#mutant busters time loop au

[spinningbagel]

TL!Au is such an interesting AU to me. While timeloops in themselves are not the most interesting troupe, I love thinkig about how it'd affect Sheriff mentally to experience the loop, how his mental health would slowly decline with every death. I don't even think he'd notice his own mental decline, too stressed and focused on getting out of this godforsaken loop to notice the way he's slowly loosing himself to his own head until has like... a manic episode (This'd likely be the uh,,, murderous rampage loop because he's had this realisation that nothing he does matter in the end, as long as he dies the loops will continue. To him, in his mind, he's practically a god who can get away with anything thanks to the loops.) 

Also I think the fact that he can't tell anyone about the loops plays into his mental unstability, like, he can try telling them about the loops but when he inevitably dies, they'll forget again. It'd drive him up the wall to know he's the only one who can remember the repeating day. Sure that changes later down the track (for better and for worse) but at the time, it would be incredibly frustrating to not have a way for them to remember the days repeating and draining to have to be the only one to have to live with this burden. 

I also like to think about how he'd feel about the scars, and his appearence in general I personally think he'd hate seeing himself in a mirror, every scar on his body a constant reminder of every single failed loop. Like, his eye, he got that torn out and couldn't see out that eye every loop after that. There's also the rope burn mark around his neck. I think you can figure out how that loop went. Like, he would hate his body and mirrors in general. Doesn't want to be reminded of his failures.

And by the time he finally manages to get someone to remember the loops, he's so far gone that he can't fully remember how he used to be, his perception of himself is so scuffed that he can't remember how he looked prior to the loops. And it's not like he can rely on any photos. Like him, they change with every loop, updating to reflect how he looks by the next loop. His only refrence at this point is an old, old photo of Ryan and him. 

And mentally, he's not stable anymore, hasn't been for at least a few hundred loops. He's self destructive, looking for ways to end the loops early when the weight of everything gets to him.  He's not sane anymore like, genuinely he's not sane anymore, he's manic and psychotic, more often times than not he's not there mentally. 

Anyways,,, I treat my favourites so well (lie)

Erm,,, blood warning for the drawing and warning for implied/mentioned murder & suicide for the writing.

Timeloop!Sheriff is not sane 🫶🫶

When you’re forced to relive the same day over and over, one loop or another you’re bound to snap, not caring if your bullets hit your comrades or your enemies. You don’t listen to their pleas, only watching as you paint the white snow red.

And when the fog in your mind clears you’ll stare at the bloodbath you’ve created and you’ll weep. You’ll weep for the allies you killed, you’ll weep because no matter what you try or what you do, you’ll be doomed to repeat this god awful day.

And then, you’ll laugh at that realisation. You’re doomed, forced to repeat this day over and over and this entire thing is pointless crying over. You can just put a bullet in your head and this entire thing is over.

So that’s what you do, your body joining the others only to wake back up in the safety of your room. You etch another mark into the wall and get on with your day, wondering what else you can do to keep yourself entertained.

Please 🙏 tell me abt all of your au’s omg omg pls, I wanna hear all abt them and the lore you got for them /gen

A,,all of them,,?? *stares at paper* I-,, okay,,??

So we’ll start with my main two since they’re the ones I’ve made known and will be easier to sum up first

Homeless!AU

Based on the ‘what if’ question of: “What if Vegan-Su didn’t help out Sheriff & defended him during the scene where their locked in a cage & Sheriff being a mutant has been revealed to the whole group”

Basically, I’m this Au, Vegan didn’t help out Sheriff in convincing the others that’s he’s still the same person regardless of being a half mutant. So once they’ve escaped & gotten the mushroom they just..kick him out. No real remorse or empathy. They don’t try to hear him out or anything. They just make him leave.

He does leave without a fight or anything, after all he’d unfortunately been expecting this outcome. And it’s not like he can really go back to the life he lived before so he hangs around the abandoned city.

Nothing is being done to prevent his mutation anymore aside from the occasional stealing vegetables from his old friends so it spreads (slowly) up his arm. He also ends up being able to understand the mutants unique language & speak it.

With a growing addiction to coffee beans, a hoodie that he found in the dumpster and no friends he lives his life in the city for a few months, at some point during that Shooter starts coming to the city to try and find Sheriff, feeling incredibly bad. Sheriff doesn’t particularly blame Shooter (though he still does partiality) he actively avoids Shooter and any potential interactions.

I’m a bit unsure on how to go about the group seeing Sheriff once more and the angst that will follow with, I’ve tried writing out some possible drafts but nothing seems to stick yet.

ZA!Au

My most recent in this list actually, it’s basically a post apocalyptic world filled with zombies and there’s no saving the world or anything like that, the story mainly just focuses on the group slowly building trust and a family they care about.

It starts off with just Sheriff, a 20 year old man who’s a known wanderer, never staying in one place for too long and never getting close to people, he stops at one town to stay the night and that’s where he meets Shooter where, against his will he enjoys the company of and quickly sees as a friend. He pushes those feeling down for the time being though.

The story (imo) truly kicks off once Shooter decides it’s a good idea to steal from this town. The townspeople are not fond of this at all and find stealing punishable by death because of scarce resources. So they’ve got Shooter at gunpoint, on his knees begging for some kind of mercy (it’s around the middle of the night I feel the need to add). Sheriff who was previously asleep sees this shit going down and it sets him off. I’ll spare most details but just know he gets his hands on a lighter, a car and a shitton of gasoline.

Shooter and Sheriff run (drive) off and end up at Brutux’s place, a guarded lighthouse. Going against anything they’ve ever heard about this guy they enter seeking refuge for the night, which they get. It’s pretty calm despite everything.

Until the next morning when the trio wake to yells of guards down below and a lot of crashing. Turns out two people (Vegan and BP) are stealing supplies and are getting away with it too. Brutux drags Sheriff & Shooter along to catch them to pay off him letting them stay the night.

They catch BP and Vegan at some point, probably when their in the fortress/lab thing. Surprisingly the sibling duo offer to let the trio stay with them since it’s high up and much safer. And despite the suspicion they agree.

There’s a lot of mistrust in the start but slowly. Like snail pace slowly they build up trust.

In this Au, Ryan and Dr. White are both dead fully, both being turned to zombies. With Ryan being killed by a 15 year old Sheriff but not before biting him, leading to Sheriff cutting his own arm off with an axe. And Dr. White being killed by Began & BP, having forced his children to kill him.

Time loop!Au

This one is a little under a year old.

It’s an AU where Sheriff is forced to repeatedly die during the final confrontation with the SM, the SM killing him each time (before the reveal of him being Ryan I should add) he’s got no idea why he’s being forced into this, at first being in denial, thinking he’s dreaming up until the fourth loop.

He keeps track of his deaths on a wall in his room in the ship, carving into it with a knife. There’s hundreds of marks, each signalling another death. There’s a small corner in amongst his tally’s. For when he ends the loop early.

Any scars that may’ve been obtained during a previous loop stay with him for all other loops and becomes normal in future timelines. How does he figure this out? When in one loop the SM fully takes his eye out before killing him. He wakes up and can only see out one eye. No one asks him about it.

Eventually he tries telling someone (I’m still not saying who 😈😈). He tells them everything, about the loops and his deaths. They think he’s crazy at first. At least until he shoots himself infront of them and they come running into his room, panicked he was dead. So now two people know.

That’s as far as I’ve gotten with this one, it’s been awhile since I’ve thought about it, might needa dust some cobwebs from my mind.

Hero!Au

The Au title speaks for itself. It’s a hero Au. In a world where powers exist, hero’s and villains do also.

Sheriff and Shooter are popular vigilantes, both being the laws nightmare and best friend. They help out with things though their method of doing so is sometimes questionable.

Sheriff has electricity based powers and pretty powerful ones at that, people with electricity powers are pretty high up on the danger scale given just how much they can do with their abilities, though it differs depending on the person.

For Sheriff he has to constantly have electricity in his system and so more often then not you may catch him sticking a fork in a socket and just,,absorbing the electricity. He’s capable of causing power outages if his powers are too much on the fritz. So yeah, not someone you want as an enemy.

Shooters abilities (if he truly has any) is unknown to the public, he’s Sheriffs partner in crime vigilante work and is responsible for all their tech and weaponry. Some people theorise that his ability lets him create almost absurd things from pretty much nothing (ima spoil it, it isn’t that)

Vegan Su, BP and Dr. White are all hero’s, top ones at that. Well less so Dr. White since he’s more focused on science and things rather than being out there actively saving lives. I’m yet to decide on hero names for the sibling duo and abilities for them.

Brutux is a villain but not your standard super villain, more so a criminal who deals with illegal things like drugs and certain weapons. He actually gets along quite nicely with our Vigilante duo and doesn’t tend to bother them as much.

Max and Jim are Sheriff and Shooter when their not out being vigilantes, the two work at a fairly small grocery shop (think IGA small- size wise I mean) and their manager is Brutux playing civilian (known as Alex to them) obviously Shooter, Sheriff & Brutux aren’t aware of each other’s double life identities since they do well to keep ‘em hidden. The truth may eventually come out though.

There’s a little bit of betrayal in this Au because at some point, Vegan pretends to be a vigilante to get close with Sheriff & Shooter- either to recruit them as hero’s or arrest them for several crimes.

That’s all I’ve got so far for this Au, like the time loop it’s been awhile.

Okay this is a very long post holy hell. And there’s one or two that I’m yet to talk about but currently my hand is cramping from typing this all up on my phone so I’ll do them tomorrow after school. This took like,, an hour to write ☠️☠️

Anyways though, hope you’ve enjoyed my insanely long ramble on my Au’s that I would never have shared if not asked to (I don’t really mind, the only reason I never shared them is because I came up with them all and thought it’d be too many & people would get annoyed at me for having so many but this fandom is starving, I don’t think people mind if I’m Au central™️/hj)

Some more Timeloop world building or somethin idk 🤯

So uh. This AU has gods. A god really. God of time unsurprisingly. So anyways, they’re the reason Sheriff is repeating the same day o er and over and the reason why he can’t technically die.

The reason for this god deciding to make him repeat the day over and over again? They found Sheriff interesting. The first time Sheriff dies, he’s not supposed to come back, he’s supposed to just die and Vegan does everything else on her own.

But that doesn’t happen.

Instead, this god drags his soul to their domain where there’s a brief, one sided discussion where the god basically talks about humans and their limited time, how he usually just lets them pass into the afterlife. Not Sheriff though, his life is entertaining to the god and they’re disappointed when it ends. So, they turn the clock backwards, undo Sheriffs death and sets him back to the morning before. And they do this every time.

So basically, the loops are just this gods blessing (curse if you ask anyone sane) that makes it so the day repeats everytime he dies. The only way to break the cycle being to get past the day without dying. Of course the likeliness of that happening is slim because I enjoy giving characters everlasting trauma but anyways.

#kinda unrelated #but in one of the loops #he gets past the part where he normally dies #and up to where the hole is collapsing #and he thinks he’s pretty much in the clear #but no. a rock falling ruins that #Danganronpa style #mutant busters #aaaaaaaa #shit post #mutant busters sheriff #mutant busters time loop au #bagels rambles #yippie

[spinningbagel]

If the Supreme Master in the time loop au eventually becomes aware of the loops and uses that as a form of torture, well that’s not any of y’all’s business.
