Hey! I just recently found this au of yours, and I have fallen in LOVE! Instantly. Still Wakes the Deep is my favorite game, and this concept and your art are just incredible! It was made for me!
Now, I've got a lot of backlog to catch up on. You post a lot for this, which is great! The most content of any au I have come across AND is still ongoing! I was going to wait until I was caught up to the present, but I'm impatient. With this in mind, I may be way way outdated with the state of things.
I'm not sure if you're still accepting ocs, but if not, consider this fanart instead, since that's essentially what it is. Your au inspired me to create again after a months long rut. I made a Still Wakes the Deep oc and even dared to mutate him! I'm really proud of how it came out, especially considering that I have never done gore or body horror before. So, thank you. Really, truely, thank you♥︎
Now, I won't super info-dump about him because nobody asked for that, even though I could talk about him endlessly. BUT! The general information is that he's young, probably one of - if not the - youngest, on deck, being only 20 years old. He's coming from college he dropped out of because his family couldn't afford it and needed money badly. He was studying to become a structural engineer. That said, since he's new and young when he gets to the Beira D., he's just a simple roustabout, but he can still see all of the problems that get ignored and troubleshooted and cannibalized, he just can't do anyhting about it. He tries to tell people, but they're either resigned to it or mock him for being too sensitive. This is why, instead of pleading to be helped like other mutants, he begs to help.
I also took a crack at fixing him. If you do take interest in this oc, you can make your own design or just use this one!
(the second sketch is with Kemball, idk how he's doing now, but where I'm at he's really depressed and needs a good hug =< )
That's all I have to say, I hope you have a great day and continue making art, however that looks in the future!
Hello! This took me some time to answer sorry I am extremely flattered you like my AU so much ! Still Wakes the Deep is very dear to me and I'm happy to see more people getting into it!
For restoration, there is a video on my YouTube channel that gives a very vague idea of the whole story in the perspective of the staff of the facility if that interests you! Other than that I'm still working on it and hope to remake/continue the comics in the future!
Now Ewan is ADORABLE I love the idea you have of him wanting to help people!
Infected Xanthe is pretty similar but since I haven't reached very far in writing that part of the story i haven't posted much about them being infected
Ewan is so young awww he should be friends with Scoob , Scoob is 18 cannonly iirc!
I DID want to try fixing him myself. You were very sweet so here's a drawing of how I think Xanthe would fix Ewan!
Lots of notes for him hopefully my writing is readable
Also that drawing of Ewan and Kemble is VERY cute. Kemble belongs to the wonderful Untitled! @unnoticedunawarestillhere
Look your boy has been drawn
