Reboot/ Cocoa notices two things while working with Scott(y):

1. He looks a lot like Cyclops from the show, especially with his glasses.

2. Despite his resemblance, his favorite character is Jean!

So they ask him if he wants to go to a cosplay conventional with them and buys him a little Jean action figure as a joke.

He isn't sure which is more embarrassing: having to explain why he needs to take his suit to Reader's world or having to explain the little action figure on his nightstand now.

Reader also gets him some X-Men bracelets, and he proudly wears them all-

Then he asks about a specific character, and Reader isn't sure who he's talking about...

Cue Scott(y) trying not to panic or cry, because his friend/little sibling is supposed to at least know who they are! And they don't?! Cr*p, he needs to tell the others!

Scott(y) is able to get Reader a small stuffed character plush, and he is very happy when they smile at it, thanking him-

(He so tells everyone about it, and is now telling them they need to start mentioning Reader, and their hero/villain/alias, and try to introduce that part of themself back to them... The others note Reader is now sleeping with a plushie of one of them, and are all watching as Reader falls asleep clutching it like it might disappear or be taken from them...)

Demi-god! Reader being given a magic bow with arrows of different types of love. Love between friends, siblings, parents, and kids.

Reader looks at the romantic and ***ual arrows and just....throws those arrows in the campfire and roasts marshmallows over them in front of everyone.

The bow and the rest of arrows are normally just hanging in their room. They like their frisbee better.

Yee!

Reader, though, has kept hidden their true nature and what they are the representation/demigod/reincarnated deity of... (and they cherish their frisbee/discus of protection and death...)

Each demigod, eventually, will see a symbol, one that can show them what their power and what demigod they are... When Reader first say their's, at the disgruntled age of twelve or thirteen, they threw up that night, waving off the others and joking they must have eaten an undercooked piece of meat or some bad vegetables... because... how could they ever, ever tell anyone they were some demigod or old god of Love, a being feared because no mortal or immortal could resist it, none could fight it, and now... would Reader be hurt for it? Or would their friends, the other demigods, suffer for it?

No. Nonono! Reader will become strong, assertive, charming, cunning. They won't act like a demigod of Love; they'll act like a warrior. No one can hurt them if they're prepared. No one can hurt their friends if they're strong enough. And none of them will ever, ever have to be forgotten by the gods or left to die on their own, not if Reader can help it...

(Some of the early campers/demigods, alongside Reader, were Lance, Gambit, Pietro and Wanda... later campers would be Scott and Jean... then Todd... then Rogue... then Fred... then Kurt, followed by Kitty and Evan... and even others...)

(There are nine remaining/not-disappeared gods of the Krakoan or Genoshan Pantheon: Xavier/Cerebro, one king of the gods and god of the mind, sleep, hypnosis, control, and marriage; there's Magneto, other king of the gods, god of metals, workmanship/craftsmanship, oaths, and leaders; there's Storm, goddess of the weather, storms, sun, rain, snow, wind, and the seasons; there's Wolverine, god of warriors, the woods, Autumn, animals, and comradery, as well as alcohol; there's Beast, god of knowledge, science, healing, medicine, and scholars; there's Morph, deity of change, mischief, LGBTQA+, wits/cunning, trickery, and messenger of the gods; there's Mystique, goddess of secrets, truth, lies, deception, and vengeance; there's Sabretooth, god of warriors, battle, the hunt, nature, cats, madness, and loyalty; and then there's Destiny, goddess of fate, visions, prophecies, destiny, and advice...) (and then the "father" of gods and demigods... Apocalypse, god/titan of time, space, and power... sealed away and forced into eternal slumber...)

Hey guys... So, I have news. My grandpa is still alive. He was in the E.R. on Halloween, and my parent and I were able to see him. On Friday, we brought him some blankets and a cardinal squishmallow to use as a pillow, and kept him company for a few hours that morning, then visited again and spent a few hours with him in the evening.

Good news: The nurses, doctors, and staff have been taking very good care of him, amd they're taking tests and finding out what's going on, so we can all help my grandpa to the best of our abilities. Bad news: Yes, he is dying, and probably doesn't have another year left.

When he gets to come home us when the hospital says he's healthy enough and once they've done all the tests and figured out what's going on. They've all been so kind, to him and to us.

Thank you all, for your well wishes and not getting upset about Halloween. Y'all have been so kind, too. I... I have a small thing I want to do, and I'll try to discuss this with @thewickedweiner and @sugar-soda, but it comes down to: I've wanted to make an OC inspired by/based on my grandpa for a few months, and I have spent Halloween night and Friday finally making a story about it, to help me cope with everything. I'll try to explain it the best I can later, and the OC isn't my grandpa, but its based on him, and is therfore awesome and amazing and gets to be old buddies with Wolverine and Sabretooth, and the Reader of that story is adopted by Logan once their grandpa isn't able to care for them/is in the hospital and doesn't have much longer to live. (I'll explain more later. I know I'm coping in my own way. And I think I had two signs that it's okay that I do this au/story and the OC grandpa, which I'll fund a name for later. First, on Halloween, I finally got a Wolverine bag clip from a mystery thing, which I haven't been able to do for a few months; and two, his night nurse was named Logan. So, I could be projecting, or being superstitious, or reading into things too much, but, well... I can't help but wonder if it's okay to make the au to cope, and this is God or the universe's way of letting me know it is, and it will be okay...)

Thank you all again, so so so much, for your well wishes, and being so thoughtful and kind. I hope y'all had an amazing Halloween, and have been taking care of yourselves. I appreciate y'all, and hope y'all know y'all are so swell and wonderful. Thank you 💛🧡

Normal! Reader: You guys know you don't need to follow me around. I'm not that interesting.

Yan Teens: You're affiliated with us! You need protection and you don't have a mutation!

Normal! Reader: Oh don't worry. I can defend myself just fine.

Yan Teens: Oh yeah? How?

Normal! Reader: The same way everyone else without a mutation does.

*cocks pistol*

With a gun.

Reader: Yep! Turns out if you use this bad boy, most people will leave you alone! Or, if you want something a bit more accurate, you have... your trusty metal bat!

Yan Teens: Wh-? NO! No, bad Reader! You shouldn't use those!

Reader: Why? I can't always have you around! And these are efficient! See, watch! hits a ball which then beans a bully in the head in the distance

Yan Teens: Still NO! But good accuracy-

Yan Teens, thinking: How do we get those away from them oh cr*p what if they learn about our guardians getting involved wait what if they keep the gun nonoNonONO-!

Reader: Huh, you guys got quiet all of sudden... Um. I'm gonna just- go- runs off, trying not to scream

(They're all nervous about how to get out of or pursue this strange friendship. It doesn't help when the teens keep trying to either prove Reader has to be a mutant, or try to find ways to make them one... And it doesn't help when the adults get involved, either...)

[honey-minded-hivemind]

The reason I said Reader only truly dislikes Fred and Mystique out of the Brotherhood is because one of the few episodes I remember with clarity is the episode where Fred straight KIDNAPS JEAN, like with rope and everything. While the fight he has with Scott and Rogue after the fact was awesome, and I very much enjoyed it, that cemented him in a bad guy spot for me. As a kidnapping victim themselves, who saw the other victims die, and his general asshole-ishness afterward, Reader probably is ready to go full Micheal Myers on him.

For Mystique, I honestly can't remember her being in the show at all, but apparently she was there, and was a terrible mother to Kurt and Rogue. So Reader hates her because of that, because they love their friends and thinks Storm is the better mom.

Erik may also end up on Reader's hitlist when he shows up, depending on his behavior.

Those three are on Reader's sh*t list, and face many, many various hauntings from them... So does Lance, when Reader finds out he almost dropped a building on Kitty.

Reader is very, very protective of their friends! No one gets to drop Scott or Kurt off a cliff, or kidnap Jean or Rogue, or be mean to Kitty and Evan, and then get away with it! (It's why Pietro has a new hair color each week for a month after he and Evan got in a fight-).

Duncan... he has it the worst, because he's an overall jerky person who doesn't ever seem to learn a lesson. So he gets paint in his shoes, toothpaste in his drinks, creepy writing on the walls, and is haunted by a deer skull floating in the shadows.

Yep.

No one better be a jerk or too awful, or they get Reader to haunt them-

(Lance and the Brotherhood are trying to free the X-Men of what what think is the ghost of Reader and are trying to put Reader to rest, so they called in Magneto and the Acolytes. THAT is going to be an awkward mess-)

[honey-minded-hivemind]

Peter and Wanda "meet" "ghost" Reader in middle of a middle of the night snack raid in the kitchen and see Reader. Wanda is a trying to blink the sleep away, not sure if she is dreaming or if she has a new sleep paralysis demon. Peter, on the other hand, is wide awake when he realizes that Reader has laxatives in hand and is the one who has been putting them in his drinks (he's been blaming Todd) and is probably the one behind all the other crap in the house (actually only a third, another third is the house is old and just breaks sometimes and the Brotherhood teens cause the last bit on their own.)

Neither of them recognize Reader as the X-teen who went missing a few months ago. But Peter declares war on the stupid Ghost haunting the Brotherhood while Wanda's goth angsty self thinks having a ghost in house is awesome, especially one that ticks off her brother.

The X-teens start to suspect something is up when they not one, not two, but THREE brotherhood kids in the school library for hours. Kitty is happy Lance is taking his studies seriously for once and Scott is sure they're planning something.

(Lance is trying to figure out how to put a spirit to rest, Wanda is reading up on how to communicate with the dead, and Peter wants to know how to punch a ghost)

Lance is looking up books on exorcisms, different ghost types, ghost folklore, and how to put spirits back to rest, while Wanda is looking up different witch books and how to befriend ghosts and what appeases them, and Pietro is looking up how to attack ghosts. So it's a mess of guy who feels like Norman or Dipper from Paranorman and Gravity Falls, that witch guy from Scooby Doo plus a Hex Girl mixed with Wrdnesday Addams, and Ghostbuster guy mixed with Coraline.

They make the weirdest ghost study experts for the school.

When Kitty and Scott finally figure it out, that they're convinced they have a ghost haunting Bayville, those two take a few days to figure it out...

When they do, they're trying not to laugh or feel worried, because Reader, why did you haunt them, and wait, YOU were the one who put those frogs in Ms. Snobbkeys classroom?! Reader!

Reader is laughing about all of this, but means it all in good fun (mostly), so the teens aren't really mad...

Of course...

How do they explain to the Brotherhood Reader is, well, alive, but has kinda gained... creepy powers, due to their... long time away... Because they don't want to go through the footage again, or explain it, or even think about it!

While the teens figure out what to do, the Brotherhood is prepping salt circles and offerings, and Reader is sleeping in the medbay because they got a cold, again, and need to stop going out in rainy weather.

(This Reader is so spooky! Good idea, @sugar-soda!)

[honey-minded-hivemind]

It's horribly angsty for sentinal! Reader's friends too.

This is Reader. Not a clone that replaced them like what's happened with other members. It's Reader, who cried and laughed and comforted and worked with them. They are family.

But now they're shutting down. The kid is made of at least half or more of the enemy, but that doesn't mean they are! But Reader is too busy having an extensial crisis on top of everything to comforted.

So how do they put their sweet little robot back together?

They have a few options to put their sweet kid or friend back together... A few may be more... complicated... but it's nothing they can't handle! Anything, anything for Reader to come back and be themself, and not disappear or fade away...

They can always rebuild Reader. Simply replace old parts with new ones. Take away the damaged bits, fix what they can, ads in updated and safer materials, and add their mind back in. It might be the simplest one, but it still means if someone got their hands on Reader, they could destroy them, or even worse, destroy their mind or soul, the one piece they can't replace...

There's always cloning or growing a body from freely-given DNA. They'd take a donor, or their original creator's, and grow them a body in a hidden, sterilized lab. They can even age it to a certain point, so Reader is still their designated age. If they want a preferred look, they can try that too, they suppose. It would be a bit... harder, granted, but... it also means Reader wouldn't be confined to a metal, moldable body, and that they're a bit safer from others by being human/mutant...

Or... there's simply keeping them in-between. A cyborg of some type, who has human parts, such as skin and perhaps a stomach and perhaps eyes or hair or senses and a nervous system. Some robotic parts might need to keep their human parts alive and stable, such as something to help their heart or replace it, metal frame or bones, perhaps a tracking device or two... Simply add enough human parts to let Reader have senses and a pulse, and enough metal and robotic pieces to keep their body stable and alive. A bit more complicated, but it is an option nonetheless...

(What do you think, @sugar-soda and Cube Anon?) (I keep imagining Hank amd Charles and Erik bonking heads together over this, doing their best to figure out the best option and having entire folders and blueprints for each option and the follow-through plans for them, as well as designing each part needed to help Reader function, and so many notes on what parts should be worked on first, which parts last, how many bumps to expect in the road to Reader's recovery... Those three have everything planned out)

[honey-minded-hivemind]

For the Gemling and Gem Au or even adult Half-Gem! Reader, the hijinks of them trying to figure out how exactly to take care of a human makes me laugh. Gem! Storm trying to make food and catching the stove on fire, Gem! Xavier trying to entertain the toddler by playing space chess, Gem! Logan reading a parenting book while Gem! Sabretooth is trying to get Reader dressed (the outfit is ugly and they REFUSE to wear it). Comedy Gold, I say!

Even better if half Gem! Reader is half-diamond like Steven. Cause they want to be reverent and respectful and maybe a little scared but Reader needed to eat their veggies but would prefer to cupcakes but dessert is supposed to be after dinner and-MY DIAMOND NO!

(I love these Half-Gem Aus and I'm not even a fan of Steven Universe! Your writing is just that good)

Thank you! And honestly, I not even sure which adult would end up with half gem Reader! If they were a Dimaond, I'm thinking they would either be a Red Diamond, Orange Diamond, or Green Diamond!

Reader as a little toddler, happily playing with little dolls, and being watched over by their worried, terrified adult gem guardian. They have little to no clue about how raise a human, let alone one who is part Diamond! Especially if they're THEIR Diamond. They want what's best for them, and care for them, adore them, even, but they're just so... little. Breakable. Squishy. And they need constant care and food and water and cleaning.

The adult gem learns pretty fast what to do (and especially what not to do) when it comes to raising Reader. Their little star likes food, but they have to be forceful when it comes to eating certain ones, such as eating green veggies, fish, and soup, and not having too much sugar or acids. They learn humans bleed easily, and have to be easy with Reader when it comes to discipline or teaching self-defense, otherwise they could use too much force and break them. And bedtimes... Their little star needs sleep, lots at night, and a nap once or twice during the day.

Slowly, over the next few years, they realize Reader is growing up to be bigger, taller, different... And discover that humans live nowhere near as long as gems. This sends them into a panic attack, worried Reader will be gone too fast. Gems live for eons, millenia! Humans maybe live to be hundred! That's nothing to gems! Amd their kid is... they're part human. And if they don't figure out a way to keep them alive, or a way to make it so they can't die, then they could lose Reader to anything...

Reader grows up, loving their parental figure, and unaware of their gem type of much about gem culture, besides a few basic gem types and a bit about the Diamond Authority. It isn't until they're about fourteen or fifteen that they amd their parental figure find out a ship is heading towards Earth, in search of their parent... And their parent is scared, for once, that Reader can openly see...

Their parent can only hope no one hurts their diamond, or finds out this shocking secret...

[honey-minded-hivemind]

ooo I’m super excited to see that thing if you show it, I’m sure it’s gonna look sooo cool

Thank you! You and @sugar-soda are the only two who know here, and I think you two will like it once I'm finished!

[honey-minded-hivemind]

I just commented about being assigned an anon but had to comment this.

I know we have so many shapeshifters but I like the idea of almost a werewolf type (spooky for Halloween haha), that can switch between different forms and even mix them. maybe they look like a regular human and have a Gambit situation, with creature like eyes, showing that they are in fact a mutant.

I would say that this probably even enhances their second gender, which makes the panic so much more realer and important and severe to you. get our while you can fr, wishing reader the best of luck lol

Ooooo... that's a good idea! Okay, @sugar-soda and @thewickedweiner ,what do you think of 🦭 Anon's idea? A were-creature Reader, who always has odd eyes (black sclera, bright irises?)

What color should their eyes be? And what were-creature, if that's their power, do they turn into? (Or maybe they are a were-elemental, who can take a form of something like fire or galaxies or shadows?)

[honey-minded-hivemind]

Hi! I noticed you haven't posted in a while and just wanted to check up on ya. If ur busy with life, preparing something, something happened, or you're just taking a break, that's ok! All your followers would want you to take care of yourself. Just want to ask if you are alright?

I'm mostly okay! I caught up on sleep, had to find some inspiration, rewatched the first season of X-Men Evolution (amd started the second season), and then slept some more. (In my personal life, stuff has happened, but I'd rather not talk about it). But otherwise, I'm okay.

And... I'm kinda trying to decide on making a fic or not, and posting it on ao3... trying to figure out which idea to choose and stick with, but it's part of the rrirng process (and not getting burnout).

I hope you're doing well, sugar-soda. Stay safe and drink your water and sleep when you need to, okay? And eat a snack or breakfast/lunch/dinner. Those are important. Watch a comfort show, too, if you need a pick-me-up or something to make you smile. Thank you for checking up on me😊

[honey-minded-hivemind]

Lesser know fact about Cain in the actual bible: after he killed Able, God had to place a special mark on him to keep others from killing him, as he commited what is believed to be the first murder and without protection, he would have been killed. (Being a born and raised Baptist means you learn the lesser known Bible stories, so feel free to ask for info on that front.)

So to adjust for Cain and Able Au: after both Logan and Victor tried to kill Reader, they gained a mark of unknown origin. They don't know what it means until they come to Earth looking for Reader. The humans (who we may or may not recognize) immediately spit at them and banish them from their lands. Some who don't fear punishment may actually try to kill them, as they know what the brothers did and view it as the worst sin.

Ah... That adds a fun adjustment to this AU~! Thank you, @sugar-soda, for telling me this!

The two brothers, after trying to murder their own child/nibling, gain a mark, which at first puzzles them, making them wonder what strange powers have branded them...

Until, upon visiting Earth, humans see it, and an almost primal fear wells up in them. Some run, shrieking and screaming, moving entire cities or empires just to escape their presence. Others try to fight them, even kill them, but the moment a blow lands, something worse happens to their opponent. And it seems wherever they go, nature quakes and turns a cold shoulder to them...

The other angels and fallen angels and winners and sinners help them look up information on the marks, but there search bears little fruit... Up until they find one of their oldest scrolls, preserved by ancient magic and power, that reveals the different signs of the universe and what they mean... and in its confines, there is a section on the mark the brothers bear, one labeled...

"Murderer/Attempted Murderer"...

They find it strange, why would they be branded as such? They've only done their duties, their purpose, have they not? Why mark them as something like that? Until word comes in that Reader, the very being who had been innocent of all but being their father's child, was slain... and their soul is nowhere to be found...

Wait...

What...?

Reader was...

Dead...

They weren't in the rings of Heck or the cities of Heaven, nor anywhere on Earth. No spells yielded where they were, nor could the other angels or demons tell them anything as to where they could have gone. It's as though they... they...

Ceased to exist...

And for once, since their feud began, they feel a deep, overwhelming panic.

Dead. Dead?! They, they can't be! Just- completely gone?! No soul left, no traces of their life or afterlife, they're just gone?! What... what the blazing voids does this mean?

Does that mean.... does that mean Reader met a fate WORSE than death? Worse than THEY ever had to suffer? Or anyone else? Because... if they aren't anywhere known... then are they... gone forever?

Neither one can stand the thought. And for once in their lives... they start to feel remorse...

(Go @sugar-soda! I can't wait to expand this AU! And Reader isn't dead forever! Just, well, about to be reborn! So... there is THAT fun detail, and the fun legends behind the First Wrongly Accused... And the creepy fluff! Ahhh... The joys of writing platonic yanderes~!)

Do I have any requests to you that you haven't been answered yet? I think tumblr may have eaten one.

(This is by NO means a question to rush you or anything if you do. My wifi connection is just tenuous at best. Take all the time you need! Love ur writing!)

Aha! I found a request by you for the parents in Dark AU funding out Reader and the others were still alive and their reactions, and one for the Creed Reader Haunted Mansion AU! I better get to those! (Also, if you have any Wings of Fire cravings, go see @honey-minded-hivewing, my side-blog for Wings of Fire stuff!) I thank you for sending in your past requests!
