Wip from my new one-shot

Here a wip from my new one-shot which is center in Dante!!!

I know Dante probably had a shirt before the events of DMC3, because ya know. He was just hanging out in his home before demons attacked and the place got wrecked (Thanks Vergil, as if Dante needed to pay for more things), and much like many of us, shirtless home alone time is very important.

But I will also look at the new Netflix Anime Dante, who I hope with all my heart is Tony RedGrave, and his shirt and goofy little suspenders.

And I will imagine Grue going up to a shirtless teen Dante one day and shoving some old clothes in his face telling him to put a damn shirt on.

I got thinking of the way characters would hug, and well, here’s my HCs:

Dante would either give awkward hugs or long warm hugs like it’s the last time (that’s not fully my HC, I saw a post by @tianhai03 that said it first, and it’s so true ;; )

Vergil would awkwardly hug but because he doesn’t fully know how to go about it and it’s a foreign feeling, but it can be felt that he likes it and craves it (he would never admit it tho).

Lady depending on who she hugs, could be like “neutral”? Idk how to describe it my bad jahsja or playful hug, and if she hugs Dante and/or Trish I feel sometimes she would also squish them.

Trish generally speaking would be an awkward hug but in a she doesn’t mind it but she doesn’t crave it kinda way. With close people she could add a pat pat.

Nero despite his bad boy persona, would definitely give really soft hugs, wether is awkward or comforting or smth else, it’d still be soft.

Kyrie would give the softest hugs and very comforting as well.

Nico would be like pat pat bro kinda way, playful or hard hugs.

V would give a ‘please don’t let go’ kinda hug, maybe still awkward but more honest about it than as Vergil.

Patty would give soft hugs or squish hugs, no in between.

Credo might only hug Kyrie and Nero, and I feel like it’d be a very stiff hug.

Grue would give strong hugs and pat pat.

Nell Goldstein would give an insult and then give the softest caring hug.

Morrison and Enzo I feel like wouldn’t hug, at least not often and it’d still be more pat pat than anything else.

Lucia would like to give big hugs but she doesn’t fully feel worthy of doing that. In a spur of emotion she’d do it although afterwards might feel a bit weird about it.

dmc fic idea

- grue gets thrown through time to 6 months after dmc5 in Redgrave city

- gets found in the december snow by a resident who helps him get to Bobby's cellar (now grues cellar)

- Morrison and nero are there

- sees nero from behind thinks it's Tony

- nero's like "who the fuck is Tony"

- "Tony Redgrave"

- "oh you mean Dante"

- " who the fuck is Dante?"

- grue introduces himself and reunites with his daughters

- Morrison recognizes him as working with Tony

- they find out he's time traveled

- nero tries calling the shop "of course he forgot to pay his phone bill again"

- feel free to add more

Theory? feel free to reblog with counterarguments.

I'm not saying that it was Just Grue's death that sent Dante into a spiral, but Imagine if the dmc1 novel takes place after dmc3, which I think it does, considering the last page is just the opening to dmc1.

Dante would have gone as Tony from the DMC3 manga to DMC1, explaining both him telling Enzo to shut the fuck up when the guy called him 'Dante' and the look and way his voice drops when Arkham called him 'Dante'. It would also explain his transition from the usual jobs to strictly supernatural jobs. the other mercenaries simply can't do it, excluding those in the know.

Seeing as Vergil opened the gate to hell, I could see a whole 'monster hunting' business booming, building the town around them. You have to remember, Nero's generation is the first one after the last big battle between the human world and the demon world. DMC is could have very easily been post-apocalyptic, but I'll argue that's why some of the older forms of technology stayed around, durable, and full of redundancies, if one form of communication gives out, there are others. That's not to mention the ease of repair. That's probably why Nico's van is like that.

In this logic and timeline Dante's life would be like this:

Mom, Dad, Vergil-> Mom, Vergil-> Mom, Dad, Vergil gone-> change name-> Grow up with Enzo, Nell, and Morrison protecting him -> Get shop, home-> Vergil back-> Vergil gone again-> meet Grue-> Have family again-> lose family again-> change name back-> be unable to kill the thing that keeps killing family, can only lock it away-> make friends-> friends in and out of life-> get nephew? get nephew-> Vergil's back again

This poor man.

and from "Lose family again" onwards he is essentially paying child support for Grue's surviving kids. Making sure they were not left behind like Vergil was. Eventually, Morrison got them jobs that allowed them to buy the Bar that their father loved, mirroring Dante in a way. By now I'm assuming about 15 years passed since their father and sister, Jessica, died, yet they were protected with the truth that demons and monsters are why their family broke up.

These girls would be about 21-25, filling the age gap between Patty and Nero, so still being part of that new generation. Morrison still plans to keep it that way, given that look he gives V. In Morrison's defense, V was giving off Gilver vibes from the first goddamn trailer and he's not gonna let family history repeat himself.

It should be noted that the youngest of Grue's daughters, Nesty, is probably too young to remember when Tony was part of their family and doesn't get that Tony loved them and blames Dante for everything, while the middle oldest daughter, Tiki, does remember Tony and knows he didn't break the family.

So Dante/Tony has a lot of people going in and out of his life, usually very bloodily. This man live 3 lifetimes in the span of 45 years. So while I do not think that the deaths of Grue and Jessica are what solely broke Dante, If you add Mundas 'killing' his brother and Trish again, I'd say that did, especially if we include the fact that Dante could not kill Mundus at the time and he could break free at a moment's notice, which could play into why Dante jumped into hell because "I've lost my family 3 goddamn times I've reached my goddamn limit."
