The Boxleitners AU (WordGirl)

Basically a Becky Boxleitner AU but I give Steven himself more character development and plot relevance before ultimately being fused to a mouse.

Before Squeaky (Season 1-2-3)

●•• Steven Boxleitner's fusion with Squeaky occurs much later than in the show in order to give him a much more in-depth character development to show his relationship with his daughter and his positive impacts on the people of fair city as a whole before his descent and transformation into Dr. Two Brains.

●•• With her identity as a superhero with an advanced vocabulary that's only know by her companion and sidekick, Captain Huggy Face. Becky Boxleitner is unable to talk much about her problems and difficulties with her own father because of the fear that all her hero-ing would get him hurt one day if he did find out.

|

└ • Though during somewhere between Season 3 and before it's finale, Steven does manage to figure out her identity and tries to be helpful by providing help whenever she needs it.

●•• The Boxleitners live in a fairly nice neighborhood that's located near the outskirts of the city that is also coincidentally the same neighborhood that a decent amount of WordGirl's enemies inhabit, Their house is right next to the Butcher and Granny May's houses with Maria the Energy Monster secretly living in one of the powerlines across the street.

|

└ • Steven has become friends with many of his definitely not villains in their civilian identities neighbors, Examples are:

|

└ ✧ The Butcher (Jerald T. Butcher) - Jerald is surprisingly great friends with Steven as they'd met when Jerald had decided cook some bbq but unfortunately broke his own barbecue grill on accident though he ultimately met up with Steven when he'd heard that the man was inventing a machine that cooked meat much faster, This little interaction had then led to become the thing many of the neighbors look forward to every week, The Weekly Neighborhood Barbeque.

|

└ ✧ Granny May ( Granny May) - May has always treated the Boxleitners as close family ever since the day that they'd started visiting her when during one of the neighborly bbq she'd let slip that she felt alot more lonely since her family and grandkids were off on vacation with even her own mom being busy aswell and that she wished more people visited her more often, the next day Steven brought his daughter and their pet monkey over and chatted which eventually turned into them baking cookies and listening to Granny May's childhood stories every Friday after Becky gets home from school. (Colonel Mustard, Granny May's cat has also taken a liking to them)

|

└ ✧ Mr. Big (Shelly Smalls) - With Wordgirl being able to foil his plans quickly he went under a fake name (Dr. Small) to seek the help of Steven Boxleitner to make a mind control bunny button which he ultimately used on Steven after the man found out about his true identity. Although even after being mind-controlled Steven still forgives Mr. Big and still do business with eachother like the time Shelly requested for a perfume that naturally causes bunnies to follow him.

➜ This leads to an episode that centers around Mr. Big using the bunnies against Wordgirl with steven on the other hand wasn't told what the perfume was for.

|

└ ✧ Energy Monster (Maria the Energy Monster) - Though their interaction was short, Maria had managed to convince Steven that teenage girls turn into large Electrical Monsters when they hit puberty after he'd given her a device that turned certain Electrical charges into sounds that then let her communicate.

➜ In an altered version of "Dinner or Consequences" Maria doesn't have the device removed and is able to communicate throughout the show permanently.

★ Becky is aware of their true identities but ultimately keeps quiet so her dad's new found friendship with them wouldn't end.

●•• Steven's assigned government owned lab and Becky's school that's just a few blocks away is located near the epicenter of the city so he normally just drops her off there when he's going to do some experimentation in the laboratory and if ever Becky gets out of school early she'll just walk to her dad's workplace to see and make sure that Steven hasn't accidentally blown himself up because of being too distracted and wait for him to finish so he can drive both of them back home. (On occasions, she'll just turn into wordgirl and fly back to their house if her dad was just at home.)

|

└ • Becky had once been in the presence of a dozen miscoloured mice on one faithful afternoon when she'd decided to visit Steven, Each cage had been surprisingly lavish and contained three mice each plus everything their little mouse sized hearts desired, When asking about the indoor mouse zoo she was told that they were rescued from an illegal smuggling case in the far north of the city with the smuggler subjecting the mice to harsh living conditions to which made Becky automatically angry at herself for being unable to help these poor creatures as WordGirl.

|

└ • Upon noticing his daughters clear reaction and the regret plastered all over her face, Steven placed his hand on Becky's shoulder and added that the mice were only temporarily in his care so they could be relocated to a place where all their needs will be met and that earlier today a nice elderly couple had generously donated over a pound of fruits and cheese for the poor mice which seemed to make his daughter's mood lift. He failed to mention how the perpetrator hadn't been caught yet and is probably roaming the city doing illegal smuggler things.

|

└ • At one point, Steven had introduced Becky to a little lab mouse that he'd affectionately named "Squeaky" in the count that the little mouse was the most noisiest and the most likely to bite her fingers if given the chance. He'd mentioned aswell that squeaky was one of the mice that was rescued from the smuggler incident so the hostility to humans was understandable.

➜ On a side note, Her dad had shown her how squeaky could break down walls and walls of drywall to get to a singular piece of cheese, It's unsure if Squeaky was experimented on by the Smuggler or if the small mouse was always like this.

●•• Steven still makes the mind-reading device but for different reasons such as to read squeaky's mind to figure out the smuggler's identity and if more animals were being illegally brought to fair city and maybe be able to help the authorities catch the criminal but with a lot of things happening here and there the mind-reading device didn't get to the testing phase until season 3.

----

The timeline is pretty messed up but basically any episode that's set in Season 1-3 that contains Dr. two brains as a main character is instead placed into Season 4 or tweaked so that it's Steven instead, The invasion of the bunny lovers is also put into Season 2 rather than 6.

This post is prone to being edited due to me always getting ideas on how to improve an AU so don't expect this to stay the same :D

(If you saw the sudden style change between images, Image 1 was drawn directly on CapCut while Image 2-3 was sketched on paper then placed into Capcut)

Hey wordgirl fandom, it’s been a bit, have a new au I’ve been cooking up

I won’t talk too much abt it bc I might make a comic abt it but, space war, lexicon, Ms Power and anguish for all my favorite characters 💖

Also Dr. Two Brains looses Squeaky, but bc Dr. Boxlitener is no more, and Squeaky is gone, all we have left is the amalgamation between the two, wich I will call Steven. Also he has a kind of stroke like thing when Squeaky is ripped off, so he’s lost a lot of his motor skills on his left, and as trouble with balance, hence the tail, wich is supported by the suspenders and belt. There’s so much I could say abt the design, but I’ll do a character sheet to explain it all.

GUESS WHO MADE AN AU MUAHAHAHAHAHA

hell yeah!

ok so basically, ive always like the idea of "what of instead of Squeaky Steven had fused with Mr Cheese" so did it!

this AU occurs after Dr. Wordgirl brains, basically 2B was trying to get spare pieces from the swap ray when conveniently Mr cheese broke into his lair, conveniently again he shoot the ray at him. Now the thing; he didnt swaped mind with Cheese, SQUEAKY DID

by doing so, not only did 2Bs got less vicious and feral, less craving of cheese and more civil, but also colder and more dangerous, getting himself a whole criminal gang and going on less bombastic and spectacular robberies and crimes, and becoming more coldblooded and dangerous as a criminal

basically the AU goes on over how he goes worse and worse while Wordgirl, Squeaky and even the Henchmen need to do detective work in order to bring him back to normal, since he's become more evasive

(yes this is inspired in The Great Mouse Detective and thats why Maria is a big kittycat and also 2Bs lowkey pet/killing machine, but like, let me be lol. Might change stuff in order to differentiate it and not to make it just mouse detective but Wordgirl, idk)

Wordgirl Infection Au: Mouse Virus

(So I have been looking at different infections aus from different fandoms and decided, hey why not try a version of my own. This idea stems from a mouse zombie apocalypse that I came up with and discussed with friends on discord. I am changing some things from the original idea such as with the virus its not fast acting in the infection au unlike the zombie idea. The cause for it is still the same as well as those who can be infected and those who can be immune.) VIRAL OUTBREAK REPORT: ENTRY 1 NAME: Professor Steven Dr. Two Brains SUBJECT: 01-OMEGA BIO INFECTION "aka" Mouse Virus CLASSIFICATION TYPE: Viral Infection ORIGIN OF OUTBREAK: Fair City Somewhere TIME OF OUTBREAK: April 10th, 2015 RATE OF INFECTION: 2 to 72 hours NUMBER OF INFECTED: 2,734 and growing NUMBER OF SURVIVORS:...less than 400 maybe even less than that SIGNS OF POSSIBLE IMMUNIZATION: Myself Only animals show 100% immunity to the infection SIGNS OF INFECTED: Scratches and bite marks SYMPTOMS: Discussed in another entry. TIMELINE OF INFECTION: Discussed in another entry STAGES: Recorded data in another entry from Beck an infected subject. PATIENT ZERO: UNKNOWN CURE:..Still in testing phase CAUSE: IT'S NOT MY FAULT! IT'S NOT MY FAULT! I DON'T KNOW WHY THE BLAME ME FOR THIS! I NEVER WANTED SOMETHING LIKE THIS I JUST WANTED CHEESE! THE DEVICE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS! SOMEONE TAMPERED WITH IT! I'm sorry Becky, I'm so sorry! CAUSE: Rodent mind reading device.

Another wordgirl au!! This one is called the “To be me again” (“me again” for short) Au!!

In this au, Steven Boxleitner struggles for control over Twobrains, saying he’d give his right arm to be himself again. Later that week, wordgirl stumbles across him in a battle of wills where Twobrains severely injures her. Before too much is done, however, Steven takes control and turns his dominant arm into goop. The pain causes him to pass out, which wordgirl and the henchmen use as an open opportunity to get Steven the surgery he needs to regain his sanity. When Steven wakes up, he is overjoyed. The robot arm he later receives takes a little getting used to, but Steven is just glad to be himself again.

i have an idea

[melodythebunny]

re watched fiona and cake and suddenly got an idea

Professor Two Brains au! :3.

Steven still fuses with squeaky for a while he struggles to control his cheese craving however he finds a way to get rid of his craving for cheese. >:33333 (Winter King gave me this idea XDD)

Word girl is gone in this au. no one knows what happened to her or captain huggy face. it's a touchy topic for Professor T.B.

Professor T.B. is a hero unlike his OG counterpart. he has a team of smart mice as henchmen (or henchmice XD) and uses his gagdets to save the day

still has Charlie and joey (the other henchman) around

since two brains is the hero...who is the villain? well that's where Miss Static comes in. zany TV hostess who kidnaps people to put in her show ill reveal more later since spoilers >:3c iykyk shhhhh no spoiling guys

other doodles in under cut

Drawovers and future AU.

Some lore under the cut:

Five years have passed in Fair City, Word Girl and friends are now in high school. The villains are up to their usual shenanigans, new ones arriving to fill in any crime slowdowns.

Dr. Two Brains, however, has slowly felt his mind slip from his control as the years pass, realizing that not only has he lost control of his mind but his body as well. He has undergone some unforeseen changes, slowly transforming into the body of a mouse. His claws poke through his gloves due to this, and he desperately tries to conceal his physical changes.

Professor Snakescrew, once known as Professor Seren Ramos, was once Steven Boxlietners colleague. Always feeling side-stepped by him, she decided it was time to prove herself during the grand gadget competition. This being sponsored by the city and a winning invention being specially chosen to be used to fight crime. Seren showed Steven her blueprints for an invention, but Steven put down her plans as they could be “used for evil”.

In her anger, she sought out to prove her rival wrong, holing herself in her lab for years attempting to perfect her creation. Little did she know, the man she swore to defeat had completely lost his mind. Upon completing her invention, she leaves her lab to see a changed world and Dr. Boxleitner, now Two Brains, a shadow of the man he once was.

Now realizing that there was no one to prove herself to, she now feels that Dr. Boxleitner was right, her inventions can be used for evil! >:) She goes back to the drawing board, thinking that if she couldn’t one-up Steven as a scientist, she could beat him at being a villain.

Her love for reptiles bleeds into her evil schemes. She created a serum made from snake venom, turning her hair into one giant snake (kinda like medusa but if it was one snake rather than a bunch). She lost her right eye in the process. The spiral spins when she’s excited/angry. Most of her gadgets attract snakes, her minions are snakes, and theres a lot of snake theming to her inventions and laboratory. She uses Two Brains fear of snakes to her advantage, often foiling his cheese-stealing plans.

Abilities: Her and her snakes venom have hallucinogenic properties, causing the bite victim to experience pain and visual illusions. Often this can involve hallucinating an injury that isnt actually there or a nightmare scenario.

"I'm..sorry to hear that." Carrie says. Feeling a bit awkward now. Given how she couldn't relate to that. The feeling of loosing someone dear not once but three times nearly. She could only imagine how Steven felt.

The rest of the night was a blur to her. Mostly wrapped in her own thoughts. For once it seemed like sleep wasn't going to come easily. Perhaps it was this place. A feeling of deja vu left her on edge for reasons she could decipher.

Surprisingly, Steven never asked for the photos back. Perhaps he had forgotten to take them back. After looking through them for the umpteenth time in the row, Carrie figured to return them. Or at least put them somewhere where Steven would be able to find them.

That was her intention in the beginning anyways. Somehow she found herself looking at the photos hung on the wall, bookshelves and practically anywhere photos were normally placed. They all felt off however. Like something was missing. 'wait... didn't he mention his late wife?' Carrie thought. Why didn't he have any pictures of her? Carrie was genuinely curious now. Wanting to find them if any were still around. Part of her knew it was most likely painful for him to have those up. ' I'll just give a quick peep at them...it's not like I'd have to tell him I saw them...' she says to herself.

After a bit of quiet rummaging around. She found a box that was hidden among other items in the area. She carefully opened the dusty box. Holding back a small sneeze. Inside were old clothes jewelry...very shiny jewelry. She was almost tempted to nab one. But her promise of no more stealing stopped her.

and underneath...'jackpot!'

her eyes lit up seeing Steven, younger and less looking like a zombie. Geez he really needs more sleep Carrie thought. And beside Steven was...

Carries eyes widened.

staring at the photo a familiar face stared back.

Steven frowned when he heard shuffling coming from upstairs. He was working on a cure for his daughter like he did every night. He was surprised someone was still up at this late hour. "I wonder if Carrie might be awake." Steven pondered. The shuffling he heard with his super hearing wasn't too close. So it couldn't have been Mouse or Bob rummaging for food in the kitchen again. Steven exited the basement and up to the living room. The shuffling has ceased. Steven wasn't relaxed by that. It had sounded like the shuffling originated upstairs. Steven walked up the stairs and saw his daughter and Bob still asleep in their room. It warmed Steven to see the noise hadn't awoken them. Steven then checked on where Carrie was sleeping. He wasn't that all surprised to see her missing. It only further confirmed his theory that Carrie was behind the noise. Steven saw the trapdoor to the attic was opened and the lights were on. He climbed up the ladder. Once he was up there, Steven turned his head and gazed around the attic. He soon found Carrie leaning over an open box and frozen in place. Steven became confused. 'What on earth could have made her freeze in place like that.' Steven tried to peek over Carrie's shoulder and see what was the matter. Steven still couldn't see Carrie's expression but he could now see what her focus was on. Steven became a little upset that Carrie was looking through a box that belonged to his late wife. 'I guess what they say about cats and curiosity is kind of true.' Steven mused. He wasn't going to kill her over it of course. The worse he was going to do was scold her for looking through private and personal things without permission. "What are you doing Carrie?" Steven addressed, causing the woman to become startled by the sudden presence behind her. @experimentedcat
