More minibatch adventure I need a full show maybe too XD

A WIP for the merfolk au I’m working on! I decided to make Echo a war veteran who’s retired on the shores of Lake Superior. He fishes for a hobby, despite his disability, and also spends a lot of his time removing illegal gill nets/fish traps and abandoned fishing gear from his area. He has made friends with a shoal of the lake’s merfolk who spend their time doing similar work to help preserve the native species they herd.

I know it’s a little hard to tell, but this is how I think Omega’s introduction to the Batch will go: Echo comes across her caught in an illegal net, and wants to free her. But she certainly doesn’t make it easy! Although merfolk aren’t a secret in this au, there is animosity between humans and merfolk because the merfolk aren’t afraid to sabotage humans who treat their home waters disrespectfully. So there’s not a whole lot of trust between the two worlds. Omega doesn’t know Echo isn’t the owner for the net she was caught in, and it’s pretty scary being all tangled up like that! Echo’s hand will be fine. Though he’ll have a nice scar to remember the kid by XD

I’ve seen a lot of mermaid au’s where the characters are sea creatures. Freshwater fish often get overlooked. Which is a shame! There are a lot of really cool freshwater species, and I think they should get more love in these au’s! Last year for MerMay I designed a red-finned catfish Hunter mer, and this is kinda a continuation of that idea! I’ve got a lot of plans for this au, so stay tuned if you like it!!

This is my contribution to the Clone Flowers Fic Event that myself and some other mutuals are doing this week! Naturally, I had to snag Hunter 😉 I got a little carried away with this one, but honestly, I'm super, super proud of it!!

*Takes place after the events of TBB s3*

Enjoy!! 🥰 (divider by @firefly-graphics)

BE STILL MY BEATING HEART

Me when reader reveals a red rose symbolizes love and Hunter gives them the SWEETEST KISSES as if I didn't read a Hunter fic for those EXACT reasons

"Tech told me about your ✨sparkling✨ personality" because the writers refused to give us this scene.

And I will shamelessly reuse this quote from Everything Everywhere All At Once featuring The Universal Horrors.

I knew it was just one line in Juggernaut but it was enough to make me run to my drawing tab and create this. I love how that ONE LINE made Techphee canon to me because it implied that they had ✨moments✨, they had dates, they had slow walks in the cold nights of Pabu where they talked about anything under the stars.

He would talk about how the regs made fun of them for being different, how they learned to embrace themselves and how his brothers used to fight a lot and make up afterwards.

He would talk about the Clone Wars, all their missions together, and that one time the male Yalbecs tried to mate with them.

And him.

And Phee would listen. She would lovingly look up at his brown eyes, and listen.

And this is why I'm not a writer.

I like you. You don't fit in around here either.

POLLS CLOSE SUNDAY, MAY 26th

people who let me wake up to this get a special place in heaven. firefly_fox how does it feel to hold my life in ur hands....

my favorite thing about this post is that a handful of people have gone "oh wait! this is tangible proof that i don't need to be embarrassed about leaving a lot of comments!! i'll stop being so ashamed!" YES!! ao3 authors basically universally will die for people who comment spam. we love to see it and we do not find you weird or annoying At All.

think about it this way: we ourselves are weird enough to have spent several hours, days, or Months writing down this story. we are weird enough about the content to do that! why on Earth would we be mean and judgmental toward people who care enough to get excited about reading it?? we shared it Specifically For You To Get Excited About!

Please I am begging you. And the memes won’t stop until you give them to me.

i cannot stop looking at this and think that he's taking a selfie

Phee: Aren't you going to smile?

Tech: I thought I was?

BONUS:

A silly comic about these dads because I miss them and I’m still thinking about that finale ❤️

(Also, Crosshair 1000% uses his prosthetic hand to annoy Hunter and nothing else)

batchmates

Even when sick, Tech is the walking, talking encyclopedia and by the looks of it, he hit the nail on the head with his theory!
