#maeve using her charm to help against baddies is simply fantastic

[msommers]

i simply think it’d be fun for hero au maeve to 1) work on her charm ability enough to where it’s no longer limited to very specific phrasing and a difficult to maintain state, and she has her hero friends/lovers help her learn to properly defend herself. and 2) have all of that boomerang back and smack everyone in the face by a corruption arc where her abilities become, frankly, terrifying and it’s hard to handle because nobody wants to hurt her if they manage to get close enough to do so

#witcher verse: heroes #ch: maeve sommers #the first idea is fun for all sorts of reasons #maeve using her charm to help against baddies is simply fantastic #& i think her getting a montage of everyone teaching her various ways to defend herself and escape danger is top tier #and the second idea is that. i simply. think she deserves the sexy scene of commanding an entire crowd to do what she likes with her charm #do i know the circumstances of her going all Still Maeve But Very Much Not Maeve?? absolutely not #but it's a superhero au and that means Dramatic and Extra and Ridiculous are part of the contract #she probably got snatched up by a new big bad and Converted before anyone could get to her or smth idk #i'm just here for the image of maeve immobilizing all the witcher!heroes with some simple command and them realizing Uh Oh as she trots away
