Here’s my favorite scrapped Dr + the reason I miss it a lot.
Warning for holy yap session
So before yumeshipping which lead me back to shifting scaramouche/wanderer was simply my comfort character. This dr was made in the peak of me shifting(heh) from yumeships to actually reality shifting via hogwarts since it was also around the time I was getting back into genshin.
It was an Au of where I was a lesser(?) Harbinger/ the weakest harbinger of all the fatui harbingers the 12th one (I thought it was 12 at the time anyways) in this au Scaramouche had been getting more and more mentally unstable, more fatigue and frustration taken out on his comrades and colleagues, refusing to cooperate with Dottore especially during checkups or experiments and even leaving into the abyss longer putting danger on himself and any others who were sent to travel with him.
This of course frustrated many other harbingers, specifically Dottore who chose this opportunity for a particular experiment he was working on which was an artificial humanoid / another puppet based off the research he gathered from studying scaramouche he initially made another puppet. This puppet was an entire mockery to scaramouche
It had fox ears and a tail like yae miko, dottore deliberately saying something like “every archon needs a pet” when he commented on it, an eerie resemblance towards niwa and the same kindness the nameless child had. It was made or not only study the puppet’s conditions in a safer way but also to see if his weakness to children could be exploited in a useful way(it could)
The new puppet would be around early teens, much like sigewinne just a personal nurse experience in on field work albeit not many and gaining experience under the guide of the knave when unable to take departure with scaramouche into the abyss, it was a very cruel concept in a way because it did work his conditions did get better just severely slow but good enough
The humanoid had a few different designs, one was more fox like and styled directly after yae miko to which was supposed to be a “scaramouches very own shrine maiden” kinda vibe, second was just a regular inazuman child or nurse and the third was a mix of inazuma and Sumeru dress culture.
The only reason why this was scrapped was because it’d have a slow burn of found family between myself and scaramouche in a father son light and he was my s/o in a different reality to which I had recently came across the notion of it being odd 😓 and I didn’t like that at all
I was pretty proud of it at first when I came up with it (I think I have old posts about it) and I do think about it a lot because it was just a super fun plot to me!! I have a few other scrapped drs if you’d like to hear about them as well 😋 lmk any thoughts or questions!! I decided it was just best to keep it as an oc plot (which is what I did after scrapping it)
