#au ramble

Mike discovering that Ren Faire is a thing and learning secretly how to sword fight, just to invite the rest of the party to come as knights and enter the amatuer sword fighting comp for funsies-

The boys haven't seen Mike and one of the organisers (a friend of Mike's) says he's just been busy helping set up and told them to let the boys know he'd be along later.

Turns out there aren't many fighters and all of the others get knocked out by the champion who is in full armour (helmet included) as a HANDICAP because it's fucking heavy stuff trust me - practice swords though, first blood wins rules. There's a red paint/ink/powder or something on the challengers blade so it'll appear on the armour if the champion loses.

I think Dustin would be first to lose of the boys, then Will and Lucas would put up the best fight because he is the most fighter class type irl (most physical anyways as an athlete)

And after the champion clean sweeps everyone they take of their helmet and it's just Mike this whole time

And ofc it blows their minds but Will gets to see IRL Paladin Mike and he doesn't quite know what to do with himself because omg that boy is HAWT LIKE DAMN

Which means Mike's plan secretly worked bc he just wanted to be a Paladin for Will as his way of trying to woo the man he let go once, and learned it was a mistake of and is trying to fix that now ♡

Knowing Jayce had such a denial during his pregnancy with Brayden makes this image painful for me😭

Btw! I have a little question. Does Jayce and Brayden get along? I say this because of everything that happened during Jayce's pregnancy,and,thanks to the anon's task,how did Viktor and Jayce himself handle and Jayce's postpartum depression?

God I love your AU💗

JEJEJE😈 And you all don't even know the context of everything that happened before that drawing, related to Jayce's post partum depression. If I get too deep into it right now it would be spoiling everything I'm planning to write so I gotta leave that second question unanswered for the moment.

AND FOR THE FIRST QUESTION... It's complicated.

The only psychology knowledge I know professionally it's consumers psychology... BUUUT that doesn't mean I don't know some of the basics of emotional education thanks to my mother, so I gotta use what I know to explain how I see Jayce and Brayden's father/son relationship.

The first moments of life really impact on the unconscious mind, where I'm going with is that it might impact in the way you deal emotionally with the people that were there when you were a baby.

For Brayden, he didn't get to be held that much for Jayce when he was a newborn, when he needed most, and that created a emotional distance between them as he was growing up.

They don't have the typical "fighting all the time" parent/kid relationship, but in some cases when Brayden needs comfort, Jayce is not the first person he thinks of to look for it. Because deep in his unconscious mind he feels he won't get it from him!

If you are curious, he would go to Ximena or Viktor. (Ximena is Brayden's favorite person in the world)

AAAA FUCK IT, you all get a wip of Brayden and Ximena (Each kid have their favorite person and I'm making a drawing with each of them interacting)

Screw it. Life series/The Owl house.

I already have a au of this but I wanted to throw this idea out there.

I’ve had this au for a while so here’s a few characters I’ve matched (kind of):

Luz: Jimmy.

Amity: Scott. (yes Flower husbands. Sue me.)

Hunter: Martyn. (Religious guilt boi)

Eda&Lilith: Sky siblings? (Grian&Pearl)

And let’s reach! Grumbot as King, and Mumbo as the Titan!

I think an empires/Life series/Hermitcraft Owl house au would be the bomb tbh.

Omori mlb AU make my brain go brrrr

Question: how different does basil act when he's stranger/mint from his regular self and is he purposefully doin' that or does the kwammi transformation just affect his personality that much?

Glad you asked, anon! Yes, Basil's personality changes whenever he's either his civilian or his hero self, just like RW Basil and Stranger are different. Yet in a sense, they're facets of Basil, the person he really is:

Before Basil turns into a superhero, he's constantly under pressure (parents + bullying) and his only way of surviving this environment is by being overly nice, overly modest. He's trying to stay as unnoticed as possible, while having the best grades and participating in a way to make him look smarter than everyone else. And that irritates a lot of people, because as a results he's perceived as "fake". He has to be that perfect obedient son for his parents; as a result he's really struggling to even know what is his real self.

Being Catmint is really liberating to him. He can be negative, he can be bad mouthed. He can be obnoxious... And yeah, he tries to play it cool. Yet, it doesn't feel like his true self yet.

At the end of the day, it's really his friendship with Sunny/ partnership with Ladybug that helps him through that. When he met Sunny, he noticed that his overly polite self wasn't what Sunny found endearing about him. It was his little quirks he didn't even know he had before, it was his centers of interests, and yeah, his flaws. He noticed that it's exactly what made him love Sunny as a friend and as a crush: He's just a dude. He's just a dude who likes art.

For Ladybug: He realised he doesn't have bare everything by himself. He realised that he can be vulnerable, he can show kindness without the fear of getting percieved as weak. And yeah, he realised he can trust Ladybug.

While he always tried to push Ladybug away, he learnt that actually, there's nothing wrong with camaraderie at work (and god knows how if Ladybug didn't have a crush on Catmint, he definitely wouldn't have the patience to deal with that angsty boy... Or maybe yes, IDK)

So yeah! He's kinda doing it on purpose. Thank you for the ask, anon! Tell me what you think!

@humangerbil thanks for enabling me, here's a ramble about the modern Steve in 80s Hawkins idea:

Steve's parents are still pretty damn absent but they make up for it one year by just?? Giving him a house?? He's like barely 18 but now he's a homeowner in some little town outside Indianapolis so that's cool he guesses

He goes to Hawkins and sees the house that hasn't changed since the 80s (the plaid room nearly traumatizes him) but it's the first space that's really his so he does kinda like it

Anyway after vibing around the house for a bit, he walks around and ends up at the library and learns Hawkins history including a bunch of kids that just died or disappeared mysteriously in the 80s, a huge earthquake, and serial killer Eddie Munson but something about it all makes him feel like it's not quite right, but that's in the 80s and there's nothing he can do about it now

Cue some Upside Down bullshit that pulls him into the 80s but he doesn't know at first because the house is Like That except he goes outside to find a vintage Beemer and joy rides around, ends up at the arcade, overhears some kids talking about what has to be DnD right and that's cool these days so he adds opinions or something

He meets Eddie Munson later and is like "oh, the hot serial killer" and Eddie is like "I'm sorry what" and so it goes from there

It includes a lot of memes, Steve being openly bi like a modern guy but also trying to deal with, like, 80s attitudes toward it but also flirting with Eddie. He happens to have his phone and it still works so he can play music and TV and movies (legally downloaded he swears ;P ) and I just think Eddie would be soooooo into Fall Out Boy and MCR sue me lmao

We also just get, like, Steve with that modern nihilism and young adult anger at the world (he realizes Reagan is president and has a brief but serious moment where he considers assassination) that he can finally take out on tangible things like monsters and he's never felt more alive and happy than in 80s Hawkins with a bunch of kids who are supposed to die and

Oh, yeah, he should fix that too, time line or fabric of space be damned

Seeing as I’ve been too busy to actually write this for way too long now, I am now going to subject everyone in the general vicinity to my unapologetic Elements HNAU stuff cuz it needs out of my brain.

So, starting with the basics:

There are four elements. Fire, Water, Air, and Earth (yes, ATLA style (But it’s actually more inspired by alchemy don’t @ me). Characters with elements are known as “Golems”, constructed from their elements. For example, Theodore Peterson’s element is fire, so he is a Fire Golem. Golems can also construct other golems, either from themselves or from new magic and the element on it’s own. It’s usually easier to build one using their own materials, but it does take some of their magic away.

As well as this, elements can combine. The degree to which they combine varies between golems and what golems construct them, but this is essentially how you get “crossbreed” golems. If anyone’s played Dragon Mania, it’s kinda like that. Aaron is a Lava Golem, which means his constructors had to be a Fire Golem and an Earth Golem (Theo and Diane). The same goes for his sister, but Aaron is notably more segmented than Mya, whose entire body is made of lava, while Aaron’s limbs are rock and his hair is flames.

Below I’ll list everyone’s elements:

Aaron: Lava (Earth x Fire)

Mya: Lava

Nicky: Ice (Air x Water)

Trinity: Dust (Earth x Air)

Enzo: Water (Constructed with original magic)

Maritza: Mud (Earth x Water)

Ivan: Air

Delroy: Smoke (Fire x Air)

Fitch: Steam (Fire x Water)

Mr. Peterson: Fire

Mrs. Peterson: Earth

Mr. Roth: Air

Mrs. Roth: Water

This list is not done this is just all I had the patience to write atm

ok ok ok so new AU idea ramble incoming I'm tossing under the cut!!!!

So Y/N is in like a bad accident as a child that renders them mute and dealing with life-long chronic stuff, right? So they function and cope through it growing up but as they get older, things get a bit more difficult for them to care for themselves properly, plus since they're mute they have to use sign language. Family isn't an option and they have a close friend that helps them often but Y/N hates to ask for help.

One day Y/N and their friend are like out and about at a kind-of flea market type of thing, and come across this badly damaged robot (DCA) that someone is selling, a little bit expensive but they're like badly damaged and rusted. Limbs missing and hardware broken beyond repair. Y/N jokes about getting them to have as a nice companion and help them out but moves on. Their friend, caring about Y/N and being a bit tech savvy decides to buy it as a gift and surprise Y/N, thinking they could both help fix them up together.

Y/N and their friend slowly repair the boys and get them some-what functional. But unfortunately they end up having a broken voice box so Y/N and the boys have a bit of a hard time communicating but they grow to be friends despite that over time.

Of course the entire time this is going on, Sun and Moon have no memories about the daycare, or the pizzaplex, since their memory has been wiped (and it's obvious they probably have been decommissioned but also Y/N and their friend have never heard of anything Fazbear Entertainment related either). The boys start remembering fragments of memories, which then leads to them to slowly putting them together like a puzzle and unlocking the remnants of the virus still in their system. 😌✨
