a support group for people with “unconventional” daemons. jeff with his flounder he has to carry everywhere in a huge tank. lois with her poison dart frog everyone is afraid to touch. sam with their elephant that’s the reason they can never go higher than two stories in most buildings.

Arcane Daemon AU
Character: Silco Dæmon's name: Sintilla Dæmon's form : Black-necked spitting cobra (Naja nigricollis)
‘Sintilla’ comes from the Latin word ‘scintilla’, meaning ‘spark’. It’s the root of ‘scintillate’, meaning ‘to sparkle, gleam, or shimmer’.
Black-necked cobras can get up to 7 feet in length, but like her human Sin's a little on the small side, about 3.5 feet long.
Ever since she settled, Sintilla (or 'Sin') has preferred to ride on Silco's shoulder or wrapped around his arm. Crawling on the ground is just so undignified, and it's easy to get underfoot in Zaun. Plus the extra height gives her greater range if she needs to spit her venom. (She doesn't like to do this but we all have to do things we don't like to sometimes. And her aim is impeccable.)
Just about the only time she would leave Silco's side would be when he was with Vander; then she would coil around the neck of Vander's wolf-dog dæmon, nestled nice and snug in Skaha's soft, thick fur.
Sin's hood has been mangled since that night in the river, when Skaha gripped her in her jaws while Vander held Silco underwater. She fought like hell, though, and Skaha wound up permanently blind in one eye thanks to the venom Sin spat in her face.
Since then, Sin has been even more reluctant to part from Silco, often preferring to hide inside his clothes when he goes out in public. Her tendency to remain hidden this way has led to some disturbing rumors that the Eye of Zaun has no dæmon at all; rumors Silco may himself be encouraging.

People who make "dæmon AUs" and then just stick dæmons into the world of the story they're crossing over with are cowards. Sure, occasionally they include other things from the His Dark Materials series, such as witches and armored bears, but if you want to do something, go all the way.

winnix for the niche headcanons pleaseeeeee!! i love everything you say about them ever 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Let's do more Dæmon AU bc I can never have enough Dæmon AU.
Dick's dæmon is a female Gyrfalcon named Anahida. She's very reticent. It comes across as majestic and very self-possessed, and in some ways that is true. But she's also reticent because that's just how they were raised. I imagine it's a religious sensibility thing for them that sorta bled into societal norm. It's just polite to not acknowledge a person's dæmon. After all, a dæmon is a person's soul made physical, and talking to them, I imagine, is like barging your way into someone's physical space. It'd just be more respectful if you kept interactions between humans and humans only. Human-dæmon and dæmon-dæmon interaction is reserved strictly for family.
I imagine it might be like this in most parts of mid-century America, too.
So imagine Dick and Anahida's surprise, when not only does Lew's chameleon dæmon, Amalthea, address Anahida directly and without qualm, but Lew does, too.
It's Weird. But what's equally weird, however, is how much Anahida and Dick like it. Especially Anahida. She's been going about so unseen for so long... it's nice. To be able to talk to someone outside of just Dick.

Carmen Sandiego Dæmon AU???
(For those unfamiliar: dæmons are creatures created by Phillip Pullman, the TL;DR is they are a part of a persons soul and they manifest as an animal that fits that person 👍, dæmons can touch each other just fine but another person touching your dæmon is taboo 😳)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I have ideas for most of the other characters and hopefully I will be able to show these ideas, but for now this is all I’ve got 💪)
Here is the very incomplete list I have, (names are in brackets)((I know I forgot Player, I am so sorry))
Tumblr media
(((Big thanks to @mavratt for helping me with animal ideas 🙏🙏🙏)))

Not me thinking about a His Dark Materials au where Pete's dæmon Altia settles as a peregrine falcon while he's on his own as a kid, because the last foster home was terrible in all new ways. Not me thinking about how he's both elated and devastated, because his soul is the fastest bird of prey in the sky, proof that he's made to be a pilot, but she's trapped so close to the ground because of their bond.
Not me thinking about him seeking out a witch's clan and begging them to help, to free her from his tether.
Not me thinking about the matron ready to turn him away, stopping for a moment to ask him why. Doesn't he know he'll be missing such a huge piece of himself?
No, he says, she's me and I'm her and we'll never be separate, but she needs to fly, because I need to fly, but it's going to be too long before I can join her.
Not me thinking about the matron teaching him that secret, the secret of far-flying wings, because he understands dæmons the way witches understand dæmons, and his soul will never be happy on the ground.
Not me thinking about everyone who meets him after unnerved by his obvious lack of dæmon, the whispers that follow him everywhere, from university to flight school to the Enterprise to Top Gun, because his soul is free to fly as high as her heart desires, and he can always feel her right in the core of him.
(Not me thinking about years later, when the matron watches a boy grown to a man bring another to her clan, one who was as trapped as he once was, a falcon with clipped wings who only wanted to fly, ice blue eyes wary as he introduces Lapsae with soft voice, and no little bit of hope.)

dæmon au where after returning from hell, dean's dæmon comes back Unsettled. at first it's kinda fun; they Settled pretty early, so being able to change forms again is bizarre and novel. they have a great time teasing sam and his dæmon via matching forms and one-upmanship, and kids they interview on the job think it's so cool that the scary fbi guy in the suit's dæmon can run through shifts and change forms back and forth with their dæmons. (adults are pretty freaked by it, though. like here's a guy pushing 30 and he's still Unsettled? something's wrong here, capital-w Wrong.)

Restricted touches
“Elain, you are about to pass out from exhaustion,” Anwar spoke from the perch Elain usually had around the kitchen for him. “Just take a break.”
“I can’t,” was her only answer as she continued to mix the batter of the new recipe she had come up with. 
“You can't take a break or pass out?” Arwan rebutted, exasperated. “Because you can definitely pass out, I can feel how tired you are, you know.” 
As the months passed and the day of Nesta’s and Cassian’s mating ceremony approached, Elain felt more stressed. She loved how much trust her sister had in her, to believe that Elain could be in charge of the decorations like the ballroom, the flower arrangements, the table’s center, and the cake. However, she should have known it would be too much work for one person.
So that led them to today. Elain had started baking 5 different types of cake since before the sun had gone up, Cassian and Nesta were coming during dinner for cake testing. The thing about Elain that Anwar disliked was how much pressure she would put on her shoulders and how she thought she deserved no help.
“I’m only going to tell you that if you pass out and Feyre finds you on her floor, I will tell her everything,” Anwar said angrily.
“And what exactly is everything,” She asked, rolling her eyes at how dramatic her dæmon could be while serving the batter in a tray to put in the oven.
“That you aren’t sleeping because you dread seeing the shadow singer the next day and how you are going to bed incredibly late to not have to think about it and how you are basically slowly killing yourself” Anwar answered exasperatedly, flapping his wings.
“Anwar!” Elain exclaimed, offended, turning to look at him after putting the cake in the oven. 
“You can’t even tell me it’s not true!” he rebutted glaring at her.
Elain sighed and dropped herself on a chair. 
Anwar expecting a comeback waited on his perch but when Elain rested her head on the chair and hid her face with her hands staying quiet, he was at her side in an instant, he landed on her shoulder and started rubbing his head against the side of hers trying to console her and give her some comfort. 
“I’m sorry Elain,” he murmured in her ear, “I’m just worried about you.”
Elain let a small sob get out and Anwar could feel the tears running down her face and had returned to trying to comfort her, neither aware that someone was watching. 
Azriel stayed behind the wall, his shadows going everywhere and not knowing what to do to console Elain besides repeating over and over to Azriel how heartbroken she was, and why.
She was in the same or worse scenario as Azriel, neither being able to sleep nor being able to stop thinking about the other. Azriel had started to not get more than a couple of hours of sleep, it was starting to affect his senses and making him sloppier when on missions. They were both slowly wasting away since that night. 
“ Oh poor Petal,” murmured Senka from his shoulder as she tried to catch a peak of Elain. “ you need to go in there and console her!” She exclaimed, flapping her wings and taking off from his shoulder. “ That's how we will make it right!”
Azriel caught her before she could make a line for the kitchen, “ no.” He said firmly with his most intimidating voice.
Senka rolled her eyes and swat at him with her wing. “ do not use that voice with me.” She warned and wiggled herself out of his grasp. “ You are both clearly miserable, why not go and fix things?”
Azriel sighed and ran his hand through his hair, “ Rhysand” He answered with an obvious tone. 
“ well fuck Rhys!” She exalted loudly. 
“ Senka!” Azriel reprimanded her. 
“It’s not fair that he gets to be with Feyre no matter what and suddenly you don’t get to have a choice about your own relationship!” Senka exclaimed, annoyed. “ if Aster knew about this, he himself would be kicking Rhysand for this” 
Azriel’s shadow hand informed him that Elain had begun standing up but was looking pale not being able to stand properly. He and Senka had moved to the edge of the wall to peek at the door and when Azriel saw Elain go down, he lunged himself catching her. 
He landed on the floor back first with her on top of him. He had a good grip of her and held onto her neck.
“Elain!” Anwar screamed, flapping above them anxious and worried. “ Elain, Are you okay?”
“ I’m fine,” she mumbled tiredly.
“What happened?” Azriel asked as he re-adjusted Elain closer to his chest and reached a sitting position with her on his lap. 
Anwar looked both ways before getting closer to him making sure not to touch him. “ She-,” he started not sounding sure if to confide in him.
While Elain and Azriel had always had a gentle and blossoming friendship, Anwar was unsure what to make of the shadowsinger. His first days in the world were foggy and confusing but he could remember bits and pieces, most of his clear memories involved the shadowsinger. 
“ Please Anwar” Azriel pleaded as he hold the owls gaze, “ I need to know if we need to get Magda” 
Anwar shook his head, “ she hasn’t slept well in days.” Was the only thing he said before landing on Elain’s lap and curling against her. “ not since the solstice incident.” 
“Oh, poor girl.” Senka lamented landing on Azriel’s shoulder
“I’m fine,” Elain murmured with her eyes closed, and snuggling closer to Azriel, she put her arms around Azriel’s neck.
Azriel’s cheeks turned red and neither Anwar nor Senka could hide her laughter.
Elain for the first time since being washed out of the cauldron, felt safe. She opened her eyes and could see Azrael's siphon and his armor, she could feel something soft next to Azriel’s hair.
Senka. 
Elain gave the bat a small smile and reached for her. Anwar and Azriel stayed quiet as Elain reached for Senka, no one stopping her and when her fingers finally reached her, Azriel closed his eyes, enjoying the sensation and the love of that single touch.
Touching someone dæmons was forbidden in Pyrinthian. Your dæmon was an extension of your soul, touching someone's soul could feel like the worst violation ever, and even amongst mates it was frowned upon but having Elain reach out to his soul and touch it with such care and gentleness, reminded him why he loved her so much. 
Anwar had climbed on his other shoulder next to Elain’s head and had started rubbing his peak gently on his cheek. 
And that’s how Feyre found them. 
On the floor, cuddle up and in their own bubble.
And that’s how she left them and walked away with Nyx in her arms and Aster behind her.

Arcane Daemon AU:
Character: Jinx/Powder Dæmon’s name: Morrig / 'Rig' Dæmon’s form: Various (see below)
Though the daemons of children can change form at will, they eventually settle on a fixed form around the time the child reaches adolescence. At the time of Act 1, Rig hadn't settled yet, but the form he used the most often was that of a brush mouse (Peromyscus boylii)
Rig, however, did not settle, though after the explosion at the docks he never took the mouse form again. By the time of Act 2, he spends most of his time as either a large Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus) or as a hooded crow (Corvus cornix). This is a reflection of many things: Jinx's mercurial nature, her arrested emotional development, and the conflicted nature of her identity.
In both of these forms he typically perches on Jinx's shoulders, which are pretty much constantly covered in little claw-scratches and talon-pricks as a result. She doesn't seem to mind.
At the end of Act 3, Rig finally settles on the crow form, as Jinx ceases to be in conflict over who she is.
I took the name Morrig from Morrigu, another name for the Morrigan. Neither Jinx nor Powder ever called him Morrig, though; he was always just Rig.
Rig's eyes have changed as Jinx's have: first to blue after the warehouse explosion, then pink after her 'resurrection' via Shimmer.

Now I'm thinking about a His Dark Materials x Stranger Things AU and the similarities are just enough for it to make a lot of sense but both stories have so much material (pun intended) in them that I don't even know where to start, other than with the fact that the scientists and Brenner and everyone is the Magisterium, Will is taken by the Gobblers/the General Oblation Board, El is probably from Will's World (Will Parry's world, not to be confused with Will Byers - there are just too many Wills here), and she doesn't have a visible dæmon. Barb is a bit too old to be taken by the Gobblers - she probably got caught finding information she shouldn't know and they got rid of her. I feel like the Byers would be gyptians, too, living in a gyptian boat. Henry Creel was probably the one to first open a gate between world by ripping himself apart from his own dæmon, and that's part of how he kills people - severing from their dæmons, killing them, opening a gate. The parallels are just too strong!
But I wouldn't set it in Europe like the original books... I would set it in North America, in their canon location.
The Globetrotter's Map shows that the United States does not exist in this world - instead you get New Denmark, Texas, and Beringia (Alaska), bordering Hispania Nova to the south and New France to the north. That would make them New Danish, right? And maybe the only General Oblation Board facility is in Svalbard and they need to go all the way across New France and Greenland to get there, or maybe this time around there's a facility in Beringia, or simply in the New French far north. Somewhere far away, hopefully where you can see the northern lights. I like that idea, to keep it more North America inspired.
Tumblr media
After whatever experiments they perform on Will, he can separate from his dæmon like a witch, but it also kind of feels like his dæmon can cross worlds without need for a portal, and this happens unexpectedly and without them being able to control it. El, of course, is considered an aberration since she does not have a dæmon, but the party pretty quickly figures that she does - it's just "inside of her".
Jonathan is maybe a photographer who got his hands on some special equipment to photograph dust - something he shouldn't be allowed to own. Steve is on his way to joining the Magisterium's law enforcement arm, though he quickly realizes how horrible the Magisterium really is. Jason is the one who stays there and continues to rise through the ranks. Eddie is the town heretic who just wants to enjoy his fantasy books - banned by the Magisterium for promoting subversive ideas about God, or just not having God be present, or whatever. He has a small secret fantasy reading club where he and the boys like to enjoy forbidden literature about dragons and knights and play board games based on them. The town does not like it. El can communicate directly with Dust. She's like a human alethiometer. Robin is New Denmark's most dangerous polyglot who just accidentally intercepted some weird messages on the radio in multiple different languages about missing children in Beringia. Hopper used to work for the Magisterium as a law enforcer until his daughter mysteriously disappeared and they refused to give him an answer. Max is just there to punch God in the face.
It's almost 6 am and I haven't had any sleep so idk if this makes sense... but it makes sense in my little heart
