Okay, so that lastbpic of Eclipse with the eels gave me some Ursula vibes. Is his personality the same as the previous incarnation of Siren Eclipse? Or is he at least a little friendlier? (To your face, at least lol)
talkin' 'bout this post
Saving Tides is a completely new and separate siren au from when i drew the vampiric equinox boys as sirens
so this Siren Eclipse is his own eclipse, not linked to VampireSiren Eclipse in any way owo

I just wanted to say that your stuff, especially your art, is so cute and well detailed. It genuinely blows me away whenever I see your work. Thank you for what you for and keep up the good work
Thank youu!! That's so sweet of you to say!! >w< <3 <3
Even when I'm trying to make just quick things so I know they're messy and could probably be better most of the time OTZ but it's so very lovely to hear this! <3 <3
You've made me on happy Bear! Thank you very much! <3
Here's an interesting question for your Magician AU: How do the boys have their magic in the first place? Are some people just born with it, or were they made by a magician, or did they obtain it, or what?
ALRIGHT.
i know its been... ages. sorry about that.
i originally had some steapunk-ish magical worldbuilding ideas, but it also had weird mafia themes because i was in my Sleuth Jesters Era then. so we scrapped that.
HOWEVER. i can still answer this one!!! answer under the readmore :D
basically, everything living has the "potential" to do magic. it's a part of life - to live, you have a magical core. period. however, MOST people can't access this core. sometimes they can, but only subconsciously. this might manifest as someone with a green thumb, who is just weirdly good with plants. or maybe they have an affinity for animals. or perhaps their cooking is spectacular! little things. (this doesn't mean every talent or skill someone has is a latent magical ability, just that it has been known to manifest. you can be a great cook and have a completely dormant magical core.
now, some beings have either a stronger magical core, or maybe just get lucky and have something that kicks it into gear, making it "active" rather than "dormant." these people can perform magic! lots of different types! illusions, scrying, elemental affinities, manipulating the laws of space and time and all that jazz! they can also get really really good at party tricks lmao.
maybe some of them are even craftspeople - those with active cores that can imbue inanimate objects with magic. :)
so, that's how it is with humans. speaking of imbuing inanimate objects with magic - and therefore life - animatronics.
so here's the deal - magic runs through everything. one of the most common natural sources of magic comes from leylines, shifting currents of magic that travel across the planet. (someone feel free to correct me if im doing leylines a disservice by dropping them in here, im just going with a generic "fantasy novel" definition.)
as it turns out, highly advanced animatronics with incredibly powerful learning AI's and personality chips are what one might call "susceptible" to natural magic, and leylines. Fazbear Entertainment flew a little too close to the sun on this one - eventually their creations became so advanced that, to magic, they appeared as a perfect vessel to fill with life.
Magic saw Freddy Fazbear and said "is anybody gonna turn this thing into a fantastic dad and sentient being?" and then didn't wait for an answer.
Once the magical community REALIZED what had happened - that magic had taken the next "evolutionary step," of sorts, the magical community had no choice but to fight for the rights of what they KNEW were living, thinking, feeling beings.
Since I'm no longer taking the "steampunkish" vibes for the magician AU, I'm going this route instead - it's the regular old modern world, BUT. Animatronics have been found sentient and given rights. It just so happens that, in the context of the Magician!au, Sun and Moon (and Eclipse) found magic to be really, REALLY fun. They chose a career that would let them utilize it in plain sight, and still have tons of interaction with people - Magicians!
Important context is that the magical community is very much hidden from the mundane one. Technically, all animatronics are actually witches, just like humans who have active magical cores. Sun, Moon, and Eclipse can get away with using their magic in front of mundanes because of the job they chose! :D
Part of the reason it was so easy to convince the magical community to fight for animatronic rights was because magic doesn't just bring anything vaguely human shaped to life. If it did, there wouldn't be a need for necromancers - the planet's natural magic would be raising the dead left and right. No, it was that animatronics met all the criteria magic needed to consider something "alive," and so it just. Took the final step. :)
AN IMPORTANT SIDE EFFECT OF THIS, HOWEVER - due to the nature of animatronics technically being more akin to "constructs" than a naturally "born" creature, they have inherent access to their magic. ALL animatronics can perform magic. Which was the OTHER reason the council and magical community fought so hard for their rights - they had to get these guys some kind of TRAINING before they exposed the entire magical community to the planet.
I hope that covers everything!!! Thanks for the ask!!!! <3

2: I read your Halloween story. Will there be more of it at some point?
3: Your Halloween thing inspired me. Can I maybe describe this silly idea I have based off it?
4: Curious question, but what would've happened if Witch Y/N was a child?
5: Other curious question (based a wee bit on my idea), would Witch Y/N adopt a child/apprentice? How would Sun and Moon (possibly Eclipse) react to them?
Thank you! ♥
I have some ideas to expand it, however, my plate is too full at the moment writing-wise, so it's a soft maybe for the future!
Yes!
I think roughly the same events would unfold, however, Sun and Moon would be parental over a child y/n witch.
I don't see why not! That would be a fun what-if scenario for a witch y/n and their familiars! Sun and Moon would be delighted with a kid, whether as guardian familiars or playful cats entertaining a little one (while teaching them to not pull tails or grab fur). Eclipse would be... amused, but he would be gentle and sweet, a bit more troublesome but he wouldn't let any harm fall upon Y/N's child/apprentice.
Question for your Cryptid AU, do Sun and Moon still hold that need to protect children like in the rest of the fandom? How is their behavior to kids different from their behavior towards teenagers or adults?
They love kids and would never harm one. Even if the parents treat the woods wrong. The youngs are innocent and always have potential to grow up to become better people.
They'll probably still give the adults a terrible scare to get them to leave the forest. In a few cases killed a few wrongdoing adults in the group if they were bad enough, but not enough that the kids would be left on their own with no guardians to leave with. Still a horror AU. Breaking the rules are paid in blood.
A child lost in the woods will find no danger fall upon them, they'll be kept safe and helped to find their way back to their family or nearest civilization. Some even return with stories of a friendly creature ensuring they had food and shelter depending on how long they would be stuck out in the wild.
Can I ask something about Song of a Siren? The songs that Sun and Moon sing. Are they like real melodies or are they more akin to whale songs and dolphin noises?
I am ALWAYS happy to talk about SfaS I put so much thought into that story that’s behind the scenes/my own musings fksvaksv.
If you’re referring to their songs that forged the bond with YN, it sounds different to YN vs someone who happens to walk by. The passerby might hear something akin to a whale song, but to YN they’re hearing a voice similar to what Else hears in the second Frozen movie.
Most importantly, though, is the songs aren’t so much words but feelings. It represents that special connection, allowing those feelings to pass on to YN, both emotionally and (when strong enough) physically.
