This one's from when I was trying to figure out how to draw architects still.

Don't mind him, he's just being very supportive.

As the discussion under this post pointed out, it is now my headcanon that in the Subnautica universe, divergent evolution declared "T shaped head supremacy". Case in point, him:

I cannot unsee this resemblance

Maybe it's just the colours...?

Nerd-to-nerd communication

Something super pointless and self-indulgent I've had on the backburner for a while. I love trying to make the pieces they gave us fit together!

Al-AN and Robin would absolutely bond over learning about each other's biology. I could talk about this forever but I'll get into all of the headcanons I have for these two in another post eventually

Below the cut is another version with some extra bits and pieces and the transcription

Transcript :

Architect Anatomy A. Architect "Brain" - Doesn't "store" information so much as allow for easy communication with the network B. Brainstem - connects the information received to the central nervous/circulatory system C. "Heart" - Circulatory system pumps the bioluminescent fluid to other organ systems and surface veins. Each node connects to a vast vasculature network D. "Kidneys" - Organs that filter the bioluminescent "blood" and other bodily fluids, absorbing and distributing collected material E. Nerve Center - Receives raw sensory data and filters it. Filtering can be unconscious or intentional

F. "Respiratory" Tract - Intakes gases or liquids and filters out material for use. Disposes of waste on exhale. Provides cooling to internal systems

The respiratory tract functions less like a set of lungs and more akin to a computer's cooling system, with the ability to absorb material from the environment to use in other parts of the body. It also would likely help the architect's body analyze the environment it is currently exposed to on a molecular level. It is also truly unidirectional, with the intake vents near the "collarbone" and the exhaust vents on both sides of the abdomen

The architect organ cache in-game felt like it was definitely not a complete model of the internal organs, so I wanted to come up with something to fill some more space. I also just really liked the idea of Al-An being capable of something similar to breathing, without having a respiratory system in the traditional sense. Feel free to use any of this in your own headcanons if you would like :)

BONUS - a gif of all the layers!

i think realistically all the doomed vessels in subnautica probably had ship’s cats onboard but i can’t bring myself to set that in writing even in the saddest darkest horror fic

so either that tradition died off in the space future or all the cats coincidentally happened to stay home

when i say marguerit is bart's parental figure, i don't mean like she's his mother who feeds him soup. i mean she is his guardian/grizzled old mentor who teaches him to Kill People With Knives and understand how to be better than his dad out of pure spite and hatred of paul, and helps him experience the world, and he is in a state of awe and terror around her at all times

it's about marguerit learning to do things that aren't strictly for her own personal gain - it doesn't benefit her at all to have bart follow her around like a lost puppy (and can actively hinder her), but it feels good to have somebody look up to her and it makes bart happy to have a role model who isn't paul (😭😭😭). so what the hell, why shouldn't she let him? that's life. it's about marguerit learning to care about somebody when it's only ever been a hindrance or a source of pain. it's about marguerit growing as a person through bart, learning to respect 4546b and its creatures. it's a chance for her to reflect on her own complex feelings about parenthood, as somebody who grew up in a broken home and saw a lot of grieving parents as a merc. (caused a lot of grieving parents, too.)

and to a lesser extent it's also about bart being allowed to grow and fuck up and be his own person!! but it's mostly about marguerit. because i love her dearly, and she has so much to offer as a character
