Canon Dib meets snapped Dib:

One day, Dib, Zim, Gaz, and Membrane from Canon (after the Florpus. Things between Zim and Dib have calmed once Zim accepted that his race is gone.) are transported to another world.

That world's Dib's sanity got worse the more people refused to listen or believe him about something that the WHOLE WORLD saw.

The Canon group got a brief vision of how this world is different. Membrane is horrified that his counterpart learned NOTHING. Gaz and Dib are hurt and angry on their counterparts' behalf.

When they arrive, the learn that Zim is gonna blow up the school with the class, besides Dib and Gaz, (Zim learns about Dib's feelings for his classmates and is curious about if he'll save them or not if he has nothing to lose, thus why Dib and Gaz aren't inside.) inside.

Rather than be horrified, Dib is jumping up and down in excitement at the impending explosion. (Dib and Membrane wince. {Membrane has his fair share of crappy classmates. So he gets it.} Gaz has been there rage and vindictive wise and completely understands.) Gaz is simply playing her game. (GAZ is the one to wince this time. Because her counterpart is likely drowning out her Dad's neglect and Dib's worsening sanity with games. It's what SHE did in the past before things got better.)

Canon Membrane is still working on believing the alien thing but he is starting to believe the "Zim is attacking" thing. Seeing alternate Zim about to blow up the school is helping that belief. Canon Zim is safe from Membrane's wrath because he has calmed since discovering his race's death.

Before "For the Future" came out, I came up with an idea for AU. Even then I suspected that Belos would be given a stupid death, so I came up with an alternative ending in advance. I suddenly remembered this and decided to ask what you think about it.

So, Belos is defeated. But a piece of him falls into the time pool and ends up in the past, before Day of Unity. A piece of Belos crawls to the castle and merges with Belos from the past.

Knowing how it will end, Belos decides to speed things up. As far as I remember, I was thinking that he was destroying the entire population of the Boiling Island with his own hands, but now I think the option where Day of Unity goes according to plan from beginning to end looks much more logical.

He keeps the Collector’s tablet with him until the very end to make sure that no one frees the Collector. He petrifies Luz and then kills the HexSquad. He leaves King alive, because he knows that he is a Titan. He needs a source of Titan's blood.

After making sure that all the witches who were in the covens are dead, Phillip uses the Abomatons to finish what he started. This is how children and teenagers die. After that, he throws away the Collector’s tablet and goes to the human realm, where he kills Vee and Camilla.

Standing in the middle of the blood-soaked living room, Philip thinks about what to do next. He has achieved his goal, the last victim of the witches and almost the last magical creature are now dead, their bodies are lying on the floor. The last magical creature, King, is now sleeping in his bag, drugged by magic.

He begins to explore the house and the things in it. He quickly understands how to use a computer and begins to look for the information he is interested in. He quickly learns that the witch hunt ended three centuries ago, no one believes that magic and witches are real, and witch hunters are considered bloodthirsty maniacs.

Philip doesn't know what to do. After a couple of days of living in the human realm, after reading a lot of interesting information, he returns to the demon realm and finds a time pool. He returns to the past, without King, and finds his version from this time to fuse again.

And so, the whole idea is that Philip returns to the past several times, merges with himself to avoid time paradoxes, and lives in an attempt to figure out what to do. After he found out that his goals are meaningless, he reluctantly decides that ruling the devil's spawn was more pleasant than being nobody in a world where your deeds are considered a terrible evil.

So, returning to the past once again, he cancels Day of Unity, saying that the witches upset the Titan. I don't really remember exactly what time Philip got there. Perhaps he came before the events of the Hollow Mind. Since Unity Day is canceled, this episode just doesn't happen. Hunter is still loyal to Belos.

I don't remember exactly how many times Philip goes to the past, and what exactly he does there, but the idea is that he is gradually changing, because he knows how the human realm has changed. He tries to study every possible situation, like Flowey from Undertale.

I remember for sure that one time he got into the past before Manny Noseda died. Philip cured him, because at that time he knew that Camilla is a wonderful person, and Noseda's family moved to the Boiling Isles.

Another idea is that Philip was once in Gravity Falls. And the third idea is that eventually Philip will get tired of this chronofantastic. He decides that he will not go back to the past anymore. However, Luz and Amity die, and he decides to rethink his decision. He makes grimwalkers out of their bones, seven grimwalkers out of Luz's bones, and seven grimwalkers out of Amity's bones. He plans to go back in time, erase his memory of time travel and live everything like the very first time. And the grimwalkers will have to make sure that he dies, and does not go back to the past. He uses the memory gun he took from Gravity Falls.

Returning to the events of For the Future, Luz stumbles upon a group of witches in cloaks who catch Belos. She follows them. These witches were grimwalkers mentioned above, who did not dare to let Belos die. They restore his memories and he is not happy. And Luz is in shock.

I don't remember how or why, but Belos and Luz go to another world. Due to the fact that Philip merged with his versions from the past, he did not change the past, but created new timelines. A bunch of worlds came into existence thanks to him, and time in them goes synchronously.  Like, "For the Future" is happening in all these worlds, and there are even Philips there. If I remember correctly, in the finale, Philip somehow forced all these timelines to come together into one, like in Rick and Morty.

What do you think about this concept?

I think it’s absolutely brilliant! The idea of Philip learning the futility and brutality of his own goals through their success is tragic and horrific! Combine that with his slow descent into madness as he tries to control all the variables and get the “good” ending where everyone survives, and it’s absolutely fascinating!

There are almost limitless ways this could be explored or worked upon. He could go back and try to stop himself from killing Caleb or undo the Coven System entirely! I adore the idea that he eventually becomes fond of the Hexsquad due to their position in both his downfall and his growth. It’s because of them that he does and learns the error of his ways. And, the human who has been so insistent that he’s wrong about things has turned out to be right.

He would be devastated when he started losing people and kept having to try to make things perfect again. Philip’s mental state would be so fascinating to study and monitor over this time, and I’d be mesmerized by the way that he changes as he lives through various timelines!

I mean, he’s get to grow and develop, change and live, learn, and forgive. He’d get the opportunity to make better choices, but he’s still incredibly human and makes mistakes. It would also be fascinating to watch him track what Time Pools go to where and at what time/place they are in.

And Philip wanting to settle down somewhere peaceful and forget about what happened with his time travel powers would be deeply sad. He’d be forgetting g the cause and journey that led to his growth in the first place, and it’d be a shame.

Luz would be incredibly confused by the whole situation and the vastly different lives that Philip has lived. This is a man who has done horrible things and attempted to (and, in some cases, succeeded) commit genocide. Worlds where he is good or less of an awful person wouldn’t make a lot of sense. Still, I think she’d be a bit disappointed when they had to fix the timeline. After all, he’s changed so much that he hardly seems like the man she knew before.

This is such an incredible, creative idea, Anon!!!! Thank you for sharing it with me!

@drarrymicrofic prompt: metamorphosis

Metamorphosis

“Dragons are fucking massive, Dad.” Teddy grins as they watch a Hungarian Horntail soar above them. “Can you imagine flying on one?” He laughs, “you’d probably be bloody terrified.”

“Er—yeah...” Harry grimaces. He’s beginning to think that his whole ‘gentle pastry chef, stay-at-home dad’ cover story won’t work much longer with Ted.

Malfoy says Harry should just tell him. “Really, Potter,” he smirks as they narrowly dodge several impending crucios. “Teddy’s fifteen. He’s old enough to know what we do.” He casts a strong shield around them after Harry throws out ten haphazard reductos in quick succession.

Harry grabs Malfoy’s bicep and interdimensionally apparates them back to their rendezvous spot— just as the corrupt timeline disintegrates on schedule.

Upon arrival, they slump against the cool brick of the 1952 Romanian safehouse, panting heavily. Harry takes a long swig of Anti Mind-Morph Potion, then passes the flask to Malfoy, who drinks the rest and rubs his hand over Harry’s shoulder in thanks. 

Harry grins; looks at him. “I know—I should tell Teddy.” He laughs, “He really thinks I bake treacle tarts all weekend.”

“Yeah.” Malfoy shakes his head. “You should also tell him about our little incident last month while you’re at it.”

Harry smiles sheepishly. “I didn’t know weddings in alternate dimensions were legitimate, alright?”

Malfoy smirks. “I did.”

Hermione discovers that the Veil is actually a portal to parallel universes, but one way and set to random if you don't choose input target coordinates before going through. Even knowing how to target it, the chances of finding Sirius are infinitesimal, but Harry's willing to spend his weekends searching. Hermione isn't willing to let him go alone, however.@johnburtonlee

Ngl, the bug did remind me of nega, harmless if not messed with, but can be scary if you try to kill it.
