#new fahc origins

[heisttheblackflag]

kingpin gavin

he starts from almost nothing. brought over from england for a job and the promise of more, only to be mistreated and abandoned and worse. when he fights his way out it’s through layers of bodies and self-hatred and he doesn’t know if he comes out the other side better or worse but he comes out the other side.

this happens again. different gangs, different kinds of bullies, but again and again he’s shit on and overlooked; used and abused and forgotten about. but he’s smart. he watches, and he waits, and he listens and he learns, and time and time again he fights his way out of the pits he’s been thrown into.

finally the day comes when he realises he can do it on his own. he has the talent, the knowledge, the connections if he can capitalize on them. so many gang leaders have chewed him up and spit him out he can craft lies and sell secrets easier than breathing, easier than trying to stand on your own when your legs have been kicked out from under you more times than you can count.

from here he rises. his power grows until “golden” isn’t a color any more, it’s fear and firewalls and knowing you only have limited time until the golden man with the silver tongue is standing in front of you, one hand offering you the world while the other hand waits to stab you in the back. he rises and conquers and then, glorious, he is the one who controls the city, controls his whole world. then and only then does he find himself.

I've been doing some thinking about classic FAHC and I've been binging Leverage and I just wanted to sort of share my redefined ideas about the roles people have on the crew. It's much more blended than the original fahc where everyone had distinct roles. In the "new" FAHC: Geoff has sort of taken a back seat. He's around and still 100% has his fingers in the pie but Trevor is now the Mastermind of the organization. It's him who really plans the heists and really sits down to work them out. Trevor is also partially a frontman and mainly (in my head), their Thief. I see him in a pair of leather gloves to cover his (metaphorically) sticky fingers, smoothly talking to someone or stealing a keycard from their pockets. He's just as comfortable in the vents as he is directing the crew. Ky is also a huge protege with Trevor, working hard in the background to learn the job of the mastermind and producing a heist from start to finish.

Jack is still in the crew, of course, but has sort of taken a bit of a step back with Geoff. She's there to drive the getaway car but has left the more dangerous pieces with the younger crew, although she's still on hand to patch them up when they get themselves into Situations. She's the Getaway Driver and the Medic.

Michael is sort of the Head Dog in the Hitter pack, which encompasses Joe and Alfredo as well. Michael's a hands-on Brawler, down to fight, but also enjoys teaching the other two. Joe is also a Brawler, just gets in there, but Alfredo is sort adjacent as their Sniper. He's better from a distance, a sharp-shooter, although with Michael's influence he can get a bit fighty up front (where Trevor has to drag him back to the plan). What surprises them is how much Ky gets involved in the physical parts of the crew and how she ain't afraid to throw a punch. Of course, when needed, they can always count on Lil J to throw up and wreck shop when he's in town.

Gavin is their frontman and is their Grifter. He's the one that runs the longer cons, the one who can wear a million hats and pivot on a dime to charm even the most reluctant of Marks. He's left the hacking mainly to Matt, who acts as the main crew Hacker. He not only manages the basic hacking but is good with gadgets. BK also focuses mainly on being a secondary Grifter, providing the feminine energy to Gavin. The two can make a very deadly pair when set on crews together. BK is also a pretty powerful sharpshooter when she needs to be.

The thing about Lindsay is that they are truly still, as always, the Wildcard. Lindsay will brawl when they need to, they will grift and be incredible at it, putting on any voice and nailing it. They are very good at planning heists (especially when they need the element of surprise) and really can fit in any role. Ace of Spades, they are.

Thoughts?

Fuck

the D2 Salt Raid in the context of the Fake AH Crew is fucking hysterical. here you are minding your own business trying to cash a check when the Fakes burst in in full heist mode. but instead of the usual bullshit, the New Guy starts screaming at the fucking Vagabond about WHO’S BEEN TELLING YOU HOW TO HOW TO WANK YOUR GODDAMN DICK, V!? IT’S BEEN ME!

conclusion: nobody except for new people and the LSPD are afraid of the Fakes because honestly they’re better entertainment than anything that comes out of Vinewood

[somegrumpynerd]

New fahc stream team origin story: they met when they all (separately) broke into the same guy’s house to rob him and ended up hiding in the same closet waiting for him to go to bed. It went from “Who are you what the hell are you doing in here??” to “oh you’re here to- no way me too!”

[gvnchvcks]

what are your hcs for everyone's role in the crew? e.g. fredo is sniper, michael is demolitions etc.

Oooh!! My girlfriend and I were just talking about this actually! Here are the roles we think fit the best, though they aren't exactly very original:

- I totally agree with you on Michael and Fredo. Michael is exactly the guy you go to if you need pretty much anything to do with things that catch on fire or go boom, and I like to think he helps out when the group needs some good ol fashioned muscle

- Alfredo is absolutely 100% the sniper. Really he's perfect for any stealthy job whenever he gets serious, but he prefers to provide cover from a distance before rushing in later on to help his mates

- Trevor is all about heist planning and he helps on the financial/monetary end of things. Of course these are heavy and important tasks, so Gav, Jack, and Matt help him out whenever they can. I also really like the idea of him being one of the crew's medics

- Okay I will say one thing: Gavin is still the Golden Boy. Idc if its outdated or out of character, golden boy!gav is still my absolute favorite. So a bit of hacking and heist planning. I also like to think he's perfect as a distraction, interrogator, and overall team morale booster. Tbh he's pretty well rounded as long as he's not the one driving

- I've always loved pilot/driver!Jack, she's perfect for the job. Can get you from point A to point B to point C with class and expertise

- Matt is the crew's leading hacker. Sure Gav does some too, but I'd almost say he works under Matt. I like to think he also helps Treyco and Jack deliver orders through the crew's earpieces, but of course usually from further away like from inside a van parked a few blocks back (definitely also knows how to use a sniper, he just leaves it to Alfredo unless the job calls for it)

- Lindsay is the wildcard. Not exactly an "expert" at any specific thing, but great at anything that causes chaos and confusion. Explosions, random tear gas containers, they have it all. Just like Gavin though, I wouldn't let them drive-

- Jeremy is the muscle. Brute force is their game, and Rimmy is their name. I also like to think they're a driver/pilot of sorts, but they specialize in special vehicles that are more so used to cause destruction or to be a distraction

- Fiona, being the newbie, hasn't quite found her niche yet. But, she does have one thing: Rage. Get her fired up and watch her go. Bullets will fly and heads will roll. She's the perfect decoy; enemies expect to go against the Rookie but instead they get blown away by the Supernova.

- Bonus: Geoff works from the shadows now. He's still the head of the crew, but he's no longer the face of it. Orders go directly from him to Trevor. From the Kingpin to the New Boss.

My ask box is still open for fahc/minecraft AU asks!!

AH/FAHC Teams

I was really getting into writing for the FAHC universe, then my hearts was torn out. I won’t say his name, but I will say that until this year he was my favourite AH member. What he did disgusts me, and I am so incredibly proud of those who have spoken out about their experiences. You are far stronger than I could ever hope to be.

I feel lucky that the one story I did post didn’t heavily involve him. I am tempted to delete the Sweet Sauce story, rewrite it to no longer include him at all, and repost it. In fact, I’ll likely do that soon.

However, I’ve been rewatching some of my favourite older videos that don’t have him in it. This is how I found Sweet Sauce in the first place. And while I cannot watch the video with the origin of Sweet Sauce, I will maintain that lesser-known teams like this are great. Another such team I have found that I love is a three-person team.

Rampage, Hit-And-Run and Genocide, The Waffle Brothers.

In my mind, this is a tactic that the Fakes use to throw the police off the scent. if the crew needs to pull off some job, but are desperate to not have their names attached to it, then the Waffle Brothers resurface in Los Santos. A mysterious crew who got their name when they pulled off a heist in an old waffle vendor van, these three hooligans tend to hit smaller jobs than the Fakes. Unlike the infamous gang, the LSPD have no leads on the identities of Rampage, Hit-and-Run or Genocide. They know these code names from a Waffle-themed tag that was left at one of the scenes.

What the police certainly don’t know is that the three Brothers that make bank in the waffle van are Axial, the Golden Boy and Rimmy Tim. The only connection is that Rimmy and Genocide have similar styles. They are both chaotic and messy in their approach to their work, leaving a maelstrom in their wake. Golden Boy and Hit-And-Run are somewhat similar in their mannerisms and work ethic while on a job, but when he’s a Waffle Bro, Hit-And-Run tends to play more into the chaotic than even Golden Boy normally would (unless he’s on a job with Supernova). But it was the calm and sarcastic Axial that no one would ever pick as Rampage. When he dons the yellow Waffle Brothers mask (which is hideous, absolutely on purpose), he becomes just as chaotic as Rimmy, if not more in some cases. For Axial, he gets to let loose with his friends, which is more than enough for him to fully embrace the maniac inside.

The jobs that the Waffle Brothers are pulled out for are ones that generally involve a lot of destruction and mayhem, and Mogar either isn’t available or isn’t willing to do it. So, the three Waffle-themed villains will ride around town, a loud melody blaring through the van’s speakers as they cause severe damage to a lot of public property as a cover for when they actually steal from their target. This creates an MO entirely different from the Fakes, which are usually more planned escapades.

The best part about the Waffle Brothers, at least to the three members, was when they were doing it for the first time. And somehow, all of them showed up to the garage to get in one of Rimmy’s vehicles with something themed around waffles. Golden Boy was wearing a t-shirt an old friend had made with a waffle on it, Axial was eating one that he’d pulled out of the freezer and let thaw a little bit, and added some peanut butter and jelly to, and Rimmy Tim had been given a new waffle-themed face mask as a joke that he wanted to wear to make Axial laugh. All three found it hilarious that they somehow coordinated the waffles, and when Golden Boy suggested that they steal and use a waffle vendor van for the heist, the others loved it and thus, the Brothers were born.

However, the three say that don’t remember where the names Rampage, Hit-And-Run and Genocide came from.

I got this idea from the end of the It Made Me Draw Farts! Drawful video. The Waffle Brothers/Waffle Morons/Waffle People is one of my legit favourite moments in any Jackbox game they’ve played. Since this was my first time watching it since I had read up on, and began writing for, the FAHC, I really wanted the Waffle Brothers to be a thing. So, I came up with this super quick.

Hope people like this, or find something they want to use in it. I would have written a proper story about this, but I’ve been busy with writing an original story, and also I’ve been burned out on the FAHC stuff a little. Next FAHC post should, hopefully. Thanks!

Regarding the recent events

Hey everyone. I’m sure people have all made statements all over the place, and I’m late as usual. My PC broke last week and I principially refuse to try using social media apps on mobile (so much hate).

I’m not gonna go into the details of the Ryan (and Adam) situation. I’m sure we’re all well too aware.

And I’m not gonna lie, I’m upset. More upset than I thought I was before the shock wore off yesterday. I’m gonna take some time off from fandom to figure out how I feel about everything, but these are the certainties I can give you:

my fics are gonna stay up, both on Ao3 and tumblr

if I end up leaving, I’ll be posting all unfinished WIPs on Ao3

I’m not gonna condemn anyone who decides they’re gonna keep creating. The character ≠ the person.

I’m not gonna judge anyone who doesn’t want to stay/wants to delete their stuff. This is also a valid response.

We’re all upset. We’re all gonna deal with this in our own ways. But please don’t redirect your hurt into hurting someone just because they cope in a different way.

I’m probably gonna end up deleting @funfahcts (with warning) once I phase out of fandom, because:

I’m not sure in which camp I’m gonna fall yet personally, re: continuing to write, but I’m probably gonna phase out of the ragehappy fandom regardless. There’s a couple reasons for that, including Ryan being a pretty central character to most of my ships, me being unable to watch most of any RT/AH videos rn, and my muse falling into the camp of not being able to read fic with him anymore. Since she’s my primary writing motivation and I’m unable to gain new motivation through watching the vids, the fact is that this is gonna very likely fizzle out for me long-term.

Things that I’m trying to decide:

wtf do I do with Patreon once I stop writing ragehappy

which of the stories on my list do I want to complete vs. post unfinished

specifically: how many of the Jeremwood Dragons and Blindfold Remix scenes can I stomach finishing (vs. would regret never finishing?)

WIPs I’m 100% post-dropping unfinished: Retired (Mavinwood, fahc), Untitled (Turnfreewood, kings), Untitled (Ramwood, kings)

Stories that I’m tending towards finishing rn: two stories in the Misfits series (Ray’s introduction and the Finale)

I might drop some plot outlines for things I didn’t get to in my drabble collection once I’ve decided. For now, I meant to take November off for my original NaNo project anyway, so I’m gonna take that time to figure myself out re: ragehappy fandom.

Thank you all for the lovely years. I met so many great people here and made so many lovely friends <3

[staranon95]

What about Jack and Geoff, and Post Team for your new FAHC headcannons?

alright. i also had another anon ask the same thing about Jack so im going to play around with what we know about Team OG. instead of sticking with the term Gents, this is what i propose

The OGs

Team OG which refers to their original status but also used in the slang term of Oh jeez it’s Jack and Geoff

Both are largely out of the game and have wisely invested their money so they can live their lives out in peace, but still. If you want to try something sketchy in the city, the both of them will probably hear about it and might set you straight

The Lads know of OG since OG invested in their chop shop/custom garage after Jeremy lifted Jack’s car to which Jack was pretty impressed and Geoff was killing himself laughing about it because god Jack loves her cars and it pissed her right off that one of her brand new models immediately got jacked

Suffice to say, there is some level of respect between the Lads and OG

Geoff does more forward facing business deals to ensure their money is safe, while Jack has taken it upon herself to sort of become a mentor to the others?

Jack knows Fiona because Gavin is paying for her to steal something from Jack and Geoff’s place so it becomes a thing where Fiona would steal things from the two teams, constantly playing them against each other

Trevor and Alfredo also pull pranks on Jack but more for shits and giggles than anything else. It frustrates her a lot, but she’s also like the one person the Twins call when they know they’re in deep and need a hand out

Post Team (before we get started I do not know much about the editors. i know of Sara and Larry so that’s what we’re going to talk about)

Sara and Larry are 2 post-graduates who are really just looking to get some work to manage their student loans. They’re not even into the criminal lifestyle. They just get dragged into it because of circumstances

Sara actually gets a job as Geoff’s PA. All on the table business, nothing shady. Technically. But sometimes it’s not just Geoff she’s dealing with but the other teams. Fielding calls from them, weird requests when she’s asking why they need a meeting with him.

“Can you tell him that the, uh, golf cart is in the pond?” says Gavin. “I’m real sorry about that.”

“Okay, so we’re going to need an advance on that loan,” Trevor says and then in the background Alfredo adds, “Yeah and also $10,000 more dollars.”

“Yeah, I just want to apologize Geoff for, uh, hacking his computer like that,” Matt says. “The Baby Shark song was funny in hindsight, but uh, I’m ready to admit when I know I’ve lost here.”

Larry gets a job with the Lads! They need help with their administrative work and between the three of them, they don’t have one college credit to spare, so Larry gets to work on the back end and front end for their website so they can book clients easier and also keep track of their finances! Because that’s important when you’re running a chop shop/custom garage.

The chop shop is managed after hours but sometimes Larry doesn’t leave until late as the Lads come rolling in with a nice sports car, all three dressed head to toe in black. Jeremy says, “You didn’t see nothing.” And hands Larry a hundred dollar bill even though they already pay him more than enough. He doesn’t ask questions, and they pick him up donuts and coffee the next day.

Larry and Sara often talk to each other on business matters because the Lads will get Larry to make calls for them

They use these calls to gossip and complain about the oddities of their employers, but these jobs pay. And money talks.

Got any FAHC Fiona Headcanons?

 why yes i do

- she moved to Los Santos because she got bored and was like, fuck yeah yellow and black colour scheme

-and everyone started calling her a star like literally a  in space star so she just goes with it, some how making sure people know shes a SuperNova (haha get it)

-she joins the Fakes after most everyone and its still all new to her, the whole "you have people you can trust" and ryan can see this so of course she connects with him but like, hes the vagabond so its terrifying

-she also accidentally gets adopted by Jack after she stays up one night too late. Next thing she knows, Jack is taking her out for relaxation days and small heists and surprises her with cookies

-she also somehow has a sibling like thing with gavin, this absolute buffoon. She originally was terrified of him, the whole Golden Boy is perfect and already knows everything thing, and she once told this to ryan who laughed and was like, oh dont worry, Gavin wouldn't go within ten feet of him when Ryan first joined,  now he will randomly just curl up beside him after business deals, even when Ryans covered in blood from his own missions

-this help ed. Her and then they got put on a heist together and oh no it went off the rails easily, but at least t hey trust each other now, right ? Trevor has lost so many years off his life from worrying about those two, the fearless duo that would do literally anything

-she is a wildcard a lot like Lindsay but she always prefers to get close up to anyone she has to fuck around with, and so while she does know how to use a sniper rifle, she doesnt do it with the crew cause she'll shoot near their feet and laugh on their comms

-she also has her "rages" and i just got the image of fiona coming back to the penthouse slightly singed while ryan and gavin stood on either side of her, ryan untouched and gavin covered in all sorts of toy golden jewelry.ryans on a murder break and went to "supervise"

[heisttheblackflag]

right-hand man michael

michael has always been a fighter. it starts defending his little sister, moves to the smaller kids at school, becomes defending himself when the names get crueler and the insults get nastier. he becomes a Problem, his name synonymous with broken noses and bloodied knuckles and detention. he doesn’t have friends, too busy defending his body to pay much attention to his heart.

it’s not really a surprise his violence becomes his life. he’s picked up by a gang when he’s 16, wandering the streets when he’s suspended again, and he hits back so hard they decide they own his fists now. from there it’s guns and offensive driving and having his reputation as a snarling wolf built for him. he’s less a bodyguard than a barely-restrained direwolf, made to sic on command. there’s too much blood on his hands to leave.

when he sees golden he sees a way out. gold eyes, gold blood, gold flashing off the honed edge of a knife. he’s tired of being treated as nothing more than a pair of fists and he knows when golden looks at him he sees potential. things change fast: he doesn’t realise he’s waiting to see the flash of a golden pistol until he does and suddenly his current kennel master is dead and he’s killing the pathetic dogs they thought he was no better than.

hello, a dripping hand outstretched. how would you like to build an empire?

[monarchisms]

I had a whole playlist saved for an eventual FAHC fanfic (that will...need to go through SEVERE re-planning given recent events and He Who Should Be Ashamed being a focal point originally) that I jam out to when I’m writing. The two I was using and focusing on a lot were “Interlude IV (Showtime)” by Zach Callison and “Hard to Kill” by Beth Crowley. “Interlude IV” is already a conversation based song and was used for an argument between two anti-heroes. “Hard to Kill” was gonna be focused on the Vagabond’s backstory but now I’m conflicted on either 1) Keeping the Vagabond as a nameless villain FAHC has to deal with or 2) deleting him entirely and coming up with a new villain. I can write either, it’s more MORALLY trying to decide what to do.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the songs! Sorry I went off on a tangent hahaha!

dude, these songs are wonderful!! whatever you decide to do with the vagabond, i wish you good luck <3

[redfire-blackash-whitegold]

"Super””Heroes”

The Fake AH Crew had superpowers. This was no surprise to anyone. It was natural that they should, after all, so many others did. Truly, the world had gotten to a point where it was more strange to not have powers. Not by a large margin, 51/49 in favour of powers, but when it came to important people, powerful people, they almost always had a power of some kind. 

The ones with super-intelligence, they were the engineers, the businessmen, the forerunners of the tech scene, the ones that were known. The super-charismatic ones, they were the politicians, the salesmen, the actors, the ones that got seen. The ones with super-strength, they were the military, the police, the crime bosses. The ones who struck fear. 

So naturally the Fakes were powered, naturally they were incredible and unique in some way or another. Of course they were powered, what was the alternative, that they were just average, every day people able to stand up to gangsters and police officers that were themselves hyper strong, hyper fast, invulnerable, invisible? That would be ridiculous. 

The Fakes were well known, were public figures in their own right. Everyone knew their faces, their names, what they drove, what state they were all originally from. But no one knew what their powers actually were. It was a well kept secret, the one thing the Fakes didn’t give away. It was impressive considering how public they were, how little else they bothered to hide. Sure the LSPD knew, the more important members of the underground knew, but no one was talking and the public was in the dark.

Geoff Ramsey had a superpower. His coffee was always hot. No matter how long he left it, no matter how cold it was outside, Geoff’s coffee was always just at that temperature where if he took a small sip it was perfect and tasty but if he drank too much all at once he would burn the front of his tongue and the gums behind his front teeth. It didn’t apply to other people, if he made a pot of coffee it would be perfect but the second someone else brought it to their lips it would cool just like any normal coffee would. It also meant he could never drink iced coffee, but then, Geoff never liked cold coffee anyway and besides, hot coffee was so much more satisfying to throw at people. 

Lindsay Jones had a superpower. She always knew which way was north. She could, as a result, always estimate which way was east, west, and south, but never with the precision in which she could determine northwards. This helped orient her in the city, she often knew which way downtown was, but it didn’t help her learn the names of streets or roads, didn’t make her any better with directions. Not that she was bad with directions, but she wasn’t supernaturally good with them either. She always joked that she would be the best person to have around if they were in a plane crash and stranded in the woods.

Gavin Free had a superpower. He was immune to flames. He could hold his hand over a candle for hours and not get burned. He was not immune to smoke, nor heat, nor the coals and ashes left after a fire. He could not, for example, walk safely through a burning building after he had set it aflame, at least not without carving black canyons into his lungs and coming to understand on a fundamental level what it was like to be steamed meat or boiled lobster. He left with no scars, just a flat, perfect sunburn that peeled horribly everywhere, even under his clothes. There were no flames that could melt specific sections of flesh, only heat that bored into his skin everywhere.

Ryan Haywood had a superpower. He was a were-caterpillar. Once a month, on the new moon, Ryan would change, would shrink, would leave his clothes behind as he became a small multi-legged creature that could crawl up walls and move only very slowly. He only ate leaves, and was especially vulnerable to being stepped on. He did not control his transformation, and only possessed some memories of the events that transpired while he was in caterpillar form. He was well hidden in that form, the terrarium he had built for himself being the only place anyone in the crew knew where to look for him, let alone anyone outside of the circle of knowledge. This was a blessing and a curse, made for effective hiding, effective escaping if it happened at just the right time, but made accidents far more dangerous, jobs that much more difficult.

Jack Pattillo had a superpower. She was immune to damage from glass. She could not be cut in any way by glass or fibreglass or glass-like plastic. She could be damaged by anything else, just as could anyone. She first discovered this immunity after a horrible car crash that rocketed her part way out the front window. The shattered window failed to give her a single scrape, and even failed to give her the head trauma that might have been associated with being pitched through a double layer of protective glass. Her power did not protect her from the roof crushing her, nor did it protect her from the shard of metal that had lodged itself in her side from the console, but she was at least alive to feel the pain. 

No one else in the FAHC had powers. This had a tendency to surprise those that found out. They were not invincible, not immortal, they couldn’t see the future or turn back time, they had normal, everyday useless powers and most of them didn’t even have that. The Fakes were people, just people, who happened to be good at what they did.
