#ksdfslfks I NEED TO FIND THIS SO I CAN WRITE IT

[oatmeal-stans-the-trash-rat]

Thinkin' about 2018-era LAMP fanfics where the angst was pretty Virgil-centric and usually about Virgil being accepted into the famILY.

They have a specific vibe to them, and god are they nostalgic.

I remember trying to write one in, like, early 2019? Ish? and it never got past Chapter 2 before the fanfiction site decided to delete it.

Rest In Peace, LAMP fic, you are missed <3

~Some Notes on the LAMP fic~

it was called Until Time Stops (UTS for short)

Superhero/Supervillain AU with qpp Dukeceit & platonic Anxceitmus

Logan Patton & Roman were heroes

Remus Janus & Virgil were villains but Virgil didn't go out as much on missions

also it was a Soulmate AU that i made my own Soul Mark thingy for

it had Virgil being a total mother hen

and Patton had a superpower that doubled as a curse and made it so he was um. dying.

and Logan Patton & Roman were already in a relationship together

and Patton was intended to spend his birthday in a hospital after An Incident

also Virgil had SUCH a gay panic when meeting Roman for the first time (outside of the hospital)

there was some background lore about Remus & Roman being twins & how their Very Bad Father was secretly the Big Bad that unites these six later all along

he's also the reason Remus ran away at a youngish age. and Roman really misses his sibling

tho his oblivious ass doesn't realize he's been battling them for a WHILE. to be fair neither does Remus. they're both oblivious lskdskld

and Remus uses uhh. he/they? I think??

I think there's some aro Janus in there as well. also maybe Janus using they/them? idk

i swear one of them used neopronouns but I can't remember

and Virgil was instantly very protective over Patton first meeting him. to be fair, he first met Patton while he was very badly injured because of, um...An Incident

oh yeah, and a lot of the superpowers were created by me & some had hidden lore about 'em

I did so much fucking worldbuilding for this fic, the city had a name, there was a superpowers system explained with genetics & getting through non-biological means, etc.
