oi you I wanna hear about your au ideas
Oh boy do I have ideas. Unsure which au exactly you wanna hear about considering I have. A lot. (Hope101, indie game dev x streamer, magical girl au, pokémon sun and moon au, Dragon Nagito au, Dragon Izuru au, etc…) But I can tell you about my band au that I’ve just started working on!
The story is mainly about Hajime/Izuru. He is the bassist in a band with Ibuki (guitarist,) Nagito (pianist/keyboard,) Leon (drums,) and Sonia (lead singer.) However, one day he gets into an accident leading to some brain damage and Acquired Savant Syndrome. He’s suddenly basically a genius, and he’s struggling to feel emotions like he used too. The overflow of information that he suddenly understands at a glance is painful and overwhelming. He doesn’t feel like himself anymore. He isn’t sure what he feels.
So ofc his band is there for him, and they try to help him feel again and explore himself through music, where eventually he realizes he isn’t Hajime anymore and he has to come to terms with that. He’s who Hajime used to be, and he’s also more (and also probably dating Nagito now because I’m a sucker for Kamukoma.)
Though I should mention, eventually Leon gets kicked out of the band. He and Ibuki were dating for a while (mega party couple fr fr) but she got fed up with him play-flirting with other girls and dumped him one day. The band’s manager, Nekomaru, brings in Akane to be their new drummer, while Ibuki begins a budding queer coded frenemyship with Toko Fukawa which may end up in a romance if Toko can swallow her pride and let herself love and be loved. But nah rn she’s just texting Ibuki 24/7 because she “hates that disgusting immature otaku” and for no other reason at all surely.
