I'm a fellow consumer of the DCA AUs content. I love them, every iteration and version, i eat it up. I'm addicted... And after some time, I guess I've got a thought for a Daycare Attendant AU myself.

THINK... A NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM DCA AU

Bear with me here.

Sun and Moon are non-sentient animatronics. Having fixed dialogues, pre-programmed performances, no intelligent AI whatsoever... Just your average automated celestial-themed puppets working as fancy interactive exhibitions at your local Planetarium! Y/N (Yes, this is a DCAxReader AU, so sue me) lands a job as a Night-time security employee, tasked with patroling the Planetarium after-hours, now that the last security guard was fired/died/retired (Not an important guy) and maybe it'll be a productive way to make use of their insomnia. The Planetarium is a rather odd place. Though it's popular, it is not really as advanced as one may think... It doesn't even have security cameras, apparently because some of those authentic ''moonrocks'' or ''asteroid bits'' supposedly emit radiation that messed up with the cables last time they tried to install some, but- Oh Well!! Work is work, and the pay is nice. But the work description nor the pay would've made Y/N think that one of those particular Funny Rocks From Space causes the animatronics and other electronic attractions to gain sentience and intelligence once the sun goes down. And to think this isn't a new ocurrence! The last guy had to deal with this too and never said a thing?!?! So now, of course, shenanigans ensue. Coming to terms with the situation, trying to make the most of it, maybe some angst (Of course some angst), and of course, having to spend their daily life alongside the two Not-So-Perpetually sentient celestial-themed animatronics. Maybe even fall in love? ❤️

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one! xP

I'm curious, what specifically do you study? Because it seems fascinating

Thanks! My main department was/will be (fingers crossed!) English/Lit, but I tend to work from a framework of critical queer and feminist theory, which I like to think makes it that much more fun. (Though I’m nerdy enough to think Renaissance drama and gothic novels are plenty fun on their own too…)

I was curious how you would feel about the historical wardrobe I loved the brightness and color scheme

I mean, it’s definitely more fantastical than accurate, but they didn’t go the currently-popular “don’t even try and call it an artistic choice” route (*cough*Reign*cough*) and I respect that. Much like Beauty and the Beast was fantasy with a clear Rococo influence- except that godawful yellow dress -this is fantasy with a clear Victorian influence. A solid attempt was clearly made; they didn’t just chuck everybody in modern prom dresses and call it a day.

Everyone’s hair is an amount of up that can be justified by saying it was influenced by certain 1870s styles and I didn’t see anyone wearing a corset over bare skin. And for this particular movie, I’ll take that and be happy with it. Especially because “dark Victorian-inspired masquerade ball with supernatural nuances” is pretty much my everything.

natp replied to your post “i’ve seen too many people say lena killed jack for kara/sg she didn’t...”

Jack deserves the credit, yes it was difficult to press enter, but he wanted her to do that both he and supergirl wouldn't be controlled. Jack died a hero

he really did though and i feel like we, as a fandom, really don’t give him any credit for that. we’re romanticizing his sacrifice and make it about supercorp which isn’t quite so right

I headcanons that you own a lot of book, enough to fit a bookshelf like a whole built in.

Canon.
