does circuit have darrell in this au ?
Block of Uranium.
high voltage stuff . did you know they are so Unbelievably stupid . Affectionate
High Voltage AU Masterpost 2.0 !
consists of a short summary of each event, followed by links to art of said event !
Coup attempt & betrayal:
Terminal is sick of Circuit being in charge and secretly asks Signal for help overthrowing him. Signal initially agrees, but later tells Circuit about the plan and blames Terminal for it entirely to gain favor. Signal is more involved than Terminal from this point forward.
1
Atlas incident:
After a period of Signal continuing to block Terminal’s control, Terminal resolves to scare Signal into letting it back into power. It successfully blinds Signal in one eye before the entire situation backfires horribly; Signal retaliates, accidentally injuring it much worse than he intended to. Signal, worried about Circuit finding out, dumps Terminal into the pit and tries to keep the whole incident a secret.

Harmonia incident:
Signal eventually returns to the pit to check Terminal’s condition. Terminal, generally hysterical and hallucinating due to blood loss, mistakes him for the Whole and is Extremely Fucking Weird And Religious about it. Signal is deeply unnerved and leaves again in a panic.
[In his time in the pit, Terminal’s lower horns grow into his eyes and blind him completely.]

Circuit blows up:
Due to the deteriorating relationship between the three, Circuit's health has steadily gotten worse. It knows Signal has done something to Terminal, as Signal fed it a false story about Terminal attacking him and then running away; it does not believe this. Eventually, it gets so fed up with this that it forces Signal into taking it to Terminal's location.

Terminal retrieval:
Circuit and Signal take Terminal out of the pit and begin the very very long journey to recovery. Things are tense between all three at first, but Signal and Terminal finally start to work their shit out after the latter is healed enough to be lucid.

Circuit Wuv:
After Signal and Terminal reach an understanding, they present a united front to Circuit. Instead of trying to overthrow him, Signal and Terminal make clear that they truly do want to rule equally with him. Circuit is unsure about this, but now that he's been shown the other two won't instantly discard him the second he's not forcing them to follow his orders, he warms up to the idea.

What’s Polar Orbit?: Another swap-adjacent AU, with some other twists and turns this time. Heart takes Soul’s place, Mind takes Heart’s place, and Soul takes Mind’s place. Soon to be represented through an askblog game. Stay tuned !

Woag!!! this au seems so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bc terminal takes heart's place, they're the one that gets blinded??? is this related to signal's attempts to (i presume) frame terminal for an overthrown attempt of circuit? Does circuit have a trident or does terminal still have it?WOWOW THis is suck a cool au >.<
thank you for your kind Words !!! x-]
yeah terminal is the one who's fully blinded. signal also loses one eye the way mind is often headcanoned to .
the overthrow/betrayal (which you are correct about :-]) and the blinding are Mostly unrelated events
terminal still has the trident !
Saw signal and knew i had to draw him oh my godness. ALL OF YOUR DESIGNS ARE SO PRETTY AUGHHH
Oh these are so cute!!!!
