Okay, go with me on this one:

BloodyMary Atlantis: The Lost Empire AU (with a twist!)

Grace is obviously our Milo Thatch, a passionate scholar discounted for his radical theories and recruited for a mission that may actually prove them right. The expedition party consists of the Hail Mary team and the COI, pursuing knowledge and resources respectively.

They reach Atlantis and find a living human civilization whose people believe the world above was destroyed centuries ago and only their descendants were spared by the mercy of some deity they call The Last Tree. Their leader, the Father, assigns a handful of his faithful the task of "guiding" these visitors during their time in the city - or, more accurately, keeping them in check and finding out what they know. Despite warnings not to trust the outsiders, Simon quickly becomes fascinated with this overworld they claim to come from (and with Grace but that's beside the point) 

Loyalties are tested, secrets are uncovered, powers emerge to threaten both worlds, and the unlikely duo find themselves caught in the middle of it all (dun dun duuuuuun!)

I'm just debating whether to make Rocky a human member of the expedition or have the Eridians as an endemic species pre-dating Atlantis, because I refuse to leave out Grace's bestie!

Edit: LEVIATHAN BLOOD EEL!!

I've been mulling over an Avatar the Last Airbender AU for BloodyMary... Not sure if I'll ever write it, so figured I'd throw some sketches out there for people to enjoy

[promptprompty]

So i fell down the bloodymary rabbithole and a new idea spawned. I present to you Grace takes the small eridians on a school trip on the Hail Mary (Adrian and Rocky naturally being the other adult supervision), and they find Simon. Cue lots of adorable tiny eridians being menaces to Simon's sanity.

Part 1 of 3: Simon's POV

I got no new comics yet so Im'ma post this short animatic I made a couple of weeks ago... It's a trilogy so buckle up for part 2 and 3 😁🙌

[ratsoupee]

Haha lookit em go!!

Bloodymary headcanon because this AU has taken my brain by storm

Simon doesn't call the Hail Mary by its name, only ever referring to it as "the ship" and never addressing its AI directly. After learning about Eden and the SM-13, Grace initially attributes this to a mix of religious trauma and associating the disembodied computer voice with the speaker on the sub.

It isn't until much later that Simon confides in Grace that Mary was his late mother's name. At the time of his rescue it had seemed like a sick cosmic joke, a constant reminder of the person he'd loved most and whose loss still haunts him. Over time, though, he comes to see it as a kind of divine intervention. Like his mom had answered his dying prayer by sending an angel to save him.

I got suddenly inspired when I was relistening to the Pacific Rim OST and pumped out some concept for a Bloody Mary Pacific Rim AU.

I took a LOT of inspiration from pre-existing Jaegers from Pacific Rim and Mass Priduction Eva from Evangelion and mix and matched to try and come up with the Iron Lung and Hail Mary Jaegers.

I have some important information for the BloodyMary fandom.

So I know a few of us love the Eden is a cult plot point.

St. Adrian of Nicomedia is the patron saint of:

Soldiers

Guards

Arms dealers

Annnnnd BUTCHERS

Ok now imagine Simon being introduced to Adrian before he’s entirely sure is not in fact dead.

And something in his brain latches on to that name and he’s utterly convinced that this is a saint sent to guide him along with the angel (grave or rocky) through after life.

Idk I will be using it for religious trama in my fic please and thank you

Both Simon and Ryland have a thing for praise but they stem from different sources.

Grace has a praise kink because - random bouts of confidence aside - he just doesn't seem to have a very high opinion of himself overall. Yet he still wants to be good enough, and so genuinely complimentary praise that imply he IS good enough, or challenges his low view of himself flusters him to no end.

Simon has a praise kink because he hasn't experienced much kindness throughout his life, and so genuinely kind words, with no artifice or motive behind them, just because the person wants to make him feel good or happy, makes him short circuit.

Of course once Grace and Simon respectively realize this in each other they immediately set about showering the other in praise because how DARE this gorgeous, beautiful, kind, gentle man even think for a SECOND that he is undeserving. Hilarious thing is they dOn't realize this is the pot calling the kettle black. They don't realize this applies to daily life yes, but they're also Horny™ about it. And they are also both kinda bad at it

For one they're both desperately trying to push down their feelings for each other. Totally friendly platonic bromance compliments yes, nothing to see here haha

And Simon grew up in an environment where kindness = weakness and so he is severely out of practice on how to put his emotions into words. Ryland is also emotionally constipated (in a different manner) and he's a yapper and awkward af on top of that so he's just blurting stuff out.

Clownery.

These two spend WEEKS stiltedly trying to compliment each other and failing. Neither of them realize what they're actually doing is attempting (emphasis on ATTEMPTING) to flirt.

Adrian has heard too much about it through Rocky's constant complaining about human stupidity.

This persists up until they figure their shit out and finally get together. In which they realize [insert spiderman pointing meme] and also [achievement unlocked: new kink] and they start trying to one up each other. This is partially motivated by them needing to make their partner feel loved. But let's be honest - they're little shits sometimes. I honestly think they would get competitive. I think they would find it fun.

We're talking about Ryland "you'll never believe this. NOTHING HAPPENED" Grace and Simon "It had letters on it. I can read. How stupid do you think I am?"

They're little shits. They like seeing each other flustered and they HAVE to get a good grade at flirting with their partner, a goal that is both Normal To Want And Possible To Achieve. Obviously.

Anyways. Rocky doesn't stop complaining for months.

"I'm not worth all this." Simon said, his voice breaking through the comfortable silence he and Grace had settled into moments ago. Rocky was asleep behind them, and they were both leaned against the protective dome encircling Rocky- a projection of a forest at night played on the screens surrounding the three of them.

Grace looked over at Simon, confused and worried. Simon didn’t like that expression on him. He preferred him smiling. He wanted to reach out and smooth the wrinkles between his eyebrows, but he refrained. He didn't deserve to touch him. He didn’t.

"I, um," Grace laughed awkwardly and immediately hated himself for the reaction, but he really wasn't sure how to proceed here, "Si, that's- what do you mean?" Simon let out a grunt in response, his face contorting to form a sort of uncomfortable grimace. He had a hard time articulating his feelings. It wasn’t exactly something Eden found important to teach. This wasn’t a feeling though, it was fact. And yet, he still couldn’t figure out how to put it in the right words.

"It’s-" he started, interrupting himself to huff, "it's just-... I've- I've done... awful things, and-" 'You deserved to die,' a voice rung out in his head, 'You deserve to rot. Life is wasted on you. You would do far better as fertilizer. That is your purpose.' Simon drew in a long, shaking breath, "I'm not worth your time. Or your resources. I shouldn't-"

"Simon," Grace interrupted, his voice unwavering- expression serious and bold. His brow was still wrinkled, but something about the intensity of Grace's eyes made the expression less offensive to Simon than it had been prior. He felt pinned under Grace's gaze now though, like a butterfly to a board. Grace pressed on, as though the sudden intensity hadn't completely discombobulated Simon.

"I need you to understand that I don't care what you did. Whatever it was, it's in the past. If you ever want to talk about it- to talk through it, I'm here- but it does not condemn you. Not to me. Alright?" Grace's pupils darted slightly about Simon's face, waiting for a response that didn’t want to come. Simon was completely thrown. He had never had anyone look at him like that, and it was... it was too much. He suddenly stood, heart pounding, staring down at Grace. Grace's eyes had followed him up, and he seemed so surprised- so concerned. Simon couldn't take it.

He fled the room, grateful for the fact that Grace didn't seem to be following him, though he did hear him call his name as he left. He paused in one of the halls of the Hail Mary, resting against a wall and catching his breath. He put his head in his hand, his mind rushing. He peered at the ground through his fingers. Pristine white. Like most of the things in the place. He could feel his face against the palm of his hand. It felt... hot. Was he mutating again? He felt like he couldn't hold onto a single coherent thought, like he was going to throw up or something- and then Grace's face flashed through his mind. The piercing gaze he had just been caught beneath, then him smiling- laughing, and then him asleep at his desk after passing out while working... Simon knew what this was. He'd just- he'd never experienced it personally. His hand slowly balled into a fist, fingers clawing not so gently against his skin as he shut his eyes tight.

"Fuck."

Was inspired by the wonderful post by @hailed-marys so me and @sam-i-am-27 got possessed by the demons and came out with this.

HC list under the cut

* Astrophage is more like a virus that either alters people, causing them to commit crimes or violent acts, or a power that supervillains are starting to use.

* Grace is still a middle school teacher who got bitten by the spider, obviously.

* Adrian is the one who stitched up the suit (the Aunt May of this universe).

* He has all the perks of a normal Spider-Man, but he's still Grace, so he's incredibly clumsy. He does have a super-strong spider sense, and that's what saves him 100% of the time, but he absolutely does not have the agility. When adrenaline kicks in, he can do anything, but otherwise he'll trip over the most ridiculous things.

* He was wearing his yellow raincoat the first time he saved someone, so now he wears it over his suit (along with his white Converse).

* The spider was discovered by SHIELD (which is undercover as a scientific research facility that Grace works for part-time). After the original test subjects (who were only able to survive the spider mutations if they possessed a specific gene) were killed in an attack, Eva delivered the spider to Grace so he could be bitten before other villains got their hands on that power. (My boy gets unwillingly turned into a savior in every universe.)

* Simon is still an ex-convict who, in exchange for his freedom, is asked by the evil company of the day to test a series of mines infected by what appears to be blood from a meteorite (which eventually turns out to be the symbiote Ellie!).

* At first, they wanted to kill each other, but they end up becoming besties.
