(Kinda follows/is inspired by the “What If Solar Was Revived?” Episode/simulation where Bloodmoon's code was used to bring Solar back and what would have happened) (also SPOILERS IF ITS NEEDED!)

It first happened when Moon was out getting more blood for Solar. He was home with Drizzle and Sun, and they were in the back yard talking. But Solar wasn't really listening to Sun, instead staring out over the ocean surrounding their island for miles in every direction. And he was thinking. Well more like listening to something whispering in his mind, repeated calls and begs for blood, bloodshed, run the sea Crimson with all the blood it can hold. He shook his head clear, but soon another thought came to mind. He knew Moon was getting him some more, but…well the craving never really went away for too long. He didn't think he could wait for much longer…his gaze slid to Sun beside him, watching him go on and on about the daycare kids and those stupid foam barrels they couldn't just toss out already. The whispering in his head grew louder, the craving throughout his body growing until he felt the urge to pounce in every circuit, wire and joint he had. He ran his tongue over his aching fangs in his mouth. Then he spoke. “I hope he gets back soon…I'm starting to feel a bit hungry already…” he caught the way Sun flinched ever so slightly, no doubt a nervous or paranoid habit he's developed. Not surprising given all he's been through so far. “Are you? Well…m-maybe I can fix you something real quick? A snack until he gets back?” Sun suggested, the shakey, uncertain lilt of his voice a little more obvious. Solar didn't speak for another moment, eyes glued to Sun, and following his face down to his neck. He started thinking, “that ruffle would do a good job hiding the bite mark. And it shouldn't be too hard to make him forget it happened…” “No. This craving can't be satisfied by normal food…probably make me sick more than likely. No…I want something fresher. Richer. Livelier…” He stepped closer to Sun with each word, which made him step back each time. The nervous look and tone of his voice grew as Solar drew closer, fixing Sun with a gaze all too familiar, yet all too strange. And very unsettling, like he was staring through his body. Sun swallowed hard, trying to keep himself calm and remind himself that this was his friend. He wouldn't hurt him, right? Right…? “What do uh…what do you mean, uh Solar…?” He asked, but got no response. Solar's eyes were now intensely fixed on his neck, staring wide eyed and oh so hungry, a gaze he's only seen a few unfortunate times before. “Solar…why are you looking at me like that?”

When Moon returned, he called out to let them know he was home, but no one answered. At first he thought everyone must be asleep, thinking so as he put the blood bags in the fridge. But as he stepped towards the back room the dying sunlight glinted off of something outside. Turning, he saw Sun laying on the ground motionless. Moon hurried outside to him, noticing the pooling blood beneath him. He dropped to his knees next to him, worry then panic filling his voice as he tried to wake him up, but nothing worked. “Sun! Sun come on this isn't funny, wake up…! Damn it Sun get your ass up now…! Please…I just got Solar back, I can't lose you too already…” his voice quickly went from terrified yelling to tearful begging as he held his brother's body close. After a few minutes a thought came to him and he set his body down, rushing through the rest of the house looking for Solar and Drizzle, but he didn't find any sign of them in the house. But whatever had been through here had gotten Sun's cats too. And whatever it was had possibly had Drizzle and Solar. As he rushed out the house and threw a portal to the pizzaplex down he called up Lunar first, a sigh of relief leaving him when he answered. “Yeah? Moon, what's up?” came the sleepy voice- he must have been napping. “Sun's dead. Whatever got him might have Solar and Drizzle too. Get Earth and both of you get to Monty's place and stay with him. Don't tell them about Sun, not until I know Solar and Drizzle are-” He stopped at the door to the Parts and Service, staring down at the ground. “I gotta go. Take Earth, go to Monty, stay there, keep quiet about Sun until I say so.” He hung up, his voice and hands shaky as he leaned down and plucked up Drizzle's little hand fan. She didn't use it much, just kept it for the aesthetic. But she used it enough for him to know it was hers. There was also a small trail of dripping blood leading into the room. He almost hesitated until he heard a crunch and a short, slightly muffled scream and he rushed inside, bursting through the doors. It was dark, but he could just barely make something out in one of the darker corners. Whatever it was heard him, and dropped what it was eating. He wished he hadn't interrupted. Whatever it was dropped Drizzle's body, blood pouring from a huge wound in her neck, very similar to the one Sun had. Maybe this was the thing that killed him. And he wished he had been wrong about that too. Because the thing that turned to him, eyes bright, blood red and piercing, the only other thing visible in the darkness besides a set of huge, blood-dripped, sharp fangs, lining one another like a shark, was-

“Solar…?” Moon stood there at the door, eyes wide and his voice, his whole body shaking. Solar stood from his spot, towering above Drizzle, and turned to Moon, a strange effect in his voice, almost like multiple people were talking at once. “I'm sorry…I was so hungry…I couldn't wait anymore…I needed something now…” “So you killed them?!” Moon, now having found his voice again, noted the change in his voice, but that was the last thing he was worried about right now. “I'm sorry Moon,” he said again, though like the first time he didn't sound sorry in the least. “But I was so hungry, the craving got too irresistible. But…they were so good~” Solar licked his bloodied lips as he walked closer to Moon. “And they were so beautiful, thick, luscious red streaming from their half-eaten corpses and dripping all over. Oh and their screams~ that might have been just as good as the blood~ they both cried for you, begged and screamed for you to help them. But where were you? Why didn't you save them, Moon?” He taunted him now, laughing quietly, then quickly cackling like a madman. Moon growled, pushing aside his own emotions at the moment to grab a wrench and swung at him. This wasn't Solar. Not anymore. Maybe it never was. But right now it was just another Bloodmoon. Bloodmoon mixed with an Eclipse, a horrible combination already. Solar stepped back, laughing again. “You missed~ I always wondered what they tasted like. I wonder how Earth or Lunar will taste? Or the gator? I think I want to find out~” he quickly struck Moon, hard enough to make him stagger, giving Solar enough time to run through one of the doors and escape through the vents. Moon swore and started for the door but stopped and looked back, swallowing his tears as he went to Drizzle and closed her eyes, placing her in a more dignified position. “I'm sorry…” he muttered before he ran off again, this time calling Puppet. “What's going on?” “I don't know if you can see anything right now but Sun and Drizzle are dead, Solar killed them, and I think he's going for Earth, Lunar and Monty next. He Blinded me and got away from Parts and Service, I need you to get eyes on him or something, fast!” He stopped in the lobby and placed another portal to Monty's house. Puppet's voice came through again. “He's at the house! Hurry up before he gets away again!” Puppet urged him, though Moon didn't need it. The adrenaline fueled panick for his family was more than enough.

When he arrived at the house the door was open. He already didn't like that. He entered slowly, just in case he was jumped. He kept quiet so as not to alert Solar he was there, but he did faint sounds of crackling electricity. He approached the sound, already preparing himself for the worst. Unfortunately he found it, unable to stop himself from dropping to his knees in the door way. They were all dead. Lunar and Earth were huddled together, small currents of electricity running along Lunars body and some across Earth's. Like Sun and Drizzle they also had the neck wounds. Same with Monty, who was laid out in front of them. “Moon? Moon are you there?” Puppet's voice came through the phone but he didn't answer, couldn't find his voice as tears began to fall to the ground as Moon leaned down, hands on his head as he began to sob. He had lost his entire family and his best friend. No, he lost Solar the day Ruin killed him. What he had now was nothing more than a bloodthirsty imitation. That wasn't his family anymore. After a few minutes of heartbroken sobbing he got himself together enough to call Puppet back, asking her to come to Monty's house and warning her they were all dead. There was a long pause on the other end, and he was almost worried Solar had gotten her too, until he heard faint crying. Not surprising, she and Monty were fairly close too. Soon enough the crying stopped. “Alright. I'll be over there in a few minutes.” She hung up and Moon was left to wait, sitting against a wall on the opposite side of the room facing away from them, waiting. He had taken some time to at least put them all together, tried to make it at least seem more peaceful and easier for Puppet to handle.

“Where are they at?” He looked up, seeing Puppet standing over him. He gestured to the room behind him. “I tried to…clean it up a little? Never been good at that…tried to give them a little dignity than what he left them with…” he muttered. Puppet just rubbed his head and went into the room. He heard her gasp and what sounded like choking back tears. She left the room as quickly as she went in, standing with her back to Moon for a moment as she took deep breaths to keep herself under control. “What happened.” She asked. Moon didn't answer right away. Puppet whirled around, staring down at Moon. “Answer me, what the hell happened with them?” “I don't know! But…I think it might be some issue with Bloodmoon's code in Solar's body. I haven't been able to look into that yet, but it seemed fine when I first tested it. On false, study code, and not with Bloodmoon obviously. But it always worked, stayed the same. And he was fine for a while, save a migraine or two, and then eventually the blood cravings came…he was doing just fine with the blood bags, until today…” Moon sighed, hugging his knees to his chest. “I wanted him back so bad…and instead I lost everything…” Puppet sighed, sitting down next to him. “I know…I wanted him back too,” she leaned her head back. “But no matter what we'll find him, understand? We'll find him and…well I don't think we can fix him.” Moon looked at her. “You can't seriously be suggesting-” “I am. You used Bloodmon's code. And he's already killed Five people, maybe more between them. Do you want him to go off killing more? Do you want to deal with Bloodmoon again?” Puppet asked, looking at Moon but knowing what his answer would be regardless. “No, I don't…” “I'll find him, Moon. And as soon as I do we're going to him and we're putting an end to this before it can become another problem.” She said with a hand on his shoulder. Moon sighed and closed his eyes. “Yeah. They deserve that much at least…I can't believe I left him…I couldn't…I wasn't fast enough to save them…” Moon said as he buried his face in his knees again. “Yeah but…you couldnt have known this would happen, Moon.” He simply nodded, leaning more into Puppet for comfort. And Puppet let him, lightly rubbing the top of his head to try and help comfort him. Once they put them all to rest they'd start hunting down Solar and put an end to him for good.

What if Solar had gone with Nexus...?

Made another thing to go with the Corrupted Solar, Wither Shard Infected Sun! The marks and coloration of his eye are on the right since that's the side he uses the most for his powers. The color is purple but for some reason the camera makes it look black :/

Another character for the Twisted Brotherhood AU, Eclipse Aka Blackout. Eclipses' role isn't a Canon one, instead this as well as Earth and Lunars' are simply concepts I wanted to do. So with that said, Earth and Lunar will be next and probably the last I make a TB design for. Eclipse has the most marks due to his previous usage of the Star. I also used a bit of info from a previous LAES episode where Lunar and Gemini have a talk about stuff and they mention nsp can mutate the user. Hence tailed, horned and hooved Eclipse

Real quick, sorry for the late reaction to the poll. I believe Twisted Brotherhood had the most votes so I am going to work on getting everything for that sorted and hopefully soon I can drop some more general or in depth details about the au. I have a few things worked out already though, and if anything else is added to it I'll amend the post as needed. Thank you to everyone who participated in that btw, preesh.

Meet Apollo, Antumbra's (Solar's) Sun restored with a new look in "Twisted Brotherhood"! She/he/they/them, pan/poly/cis, in a throuple with Nexus (not dating but queen platonic frenemies) and Antumbra (Solar) (I don't remember them ever considering each other family but if they did please let me know so I can change this). She's a bit of a clean freak like any Sun, but is a bit more mellowed out overall. She sticks around with Antumbra most of the time since Nexus kinda scares them and Deimos (Antumbra's Moon, also rebuilt (will explain more in the lore dump post coming soon) had left soon after being restored. (Also some of this info may be changed later or in the lore dump post, I just kinda like the idea of them being qp frenemies) anyway have this, this technically goes with the "I'm Not Me" oneshot

I think I finally have it done, here's the master list for the Twisted Brotherhood AU, it can and will be added upon or changed. And speaking of, if there's anything you think I should add, remove or change let me know, I'd love to hear opinions about it. This au is probably my top favorite au I've ever made for anything, and I'm really pretty proud of this one. I hope you guys enjoy it as well! Also with this being up, all characters mentioned, including Astrophel (Old Moon) are available for asks!

Basic Starting Info:

• Sun (from the original SAMS dimension) is the main target of Nexus and his little group for his Wither Shard abilities. Gains group is trying to protect him (maybe less protect to some of them, make Nexus lose out of spite or pettiness)

• Antumbra and Nexus revive Apollo, immediately infused with Negative Star Power thanks to both being rebuilt in Soltices dimension

• Antumbra, Soleil, Nexus, Equinox(?) Have their own group. Gaia, Cosmos, Erythros and Sanguine, Deimos, Blackout and Grimm have their own group against Nexus

• Antumbra turned when he decided to leave with Nexus

• “I’m Not Me” and “A Familiar Safe Haven” are canon to the au as well as any future fics written for the au (may have a few exceptions, will try to remember to label what is or isn’t canon, “Rekindling With A Spark” and “What Do You Think Of Me Now?” are not canon to the AU)

Origins/Backstories:

• Starts with Solar leaving with Nexus, taking the shards Moon and Sun had found with them. The shards (one of which was given to Solar to help him withstand and absorb and use the new dimension’s NSP/Dark Star Energy- he wears the crystal fixed into the back of one of his work gloves, Nexus has his in the fur of the tip of his hat). Following his leave Solar changed his name to Antumbra and rebuilt his Sun, now named Apollo. Eventually Antumbra tried reviving his Moon, now named Deimos, as well but something went wrong (Nexus figured Deimos somehow regained/retained his memories of Solar and that he hated him- even Apollo couldn’t convince him to stay) so he left and eventually joined Gaia and Cosmos.

• Gaia leaves when her system overrides and takes her to her father with star power she absorbed mostly from being around Lunar, a majority of it built up from the barely missed attack from Nexus. When she returned to him, however, she was able to harness her energy and kill the Creator, leaving everything behind afterwards.

• Lunar was next due to his encounter with rez. Due to having positive star power throughout his body it took a little longer than expected for them to be infected. When it did finally take hold, he behaved differently. When Gemini heard of this they went to investigate, and Lunar tried to kill them. This caused them to lock Lunar in a special compound that was incredibly if not impossibly hard to break out of. They were working with Taurus and Libra to try and find a cure for Lunar when Gaia came along to break him out and take him with her.

• Erythros went rogue after Stitchwraith was killed, leaving corpses in their wake yet no trace of where they were heading, only where they’d been. When Frank separated them and they discovered and started using star power their murdering doubled. It all came to a head when Stitchwraiths spirit came along to complete unfinished business, one last act of spite and vengeance. Sanguine (V1 Bloodmoon) tried to attack and failed,denial he just accepted it as his twin being back where he belongs in his head. Gaia eventually found them, and despite their previous encounters Gaia allowed them to stay as their group. They accepted, but only because they would be able to still be on their own when they weren’t playing guard dog to anyone.

• Eclipse, at first, didn’t go, trying to find a way to bring Earth back to their side. However he caved easily when she came to him and offered him star power again, offered to help him properly harness it this time. Thanks to his previous and current use and exposure to star power and negative energy, it caused his body to mutate in a more drastic way than just his eyes or lines on his body- his legs changed to furry hooves, he grew a second set of arms, as well as a tail and horns curving along his head between his rays.

• Grimm was restored by Deimos, breaking him from his previous life as a goody two shoes, reactivating the killer in him. His knowledge of star power made it fairly easy for him to grasp and use it for himself. Most of his time is spent with Erythros, Blackout, Deimos, Soleil, and Cosmos. He’s also become rather protective of Gaia (he spends time with her, almost taking a fatherly role for her, Erythros and Blackout)

Weapons/Abilities/Roles

• Soleil uses magic infused star power, tends to hang in the back lines making plans, uses a magic enhanced scythe.

• Deimos does some dirty work hunting with the others, hangs back sometimes with Soleil making plans or working on tech, uses a magic and negative star power infused Warhammer (Shao Khan style).

• Blackout works closely with Gaia and Cosmos, acting as a sort of general, giving orders and going out to hunt or work plans with Soleil and Deimos, uses a negative star power infused sword.

• Gaia is the main leader of the group with Cosmos and Grimm, top in command of their “family”(in the same way mafia members will call each other a family despite having no relation), still somehow the nicest of the bunch, uses a magic infused crossbow.

• Cosmos is the second in command to Gaia,

her right hand man, he’s a bit iffy working with Blackout and Erythros but can work with them if needed. Uses star power and a magic infused battle axe.

• Erythros is like a lone officer and bodyguard/feral guard dogunless he has to work with others. Closest to Grimm and Cosmos, uses Star Power and enhanced claw braces.

• Grimm tends to stalk and hunt but not kill unless ordered to, plays guard dog with Erythros, uses an enhanced scythe.

• Antumbra hangs back doing mechanic and repair work, stays with Nexus and Apollo most of the time, uses a star power infused mini laser cannon (mounted in his arm)

• Apollo stays with Antumbra most of the time, helps make plans or carry out some repair work, uses a simple pair daggers and pistols.

Random Tidbits/Facts/Miscellaneous Notes

• Old Moon (Astrophel) DOES NOT EXIST

• Soleil went rogue due to his exposure, use and encounters with the Wither Shards, Star Power, and Solstices’ Dragon which he had a strange connection to.

• Psychological, mental or emotional distress can and will make it easier for the Negative Star Power/Wither Shard Energy to infect/take over easier.

• When Apollo, Soleil, or even Antumbra, Solstice or Blackout get overly anxious or shaking they clench their fists together as tight as possible to stop or lessen the trembling. Deimos and Nexus have been able to pick up on this (Blackout will deny it till the day he permanently dies; this habit is also common across every dimensional Sun or Eclips3, though some deny it under “I don’t ever get anxious/scared”)

• Another habit across Suns and Eclipses is when they get too or highly distressed (such as a panic/anxiety attack) they grab and pull their rays like hair. They can and have managed to break or crack their rays doing this due to their robot grip strength (or if they have it) occasionally let off small but powerful bursts of magic thanks to their less stable mental or emotional state.
