Steve, despite knowing it's very much probably not going to happen, messaging the Corroded Coffin band socials to ask if they'd maybe wanna turn up to his DND obsessed kid brother's stag do for a 'surprise campaign' his friends are cooking up cause it'd make his entire year to have his favourite band and favourite DM rock up to his stag do, might even outshine the wedding.

And of course, Eddie HAS to go to this thing, he's gotta, they get tons of random as shit messages, but rarely have they been invited to a DnD stag do.

so they say yes.

And they go, and dustin maybe loses his shit a little but in a good way.

And maybe Eddie should have paid a little more attention to this Steve's account because holy shit has he just found his future husband?????

"The rain fell in heavy sheets, and I knew it was the day that would change everything."

"Do you ever wonder what life would be like if we'd made different choices?"

"You promised you'd never leave, and now you're telling me you have to go?"

"What's the one thing you've always wanted to do but haven't had the courage to try?"

"Why are you always pushing me away when all I want to do is help?"

"I never thought I'd see you here."

"We used to be so close. What happened to us?"

"Sometimes, I feel like I'm living someone else's life."

"Is it too late to start over?"

"I thought I'd lost you forever."

"The clock struck midnight, and with it, my life took an unexpected turn."

"The dusty, forgotten diary I found in the attic held secrets I never could have imagined."

"I can't believe you said that to them. Do you realize the impact of your words?"

"What do you want from me, after all this time?"

"You were always the one who got away."

"Why did you come back?"

"I've been keeping something from you, and I don't know how to tell you."

"Remember when we used to dream about the future together? What happened to those dreams?"

"You're not the person I thought you were."

"I thought I was doing the right thing, but now I'm not so sure."

"It's never too late to change, you know."

"Let's make a pact: no matter what happens, we'll always find our way back to each other."

"I've been searching for you my whole life, and now that I've found you, I don't know what to say."

"We're in this together, no matter what."

"You're the only one who knows the real me."

"I never thought I'd say this, but I need your advice."

we all agree Kokichi is a criminal who likes to snoop around in places that he shouldn't be, yk- trespassing for the hee hoo

so what about urban explorer Kokichi?

he has a whole youtube account full of these videos of him scurrying around abandoned structures. i think he'd favor abandoned theme parks and carnivals, climbing around on old roller coaster tracks and breaking into employees only areas.

maybe he has DICE help him by finding a way to power on any lights that still work but never acknowledges it in any form- no note of the fact that it can be powered on or how it was done in the descriptions or comments- people who watch his videos are baffled because the places he goes to really shouldn't be able to be powered on like that. he even reactivated some animatronics he found one time that somehow hadn't been stolen and sold on the black market yet (DICE were the ones who ended up taking them before looters could. they kept them, refurbished the mechs, made them brand new clown-themed looks, and reprogrammed them)

true to my usual "Kokichi prefers to stay anonymous- on the brink of cryptid- online" hc, he never shows his face nor speaks in these, and his username is something that has nothing to do with the content at all

idk man- Kokichi being a very anomalous little urban explorer just sounds super on brand

Child Prodigy Figure Skater Bruce Wayne AU for my soul

He's *so* aggressive on the ice that it's like legit concerning that anyone let him wear knife shoes. If you've seen Yuri On Ice, he's Yurio but much much MUCH worse. Less trash talk, more staging you up so hard he doesn't *need* to trash talk you to ruin your confidence and make you flub. He's an all black fit kinda guy, as clean as possible, with very little flashy-ness despite the sport. He's hypercompenative as a coping mechanism, and if he doesn't win gold, he often sulks. He ages out of the sport at like 22, 23, and just moves on. Forgets about it. Becomes Batman and does not bother engaging in the fact that he was a world champion at one point.

The batfam finds out and are like "dude why the hell did you hide this??" and he's like "I didn't? Not talking about it doesn't mean I'm hiding it."

Alfred still has all his old costumes and metals and even recordings of Bruce's competitions <3 he cherishes them deeply because that was probably the last healthy outlet Bruce had before becoming Batman.

AU where Jazz is an only child and ends up becoming a halfa, but not from another portal incident. Not like Danny’s, at least. Where Jazz went straight to her parents, and now they’re doing their best to help her control her new powers. Where Jack playfully calls her ghost form “Jazz-O-Lantern”. Where Jazz tries to do little nice things when she can like a friendly ghost for the town. Where Jazz accidentally bumps into a kid she’s never seen before and finds it strange that her ghost sense goes off whenever he’s around.

Where the Everlasting Trio are from another town and ran away for Danny’s safety. Where the three of them figure out that Jazz is a halfa before she realizes that Danny’s also a halfa. Where Danny constantly runs from Jack and Maddie because they’re ghost hunters, where Danny tries to better help and teach Jazz. WHERE THERE’S QUEERPLATONIC EVERLASTING TRIO (one of my favorite parts, that’s why I’m yelling it).

I am a fan of both: Jason and Tim meeting as children and being really sweet but ending in tragedy because of his death. To then meeting up again and they're both unhinged freaks obessed with each other, but Tim's better at hiding it. The what if. The duality of they could have been stabile and sweet and worked out. But do to the horrors they two rabid birds clinging to each other.

See same. But I think they were never going to be normal about each other. Both love in a way that can be seen as too much, Tim regardless of anything, would systematically tear down anything that opposed him or his love and lay it at his lovers feet like a prize.

Jason always has a need to hold close hold tight or it will leave. It goes against his nature to let go.

The major difference would be they wouldn't need to feel violent towards each other. But their new love language would be just as strange, probably even moreso to like.. normal company. Cuz as Red Hood and Red Robin fighting is a part of life them being violent would be almost expected to a degree. But as civilians, or just Tim never becoming a cape? Gods it'd be weird. Like it'd be.. healthy? Probably? But it'd be strange. In a fun way.

Baker!Eddie who owns a little shop that only opens in the later hours.

He's not up at 6am baking, no, he's never been able to wake up that early, no point in ever even trying, SO, he caters to exhausted people who get off work too late to make dinner for themselves, caters to the drunk crowd from the bar across the street who really really really just want silly themed cupcakes at 2am, he caters to stoners with hella munchies who crawl out of the woodwork for brownies, blondies, eclaires, or his tasty bread rolls after dark.

And of course, Eddie's favourite, he caters to the occasional visit from the paramedic with the sweet tooth and all the moles who always works late shifts, who really appreciates the sweet treats, the dim lighting of the shop, and the cute dimpled smile of his favourite baker.

"Teaching them how to hold a weapon properly by standing behind them and guiding their hands, when you notice that their face has turned red" AU

[superineffable]

enemies to lovers au where the hero and the villain always seem to have a bit too much chemistry to the point that the fights seem to just be an excuse to see each other more often. they flirt while in battle. they go through very typical enemies to lover trope plot points where the villain stops other villains from hurting the hero, where the hero defends the villain against other heroes. eventually, villain becomes less evil and destructive because its not fun when the hero actually gets hurt. eventually, the hero puts down their suit because they want to rest and stop worrying their partner. eventually, they just become the story of a retired hero and a reformed villain. a superhero/supervillain enemies to lovers au with a happy ending.

then the au continues when, decades later, suddenly, one day, the villain is back being evil, causing destruction. doesn't seem to be actually causing harm to civilians, but reports are flooding in that it seems to be getting real close to hurting people.

the new band of heroes respond to the threat very quickly, but they're all quite determined to get close to the villain to actually talk to them. it was hard, so very difficult to pass through the number of challenges the villain has surrounded themself with, but one of the members of the team gets close enough.

"stop this!" the young hero begs

the villain turns with eyes red and tired. "you're not my hero"

"i'm not." the young hero was mentored by the old one though. years ago. so this young hero knew this reformed villain that wasnt acting quite reformed.

"i will stop when they get here." the villain answers. "they always stopped me, you know."

but the old hero won't come back. they're gone, passed away. not killed, because retribution would have been quick. blame is easier to place on its rightful owner. but one way or another, the old hero has died. in fact, the young heroes just came from the funeral that the villain failed to attend.

this would be the denial in the stages of grief. where the villain deludes themself into thinking the hero would just come back. a stage of desperation where they remember how they first met and try to recreate it so it happens again and they come back.

but they won't. because they're gone.

AUtober Day 8!— Fairytale

A royal au in which Tanjirou is the heir to the throne of the Sun Kingdom and Kanao is his guard (and there’s definitely nothing going on in between them *winks*). And they still need to defeat Muzan.

Basically the Sun Kingdom was formed to defeat Muzan and protect its inhabitants from demons, so Tanjirou uses sun breathing in this au. The Demon Slayer Corps is still around, Giyuu is goated, and there’s unrest in the neighboring kingdom, the Moon Kingdom!

Fun Fact about this au is that it’s actually complete (and somewhat canon compliant ) so I’ll definitely post more about it! It’s one of my favorite aus and there’s a lot of good stuff in it!
