Fics like Take a Breath and Hush

The apocalypse has started in the briny depths. Ryland Grace, a scientist with a fondness for the ocean, enjoys a simple life. He lives in his tiny shack in a New England wharf town and teaches his precious students until eclipses plunge his home into darkness and fish wash up on the coastline, bloated and rotting from the inside out. Something is deeply wrong with the sea, and Grace has no idea how to fix it. Meanwhile, a convict known as Simon "The Butcher," the sole survivor of a wrecked ship meant to feed a god, finds his humanity stripped from him and turned into a monster beneath the waves. When Grace finds Simon, Simon is convinced his hell will never end. Grace has no idea his is only just beginning. ------- What if, BloodyMary, but instead of space, we're in the 1800s, with big wooden ships and Simon is a mer-like creature who Grace chooses to befriend? And of course, Eldritch gods and horror abound. Project Hail Mary, Iron Lung, H.P. Lovecraft, Dredge, The Lighthouse and gods-know-what-else all had a nice blood orgy in the sea and the author decided to write it. Usually updates Fridays.
