Would you mind elaborating on the whole inFAMOUS Hijack AU? Like, why do you love it so much, how did you come to love it, the story behind everything in that AU, stuff like that. I'm super curious because it's really cool and I must know more.
WOAH. Okay, I LOVE THIS.
Let’s start from the game itself. InFAMOUS is the first game I’ve played on my new Plastation 4, and when I bought it, I didn’t know if I was going to like it or not. As soon as I started, I fell in love with the graphics and Delsin (I mean, who doesn’t?). As the story progressed, I came to love it more and more, and when I met Eugene, DUDE, I fell. HARD. I discovered that I had a lot things in common with him and this brought me to love him even more. Once I finished the game, I started to ship Delgene like mad, and I still play the game from the beginning just to see them interact again. They literally represent the best examples of Nerd/Jock interactions and. I. LOVE. IT.Now, you must know that I LOVE crossovers more than anything, so I thought “Why not make a Hijack Au for InFAMOUS?”, and, well, things happened. Regarding the choice of the characters, it was pretty obvious who was going to be who. Jack resembles Delsin because they both feel like outcasts and demand freedom in doing what they want. They are both sassy as hell, and like to mess up things just for fun, Jack because he is a natural prankster, and Delsin because he is a rebel and, well, Delsin. Hiccup and Eugene are almost like brothers separated at birth, if you know what I mean. Same sad background story: they were both bullied, just for being different. Also, they are passionate about the things they love, such as crafting objects or videogames. They are so much alike and I literally couldn’t resist.
So this is basically why I love everything about the InFAMOUS!AU and why it is one of my favourite crossovers ever. I hope this satisfies you, I could go on for hours ranting about my ships hehe. Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my first language -w- If you want to know more, just ask! <3
The Infamous!AU got me so excited I literally sat up all night and drafted out what their powers would be because I just could not stop. Gods, I am so thrilled about this.

Ellie's voice carried out to the chilled wind, said to nobody in particular as she stared at the massive city laid out before her. The rain had been drizzling almost all day, soaking her through her thick hoodie and thermal and chilling her hands to numbness. In truth, this probably wasn't one of her better ideas -- she was not blind to the large DUP insignia plastered along the outer walls and the checkpoints at the entrances. But maybe it'd be easier to blend in to a large crowd rather than be easily picked out in a smaller city. That, and food --- of the many downsides to being a bio-terrorist, still having to eat was one of them. Part of her had hoped she was exempt from those things when she bolted, but her agitated stomach told her quickly otherwise.
Converse shoes padded through the grass cautiously towards the city, Ellie's shoulders swaying and eyes darting about as she watched along the fences. There were some DUP agents at the top -- but apparently their apparent task at hand was much too boring for them to actually do it. Already she could pinpoint blind spots, good places to up-n-over. Warily, she began her mission, staying low and out of sight until her fingers hooked in the chain link and she began her upward ascent. The barbed wire in three parallel lines across the top might have intimidated others enough to back down, but she knew how to work around these things. Hands between the barbs, hook a leg over, swing the other over....
"Hey!"
The shout spooked Ellie and her grip released, sending her down onto the concrete with a surprised yelp. It should have hurt; maybe even should've broken her damn shoulder. But the fall only hit hard enough to knock the wind out of her chest, her.... powers...keeping her from taking damage. Already she was picking herself up, raising her hands to show she had no weapons. Shit. "Hi guys, uh.." A weak laugh left her chest as she took a step back as a squad of four DUP soldiers slowed to a halt just a few yards from her. "Kinda..dreary day for a stroll, right?"
At first, she wondered why they weren't advancing. Trying to grab her by the arm or order her to keep her hands where they could see 'em. Both sides of the encounter stayed silent, staring at one another, waiting to see the move that each other would make. Then, one soldier -- presumably a younger one of the group -- abruptly lifted his gun and fired.
It hit her swear and the gut and she hit the pavement, making both a surprised and pained grunt. Holy shit. Holy fucking shit. They just -- they just fired a loaded fucking weapon at her without even knowing if she really was a bio-terrorist! She half expected to feel blood spread, to take the plunge with death she knew anyone her size and age would be taking now had they been shot like she had.
But, no. She'd pick herself up, the golden brown wisps dancing around her fingers unnaturally. She'd take a step back, and then another, as the rest of the squad raised their firearms. Arch back her hand rapidly and threw it towards them, just as if she were pitching a ball, and watching -- as three to four bits of raw copper ore chucked themselves through midair at the DUP soldiers, hitting them all in various places and knocking off weakly, barely inflicting a scratch. Ellie felt herself begin to panic. "Next time, don't shoot people."
