Yknow, technically I could fit this idea into the sci fantasy au, but I think it'd be funnier if I didn't and just made it it's own thing. It's one thing for your friend to secretly be a weird bird thing when you live in a world where everyone involved more or less knows of the existence of magic in some form, with some of them even being able to directly wield it, but it's another thing for that to happen in a world where magic super isn't a commonly known thing. Idk I just think it could be fun to have a more simple small scale au for once

#rat rambles #band posting #just a nice simple lil au where I dont have to account for literally every character... that clould be nice #if not hard for me because I KNOW I will be tempted to make more people a similar flavor of thing as ran #at the very least I will swear to myself to not make more that one for each band I wont do it #ok so I think Im awake enough to explain the plot of the dream so I will attempt to without it sounding weird #so I believe the backstory was that when ran was like 12 they accidentally got to figure out magic is very much real the hard way #long story short woo hiking feild trip oops crowd too loud time to scedaddle from group oops stumbled into wizard trap oops is bird #keep being bird for like a day while search parties fail to find you wizard finally notices and is like ah oops my cursed trap hit a Child #provide child with some magic that will allow them to be able to return to human form but erase the memory of how they got cursed #except uh oh the magic isnt always super effective and it takes a lot of actual effort on rans part to stay in a fully human form #and when they dont theyll either shift to a much more bird like form or just back to the straight up bird form #which was a finch btw the dream specifically specified finch for some reason #since they dont have any clue when or why this whole bird thing started happening and since that shit is weird and hard to try to explain #they ended up just trying to take the hard route and keep it a secret and just. not tell anyone #and that was the majority of the dream that I can remember clearly because I know in dream I was thinking like 'oh damn cool concept'#and also I wrote it down right as I woke up (albiet sloppily) as opposed to the rest pf the dream which I didnt dmdbdksb #but yeah basically just a very small au abt ran being birb and the rest of afterglow being like woa #and like trying to help them be able to live more comfortably with the curse than they currently are (since theyre yknow spending most of #their energy hiding it) and like I think a big thing in the dream was figuring out how and if ran should tell their dad #since like on the one hand hes possible the person in rans life who could do the most to help make their life easier in this department #but he could also very much do the opposite or just generally make a bigger deal out of it than ran would like #tbh the dream was kinda vague on how big a deal was too big a deal for ran but I think the primary worry was it being like. publicised #which I dont think is something ran's dad would do so thats good #I dont actually remember if that plot like got resolved though so guess I get to decide how that works out now #but yeah this dream very much stood out amongst the crowd of dreams I am very intrigued by its set up
