AU where everything is the same but Ben is an Anodite part two.

So, I wanted to do some more of my most popular AU so here we go! The original post for this AU is by far my most popular post, so as thanks here's a part two. I swear I will write Ben discovering his powers at some point.

- Ben is so not in control. With all this mana just waiting to be released he doesn't know how to level his powers, meaning he either lets out too little mana, or too much. Kevin thinks it's hilarious until he's engulfed in a mana fist that Ben caught him with.

- Max is just so done. When he had kids with Verdona he knew that he'd probably end up with Andodine kids, but not two ultra powerful grandkids, one of which is constantly being chased by intergalactic bounty hunters, a ghost and a little gremlin that refuses to leave Ben be. 

- Ben eventually is able to do a 'Lucky Girl' sort of thing where he can control what form he's in: human or Anodite. Not many people know about his Anodite form, so he uses it if he needs a disguise. No one expects the green hero to be a pink energy being with hair like Rapunzel.

- Speaking of the hair, Rapunzel is his new nickname from Kevin. Kevin will never let it down that Anodite form Ben has 10' hair. 

- Oh, yeah, his parents? Freaking out. It's clearly established that their dads know about Verdona, but his parents are still going crazy. First they have to deal with their son being a superhero now they have to deal with him being an actual alien??

- Last thing is that very few people actually know about Ben. It's one part of his life he's managed to keep a secret. He loves his new powers, and he's best at flight, he's like a comet over Bellwood. Only the Plumbers, a select few villains and his family know about it, and he'd like to keep it that way.

If anyone has anything to ask about the AU, send something in. This is one of my favourite AUs to write for so it'd be fun to have an excuse to do some stuff for it.

Anodite! Ben 10 AU

I recently fell into this hole and I'm pulling everyone else with me.

Anodite! Ben where it's not just a role swap where Gwen has the Omnitrix.

- Ben still has the watch but there's a typical moment where Ben can't turn into anything during a fight and he instinctively puts his hands up to protect himself from an attack and when the smoke clears he sees a pink shield in front of him. Of course, both he and Kevin think it's Gwen but she isn't doing anything. They then realise that Ben has the same powers as Gwen.

- When Verdona comes to earth Ben and Gwen explain that they both have powers, but Ben's are lot more temperamental than Gwen's, as he hasn't had proper training. Verdona tries to take both of them off Earth but she also tries to take the Omnitrix because she thinks Ben should literally only be using his Anodite powers.

- Ben is slightly annoyed that his powers aren't green because the pink doesn't fit his aesthetic ™. Though he makes do and starts learning from Gwen, but still prefers his watch. He tends to only use his powers when it comes to his watch being timed out.

- When Ben uses his powers in front of Michael Morningstar suddenly he's a huge target for the creep. Darkstar is no longer just after Gwen, instead trying to get energy from Ben as well. Ben actually has a lot more mana than Gwen, just no one knew it because he hadn't ever been able to use his powers. He becomes one of Darkstar's biggest targets, even when Darkstar meets Charmcaster.

- Having never met a male Anodite, they all find out how male and females differ for that species. Turns out it's very similar to humans in terms of appearance, but it turns out males have longer ‘hair’. It's suddenly very strange when Ben goes full Anodite and he's 90% hair.

You all have to watch me fall into the AU holes with me. Anyway, send me asks about AUs as well as headcanons.

gen:LOCK Avatar AU

This is a continuation of an AU already on my blog. Feel free to send asks about this AU and others on my blog (actually, I ask that you do send asks!).

Yasamin, despite having trained the least out of the team, is one of the best benders they have. Having been taught by air bender Weller, she's much lighter than most earth benders, but she uses that to her advantage. She propels herself and attacks from a distance, rather than hurling huge boulders at her foes and staying rooted to the spot.

Val/entina of course didn't like their bending style until they saw Weller in action. For a guy in his middle ages, he's surprisingly nimble. It took them a while to actually even say anything about their bending because they didn't like it. They didn't reveal it until Cammie was in danger. When they did reveal it, everyone was in awe and Yasamin and Kazu realised they were very much in love with Valentina Romanyszyn.

Cammie is very young and fiery, as expected of her bending type. She isn't extremely confident with her bending, as she grew up mainly using it for house hold work (cooking, lighting fires), rather than using it for offensive means. Everyone is extremely surprised when she is up against Nemesis and she just attacks him with powerful blows - even if he is ignoring them. After working with the team more, she starts being more confident with her bending, and eventually learns to redirect and generate lightning.

Kazu is much heavier in his fighting style than Yasamin. He's also a metal bender, but is used to building, rather than attacking. He lived in Zou Fu briefly as part of the guard, before becoming part of the team. He and Yasamin learn from each other, and he's incredibly surprised when he finds out that Yasamin hasn't been properly bending for very long. He bowed down and told her that he is not worthy.

Julian is a healer, as well as a spirit bender. He's used to offense, but is often seen filling his ability as a healer. He's typically seen making quick fixes to wounds when a proper medic can't get out. Julian is part of the Republic City police force, being the first water bender on the force (similar to how he was the first successful gen:LOCK subject).

Nemesis is (if rather cheesily) Julian's twin brother. Nem ran off after their father died, returning after years having learned blood bending. Julian knows the most about Nem, saying that Nem used to be nice, that they used to be conjoined at the hip and that they went everywhere together. Their father dying split them up and Julian is broken when Nem comes back a skilled blood bender. Julian is even more upset when Nem uses his blood bending on Cammie, who isn't sure how to treat Julian - whom had assumed Nem to be dead. Nemesis is also just a nickname (similar to how Amon is just an alter ego for Noatak).

Weller is an air bending master - though he hides his tattoos most of the time. When the team do find out that he has tattoos, they're all awe struck, but a little guilty because suddenly everyone knows he's a master, something he wanted to keep a secret but he had to reveal to protect them. He's alive in this AU. Him revealing his tats line up with him in the show blowing up the lab. Simply because I do not have the guts to kill team dad.

Faunus Qrow AU

AU where Raven and Qrow are bird faunus. Both of them have much more feathery hair. There isn't much about Raven as I haven't really fleshed her out in this AU.

Qrow himself has tail feathers, which he typically tucks up against his back and hides with his cape and jacket. He knows from experience growing up that they can be used against him. He also knows how horrible some people can be.

Qrow is much closer to Blake in this AU. They both bond over mutual experiences with racists and seeing Blake be more open about being a Faunus makes him do the same.

When they go to Atlas, they're both unsure about how people will react, but both of the are ready to defend themselves and the team would defend them in a heartbeat.

Ozpin saw the twins and was motivated by their faunus appearances (Qrow with a crows tail feather shape and Raven with raven legs) when deciding what they would turn into. Nora definitely went even crazier when it came to finding out.

Around Volume 6 is when Qrow starts being more open about being a Faunus. He confides in Ruby and Yang, who definitely knew beforehand and have heard about his struggles. He also finds himself talking to Blake - the only other Faunus - and Maria - the only older person - quite often. They both relate to him on some level and he realises how nice it is to have someone to talk to.

Both he and Blake are encouraged not to cover up their Faunus features as they're a part of themselves. The team makes it very clear they're ready to fight anyone who even looks at them wrong.

Also, it's jokes galore with these kids and at Patch. Everyone who knows about Qrow can't handle the fact that he's got crow features and that's his name. Qrow can barely go a day with these people and not have ‘what's got your feathers ruffled?’ Or ‘you're not getting the worm this morning?’ He can't decide whether to be amused or mad. He decides both when Yang cracks a particularly good joke over dinner.

The only other people who know much about it before Qrow started being open were Glynda, Ozpin, Ironwood and Winter.

Sorry for such a disconnected, long, rambly post. Send me asks about this AU!

gen:LOCK RWBY AU

Just before you read this, just know pretty much all of the team have guns.

The g:L team as a group of hunters and huntresses, because while I've seen someone do RWBY as the g:L team, I've never seen it as the g:L team as RWBY.

Chase is a hunter who was in an accident with a Grimm that took away his arm and legs. They were replaced with prosthetics, but they constantly need to be repaired because something about the Grimm caused the stumps to be strangely unaccepting of the prosthetics. Chase has a gun (duh) as his weapon, that shoots lasers rather than regular bullets. His semblance allows him to fly for a short amount of time.

Yasamin is the adoptive daughter of Dr Weller. She's a huntress who also has a gun (gasp) and she is a bird Faunus. She was originally part of the Union, which is a an organisation that uses violence to gain ‘peace’. They were originally a Faunus organisation, but they've started teaming up with humans. Yas’ semblance gives her heightened reflexes and strength, similar to what the body suits do in the show.

Kazu is the only member who doesn't have a gun, instead he uses a katana that can slice through pretty much anything. His semblance allows him to increase his density, pretty much breaking the laws of the physics. It lets him punch extremely hard and lets him take hits.

Cammie is a rabbit Faunus, with rabbit ears. Her weapon is a gun, but she prefers hand to hand combat. Her semblance increases the strength in her legs, allowing her to jump high and land on enemies with a lot of force. She has also been adopted by Weller. (Was going to give her a semblance that let her talk to tech, but rabbit abilities amirite?)

Val/entina is a sniper, their weapon is a high-tech sniper rifle, with a knife option, they typically find high spots and snipe from there. Their semblance allows them to ‘merge’ with team mates, giving them control of their body to guide them. They need to be allowed in to it, and they need to be close to the person in question.

Weller is their guardian. He was a hunter, but now he guards and protects the team, while teaching them more about hunting. He built Chase's prosthetics and helps maintain them. He takes a similar role to Qrow, where he's everyone's dad now, except he's not drunk. Weller's semblance let's him break down attacks as they're coming at him and he can create a near-perfect counter attack for them. The semblance doesn't work if he isn't given a decent amount of time to break down the attack. He decided to adopt Cammie and Yasamin after they both lost their parents. He doesn't really have a weapon, but he does constantly carry explosives. He prefers to talk his way out of a situation.

Feel free to send me asks about this AU or the other AUs I've got on here.

Credit to @probably-chase for helping me with Weller's semblance. Go check out his blog!

gen:LOCK Avatar/Legend of Korra AU

The gL team are element benders of different types. They're lead by Rufus Weller: An air bender. The team consists of

Julian Chase: a water bender who was injured in a bad fight against the Union - a radical group of non-benders who are now teaming up with benders.

Yasamin Madrani: an earth bender who once worked with the Union, hiding her powers. When she was found by Weller, she finally started training. Since then, she's started working on becoming a lava bender.

Cammie MacCloud: the youngest team member and a fire bender. She's currently working with Yasamin as the two of them work on sub-element bending.

Kazu Iida: another earth bender, as well as a metal bender (albeit not a very good one). He mainly tanks and uses heavy attacks, and isn't all that nimble.

Val/entina Romanyszyn: the only other air bender. They don't really like being an air bender as it doesn't play well into their fighting style. Everyone but Weller and Yasamin didn't actually know what they bent as they rarely use it, preferring hand to hand combat rather than using their powers.

Rescue Mission

It's short but here's a fic of the Rat Hunters, most of which is written by the lovely @polandspringz you should read her Rat Hunters stuff if you want a better picture. Only Rattul and Salkar belong to me. Poland belongs to @polandspringz. Sals belongs to @salsie Ratdito belongs to @probably-chase and Lab belongs to @labradoodleduck check them all out, they're awesome! Feel free to send asks about Rattul if you wish.

All of the Hunters were different. Sals was a big bear, never seen without Poland by her side. Ratdito was eccentric, but charmingly so. Their leader, Lab, was an enigma, but they all trusted him.

Then came Rattul, the newest member of the Hunters. She was the wife of the Rat King they all hated so much, yet she hated him just as much as they did. Through Salkar, she had explained that her exposure to the Rat King had turned her into the squid-human hybrid she was. Salkar had also explained that Rattul had an aversion to calling the Rat King by his name and that she was now rendered unable to speak in coherent English due to the mutation.

Noises that did come from Rattul's mouth were typically limited to laughter, grunts and hums. Occasionally there would be a ‘woomy’ or a ‘victory!’ Most of the talking was done by Salkar, which Lab would then have to relay to the rest of them. Though Rattul would come armed with a pen and paper, and she could say words - they were just hard to understand if she spoke too fast.

Her first mission was an uneasy one. She knew the others were wary of her, she felt exactly the same. After all, she was the wife of the King, and they were the enemies of said King. Hell, Rattul was responsible for the guards that guarded Poland and Lab. Under the same reasoning, she was also responsible for telling them both escape routes and guard changes so they could get out easier than before.

Rattul sat with Salkar on her shoulder, goggles pulled down over her face. Despite being five feet from the nearest Hunter, she could feel the distrust rolling off of them in waves. The Inkling rolled her eyes, a warbled sigh coming from her.

It was a simple mission: go in, rescue some refugees, get out. Easy enough. They all watched Lab, waiting for his signal. Poland sat on Sals’ back, low to the bears back. Everyone else crouched down, covered only by the dark shadows of night.

Then, came the signal from Lab, telling them all to go. They were off like rockets, all to do their assigned jobs with varying degrees of grace. Rattul climbed in through the window, turning into a squid as she went. Landing neatly on the floor, she pulled the Flingza Roller off her back, hoisting it up, ready to use.

“This way.” Poland and Sals had entered now, ready to lead everyone out.

Poland slid off Sals’ back, gesturing for the refugees. When some turned to Rattul, she simply gestured towards Poland and Sals, a gentle smile on her face. Refugees could be difficult, especially when children were amongst them. This time, they seemed to be easy, all following Poland to where Ratdito waited outside.

Rattul gripped her roller, surveying the area. Her concentration failed when a weight hit her legs. Jumping, she looked down to see a child. It was a human child, no more than 5 years old.

“Are you gonna help us?” The child asked, voice filled with the innocence only a child could hold.

Rattul placed the roller on her back, bending down to pick up the child.

“Yes.”

The child giggled, a bright smile on her face. “Your voice is funny!”

Rattul smiled at the girl, showing off her beak shaped teeth. “Yes it is.”

Making her way towards the refugees, Rattul hoisted the child into a more comfortable position. After fifteen minutes, the refugees were all safe, ready to return home.

Rattul placed the child on the ground, giving her a final hug before watching her run off to her parents.

“I didn't think you were a kid-person.” Lab sounded amused.

Rattul shrugged, shoving her hands in her pockets. “Woomy.”

[rea-ofsunshne]

Okay so I love the OCs my friends and I have made so here's a fic, but unfortunately it's mainly with the two gays.

Euca belongs to me, Eclipse belongs to @polandspringz , Clover belongs to @cammie-maccloud and Lavender belongs to @gaylasoona. Go check them all out, they're all dears.

Euca could remember meeting her team. Her hair had been shorter back then, styled with pretty white bows she had since replaced with brown bows from Eclipse. She remembered back then she'd made an attempt to hide the curling horns on the side of her head, but no matter of styling of big bows could hide them.

Though, when she'd met Eclipse and Clover and Lavender, she got excited and never wanted to be apart. She got excited showing them her skills and semblance, and she got excited seeing theirs. After a solid year with them, she could firmly say she loved them all.

Euca sat next to Eclipse, listening to her as she went on about how her semblance worked after Euca had playfully called her a solar panel for the fifteenth time. Clover had gotten an early night and was already asleep, while Lavender sat dozing off on her bed.

“So, there you have it. I'm not a solar panel.” Eclipse finished, crossing her arms.

Euca grinned. “Whatever, I'm still gonna call you a solar panel, solar panel.” She quickly pecked Eclipse on the cheek before escaping her arms as she reached for her.

It was their second night back, finally their second year had come. The day had been spent watching the first years in their team building test. It was always funny to see the different people come together.

“Get back here you over grown sh-” Eclipse was cut off as a noise sounded from outside, promptly awaking Clover and Lavender.

Immediately, they were in action, despite all four of them being in pyjamas. The four of them grabbed their weapons and were heading out of the door, where confused and tired students were poking their heads out of their doors.

The team ran down the corridor, their shoes only half on. Quickly, they were out the front door, quickly finding out what was happening: an attack. It wasn't a Grimm attack, instead it looked as if it was some extremist group, but Euca didn't recognise their symbol. As soon as they were outside, team CELE were a target. Bottles stuffed with burning rags and fuel were being thrown at them, along with less rudimentary explosives and rocks.

“Split up,” Clover called, “knock them out, but don't kill them, they look human.”

The other three nodded at their leader, Lavender rushing away, Eclipse heading away from them and Euca heading towards them. It was a flurry of noises, lights and smells. Burning oil reached their noses in a pungent odour, while flames filled their surroundings with an orange glow and heat.

From the corner of her eye, Euca saw a small group of them head after the glow of Eclipse, but turned her focus back to her goons.

Euca gripped her sickles tight, ready to strike. She wasn't used to fighting against humans, any training she had done was with her team or was simple hand to hand. The goons approached her, rushing towards her, having switched projectiles for knives.

Gritting her teeth, Euca struck out with her scythes, hitting goons with the blunt side of the weapons. It didn't take them out very quickly, but the force of the blows were at least enough to knock them away. She huffed. The heat and grime in the air were enough to make her sweat, but the added effort of taking out multiple muscular human beings definitely didn't help her any. They kept managing the get close enough to cut her before she could hit them.

After a solid five minutes of fighting goons that just kept coming, she stopped. Panting, she stood still for a moment before taking in a deep breath. In the exhale, she let out a mighty roar, or rather a scream. Her semblance boosted it, sending the mercenaries flying, ears bleeding.

That was the good thing about her semblance, she could be as loud as she wanted, still get boosted and not end up with vocal damage. It did leave her a little light headed though…

Placing her hands on her knees, the faunus panted as she attempted to regain her breath. After a moment, she stood up straight, gripping her scythes again.

“Guys, I'm done with mine what els-” she was cut off.

“Euca!” She heard a voice cry, it was muffled and thick, but she could've sworn that was Eclipse.

Then, she was on the floor, head pounding and ears ringing. Her weapon had flown from her hands and her back felt hot. Something was touching her back, but it wasn't unwelcome. They were gentle hands, familiar, but she could name the owner of them.

“Euca! Hey, answer me, you're okay, right?” That was definitely Eclipse.

A groan escaped her as she gathered what remained of her aura and began to heal herself. “I'm fine.” Euca rolled over, assisted by Eclipse. “Take a look at yourself though, you're bleeding.”

Eclipse lifted her hand to touch her head, where blood dripped from a still bleeding wound. “Oh. It's nothing, I didn't just get thrown by an explosion.” She smiled. Eclipse's hair was still down, and both of their pyjamas had been ruined, now ripped in areas and covered in dirt and sweat and grime.

“Can we go inside and shower now?” Euca asked, finally sitting up. “I'm tired but I'm not sleeping like this.”

Eclipse rolled her eyes. “Nice to know I worried for nothing. You're right though, I could do with a shower.”

Feel free to send me asks about Euca or the AUs I've got up on this blog. I'll have some more stuff out soon, but for now just send me asks and I'll do my best to answer them.
