#fire!hiro

[bh6-au-ideas]

Sunfire AU where Hiro's captured and experimented on and he escapes by melting through the metal room he was kept in. Then, although he can't remember much, he ends up at the Lucky Cat. It takes days for the drug interfering with his memory to work its way out of his system, so there is a lot of angst and then he starts to remember. It's only when Baymax is working well enough to scan him that the brothers realise why Hiro's memory is so spotty and why the stuff he remembers is so random.

Bonus for the sunfire Hiro thing I sent in yesterday: Hiro is also on a related drug that mucks with his short to long term memory conversion so he only has five minutes of memory. After the fiftieth time he asks the SAME QUESTION Tadashi just printed out a thing with all the questions he kept asking and their answers on it. That drug goes through his system faster so he can actually form memories properly by midway through Day Two of being back

Oh god, I am fighting healthcare mode SO VERY HARD right now. Because MEDICATIONS THAT’S MY THING MEDS MEDS YEEEESSS.

Okay, now that that’s out of the way. I wonder if Hiro actually found his way to the Lucky Cat by chance? Or if the drug only affects certain kinds of memory. He might not remember his own name or who Baymax and the others are, but the drug can’t eliminate his muscle memory, so the moment he hits the streets his feet are already carrying him home.

And THAT’S what convinces him that he can trust Tadashi and his friends. Because while he might see these people as strangers, somehow he already knows where this Aunt Cass person keeps the spoons in the kitchen. Or which shelf in the garage lab has the textbook on mechanical engineering. Or exactly how their cat likes to be scratched under the chin.

He learns pretty quickly (based on Tadashi’s exasperation and the print out) that his memories might be messed up, but his muscle memory is helping to keep him calm. Because while his mind might not remember, his body sure does.

Aaaaand as the memory loss is a direct cause of the drug, it’ll wear off eventually based on the drug’s half-life and NO BAD MEDICINE BRAIN. BAD. NO SCIENCING THE AU.

Frozen AU

Tadashi’s the Ice Prince and Hiro’s the Pyromaniac Prince. Both were locked up for the safety of their constituents. The Emperor and the Empress died so naturally, Tadashi becomes the Emperor. He becomes the ruthless Emperor that everyone understands, because everyone knew of his situation. Hiro is the rebellious little shit.

But when they were outside the throne room, the Hamada brothers become as childish as three year olds. Playing with snow and fire. If something caught fire. Tadashi’s there to extinguish it.

Then came a time Queen Elsa and her sister Princess Anna visit. Thinking of the worst, Tadashi battles for the throne, for his throne and Elsa’s there confused, he was just there to visit the scenery and maybe make some alliances.

(I’m...a bit confused? So if Tadashi’s ruthless, that means he’s the badguy in this AU, right? I mean he does kind of attack Elsa out of nowhere

Can’t blame Elsa for being confused, but if she’s up against Tadashi, someone who’s been using his ice powers freely since childhood, and Hiro who controls FIRE, I think she’s in a fair bit of trouble)

Yes! I was intending Hiro to be Callaghan's success, which is why I wrote the ending as I did :D I'm glad you saw that, in some way. And Tadashi's gonna flip when he finds out Hiro was actually alive.

Yup. But he’s gonna flip even MORE when he finds out Hiro’s also got POWERS now.

Because let’s face it, there’s no way Hiro WOULDN’T have powers. But oh god, what if this is another reverse!Sunfire AU where it’s Hiro with the fire powers? Imagine how traumatized they’d both be. And considering Tadashi was already emotionally on edge enough to trap his former professor in his own office and cause a lockdown, maybe that would be the final push towards driving him over the edge...

Alright so there's SUnfire!Tadashi Aus and Hiro ran into the fire AUs. Why not a mashup? What if Hiro ran into the fire and as a result he became Sunfire instead of Tadashi?

On the one hand, heck yes role reversal AUs. On the other hand HIRO WITH FIRE POWERS OH MY GOD WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE.

Although in all honesty, I think between the two Hamada brothers, Hiro would actually be the one who would handle suddenly having fire superpowers a bit better. I think Tadashi would be very fixated on how dangerous his powers might be, and he’d be terrified of them because whats if he hurt someone? Whereas I think Hiro would take one look at his fire powers and instantly start trying to figure out their applications. While I don’t think he’d discard the safety risks completely from his mind, I think they would just take a back seat to experimenting with all the cool new things he could do.

So yeah. I think Sunfire!Tadashi is an awesome AU idea full of angst potential and Tadashi trying to push everyone away so that he doesn’t hurt anyone, but a Sunfire!Hiro AU would basically just consist of Tadashi chasing after a cackling Hiro, with the team following behind putting out all the literal fires Hiro is setting on the city, with the lovely soundtrack of yakkity sax playing in the background.
