Sundrop and Moondrop AU
A Death Family Tangled AU that I have honestly been thinking about for months and even wrote about on my Twitter. I finally have a concise story plan and I can’t wait to start sharing more :)
Phil -> Sundrop, the pure essence of the Sun. He’s born with the powers of healing and light. He’s also a threat to the powers of the Moon and thus when he’s a kid is sent out to be killed. He barely escapes with his life.
Missa -> Moondrop, the pure essence of the moon. He has the powers of darkness and destruction. Missa grows up being used by those around him, a tool to aid them in their growth for power.
Tallulah -> She is rescued and saved by Phil after an incident with the powers of the Moon. She’s struck by the Moon and her hair turns black. Phil is able to heal her with his powers.
Chayanne -> Chayanne is special. For the first time in centuries we have someone who holds the pure essence of both the Sun and Moon. When he was just a baby, Phil and Missa gave a part of themselves up to save his life. It caused both of them to lose their powers but ended up giving Chayanne a piece of the Sun and Moon.
The main story and plot follows Chayanne and Tallulah. But I do have a prequel purely based on Phil and Missa and how they ended up meeting. I might end up sharing that full story so watch out for that one. For now this is just the introduction :D !!

A little excerpt from my Sundrop and Moondrop AU :)
-
Chayanne and Tallulah
-
When Tallulah wakes up it is late at night and Chayanne is gone. Her face feels icky from all the crying and the last thing she wants to do is get out of bed. She looks over to Chayanne’s side of the room and finds his bed empty, which is odd at this late at night. The moon is just above their window shining a light glow into their room. Everything feels cold tonight, more so than usual.
Sometimes it feels like the world is laughing at Tallulah, seeing what it can take from her next. She’s young still, and it feels like people keep coming in and out of her life more often than she can remember. She’s been abandoned again and again, left to rot alone in countless orphanages and attics. No matter what she does, or how nice she acts, no one stays. Soon everyone gets tired of her, they send her to the next home or throw her out into the streets to die. It was a miracle the emperors wanted her.
Tallulah was found one breath away from death. She doesn’t remember much, but she remembers a man with blonde hair and giant wings holding her. She remembers a long journey in which she spent the majority of the time sleeping. She also remembers a little boy with bright blue eyes and blonde hair. He wouldn’t leave her side, even took it upon himself to hold her throughout the journey. But the one thing she will never forget is his eyes.
When Tallulah first met Chayanne she swears his eyes glowed. They called to her, mesmerized her in a way nothing else ever has. She was only 6 when she met him. Phil and Missa say that for the longest time, they couldn’t get her to stop crying, but Chayanne could, he always could. Tallulah distinctly remembers it was the eyes, something about them calmed her down.
She thinks maybe it was her just imagining things, maybe some trick of the light. Either way, bright blue eyes or not, Chayanne’s ability to calm her down has remained. Through every nightmare and bad dream, he’s always been there. Every scrap and every bruise. Even when she’s gotten into trouble and grounded, Chayanne would always be the one to sneak her in cookies or treats she was banned from having.
He knows her, knows her better than anyone else ever has. And just as he knows her, she knows him too.
Cautiously she makes her way out of their chambers. This part of the castle seems quiet tonight, even with the extra guards she can see down the hall. No one else seems to be asleep, probably trying to figure out where apa Missa went. Quietly she sneaks down the hall and around the corner to the doors of her parent's bedroom. She opens the doors and surely enough, there is Chayanne.
He is wrapped up in the blankets, lying on apa Missa’s side of the bed. She makes her way around to his side, closer, she can see him clutching tightly onto his duck plushie.
The moon's light is perfectly situated on his face. Tallulah swears she can see bright yellow and blue specks in his eyes. But under the light, she can also see faint marks of dry tears down his cheeks. She feels her heart shatter.
Tallulah thinks the world has been incredibly unfair to her. Time and time again she’s been abandoned, left to rot by her parents who believed her to be a curse. She believed she could be happy here, she believed she had parents that would stay. But the world was unkind and decided to take one of them away from her. And yet through it all, there’s been one person who has stuck by her side, one person who hasn’t left her. For the first time, Tallulah has someone to cry with. She has someone to hold her and dry her tears. It hurts, but at least she’s not alone.
Tallulah makes her way around the bed onto papa Phil’s side. He must still be awake, trying to find out what happened to his husband, her other dad. She climbs into the blanket and gives Chayanne a tight squeeze.
Into the moonlight, she whispers, “I’m here for you too.”

Sundrop and Moondrop AU
(something I randomly thought of at 1 am)
Phil and Tallulah
Tallulah refused to turn around, “I didn’t think you’d come looking.”
It felt like a punch to the gut. Something ugly twisted in Phil, how could she ever think that? He might not have known her for long, but Tallulah had already changed his life for the better. He would always come running.
Softly he questioned her, “Why?”
“No one ever does.”
And that’s when everything slowly clicked in place for him. How many times has she done this? How many times has she been abandoned? Phil couldn’t process who in the world could ever leave a little girl behind like that. It makes him think back to how he found her, he thought she had just lost her parents, but it seems like she never had anybody to begin with. It’s why she has been so cold, so distant. Her wary smiles, her hesitant hugs, the way she would stare at them as if she was already mourning them.
He hears a sniffle.
“It’s okay, thanks for worrying about me. You have been the nicest out of all of them.” And he has, Tallulah thinks Phil and his family are wonderful. Missa was so kind, and she hopes one day she can find Chayanne again. It would’ve been nice to stay she thinks.
Instead, Tallulah begins walking away.
Quickly Phil interrupts, “I didn’t keep my promise.”
She stops, and glances back perplexed.
“I promised to take you fishing in the Goddesses Lagoon, let me fulfill that promise, then you can decide if you want to leave.” Give us a chance, give me a chance, and then you can decide.
Tallulah stares at Phil’s outstretched hand.
She’s terrified.
Can she really walk away? Can she really trust this? She doesn’t want to be heartbroken again. It is easier to go back to what she knows, to go back to what she is used to. It will hurt less once they decide to get rid of her. And yet here Phil is standing out in the cold rain in the middle of nowhere asking her to stay. He came out all this way, just for her.
He did promise to show her the lagoon one day, and you can’t break a promise.
“Okay, but just for a bit.” I’ll give you a chance.
