okay so here’s the crappy Daniel/Blake backstory
Warning: Kinda long, violence, profanity
okay this is in universe D7, otherwise known as the corrupt universe.
for context here, we gotta explain what bin done happened.
so basically it starts out as the normal universe but what’s this? Axphiel is like “Alright I’m done with all your guys’ shit (specifically Android himself) and guess what? I’m the main antagonist now.” and then Ax slowly corrupts the main characters one by one until it gets to the main main character Shift (who literally just looks like Ax because Ax was originally a clone or something)
so yeah Axphiel really like guns okay? and then she makes a special bullet with a metal called Daem (and upon further research i found out that is an organization) which pretty much looks like scrap metal but is extremely dangerous to Demons (killing Simon, a half-demon OC) but can also heal Nymns (which is a zombie immortal type thing that Axphiel is) so that means if Ax gets shot she’ll only get stronger. But when shot at a human it causes Deprathy (a fun little virus sorta in between tetanus and cancer) and depending on who you are, the faster/slower it spreads. It can also cause insanity, which is pretty important.
so anyway, Shift meets up with Daniel, and since uh oh, Axphiel is a sadistic bitch and killed a shit ton of people, including most of Daniel’s family, Shift kinda just adopts him sorta-
so yeah since Daniel’s 12 at the time he’s mostly traumatized (y a y) so yeah.
then they stop most of the Corrupts (The other corrupted main OCs) and the only sane “Corrupt” isn’t actually a Corrupt, just Jace, who died and Andrew (Android) was reincarnated by (not as, but by) and yeah they don’t actually fight, but become good with each other and he just kinda stops.
but oh no whats this? turns out Axphiel shot Shift with one of the bullets a long time ago and guess who has Deprathy now? so yeah now Shift’s pissed and suddenly realizes that Daniel’s Blake and sees the similarities (this will be explained) and convinces the Corrupts that were recently good with him now turn against him because they all hate Blake (what a surprise!) oh yeah and Ax officially died-
(note that there were 3 possible outcomes but they got the worst one making the universe D7-3)
so yeah the actual Blake in that universe is like, “hey Daniel didn’t do anything that was my fault so stop attacking him” and Shift’s still pissed at him and wanna know a fun fact? Shift had to cut off their hand to stop Deprathy from spreading but boy oh boy that backfired and they had to replace it with a scrap metal hand that is h i g h l y dangerous and will cut anything it touches.
so guess what gets cut here? Blake’s throat :)
okay moving back to Daniel, they manage to stop Shift but also get their hand cut from the scrap metal hand and wait- that’s not scrap metal that’s D a e m-
Daniel already knew about how it could be stopped but was hesitant to cut off his own hand and a little too hesitant because by the time he cut it and bandaged it up while screaming like Bloody Mary, the Deprathy had already spread. but it didn’t spread that much.
so badda bing badda boom, Daniel’s back to being around actual people again, and goes to school again (because that’s what you do when you’re 14-15 years old) and eventually, is done with everything. Then after school, go back to the ruined house that used to be the main group’s, switch up their sweatshirt, and they’re not Daniel anymore. that’s right, Blake spawns in and just takes control, and he starts out as True!Blake, the cold-hearted murderer, and it stays like that for a while.
guess what Blake learns what to do? universe, space, and time travel my boys. so he goes to a different universe and back 20 years when he’s like 22 or something-
yeah okay so Jace is still alive, and Blake kills and Daniel is sad and p i s s e d so he finally gets some control. next thing you know, Shift also exists there and is c h i l d so Daniel manages to gain most control and helps Shift a bit and yeah now that relationship happened and Blake died down to a regular Blake and no longer a murderer guy.
then this also could’ve happened and the universe repeated itself, becoming D7-3 again.
I might draw the AU characters tonight or something idk yet-
but also thanks if you got this far and to see who’s the people who actually bothered to read this thing, reply to this post with “marinara”
