OOOOOOOH HEHEHEHEHEEE I LOVE THIS!!! VARIETY

There's gonna be a Shit Ton of loredumping under the cut so. uh. buckle up I guess.

Mason C. Anderson ; Alternate SV S/I 📝: How would your story in canon go? How would you influence the events of the original story? I think at most, Mason's scenes would be deleted scenes during the start of the movie, before the bodega scene. In Mason C.'s story, he was working at Alchemax as a fellow scientist several 'levels' under Johnathan for a few years. Mason always admired him, but never made a move, as he assumed that Johnathan would never be interested in someone like him. Johnathan eventually made the first move and talked to Mason, which lead to them becoming good friends at work. Then, it evolved to an outside-of-work friendship where they'd visit each other's places when they had free time.

It was only a day before the collider explosion happened that Mason decided to propose the idea of going on an actual date with Johnathan that weekend, which he agreed to. Mason was sick on the day of the explosion, so he had no idea what happened until he saw the news reports. He immediately assumed that Johnathan had died and grieved the loss of the man he had developed extreme romantic feelings for, even if they weren't actually dating. He decided to quit the next day, never wanting to associate with Alchemax again.

Before the events of the bodega scene in ATSV, Mason was shopping at a store and heard faint whispers close by that sounded like... Johnathan? He didn't really believe it was his voice until he got closer to the source and approached Spot, looking up at him with wide eyes. Mason had grown out his hair and looked generally unkempt, so Spot didn't recognize him at first. They awkwardly looked at each other until Mason spoke and reached out a hand to touch the humanoid figure's arm.

"Johnathan? Is that you?" That immediately sent Spot into a panicked state, assuming the worst was going to happen. He was going to be ridiculed for his appearance again, just like how everyone else at Alchemax treated him. He began to flail around, trying to hide his 'face' with his hands and stuttering about how it wasn't him. Unfortunately, the strategy didn't work.

Mason began to cry as he hugged his arms around Spot's waist, Mason's head only reaching up to below his chest. He babbled through tears about how much he missed him and how he thought he had died. Those words successfully made Spot stop panicking, looking down at Mason in shock before placing his arms over the other man and letting out a big, shaky sigh of relief. Finally, he'd found someone who didn't care what he looked like now. He didn't even notice his face was blushing. He didn't even know he could blush!

Funny thought: Mason would show up during the montage of Spot and Miles popping around everywhere. He'd look across the street at them fighting and just say "Johnathan?" with a confused look. He wouldn't really influence the plot any; just a cute addition.

Mark Caldwell ; DBD S/I 🪐: What would be your most popular AU and why? The only real AUs that exist for DBD are the role swap AUs, so it'd probably be that. Mark would be a killer instead of a survivor, but I can't think of a good power concept off the top of my head for him. It'd probably have something to do with deafening survivors for brief periods of time, since in his life, he was a bassist in a punk band in the early 2000's. The guy is loud. I think his name would be something like "The Punk" or something, idk.

Mason Anderson ; SV S/I 🛌: What tropes show up in fics involving your ship? Oh, geez. Probably the most popular would be the 'all the other characters ship them together' trope with him and Noir, if we're going for pre-relationship. During the relationship with Noir, it'd probably be friends to lovers since that's literally just how their story develops. I like to think the rain kiss trope would also be one because I am just. such a sucker for it. AND IT FITS NOIR PERFECTLY!! It's literally a constant trope in noir crime-fiction.
