This is my second time unwillingly serving something eldritch.
@ask-the-maniac
Don't reblog my rp threads if you aren't involved in them. Ask/RP blog for a DBD/JTHM crossover AU where Johnny's a killer in the Entity's realm (The Maniac being his title as a killer). Mod goes by Mist. Icon by pragmaticinsanity. Mod and muse are over 18. Â
Alright, well. I already got the page with the rules and the ref and the about, but I may as well put stuff here since it’s a feature. So!
Rules:
1. There’s not gonna be NSFW content here. I have zero interest in writing or posting that kind of thing.
2. We’re OC-friendly here, don’t worry about that kinda thing.
3. Do not reblog my rp threads if you aren’t involved in them
. It’s notifications that I don’t need when I’m trying to keep an eye out for responses.
4. I got nothing against multi-shipping or anything, but there’s only one (1) going here and I’m not changing that.
About:
A few years back, I pretty much went “Well, Dead by Daylight is a game full of iconic slasher villains. Johnny the Homicidal Maniac kinda feels like one, at least in my opinion. What if I put him in Dead by Daylight?” And now here we are.
In terms of info about me: I go by Mist, use she/her pronouns, and I’m an adult. I follow from that-kangaroo-fish.
how have you been johnny i missed ya 🖤🔪🖤🔪
"I've been fine. Still forced to follow the whims of an eldritch spider-thing and kill people. Been a lot more weird additions to the place over the past... However long it's been, I try not to think about that."
"The Entity got its not-hands on a Xenomorph a while back. Not that I've encountered it in-person - I'd like to keep it that way. I've had enough holes punched into my skull already."
Johnny grunted as he tried to shift off of his back, but stayed where he had fallen. The impact was enough to stun him, despite his enhanced strength, so he could only dread how Devi was fairing at his side. He dropped his head to the left and watched her form with exhausted, but fearful eyes. Her arms were folded near her head, and she was sprawled on her front, legs curled as if she was sleeping. She was breathing, but the intake was so labored, Johnny felt no relief until he saw her eyelids lift open, and her dazed irises settle on her wrist before glancing up at him.
Yah - Something your muse agrees on 100% of the time
Loyalty - Does your character have any loyalty to any group
Pride - What is your muse's biggest flaw
(ask meme)
Given the nature of his current situation there's a lot of options, but: Honestly he'd agree with the notion that he's a bad person. Sure he's worked on himself a fair bit, buuut that doesn't exactly undo all the harm he's done, y'know?
Not to any groups, no.
Ultimately, a lot of his problems stem from his lack of impulse control, which is what I'd consider the biggest flaw he's got.
Hey who wants some of that Pokemon AU that @im-feelin-sick made (and i suppose i'm co-creator for)? I've been working on and off on my own contributions to it, and now I've got something finished (also on ao3 if you'd prefer reading there!)
(3/???)

“Ya fucked up.”
“I know.”
“Badly.”
“I know.”
Sableye grumbled irritably at Nny’s subdued responses - glad that he was acknowledging what was being said, but also aggravated at this conversation’s existence.Â
The pair of them (plus Houndstone, whose head was currently resting on Nny’s legs) wouldn’t be sitting here, Sableye having to stitch his wounds, if Nny hadn’t turned on a goddamn dime out of nowhere in the middle of his date with Devi.
But here they fucking were! And, honestly, it wasn’t just Nny who got hurt during that whole... thing. Sableye itself had stepped in after shoving aside its panic, and Nny’s other Pokemon fought back in kind.
They, however, didn’t have the years of experience Sableye did. Sure, it took a few hits, but nothing near as bad as the beating Nny got.
It was pretty sure a length of 2x4 got involved at one point.
“The fact that she didn’t cave in your skull would be a miracle if it weren’t for how thick the damn thing is,” it muttered, briefly stopping its ministrations to flick a claw against his head.Â
Even in this mess, it wasn’t above a lighthearted jab or two. And, frankly, Sableye felt it had the right to be at least a little petty.
“Ow, ow, sore spot,” Nny winced, ducking his head. Sableye would’ve rolled its eyes if that were possible.
“Your entire body is a sore spot right now, Johnny, c’mon. And stay still, I’m almost done with these stitches.”
--- HALF AN HOUR LATER ---
They were all situated on the couch; Nny cross-legged on one side, Houndstone curled up on the other, and Sableye perched on the back.
Sableye held up its closed hands. “Good news,” it raised a finger on its left hand, “nobody died.”
“And the--”
“Bad news,” a finger raised on its right hand, “you fucked up a perfectly good date,” another finger raised, “you got your ass kicked the worst it’s ever been,” a third, “and now someone who knows about your murderous tendencies is out and about.”
Nny’s head sunk lower with each addition.Â
“And, bonus problem, Marshadow followed Devi on her way out,” Sableye concluded.
As it expected, Nny almost bolted off the couch, only kept in place by Houndstone, who let out a stubborn huff as it sprawled across Nny’s lap.
“Fucking-- Houndstone, move!” Nny shouted, to no success.
Sableye shook its head. “We already talked about this while dragging you back here,” it explained. “You’re in no shape to go anywhere, and, more importantly, I don’t think she’d listen to anything you have to say after the shit you pulled.”
They both knew Sableye had a point - at times, it was the closest thing he had to a proper voice of reason.
“Then what the fuck am I supposed to do? Sit around and live with the fact that that fucking thing is bound to cause problems for her?”
“Considering what happened a couple hours ago, yes. What’re you gonna do, write her a fucking apology note? “Sorry I tried to kill you,” or something, so she’ll listen to you?”
“...”
“Oh my fucking God don’t tell me you were actually considering that.” It looked, and sounded, thoroughly exhausted. Of fucking course he’d get that idea in his head. “I’m nipping that in the bud right now, that’s not gonna work out for you.”
Even with that shutdown, there was still a defiant, plotting look in Nny’s eyes. Some sort of plan was brewing in there, it could tell.
Sableye pinched between its eyes, slowly shaking its head. “I know you’re gonna do something stupid. At least try not to get caught,” it urged. It knew Nny well enough by now; when he got a particular kind of idea stuck in his head, he’d hardly ever budge on the matter.
If it’d known that Nny was planning on stalking, of all things, it would’ve beaten him over the head.
