yknow what i absolutely love about dghda? how socially unaware all the former blackwing subjects are. like these guys have no clue what to do in normal society and that absolutely makes sense
dirk is the most well adjusted out of all of the ones we know of and even he climbs into this random guy's apartment through the window, immediately calls him his assistant and then declares that he lives there now. he's clueless. he wants friends but he doesn't know how to talk to people, even after 16 years lived in freedom
and then there's bart and the rowdy 3
bart doesn't know how radios and tvs work, nor what hotels are. all she's known her whole life is blackwing labs and the fact that she's supposed to kill people. so that's what she does. she doesn't know how to talk to people, she just goes with the flow
and of course the rowdy 3, the absolute icons. unlike dirk, who wants to be a part of society, and bart, who really doesn't care, they actively reject social norms. they saw punk culture and ran with it. they're rude, violent and, well, rowdy. and they like that. but they're also stupid in the way that you would be if you grew up in a lab with (probably) next to no real education. none of them have any functioning braincells or social grace and that works for them
i didn't talk about mona or francis/moloch bc we don't really have a real frame of reference for either of them. mona is an inanimate object 99% of the time and francis has been in a coma for several decades

«Icarus is flying too close to the sun
And Icarus' life, it has only just begun
This is how it feels to take a fall
Icarus is flying towards an early grave.»

Another addition to the ever-growing Nasty Man Roster™. Adam's eldest son (thankfully not related to India or any of the other women he's bound to him), and the horrible, horrible older brother of Hotel, Iota, Seven and Omega. He loves to torment them, especially Hotel.
“If the phrase ‘like father, like son’ were a person, it would be Icarus in the worst way possible. The deranged right hand man to his equally vile father and progenitor, Icarus has been under strict training from Adam since the moment he could use his abilities, and with it has come a sense of power and control that has since festered into a sick sense of entitlement. Perverse, obsessive, possessive and violent, if Icarus’s ability to form barbed wire from his energy isn’t the most fitting power for him, then his ability to make you feel like he’s crawling inside your head is.”

IQRUS INTRODUCTION. GENRE: Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror, Grimdark. CONTENT: Collegues to Lovers, Science vs Belief, Bittersweet Romance, Brother vs Brother, Cult Activity, Brothers-in-Arms for Life, Otherworldly Terrors, Madness, Underwater Monsters, Bullshit Science. SETTING: A flooded, doomed planet named Aetherius, where thechnology advanced onto a cyberpunk level and people live in the sky. STATUS: Outlining / Zero Drafting SNIPPET MASTERPOST
SYNOPSIS
No-one can remember when did the water devoured the surface entirely. At first, people might have thought it was just a simple tide, a harmless natural phenomenon. Until the expected low tide did not come and the water level rose to heights that human race could no longer control. In order to survive, they began to build towards the sky, while after the first monster attacks, their technological advancements needed to speed up as well. Generations passed by since and humanity has reached its limits once again. Only this time, there’s no chance to stretch farther anyway. In a world like this, the almost middle-aged Adran strives to serve the people as a veteran member of the Deep Corps, whom duty is submerging into the mutagenetic water and searching for still eatable food stocks in long sunken places. His younger brother, Dane, doesn’t want to serve people, however. He wants to save them, by creating a world free of monsters, mutations and tides. This contrast in goals cannot ruin the two brother’s strong relationship so easily, but the terrors they find on their separated journeys might be capable of breaking bonds.
LOCATIONS - IMPORTANT ASPECTS
EVEROCEAN ― A mysteriously started phenomenon that resulted in flooding the entire world. People figured out early, if they touch the liquid, a strange mutation begins to change their body and slowly their mind as well. Soon after the first city had sunken, the severity of the situation increased, when grotesque looking monsters showed up in the water in sizes people have never seen before. Modern theories guesses this may be the reason why the first sufferers named the ever-rising water Everocean. Nowdays, many generations after the beginning of the flooding, both the phenomenon and the monsters are common things in aetherian life. RISING ― The tide that comes slowly and unpredictably. IONERA ― Main location. Many country took place here before the flooding. Now, they all merged together, so they can fit onto the Astin Tower's platforms and remain safe from the Everocean. These platforms serve as separetad sectors, where people live under various circumstances.
Tumblr media
DEEP CORPS ―A special organization which was founded by the Astin Corp. when the non-mutagenetic food supplies began to radically decrease. Most of the food is seafood, so they needed to develop a method to make it eatable and clean again. However, this project still hasn't been finished, therefore The Corp. collects volunteers year by year and train them to face what the Everocean has store for them, while they gather supplies from sunken cities. They also tasked to take samples and study what is underwater so every unit has at least one proficent scientist among them. ASTIN CORPORATION AND GOVERNMENT ―The savior of humanity. It's founder, Lero Astin was the first one to act, when the flooding came and with his innovative development in science and technology they could build the Astin Tower to shelter people from the water. He created a new system and helped people to adapt to it. He brought order into chaos. Since then, The Corp. became everything, including the leading facility.
CHARACTERS
ADRAN COHREN. A soldier, a brother, a believer. After their parent's early death, he manages to balance life between raising little Dane alone and finish his training to become the youngest member of the Deep Corps. Many years later, he still doesn't go on a misson without thanking the Almighty for giving him hope and strenght to continue working on a brighter future for the people of Ionera, but most importantly, for his little brother. pinterest | playlist DANE COHREN. A researcher, a soon-to-be delegate, a racionalist. While he is very grateful for his brother, he also dismisses his ideals of blind faith. He grew up to be a man of reason and it helps him achieve his goals; even if the most defining event of his life is something that cannot be reasoned. pinterest | playlist AUVA KNOX. An eccentric personality who will tasked to be Dane's supervisor and teacher, until he learns how the Caelus Sector and the Divum Council works. pinterest | playlist ERAN KODYN. One of Adran's brother-in-arms. A young member of the Deep Corps and a senior of Dane from university. Eran might not be the best fighter considering his much less training in combat, but he doesn't actually need to be, since he is the brain of their unit. He's close to Adran, and he might be the closest friend to Dane too. pinterest | playlist THADDEUS HOLTZ. Adran's another comrade. He is the muscle of the unit, but that doesn't mean he stays behind on an intellectual level. He's a father of two with a simple desire to live another day and make a better future for his kids. When Adran needs advice, Thaddeus is the one he goes to. pinterest | playlist ZEV. A trashmech who makes prosthetics from junk. While this "profession" is a common thing in the Aquor Sector (considering the high mutation rate), not much people are as good as Zev. He has a close relationship with the brothers since childhood, because he helped to make Dane's prosthetic too. pinterest | playlist ICHARO ASTIN. The direct descendant of Lero Astin. He's the current head of the Divum Council and the man that follows a strange aspect of the Astin family: never shows up in person, only in holographic form. He lives at the top of the Tower. pinterest | playlist

something they don’t tell you about being autistic is that every character you write WILL end up autistic/autistic-coded whether you like it or not

I see your over dramatic and needy Eddie and raise you this; Eddie who's been hyper independent since he was a kid and never had anyone to lean in for emotional support. Eddie who's clumsy in a relationship because he can absolutely give you attention when you ask for it, but has no idea how to ask for it himself.
Eddie, who you have to have a talk about emotional needs and that sometimes you'd like some attention without asking, and Eddie has no idea how to do that. He barely knows how attention works outside of being loud and playing music and telling stories.
Eddie doesn't know how to ask for attention like this. He doesn't even know what kind of attention he WANTS in a relationship.
He starts asking if you want him to hold your hand. He asks if you want to go out to get food. He asks you if you want to cuddle, or watch TV or do anything with him.
At first, you think it's him putting emotional labor on you. But then you realize what's going on; Eddie has been so severely emotionally neglected, this is his only way of asking for attention. He's so used to being told no, to being blown off, to having his needs ignored. Asking if YOU want to him to hold your hand is easier than asking to hold your hand and getting shot down.

Life or Death
Hey, people. I know I was pretty inactive recently (yet again) but that's what work does to you - tiredness becomes one of your constant companions. Nevertheless, once I saw a BlitzbeeWeek2023 announcement, I just knew that I had to participate in it because it's one of my favorite OTPs.
So, without further ado, this's my first work for the event! Like couple of other pictures along the road (ideally I plan to upload on a daily basis, haha), the scene you see here is taken from my fanfic called TFA: Icarus (or from my AU, so to speak). You can check the teaser and soon to be updates on a main work [here] if you feel like it. An image of this interaction was born in my head a while ago, but I thought that uploading it now would be a more productive thing to do prior I change my mind and let it rot in my sketches folder XD.
All in all, thank you, admin of @blitzbee-week, for making this event, I hope to see plenty of other mutual fans of this ship gathering this week to show our love for Blitzwing and Bumblebee.

Happy Blorbo Blursday! You asked me about one of my ships, so tell me about one of yours! What is one of your favorite WIP ships? How did they meet? How do others see them?
It took me a little while, but here it is. Thanks for this question! <3
One of my fav is probably Dane Cohren x Auva Knox in IQRUS.
Tiny worldbuilding detail for better understanding. Water flooded the world a long time ago, and since then the water level is constantly increasing. People live on platforms that attached to one gigantic tower that can transfer these platforms higher, when a flooding comes again. It’s necessery because monsters appeared in it and touching the liquid results in mutation. Not necessarily major mutation, but their skin becomes slimy, or scaly, or membrane sarts to grow between their fingers etc. Lovecraftian deep water creature mutation you know. Depends on how much time the person spent touching the water. So, the lowest plaform (they call these sectors) is basically in constant danger and most of his people got some mutation from previous flooding, when the trasfer of the platform was too slow or something. The population drastically decreased, and the highest platform almost reached the top of the tower, so very soon, there’s gonna be nowhere to go.
Dane is one of the main characters, who freshly got his PhD, and is applying to be the representative of his and the lowest sector in the Divum Council. Auva will be his supervisor, and kind of his partner in their department. They both want to solve this water problem and raise some awerness in the highest sector, so they can change the lower sector’s life into a better one and, well, keep life up at all. Their start is pretty good, because they have the same goal and they try to achive that in the best possible way. They’re great at working together. But, as they begin to getting to know each other, they realize how much they differ and everything gets a little bumpy. Dane is a very down-to-earth person with a lot of emotional baggage and trauma. He likes to focus on his goal, and he’s a man of science and logic. Unlike him, Auva is a very open-minden personality with the itch to understand human nature, so she’s more focused on people. She also loves to question Dane’s stubborn resentment towards belief. They’re debating constantly, but never argue actually. Which is an important aspect, because Dane talks about these stuff only with his brother and it never ends peacfully from his side. They also always question each other, keeping the other one checked on the right motivation, morals and everything.
Oh and she also has an aspect that messes with Dane’s morals, ideals, his head in general, but that is a huge spoiler (but I mentioned in one wbw already I think lol), so I’ll just leave here under a cut.
How do other’s see them is a veeery good question and I really love it! Most of the people see them as two equally competent person who can work together efficently. But those who know Dane will think it’s weird how long Auva can stay by his side without either a rejection or getting frustrated by his comments on scientific stuff and straight up just quit. Those who know Auva will be only very interested in Dane, beacuse they will see the changes on Auva – this one’s explanation is under the cut too!
She’s not human. She is literally a kind of “higher” being, but not a god. So, how she percieves the world is very different than any other character’s and actually that’s why she is that interested in human nature. Also this is one of the reason why she and Dane works. She geniuenly wants to understand Dane, and by questioning a lot of things, she forces him to think outside his bubble. In the end, they kind of help each other become more human, I guess.
And those who know Auva are similar beings too, so they are fascinated or threatend by Dane. But they collectively amazed, how more human Auva gets to act by getting close to him, so they just stand around him and basically start to study him, when she introduces him. They throw some random questions at him, try to figure out how his influence works etc.
