Camp Cretaceous/Chaos Theory Arcane AU Part 1

I’ve been mulling over this AU for a while now and I’ll put the info in read more so it doesn’t take over my home page, but I would like to thank @mangosaurus and @theobscuredigit for helping me sort out my thoughts and bounce off ideas regarding the AU! Also this mostly covers act 1 of Arcane so I’ll probably do another part of this covering acts 2 and 3.

I’ve been working through what characters would fit which roles in the arcane universe and I’ve finally come to a somewhat solid conclusion on where I’m taking this AU if I decide to do more about it in the future (or it’s just this one off thing, maybe I’ll write a fic about it. I’m unsure), so here we go!

Yaz -> Vi- A head strong and athletic young girl who lost her mom due to a tragic conflict between the Undercity and Piltover. She’s the leader of a rag tag group of fellow orphans, those of which greatly admire her. While she may put on an act of having everything together she’s extremely terrified of letting those she loves down, especially her adoptive younger brother Ben who is the most important person in her life.

Ben -> Powder- Yaz found Ben all alone during the conflict that took the lives of the twos parents, and from that day forward Yaz became Ben’s protector and sister. Although, timid, Ben is determined to prove he can pull his own weight within the group. However, his attempts often fail leading disastrous consequences, which Yaz and the others have to end up resolving. The only person that Ben believes doesn’t see him as a burden is his best friend, Darius.

Mae -> Vander- Adoptive mother of both Ben and Yaz, she found the two during the conflict between Piltover and the Undercity. She also takes care of two other children she found during the aftermath and is well respected in the Undercity, due to her not so savory past. She now tries to keep the peace between the two nations, while also struggling to manage the rebellious children under her care.

Kenji -> Mylo- One of the other two children under Mae’s care. Unlike everyone else in the group who are orphans, Kenji was abandoned by his father after his mother passed away, using the chaos of the conflict going on in the Undercity as a way to make a clean break. Kenji greatly admires Yaz, and hopes to be someone that can proudly stand by her side, however his cockiness and laziness get the better of him. While he does care for Ben, he ends up giving the kid a hard time due to how often he messes up jobs. He believes that Ben somehow hexes the group whenever he joins them on outings.

Sammy -> Claggor- One of the other two children under Mae’s care as well as Yaz’s girlfriend. During the conflict, Sammy was separated from her parents and later found out they were killed during it. With no where else to go, she finds Mae and gets taken in by her. While trying to keep things positive in the group, it’s clear that she share the same hatred for those in Piltover as her friends, citing them as the reason why she lost everything.

Darius -> Ekko- Best friend of Ben as well as the son of the local pawn shop owner, he supplies tips he hears from his dad’s shop about wealthy customers to his friends. He highly respects Ben and motivates him to keep trying even when he wants to give up, being a guiding light in Ben’s life.

Brooklynn -> Caitlyn- The daughter of one of Piltover’s councilman. Her biggest dream is to investigate the inside details of Piltover and the Undercity’s rocky relationship and hope to achieve this by becoming one of the cities top enforcers in the future. She also assists Henry Wu in his work from time to time as he was taken under her families wing.

Here are the other roles that I don’t feel like writing descriptions for as of this moment but probably will if I go more into depth with this AU

Dr. Wu -> Jayce

Eddie -> Viktor

Daniel -> Mel

Tiff-> Silco

Mitch -> Sevika

Bumpy -> idk she can be heimerdinger or something

If I had better art skills I would draw designs for everyone, but alas I only use my drawing ability for shitty memes.

Honestly, your criticism of Barghest feels rooted in gender-essentialism. Muscles=masculine. Muscles can be feminine too.

That...was literally the point I was making. My point was that FGO's constant gender-essentialism means it feels a need to apologize for making a remotely buff female character by constantly emphasizing her femininity (she wants a lover, she like cooking, she's constantly drawn in aprons and blushing timidly, everything about her second ascension exists and her third ascension is more focused on making her sexy than making her intimidating, etc) and explicitly doing so in a way that portrays her muscles as something monstrous to be ashamed of.

This is most of the official in game art for the "first real buff woman" in fgo. I think it's self demonstrating.

And while you can argue that, yes, just because a woman has muscles doesn't mean she can't have feminine interests and/or aesthetics, it IS an issue when the piece of media the character is from ONLY has those kinds of female characters to begin with. You can't have "a bit of column A and a bit of column B" if you never even set up column B in the first place.

Karito paced proudly into where the rest of the Troupe was meeting. He grinned ear to ear. He had his own clothes, a simple tunic of white linen and dark purple shorts of the same material. [poorly-drawn-akira]

Darius takes a moment to stop the conversation that he and each of the troupe members were having the moment he senses Karito. "Ah, how's you're more versatile attire?"

I was gonna 100% let it slide if on book 5 Tory and Darius actually ended up together after being Starcrossed if they slowly went back and worked it out and stuff. Because I really liked the breaking of the norm with refusing a soulmates, and it would've been much more genuine than them getting together because the stars said so. There is a lot of potential there.

But nooo, Everyone and their mother on this fucking book needed to force the thought onto Tory about them being perfect for each other and give Darius another chance, every one with a worse opinion on it than the last, and that while totally dismissing her traumas. (Gabriel talking about it made me so fucking mad)

Like, yes, she is clearly mizerable about it, but, they're all making like Darius is the victim?? And the ONLY victim?? Oh, Think about how he's feeling. That he's not that bad. He's not his father. You should've given him the chance to change, look at him now. Nah bitch, that's consequences of you actions, your actions have consequences even if you're being manipulated. Her reasoning of being scared if he would've hurt her even in love is super valid but all the character go past her saying this. Even her friends, God, pls stop putting Darius first.

I'm just mad. There was a great foundation there and all they needed to do was to let the characters go on their own pace, but they slammed it into the ground so early on the book. You could still have the plot B of the others trying to get them together, you didn't need to have them directly be "Yk, Darius could've been great, why were you such a bitch and didn't took it?" on Every. Single. Tory. Chapter.

“you two are… well, fuck the law for saying you can’t be together”

“fuck the stars too, darius. fuck every shining, gleaming one of them.”

i’m firmly convinced cursed fates will change the trajectory of my life when it comes to the relationship that seem to be developing between certain characters in it. tory and orion as the sappy comrades with friendship bracelets, darcy and seth and their inexplicable but unbreakable connection, darcy and darius with the big brother/little sister vibes, the twins and the heirs genuinely finally coming together, the twins and gabriel… IT’S A FEAST.
