omg that part two snippet of girldad! carlos had me literally screaming, the way you write is just so *chef’s kiss* i can’t wait for the to see what happens next
its gonna be so cute when charles starts speaking french with ana and they both start bonding, carlos already has it down bad for this man but he’s going to be in love love with this man when this happens
the idea of the both of them being dads is just so… compelling, we really need more fics of them being dads and being all domestic
im sorry for this ranty ask but i just got so excited when i saw u posted the snippet, i love that fic so much already
and if you don’t mind, could you post the giver au pls :))
sending you lots of love mal, thank you for everything!! <33
Hi! Do not apologize!! Every fic writer hopes and dreams that ppl will get excited about their fic 😭 and I completely agree - we need more charlos dads. They are literally so married and charles wants a kid so badly...
Anyway yes! You can have a snippet of the Giver AU - i've shared a bit of it before, but essentially, the premise is that society requires everyone to take suppressants to dull their emotions, eliminating pain/conflict/anger/fear etc., but also eliminating passion/love/joy in the process...
I'm thinking of doing a major rewrite of this actually...so honestly what you read here might look very different by the time I post it but 🤷🏻‍♀️
“Hola, teammate.” It’s accompanied by a grin and a nudge to his arm. Charles raises an eyebrow.
“Hello, again.”
They’d seen each other not forty-five minutes ago, but Carlos seems to insist on greeting everyone like it’s the first time that day no matter how long ago they parted ways. He also keeps calling Charles, ‘teammate,’ like he thinks anyone needs to be reminded of this. 
“What are we doing now?” Carlos asks, rubbing his hands together like he’s impatient to get started. 
Charles doesn’t know why he would be - they’ve been doing promotional obligations all day, and his head is starting to hurt from all the bright lights. It’s all videos and photoshoots for their sponsors and social media accounts. Tomorrow will be the more important agenda - seat and race suit fittings are the first things on the schedule.
“A video for the fans, I think,” Charles says, in answer. “Where we ask each other questions.”
“Ah, so I can discover all of your secrets.” Carlos lifts his brows up and down in a way that Charles isn’t sure he’s ever seen someone do. 
He knows it’s a joke - one of Carlos’ strange ones, where he doesn’t really mean what he says. But Charles still finds himself wanting to protest the remark.
“I don’t have secrets.” Why would he? He has nothing to hide. Carlos rolls his eyes.
“Okay,” is all he says.
Charles has the sense he’s disappointed him somehow. Not that it really matters, but he’s still trying to figure out his new teammate. He wants them to get along, since they’ll be seeing a lot of one another. So far, he feels like Carlos is perpetually amused by him for reasons that Charles can’t determine.
“The questions are prepared,” Charles adds. “They wouldn’t have us ask whatever we wanted.” This seems obvious to him, but maybe Carlos isn’t yet accustomed to how structured things are at Ferrari. 
Practically their every movement is planned by some coordinator on the team - the only time it can’t be is in the car, when the drivers themselves hold the steering wheel. And even then, the team tries to control everything with strategy and radio communications during the race.
Carlos gives him a searching look, which Charles attempts not to shy away from. He isn’t shy, anyway. Poor choice of words.
“Do you ever... Mm- how do you say it?” Carlos takes a second to himself, mulling over whatever it is that he’s trying to ask. “Do you ever go against the script?”
“The script?” Charles frowns.
“The rules. The path. The plan.” Carlos studies him, as he processes the words, like Charles is a bug in a jar. It’s not a sensation he particularly...enjoys, though he can’t pinpoint why. 
“I’m not...” He swallows, unsure of himself. “I don’t-”
“Boys!” someone is saying from across the room, gesturing them over. 
There’s a beat of silence between them, and then Carlos is saying, “Never mind, mate,” patting Charles on the shoulder. 
He walks away then, and Charles is left with a strange hollowness in his chest, like he’s failed at something - like when he’s driven badly or made a mistake on track. But he hadn’t done anything like that. He’d just been talking to his teammate...
He takes a deep breath, then moves to join Carlos across the room.

Shithead, so i got an ask and i wanted to answer it but Tumblr is a bitch and i acidently deleted it >:( i am so sorry T^T. But it was basiclly asking for my thoughs on my magical girl au, and i shall still answer. Unfortunetly like i said basiclly all that i have written has been deleted :( so this is a rewrite.
Okay it like really late where I'm from (0:15 to be exact) but i want to answer anyway (im saying this will be ranty and not comprehensive probablly but i will try). Also i have adhd so everything i write is a ramble.
My thoughs on the season two dads/season one kids is that they all became superheros basiclly, in this au the dodler did get unleashed, but it is much less of a terrifying ancient force and more of a campy villian power source, it does turn people evil just more in the (idk what his name is english) miraculous the moth guy power kind of way. People basiclly become acolytes but they are brought back to basiclly normal by the end of the 'episode' and everything is dandy.
The dads all have powers and they do get silly costumes and stuff, they are less girly and more grown up then the kids are tho.
I haven't really put much thought into it but here are my ideas for their powers:
Grant- kinda green lantern kind of power where he creates concepts out of energy, it is mostly weapons tho, and lasers (to hone in him being a sniper)
Nick- fire manipulation (obviously), his powers are similar to Taylors, he does get a cool ass demon power up tho, im thinking like a dragon ball or just anime in general inspired transformation. I also want him to have a guitar or something (maybe as a skateboard considering season one demonic) maybe marcelline inspired. I kinda also want to give him spliting (idk how to call it?) powers (to represent his duality, as nick and nickolas) where he can split into nick- more raw power, more music focused side and nickolas- more strategic, and elegant and protective side (now im just thinking of left brain right brain by bo bunmrnham lol). Nickolas is blue and nick is red, and his costume is red and blue. (This is kinda inspired by that one teen titans go episode where they get split into multiple facets of their personalities because as someone that desperetly wants to be hyperanalyzed by people it is still stick in my brain).
Terry- idk honestly, i think it would be slightly similar to hermie in design, because of him being in theatre, i want to give him some more brainy wizardy powers. Also something wampire agecent. He wears a doctor strange like robe and everything.
Sparrow- speaking with animals???? Again idk yet, i want the twins to work together, maybe i'll incorporate some of him being the lovewolf, i also want his powers to be just a tiny bit boring and not flashy like the others because that is what he strives for. I also want the twins to have some of the dodler like horror stuff, maybe some mind manipulation powers. They were the lord of chaos after all.
Lark- again i want the twins to work together, Lark would be the more destructive force in the duo, the raw power while sparrow is the support, im not very sure tho. I kinda want to give them something like the power gloves they had, or maybe just Lark has them. Their costumes also paralel each other.
The dads got their powers after the dodler got unleashed, so they are much more developed than the teens at the start, they do have secret identities but they are also known to exist to the public it just works in a clark kent- superman like fashion where even with minimal effort their identities are somehow hidden. The teens unlock their powers like in the show, when their dads get kidnapped (maybe?), Nick used to work with them but he was deemed to destructive and now works more vigilantish and solo so he is not kidnapped. The teens get their powers with their badges, which probablly get turned into jewelry or crystals or something im not sure yet.
Now to talk more about the teens:
Normal- his powers seem inoccent but they also get freaky, i got inspired by blumm from winx club and starfire from dc. He can summon a giant mech basiclly that looks like teenie, he has energy blasts, and does a lot of gymnastics (which don't always work) he also has heling powers. After talking with his dad (i have no idea how that interaction works in this au yet) he learns his powers are kinda cringy and wierd and he tries to supress them, because of that he doesn't transform for a while, still trying to help in fights. He does eventually transform (in a fight with the mayor) but his powers still act up a lot, his outfit changed afterwards becoming a wierd combination of his friends outfits and then coming back to the previous version but without the teenie stuff and slightly altered, he is unable to summon the giant teenie after that. Lark and Sparrow were not the greatest about hiding their secret identities (i honestly belive Lark just straight up told normal once what they were doing but Normal thought he was joking and was kinda oblivious. I think it would be funny if there was a gag where it is insinuated that Hero is a literal superhero (and is actually good at it unlike the teens) but no one realizes (like wearing a suit under normal clothes, disapearing randomly etc.). Normal is very much struggling with his powers, he has a lot of raw power but he never fully sinced up with it so it is contantly malfunctioning because he tries to supress them (which is kinda Sparrow's falt because of what he told him. He is literally so clumsy. Everyone thinks the magical girls are cool so no one suspects him because they think he is a loser even tho the teenie stuff was pretty oblivious. (Also some magic thing is probablly going on so people don't realize it)
Link- he has at least a bit of super strength, because really confident in the costume. Has magical soccer balls (that souns stupid) he summons. Fights mostly with his feet. Also a healer. Has the most functional costume probablly. There is definitly a gag where at first his costume is very fancy and has a lot of stuff on it, but he just feels like the texture is icky so it quickly changes to a more practical one. His pockets are endless probablly. He straight up tells Marco he is the magical girl (i have to figure out their team name and hero names soon) but because of magic bullshit Marco doesn't really get it (he does try to be supportive tho). His wings make lot of noise. I think there is a wierd glowy aura around him at all times. He can also make force fields, shield and similar to grant magic weapons.
Taylor- he is the most hyped one about the magical girl stuff. He schetches them all the time (he has been making a manga at this point, and it is actually kinda good). He does not realize that Hermie is also a magical girl, but he does tells him everything (they are besties and you can take that headcanon from my cold dead hands) and hermie does beta read the manga so like he knows their identities. He rocks a skirt so good. He is imune to fire, has better resistence to most things in general than the others, his costume works on anime logic and so does he (he gets slapped quite a bit into concrate), he has really fast regeneration. After the power up outfit change he gets demon horns, bigger wings and a full on tail his hair also becomes fire and he can move really fast like in anime. He can do that anime thing where you cut something and it breaks after a while. He is glad to be a part of a team, he was pretty lonely for a while in school. His mom does know about him being a magical girl, she thinks its cool but it does freak her out sometimes (she knew about superheroes for a while now because of nick, they actually met because of him being a superhero).
Scary - she is indeed scary. Many people wondered if she was gonna be a villian or betray the team, there were bets going on on when she is gonna go vigilante and kill some bad guys. Also has fire powers, the only one that doesn't have wings and she is jelous (she half jokes that's its because of sexism) she does fly like katsuki from mha tho. She is crazy powerful but not great at taking pain, which is not good because she is not great at dodging. Did not tell her mom about the superhero stuff (their releshonship is not great at the moment). Sights a lot. Also glad to be on the team but pretends not to be. Enjoys being a hero. Is the only one to actually swear on the team.
Hermie- was an antogonistic trickster at first. Wierdly doesn't have actual powers, or at least claims not to "its juat acting" which seems impossible. Flirts with normal a lot. His mask changes expresisions. Can and will break the fouth wall. Will stare right into the camera. Link still dislikes him but they make a good team. Wierdly has a lot of useful information. If you try to take of his mask a new one is underneath with a slightly smaller face underneath. No one knows how he sees through it. normal has yet to figure out he is Hermie, so has Taylor, Link and Scary know tho. He does get really badly hurt once, thats where his burns come from, and he does get an outfit change and becomes more unhinged afterwards. He does wear makeup underneath the mask, he has taken it off once to look at normal and it has cracked after he got burned. Somehow always in the place of the fight or close to it.
Bonus:
Ericka- would be a much better superhero than the teens if she wanted to, but she doesn't have the time. She does ocassionally help tho. Does not need powers to kick ass.
So i want this au to focus more on their school lives and silly things. The villians are less body horrory and more campy etc. The story will probablly focus on the teens and their shenanigans and dealing with responsibilty of being superheros and basiclly child soldiers. I think after the doodler got unleashed the sky didn't turn red and they didn't have to switch realms but the dads still did fuck up in some way idk in what way tho.
I think thats all for now? Sorry for the ramble (and for deleting that ask accidently :( ). It is like 1:30 and i have to wake up early but this felt important. This are juat my loose thoughts, most of which i just came up with on the spot. I hope to do some more content for this au in the future but who knows. If you take inspiration from this i would love to see it, tag me or use the tag, please. Anyways, asks are always apprecieted as is feedback and your own thoughts. (I love when people leave tags :) )
