It's another stupid AU! ... Ultraman Rising AU😅 please stop me I have too many AU ideas.

Gustave at first was supposed to be Ken but in the end Verso fitted more as cheeky protagonists 😹Soo amazing pianist Verso at the peak of his career has to juggle out concerts and saving Paris from kaijiu as Ultraman, because his old man asked him to. And in keep reading little sweet baby kaijiu Alicia , that Verso will have to take care of. Cute reporter Gustave will help him do that .

Drummer!Verso and Singer!Gustave

[maslokk]

Soooooo this is Verso's guardian angel. Is this another AU? YES... Angel!Gustave. Guardian angels are born at the same time as person who they take care of. So little Angel!Gustave grows up with Verso and try to make his life better and help him in need. At some point Gustave thinks Verso hears him because when Gustave tells him "It's okay to not follow your parents dreams Verso, please don't force yourself to do that" Verso says out loud "Thank you my angel you always make everything better." But is impossible to hear or see angels. Only interactions like real interactions are in Verso's dreams. It's not always that Gustave spends time in Verso's dreams now. When they were younger he was playing with Verso there but as they got older Gustave just watched and only intervene when nightmares came to Verso, but Verso noticed him one day with:

"Do I know you?"

"No, I don't think you do"

"Can I sit here?"

"Ummmm...yes?"

And that's how their little dream "dates" start. Gustave hopes other angels won't notice but he can't stop now especially when he sees that smile on Verso that in real life doesn't happen much, only around Alicia, others are those ugly fake smiles Verso puts on. So he continues and listen to Verso when he wants to vent about the pressure from his family or just how his day went. Then the day of the fire comes. Gustave knows and he can't do anything...just watch and whisper nothings to Verso when he dies in agony...but just before that beam is supposed to crush Verso and stop him from escaping, Gustave extend his wings to stop it...it hurts so much... his fethers burn and the smell is so bad but he yells to Verso "Run Verso please just run with Alicia." Verso stares at the beam that should crush and trap him here for a moment and runs. When Gustave knows Verso is safe he disappears ... he's summoned to heaven.

"WHAT DID YOU DO!?" Alan yells at him.

"I couldn't let him die and if he did his family would be in misery"

"I'm sorry Gustave. I really don't want this for you but we have rules, you have to face consequences of your actions. I'm really sorry Gustave ... forgive me my friend."

And if Gustave thought that him holding that beam hurt...this is so much worse. Hells fire is burning his wings so there is nothing left there. Agony like he never felt before...and then he's falling.

I guess this is some fairy tales?Verstave. Gustave goes to Black Forest to find Witch who can give him cure for his sister. Verso is there to get cure for himself. He's cursed with lycanthropy. They travel together but during the full moon Verso asks Gustave to tie him up because he doesn't want to hurt him. Plot twist Werewolf/Wolf!Verso loves Gustave already and he acts more like a puppy and of course when some creatures attack them he keeps Gustave safe😌

SOOOOOOO In a land of myth, and a time of magic two Kingdoms (Sun Kingdom and Moon Kingdom) to keep peace decide to to arrange marriage between them. Their second borns are perfect for it ( no matter the gender first borns have rights to throne, so Clea and Emma (she is just a few minutes older)). They decide to marry them when both of them will be 26. They never meet. Sun Prince was born with weak body and no one wants to risk anything. Years pass. Just after his 26 birthday Verso decides to go on a trip to Sun Kingdom incognito to see who his weakling of a future husband is. There are still have few months before wedding (because Sun prince is a summer child). And that's where he meets Gustave. Ray of sunshine that helps everyone in a village with his magic and of course Verso falls for him. Fuck Sun Prince he's going to marry Gustave. Just before summer starts Verso ask Gustave to run away with him, but Gustave refuses:

" I told you Verso, I'm betrothed. No matter how much I want it...how much I want you... Verso, I have obligations towards my family."

"Fuck obligations, fuck whoever your parents force you to marry. Gustave just go with me. We will find some place beyond Kingdoms here, we will travel and no one will find us. Please."

"I can't...I really can't..." Tears start to fall down Gustave's cheeks and Verso knows Gustave won't change his mind.

"I...understand...can you give me this night at least..."

"Of course"

Verso goes back to his Kingdom there's no need to runaway...not without Gustave. From what he gathered during his trip Sun prince is just boring, weak bookworm not leaving palace at all.

Summer comes. Wedding is planned day after Sun prince birthday and Moon Kingdom is invited at Birthday Ball. There is some other misunderstandings during the Ball but imagine their surprise when they figure out that they ARE engaged. It would be easier if both of them didn't lie and told the other the truth but they had to suffer alone for weeks. They never go easy way right?🤣

Moneypenny!Gustave because I played "007 First Light" and when I've seen her outfit I was like "Gustave would look cute in this". Is Verso Bond in this AU...YES.

Yeah I should add Bond!Verso to drawing list

[maslokk]

How bad Verso's day can go? Really bad...Another one of done for Verso's Birthday Week

It's evil/corrupted! Gustave that goes few years earlier on the expedition to test prototype of lumina converter . Converter works but not how it should. Chroma gets corrupted and makes Gustave loose his mind "a little" and he starts to hear voices.

Renoir finds him and saves him because he thinks lumina converter can be useful and will help with gathering more chroma for the Paintress, and if Verso doesn't want to be by their family side he will use this kid . Replacement for Verso. So he tells Gustave the truth about canvas . So to keep his family safe he joins Renoir (he doesn't know Maelle is Alicia) …he kills expeditioners …. Just a reminder Gustave is not right in the head because corrupted lumina… Gustave and Verso have rivals relationship they usually fight. One of their fight turned into more . Hate sex, but voices is Gustave's head are quiet while they doing it. Later it's not just during sex, it's quiet being near Verso. And of course at some point Verso falls for him …and tires to help him. And here where this comic is … Year later when Maelle and Emma come with expedition 33 everything changes for Gustave and he goes against Renoir to save them, so he works with Verso. Just one more thing little Maelle was angry when Gustave decided to go on the expedition so she yelled at him "I wish you will die there"…she cries about it everyday. Emma can feel all those years that Gustave is alive.

Verso is not having great time 😹 another one done for Verso's Birthday Week

It's my Writer!Gustave brings back Verso to life, but he has to pay the consequences, I tried to write it but I'm not a writer :(

[maslokk]

Hello and welcome to lets torture Verso posts. Done it some time ago for Verso's Birthday Week

So a little context OG!Gustave died and Verso painted him in his canvas. Gustave is there from the beginning and has ability to reincarnate. SO P!Verso falls for him everytime and this drawing is prequel for this idea

When Renoir got phone call from police station to get there for his son he doesn't know what to expect. Information that Bartholdi's son died is shocking and that they suspect Verso killed him, because he was found holding his dead body is troublesome. Seeing his son all covered in blood definitely isn't something he wants to see again. At first glance Verso doesn't look hurt. He has his confidence mask on, but his eyes are red and puffy. His gaze feels empty. Ride back home is quiet. Everything seems be alright till they close door to their home. Verso collapses on his knees and pulls on his hair. "Papa he's gone..." Tears start to cover his cheeks. "I'm never going to see him again" It's first time in years that Verso's mask slips and he looks broken, like his world just ended. "Verso...it's going to be alright." " IT'S NOT...we were supposed to run from here...take Alicia with us to keep her safe but now...I...I can't... I just...Papa I love him...I loved him..." And it clicks in Renoir head. Of course Verso is in love, all the secrecy where he disappears most days, his music soft and beautiful like a love letters. He knew Bartholdi always put smile on his son's face, not a mask, real smile, so Verso being in love with him it makes sense, it's so obvious. Renoir hugs Verso that keeps on crying. They stay like that for who knows how long. Verso stands up first mumbling that he need to change and goes to his room, leaving Renoir alone. If something would happen to Aline Renoir knows he would follow after her. He's not going to let his son do that. He'll have to keep eye on him for now.

Short story by @sabaix for this. You definitely should check her AO3 and check all Verstave works. Cyberpunk!AU is soooo good🥰

Verso liked being watched.

Through viewfinders, on billboards, or on the spreads in the magazines; Verso loved being seen. Observed.

But all the eyes in the world weren't worth his, Verso's little secret admirer, who preferred to shoot through telescopic sights, not cameras, and in public, instead of private.

Verso would love to be his, to only be seen by him and him alone, to have his eyes focused only on him. Alas, his secret admirer was an elusive man, one who spent his life on rooftops, among gargoyles, one who welcomed the darkness of the night, and one who always watched but never shot.

Verso has been shot many times; in the mornings, for GQ, at noon for Vanity Fair, and in the evening for Men's Health. He was no stranger to the feeling of someone else's eyes on him. Just on him.

So when he felt it, as he made his way across the street, with his sister on his arm, Verso was delighted. A bloom opened in his chest, filling every available space with soft petals and the delicate smell of spring.

Verso looked up, his sister walked forward. It was a day like any other, quiet but full of appointments. On a skyscraper nearby, so high that it almost touched the clouds, a light shone like the reflection of a diamond. There.

Verso smirked, pleased beyond himself to be observed by the most important man in the world. And he liked to think that the man smiled in turn, as he saw Verso through his scope.

"Hello," Verso says slowly, every letter a move of his lips, knowing the other man can read it. "Dinner?"

A shot sounds in the intersection, scaring some pigeons nearby. For a heartbeat, Verso thinks the bullet lodged itself into his chest, painting his suit with a red too ferocious for a first date, but as the world calms down around him, he notices a bit of smoke coming out of a sign across the street.

See the world through new eyes. with the 'yes' a perfect, round bullet hole. Verso laughs to himself. What a ridiculous man he fell for.

Thank you very much @sabaix ♥️♥️♥️
