DCA Subnautica AU

HEY

SO

MERMAY ISN'T OVER UNTIL MIDNIGHT RIGHT????!!!

kjdhfvksajhf

Anyways, I am posting my first ever mermay contribution totally not very late into the month!

It's just a couple doodles of the concepts I have in mind so far for it:

(They're not super polished because otherwise I wouldn't have been able to post them in time XD)

The AU follows the Subnautica plotline for the most part! You are stranded in this mostly submerged alien planet, finding yourself incapable of escaping due to the quarantine placed on it.

Exploring the biomes in order to survive, you come across many strange creatures, and among them, a very unique subset of the leviathan class. Sun and Moon appear to be particular in that they seem to possess intelligence comparable to that of humans, not to mention the fact that these leviathans seem to take after some species you encounter. Sun appears to be an evolved form of the Bone Sharks, while Moon takes after the Ghost Rays.

They take a special interest in you once they notice your constant but valiant presence all around the place.

They aren't the only ones that take note of you, however, as strange signals that get filtered through your escape pod's radio alert you that something out there might be on the hunt for you...

(Once I saw similarities between the roles of MXES and the warpers in subnautica, I knew I had to make a fusion of the two. Their designs are pretty different though, so hopefully I did a good job trying to combine them!)

This is a very bare bones explanation of the AU, but I'm very excited to keep brainstorming about it! :D I hope you guys like it! ^-^

Your fics are so good I am genuinely experiencing severe distress. I am crashing out over fanfiction and making up fanfanfiction about it in my head I MIGHT BE SCHIZO

*grabs notebook and pen, leaning in close*

Wanna share some ideas, friend??? I, uh, I'm asking for a friend.

No but seriously, that is one of the best things I could hear???? Well, not the distress part but my fic was captivating enough that you're thinking about it (and adding more to the story, even if it is just in your head lol) after reading it????? Thank you so much 🥹🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭😭😭 that just made my whole day!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you so many and much!!!!!

It just inspires me to "stress" you out more (btw, the intro to chapter 4 is Moon angst! He's isn't a happy camper 😞)

Thank you again!!!!

On another note, I love subverting the usual DCA trope where Moon/Sun/Eclipse is more dangerous than the reader. Where Y/N is actually the predator to the prey trope. Or at the very least more likely to kick the boys' asses if they got in a genuine fight.

And yes, this has already spawned another AU idea, where the boys are faerie princes and Y/N is a spider sorcerer that ends up catching them in their web one day, but ultimately decided to let them go after a bit of back and forth and silent scheming. You'll certainly be keeping a close eye on them from now on... :)

Will you accept his love?

The song I was inspired: "light off" by Kyle Allen Music (YouTube).

Eerie, dark, quiet.

Standing still in the darkness, part of the quiet space that was mearly a capsule. Staring down an isle of desks to a ghost light, with age the light flickered at random, showing glimpses of the area at hand.

A sterile workshop.

Silence was the only music sung in this foreboading workshop, displays with hanging wires and dark humanoid shapes that stood like statues in the corners of the dark, revealed by a sickly highlight on their metallic forms by the ghost light.

The thing that captures attention the most is the glass at the forefront of it all, a large dark shape looming in the corner with wires hanging sickly and sparking, power was running in that containment unit.

Moving closer, slowly with caution.

Their body shook attempting to speak, seeing the shape behind the glass so frightening yet so... Familiar.

"... Moon...?"

Nothing but the echos of a soft, anxious voice bouncing off the cold, unforgiving walls. Striking back into the humans chest and settling into anxiety.

Each step closer made the heart sink more.

"Is that you...?"

Each breath felt like the last.

"Moon...?"

Grotesque metallic clicking rung out like some sort of gun, sending the human's heart to their throat; the robotic being was craning its neck and adjusting their faceplate, revealing their rotted form, colorful shelling splintered and missing, new foreign wires slink out of their robotic openings and connect them to whatever ghastly system was running above.

Their celestial expression destroyed, dirty, and revealing their true face. A knife of cherry red sliced through the darkness, two red spotlights shining down on the human with a hot glow- burning the skin.

They towered the containment unit, almost reaching the ceiling if not for them hunching their posture. Like staring at a caged animal, not knowing at all what they could do- if you were just a shape to them with the label 'INTRUDER'. All the human could do themselves was appear small.

Shaking in place theres no where to go but foreward, taking one, brave step.

"Hello Moon..."

Like a rabbit approaching a wolf, a stillness was felt for a moment, almost peaceful, if not for the foreboading undertone of uncertainty and fear.

Clicking forward, a mechanical hand began to venture from the dark corner slowly reaching out towards the glass, almost beckoning, the dim lighting revealing more of the torn apart casing, leaving only a skeletal hand made of metal and filled with pulled wires. Lungs become ragged at the gesture. Panic stirs in the heart as the large, metal hand grew closer, almost like it was pointing if not for its advancement.

The glass felt invisible as they grew nearer, the heart jolting with electricity and pure fear swallowing ones being, all consuming and uncontrolled.

And just like that.

Conciousness plucked and placed.

Hazily coming back to reality, lifting from the hard bed to see the blurred lettering of the television.

Continue watching?
