To answer the question: Yes I am still alive, had to put the fic aside for a while so I could start editing it without wanting to never write again while doing so! I'm working on it though and I will finish it, the fic is very dear to me <3
you're alive!!! I was watching this interview where nico so delicately tries to defend lewis while lewis was not showing him that same grace in the media and was thinking ahhhh I need to read that fic that anon was talking about...
this is the interview if you wanna watch it and get inspo <3 or reinvigorated with righteousness to get lewis to grovel
ofc, no pressure. take your time. I'm cheering you on! i remember my anons and wonder what happen to them when they disappear 🥹 bidded and bedded au anon I cared you too
When Quackity remembers everything, he finds that the world has changed so that he likes things as they are. He killed his past self once, he can do it again. But Dream’s acting suspicious, now that he knows. (Dream doesn’t KNOW that Quackity knows, but the way that the man’s gaze becomes more scrutinizing, the way that he picks up on things previously left unseen — it sets the hair on the back of his neck on end.)
When Sam remembers everything, he has no choice but to see it as Correct, because he is a good person, right? Maybe he falls into old habits. Maybe he decides that Dream seems to be behaving himself for the moment, but as soon as Dream steps out of line it might be time for a refresher. (I don’t know how Sam would react actually, if he forgot everything from S1, developed a new life and then regained all he had lost. Thoughts?)
(Also feel free to brainrot with me, by all means. …Anyone?)
ooh, I think c!Quackity would be extremely afraid but unwilling to kick a potential hornet’s nest. He’d be paranoid about Dream recovering his memories and coming for vengeance. Does this make him try to eliminate Dream proactively? Or does he simply avoid Dream as much as possible? Perhaps the latter. A new reinvention of self. Perhaps the former: maybe he can reinvent but he doesn’t think Dream can.
c!Sam, re-memoried, is shattered. He failed. Everything he did failed. He can’t capture Dream, not by himself, and besides, everyone thinks Dream is good now. …everyone thinks Sam is good too… he can make pies for everyone again, maybe… If he arrested Dream, what would he even do? The prison is gone. He can’t be the warden without it. Maybe the best he can do is to be everyone’s protector. He can watch out for Tommy. He can step in early when Dream starts to go sour.
I was so Happy that there was no Amnesia arc. But now I am not 😭😭
i mean people raised valid point about the eye problem / potential brain injury sustained from when she’s hit her head after that guy threw her across and she slammed her head on the banister.
i am a professional clown and even i have to say this is sounding plausible, normally i reject theories unless they’re my own 🙃but with this one she does have an absent look and thyme is suspiciously watching her worried she’s unable to see him and that she’s sort of having issues with cutting the bushes. idk.
if we get gorya amnesia rather than thyme’s than wtf is this about:
who’s gonna get amnesia tell me immediately i need to mentally prepare for pain.
what if reader was too close to the bridge at the moment of the explosion and ended up "disappearing" in the forest :
1) only to be found by former-saviors, but reader has memory loss and decides to stay with saviors til she can remember, but ends up sticking around even after remembering cause idk they threaten her or smthg (and she ends up going with Carol when she gets her ring back like the boss she is)
2) reader doesn't forget anything but gets kidnapped by saviors and it ends up same as 1)
Or 3) reader has memory loss, someone random takes her in to help her cause walkers around and stuff, and when she remembers after years she decides to go back to Alexandria/the Kingdom/ Hilltop (whichever fits and is closer ig)
That would make Daryl be his lonely self again and he'd go looking for both the reader and Rick then (and for drama purpose we can say he sees a walker who looks like the reader but he isn't 100% sure cause walker is burned bc y'know bridge explosion but yeah) and so he could still have this relationship with Leah with reader alive ? And they could still end up together and stuff ? Also fluffy emotional back together and hugs and cuddles cause they've missed each other so much (and DOG BBY !!!)
(I haven't seen the episode(s) where Daryl and Leah are together so idk if that could actually work but meh changing details to make our own canonverse so we can simp is not something I'll ever stop doing xhsoxj)
okay omg bestie i’m pouncing on the third idea, but also consider
reader gets amnesia from falling from the bridge (kdrama type beat, fully soundtracked) but someone saves her and nurses her back to health and along the timeline she becomes dog’s owner because she takes in a pregnant dog mother. daryl and reader were pining after each other for months and when the bridge blows, daryl looks for rick and reader for months, heartbroken and distraught. eventually, on one of his searches, a cute little puppy crosses his path and he follows him to his owner. there’s no music, just the sound of his steps as he enters a clearing, and someone familiar makes their way out from behind a couple of trees, calling out to (who he can only assume) is the dog he currently has in his arms.
it takes a second for him to register that it’s the reader, and when he does, he runs to her full force (think carol and terminus), but because reader has no fucking clue who he is, she breaks away from him which leaves him almost crying. he asks her whats up and apologizes over and over and over again for not finding her sooner, and she’s like??? i don’t know you?? and he actually starts to cry because what the hell happened?
long story short, daryl tries his best to pursue reader (with the fish) but he’s bad at it, and eventually, he stops trying to pursue her romantically and they settle back into just being friends. but because this is my fantasy, they fall in love all over again (SOULMATES !!!) and have kids and live happily ever after. ig leah doesn’t exist in this timeline, but it is My Reality and reality can be whatever i want it to be.
