FOR TRASHGAYS cause what else: canon swap AU, ASOUE AU, Hogwarts AU (baby version AND grown up version cause I feel particularly evil I guess)
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
canon swap AU:
1) things that entertain me about tsg!gallico is that giovanni would kick aaron’s punk ass so fast. but at the same time i feel like he’d accidentally end up on the same route nisha went on (inadvertently sticking around while aaron did his thang because of hypnotism and a need to just stay close to nora that he was constantly manipulating) because matthew would get SO dependent on giovanni and i’m sure giovanni would like the idea of having that WITHOUT having to do all the work of doing the torture himself..
.. i mean he’d def kill aaron eventually and i love that and also now i just rly wanna think about aaron/matthew???? mmm???
2) let’s talk about how fucking terrifying gallico!nisha is. how everything in her head is justified, she just STOPPED being careful and gave up because she KNOWS she’s bad but at least she’s using her BAD for GOOD. gallico!nisha seeing nora and thinking, GOD, SHE’S THE MOST GOOD... THERE WOULD BE NOTHING AS PURE AND GOOD AS THIS GIRL IN FRONT OF HER BUT SHE HAS TO FOLLOW ORDERS!!!!! nisha would be constantly pleading with her to just cooperate but she also wouldn’t hesitate at all. it’s like she’s possessed and nora is so scared of her damn damn
3) happy thought: nora standing up for herself and killing people and escaping! unhappy thought: matthew getting dragged into an escape because giovanni is the one who has to defend him and g o d matthew
4) ... yOU KNOW MATTHEW WAS THE ONE WHO WOULD BITE AND TURN GIOVANNI HERE MMM you have to tell me how that would go down because i gotta know if he reacts to being turned as orgasmically as nisha did
5) i cant? imagine? how nora would even cope with this kind of trauma tho t b h but i think she’d develop a similar thing of needing to kill to stabilize the world again and she’d use nisha as a sort of... balance. nisha is just head over heels so she loves being pulled along with her she’s having a great ole time t b h
ASOUE au:
1) nora bites everyone it’s so cute
2) nisha and matthew take losing their newest guardians the hardest i think and it’s giovanni’s job to really keep them all trucking but g o d i imagine them especially close because it’d be the middle of the night and they’d just.. be SAD together and have a chance to be more open about it because the others just like to pretend nothing’s wrong
3) which is wild cuz this is an au where i can ACTUALLY IMAGINE giovanni and nora getting along. they’re such fighters. lil baby giovanni just kicking someone in the shins and nora bites them until someone pulls them both off and makes them behave and they’re just aggressively holding hands and glaring at everything fiucdfkjgs
4) i imagine nisha as violet and giovanni and matthew kind of splitting up klaus’ role and really coming up with the plans or having all this knowledge or just finding solace in books and stories aaaaaaa. i also just imagine matthew always being the favorite, like if they were in a place where one of them gets special treatment and the rest get treated like shit, it’s usually matthew who gets to be the special one
5) i cant stop thinking about erich and aaron as an evil power couple constantly trying to get the trashgay fortune PLS I LOVE IT.
hogwarts au (you fiend):
(as babies!)
1) nora being THRILLED to be sorted into slytherin house until she meets giovanni who immediately is all ‘THESE are all the house rules and THIS is our reputation and if you EVER step a toe out of line and lose points for us then i will make EVERY MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE HELL.’
nora proceeds to lose 10 points for slytherin by the end of the night. their rivalry.. is born.
2) i like how we have the trashgays but then we have this awkward lil trashgays 2: electric boogaloo with erich and aaron the awful ex-boyfriends who now date. listen. awful slytherin boys. aaron is on nisha a la drarry. erich acts like he’s giovanni’s best friend for the longest time.
3) nisha struggles with magic s o so so much at first because she’s just... SO SCARED AND NERVOUS OF FUCKING UP and she doesnt get the hang of it until she starts befriending the others and relaxes a little bit because i like to imagine they’re totally supportive... in... in their way...
4) p l s let’s think of them at the yule ball. giovanni in a dress robe. giovanni glaring at matthew’s date who is NOT him and is PROBABLY nora. nisha panicked and asked out a girl that wasnt nora, nora’s jealous, nisha’s upset, some punch got bewitched and thrown around, it was a mess.
5) pls i just want to steal all these hp arcs and slap it on these babies. give matthew and nisha a rly unfortunate bonding experience by having them both SOMEHOW land a detention in the forbidden forest and have them stumble over a dying unicorn. give me NORA AS THE HEIR OF SLYTHERIN PLS P L S. give me dementors h o l y shit these babies trying to learn their patronuses and trying to fight dementors off and they’re all fucking DYING G O D
older!:
1) man it’s a good thing they fought dementors as kids because hoo boy matthew after his stay in azkaban :’) i just want nora to have never known that he went for her and giovanni spits it in her face one day because matthew just goes into these... AWFUL dissociative trances as if he’s suddenly surrounded by dementors and i just waNT TO SEE HER FREAK...
2) aaron and nora as dark wizards aaaa nisha and giovanni as aurors aaaa nisha actually being forced to do the killing curse just to free nora and being forever plagued by guilt for NOT FEELING GUILTY AAAAA
3) speaking of forbidden curses. i want. them all. to just. to use them to each other at least once. giovanni screaming CRUCIO at nora in the middle of their fights. nora using the imperious curse on nisha so that she can sneak out to do dark wizard things. nisha constantly just.. fucking with the system in the ministry just to keep themselves from trouble
4) they all just get so used to using each other’s wands just always. they’ve all adjusted to the feel of it. nora’s wand always sparks angrily in giovanni’s hands when he tries to take it but he can always will it into submission. when nisha takes nora’s wand she can feel all the dark magic it’s used and it just SINKS into her and she hates it but she just loves the intimacy of using her wand too much to stop. giovanni gently prying matthew’s wand out of his hand so he doesn’t hurt anyone because he can tell the killing curse is just SITTING there on the tip of his tongue aaaa. giovanni and nisha have such similar wands it’s hard to tell the difference but giovanni’s has this cold preciseness to it while nisha’s seemed to have absorb her hesitance with magic. mm
5) nisha spends a lot of time just making potions for everyone. she’s rly good at poisons. i think after what happened with nora she quit being an auror (or just refused to go in nd everyone is looking for her) and she gives giovanni and matthew and nora just regular potions to deal with different ailments and hoping to soothe away their trauma (in reality it’s more of just... a suppresent that they, especially matthew and nora, get more or less dependent on but she doesnt know what else to do). also i like to think she magicked up giovanni’s prosthetic leg, if he still loses it at some point
shh its a secret but the ‘goodbye to the world’ version of the song on the mix is the su version because there’s literally nothing more tsg than nisha screaming ‘JUST LET ME DO THIS FOR YOU’ at the love of her life ok
