#Theyd have to destroy the body part

even if bergemite's ice melts, a bottle of the water could be included just in case. saliva samples could be used too
Alas, Bergmite’s ice shell is just frozen water collected from the air, so I don’t think it’s any different than regular water. Saliva tho? Perhaps 🤔

Of all the difficult choices in each season of TWDG, What would say are the ones that you struggled with the most for each season?
HMM good question. there are some choices i feel conflicted about when i get to them but these are for the most part the ones that i actively dread having to make (which i like 😏 those are the best choices). there are other choices throughout the series that i feel Bad about, but not necessarily conflicted. like. i Know what my choice is, but i still feel bad about the consequences 😔 these are the ones that i actually mentally find myself battling. i just love the kinds of choices that make me sit on a pause screen for too long when its really Not That Serious
S1: help lilly/help kenny - the circumstances of this choice are what make it hard. literally a ticking time bomb. do you try to save lillys father? even tho hes been nothing but a complete jackass to you AND the group this entire time and put himself in this situation? or do you try to save the group by destroying his brain before its too late? clem being there watching doesnt help because now theres the added layer of "do i brutally murder this man in front of this child even if it means saving her life?" i usually end up trying to help lilly just because i know kenny is gonna do it regardless (and i dont want her to feel completely ostracized by the group). the idea of puling this woman back from her dying father so we can brutally murder him in front of her is.... a lot. like.. you can TRY to save him you know?? even if he turns hed still have to get off the ground first just hold the salt lick ready kenny 💀 plus you still have to actually Die first before turning. theyd have a second to feel his pulse stop. but its a very hectic scene where youre forced to act first think later. and either way clem is forced to see it. the worst part about it is knowing kenny is gonna be on my ass about it even tho i side with him on LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE 😐😑
shoot lee/leave lee - its just 😭 telling this little girl to kill the one person she has left, moments after seeing her dead parents. its time for her to start doing the hard things. but to tell her to do THIS?? you are fucking that child up beyond belief. but also the guilt she'll carry if she DOESNT do it, knowing hes still in that jewelry store, possibly chained to it, forever (which the narrative impact of lee starting and ending the game in handcuffs (possibly a prisoner in his own body??) makes me SCREAM AND CRY LEEEEEEEEEEE THATS GOOD NARRATIVE BAYBEE).
S2: shoot kenny/look away - another "is clem ready to do this?" kind of moment. its time for her to start making her own choices. what does SHE want?? i think even a clem who shoots kenny is gonna be conflicted about it on some level. recently i played a clem who let kenny kill jane then shot him anyway. that was cool :) and the moment is way more dark than shooting him outright. no heartfelt goodbyes. just a tired "do it". oof. the set up for the kenny/jane fight is Not Good like we ALLLLLL KNOOWWW it shouldve been luke ok. but the choice itself is still a HUGE character moment for clem, and its one of my favorite and most dreaded choices in the series. how is clem feeling about kenny at this point? is shooting him something she can do?? before its too late?? or will she be paralyzed by choice? this is a choice she Never shouldve had to make, but here she is, and she has to. before time runs out. i like my clems alone so usually i either wait out the clock (no choice is still a choice. clem just cant do it but cant look away either) and stay at wellington (good alone ending), or i shoot him 1 of 2 ways (clem Can do it)(bad alone ending). shooting him after he kills jane is just like 2 birds one stone to me SHDHSJKDS 💀 and it hits that middle ground of being paralyzed by choice but still ultimately Making A Choice, just too late for it to matter to anyone but herself. and her line of dialogue finding aj alone "we're gonna be ok, we're gonna be ok" like shes trying to reassure herself more than anything WAAAHH i kinda liked it a Lot actually 👀
S3: ??? romancing kate or not i guess?? - its the only one that really made me feel conflicted (aside from maybe the conrad thing?? sorry clem but im gonna force you to stick around actually i like it for the Narrative and it makes gabe less annoying later. also conrads alright). do you respect your brother or do you get with his wife who hates him LOL. because its not one choice you make, not really. its one the game is constantly asking of you, putting you in situations where the choice needs to be made again and again until finally you make the Ultimate choice about it. people who complain about the game being so pushy about it are kinda funny to me because like, ya.. thats the whole point.... (ive pushed back defiantly Literally just because of how pushy the game is about it tho so like i get it) she is a temptation the game is intentionally dangling in front of javi. she is the Final source of conflict between the brothers. will he remain loyal or give into it? i say give in 😏 give david something to actually be mad about. ive both romanced her and not, and the game kinda feels stunted if you dont? like... i Get It. thats your brothers wife who is still wearing her ring after YEARS of him being gone. theres 😬 feelings there. but even if you dont romance her the game still punishes you by having her be weird about it in the garage in front of david anyway. i say do it even tho its messy. it makes the story more sound imo which S3 desperately needs at that point. javi can still feel bad about it. what DID david expect?? i love mess :)
S4: kill couple/send aj inside - i love a choice that gives me a lot to think about. even if the actual in game consequences are flimsy to none. with this choice specifically, what makes it hard is the fact that the couple asked to be left alone. if they were just two walkers it wouldve been a no brainer. but with their final request, it becomes a matter of respecting the dying wish of this sad couple (which becomes narratively relevant at the end of the game OUGH WHEN IT COMES BACK). and will you teach aj that respecting those wishes is important? he needs to learn to become self sufficient anyway. clem crawled through her own number of dangerous holes in her youth. but thats the other side of it. that clem, knowing personally how dangerous crawling into those spaces where no one could follow was, i dont know how comfortable she would be letting aj do the same. but also, she doesnt want him to grow up too hardened. if she kills this couple, its pushing him further into that hardened mindset. to do whatever you have to to survive, no matter the cost to others. its a choice i find myself sitting with the longest even tho its consequences are pretty much just 2 lines of dialogue ("that couple clem tried to Guilt me about" LMAO YEAH ITS TRUE AJ THIS IS A LEARNING MOMENT FOR YOU). but yeah this is a choice i have a 50/50 chance with going either way on. every time i kill the couple i feel so bad about it 😭 (and so does clem 🥺). it being more of a philosophical question instead of an actual gameplay decision is what i like about it
not sure/take things slow/girlfriends/kiss - NOT JOKING ABOUT THIS ONE its actually so hard for me HSDHSDJKSJKDJK i dont have a paragraph of reasons why tho i just love them all differently. the first two feel the most realistic. i do like the idea of taking things slow and the dialogue for it is really sweet. but also. they might die or be taken tonight. so one kiss before everything could come crashing down on them is nice. but also hearing them call each other girlfriends???? adds years to my life. vi in ep 3 being like "um so you said you wanted to be girlfriends 🥺?" and clem like "😏 ya" i just love hearing them say it 😭 Out Loud 👁👁. and then either way clem gets another chance to kiss her in the woods in ep 3 so it works out. and 2 more kisses in ep 4 from vi this time!! thank you devs for my life 🙏 what a wonderful choice
i love choice games so much just because of the questions they ask of you. i honestly LOVE looking through the player choice stats i find them SO INTERERSTING ESPECIALLY the ones that are split perfectly 50/50. i would literally look at the stats for every single choice im not joking. where are the stats

sonic boom season 3 ep where team sonic hears a rumor about eggmans grandfather gerald robotnik having his body frozen and held in stasis in a secret part of eggmans lair like hes squidward in that one FUTUREEEEEEE ep you know the one we all know spongebob. anyway they go and free him because they wanna learn all about eggman as a child so 1. they can laugh at him 2. get an idea on why hes evil
they locate gerald whos like "........yeah i can give you intel on why hes like that or whatever" so theyd trust him but soon it turns out hes evil too and was the one who encouraged eggman to go down that path! eggman meanwhile is kinda salty that these people just broke into his lair and set his grandfather free without his permission but hey it doesnt hurt to have some evil family bonding time. after they incapacitate team sonic together, gerald convinces eggman to try blowing up the moon because the moon killed his grandma (gerald's, not eggman's) when a giant chunk of it fell on her long ago
anyway SURPRISE silver comes in from 200 years in the future, frees team sonic, talks about how his future doesnt have a moon and hes here to change that, and together they stop the robotnik duo when sticks yells about how destroying the moon would mess up the habitat and eggmans like "damn you have a good point" because hes an environmentalist. geralds like "ugh" and is so disappointed that his grandson gave up so easily that he goes back to the lair and freezes himself for another 200 years and when he wakes up hes silver the hedgehogs archnemesis

okay. okay. so i cannot . function . i lied im gonna rant about it now
//luke personal story 4 spoilers utc
i am Devastated. luke pearce is so. he is so much. this route is too much. i havent played through the other ps4 routes yet but i am fairly certain nothing could ever top this. luke has ruined me for anyone else. how am i supposed to go for the other boys nOW?!?!?!??! i can't. the entire time, ill be like This Is Wrong. This Doesn't Feel Right. My Heart Does Not Beat For You
first, i gotta praise the case: the story about the hidaka sisters was really good, especially for a personal story. i did not think they'd put this much effort on it?? it was really dark and holy fuck, nami's voice actor popped off. she sounded really fragile and- im gonna sound weird for saying this, but her screams were voiced really well. like Man. it made me feel so sorry for her.
mc was SO AMAZING in the last few parts of the chapter. she is so?? brave?? perfect?? heroic?????? I'D fall for her too!!!!!! she was crying but she still went by her own to save nami even though there was a low chance of survival 😭😭 luke is a worrywart for good reason!! mc worries about luke injuring himself but she's equally as bad when sacrificing herself for others!!! (dunno how the other choice went, but i picked the one where she provoked daniel and she got beat up........ i wonder if i could have avoided that....)
oh god the lake scene. mc did such a good job to escape from the car. nami gave me a scare when she deadass broke her finger so she could fit her hand through the cuff like what the fuck ma'am!!!!!!! when she was close to giving up, i was like NO. YOU CAME THIS FAR. YOU BROKE A GODDAMN FINGER. YOU CANT GIVE UP NOW!! so glad mc talked her out of it. its also horrifying to think about giving up on another person for your own survival and witnessing how theyd sink after they drown........ or even worse, their dead body floating on the water........ i was thinking no way tot would do that right....
ANYWAYS. CAN WE TALK. ABOUT KAJI YUKI. LIKE OH MY GOD. GIVE THIS MAN A RAISE HE DESERVES IT. his voice gave me chills when luke screamed for the first time when searching for mc like GOD. THE PAIN IN HIS VOICE. THE WORRY. THE ANXIOUSNESS. KAJI YUKI HOW DO YOU DO IT. MY HEART SHATTERED INTO PIECES. like i could feel how luke was so desperate to find the girl he promised to save, and IM JUST SO
Tumblr media
I REALLY DID NOT EXPECT IT. THE DESPERATION SOUNDED TOO REAL. I CANNOT BE ANYMORE GRATEFUL THEY GOT KAJI YUKI TO VOICE LUKE PEARCE 😭😭 i am deceased. this chapter destroyed me.
THEN THEN THEN MC WAKES UP AT THE HOSPITAL. THE MOMENT BEFORE AARON AND XU WALKED IN WAS SO SWEET. definitely punched my pillow in frustration at the cockblock even though i have full knowledge that the confession is gonna be at the anniv card lol
i am just so. god. idk whats gonna happen in the anniv card, i just hope when luke tells her the truth about his illness, she wont cry too much......... why must luke be the dying cannon fodder. was the long lost childhood friend private detective national security bureau agent character not interesting enough hyv

monument mythos is like one part analog horror (that isnt that scary but i have psychosis so it fucked me up anyways) and three parts scathing critique of america
spoilers under the cut 
the antagonists literally worship a distorted, monstrous version of george washington that now resembles a huge leviathan more than a human. he feeds on the bodies of immigrants and then americans in some unending death machine, kept alive through bloodshed. theyre death cult extremists who literally raided the capitol on jan 6th (different year tho lol) so its very clear who the fuck theyre supposed to represent. they don’t care if other people die--in fact they encourage it. they kidnap people and force them to give false testimony. they will paint the streets red with citizen’s blood. they want their bastardized god of “true america” freed and give them ultimate power. and it ends with everyone dying and reality collapsing in on itself. 
the angel is a bunch of soldiers who died being tasked to man a death ray to shoot down bombing blimps their government helped create. after being vaporized so badly they converged into one being of energy, their goal was to get revenge and then peace. the ADA extremists force them to work for it, force them to go public, and eventually are killed by them. 
and freedom. freedom was originally envisioned to be a statue of a freed slave. america rejected this so the artist went on a mission to create the sword wielding sculpture and in a train of thought we can’t fully know cut himself up to be a part of her. she is a sculpture that is disillusioned by american freedom despite representing it. she wanted freedom herself and had her humanity--human skin she harvested from others and the consciousnesses absorbed into her--stripped from her bronze body and put into chains. she then was tasked with killing enemies of the country, chopping off their heads, turning them into floating, monstrous heads that were then later sold to be used in literal military machines. and in her final showdown with the angel, the government sicced them on each other hoping theyd just both kill each other. they did. and took literally everything else out with it. 
theres invariably more im leaving out but its all interconnected and very obvious this is a scathing critique once you’ve seen the end of season 2. america itself is not blameless. they played parts in this. but the major cause of the end of the world entirely are right wing extremists who would rather destroy everything and get their way--their bastardized vision of “true america” as they worship their mangled, disgusting “hero”--and actively try to cause as much bloodshed and destruction as possible. 
also i like the crab

NAME: Darius Ashtons
PRONOUNS: He/Him
FACECLAIM: Aiden Turner
AGE: 436
SPECIES: Noble Vampire
OCCUPATION: Mechanic
BIOGRAPHY: 
Darius was born the eldest brother to a noble by the name of Mathew Ashton and his wife Belinda Ashton, They were a fairly well off family who lived with every comfort life could possibly offer. Life was good, and around the time of Darius’s 135th birthday they found out that by some miracle, Belinda was once again with child. Truly a blessing in disguise, or so theyd thought. About half way through her term, Darius’s mother began to deteriorate. The second baby was putting too much stress on her body, and was beginning to slowly rob her of her ability to do anything. She could hardly walk, and only with the assistance of some kind of aid. She slept for about 18 hours every day and hardly left her bed, the poor woman could barely communicate let alone feed or do anything else.
It was a terrifying time for the family, Mathew had stepped away from his duties to be with his wife, feeling it was more important then anything else at the moment.. Darius had school, but Mathew insisted he continues his studies.. This went on for many many long months, Belinda was virtually unreachable when it was finally time for the baby to arrive. You may ask- well why not remove the baby? It was clearly killing her.. Well, his mother was so overjoyed to have a second baby, neither Darius or his father had the heart to even suggest they remove it.
That night, at around 1:35 am, The cry of the Ashtons second son Charlie, filled the operation room. A healthy baby boy, loudly squealing as he was cleaned up and taken to the nursery. His cry filled the hall and echoed back to the operation room, where Darius and his father stood over his unmoving mother. Her pale cheeks flushed with sweat, but lacking the glow of life ..a soft smile rested on her pale lips, still parted from the last words shed uttered. “Mathew... look... Our son, he’s beautiful.”  Darius had never seen his father cry… but oh how the male wailed in that moment.
Belinda Alexandra Ashton, was dead.
The years that came to follow were some of the lowest points for the Ashton clan. Mathew had been utterly destroyed by the loss of his beloved and spiraled into alcohol and gambling-filled depression. Darius left his schooling to care for his younger brother, with the help of the servants of course.. He raised Charlie while his father gambled and drank away their fortune. He was relentless in his spending, and by the time of his sad death, Via suicide. He’d left his two sons virtually nothing.
Darius was forced to sell what he could to help them get by.. But his father had already pawned off most of the things of financial value to feed his gambling addiction… Leaving the once breathtaking Manor in a state of vacancy.. Empty walls, with very little left within them but the memories made there. And to rub salt in the wounds of his fathers passing, not three weeks after his death.. Collectors came, apparently his father had not only bet and lost everything that remained within the mansion… He’d lost the estate itself. Leaving Darius and Charlie, homeless.
The brokers only allowing them to take two sets of clothing and a photo of their family from the home before they were thrown from the property.
The brothers spend three long years on the street, Never having worked a day in his life Darius struggled to find work, and struggled even harder to keep it.. He wasn't skilled in the kitchen- and the low-labor jobs humans did, just didn't pay well enough or at all. He got them by but it was not the life he wanted for his brother. Eventually…He was stumbled upon by a representative of a local club, Who saw potential in the male’s large build and intimidating look, offering him a job as their bouncer..
To this day its where he works, he’d recently been able to purchase a place for him and his brother, a single bedroom apartment that had a pretty decent amount of space for the rent. Very few people recognize him as a noble, which is honestly how he’d like it to stay. The memories of his noble blood scorned him, and despite his younger brother’s desire to reclaim their family home, Darius would rather forget the past and live on as a new man.
Some years into his life as a working man, Darius would meet and fall for a Beautiful female vampire... Who just happened to be the Daughter of King Octavian himself, Despite his noble blood, Darius was no fit for the kings princess and while he’d allowed their relationship for some time- the reveal of Kate’s pregnancy along with plots of running away together would force the rulers hand in a substantial way.
Stripping the man of all memories of his daughter and the life they’d shared thus far, tucking the memories far into the recesses of his mind where one would most likely never see them again... and just to be sure, he then had Darius sent away. Never to be seen again, not by Kate, nor his unborn daughter.
—Post-Memory wipe—
Darius enjoyed the simple things in life, living out in the quiet outskirts of bumbfuck no where Louisiana.. the man spent his days helping the locals with odd jobs and basic repairs needed on any old equipment they had that needed it. He loved the life her lived, and yet.. there was a yearning in his soul that led him to look elsewhere. He was the only Vampire in town, and had watched many of the towns folk grow old and die off. His friends and people he cared for all seemed to whither away so fast, and after a while it’d taken a tole on the vampire.
Then one day he’d been surfing the web and come across an article talking of the newly revealed nation of Paradisus, a haven for all those supernatural beings who didn’t want to live in the humans world could escape to. On a whim, he’d booked a visit to the island to have a look around and it didn’t take long before the man decided he belonged there.
Now some 6 month later, he had a small apartment there in the capital city, and worked as a Mechanic at the cities only autoshop. It was a fast job and one that paid well for the work it was.. He was living happily now amongst his people.. and yet.. something was missing.

Despite Darius’s large stature and harsh stare, he is a genuinely kind individual that was taught by his mother that all life was to be respected. Vampire or other wise, He wont hesitate to step in if he sees slaves being abused. Though there is very little he can really do, generally his sheer size and intimidation is enough to break apart bad situations.
He is quiet in most settings though can be rather charismatic if he is given the time to open up, showing more of what he was taught growing up.

Yes hi would love to hear about your Rumbie and Savvie head canons please!
(Also - love that Macaque was fully ready for that single dad life until he saw one of the kids using Wukong's powers and just went "fuck this one's my ex's kid ain't it")
sksjsjsjjdnks ok so this was an au based solely on the idea of macaque and swk trying desperately to teach two super powered toddlers to control their powers
basically the premise of this was what i already mentioned,
• maq has too much left over power from stealing swks and then a boost from lbd, and his body gets rid of it by pouring it into the next two clones he makes which turn out as rumble and savage
• im still calling them these names because 1. i dont want them to be confused with other peoples versions of these characters and 2. im desensitised to weird names from the tf fandom)
• rumble and savage are sisters in this au- because they were created to get rid of excess power, theyre kind of op and havent learnt to control it like swk did.
• savage has gold eyes and powers, she can mimic a lot of the powers of swk and macaque, but when she uses shadows they are shimmery gold instead of purple like macaques are. she also has sun wukongs lazer eyes and can summon a cloud but cant use it.
• rumble has blue eyes cause she has lbds powers mixed with macaques which you can imagine gives her a bit of a complex. she has ice manipulation and the ability to look through anothers eyes instead of fully possessing them, but she can speak directly into peoples minds as well as a bunch of macaques powers, the same as her sister. she doesnt fully understand why they came to see sun wukong, who can help with her sisters powers, but arent going to see someone to help her control her own powers.
• the actual story to this was that while macaque was working under lbd, he had the twins and lbd was going to kill them outright because she has a plan damnit and this was not part of it so macaque took the opportunity to blow up part of her mech and RUN with them.
• he was pretty badly hurt during the fight before they escaped though, and by the time theyd got far enough to slow down, he was a little delirious with fever. he didn't know where to go but his brain was going 'these are baby monkeys. baby monkeys go to the nurseries on flower fruit so theyre safe' because when he used to live on flower fruit, baby monkeys were all over the place but if there was danger, there were certain places on the island specifically so they could hide.
• theyre out on their own for a couple of weeks and, semi lucid, macaque leads them to flower fruit and basically passes out on the way up to swks house.
• fun thing about this tho is swks not home! hes been out for months with the crew doing i didnt know what (s3 hadnt dropped) so its not until like a day of them being there that swk comes back, bc he felt like something was wrong.
• havent nailed down exactly what happens when swk gets back but after a confrontaion, it becomes clear that macaque definatly needs help because hes still pretty injured despite rumble and savage doing their best to patch him up
• and also because rumble already iced him once while they were on the run and it freaked him out pretty bad because he thought lbd had found them, and savage destroyed one of their hiding spots by accident
thats all ive got for now and i dont have a name for it yet but sjhdsfdffsh i really like this concept it kind of reminds me of like xmen or something and comedy potential is a lot of fun

omg i must say that minseok smut is a recommendation from a friend of mine and ami cant sleep at night after reading it >< btw can I req a fic? maybe smtg with jealous and possessive jeno not wanting his s/o to be too close with other nct members?
考验我
pairings: jeno x reader
sᴜɢɢᴇsᴛɪᴠᴇ
Part 2
warnings: some dom and sub themes possessiveness, jealousy, slight hair pulling, marking
"J-jaemin...youre go-gonna crush m-me...." you struggled to even talk as jaemin laid on top of you with his arms wrapped around your body in a bone crushing hug. It wasnt even new for this to happen, but you just walked through the door and barely had time to say hi to anyone, even your boyfriend who just witnessed jaemin come running down the stairs to attack you.
"But I missed my little y/n!" He held tighter and you were sure today was the day you were going to die.
"Jaemin get off of her." Jenos low voice startled jaemin out of his trance and he quickly sat up.
You could've sworn you saw jeno glare at jaemin for a quick second before he smiled at you, giving you kiss, longer than what he normally does, but you didnt mind.
"Let's go up stairs princess."
You shook your head, "I want to see everyone else. Lets stay down here for a bit." Grabbing jeno, you pulled him down next to you but instead of actually cuddling him like he thought you would do, you rested your head on jaemins shoulder.
Little did you know jenos patience and possessiveness was starting to show, but he tried his best not to do or say anything. He knows you are normally really close with all the members but now he wanted that attention, making him more jealous than he should.
Jaemin put on a movie, the princess and the frog, and you and him were so immersed with the story. It was genuinely was of the best disney movies, in your opinion, and put that together with resting peacefully on jaemins shoulder made it even more enjoyable. As for jeno, you figured he was just a bit grumpy from practice earlier and just didn't want to watch something like this.
"We are back!" Haechan screamed and you leaped off the couch to go attack him with a bunch of hugs and kisses, along with the other members too.
"Did you get my order right this time?" You took the bag and searched for your food, "You did! Wow you did something right for once!"
"Oh please..." Haechan rolled his eyes, grabbing the rest of the food from you. "When have I ever messed up? Mark i can understand, but me? Babe I never mess up."
Did he just call you babe? Jeno wondered, and silently watched the two of you. Jeno didn't want to say you were basically on top of haechan, but you were. In the most best friend kind of way of course, but any one could take it wrongly, jeno didnt want to, but he was on the verge of pulling you away and showing everyone who you belonged to.
"Haechan! Give me back my food!" Jeno stared at the two of you, you jumped up to get the food above haechans head but it wasn't any use. Cursing your genetics for your short height you basically gave up until haechan grinned.
"Gimme a kiss on the cheek and ill give it back." You scoffed but its nothing different from what haechan normally did to you anyway. And it's not like you haven't kissed him on the cheek before. So you leaned up before someone grabbed your hair and pulled you back, dragging you as you whined in pain.
"O-ow, wh-what the hell jeno!?" Everyone watched silently, not wanting to interrupt whatever the hell was going on as you were dragged away to jenos room.
Once in his room, jeno aggressively threw you onto his bed and got on top of you, wasting no time in pushing you back down and attacking your neck.
Feverishly, you ran your fingers through his hair and bit your lip, trying to wrap your head around what just happened as jenos lips were sucking and his teeth bit as your skin, trying his best to mark you everywhere. His hands gripped your hips tightly, sure to leave a mark.
Moving down to your colorbone, he softly kissed you here and there before doing the same thing. Only it felt harsher than what he did to your neck. It was close to painful.
"Everyone better know who you belong to now." He pulled back and stared at his work. The hickeys were splattered all around your color bone and neck and to jeno, they looked so beautiful on you. "Now go back out."
You looked between jeno and the open door, "I-i can't walk out with these on my neck," you motioned towards the purple and red spots. "Theyd make fun of me."
"Sure you can and you are. Unless you want me to mark that pretty ass up too, I'd suggest you get going and do as I say."
You didnt move. You didnt want them to look at you like this, especially when chenle and jisung were also downstairs too.
Jeno leaned in close and you could feel his hot breath against your face, "But since your being shy how about i just fuck you in front of them? Imagine they walk by and see me destroying your little pussy? Of course they'll know who owns you after this." You let out a little whimper at his words and that was enough to rile jeno up.
Forcefully, jeno tore your clothing off your body and began his work. Lets just say, no one messed with you for a few days after this.

this information is only for my au reality change and the spinoff series! In this post there will be mentioning of blood and some gruesome actions involving the process of gem link, if you are uncomfortable with blood do not read this!
hey there, im your host CGI and today I will be telling you about the main mechanic of my au, gem link, and how it works. I will also be going over the differences of a gem linked and standard kindergarten gem. As stated before this post will mention blood and the gruesome process of gem link so keep that in mind when reading this. So with that out of the way, lets get into it.
What exactly is gem link?
gem link still is a part of my au's lore even in present times, and it originally started out as a method used to make people immortal, however as time progressed people started to use gem link for other things. Especially when they found out that when someone became a gem they would also gain its powers, so for instance if the person became a sapphire they'd gain future vision and whatever other powers they might have.
There is magic involved with both processes, ancient and modern. the magic used is a special spell known as gem binding or linking, and that spell is casted onto a gem after its been cut to the same size and facet of the gem you want to be. This magic in particular could easily be compared to a vampiric draining spell that stays on the gem until its placed into a persons body. The gem linking/binding spell allows the gem to suck in every drop of blood in the persons body and keep it inside of the gem until the gem is broken or shattered.
If a gem linked gem is shattered the blood inside will ooze out of the broken pieces. however this does not apply to cracked gems unless a large piece is chipped off or the crack reaches the gems core. Gem linked gemstones themselves are slightly stronger and harder to break than normal gems because the magic also helps protect them.
gem linked gems are gems, and have the same powers and abilities of a regular gem born from a kindergarten. However there is a drawback as the gem linked gem has to learn of their new power instead of already knowing how to use it.
also because the person is now a gem they also have a chance of having any problems a regular gem might have, like shattering, cracking and becoming corrupted. They are also susceptible to gem weapons if they did happen to exist by some chance, or if a gem summoned one. kinda like how mec can just casually summon a rejuvenator as her weapon because that was the chosen weapon of the gem she became.
Backstory
In my au, both steven universe, and magic did exist in the past before modern times. Some people who where die hard fans had tried to become their favorite gems, but with little luck. eventually an accident happened which would change how people would preform gem link, and it was gruesome.
People would have the gems already cut how they wanted, usually into the same shape as the gem they wanted to be along with the same facet, this was for better results. Then they'd preform a spell on the gem and strap the person upside down onto a vertical table with a funnel on the bottom. After that theyd place the gem into a bucket and put it under the funnel, the person was now ready for transformation. With everything done they'd cut the persons neck so the blood ran down the table and into the bucket. a few minutes later, theyd reform as a gem.
gem link went on for a while in the past until it was eventually banned due to a gem shortage and also because there where too many wreckless people who where destroying things by using their new powers without learning how to use it first.
because it was the cause of the major gem shortage and the chaos, some of the people retaliated and actually fought against the gems, eventually shattering them in the process.
Present day
well, everyone tried to forget about gem link over time, but it recently started to make a comeback due to rumors and legends. Eventually the people started digging deeper into this mystery and found out that it did in fact exist, but now that they had their suspicion at ease the people tried to make a less brutal way of achieving the link, and they succeeded.
And that is why gem link is a little less brutal nowadays. You still have to have a gem of the same size, cut and color of the gem you want to be along with the gem binding spell. However instead of placing the gem in a container to collect the blood you merely have to carve the persons skin into the shape of the gem and tear the skin off before placing it in the new bodily cavity.
The newer method was made so that theres less of a mess to clean up later because most of the blood stays in the body. This is a much better way than draining the body because not only is the blood fresh, it also stays in the body so the gem can soak up more blood and produce better results. However you unfortunately still have to deal with disposing of the body afterwards so, uhh definitely have that on hand before becoming a gem.
Keep in mind that the gem has to be placed in the same spot And position of the gem you want to be, especially if they have other forms!
Differences between kindergarten and gem linked gems
gem linked gems physical forms can be quite different than a gem that came out of a kindergarten. Let's take the main character, (mec) for example, next to the gem she became (spinel)
Tumblr media
right off the bat its obvious that mec is very tall compared to shorter, rounder spinel. Mec has a sharper, slimmer and more unkempt look, which is due to two reasons. Reason one is because she was transformed into spinel against her will by her sister. Reason number two is because deep down mec liked insane spinel but never admitted it because she was afraid to, and as such she ended up becoming her instead.
Ending outcomes may vary depending on gem type and willing ness to transform, so the person may be shorter, taller, skinner, or rounder than the actual gem. this makes gem link unpredictable because there's no telling what will happen, but a nearly perfect linked gem is very rare and no cases of complete gems have ever been seen.
before you ask, yes, gem link can also affect the person mentally too and its actually quite common. People who have a weaker mind can experience mixed memories, personality disorders or even loose themselves entirely. This is due to the gemstone forcing the memories of the gem onto the person all at once causing the previous and current memories to get mixed up. Most of these people would often be driven insane, loose their humanity, or even gain other personalities in the process.
now what about strong minded people? Well, they can still experience mixed memories and insanity, but it isnt as severe. This is more commonly known as memory bleed and it causes memories of the gem to mix in with your current memories. While it may be less severe and fixable with the right resources, it can still happen but its just less common in strong minded people.
power gaps
while we're on the topic of linked and kindergarten gems I'd like to point out the fact that there can be a significant power gap in between the two. Physical strength can be different especially at first, but luckily it is temporary and easily fixed with training. Gems who are too strong or much weaker than their kindergarten counterparts can go through training to regulate their power level. This is most common in new linked gems who are inexperienced.
because each gem is different ability wise, training methods may vary due to this. Gems who are more physical, will go through physical training, and gems who have more mental abilities will go through mental training.
when put into a fight together the kindergarten gems will almost always have the upper hand unless the gem linked gem is skilled enough to defeat them. Of course power isn't always everything in a real battle either.
Familiars
linked gems will sometimes notice someone following them around from time to time and that's normal. These are a type of projection and they are often known as familiars. they are mainly there to help the linked gem with learning their powers, but they can also just be someone to talk to. these projections will look like a different or similar form that the linked gem currently has, which would normally be the gems second favorite form.
Familiars are invisible to normal people and other gems, but if two gems who have different forms of the same gemstone they can see and interact with each others familiars. So they can be interacted with and they can interact back. Oddly enough familiars also seem to be completely solid to the gem they're connected to but nonexistent to other people. Kind of like a ghost in a way.
these familiars also know about the gems powers and can also use them to the fullest extent just like a regular gem would. Because of this they also like to show off a little
Summoned weapons
if a linked gem has a summoned weapon then that will be the automatic default weapon of the gem. if the gem doesn't have a weapon, but has a weapon they chose instead, then that will become their summoned weapon.
an easy example of this would be that we never see spinels true weapon, as she uses her powers most of the time, but she did have a rejuvenator. That rejuvenator qualifies as a weapon of choice because she chose to use it, and as such the gem linked gem who became spinel. Also known as mec automatically has a rejuvenator as her summoned weapon.
if a weapon has a specific ability like destabilization or rejuvenation, the weapons power may vary especially when its first summoned by the gem. The power level also depends on how much the user knows about it, and it includes things such as abilities, handling and maintenance.
For instance, mecs rejuvenator was very weak when she first learned how to summon it but it got stronger the more she learned about it.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
anyway I think that everything, but If you have any questions I didn't cover then just ask them!
the next post will either be about injectors or heartbroken spinels!

“What do you think of cocaine?” the question ran ridiculously loud in Eldrids ears, one that raised both concern and curiosity. Shutting the book with nimble fingers trailing over the inked pages, she furrowed together her dark brows as her gaze shifted to one of the other employees at the book store she managed.
It was a cute little shop, shelves lined every wall, even made little path ways between genres, easily explorable. A quaint shop tucked away in the nooks and crannies of Santo Padre. Easily accessible, if you knew where to look. An empty cart that was usually used to haul the new arrivals into place, but all that was done. There had been one customer in the last few hours, so it was really only Eldrid and one other employee, Asher. There wasn’t anything to do, so her nose was buried deep in another world.
“I beg your pardon?” she asked, her brows furrowed so deep it left faint marks in her forehead. Pushing her glasses up further the bridge of her nose, she set her book down in front of her, on the smoothly finished wooden counter where the cash register sat on.
Ashers eyes blew wide, scrambling quickly and putting his hands out in front of him. “woah, I meant - not like. I’m not asking if you want any or know where to get any.” he said, defensively. His hands kept up in the same stance. “I just meant that, well, what if our shop is a front for something... bigger?” he suggested, raising both brows. Eldrid shook her head at that, Asher always had some sort of conspiracy theory going, always believed aliens would take over one day, perhaps robots, thinks the world is gonna end up like some sort of real life version of the movie ‘Wall-E’. Some of the things this kid would come up wiyh were very out of the ordinary. He hadn’t been working at the shop for too long, a few months tops, he had gotten into college during those months but kept up his work there. A lot of the time he was able to study during his shift, and was paid the hours he was there. A sweet kid, looked rougher around the edges than he really was.
“I think that maybe you should get back to your studies.” she said with a soft laugh, watching as Asher, once again, protested, but shook his head instead. He set his notebook down.
“No, no. Listen, Eldrid. Look at it this way, in the nineteen eighties, about. The Orejuela brothers would run legitimate businesses, small, unexpected ones, as a front and to launder money they made while they ran drugs for the big bucks” he rambled on, earning another shake of the head from his manager. “c’mon you’ve never heard of the Cali Cartel? You have to have heard of them. The biggest, and one of the longest running cartels in the history of cartels!” he spoke with passion, an undeniable one, and he looked at her with his big green eyes, his hands out stretched.
Eldrid was about to respond, of course she knew what he was talking about, but she was interrupted, by him, and further utters of conspiracy. “How do you think we’re still paid, very well, hourly and over time, we get bonuses all the time, and there’s hardly anyone ever in here!”
She snapped her wandering gaze over at Asher again, having drifted to surveillance the shop shortly when the front door jingle, signalling someone entering. “not another word about it, Asher. Study.” she demanded, before turning her attention away from a quietly muttering punk at one of her tables.
“Good evening Mr. Reyes.” she hummed a soft greeting, seeing the grey haired man walk into the shop, followed by his youngest son, the only, of which, she’d met. Despite him only coming in as of recently, she knew him well, theyd chatter as he looked for books, she knew he preferred older pieces of literature and she’d started occasionally setting ones she believed they’d both enjoy, to the side. “and Mr. Reyes.” greeting him in the same polite manner as she did the older gentleman. Their town was small, and she heard whispers on the street, more so from people who took the shop as a quiet place to gossip. She knew Ezekiel had come out of prison not too long ago, yet he seemed fairly well put together.
The soft, kind smile never left the woman’s face.
“Hello, Eldrid. good to see you again, sorry for dropping in so late, Ez wanted to tag along again today.” the older one of the two apologized as she dove down, setting a stack of books on the counter before waving them both over.
“no need to apologize, we’re still open for another...” she trailed off to check the watch that sat on her wrist, it’s leather bands hugging it well. “half an hour so do as you please, these are a few of the newest editions that caught my eye, i figured you’d both enjoy these so have a look.” she spoke, watching as both men began to look through the pile, talking amongst themselves while she busied herself with other things.
“Hey, Eldrid.” Ezekiel started, several books tucked beneath his arm. “do you think that, if I come back Monday, this one would still be around?” he asked, his index finger stuck to a book that sat on the counter.
Raising her brows only to furrow them, Eldrid looked at the man incredulously, but nodding her head. “considering we aren’t open weekends, and are about to close, on a Friday, yes. i believe so.” she informed him, a hint of sarcasm lacing her tone.
“perfect, so I’ll take these, and be back Monday.” he said, and she nodded, ringing both through and wishing them farewell before she started, alongside Asher, closing up shop for the weekend. With her bag strapped to her shoulders, she locked the back doors, and the front ones, as both left the building. Going home for the weekend.
Weekends aren’t usually a huge deal for Eldrid, the shop had become like a second home to her, and never felt a lot like work in the first place. When she was in her little apartment, it was all about self care, and laying back with her dog laying on the corner of the bed as she did whatever she wanted during her time away from work. She wasn’t big on going out, nor did she have all too many friends, she knew one would expect more from a woman in her mid twenties to be more active with going out, but she preferred to protect herself and her peace. The next Monday morning, bright and early, El strolled down the street that led to her cozy little book shop. There shouldn’t be too much restocking, she wasn’t expecting any arrivals this weekend, so unless the boss was in during those two days, there wouldn’t be too much to do. Unlocking the front, and letting herself in, Eldrid headed to the back to start a pot of coffee for when Asher, or whichever employee that was to help her today, came in within the next half an hour.
She was in the midst of setting her bag into the shelf when several loud crashes interrupted the silence, dropping the the floor when she head guns starting to penetrate the front windows, glass shattering as bullets littered every corner of the front of her shop. She hadn’t realized that she had gasped, and held her breath, panting, she cradled her hands around her head, staying pinned to the ground until there was nothing but silence. Her ears rang loud, as sobs racked her chest, heaving, her panic set in heavily. She didn’t dare move until quite a bit later, when she carefully stood to her feet with tear stained cheeks. Shaking, Eldrid grabbed her phone and called her boss.
After three rings, the man on the other end picked up with a casual “Hello?”
“Mr. Galindo, it’s Eldrid Orejuela. Y-“ she was bound to continue but he interrupted her with a gleeful “Good Morning” and “How are things at the shop?”
“that’s actually what I was - I was calling you about. I just got in, and while I was making coffee.. uh.. There was shooting, and the windows are broken. I’m- I’m so sorry the windows are broken I don’t know what happened.” she stuttered a few of her words, being still shaken up. She was met with silence, then Miguel spoke up.
“Are you hurt?” he asked.
“no.”
“good. Have you called the police?”
“No. Did you want me to?”
“Please do so. I’ll be there shortly.”
After that, Eldrid hung up the phone to Mr. Galindo, and called the authorities, right after she hung up with them, filling them in, she dared to head into the front room. It was destroyed, bullets littered every shelf, lodged in many books, shards of glass laid in every corner. She placed a hand over her mouth, looking around, in complete shock. Her attention shot towards the door when the bell jingles, tears glazed over her eyes moments earlier. She didn’t recognize the man, but he wore the same vest that Ezekiel wore, though, he was taller, had more facial hair. He looked to her,she could’ve sworn that she saw a hint of concern in his eyes, but who wouldn’t.
“Um, I’m sorry, but we aren’t currently serving customers, there’s been... A minor set back.” she nodded, wiping her cheeks, and trying to sound professional despite the last few minutes.
“Clearly.” he spoke, in a ‘duh’ tone of voice. “are you alright? I saw vans speeding off while on my way in, figured I’d check if anyone was hurt.” he said.
“Thank you.” she said, feeling strangely drawn to him, the man was, a sight for sore eyes to say the least, his hands looked strong, his shirt hugging his biceps perfectly and the concern on his face.. Adorable, if he could be labeled as such. Eldrid tugged her cardigan tighter to her body, crossing her arms over her stomach. “I’ll be fine. Police is on their way.” she nodded.
Quickly approaching, the man caught her as her head felt heavy, then suddenly very light. On her way down, she had fallen into his arms, instead of on the shards on the ground. “maybe you should sit, did you get hit?” he asked, settling her on one of the chairs.
“no.” she muttered, rubbing her forehead, hissing at the pain that struck suddenly, very strongly. Pulling her hand back, she saw it had an all too familiar copper liquid staining her fingers. “I must’ve hit my head, when - when i was in the back I dove for cover and-“ she muttered, looking up at him when she heard the sound of police sirens echoing, hurting her throbbing head further. Seconds later, Miguel and Nestor walked past the threshold of the door quickly, looking for Eldrid.
“Eldrid!” Called out Nestor, someone who had been a friend to her for years, he alone, was the reason she had the job she adored, he’d set her up for it, suggesting the young woman to Miguel for the shop. He rushed to her side, kneeling in front of her carefully, he caressed her cheek, cradling her face in his hand. “are you okay? you’re bleeding.” he pointed oht, glancing up to the other man, his impression soured but returned to that same glance of worry when it shifted back to Eldrid.
“Paramedics are in the front, you’re getting checked out before anything else.” Miguel said, giving a nod to Nestor to take her out front. His eyes fixated on the man that had just had his hands on their Eldrid. She felt the tension, but couldn’t put her finger on it, with her head throbbing.
After a few minutes of getting poked and prodded, both with questions and medical supplies, she saw the man from a few minutes prior walk away from the scene.
“See ya around, Ellie.” he said as he walked passed her, she didn’t reply with much but a weak wave of her hand. Everything felt like a dream, it’d happened so fast, but also so slow. Nothing felt real. Did she really meet a man who saved her from further head injuries, and not get his name? Or did she imagine that? was her head really that out of place? Couldn’t be. Would she ever see this man again? Why was he there so early?
“It’s Eldrid!” She called after him, being met with only a chuckle.

Im the list anon again and boy do I have more for you but this time I also have some questions as well if your time allows and you are willing to answer of course. First with the other things I loved:
1) the fact that Ron warmed up to Draco so quickly! I genuinely think thats so much in character. Ron is not a distrustful person and as a middle child as they come is very easygoing and would for sure make stupid jokes at Draco
2) The patronus. My god the Patronus. I seriously put the phone down and made a small slow clap during that chapter. At first I was like hmmmm *insert unsure kombucha girl face* because almost all fanfics have him with a dragon patronus and leave it at that (and lets be honest at this point my expectations of you were quite high dont blame me blame your bloody brilliant writing) but then, and I dont know if you did this on purpose or not (I have a feeling you did) but the fact that the dragon was the same (pale white) wounded but still feral dragon that Hermione FREEED (!) from a bank (£££) dungeon, malnourished and used for its nature, surrounded by darkness, wealth and misery!! And it was Hermione who broke its chains!!!!! Is just *chefs fucking kiss* slow clap*
3) the way you describe sex scenes are so natural! Ive never read a fanfic or book that doesnt make me gag a little bit (I am not a fan of smut at all but ill go with it because of a good story) until I read yours. Its so simple but yet intricate and you make the entire act so intriguing and normal and intimate. Bravo.
4) I LOVE SASHA. I love that Theo fell for her head over heels and the way you portrayd her reminded me of a friend of mine who works as a sous-chef in London so I always pictured her when reading it!
5) Dracos inner voice is ON POINT. Like I genuinely think you shoud own the rights to that character now.
6) Ill say it again. I love Ginny. You should also own the rights to her character too.
7) my interest for Quiddich (even when reading the books/wathcing the movies) was on par, if not lower than Hermiones. You managed to get me interested in that too so yes another slow clap to you
7.1) Also such a clever career for Draco!! Made si much sense!
Now to some questions
A) What was the deal with Malfoy referring to Ginny as Weasly and refusing to aknowledge her Potter surname. And why did everyone kept correcting him? It was hilarious granted but I wanted to know whether the reason you included this time and time again had to do wih something deeper? Or was this included as just a funny recurring joke?
B) Why did you choose for Draco to have a “fantasy” to produce a patronus and not for example for him to have had to do that after theyd exchanged “i love yous”. Very interesting angle and i liked that it was sort of a loophole to all the ‘death eaters cant have patronuses’ but quite curious on the thought process
C) Why did you opt for Draco to remove his mark? Do you think that stands as reward for him more or for Hermione? Very smart solution by the way
D) if you have the time- Could you please elaborate a tad more on what the soul-bonding means? Why was it so taboo? At furst hand it seems like a very romantic/amazing thing to do with your partner right?
Lastly- Do you ever itch to make a second part to this? And in the most acceptable case that you dont, I always wondered what you had in mind for them in the future- because of the soul bonding thing, you mentioned that the generational curses will be erased, which means I guess that the Malfoys can have more than one child now, and girls as well. (I cannot believe im asking for this as I am the one to avoid any pregnancy fanfics but) do you imagine them with children and if yes, how many? How do they integrate muggle devices(I know youd agree wit me that Hermione would definitively bring some muggle stuff over!) and which devices would Draco really secretly like?
Pleasewriteasecondpartwhereyouelaborateyourthoughtsonthisthankyou.
Ok rant done. :D
List anon! You’re back with another amazing ask. I’ll do my best!
1.) I like to think Ron matured a lot post-war (not enough to stop making terrible jokes, though.)
2.) Regarding your beautiful analysis of my specific dragon breed for Draco’s patronus: How many points would you like for your Hogwarts house of choice? I will add that according to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the Ironbelly’s scales are normally a metallic grey. I will also add that I subscribe more to book canon than movie canon. In the book version of events of the Gringotts escape, Harry breaks the chains and Hermione (with eventual help once the boys catch on) destroys the ceiling so it can have a way out. The partially blind dragon does the rest of the work on its own.
3.) Thank you, that’s very flattering.
4.) Does your friend also get you into fancy restaurants and can they make salted caramel bread pudding???
5.) Thank you, it was one of my favorite aspects of writing this story.
6.) Thank you, she’s so fun to write and flesh out from her book portrayal.
7.) Haha, I felt so validated by that line of dialogue in Cursed Child when Draco tells Harry he wanted to play quidditch professionally, but wasn’t good enough.
Now to some answers:
A.) It’s definitely a recurring joke. It’s up to the reader to interpret Draco’s actions here: is he doing it to be a massive troll? Or is he genuinely not retaining the information of her married name because he considers this fact so unimportant that he does not bother to keep it in his brain? Troll, snob, or both, you can decide!
B.) I’ll address the second part of this first, because it was not intended as a loophole. I 1000% do not understand the “death eaters can’t have patronuses” thing. It makes absolutely no sense. Snape has a Patronus. But beyond that… Umbridge has a Patronus (a cat). If we’re letting that woman have a Patronus, then yeah, I think Draco can cast one. As for the vision that Draco used to conjure it… up to you whether that’s a fantasy or a glimpse of a certain ritual actually working. Draco’s thoughts on the matter: “An image of such striking tangibility that he might have already lived it, or perhaps experienced time in such a way that he lived it now.”
C.) I wanted Draco to have a choice, obviously a recurring theme for him in RN. For my characterization of him, that symbol on his arm causes him nothing but shame and self-loathing (see the end of chapter 36 during his heart-to-heart with Hermione). He’d already exercised almost every known avenue to rid himself of it before Hermione entered his life (he lists these in chapter 44). Hermione already loved him (and has told him so) by the time she’s figured out how to remove it: “I love the man you are today and I will love that man tomorrow, bare forearm or not. I simply wanted you, for once, to have the choice. It’s your body.”
D.) Ooh anon, you are tempting me here. I really hate to be coy, but you might see some future writing on this very topic.
I can at least answer the taboo part: I think soul magic in general (horcruxes, the use of unicorn blood) is quite taboo in the HP universe. As no one knows what happens after death (not even ghosts, Nearly Headless Nick says as much when Harry asks him point-blank in OoTP) I think most magical folk would think the intense ritual (blending magical cores) an unnecessary thing anyway. As Draco explains in chapter 48, since no one actually knows the effects or if it works, it’s considered a bit over-the-top since it’s probably futile anyway. It is also not a Vow with a death component; Narcissa is obviously alive in this story even though Lucius is already dead. I wrote the generational curse protection theory in as a dig at Cursed Child for the way they handled Astoria’s character.
The idea of it I think is romantic, but I will stress it is very dependent upon the intent of the two participants. To quote Draco in chapter 48 again: “To twine one’s soul to another showed a willingness to not only physically tether one’s self during your time here on earth, but to commit to a blending of your magical cores, putting faith in your magic to recognize its bonded counterpart in another life. Should other lives even exist.”
If you re-read Draco’s experience during the bonding ceremony in chapter 51 (starting from this bit: “The cognizance of his own powers never felt sharper, more familiar, but suddenly another power pulsed within to join with his.”) you might find it bears a resemblance to the trajectory of their relationship.
Lastly- I’ve left Draco and Hermione to their wedded bliss. I’ve got nothing planned for them beyond where they are in the final lines of chapter 51. I don’t have that itch to write more into their future because it would feel forced. Draco laid out his two envisioned futures with Hermione in chapter 48 when they discuss having or not having children. They are happy and content in the life they chose together. That’s all I ever wanted for them.
You will see more from this story though. I have an entire series of one-shots and outtakes from the published Remain Nameless timeline that I’ll start posting soon.
Thank you so much list anon! These were fun to answer!

SWAG ANOTHER DREAM SMP AU FIC IDEA THAT ILL NEVER WRITE POG
this is a very long post please im so sorry my brain it just
(tw for like slight possession n shit)
(sorry its all jumbled i write all of these in discord to my friend and copy paste them here please if u have questions ask me im always willing to talk abt this shit please it haunts me)
(context: i saw a tiktok abt the hc that both dream and techno are gods of some sort bc theyre mentioned in the tales of the smp by karl a time traveller and my brain just ran w it)
going back to the techno and dream are gods thing right so dream is a vessel for the god dream xd (??? work in progress youll know what im talking about at some point its really funny tho uve def seen clips of it) and he was possessed?? by the god after the server started (when he started going from super friendly with everyone to control/power hungry) when he started sacrificing everything for power so no one could have power over him? that was the god making him do it bc the god was terrified of not being in control since theyd lost it all to techno in their past. thats why we never see dream and techno fight and why we see dream extend help and support to him at times as well as respecting his boundaries and such bc theyre scared of techno (again w the best of 10 duel reference, techno killed the god in a past life which is why the god has been forced to use a human vessel to get anything done on the mortal plane) but when something that powerful spends pretty much any amount of time in something mortal and mundane like a person, the host body starts to change (hence the mask) i like to think that the god would be akin to that of a biblically correct angel?? like the ones w multiple eyes n shit yk so after time things start to happen to normal dreams body he gets extra sets of eyes and he gets taller and overall his body seems just Too Small for whatevers inside of him and thats why he (hc) started wearing the mask in the first place he knew something was wrong w him but he didnt want anyone to know even tho they would most likely help him he was ashamed that he was different in the first place so he started wearing the mask once the other eyes showed up. and i think that the god would talk to dream similarly to how technos voices work yk? except its just the one voice instead of many many small ones. and again with the mask thing when he lost to tommy and they took him in, part of his mask broke to the point where u could see just a bit of the right side of his face but enough to see that it Wasnt Right there were two eyes where there shouldve been one and spots on his cheeks bright enough to resemble stars and where the color of his pupil should have been is just a sickeningly neon green with nothing else behind it. so they let him keep the mask even tho they already know something is wrong but it clearly makes him Very Distressed when asked to remove the mask or told to give it up. blah blah blah god harassing its host bc it got them caught and thrown in a prison and dream goes ever so slightly insane having to share a mind and body with a literal ancient god w a vendetta against everything hes built whos forced him to sacrifice everything he loved and cared for out of fear yk the usual prison shit and then techno comes a long and breaks him out or whatever but on their way back to his house he drops a really cryptic line abt how 'its nice to see an old friend again' and 'i thought i got rid of u for good last time' and dream is just ???? what are u talking about?? weve never been friends and youve never gotten rid of me? what. until techno spins around and just 'im not talking to you im talking to the thing inside u' or whatever and dreams eyes flash some brilliant gold or sumn and boom this is ur fellow god speaking how may i help you and dream xd (that feels so wrong to say but) and techno bond or well ig just talk abt how the past centuries have gone and ig while xd is fronting (??? i think itd kinda be like DID in a sense w multiple people being able to front yk?) dream is in a sort of semi conscious state but still hears everything going on around his own body until hes thrown back into the drivers seat (i think that xd would only be able to front for short periods of time due to the vessel n shit that makes sense right) and hes so confused someone please help him hes just a dude who happened to get possessed by a god someone help him so when they finally get back to technos house he sits dream down and explains the best he can without literally melting dreams brain. which would also play into the 'technoblade never dies' bc hes. literally a god. mortals cant kill him unless they have idk some sort of super weapon idk and blah blah blah xd gets what they want and finally has the ability to leave finally leaving dream literally the shell of a man with no home friends materials or anything with techno to basically take care of him until he reaches some semblance of stability again (which would take ages, realistically (wdym realistically) going from normal, to a god sharing a body with you and speaking in you brain living as a single being together and hearing their thoughts, to back to normal but with all the memories of what you did and what they made you do and also no more god speaking in ur head it would take a hot sec to recover from) so he lives with techno (whos, not to mention, another god) for a while until he can fend for himself again and after a good year or so passes and no one hears from dream they start to look for him and see what happened bc he went from the biggest threat on the server to just. gone. no one knows where he went after whatever he did and they want closure. is he dead?? who knows. so george and sap set out looking for him and decide to ask techno for help since hes good w directions n shit also he was the last person to see dream alive so he might have an idea of where he is and they walk up to his house and knock on his door and techno opens it and just stares at them he knows who they are, dreams talked about them before but hes never met them really so he talks to them, getting through the polite hellos how are yous before sap finally asks 'do you know what happened to dream? no one knows where he went and we just want closure' techno huffs and tells them to wait there he (this is the basement door im using his arctic tundra house in my head) goes down the ladder to the second basement, they can hear him talking to multiple people (ranboo phil dream) but cant tell who everyone is before coming back up the ladder, back to the door. he tells them to wait outside he needs to get something first (its dream hes getting dream) theyre standing out by carls stable when the door creaks open and dream steps out looking around for who the fuck could possibly be looking for them he betrayed everyone and most people thought he was dead who could possibly be here asking for himself and not ranboo or philza and when he steps out, his green hoodie (memento made by ranboo to help him cope w the loss of the voice in his head) catching the morning light off the snow and he was happy and then he saw them standing by the house hed grown to call home at least for now he breaks. he missed them so so much it hurt. he never expected to see them ever again much less them come looking to see him but hes scared he realizes he doesnt know what to say there is nothing to say he fucked them all over he ruined everything and then hes being hugged. they missed him too. they dont forgive him jsut yet but they missed him and thats enough for him right now. the three of them stand there just being in each others presences and techno creaks the door open to make sure they arent trying to kill each other and sighs and leans against the frame smiling. hes happy again and thats the best he can do for him. he invites them all in and offers to explain everything to them to try and ease the blame off of dream bc in all honesty it was his fault but xd made it far far worse that it should have been (a bit late but foot note abt xd i think that they would be an idle god until someone w intense feelings of powerlessness and insecurity like awoke them from their techno induced slumber and inhabited dream to help him fulfill his desires for power and control) and by the time he and dream are finished its late at night and sap and george are ??? so u were possessed by a god who techno killed centuries ago in a duel and it amplified ur feelings of insecurity and ur thirst for control to the point of isolating urself from us and destroying everything everyone cared abt?? also technos an ancient god who lusts for bloodshed but also makes turtle farms in his free time?? are we getting this right????? and techno and dream are just yea thats abt it glad this all made sense then they all go to bed (its a small house dream has a lil shack like ranboos and sap and george somehow slept over there for the night) and in the morning sap and george leave again but promise to come back, they still arent ready to forgive and forget bc even tho it wasnt all his fault his emotions getting away from him is what caused this all in the first place so they do need time to process now that they know he isnt dead and dream continues to live near techno in almost full independence and eventually moves back with his friends even tho many still hate him. hes happy and for now thats enough. another foot note; even after xd leaves his being, he still has the extra eyes, glowy freckles n is xtra tall n shit that cant just be reversed but now that hes himself again these things take their tolls on human bodies so i think hed have something at least similar to arthritis bc of how his bones were literally manipulated bc of how strong ethereal magic or whatever is. so he would still wear the broken mask but he takes it off now and is ok with it being off hes working on getting better now that hes himself again and everyone living w/by techno is helping him with that. also i think that he would get blinks of xd's memories like from when techno was killing them and have sumn like ptsd panic attacks from it and techno feels super guilty abt it but theres literally nothing he can do except apologize and after the first few times dream stopped him from apologizing bc it is his fault but he didnt do it to him so it doesnt matter to dream at least and they live in pretty much harmony until dream finally moves back in w george and sap the end. he also started wearing the mask in the first place bc of the extra eyes but he played it off as being uncomfortable around new people and not wanting them to know what he looked like until he trusted them (bc that literally makes sense irl how funky is that) so sap and george never pushed him and when they caught him without it on on the rare occasion they wouldnt pressure him to leave it off or anything even tho they already knew what he looked like (when they respect ur boundaries </3) they just assumed that it was insecurity (it was but also mans had like 3 eyes so) and just left him alone

ok ive decided to just dump every thought i have on this post. buffoonery under the cut
ONE! AND HERE COMES THE TWO TO THE THREE BROS IN THE PLACE TO BE ICHIBANTTE DOUBLE B I shit i forgot the rest DOO DO DO DOOOO DO DO DO DO DOOOOO DOD OOOOO DO DOOOOOOOOOOO DOOOO DOOOOOD OOOOOD OOOOOD ODDOODOOOO i doubt thatd register as the pattern i intended it to to any one who read it. goddddd i need to yell and make noise but i CANTTTTTT flowers that bloom in the darkness its a sighting that is rare to come across nobody seems to have noticdd thay the power that has been bestowed is lust riding through the twilight this armory. protects my HEATRRRTT BADBADBABBDBADBABDBABBABBABDBDBBBBDBADBABDBABDBADBBADBABDBADBABDBADBABDABBBDBBADBANDBADBANDNAbDNABd cfnfn OFO GOD I WISH I COULD MAKE DUBSTEP NOISES OUT LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yeah being a scientist is gonna be cool and all but i really wish i could go into music or visual art or something like. i want to make things creatively i want to create sounds and colors and characters and words i dont want to spend my days in a lab or teaching biology to high schoolers who couldnt care less. i mean ok actually being in a lab would be cool hypothetically depending on what sort of science specifically i would do. ive been biting the insides of my cheeks a lt lately and i cant move my face without feeling the places where my cheeks have become thinner even just in the slightest amount. im worried about the message my sister and i’s comic might accidentally send because theres a lot of moral ambiguity and the “good guys” arent really good at all. there arent really any good guys in our story just people the narrative follows. ill take you baaaaack my valkyrieeeeeee youre coming HOOOOOMe i wont lose. hope. bBABBAAAAAAAAADADAADBABBABABA shit how longs that empty drink been there. since this morning ok. i really cant envision a realistic future for myself where im happy and fulfilled. its not very fun to think about and im worried about the state of the world becasue it doesnt look like its going to get better. like the actions everyday people can take willl never be enough and we just have to hope the people with the power to start fixing things will actually do so. but we all know they wont and thats scary. it really does feel like humanity is rushing headfirst into its self-made doom and its all because of a few people. which fucking sucks i mean like. can someone ping the mods on earth and get the fuckers permabanned or something. establish a unified planet where we help each other instead of trying to destroy each other at the cost of destroying ourselves. id go to therapy but these arent issues i can overcome, its genuinely how it is and theres realistically nothing to be done except try to cope with it while the people causing this dont bat an eye at what theyve done. every single day the people with power CHOOSE not to make things better. and for WHAT? im not religious but i hope to fuck theres an afterlife and theres justice because. god whats even the point otherwise? shit im about to start spiralling. ok ill try to think about something else. really the only way to get things done is to Do them and it seems obvious even to those who dont get things done but like. it truly is an ordeal because Doing things ends up being a more complicated process than youd think. we really are what we do and not what we feel but i think for mentos illness its kinda the opposite. even if you can hide your symptoms its about whats going on inside, and that inside stuff directly contradicts a lot of the efforts you try to make externally somehow. mind over matter, but what if the mind is deliberately trying to sabotage your efforts? then again, it isnt malicious in nature. just as much as you Are your mind, you are also a creature, acting on instinct, even if that instinct is thought through and rationalized so that you do not view it as such. in the end all that separates me from a cell is how much of me there is. how much of the world i can interact with. a cell can only interact with as much as it is a part of, but i interact with so much more than i will ever know or perceieve. countless cells, microbes and shit, ive changed and moved and killed and created more of those than ill ever know, because just as i can not perceive the infinite wonder of the universe, i can not perceieve the life that goes on at a certain level smaller than me. where does the line get drawn, for the life i perceieve? will i ever spell perceieve right? no. i have the power to spell it right, but i choose not to correct myself, because i have deemed that action worthless. is that why the people in power refuse to make things better? do they deem the safety of those controlled by their systems worthless? in the grand scheme of things, i suppose theyd be correct. someday we will all cease to exist, and none of our actions, our thoughts and feelings, the things weve seen and loved and feared and been apathetic to, will matter, because at the end of the day, we are a speck in the infinite expanse of the universe. but what if we werent? what if my actions have meaning, outside this room, outside this country, outside this galaxy? just because i think it is worthless to correct my spelling mistakes on a post no one will ever see does not make it so. the cells in my body dont find it worthless when i breathe, when i eat and drink and live and die. i think my laundry might be done drying soon

I had a really weird dream involving Dr Maddiman. Its a shame i can barely remember any of it and also it seems i woke up before it ended? Like i just had this overwhelming sense that allll the plot threads were gonna be wrapped up any second now and then BOOM awake. So just a whole bunch of random stuff happened with no real explanation at all.
It was some sort of post apocolyptic setting i think? Humanity was in these small isolated cities fighting against some sort of invading army but we never actually saw the aliens themselves. And some part of my brain was like "it makes sense its the same rules as a hairdresser and the design takes cues from a pack of AAA batteries". I have NO idea what that means! So basically everythibg was super vague and undescribed and dream-me just had a sense of already being a long time fan of this series and knowing enough to fill in the gaps. Apparantoy this was some sort of adaptation of a thing id already seen, but id been told the ending was different and more accurate to the manga? Also i wasnt actually a person watching this show i was still the protagonist of the show yet i acted like i'd been reincarnated and relived this week a million times or something
ANYWAY the way dr maddiman comes in is that he was some sort of 'brilliant but dangerous' expert the government had hired to help our fight against the aliens. It wasnt really explained why he was.. yknow.. maddiman. Like is this meant to be that ghosts also exist in this sci fi universe? Was he a half alien hybrid instead of a yokai? Was it just human maddiman with the personality of yokai maddiman due to ptsd...? In any case he didnt seem entirely tethered to the laws of reality and nobody knew exactly how he pulled off all his scientific miracles. He was treated as the only guy who could understand the mindset of the aliens, but that also made him dangerous because he trapped in the delusion of everything being okay and fun and happy and he often did evil things by accident while having good intentions. But they didnt have anyone else who'd cracked the code of the alien weaponry so they had to put up with him. He was just sorta assigned a crack team of secret agents whose job was Be The Old Man's Friend So We Dont All Die. Dont let him realise how the world is all destroyed and such, just play along with his goofyness and try and remind him to do his important work while dancing around why its important. it was super creepy how he was locked up and gaslighted like this!! And he was all 'oh im sure when im done with my ultimate experiment i can go home to my wife and kids' and yeah it was implied here that the same backstory applied :( 'distract the old man and validate his false opinion that his family is still alive and waiting for him' :( poor sci fi madds :(
Oh also for some reason he seemed to be wearing elements of Adventure era Dr Eggman's outfit? But just the general style of the coat and the wearing goggles that he never actually uses. And he had a very warm and cuddly autumnal colourscheme
Anyway i was part of the Super Secret Grampa Cherishing Division whose job was to act as his assistant but also secretly be packing a bazillion weapons to neutralize him if he poses a danger to humanity. But i started to genuinely care for the guy and question the 'any atrocity is permitted for the sake of saving the world' philosophy of my bosses. Also it was just very weird how it was this post apocolypse alien fighting action thing yet i didnt see ANY OF IT cos this story was confined to this one laboratory. It was surreal hearing about all this stuff happening offscreen!
I think Maddiman's main project was some sort of dimensional transport thing using salvaged alien tech? It was just a door in his lab that usually led to a closet but if he got it working itd teleport us straight to the alien base and save the world. And a lot of it wasnt explained but i got this great sense that itd all come together with a great twist ending evebtually but then i woke up before i got that far. Same for the reveal of this maddiman's new sci fi backstory and soooo many other dropped plot threads. Alas!
So anyway: closet. Closet with one of those bead curtain things cos i was thinking about them when i fell asleep. It was supposed to be a teleport but when it malfunctioned it had really scary negative effects warping people's biology and stuff. I remember one of the test subjects was sent in for a five day trip to a specific alternate dimension but then when they came back itd been several years and theyd had to survive in a deadly wasteland and been mutated into a hellbeast. And maddiman had a huge breakdown because he felt like his recklessness and optimism towards this experiment had caused this mistake to happen, and he'd never realized just how awful the consequences could be. He was babbling motor mouth discussing theories for where it went wrong and there was something like 'we'd only tested it for one day trips and assumed that just programming two of them would equal two days but actually with each additional number on the screen it multiplies the days by 3" And there was something about like...the bead curtain was the machine rather than the door itself? Like trying it on a bunch of different doors around the lab to try and find a way to cure this person.
And there was some sort of artificial intelligence computer with the personality of an adorable lil girl, who helped maddiman do calculations and stuff. She missed the mistake in this calculation cos her concept of linear time and the limits of human organs was kinda undeveloped. She only existed within the realm of numbers after all, and didbt even have functionality to record footage of her human friends's faces. No idea wtf a human looks like! So maddiman was lost in his desperate grief of potentially accidebtally killing or at least mentally scarring a person and the government would probably kill them now if they saw they were a super mutant. And he was sobbing and begging this AI to help, his last resort was her maybe being able to see a brainwave that he'd missed. But she was freaking out cos she didnt even fully understand why maddiman was crying let alone what to do to fix it. Eventually she did manage to find a solution theough some simple different logic thing that she had from her perspective as a computer. And that person was saved but still traumatized and maddiman had a moment of realizing just how high stakes everything was and freaking out. He was like 'whats wrong with my head, why didnt i notice that, why was i so reckless, why cant i seem to grasp basic human logic that i need right now" Having a big existential crisis of 'wait how did i even get in this lab, where's my family and why do i seem to have superpowers'. Protagonist mission: hide all the goddamn mirrors to avoid this weird ghostgramp (...aliengramp??) from realizing he's dead (..or an alien??) and losing control of himself. And everyone was running around talking about 'containment procedures' and poor maddiman didnt know that if his panic attack continued he might just straight up be killed for outliving his usefulness. So the protagonist was desperate to help him calm down and it sucked SO MUCH cos they had to lie about his past and weave the web of deception around him again for his own safety. In the end they just hugged him close until he calmed down, and all the other employees were like GASP THEY ACTUALLY TOUCHED THE EVIL DANGEROUS SUPER EVIL MAN and protag was like 'i am 1% away from slapping the next bitch who insults this grandpa'. And it was super depressing cos once he'd calmed down he seemed to start forgetting that anything bad had ever happened?? And he was really panicking and scared cos he didnt understand why he was forgetting, and he knew he had to cling onto something important but he didnt know what. And then five minutes later he was back to haha cheerful nothing is wrong and i love doing my fun science in this room im never allowed to leave. And protagonist was crying the tears that this poor gramp wasnt allowed to cry :(
Also actually i think maybe he was a ghost AND an alien? Like he was a scientist who died in some sort of tragedy back when the aliens first invaded, but along the way he'd been infected so his body got back up as a twisted combination of human and inhuman. And this was something unique to him, like he just happened to have a genetic mutation in his blood that was totally undetectable in life but happened to mix unpredictably with this alien virus to turn him into a hybrid instead of just killing him. So the government was very interested in finding a way to replicate this and create new supersoldiers, as well as just taking advantage of this dude's confused mental state that granted him a unique understanding of alien tech that made him more effective than other scientists. And, of course, also made him easy to manipulate :(
And i also had a feeling that maybe his backstory was mixed up with Adventure dr eggman? Like here it seemed he had a daughter instead of a son, and she had a similar death to Maria Robotnik where she was assasinated by the government he worked for, and it tipped him over the edge. I think Maddiman-alien-scifi-dude originally died trying to save her from being used in some sort of experiment? Like she was already dying of a disease and thats why maddiman took this job to have access to powerful government technology to try and look for a cure. But when the whole alien apocolypse happened, the evil government decided to use her for experiments cos she was 'basically dead anyway'. Theyd just lie and tell maddiman she died of her illness. So this was how they found out that this particular family's bloodline had a mutation that let them form a viable hybrid with alien dna. They were turning this poor kid into a monster in the basement while lying to her dad about her being dead! And maddiman was about to commit suicide from having no reason to live anymore, with the hell of this apocolypse world and the false impression that his kid was already dead. But somehow monster-daughter sensed this or something and broke out of containment to try and save him, and when he saw her he was able to recognise her even in her twisted state. So when the soldiers gunned her down in front of him and fed him some lies about this not being his daughter, he just completely snapped. He tried in vain to fight back and take down as many of them as possible in revenge, but well he was just a simple round dad with no ability to fight a government. So he was unceremoniously executed along with his kid and they shoved the bodies back in the lab to continue testing. "Damn that overemotional science dad, he made us execute our most valable test subject! But at least this way we can analyze his corpse to see if the mutation is passed down on the patrilineal side." But at some point during the fight, monster-daughter's blood had splashed on her dad and gotten into his bloodstream. So the seemingly dead body suddenly got up out of the morgue and started sucking people's blood or something. And this led to the current situation where they have him locked up cos he's a valuable test subject but also hey he has 100% reason to kill all of us and we're screwed if he remembers his past. Also i think the computer AI thing was his subconcious attempt to recreate the personality of his daughter even if he couldnt remember she'd ever existed :(
Anyway at some point things escalated and there was this final showdown versus both the invading aliens and the evil governmebt guys. I think there was some corrupt greedy politician dude who stole maddiman's teleporter tech and sold us out to the aliens cos he wanted money and power or something. And probably predictably the aliens just threw him off a bridge after he gave them the thing, because seriously even this evil army thinks these government dudes are too evil!
So this big actiony event was happening and Maddiman was freaking out like 'no no no i cant leave the lab everyone wpuld be mad at me, i dont even know what its like outside this room' even when he was in the middle of being attacked by aliens. He was forced to face his repressed memories to survive, and he naturally had a massive fuckin freakout! And i think maybe when protagonist character was trying to protect him he accidentally lashed out with his powers and hurt them, and he was so horrified thinking another person he cared about was gonna die because of him. Protagonist was like 'dont worry gramps its just a scratch' but he'd already freaked out and run away into the battlefield to his heavily implied death.
BUT THEN at some sort of moment of dire need, he came back all powered up and re-memoried and was like 'i have every reason to despise humanity but im not gonna let more children die because of these damn corporate monsters (and also literal monsters which are infinately less scary)" And he did some sort of great sacrifice to save the protagonist at the cost of his own life, and it was super dramatic falling from a building into a lake of fire or something. While sobbing and smiling peacefully thinkibg "did i atone for my sins? Will i be able to see my family again?" As his smiling face sunk beneath the flames and the protagonist cried out into the abyss...
Aaaaand then i dont really know what happened in the big battle and i also never found out wtf the solution was to fixing the transporter thing or how the aliens invaded or any of the million plot points that were non gramp related.
I just remember that when we all saved the day and defeated the baddies we found that maddiman had actually survived and it was a big hugs reunion. He was like "OH YEAH i totally forgot i literally already died once and regenerated from it, and this was the entire start to my story. My bad!" *shrugs inexplicably not dead arms*
So yeah in summary im glad my brain summoned up a universe where my favourite sad granddad is literally immortal now, but also why did it torment him with an even sadder plot than his original one
