[ ginger fitzgerald of ginger snaps (2000) by dru. canon divergent ending. film and headcanon based. private. selective. mutuals only. 21+ only. temp rules. ] other blogs: @drunivers | @claudevil | starter call. meme tag.
additional rules/warnings:
there is discussions of su*cide in the original film, although it is all hypothetical. if this comes up or there is any mention of it, it will be sparing, and it will be tagged "sui.cide //" so definitely block that tag if it helps. this is not a key component to my portrayal of ginger and not something i will be looking to mention or bring into threads, but i put this rule here just to be safe.
current verses:
i. out by sixteen. pre-movie canon, rebellious ginger and her younger sister brigitte are high school outcasts, bored to death of their picturesque suburban town. (ginger is < 16, brigitte is < 15)
ii. the beast of bailey downs. set during movie canon. brigitte is trying to find a way to undo her sister's gradual werewolf transformation, while ginger enjoys the perks of being at the top of the food chain. (ginger is 16, brigitte is 15)
iii. a canadian werewolf in america. canon divergent, post-movie main verse. brigitte and ginger are able to stop ginger's transformation on halloween night, but ginger is still a werewolf, albeit one learning to control her urges and her transformations. she still needs to wolf out and eat people occasionally, but it's not an irreversible transformation like in the film, and it's more based on her emotions/control or lack thereof than it is on the lunar cycle. in this verse, by default, ginger and brigitte are attending grad school in california (brigitte as an aspiring filmmaker and dp, ginger as an aspiring makeup/gore/sfx artist), but they can be moved around as necessary. visual inspo from this is drawn from katharine isabelle in american mary. (ginger and brigitte are adults in this verse, early 20s.)
au. call of the wild. canon-divergent, post-movie alternate verse. although ginger's transformation into a wolf is not irreversible (see above), brigitte's trust in her sister is broken after ginger killed and ate brigitte's crush during her first wolf-out. unable to reconcile with her sister, ginger flees bailey downs and begins hitchhiking her way to america, with no real plan except to get as far away as possible from the sister who turned her back on her. (ginger ranges from late teens to early twenties in this verse)
iv. the wolf woman. canon-divergent, post-movie adult verse. following verse iii, ginger is now a somewhat professional makeup/sfx artist for films and television, although her passion still lies in blood and gore. she spends most of her time in los angeles -- it's a big city, who's going to notice if a couple strangers go missing now and then? -- while brigitte is likely making indie documentaries on weird and macabre subjects. visual inspo for this is drawn from katharine isabelle in american mary & hann.ibal. (ginger and brigitte are adults in this verse, late 20s-30s.)
au. wolf in the wilderness. yellowjackets au.
au. path of the beast. baldur's gate / generic fantasy verse. ginger is a lycanthrope barbarian, traveling to baldur's gate with her sister after a so-called beast destroyed their town.
