If transitioning is like addiction, then we can’t expect detransitioners in recovery just to "move on", by Ginny Welsh

Baby Mine (From 'Dumbo'/Soundtrack Version) - Arcade Fire

This song is a great inspiration for another fanfiction I am working on. If you know the song/listen to it, you probably easily find out what it's gonna be about lol

The song is from Dumbo and I love the old animated movie and dislike the real life one, but I do favor this version of the song over the old one

Also I had written this and had to change it completely cause I literally wrote the summary of the fanfiction I kinda work on rn lol So this is not my FIRST idea that comes up by the song but my second one!

I don't know if I ever said this but if ANYONE finds ANY of the ideas interesting you can use them of course. You can credit me when you want then but it's not a must of course! :]

I also think this is the longest one sooo. Here are some CWs that are in this idea: Inplied Mpreg, Omegaverse, Omega Dream, Alpha Techno, retelling of murder, kinda Utopia vs Dystopia vibes, guns

AU:

Dream loved his child. Phoebe (using Phoebe from Infinitesimal here) was adorable and lovely, the sweetest little girl in existence. And he loved her oh so much, the worse it was that he had to hide her away. Because babies weren't allowed, they were seen as a burden in society, only the rich and wealthy could have children. The poor ones on the lowest layer of society couldn't.

There wasn't enough space, not enough food and the rich people who lived on the highest plattform - where the 'better ones' lived - were disgusted by them. How could they keep building their factories and dumb their garbage down there when humans needed to space to live?

No, it wasn't possible. So the easiest solution was to ban having children when you didn't live on the highest plattform. And if you did and authorities found out? Well, you were thrown into prison where you'd either work for free for the rest of your live, or died.

What happened to the children? Dream couldn't even think about it, the way he had seen grown men and women holding their weapon to their heads only to pull the trigger. Unless the child was 'pretty enough', then some rich family would get it as a gift.

Disgusting, but the hard reality. So Dream had hid when he had gotten pregnant, unplanned, after making money by sleeping with every Alpha there was. Every time authorities came to check he found a new hiding spot, always moving to make sure he wouldn't be found.

And then she was born, little Phoebe came a bit too early, but it was okay. She was perfect and he would protect her with everything he could. They lived at the highest apartment of a large building, one that had gotten shut down cause no one could afford rent. So high up no one heard a baby cry and no one went to check there.

Until someone did. Dream was taking a nap after he had returned from the market to get some food and water. He hadn't noticed the man who had followed him, he had felt safe, he had made a mistake.

Cause suddenly there was an Alpha in his home, holding a gun at his head. Dream jumped back, already knowing that he had screwed up, but maybe he could persude the man to leave before Phoebe would show herself.

The man was called Techno, as he had said, and had wondered how someone could live in this building. Dream did everything to get him to leave, tried using his Omega side in hope that the Alpha would want to please him. But it didn't work, because Techno - who worked for the government - had seen the toys. He had smelled someone else.

And then Phoebe came out of her room, tired and sleepy with a plushie under her arm. Immediately the gun was aimed at her, Dream jumping to his daughter and holding her close, pleading to keep her alive, to let them both live.

Techno stared at them, watched Dream cry and Phoebe look confused. And then she giggled, hiding her face in her toy and Techno lowered his weapon. He looked down at himself, breathing heavily, before looking back up.

The Alpha carefully put his weapon down as he kneeled to the ground. Dream watched him, holding his daughter close and not trusting the man. He had seen those people trick children, pretend they were friendly to shoot them when they thought they were safe.

In a moment of confusion Phoebe pulled away from Dream and ran over to Techno. Dream cried out for her but she didn't react. To his surprise the pinket held his arms out, picking the little girl up who laughed.

That's when Dream had noticed it, that something had changed. The icy and hard eyes of the man turned soft, watery even. Slowly the Omega crawled over to the two, telling Techno about Phoebe and how they lived.

Techno listened, nodded and watched as the little girl snuggled up to him for another nap. It was dark outside when Dream finished, watching how the man held his little girl in his arms. The Alpha turned to him, telling him he wouldn't tell anyone about them, that he had been questioning the government and society for a long time now.

It was that day when a very special relationship started, one that would bring Dream a lot of pain but also a lot of laugh. And one that would later make a revolution rise.

A letter from Mimi Smith to a fan, dated September 9, 1981

“Thank you for your letter and photograph of John. It is a long time since I saw Liverpool, from what I hear, neither John or I would recognise the place as we know it. The only connection John had with Strawberry Fields, was when we went to the Garden Party. I am told he equipped a Gym for them. I was pleased about that. I knew Stuart Sutcliffe very well, a very talented boy. He was John’s Special friend, they used to have meals together at home, spent hours together, discussing art. They had so much in common. I was very upset when I heard of his death, John was shattered, although he didn’t talk about it to outsiders, but Stu was his closest friend. All, or mostly all northerners are warm + friendly. I’m glad you found them so. There was no harm in the Cavern I found. It was just a place where office people, students spent their lunch hour.”
