I’m such a sucker for getting to draw mermaids.

Happy 500 @/shallot_girl 🎉 Saw some bioluminescence in an older post of your mer!lance as I was gathering references of your design for the dtiys and then this happened lol

Title: The Atlantean Secret

Chapter: 4/?

Author: AnchoredTether

Rating: M [graphic depictions of violence]

Pairings: Pidge | Katie Holt / Lance [Plance]

Tags: Alantis AU, Atlantean AU, Action/Adventure, Angst, Violence, Atlantis, Merman Lance, Mer!Lance, Heavy Angst, Whump, Tomb Raider AU, Mer AU, Hurt/Comfort, Serious Injuries, this is like 4 AUs lumped into one crazy adventure, all the characters are older and in their 20s, set in the same kind of timeline as Voltron where it's somewhat in the future

After years of hard work, Katie Holt finally cracks the dead Atlantean language and figures out the location of the lost city of Atlantis. With a crew of friends and experts, she continues the work her father started when they discover the city and find it exceeds their expectations of abandoned ruins. With the arrival of a hostile organization, an internal conflict, and a deadly secret hidden within the city, Katie's decisions could determine who lives and who dies.

And all her choices become infinitely harder when Lance is thrown into the equation.

This was originally going to be a time lapse but I uhhh screwed up and needed to download the CPS update first and then start drawing T^T but oh well. Some day soon I’ll make one.

Anywho, this is from Scaling Back and Lee gave me the brilliant idea of Pidge having to haul unconscious Lance’s fish butt by using her bayard like Rapunzel does with her hair dragging Eugene after she knocks him out. And yes I’ve decided that Lance conserves mass no matter what form he takes in this AU so he uhh... he weighs a ton XD 

Also took a stab at designing his Paladin armor for his tail and I figured the most moveable kind of plating would be something similar to how the Lions’ tails look like. As for his fins that are sticking out as well as his tail fins, I’m thinking that maybe a protective shield forms around them if he’s ever ejected into space? Similar to how the face shields cover their whole face when they’re out in space. But I can’t think of a scenario where Lance would have his tail and be out in space. But who knows, the fic is partially crack fic so it might happen later on.

Ophelia’s Wedding

Before she knew what was happening, Pidge found herself on her back, staring up at the sky and taking in the sensation of water on her back, soaking into the old dress and her hair.

“Now we are truly married!” Lance exclaimed, taking her arm in his hand with a grip that was much rougher in his exuberance, claws dangerously close to drawing blood. Pidge tried to keep herself calm; this was just to indulge the merman, she told herself, nothing to get excited about. If she wanted his help to fully catalogue all the species of aquatic plants and fauna in the bayou, she had to indulge this one little request he had made of her.

Lance nuzzled into her neck, rubbing the rough tulle of her veil against her skin and compounding her discomfort as her heart began to thud deeply in her chest.

“Oh, I know what’s missing! You need a bow-ket!” he told her. Pidge’s eyebrows came down for a moment as she tried to discern what he was saying in his broken English until a flash of bright pink came into her left peripheral. Her mouth formed a small “O” as she reached over and grasped a cropping of water lilies into her hand, dragging them by the stems over and settling a few on her chest in a laughable parody of a bridal bouquet.

Gazing up at the clear blue sky with an overeager merman at her side (or was that now mer-husband?), Pidge wondered how long she had to float there, waterlogged and losing feeling in her cold extremities, before she could shuck off this charade and get on with her research; force Lance to keep his end of the bargain now. But the pressure of his grip did not ease, no, not once, as they floated out farther into the water.

All my friends: awww look at the cute mermaids we’re drawing for mermay!

Me: okay but what if it was kinda DaRk!?

I got inspired my mighty need for a mer-wedding, but upon drawing this I realized that it’s also kinda also Creature from the Black Lagoon-esque? Whatever, I’m really happy with how it turned out! Happy Mer-May, everyone!
