Tall-tales and good advice
Poor Tokoyami finally got the courage to leave the depths of the ocean, just to hear Hawks yap about himself for a few hours... He doesn't seem to mind at least.
Mer-AU Hawks!
I can't stop drawing him as magical creatures lol
Tokoyami & Darkshadow Mer AU
Deep Waters
Tokoyami started his life in the cold, lonely Waters of the deep ocean. There were very few signs of life in the depths, but if he managed to catch a glimpse of what lurked just out of his vision, he feared what might happen if he ventured closer.
As he grew older, he came to accept that solitude was the best way to stay alive. Solitude brought him safely. If you're alone, there's nothing to fear.
And yet... the darkness crept into his mind. It failed to give him the comfort he craved.
He felt a deep and debilitating loneliness. He was split between the security of isolation and the contempt of companionship.
Though the shadows engulfing his body failed to keep him from acquiring any company, it brought him no distress, for there was something significantly more concerning to keep your eyes out for.
Flinkering lights emerged below him. The bioluminescent glow penitrated his vision and left him with an emotion that he had long forgotten in his years drifting alone. Panic!
As Tokoyami Clumsily fumbled about, fueled by his will to live, the lights below his tentacles shifted from a occasional flicker, to a string of constant and violent flashes.
The lights began to bolt frightening quickly upwards, heading directly towards where Tokoyami was located. He collected himself and used all his might to lunge up into the water above him, frantically trying to get as far away from the approaching threat.
His only chance to survive is to escape to the bright, open waters above the dark ocean that Tokoyami had grown so accustom to. Very few creatures are willing to expose themselves to the blinding light that was awaiting the both of them.
He had only been in the light a few times before, and the experience was completely overwhelming. The water around him was too warm, he felt like he could see miles ahead of him, and there was an abundance of possible dangers in all directions. Even with all these factors, he'd rather take the risk of the possibility of danger than the one currently swiftly catching up to him.
It was a race for survival unlike anything Tokoyami has ever experienced. Adrenaline rushed through him as his eyes failed to adjust properly to his surroundings, the darkness being replaced by an unfamiliar blue.
The heavy weight of the water began releasing him as he could feel the stong currents produced by the creature below him, nearly close enough to graze the ends of his tentacles.
The water became a bright blue as the swift waters below him ceased their assult on Tokoyami's senses. He swam up another 30 feet before turning to see what had been chasing him.
It was a large, juvenile eel, purple in color with many spots, strung together like a pearl necklace, lining its body from head to tail, now just blinking gently, her lights now dim compared to the overwhelming abundance of sunshine that illuminated the both of them. Her yellow eyes stared intensely at Tokoyami's two larger tentacles.
She was unmoving. The two stared at eachother for what felt like hours, just waiting for the other to make a move. The eel was the first to make a move, but not the way Tokoyami was expecting. She slowly approached the older boy with small deliberate movements. Her mouth etched into what could only described as a toothy smile as she moved in closer to Tokoyami's dominant tentacle.
Tokoyami was less then thrilled to have the thing that had been chasing him a short while ago now moving in closer by the second. He couldn't move. As much as he wanted to, he had spent all his energy swimming away. His muscles are too sore, he's overwhelmed by his new environment, and he's afraid that any sudden move will send the large eel into another rage.
The eel was a few inches away now. She seemed almost docile as she placed her snout under Tokoyami's tentacle. Brushing her face across his suction cups and moving gracefully as she circled around his body.
Tokoyami eased up as the once violent eel now attempted to cuddle up against him. She didn't look at his face, but instead the two larger tentacles pertruding from his body.
After a few moments, Tokoyami decided that if he wasn't dead yet, it was probably safe enough to move. He slowly started to swim back into the depths as his new friend followed shortly behind him.
He feel as if she's not going to leave him alone anytime soon. As he lowers back into the darker water, he began to feel comforted as he returned to the void.
Maybe the shadows weren't as lonely as he thought..

merman Neil finds a lot of people’s jewellery and always gives them his merman Andrew.
Andrew is always resentful but still wears these jewellery because a) it’s Neil’s gift b) Neil gave this c) it’s none of your fucking business
and he puts on himself these countless necklaces and beads, puts on rings and some strange bracelets. and he absolutely everything changes. one day Andrew wears gaudy yellow beads made of artificial shells with rings with black stones. then he will put on emerald choker and beaded rings. However, there’s a bracelet which Andrew will never remove. smooth pebbles hanging on green algae. they are not as smooth as they were then Neil found them but Andrew doesn’t care. It is unique bracelet. Andrew will put it on until his death. and even after he won’t do it.
Mermay!!! All Might!! AfO to come next!
Mermay Special Prompt 3
“Are you kidding? No one goes to Gotham, that place is like,” Aquaman made a motion with his hand, a not-quite grimace on his face. “Like things should not be living in the water, like it should be impossible, and things should be dead, but they aren’t and it’s like, like the equivalent of an undead apocalypse over there!”
Bruce rolled his eyes behind his cowl, taking a sip of his coffee as the others continued drinking. Socialize, they said, it’ll be fine they said. Well excuse him, but the waters weren’t that bad. Sure there were always dumped bodies, and chemicals from the rogue attacks, but it was far worse at one point.
One thing he’ll always be relieved for is how the… curse (thank you broken statuette back in the beginning of his vigilante career that fused with the other many curses of Gotham) made the people of Gotham actually care about the waters around them.
Though also, he couldn’t help but thank anything that might be listening for the fact that the curse only interacted with Gotham waters, because losing legs with any risk of a drop of water would be downright annoying.
“No dude, you don’t understand, no one goes there for a reason! That shit is horrific- someone saw a big thing with bits of rebar stabbed straight through it and still chased after a big alligator-thing!” Oh. Oh that had been him. Oops. Hopefully his kids didn’t find out about this, but they were probably already on the cameras. Dammnit.
This is a part 2 to my merman!bakugo headcanon’s, you don’t need to read part 1 to understand this but for a better experience I recommend reading part 1.
You begin to hang out with merman!bakugo more, it’s not like you really had a choice.
Every time you walked out of your little cottage he’d pop his head out of the water and screech at you. “What a nice da-“ “RÆEEEEEEEEE”.
he has a love hate relationship with your human legs, on one fin hand, their stoping you from swimming away with him, on the other hand he loooves laying on them.
,Don’t matter what size or shape, he will pull himself up onto the dock, where your sitting, and lay his head on them (wish I was merman!bakugo rn 💔/j)
You’ve discovered that he also loves chin scratches, whenever you scratch his chin he lets out a kinda purr, like a cat.
Once he tried to give you chin scratches because he liked them so much, but his nails were to sharp and he cut you.
He wants to impress you so bad :((, he try’s to flex his strong tail and bring you dead fish to show you he can provide & will be the best mate.
When that doesn’t work he try’s to learn more of your language so he complement you.
“You” he points at you with his webbed hand “yes Bakugo” you say looking down at his head in your lap “very p-retty, smart strong” you chuckle, and scratch his chin “yea?, thanks”
He lets you lay on his torso while floating in the clear water.

Thinking about Merman!Bakugou
Merman!Bakugou who watches you move into the cottage near the dock he hangs out at and is fascinated by your 2 tails (legs) and how you stand on them and move without water.
Merman!Bakugou who retreats deep into the water when, 1 weeks after moving in you decide to take a swim in the ocean so close to your house.
Merman!bakugou Who is finally close enough to see you better and realises you have no scales, fins or gills.
Merman!bakugou who panics when you dive into the water because you have no gill’s and swims faster then he ever has before to lift you up to the surface and on to the dock.
Merman!Bakugou who shrill’s at you in his fishy language, scolding you for doing something so reckless and your just like 😨
Merman!Bakugou who is saddened immensely by you running into your house screaming but still waits for you at the dock every day reading, well trying to read the human books he found in ship wrecks to learn you language.
Merman!bakugou who swims in happy circles when you come out to the dock again and pops up out of the water and begins speaking to you with his very limited vocabulary.
“H-hello p-retty human”
Merman!bakugo who is just met with a wide eye stare and you spluttering “h-hello fish man”
Merman!bakugo who splashes you with his big tail “N-NOT F-F-FISH M-AN” he points to himself and yells “BAKUGO”
