PELASE yout thouts omg

i had a brief idea of this cus it sounds quite collected and calm like Al-An, btu Al is a millenia old scientist of an ascended alien race while this dude is a corporate golem with nothing but its purpose in mind. Even if just an AU idea i am curiosu what NoA being an Architect would mean for the plot/just how powerful Alterra has become with either a dubious ally or another indentured slave (e.g they found another Architect ina cube and somehow brainwashed it to htink it was made to work for them so it can give them all their knowledge)

Subnautica 2 ramblings :SPOILERS AHEAD🚨🚨🚨

The manic one who's always trying to amputate a limb or eat something they shouldn't and thinks they'll all definitely die from becoming eventually cannibals when there is food fucking everywhere. May or may not have asked questions leading Fl-is to suspect they considered if his species would make a sustainable food source. Hoards water in bottles. Because fuck it everything tastes better with micro plastics. But vary nice.

The compulsive/dopamine deficient insomniac. Who is always awake, always infectiously anxious and always makes everyone else anxious because they are sometimes smart and sound reasonable when they claim they witnessed a reaper Leviathan head peering out of the toilet..spontantiously does reckless unpredictable shit assuming they have plot armour they definitely do not. and like to cry about long past pets in the middle of the

The sensitive, reasonable dumbass with too much empathy and no survival instincts or brains...but 280% plot armor, disney princess if they were a 5"11 bald trans man covered in tattoos and piercings. Sometimes says weirdly on the point crap but immediatly assums their just being an idiot And disregards critial revelations.

and they all work with Allterra's new world cultivation project, and they've discovered a perfect water dominant planet..except they don't realize this specific planet houses a hidden precursor seed garden. And its warden isn't pleased in the least at their presence there.

But having researched humans using outdated media instead intended for enjoyment the poor thing is convinced they will kill him 80s slasher/doom guy style and destroy the hidden sanctuary he's guarding. And so he just kind of tries to nudge them to kill themselves but they all have too much survival trauma because they read Ryley autobiography and use it like a Bible lmfao.

ur the first person i rmembered about subnautica stuff and I was wonderif igf ur gonna engage with the E.A. version at all :>

hullo c:

So:

1. What (if anything) are you currently writing that you are most excited about right now? (Can be anything!) what about it is fueling your creative spark? if you aren’t currently writing something, it can also be something you’re reading!

2. What was your favorite part of a Splash Across A Pale Sky (so far) that you’ve written? What part was the most fun to write? (Answer Can be the same for both!)

3. I love your original characters. They are absolutely fascinating, and viscerally beautiful. What is your inspiration/creative process? Because It’s been weeks, and the things you made me feel about Raahs still confuse me. /positive

4. Bonus! what’s your favorite part of being in any of the online communities you’re in? this question is very open ended on purpose, interpret it as you’d like and answer in a way that brings you the most joy!

I’ll stop there for now cause I’m the type of person who could ask someone questions all day and still be excited to ask more, but feel free to answer as many or few as you like! :3

Hehe thankies forthe questions! :D

A: I probably have a good 60+ wips in my wip folder executive dysfunction is my baby girl (and i don't want them), i have little free time so everything takes forever lol but I have been working to push out a oneshot based off one of my enemy mine au drabble! The next chapter of planet Marighettis and a update for an amongus fic! I am excited for the next chapter for Marighettis! Everything goes wrong fir everyone! :D

B: I have many favorite scenes! From the flooding research post they found the three little lights in, to Al-an hurling Robin into the water, to his coffee high, the Lead chase through the woods! It was all so exciting! And so was Ryley's encounter with the rampent Elisskat! And Robin's confrontation with the Sentinel Leviathan/Omni pera/pineapple to emphis admission that she had indeed blindly attacked Ryley! Bleeeerrgh i can't decide! Heh this series is filled with indulgent scenes!

C: Im very iffy about adding Ocs to fics based around canon character, its why i don't do it often, I mulled over Raahs for a long time! Im glad some like her the matriarch is one of my favorite ocs ( you've read) that we get to meet, i wanted something tarnished but not evil to help bleed out the gravity of human's blind empathy compared to precursor cold practical empathy.

Its tragic that much of Raahs's story doesn't have a place in this fic, but the mistakes that lead to this catastrophic ripple effect are clear enough. So it'll have to do!

Also who doesn't love pineapple! :D

D: most communities i tend to kind of a lurk and tend to float about, except for the sbz fandom, its always great seeing some poor soul sink into the fandom with us! Heheh

I love hearing about ocs and seeing folks fan characters! Seeing folks headcanons and drabbles! Its great all around uwu…of yeah and getting jumpscared by pregnant Ryley on my dash iykyk

(sorry my dumbass clicked unfollow instead of ask)

I think I've seen some neat reverse au ideas floating around and i think there is a actually a fic or two about it being the other way around one ao3!

Id definitly check em out!

As for me i have considered it before tho id still have Al-an an architect and Robin a human lol hear me out.

Like the precursors were successful in curing khaara but not before the bacteria managed to make it to sol's solar system, that being the case it was discovered by Alterra and brought back to earth in hopes of weaponized.

This of course was a complete mistake, as they could not control it and the bacteria predictably goes apeshit, infecting everything on earth.

Over the years many attempts to combat the bacterium fails and pretty much all is doomed when the last attempt at a vaccine fails.

Amidst this Sam a scientist once attempted to make a cure but her efforts were in vain, then turned her sights to another frontier, instead turning her talents to creating a way for man to outlive the virus by attempting to flee into stasis, new and a unstable technology but inarguably their last hope.

Yet due to the unauthorized use of materials and lack of time and general lack of support from her peers past her sibling, her creation mostly successful efforts goe unappreaciated and noticed by the wrong person.

Sam contracts khaara, infected by a jealous scientist who planned on stealing credit for her work. Buuuut before dying she managed to trick Robin into a stasis machine hidden in the lab.

Freezing her mind and body in a unstable but lucid like sleep within a cryopod

After it is implied Sam's work was stolen and the fualty prototype rebranded but as a cheap faulty series as they never fully understood Sams backwards blueprints and never discovered the self sufficient staisis machine.

This of course leads to humanity's extinction, the stasis machine failing.

Loooong time later precursors are asigned to Sol to clean up the pieces left behind by the bacteria, when Al-an comes to earth he finds a barren and alien planet, stuggling to recover, khaara has died out mostly but decontamination efforts were still required which is what lands a curious Al-an to explore the ruins of the long extinct species.

Noticing a odd energy pulse he diverges from his intended duties and tracks the tether until he ends up discovering the faulty stasis cryopad in a long destroyed laboratory.

And Robin still dreaming in the pod, but like her bodies heavily damaged from khaara and time breaching the tank.

Of course his reckless curiosity leads him to accidentally disrupting the power/breaking the tank by accident, and realizes the human's body starts rapidly deteriorating.

Without though shrimp boy ends up using alien technology to yank her mind into the his vessel with him.

Unaware that the disgruntled researcher was very much awake and very displeased, as for her one moment she was watching her dying sister scramble to hide blueprints, alterra agents tearing apart her lab, then a alien abducting her!.

In general i like to think Robin would be the one with the pessimistic outlook and internalized trauma, Al-an would likely be vary unprepared to deal with the boarderline suicidal and cynical head voice..

I like to think it would be a nice hurt comfort fic, with alot of inner healing and not only coming to terms with how ugly the world could be event at the end of it! But also learning to retrust people after the betrayal that murdered her sister!

I also want to note while the option to give Robin a body is plausible Al-An outright refuses until long later to offer her one as she has shown signs that she may be a danger to he's self.

Sadly they collided with our power line now BG&E shut the electricity off while they get get it out. ;_;
