Wow! Thank You!

Wow! thank you!

I'm also on a Sodor fallout kick. Have a saved Oliver, cursed to be forever in the skin of a monster.

Sodor fallout AU, hope you like.

Since Gordon is now blind and has his mouth obstructed he has both the Henry's guide him around. He's been learning sign language, morse code, and braille along with the others. The outbreak turning a lot of people suddenly blind or mute.

James can still speak but with a very heavy slur, he's been learning sign and morse to help him communicate better. Percy mainly communicates in morse code by clicking his tongue, he rarely takes off his mask and now eats by sticking a tube down his throat. Thomas is actually not blind in his former right eye, he can see movement out of it like a heat signature that has an incredible radius, it helps out a lot with sneaking around. His third eye can actually see in the dark while his remaining normal left eye is untouched.

Oliver's trachea is actually exposed under his chin and a tongue often sticks out of it, he can still talk through his mouth but nobody is willing to ask what his biology is now to know how he does it (if he even knows himself.) His flytrap-like mouth can twist in spot to become the shape of a normal mouth, his head will get sucked in and his trachea will become the new throat for that mouth. He uses the tentacles on his back often to assist with heavy lifting with the repair projects, but the others are still a little off putted by them, especially people like Percy, Duck, Toby... and well honestly a few who have survived an attack from him. He refuses to merge or even summon his train body anymore.

Okay so while researching for the next chapter of the ttte giant au, I came across some fun info. There were apparently 10 E2's built, and I researched what 10 twins were, apparently that's called decaplets. So Thomas is one of ten decaplets... all the twin characters on Sodor can eat their hearts out, Thomas has you in spades. Just a fun idea, I might make a small one-shot about it later of just a charge of tank engines rolling into Knapford, I'd feel so sorry for Edward because he'd be essentially teaching a class how to shunt. And good lord would Gordon be living a nightmare.

Hold up, changed my mind. I completely forgot Duchess. Her and Scotty, that'd be a ship I'd pay to see sail.

Top 10 fav ships? TTTE and tugs?

Fuck... forgive me if I do more than 10 because I like a lot of ships. Hercules x Zebedee Ten Cents x Zip Gordon x Rebecca Zak x Nia Millie x Caitlin Victor x Luke Cranky x Carly x Big Micky Salty x Porter ...Okay that's actually less than I thought, those are all the cannon ones at least. The rest are like characters I'd wager have a crush on another, and some I want to give someone to love but can't, or I ship them but in a different relationship sense like platonically. I'm gonna say those too. Spencer x Connor (Spencer I imagine struggles with his love life, so he likes Connor but doesn't know how to go about it because he doesn't want his image ruined.) Flying Scotsman x Rebecca (After she basically made him tongue-tied he found himself very interested in her, but was shocked to see her and Gordon together. He likes Rebecca but he also likes seeing his brother happy, so he's conflicted.) Rosie x James (I see these two a lot more like siblings, hell! in my mythic AU they are siblings.) Alright, the rest are who I want to give ships to but I find that I cant. Edward (It's implied in my giant AU that he and Thomas are rather close but they still see each other as really good friends.) Diesel (I don't know who I can safely ship him with.) Diesel 10 (Same issue.) Herny (I would like to say Gordon but the thing is, Henry could be considered like a half-sibling to Gordon because he was a wack Gresley originally.) James (I want to give this guy someone to make him happy but I feel like options are limiting.) And I'd like to say a lot more characters but I've already rambled enough...

I've been on another Sodor fallout kick, so let me explain mutated James and Duck. James has a sort of echolocation, he can make a click sound out of any of his mouths and it comes back to him with vibrations to his teeth, like clickers from the last of us. This by proxy makes his teeth very sensitive, he does not do well in winter as a result, having to put on a mask that covers everything but his one remaining eye. He also has rows of teeth down his throat with the first row being a secondary mouth like the xenomorphs in aliens. James has a hard time speaking because of his deformities so he will often wear a tailored mask that covers most of his face while he's in the company of others, this is also the same mask he will use during winter because of his sensitive teeth. He will take off this mask when he is going out on a mission as his echolocation is often vital for detecting hostiles. Duck was on the road to being infected and mutated when Oliver finally found him, the hole that was punctured in his head actually made room for a more balanced mutation to happen on his body. Duck has the ability to see mutated spots as a glow, this is vital in a way to tell if where they are heading into is a hot spot for radiation, or how mutated someone is. If Duck were to look at Edward or Henry, he sees no glow, just an outline. If he were to look at Oliver he'd see a massive aura, while if he looked at Thomas or James he'd see some moderate auras. While Duck's new ability is crucial in detecting dangerous amounts of radiation, or how mutated someone is, he can only see in black and white with the auras in color. So when a non-mutated person comes up to him he can't see them all that well. (this has led to him running into Percy on more than one occasion.) He normally has a mutated friend guiding him around because of his partial blindness, this person happens to be Diesel of all people since he is marginally mutated although you wouldn't be able to tell it at first glance. That's all I got for now, feel free to ask questions to/about any of the other characters.

All engines go giant Thomas... he will forever love you if you pet him.
