys, picked up a random alien human and he needs food I need us to synthe–"
"Yeah we have it already,"
"What?"
"Adrian found a human 2 years ago. We have everything,"
"What????"

Oopppp here I go popping off about another Arthur Merlin scene that came up on my TikTok.
"I always thought you were the bravest man I ever met. I guess I was wrong"
Hey what an insane thing to say after you just got done belittling Merlin for getting you ready for battle and him telling you he's not coming. This is the shit I'm talking about when I say I have such a problem with Arthur. Because like wtf dude. You can clearly see that Merlin is scared and your only way of dealing with that is to guilt-trip the man????? What????
It just shows how Arthur has such a hard time looking outside of himself, even at the END of the fucking series. It's always 'what is this person going to do for me' not 'this person is clearly having a hard time, and we should discuss that so that I can make sure this person is ok'
Like at this moment Merlin is exactly what Arthur thinks he is, a powerless servant, and we as the audience know he's going on his own mission to help aid Arthur but Arthur doesn't, he just knows that this man that's been by his side for legit everything is finally drawing the line at what was the most terrifying fight they ever had waged. And instead of being understanding to that plight he calls Merlin a coward?????
Now I do think it comes from a place of projection. That Arthur is truly scared at that moment and is looking at this man saying, in everything but words, he is scared too but instead of facing that fear he's running from it like Arthur would like to. So Arthur lashes out in an almost 'I wish I could run too' kind of way but since I can't, I'm going to be mad that you can.
But well, that's how children handle emotions. Again this scene should have shown how much Arthur had grown into the well-meaning King of the people, but instead we get a scene where we are shown just how little Arthur had changed over the years.
Yes Arthur wants Merlin there and that's completely normal, fine with me even, but he should also be relieved that the servant that is always throwing himself into situations that would get him killed is finally choosing to sit back and let others handle it (Even if we as an audience know that he's not) like he is always asking him to do!
And we take that response and compare it to Gwaine's response when Merlin is legit cowering in the woods, terrified and screaming his name and completely powerless as a man tried to kill him with an axe, and we see Gwaine helping Merlin, not saying a word about his asking for someone else to handle the problem for him and just doing it. And yes that was a little more of a life and death situation but even afterwards when there was space to pick at him, he just asks if Merlin was ok and follows that up with a "No need to thank me Merlin. It was the least I could do" You all have to see that difference.
And these scenes happen pretty much back to back. Like it's the next time we see Merlin. So I have to believe the writers put them there so we could compare the two and see how a 'friendship' is supposed to react to something like that. (More points to my Gwaine and Arthur are foils of each other, but that's for another day)
I'm not saying that if Arthur wasn't in Gwaine's position, he wouldn't have saved Merlin, but you can't tell me he wouldn't have called Merlin an absolute coward for needing to be saved. And there lies the problem with Arthur for me. He is still Merlin's bully at the tail end of the series, he is still actively making every situation worse for Merlin with his words, and the writers let him get away with it and call it a quirk of their relationship. Meanwhile, Gwaine is there to help and aid Merlin and gets put on the back burner because of it.
Ooooo ok how about a fic where Merlin keeps breaking stuff or setting the sheets on fire or creating a storm every time he cums ‘cause his magic just can’t be contained with how insanely good Gwaine is at sex, so he puts his mind to figuring out how to hold back any spell work just so he doesn’t accidentally expose himself and much more importantly so that he doesn’t hurt Gwaine. And then he does!
Great, right?
Cue Gwaine freaking out over the fact that Merlin’s magic did absolutely nothing the last time they had sex like it had every time before, leading him to start pulling out wilder and wilder techniques to make sure he’s pleasing Merlin as much as he deserved to be pleased (a truly infinite amount really).
Only, Merlin is frustratingly stubborn about keeping his magic locked up. So now Gwaine is stressing over the fact that he wants Merlin to enjoy himself, and Merlin is panicking over the fact that Gwaine is so terribly talented in the bedroom that he just might explode with untapped magic usage.
It comes to a head (ba dum tis) at some point after a particularly intense bout of mindblowing orgasms leads Merlin to literally blow the roof off but not before both of them discover quite a few new things about themselves!
gwaine’s devotion to merlin is not loud. there’s no grand declaration that you are my other half.
gwaine chooses merlin.
not once. not in a moment of dramatic revelation. but over and over and over again.
he chooses him in the easy moments, when merlin is just some scrawny servant with a sharp tongue and nothing to offer but a drink and a laugh. he chooses him in the harder moments too—when merlin is caught in things he doesn’t explain, when he disappears and reappears with that same evasive look, when there’s clearly something wrong and no one else bothers to ask. gwaine notices. gwaine always notices.
and more importantly, he doesn’t press.
that’s the thing about gwaine: his loyalty is never conditional on understanding. he doesn’t need the full story to stand beside someone. merlin is strange, secretive, occasionally infuriating—and gwaine shrugs like that’s just part of the package. like of course you’re odd. i like you anyway.
there’s a kind of reverence in that.
because what is devotion, really, if not the act of saying i don’t need you to make sense to me to matter?
gwaine trusts merlin in a way that feels almost reckless. he’ll back his play in a tavern brawl, in a dungeon, on a battlefield. no questions, no hesitation. if merlin says “come with me,” gwaine’s already halfway there. not because he’s foolish, but because somewhere along the line he decided merlin was worth the risk.
and gwaine is not a man who gives that lightly.
he knows better than to hand his loyalty over without a fight. but with merlin, it’s almost effortless. like he took one look at him and thought, oh. there you are.
and maybe that’s the most devastating part of it.
because merlin—who is carrying the weight of magic and destiny and a future he can’t explain to anyone—gets this one person who doesn’t ask him to justify himself. who doesn’t need him to be anything other than what he already is.
gwaine doesn’t see a servant.
he doesn’t see a mystery to be solved.
he sees merlin, and he stays.
and in a world where love is so often tangled up in obligation—where arthur’s bond with merlin is written in prophecy and inevitability—gwaine’s devotion feels almost radical in its simplicity.
he could leave.
he never does.
