God I fell out of the FAHC fandom a while back but the crew debating interrogation techniques and Fredo confidently comes out with his "you jerk a man off he'll tell you anything and you get a meal" and the crew as one turn to look at Trevor who is trying to slide under the table "IS THAT HOW FREDO FIRST FOUND OUT WHERE OUT HIDEOUT WAS?!?" "And where did you take him for a meal afterwards?" "NOT NOW MATT"
OMMMFGGGG YES that's so perfect okmgg!!! Now the crew knows exactly why Alfredo found their hideout and why Trevor had to go into a business meeting so suddenly while there was a well known sniper at their door. Oh my god that's terrific.
So What do you think would be each persona character's (from 3,4 and 5) main partner pokemon?
Hi!
Everyone?! I didn’t thought yet, I’m still (slowly) working on my AU and aside Yusuke and somewhat Kanji, I only really decided on (most of) the P3 cast. These are the ones 100% sure so far (some still didn’t evolved yet):
- Minato/Makoto: Charizard Y
- Minako/Hamuko: Charizard X
- Akihiko: Electivire (sorry Hitmonchan fans, have too many AUs that use it already)
- Mitsuru: Empoleon
- Junpei: Farfetch’d
- Fuuka: Florges
- Yukari: Decidueye
- Yusuke: Corphish
- Kanji: Incineroar
- Koromaru is a albino Rockruff
I'm so proud of the Red Web boys for going independent, I can't wait for more details because I plan to support the hell out of them
Oh me too anon me TOO!!! It's such a huge relief to know that RW is coming back and we'll be able to support RW directly now. I can't wait to throw my money at them!! Also can't wait to see what they do with their new found independence now :3
okay your ask inspired me so more AH asks for you: 1, 5, 8, 25, 34, 48, 51!! <3
Thank you for the questions Emrys :3
1) How did you get into AH?
Already answered, but I got into them by seeing a video somebody made on youtube with a bunch of other fandoms that were popular on Tumblr in 2014.
5) Favorite team?
Whatever the hell team name Trevor and Alfredo have now (tho Team Nice Dynamite is always right behind them in my heart)
8) Favorite AU?
Hmm favorite AU would have to be the Fake AH Crew AU just because of all the memories I have of messing around in that AU and all the great content that people have created using that AU. There's just so much to do when the characters you're playing with are literal criminals.
25) Has a video or specific moment ever made you emotional?
Not sure if this is for like sad emotional or happy emotional or whatever, but the first video I can remember off the top of my head that made me emotional in the sad way was when Meg had to host The Know after Monty passed away.
34) Have you seen the musical?
Yep I have! Watched the whole thing when it was mixed with the GTA video.
48) If you have one, who’s your favorite fic author or fan artist?
OOoohhh boy do I *cracks knuckles*
Since I know I can't narrow this down to like one author and artist I'm just gonna do a handful of the large amount of people that have created some of my favorite works and inspired me/influenced me with how I write.
So author wise I have to first give it up for @confusedeevee who without her I would most likely not be writing AH fanfic like I am today, plus she's an excellent beta, amazing writing partner and always helps me brainstorm when I need it and will listen to me rant and rave about all my au ideas even tho it's probably 3 am for her :') and her fics are out of this world, please go read them.
Next is @futureboy LIGHT OF MY FUCKING LIFE who fed (and continues to feed tbh) my alfreyco cravings and has some of the best written dialogue out there and a head full of incredible ideas when it comes to writing! They just have some of the best writing out there and they're honestly killing it with the ST fics right now.
And since we're talking about Alfreyco (because how could we not am i right??) @jusst-you-wait is honestly really to blame for me still writing AH fic to this day, because this lovely alfreyco obsession of mine started when I read her Fake AH fic about Trevor and Alfredo investigating some abandoned building for Geoff and that's all she wrote. Also one of the best hype mans out there and such a great writer!
And I can't forget @shadeofazmeinya and @sorcererinthestars who also have some of the best fics out there in my opinion. And tbh I included both of them in one thing because one is not far from the other when it comes to fics and tumblr and there places in my HEART! Love these two so much and both have them have produced such fantastic work in this fandom and appreciate that every single DAY.
Ok now with artists unfortunately there aren't as many as there used to be in the ye olden days of the fandom, but that doesn't mean we don't have some excellent artists still!
Firstly is @keeningthoughts who without them I would not have the lovely alfreyco outlast fanart that I cry over almost daily and would not have known the joys of being in a server dedicated to a podcast co-lead by two very silly boys. Clay, your everchanging art style and the art you've drawn, no matter how silly, have always made me so happy when i see them on here or twitter :3
And then @ursifors who has created some of the most awesome art in this fandom. Just the way you draw the AH members (and Jeremy lbr) is so incredible and fun to look at. Your shading and the way you draw expressions are always the best. Like the way you nail people's faces is just 👌👌👌👌
51) Any videos, series, podcasts, etc. you’d recommend to new fans?
Would definitely recommend Red Web (how can I not?) if you're into spooky things and conspiracy theories, but for general AH stuff I would recommend Off Topic because that is always a good, tho sometimes chaotic, way to get a feel for the vibes at AH. As for videos, any Between the Games and Shenanigans videos are always great to watch. Series wise, there are always MC and GTA videos, which are CLASSICS even if they're older and Play Pals which is 👌. Always recommend those. Some more recent ones would be GMOD and 7 days to die. Also the Rage Quit anniversary video they came out like two weeks ago. That was an excellent video.
I could get revenge and ask what headcanons you have for soapghost, but if you don’t do headcanons, give us some fic recs? (/pos bc I love writing headcanons and it’s made my day to get your asks.
Oh man how the turns have tabled!! I've only been into this ship/fandom for like a month or so now?? But I think I can pull off some headcanons :3 I've been reading too much to NOT have any (also you know I'm totally gonna ask you for some fic recs because your taste is 👌👌👌)
So I guess here's some soapghost headcanons that I've accumulated over the little time i've been here :D (put under read more because this is a bit on the long side)
Those two get matching tattoos after they retire from the service, like at least two sets of different tattoos (one on their hearts and another set on their ring fingers), and tbh I think they get one set while they're still on service. That particular one, I think, would be the tattoo idea where they have each other's names on the other's ring finger. Just something small and simple, nothing too big to draw other people's attention but enough to remind them of each other when they're not together (like being split up or on a separate mission).
Idk if this is canon in the reboot but Johnny loves drawing and loves to sketch out some sort of scene from the places they've been around the world. Whether it's just the sketch of a flower he saw or some moment he saw in one of the towns they've passed through. But his favorite thing.. that man's favorite thing to draw unfortunately just happens to be his lieutenant's eyes. And this is before they're an established thing or have even talked about their feelings with each other. So he’s sneaking glances, and honestly, can you blame him? It's the only way Soap's got any idea of what's going on in Ghost's head is by looking at his eyes. I mean he's s looking at them quite a bit when they're talking so can u blame him? (this is also because I think it would be really fun to draw Ghost's eyes and I just haven't had the chance too) I also think Ghost's eyes look like how umikochan on Twitter draws them. All dark but with the pretty white lashes :3
Simon's nervous when Johnny first invites him to meet his family. The two of them have been together for a few months, and it probably happens over Christmas. And Simon isn't really used to a traditional family setting? Lord knows he didn't have one when he was a kid, but being around the family dynamic of the 141 has helped him a bit with that. So when he does meet the Mactavish family, he's just this mass of well-concealed nerves and probably would unravel if it weren't for Johnny's hand in his. But meeting them goes so much better than Simon could hope, and by the end of the night when the pair are leaving, he's leaving as an honorary Mactavish. Johnny's mom explained it was the least she could do after seeing how much he cares for (and has cared for) Johnny. And they want him back for the next family gathering!
They both have nightmares, but they usually deal with them in different ways. Ghost will wake up suddenly, but not loudly. He tends to tense up and just breathe through whatever nightmare he just had (because thats what hes traoned himself to do over the years). While Soap is more the one who sits up fully in bed and has his feet on the floor in an instant just to keep him grounded from whatever nightmare just hit him. Of course, when the two start sleeping in the same bed, they stop having to deal with it on their own. Like magic, even if he's dead asleep, if Ghost has a nightmare and does his whole tense bit, then Soap is right there rolling over and cocooning Ghost in arms and legs. It makes Ghost feel safe and confined, like how his mask makes him feel when he wears it. If Soaps awake though or is woken up by Ghost then he'll usually ask if Ghost wants to talk about it and if he does then they do and if he doesn't then they go back to bed, but Soap won't fall asleep before he knows Ghost has fallen back to sleep. And with Soap, even if Ghost has become a little more of a heavy sleeper now that he sleeps with someone he trusts, Ghost is usually soon to follow with a warm hand, the man's a fuckin space heater, on Soap's shoulder and is pulling the man back down after they've talked, if Soap wants to obvi, and just has Soap lay against his chest. The rhythm of his heartbeat can usually lull Soap back into sleep. Unless it's a particularly bad one, then Ghost is up making tea for the both of them and talking about whatever they feel, like from soccer to even weird, not so scary dreams they've had in the past.
I feel like Ghost really likes reading. It's something he can do that's quiet, and it can take his mind off of things (if the book is good enough, which it usually is). Sometimes Johnny will try and read with him, but he's usually doing something with his hands, like drawing or tinkering with something mechanical or playing some kind of video game. I feel like Soap would be into action/adventure type games like Uncharted or Jak and Daxter. (soapghost treasure hunter au anyone 👀👀??)
This one is entirely self indulgent, but I would think that once Soap and Ghost are out of the service and living together they find a house with a big bathtub, big enough for the two of them. And on particularly cold days when their joints are aching from age and overuse or just when they feel like it, the two will take a long, hot bath together and just enjoy the comfort of being with each other in a basin of hot water. There's definitely back washing and hair washing and soft, intimate (aka very cute and lovey dovey) kisses. And they're just domestic and happy 🥺🥹
Another cute headcanon I have is that Soap is a master thief when it comes to nabbing Ghost clothes to wear as his own. A few hoodies and a pair of sweatpants never make it back to Ghost because Johnny has just adopted them as his own, but most of the time Soap hands them back to him because they've lost their "smell" and just takes whatever unfortunate article of clothing is laying around the house as his next victim until that one loses its Simon scent.
And because I'm a sucker for this, I feel like the two of them would realize their feelings for each other after a close call on a mission. One bullet hitting too close to be safe lands one of them in the hospital, and there's a bedside vigil for whoever wasn't as badly injured. And man if close calls don't make you realize just how close you came to losing the person you now deeply love then I don't know what does.
Also like to think that both Soap and Ghost can be a bit possessive over the other, but only in the hot "this one's mine" type way and not in the creepy "you can't hang out or talk to anyone but me" way, ya kno?
Same goes for protectiveness. Of course, they can't protect each other as much as they want, they're in the service for crying out loud, but that won't stop them from doing their best. Also, when it comes to new recruits that may want to try their luck against the infamous "Ghost" or not respect Soap like the damn man should be respected. Of course the whole 141 task force is there watching over the two of them through all of it because they're family and that's what family's DO. It's a two-way street for watching out for each other and the rest of the group.
Basically this AU takes place in a world where werewolves are a known thing and a separate species from humans. Pretty much humans and werewolves can and do live side by side. Of course some people have to ruin that. So Alfredo is a werewolf, was taking at a young age from his family (parents possibly killed??) and is mostly feral. The people that took him were like traffickers that would steal young wolves and sell them to people and Fredo just happened to be sold to someone who takes part in the world of underground werewolf fights. Think dogfighting but with werewolves instead of dogs.
10-15 years later, Trevor (and other colleagues that i'm not sure about yet) comes along and discovers the basement of a house they were investigating due to a neighbor complaining about a "smell" emanating from the house. The basement is lined with cages, with all the residents within deceased, except for one. And that one living werewolf down there is Fredo.
Trevor and his group rescue Fredo, and probably have to sedate him seeing as he only knows to respond in ways to other people and wolves that protects himself and his body. There's usually a place for feral wolves or just wolves that don't integrate well with humans and other wolves (think like rehab centers or shelters), but of course due to the sucky infrastructure of this world there isn't a spot available for Alfredo to get in there right now. So Trevor ends up volunteering or being assigned to take this almost feral wolf into his home. It's not safe, but the group can't leave him on the streets and the only other person that can take care of him has young kids at home and that would just be unnecessarily risky.
Over time Trevor and Alfredo grow closer as Fredo gets better and starts to process some of the trauma that he's been through. And they both honestly are loving each other's company. Even though there are more bad days then good ones. But one day a spot opens in the center and the people that run the center convince Trevor that Alfredo would be better with them. Alfredo doesn't want to go, but Trevor convinces him to go with them because it means that Alfredo will be taking care of by people that know how to do better by him than Trevor ever could (self-doubt hello?? love that shit??).
So a very upset and confused Alfredo goes with these people to the shelter and he's there for like several days. We see that neither him or Trevor are doing well during this time of separation and Trevor's house has never felt emptier. But he keeps telling himself it's for the better of Alfredo and that's all he cares about. One night its raining (because of course it is and i say so) and Alfredo escapes the shelter. He doesn't want to be there anymore, he wants to be with Trevor and the rest of the group of people that he's come to associate as his own. So he arrives on Trevor's doorstep soaking wet and Trevor is shocked obvi that Alfredo made it back to him and concerned but he's also relieved, so so so relieved, that Alfredo is back with him. Felt like he was missing a piece of himself all this time.
Then I think I'll possibly have the people who kept Alfredo trapped for fighting come knocking on Trevor's door and demanding to have Alfredo back. And Trevor is spitting mad not only because of the hell they put Fredo through and all the other people they kidnapped, but also because they talk about him like he's an object and not an actual living being. So I'll probably have Trevor fight off these people? Indirectly showing Alfredo that he will do anything to protect him, but he gets hurt (because unfortunately i love hurting that poor man) and Alfredo probably gets several good bites in on the people and they end up running away. Alfredo goes to run after them, but stops when he realizes Trevor's more injured then he thought. And then the two get taken care of and they get news that the leaders who came to their house were caught and spilled the beans on the rest of the people involved in that fighting operation. And then they live happily EVER AFTER! (with the magic of communication and therapy and love!)
