Back on my usual BS
what if the memory gun temporarily erased person's idea of self, society norms etc, creating a Jekyll and Hyde situation for Fiddleford? and the more he used it, the more this other version of him became dominant, but every time he learnt what his "Hyde" did, he erased that too bc he couldn't bear the guilt so it went all spiraling down?
i enjoy that quite a lot actually. i always envision the memory gun having similar side effects to psychoactive drugs (euphoria, delayed reactions, motor function loss, memory loss of course), which get worse the more he uses it. he'd be in that state for a while before snapping out of it and remembering where he is and what he's doing. i like him being able to regain control of himself when he's like that but he acts totally different. also the idea of that aftermath state starting to come on on it's own accord like the transformations in j&h is not out of the realm of possibility.
i think him becoming a completely different person and not remembering it j&h/fight club style is very fun and cool. also gay. it would definitely fuck him up, but that's what we're all here for anyway.
slightly related bonus: nineteenth century stan and fiddleford doodles from my notebook
cooking a regency au in my mind. charles originally engaged to seb for years and years until the engagement falls through kind of scandalously and to save himself and his family from embarrassment charles ends up arranged marrying (in a matter of months) carlos. and then a few years on they get divorced too. and there are saucy rumors about him fucking the staff (garage 16)
I CAN believe Seb left Charles at the altar, prompting all sorts of speculations and rumours about the state of his virtue and/or his family's finances. Carlos is the rebound but they have a brilliant time until they don't. Oh, the SCANDAL
hi hello talk to me about junmei :3
i prefer post-canon stuff but i will gladly take anything!! also. do you perchance know of any jun wu redemption fics because i could only find one on ao3 ;;
yes he’s a villain but. it’s fanfic! he comes with a complimentary sad backstory! he’s stuck under a mountain to think about his actions! he’s stuck there forever, he has plenty of time to reflect on his behavior
First up @witch-is-writing do you know?
I only remember ones that vaguely count as redemption really but in my defense I woke up a minute ago, saw "Junmei" and scurried to write this text. Also do tell me which fic you found so I can check if I read that pls :3
Jun Wu is just the personification of 'hurt people hurt people' for me and if you wish I may write an essay about that thazs vaguely structuered and more of a ramble. I do however very much consider mei nianqing to be important to his healing. I dont even call it a redemption arc but oh boy that man needs some Healing. Mnq does too and they really should do that together because their issues are so intertwined. I have so many loose thoughts about this right now oh ma god.
The path to Jun Wus redemption or healing will always lead through the vassal that stayed longer and the vassal that left in the end. The one man he couldn't kill in two thousand years. The one man who knew him before he put on one mask after the other.
And truly they have all the time in the world for that post-canon. Let nianqing (...nian...nyan....nya... Yeah i didnt sleep enough.) visit him in the mountain. Return day after day to make it stick a little. That hes there now. Bring tea, bring books to read, whatever really. They are both so incredibly hurt it makes me sick (positive) and it would be a journey. One thats hard and rocky. One where JW still falls back to lash out and bite because its what saved him for hundreds of years but MNQ stays now no matter how he growls.
Yes JW is just a rescue dog to me and I will never get that thought out of my head ever again but I have one and the similiarities of it are striking. Funnily enough that also means most people should just ignore him (for now). Let one person get closer for now, more than that would be too much and if he starts to feel cornered he will growl and then he will bite. Its an intricate play ot trial and error to figure out when to actually step back and give more space and when to take him by the scruff even if he tries to bite. So MNQ got a lot of work and figuring that out ahead because thats his rescue now (has always been really) and JW will always remain a little more at ease with him than the rest of the world.
At last those who caused the pain have died and after that, by all means, it was all a grasp for control because for as long as he has control he can never be hurt. I believe we all try to hold control over at least something in our lives and its natural to do so. We are all scared to be hurt. But nobody can control everything (much less forever) and he needs to learn to live with that fear and uninternalize the mask of anger that hides it.
No matter what he needs to feel safe first. Not ultimatly safe but at least safe to show that hes afraid. Safe enough to stop wearing a mask of stirkes to hide the vulnerabilty. He needs to be scared and he needs to be vulberable and it need to be safe and okay for once.
And who better to grant that safety than that started the whole tale of his demise and his crimes by telling our main character to the face that this man shone so much brighter than he ever did. A fact i will never get over. The contents of what MNQ tells XL and us is like: War crimes, attempted murder on me, wiping out the heavenly capital, bringing ruin to Multiple kingdoms and how does one start such a tale best? Logically by refering to the man in question as the sun. But thats not enough. He wasnt just any source of light. He outshone you and all of us and all the other gods which are now dead because he murdered them.
MNQ is crazy for that and I absolutly adore that and that is literally all it will ever take for me to ship this. You can not tell me that is not a subtle love confession?? JW attempted to murder him multiple times i don't think people normally talk about such a guy like that??
Uhhhhhhhhhh anyhow
