I definitely want to know more about this reversal au!
sorry its so long !! i love this au
So basically in this AU, the losers club is are misfit space demons in the form of a circus group, and penny is just an ordinary man. This AU takes place in the 80s/It (2017) timeline
The demon kids feed on the dissatisfaction that starts to grow in adults as they get stuck into the routines of their life (hence why they usually prey on office workers as opposed to like more stimulating jobs.) from afar and when they’ve exhausted that food source, they lure in adult with their prey’s subconscious parental instincts by pretending to be in danger to gain trust and finish the job.
Pendleton Wise, or Penny for short, has been in Derry, Maine for a few years now. Other than working a 9-5 office job, he doesn’t go out much and his neighbors like to gossip about his homes state. Penny has hoarding tendencies (think pennywise’s lair thing) and never talks to peers or coworkers unless he has to. On top of this, he tends to have an overactive imagination.
Bill is the ringmaster and he mainly plans out attacks. He can get into your head and become your subconscious, controlling your actions.
Ben is the juggler and arguably the most sympathetic of the group. His aim is more than perfect and his juggling balls can catch on fire. He can also displace his head and juggle that too.
Stan is the mime and only opens his mouth to eat, he can make invisible barriers (walls, etc.) to slow down or block in prey.
Bev is the trapeze artist and she can turn invisible and she has the most physical strength but also works hard and has the most control when around in public.
Mike is the beast tamer and he can summon the help of multiple demons who usually take the form of lions (for the circus aesthetic??? Perhaps,, but they aren’t real lions and that’s all that matters to me)
And richie and eddie perform acrobatics with a sun and moon motif. They are the tricksters of the group and their ribbons can become animated (forming into snakes at times) and contain prey.
Georgie is the clown and while the others have adapted and matured to have some composure in public, georgie is impulsive and bitey.
On penny’s way home one night, he found a child hiding around his drain pipes. Penny, wanting to help tried to ask him if he knew where his parents were and if he knew his family’s phone number. Because of Penny’s overactive imagination, he wasn’t prone to getting stuck in the daily routine because he always found small joy/put care in everything he did. When georgie couldn’t smell the dissatisfaction, he was too hungry and decided to attack anyways. Penny managed to get away (losing a finger in the process) and now the circus is after him to clean up georgies mess. Sometimes even just taunting and terrorizing him from day to day.
