#GenLoss crossover

[cowprintsillies]

Why do I torture myself writing things for the weirdest fandom overlaps anyway do you like The Magnus Archives? Do you like Generation Loss?

Boy howdy if only someone wrote a crossover written like an episode transcrip-

Nice.

[subaerial-dweller]

This is the final one of the night, I've decided it. Part four. OK! Here are my thoughts about Generation Loss characters, more specifically:

PART FOUR: CHARLIE SLIMECICLE

Charlie's a really cool character to think about, because he pops up in every single episode as a different character. Most of my other rants tonight have been theories, but this is more of a headcanon about how I believe Charlie came to be in Genloss and Showfall Media, but I'll be backing it up with evidence and things so don't worry about it.

Let's get cracking!

So the common belief, from what I've seen on Tumblr, is that we all seem to think that GL!Charlie grew up in that cabin from Episode 1, because it all looks very childish. Especially the bedroom. We've got a kid bed, a photo of Slimecicle as a child, the ducky thing on the desk, a small chair, a tennis racket, the whole thing. Anyway, so if Slimecicle was raised like that, damn. He lived his whole life to be that part, the Slime Demon. That's rough, Showfall Media. Even for you. Raising a kid for that?

My thought is, and this is where the heavy headcannoning comes in, so there will be little to no evidence from this point forward.

Have you ever read The Maze Runner? Spoilers up ahead if you haven't, so... yeah. In the prequel book, The Fever Code, the main bad guys (the morality surrounding them is complicated), WICKED, houses all these kids in a top secret facility to try to figure out a cure to the almighty plague thingy. These kids are all immune, except for some (*sobs*), and they're all special. And they form their own little bonds and it's all nice and sweet except for the unimaginable horror zombies and child experimentation.

ANYWAY.

That's what I'm imagining for Genloss. All these kids are in one facility, and they're being raised to be performers. I think GL!Charlie's one of these kids who lives in the dorms. But early on, I believe he was seen as a talented actor, so he was taken to live in his own little room, the cabin, so he could form an attachment to it. That's his main role, I believe, although he circles around in Episode 2 and 3 because Showfall thinks it's funny to see him there, but he's always the Slime Demon in Episode 1. And they raised him just for that, so that's why he has so many personal effects in his cabin, like the photo and the sports equipment. He even has his own portrait.

Anyway, I'm imagining him to still interact with the other kids, at lunchtime and break and stuff, when they're not working. I'd like to think that's how he meets other Main Cast, like Ranboo and Sneeg, as well as others like Niki, Austin, Frank (when he was still alive), Ethan, and Vinesauce. So he knows them as he's going into the show, but once they put him under, he forgets them and has no moral qualms about what he's doing.

Continuing with the Maze-Runner-ish thing (this isn't an AU I swear), I think he might've been given away by his parents at some point. Because has the photo, it could very well be a headshot, like actors put on their CV, or it could be a school photo from when he was actually outside. I saw exactly One Video about the book It Was Just Another Day In America by Ryan David Ginsberg (I'm going to read it when I have it), and the idea of selling your kids because you have no other choice is painful and dystopian and exactly what I think would happen in this Generation Loss world. The outside world, the audience (not us), is failing and collapsing but everybody is buying buying buying and everything is getting very very expensive so some people, if they want their kid to live, if they want to live themselves, well, there's no other choice. Showfall Media conveniently swoops in with an offer and pressures them til they can't say no, and takes their kid for a hefty sum and hopes the parents won't recognise them when they end up dying on live TV.

Does this happen for GL!Ranboo? I don't know. I like this idea of him meeting GL!Charlie and the others in the Showfall dorms, but I also like the idea of them just going missing one day, picked up off the streets and flung into this whole mess. I don't know if that was confirmed by the pre-release short videos they put out, I can't tell anything from those other than a sense of "oh fuck", but yeah. For Charlie, I like this headcanon.

Maze Runner style.

If I were to substitute characters out (I'm doing this for fun now, it isn't relevant to the headcanon), I'd do it like this:

Charlie Slimecicle - Thomas. He's kept apart from them, but he still sees them. He's an outsider and he's particularly special.

Sneegsnag - Alby. He's the leader of them, he's dry and bored. He's not as serious as Alby, but he seems the most confident, so he's the leader.

Ranboo - Newt? I think so. He seems pretty timid when I think of him, but they're rather chill and definitely aren't a pushover when it comes to interacting with the other characters. I think Newt works because they also would be the one to help out Charlie (Thomas) when he first comes down.

Frank could be anyone, really. I have no idea of his character. Minho is a very core character, obviously, and Frank could definitely fit that. Happy, upbeat, childish, a strong bond with Sneeg which would carry on even after he stops talking (whether from psychological damage or actual death, I dunno).

That's it for the night, folks! I'll be posting more of these. If you're sick of me, I'm sorry, it's just my random thoughts at this point.

genloss x riptide au goes hard

charlie’s design by my friend TIDESTRlDER on twt!! follow bite for more content zoms making a sneeg design rn

[otherfloppiestcatto]

Genloss X QSMP???

Just like, an AU were the two are in the same universe, and showfall media is responsible for everyone being trapped on the island after a deal they made with quackity, the binary code monster is in the same vein as the wire monster

The eggs are a twisted social experiment where Showfall took failed stars and turned them into child-like beings

and Gegg is what happens to Charlie once he dies, but because of the whole thing with him being partly slime, he is able to turn back into a person

then maybe the reason more people from different countries are being sent over is because Showfall Media is contacting the Showfall Media's in other locations, to try and make the show more 'interesting' and the eggs that came with them are also failed stars from those showfall media locations

Maybe one of the eggs is ranboo????

[cheetahf]

I had a vision and it was traffic light trio as gl!rgb trio

Blood warning and character death (+gore?) under the cut (and genloss spoilers!!)

GERARD

-u’re sure this is worth it?

GERTRUDE

Aldelard Dekker certainly seems to think so.

GERARD

[muttered] I think you’re finally losing the battle against old age.

GERTRUDE

You want to stop the birth of The Extinction as much as I do, Gerard, and the location seems rather promising.

or: Life changing fieldtrip with Gertrude Robinson, next stop, an abandoned mall.

Thank you for coming to my sales pitch

"Not all ghosts look the same kiddo"

Hat Kid meets Ranboo (who the subconites have taken a liking too)

[boygirlctommy]

was explaining genloss to my mom and she stopped me halfway through bcus she thought ranboo was just a dream smp character and not a real guy

[wizardfrogsbutevil]

Hey so what if gl!Charlie and gl!ranboo escaped through the dimension door. Assuming it was real, (which is at least fairly likely as showfall has the ability to bring people back from the dead) it could have been the perfect way out.theyd be away from showfall and it was right next to them when they were at the cabin set
