character ask: lucy, poe, and fitzgerald

Oooh Guild characters, don't mind if I do

Lucy first!

First impression

Anne of Green Gables author! I understand this reference!

Impression now

Best girl, she's just trying to live her life post-Guild arc and exist as best she can. I'm so glad she continues to have a presence in the narrative, and I want to see more of her!

Favorite moment

Guild arc, Moby Dick, Atsushi's prison cell. She bears her scars to Atsushi to show exactly why she hates him (and considering all the other members of the Guild, she's probably used to people who don't understand her pain, who have more to their lives than she could ever dream of) only for Atsushi to reveal he has scars just like hers, that they share this pain that no one else does. And when Atsushi asks if the people on the ground deserve to suffer like she did. GOD.

But a close second is the moment where she drags Atsushi out of the cafe to give Kyouka some peace, explaining to Atsushi why he should give her that peace of mind. It's a cute moment, and I like that it shows Lucy has the deeper emotional understanding in this situation versus Atsushi.

Idea for a story

When I finish that one fic where she becomes a detective thanks to Poe moving to Canada it's over for all of you. And maybe a canon-compliant fic exploring her average every day life at the cafe, how she goes about and what she does with her time

Unpopular opinion

I do not see enough Lucy content to know what opinions of mine would be unpopular or not?

Favorite relationship

Atsulucy is my beloved for a reason... I love they. I would like to explore her dynamic with Kyouka more though, I think they're interesting.

Favorite headcanon

I don't have a specific headcanon, but thanks to some old OC named Lucy I do associate her with ladybugs a lot.

Now, Poe!

First impression

FUCK YEAH I LOVE THE CASK OF AMONTILLADO a shame that isn't his ability BUT HELL YEAH I KNOW POE THIS IS GREAT

Impression now

He's a silly goofy guy who's rivalry with Ranpo is really fun, and the continued use of his ability in present BSD storylines is really cool. As a fan of IRL Poe's writing style and stories, he's an absolute treat. Could use more Cask of Amontillado references though.

Favorite moment

His inroduction is iconic... but the moment where he casually reveals how incredibly wealthy he is and gets to be the one who shocks Ranpo instead of the other way around? Oh, oh that is wonderful.

Idea for a story

As I mentioned above with Lucy, the fic where he fucks off to Canada and accidentally brings her into the mystery business is one I treasure dearly, even if I don't know how to write it just yet. I also have an AU version of him that, while he doesn't have a story yet, is quite an intriguing premise.

Unpopular opinion

I don't have a specific one, but I do feel like the fandom tends to soften him a little bit, make him a little bit too shy and anxious.

Favorite relationship

Ranpoe is iconic, but to be fair it is like... the main one we see in canon. If we're talking about dynamics I'd like to explore with him, I think him getting dragged around by Kenji on a shopping trip or something could be fun (based on that one brief scene in the manga where Kenji tried to help him but couldn't understand him) or a scenario with him and Fukuzawa.

Favorite headcanon

He definitely has an ominous wine cellar in that giant mansion of his. You know why? Cause Cask of Amontillado is-

Now we move on to Fitzgerald himself... oh boy.

First impression

THE GREAT GATSBY???

Impression now

This entire character and the storylines surrounding him are such expertly weaved references to the Great Gatsby that while I don't like the character himself a lot, I do have a secondhand appreciation for him because I love that book.

Favorite moment

The moment he shows up in TJ Eckleburg's house and just casually explains how horrific of a death drinking lighter fluid is kinda funny to be honest?

Idea for a story

...Does that one time I had a Pokemon AU where he got eaten by Reshiram count?

Unpopular opinion

I don't see a lot of content about him so I can't say for sure what is and isn't unpopular?

Favorite relationship

Him with the Guild as an entity, not its individual members. Something really fucked up about how he calls them all his property and that's how he cares about them, not really having much care for their individual cares.

Favorite headcanon

The man is bad at fishing. He likes the idea of it vaguely in that 'white American dads fish' kinda way but he cannot actually fish he's bad at it. If you know you know.

Ok, so I’ve read a some fics in a couple of ur AUs (dumpster fire and selkie verse (mostly peter fics because I’m obsessed with him)) and I looked on ur tumblr and saw stuff for little spidey? What’s that? I also read a ficlet that I think was into the multiverse w/ little peter a daredevil who was going to be ordered to kill him? Could you explain that? I want to get into your other AUs, but they seem a bit confusing... Basically, can I get a brief overview of ur AUs (+ peter’s role in them)1/2

2/2 I really love the stuff I’ve already read from you and really want to read some of your other stuff!          

hello anon!

The reason the AUs are confusing is because you’re coming into them halfway through! The best way to know what’s going on with the AUs is to go to their series pages and read the first fic, honestly, but I can understand that that can be a little intimidating because Ao3 will not let me condense the tags for series (does anyone know how to do this??)

I’ve explained my big 4 verses here (links to these verses are located here)

These consist of In Technicolor, Inimitable Verse, The DFV, and Into the Multiverse.

But! since you have given me an excuse to plug these again and all the smaller/less popular verses in between those, I’m going to take it! (Spiderman appears in most of them because I adore Peter with my whole heart, but there are a couple Daredevil specific ones that I can’t help pointing out)

———————————–

In Technicolor

Single fic - Currently 21 chapters

Outsider POV, Vigilante Culture, Brett Mahoney-centric

Starts off as DD focused, but Spiderman ends up playing an equal, if not greater part.

Inimitable Verse

Series - 18 pieces (Read chaptered pieces in order. Others can be read however you want)

Aged-up Peter, A different kind of Homecoming, copy cat vigilantes step in where others have abandoned the city, Team Red expands, most chaptered works are plot heavy

Little Spidey (the one you’re asking about) is one of three copy-cat Spidermen who Peter encounters in this verse. Him, her, Louis (another copy cat) and Miles Morales eventually come together to form a four-man Spiderman team that goes around kicking ass and taking names.

The Dumpster Fires Verse

Series - Complete. 41 pieces (non-essential to read in order)

Slice of Life fics, Team dynamics, Team bonding, Peter, Matt, and Wade grow up and grow closer and we grow with them

Into the Multiverse

Series - 19 pieces (mostly important to read in order)

Blondie!Spidey lives, emotional hurt/comfort, real finding-yourself vibes.

Each branch of the multiverse tries to restabilize itself and build a team in the aftermath of ITSV.

The Lighter Fluid Verse

Series - 5 pieces (non-essential to read in order)

Continuation of the DFV except on my terms, no longer tied in with the overarching arch of the DFV. Just a bunch of side-fics

Electric Sheep

Series - Complete. 11 pieces (essential to read in order)

no Peter, sadly.

DD Android AU, plot-fic. Matt is an android built for fighting wars; he ends up as an IT bot at Columbia University where he meets Foggy who tries to help him recover his humanity.

Selkie Verse

Series - 7 pieces and counting (essential to read in order)

Fae and Fairies AU, based heavily off of the film The Song of the Sea and Irish folklore.

Peter is a witch-in-training in this AU and has given his heart (Howl and Calcifer style) to Johnny Storm, a fledgling fire demon. He’s off on a quest to help Selkie!Matt Murdock get his coat back.

Rain City Verse

Single fic - 2 chapters

Dark AU, Kingpin!Foggy Nelson, Matt acting as Peter’s Parental Figure, body horror, dubious everything, vast manipulation (This is where the little Peter you are referring to is from, he’s 12yo).

Kingpin Foggy catches Daredevil and spares his life, then uses that to manipulate the ever-loving shit out of him to get what he wants. Peter shows up in chapter 2 as a super-mutated spider-child who Matt is caring for in the wake of Aunt May’s death.

Lying By Omission Verse

2 Fics

my CHILD. (I love this verse dearly). Back-to-life AU, emotional hurt/comfort.

A scientist brings Ben Parker, Jonathan Murdock, Vanessa Carlysle, and Maria Castle back from the dead to use them to get information to help destroy Spiderman, Daredevil, Deadpool, and the Punisher.

Foggy deals with the legal fallout. Peter and Ben get reunited in this piece and they are so toothachingly sweet.

All Hallows Verse

2 Fics

Jack Murdock is DD verse.

tiny, baby shared verse between me and @gaykravitz.

Give ‘Em an Our Father Verse

Single Fic

another dark(er) fic. DP and DD-centric, plot-fic, kidnapping and bringin’ ‘em home.

A shittier than ever faction of the Hand kidnaps Matt to get him to work for them. Wade goes after him after Peter gets too hurt to help.

These are the main ones, anon. There are standalone fics about Peter scattered through my works page, too, but I’ve got a dissertation to write and not a whole lot of time for sorting right now.

I hope this gives you a good start! I would give you more details (characters that come up, tropes that have been established, etc) except that would take away from the fun of reading the series :)

FASTFORWARD TOO 2018-19!

I am now 20 years old.

The last 20 years of my life have been far from normal. I would just like that to be a blantantly put out there fact.

Now, how does the last two years of my life relate DIRECTLY. IN EVERYWAY SHAPE OR FORM TO MY CHILDHOOD NIGHTMARES?!

I will explain!

So basically, after years of hell, being sexually assaulted, abusive relationships, teenage pregnancy and a failed marriage you can say that the young 19 year old me was far from okay.

I ended up for, in the first time in my life, using hard drugs after I was sexually assaulted by a man and then I was physically assaulted by my ex because of said sexual assault. I am aware no excuse, I have been clean and sobering my life up for approximately a year and some now and am in college.

Besides the point of any of that, I ended up homeless in the town I went to highschool in. Well, while homeless I stumbled upon a man, we will call him J. J was an older man, red hair, shorter, athletic build and a drug dealer, to be honest, we quickly became freinds, he looked out for me as I made my way through the streets for quite awhile. Eventually one day we had crossed paths. He had invited me to meet a freind of his, he called her Bones. Bones was also an older woman, she was beautiful, with beautiful eyes. She gave me her number, I kept it with me. Just a singular number, not a phone number, but a singular number, I kept it with me, to this day I hold that number very dearly to my heart. When I first met her, she wrote very clearly on my arm, an acronym that stood for freedom. I gifted her a colourful eyeshadow among some other things and visited for awhile. The visit became strange, bones had prompted me towards believing that, for one, someone would be coming to her dorm room, for two that that person may want to hurt me and for three that she wanted me to protect myself. She then giggled off and I sat there contemplating what I was to do. (Still one of the strangest interactions of my life) but anyways, I had a bottle of lighter fluid and some other relatively flammable things, I laid all of the flammable things out and covered the floor going into her room in lighter fluid. I figured if someone were going to attack me they would get 3rd degree burns while doing so and I would easily sneak out the window. So anyways, bones comes back, no one comes to attack either of us, she just sort of stares at me dumbfounded and we continued visiting.

Something about her and the entire interaction from the words that were said to music played made me hold that memory in my mind for over a year now. Again, anyways, a man named Nick shortly comes into the building. He claims he is a firefighter. He seems friendly enough, me and him strike up a friendship and begin talking about taking a group of people by bus out of province. I get to know him and spend approximately 3 days with him, in which we became aquatinted. On the third day, he and I go back to Bones building where I go to visit with bones and Nick I believe showered and did some other tasks. Besides the point, shortly thereafter Nick asked me to be very quiet while he snuck me out the back door. At this point in time I was drugged I will not lie, I was intoxicated and without a doubt in my mind unable to make a sane decision. Nick decided to take it upon himself to walk me/ escort me down to the river where he then bound his hand to mine in what is considered a Wiccan marriage ceremony. Said ceremony lasted maybe 10 minutes: the strange thing was the normally busy town I lived in was dead that night, not a soul in sight. I remember him asking me what I would do with a lottery ticket shortly after that to which I replied open up a recovery treatment centre where I could recover and help others to recover in the future from addiction. He handed me a strange bible with instructions in it. And disappeared. I now had a husband named Nick, out and about, I had no idea who this guy was, I hadn’t seen him in days and shortly after that my life became a HELL HOLE. I was walking down the street when I approached a man who said he would drownd my daughter. Now, although I was a homeless drug addict, I obviously still love and loved at that time the child I had conceived years before that while I was a teenager. (Yes we are reunited) besides that point, the man begins to attack me and claim that he would drowned and pimp out my daughter, who at the time was still in my custody technically. I became enraged and caused a large scene. I did not know that the man who I called on was actually a “very important” “gang” or something along those lines memeber and within MOMENTS, of me becoming angry and lashing back out agasint what was said about my daughter I was being harassed, followed and video tapes by cars passing me by, and not a normal amount of cars it was as if that man had man one phone call and everyone in the vacinity poured into my hometown and began staring at me, like not only staring at me, they followed me, videotaped me, made me feel uncomfortable constantly. This was an on going process for about 6 months or more. Shortly after that I was robbed. Repeatedly. Left with nothing but a sun dress on my body, not even shoes on my feet. I was then pimped out against my will. When I began to speak up about my experience I was laughed at. Legitimately laughed at, I was spit at, I was attacked mentally, emotionally, physically and more. I was drownding, when I told the people I loved the most (my parents ect) what was going on they made jokes and blamed me. I was drownding, they were laughing, the woman bones reminded me of the Skelton. The man Nick shares a name with nichole. I was then pimped out against my will and experienced very closely to what it would feel like to be stuck in the machine, more and more kept piling up until finally, all of the child hood dreams no longer felt like dreams but profecies. During this time I met a man named shadow, shadow, Niko (shadows driver) and I all became semi close before I was green lighted by shadow. Well, shadow also gave me his number. A number that matched bones and with nikos “number” all put together created the last couple digits of my sun number. So many not coincidents began to stumble together. Well, not long after the meeting of shadow was I waking up to fog drawings on my windows and shadows dancing on my walls.

The song knock me down comes to mind by Halsey when the experience is repeated, as I have no seen Nick since and have been trying to untie my hand since. Not only that, Nick also claimed to be a part of the army, since then I have learned knock code or really constantly had my neighbours ect knocking at me so I learnt knock code and shortly after that felt as though I had been arrested CONSTANTLY.

Basically on top of all of that there was also a run in with a man named “shady” who I played the song by immortal technique... dance with the devil. In which I warned him that every thing I was predicting would come true and that song would come to life from that moment forward. A year later and everything that I predicted happened, my childhood nightmares were some how prophecies and when I mean EVERYTHING I mean to the point where I told shady that the world was going to end and to listen to that song and take what I said into consideration.

Now we are here and I wish this were the least crazy part. :)
