Many Roads Diverge in the Woods - Second Run - Part Six
The Beginning | Previous
The results are in.
Tumblr media
You've made your decision. Wonder what you'll see? You all are being so incredibly reasonable this whole run fdhjakslh None of you are like "hmm, what if I saw the bad choices?" Or, well, some of you might be, idk, I can't see into your heads. Wonder how you'll deal with this choice, then... :)c
The poll at the bottom to decide what happens next is only open for one day, expiring on April 20th at 12:00pm PST. Part Seven will be up the next day, April 21st, at the same time.
<><><><><><><><><><><>
“Bro, it’s not gonna be that hard to tell us what you’re talking about,” Chase says.
Marvin raises an eyebrow. “It’s also not gonna be that hard to walk three meters from where you’re standing to the room.”
It’s farther than that, JJ says.
“Semantics.”
“Marvin, I think what we are trying to say is that... you have been acting a bit unusual,” Schneep says delicately. “We need some trust.”
“Yeah, maybe when we walk in you’ll lock us in the room or something,” Jackie adds.
“What the fuck? No!” Marvin folds his arms. “Okay, fine, if you guys are being so weird about it. The room is pretty much empty except for some chairs. But there’s a pattern burned into the floor that I know is a ritual circle for spells.”
Jackie blinks. “What?”
Marvin throws his hands in the air. “See? You have no idea what that means! My explanation is fucking useless to you!”
Even that is better than going in completely blind, JJ says. Thank you, Marvin. We’ll check it out now.
“Finally. You guys are being weird.”
“No, you’re being weird!” Chase insists. “You’ve been weird since we came down to see what you were doing!”
Marvin starts to snap back, but stops. He frowns, like he’s considering something. For a moment, he looks worried. Then he pushes past it. “Well... I’ll try to stop being weird, then. Come on. I’ll go in first, if you’re so worried about me locking you in.” And he turns around and walks back into the room he came from. The other four glance at each other, a bit concerned, but follow him.
The room is exactly as Marvin described, empty except for four wooden chairs. A single dim bulb lights it up, though there are still shadows around the edges. And on the floor—wooden boards instead of the blank concrete in the basement hallway—is a design. Chase traces the lines with his eyes. A circle. With lines crisscrossing back and forth, and six strange symbols burned into the empty space in the center. The four chairs sit on the edge of this circle, evenly spaced between each other.
“So... you said this was a ritual circle?” Schneep asked. “For what?”
“I don’t really know, actually,” Marvin says slowly. “I don’t recognize the pattern. And actually, patterns aren’t really used that much, it’s usually just the circle, maybe with some runes around the edges if you want to be fancy.”
“What about these?” Jackie points at the symbols in the center. “They seem important. Do you recognize them?”
“I... kind of?” Marvin says. “It’s weird. I don’t know how I know this, but it’s something about... life? And... change? Transformation, o-or maybe transference, I don’t know.”
“Why’s it burned into the ground?” Chase mutters, tapping one of the lines with the tip of his shoe. “Seems like a lot of effort.”
“I’m guessing whoever did it was planning on using it a lot.”
JJ frowns. Why is this in Jack’s cabin? Along with all those magic books in the other room? I didn’t think he was into that sort of stuff.
“Maybe it belonged to some other family member,” Jackie suggests.
Chase gives the room a second look, as if he could find something new. And, surprisingly, he does. “Hey, these chairs were in the other room,” Chase says. “With the table. Marvin, did you move them in here?”
Marvin stares at Chase for a moment. Then at the chairs. He blinks, confusion clouding his face. “I... don’t know. Maybe? I—ow!” Marvin flinches a bit, pressing a hand to the side of his head.
“Are you okay?” Schneep asks.
“Yeah, I just... my head... started... hurt...” Marvin’s words trail off. He slowly lowers his hand. And he steps further into the room, going right up to the symbols in the center, looking down as he stands on them.
“Marvin?” Jackie asks, concerned.
Marvin looks up. “I remember what one of these means,” he says in a slow, almost monotone voice. “It means ‘blood.’ And I found something else in this room.” He puts his hand behind his back and then takes it out again. A knife is clasped in his hand. A thin blade, almost a dagger.
“Whoa!” Jackie steps forward, holding his arms out protectively in front of the others. “Okay, uh, cool? Th-that makes sense, I guess. Now, uh, can you put it down?”
Marvin grins. “Does it make you nervous?”
“No!” Jackie protests.
“I-it does a little,” Schneep says quietly.
“Really? What are you afraid of? That I’ll hurt you? I’m hurt that you’d think that.” Marvin flips the knife in his hand. “I’ll show you how hurt I am.” Slowly, he raises the shaking knife to his throat.
Chase gasps. He pushes past Jackie. “Marvin, no!”
JJ also tries to push past him, but Schneep grabs him and pulls him back. “Be careful!” Schneep hisses.
“Be careful?! Be careful?! Are you seeing this?!” Chase takes a couple steps forward. “Marvin, put the knife down.”
Marvin just laughs. The blade presses against his neck.

When you say somewhere else, do you mean still in the place? Or did they get spat out in another spot in the city instead?
...
Its not going to be the latter, is it? -:)
Your question gets directed to him—or, them, technically? He's lying on the floor of a dark place, completely black except for floating orbs of green light. Slowly, he groans and opens his eyes, looking around. "...huh?" He slowly gets to his feet. "This... is this the Place? Is it?" He looks around, frowning.
There are two figures nearby. One man with brown hair, an eye-patch covering his right eye, a green scarf around his neck. Another man with fading dyed-purple hair under a cap, clutching a small black journal to his chest. The first looks over at him—or them. "Hey. Are you lost?"
"I... We... I think I can f-figure it out?" he says. "Who are you?"
The man's eye flicks over him. "Hm. Hard to explain. But we're kind of similar."
"Wh-who are you?" The second man asks.
"I'm... We're... I guess you can call us Sean?" he says. "Or... Jack. Or Anti. I don't know." He shakes his head. "S-sorry, I... think I have to go."
The first man nods. "Good luck."
"Thanks." He smiles at him a little, then takes a step forward—
And suddenly he is somewhere else again. A round room with black walls and ceiling made out of a nondescript black material. The floor is red, brighter in the center and getting darker towards the edges. In the middle of the room is a hospital bed. "This—this is the Place," he says. And the green glow of his left eye disappears, leaving just the right. "This is just what it looked like when I first fell in here," Anti says. "Well... except for the bed. I'm... I'm really, truly, sorry for what I did to you."
His eyes flicker, and the left eye glows, the right dimming. "Why did you do it?" Jack asks quietly.
Anti again. "I... was angry. I-I thought you guys had abandoned me. You hurt me, so I wanted to hurt you. Especially you, who I thought forgot about me deliberately."
Jack again. "...Maybe... on some level, I always suspected. That we were the same. Especially when I first started glitching. But I couldn't believe it. Not someone so...well, you know. I... I really wanted to punch you in the face. Still do, sometimes."
Anti chuckles. "Well. I can't say I don't blame you." He turns around. There is suddenly a door in the wall of the Place. "Yes... just like the first time."
"Where's that go?" Jack asks.
"My room, I think."

it's the sillyyyyyyyy! it's my favorite sillyyyyyyyy!!
i'm- ditching the description format that i tried with marvin, because dear GOD i am horrid at writing descriptions-
so, here's robbie! a college student studying video game design and the child of our favorite doctor henrik, and his late wife maria, who unfortunately has passed due to complications when robbie was born.
"i am cringe but i am free" has always been their life moto, even back before being "cringe" wasn't a worry to have, and especially nowadays now that they're entering adulthood. and it helps that their papa has always been supportive of everything they do, from their artistic journey to their queerness. he really helped give them the confidence to just be themself :}
if you like my art, be sure to reblog it as well! it helps get my art to more people who might enjoy it! ^^

I feel like I start all of these with "hear me out" and then I go off on a tangent that's borderline incompressible.. BUT HERE ME OUT-
JSE Ego Arcane AU
Jackie as Vi, Chase/Anti as Powder/Jinx, Marvin as Caitlyn
This is mostly brought on by the fact that the way they portrayed Jinx's delusions in Arcane felt very similar to Anti's glitches LMAO
Also to be very clear there's no "possession" element here, Chase IS Anti, Anti is a new identity Chase adopted for himself because "Chase" was too weak and what got his family killed.
(also obligatory marvelsepticeye inclusion)
I'm trying to think about how Henrik or JJ would fit in here? I'm open to any and all ideas!! (My mind feels like Henrik would be perfect for Viktor)
Please someone see my vision here and add onto it because I kinda feel like I'm screaming into the void and going crazy just a little bit <33333 /lh

Want to info dump about my egos and Anti’s little ‘family’ (gaggle of kidnapped people) in that AU
Jackie/Hoodie and Sheep/Henrik are kept separate from Sunny/Chase and Carver/JJ, usually spread out in the living room of the mansion Anti hijacked. Kitten/Marvin is definitely the worse off one though, they’re stashed away in a spare room upstairs since Anti’s hypnosis doesn’t work on them. Can’t have them ‘infecting’ the others with ideas when they’re so obedient!
Carver and Kitten were the first ones he snatched up, as you can read in the stories I’ve written. They were living in a stolen house in Japan to hide, but Jackie was lured in to save them, and he actually did manage to grab Marvin and run. Anti caught them the minute they hit the nearest city, and literally dragged them back after a scuffle where Jackie was stabbed. Jackie was kept in a spare room, chained up and beaten within an inch of his life. Without his antipsychotic and under constant influence of hypnosis, he was incredibly easy to turn into Hoodie.
Hoodie was allowed to take care of the pets in the beginning, patching their wounds and getting them fed and clean. Anti dangles the threat of taking his antipsychotics away over his head to keep him obedient. Anti blots out cameras and just steals the ziprasidone for him.
Eventually, in fact before Jackie was fully Hoodie even, Anti packed them on a flight while hypnotizing all three of them and took them to the Netherlands. The hypnosis was so straining on him that he collapsed while they were getting through the airport. To his shock, the three of them gathered around him worriedly, and Hoodie took him to the hotel on his back while Kitten and Carver simpered worriedly beside them. Hoodie laid him in bed to recover, and for the first time Hoodie told Anti he loved him, pledging loyalty while crying. This is where he started liking the idea of having them all as a family.
Chase was taken next. Hoodie was forced to help with the process of breaking him in. Torture, hypnosis, and the destroyed image of his eldest brother made the already meek Chase easy to make into Sunny. Anti likes him, he’s always liked him, so he and Carver were made to live in a separated room as the favourites. They are the ones showered in presents and they’re given larger portions of food. Anti makes it clear to Hoodie and Kitten that if they don’t ‘prove’ themselves as loyal and obedient they won’t be fed.
Henrik was caught last, while Chase was still being tortured and brainwashed. Watching Chase and his brothers act like the demon was their family was frustrating and stopped Henrik from becoming Sheep for a long while. Chase was moved on to the main house and Henrik was still being tortured. He was broken down and his brain was so scrambled that he became quiet, meek, and incredibly jumpy. He curls into a ball and freezes every time any danger appears - this gets him called useless very often. He’s meant to be the little doctor for the group, and he tries as hard as he can to please Anti by doing so.
Anti moves everyone to Germany using a large SUV that he made Hoodie kill the owners of. Hoodie now cannot leave, he would be immediately caught for murder without Anti’s protection.
In Germany they set up home in an abandoned mansion, and there they stay. Hoodie and Sheep live on the bottom floor, having roam of the whole of it. They also run errands and have a deal of freedom compared to the others. Kitten is kept in a spare room alone, being visited by Anti for either affection or torture depending on Anti’s mood. Kitten is utterly hopeless, not able to be brainwashed yet trapped and abused by his own family.
Sunny and Carver are the favourite little darlings. They wear nice, clean clothes and eat well enough for Sunny to be chubby. Sunny has retreated into his mind a bit, acting very childlike and foggy due to the hypnosis and abuse. Carver is aware - painfully aware. He’s belonged to Anti ever since he was born, and despite the hypnosis he knows very well that this is abuse - he knows how wrong it all is. This is not the way the story is meant to be. But, powerless against his brothers, all he can do is watch.

"Now hold still, Dapper."
Tumblr media
When I said JJ hates string, it was for a reason. Anti loved sewing into him, especially into his ear cartilage and on the surface layer of his skin. It gave him a power kick, putting strings into his puppet.
