Sir I'm on my knees begging for monster Simon spice that other anon had the CORRECT idea. Fish man going feral and going at it 🤤🤤🤤
monster simon, who’s disgusted by his own body. his gills, his claws, his multiple mouths. everything about him, he finds repulsive
monster simon, who follows your sub around throughout the blood ocean, using the sounds of your voice to locate you
monster simon, who’s absolutely desperate to save you from his fate. he pushes your sub to the surface multiple times, but the COI keeps sending you back down
monster simon, who avoids the front of the sub so you can’t take a picture of him. he doesn’t think he’s worthy of your gaze
monster simon, who scares away the eel and the light to protect you
monster simon, who finally snaps the chain connecting your sub to the towship in order to bring you to the surface
monster simon, who pries open the sub with his claws in order to free you from the COI
monster simon, who hides beneath the waves as you stumble out of your sub and search for your savior
monster simon, who can’t help the low trills echoing from his throat at seeing you draw closer to the blood
monster simon, who flinches when you kneel at the blood’s bank and desperately try to see through the red
monster simon, who almost leaves when you spot him and a smile covers your face
monster simon, who expects you to be terrified of him when instead you’re reaching for his face
monster simon, who hasn’t heard human speech in so long, trying desperately to understand what you’re saying to him
monster simon, who almost bites the hand that brushes his hair away from his face, but instead buries his cheek into your palm
monster simon, who can smell the pheromones lingering around your body the longer you’re close to him
monster simon, who’s about to burst from the ocean to claim you, but the sound of other human voices scares him off
monster simon, who mourns the absence of your sounds from the ocean
monster simon, who pleasures himself to the thought of you. your eyes, your hands, your voice
monster simon, who yearns for the day you return but dreads it all the same
Note: in this house we love our monster men. It's what we do here. So depending on who you're asking this can be either a "I didn't make him for you" or "dead dove don't eat" type post, so if you're not ok with me literally making this man into an actual monster, please ignore this post. :) Thank you.

For the first time since I started writing monster!Bucky Barnes before I got sick and started feeling like utter garbo...
I may or may not have- in the past like, 4 days, developed the insatiable urge to not just make a literal monster man out Simon, the main character from the Iron lung movie after the events that take place in said movie as an AU, but also...
Below the cut: Long ass post, Iron Lung ending mention, brief Iron Lung discussion that's probably not 100% lore accurate but who cares we're not here for that, sfw monster man/terato talk, fish-like monster mutation mentions, brief missing limb mention, mention of a fem!reader or oc in passing (literal blink and you miss it).
I guess I sort of had the idea to mix things up and pluck the strings of the typical "Am I still a man or am I a monster?" mixed with the Frankenstein-esque trope where Simon struggles with re-adapting to life amongst other humans now due to being both "The Butcher" on top of having been mutated by the god/eldritch creature beyond the light which some how "saved" him by keeping him alive after the explosion.
The concept I had with this is that- whatever entity or "god" this was that wanted to "see" into our world could only see so much, but the explosion Simon caused so close to the light some how- in that split second, widened the gap, and allowed it to stretch its influence out into Simons world and- as he was dying- it stitched him back together, replacing what the explosion had taken from him and, y'know, where he ripped off his arm, lol.
I don't really want to spoil my idea for how Simon looks but there would definitely be some fish like features, especially on the side he lost his arm. Scales on the neck, his back, the entire arm would be monstrous of course, or who knows maybe slap some tentacles on that side over there while we're at it lol.
He'd also probably get weird 'hungers' now too, which could either be a part of the creatures he's now merged with, or the god inside of him.
Because who doesn't love deep seeded, foreign, insatiable urges and appetites? >:3c I did say this was a monster fucker/terato post after all lol.
Anyways, I imagine that now that he's back on the station, he doesn't... know how to be.. himself, again? Because the caution people had toward him before with whispers of "the butcher" on their lips is now replaced with praise and joy with him being "the savior". People want to shake his hand, touch his shoulder, possibly even going as far as to try and hug him in thanks for saving humanity and bringing back hope, hope to finding out what truly caused the quiet rapture.
And it's just.. so much. Too much. Too many people, too many faces. Too many voices. All blending together like the voices back in the Iron Lung from that wretched abomination... It makes his chest tight and the edges of his vision go dark...
Then of course he'd meet either the fem!OC/reader, who I wanted to possibly be the scientist who was there when he woke up, and/or possibly even an 'old friend' of sorts. Someone else who likes the quiet, just like he does...
And thus would begin the whole sad simon struggling with himself internally, "am I a man or am I a monster?" arc, not feeling worthy, being afraid of what he's feeling, the new, the old.. and the new insatiable hunger that's slowly forming like an itch along with it.
Y'know, all that good, painful, "I just wanna bend and break this blorbo" stuff. <3 :3
Let me know if anyone likes this idea. I'm very much motivated by treats the kind words of others who think similar to me, so.. hehe.
If you have additional ideas, want to ask about this idea more, or wanna just chat about monster stuff or something idk, both my askbox and DM's are open. <3

Oh and for the new people, I don't have a DNI, I've been on tumblr since 2013 so I don't see the point in one, but obviously this post is marked mature so I'd just prefer that you're 20+ if you choose to send me anything. ^^; I also joined at peak markiplier time and I was in his fandom but that's irreverent.
Minors with accounts registered as under 18+ cannot view this post since it has a content label, so... :) Make use of those if you've got content you don't want them seeing either. Fun fact!
