#paracosm: here comes hero beau

[dreaminpeaches]

How do your paras celebrate the New Year? How do they feel about New Year’s resolutions? Do they have any? And, if you’ve daydreamed then celebrating before, is there a memorable moment from a previous New Year’s celebration?

Beau used to spend new years with his football party, think like a tailgate taken to the extreme, although he remind sober enough to come back home to watch the countdown with his family

Now, he just spends it mostly at home, sometimes his mother will ask him to come along with her to a party one of her clients is throwing, but they usually dont stay long before Beau gets socially anxious.

If the weather is nice (not rainy not too cold), he'll go outside with him and his sibling to watch the first sunset for the new years, usually on the rooftop of his house

Bonnie used to spend her new years eve with her mother, who would invite a bunch of people over, mostly suck ups and stuff. It wasn't really that fun, but it was the only night her mom would let her stay up late so she made the most of it

Once Bonnie got older and started going to cons, and started making real friends, she spent new years over at their place, and even one time a con schedule aligned with new years. So there was a huge party in one of the hotel ball rooms, it was a blast.

Flashbang (Hero! Beau)

In the city that Flashbang lives in there's a whole festival for the new years, there's games, food, and a parade. Its a little bit like halloween bc people like to dress as the animal of whatever year animal is (i.e this year everyone would dress up like a bunny). Some people only stick with a mask or some ears, others go all out and wear a full costume.

Candy is giving out during the parade and by various street vendors for free because it serve as a energy boost for staying up past midnight especially for the young ones.

Flashbang usually sticks with just ears and an outfit that gets off the vibe of the animal of the year (if that makes any sense). He usually spends the costume money on his siblings to get cool costumes. Sometimes Dev will dress up sometimes not depending on his mood. Carrie always wears a costume because she likes playing dress up.

Once its 30 mins to midnight, Flashbang leaves the festival to go to a place with less people, high up to see the fireworks. He leaves before the countdown bc there have been MANY times where random people have kissed him for good luck, while he likes making people feel happy it just made him feel some type of way.

Like Beau, Flashbang also like to watch the first sunrise, he brings along a blanket because usually one of his siblings ends up falling alseep even when they dont want to.

On new years, he gets a strong feeling that his mother is watching him. He often wonders what she would think about all the stuff he did that year, would she be proud of him? what would his mom look like this year? change of hair? change of clothing style? he tries not to think about it too much because it makes him kind of sad, but he makes sure every year not to forget about her.

Bonnie's new years is kind of the same as her humble pie counter part, the only thing is her mother doesn't allow her to stay up past midnight because her daughter must follow a busy schudle.

Now living with Flashbang, she gets to experience new years in a whole new way, she loves watching the parade, feeling the vibrant energy in the streets, and watching the fireworks. She tries to do a full dress up, but she usually ends up feeling really silly so she just settles on making herself a really cute mask.

Bonnie really enjoy watching the sunrise with Flashbang, even if she usually ends up falling asleep before seeing it fully peek over the horizen.

Hero! Beau Fact #12(?):

Hero!Beau- Lightning Scar

I mentioned in the 5 min ship meme that Beau has lightning powers

Its addition to his fire and speed powers (since lightning moves in  a flash and usually when lighting strikes something fire appears!)

He got this lighting powers on the same day this mom passed away, the same day he decided to be a hero. When his powers first came in Flashbang got stuck with lighting.

His lighting powers are connected to his anger, which is why he tries to keep his anger under control and why he took up yoga and mediation. This was harder to do when he was younger (he struck himself ALOT), but as Flashbang has gotten older its been easier to manage.

Flash bang has an ultra form where his  lighting powers on full blast, although his ultra form has different phases depending on how much he lets himself give into his anger and frustration. There are 3 phases, phase 1 is alot stronger than when he uses his lightning powers in burst (also has slight control over the weather too), and in phase 3 his powers are at the strongest (and he almost has full control over the weather, rain, fog, and thunder to be exact)  but this phase is the hardest to control. Electrical sparks help Flashbang float in phase 1 but in phase 2 and 3 the lighting scars on his back turn into wings, and his hair turns into flames along with his eyes,

Once Flashbang uses his ultra form, he becomes very weak and may even pass out. After that he’s bedridden for about a week or two. He can move from the bed because his back is usually in pain (but this only last for 3 days), after those 3 days he just has bouts of fatigue for the rest of the week.

Flashbang feels a bit of shame when looking at the scars on his back, he feels partially responsible for his mother death, and he keeps his  back covered because of this. Although he enjoys being shirtless he’ll keep his cape or his jacket  on for that reason. He feels more comfortable being completely shirtless at home (since its just him and his siblings)

His scars are sensitive to touch, when people touch his back he’ll tense up more than others

Hero!Bonnie :. *Grabs Beau by the belt*

Hero!Beau: "W-whoa! Okay you have my attention, is there something you need?"

Hero!Bonnie:....*Her lips quiver, her face fills with a beet red color*

she lowers her face not being able to look Beau in the eye, while still holding on to his belt

Hero!Beau: "I-is there some you want?"

Hero! Bonnie: *nods* her head still pointed down

Hero!Beau:"Do you want....me?"

Hero!Bonnie: *nods*

Hero!Beau: "Huh...D-do you want to... with me or--"

Hero!Bonnie:"NO!NO!NO! I just want a kiss!.... please"

Hero!Beau: "OH! okay, good...phew, thank God! I mean it's not like I wouldn't with you, it's just i-i don't think I'm ready...."

Hero! Bonnie:"Y-Yeah, I'm fine with just kissing for now"

[dreaminpeaches]

Okay, I gotta give some attention on this blog to my current hyper fixation, but I think..no I KNOW Arataki Itto would get along swimmingly with Hero!Beau it would be like drinking buddies type of vibe, but while OG Beau would be like "Ugh, not this dude again?" I could totally see Itto begging Beau to fight him and Beau just being like "No"

Bonus if Itto in his original drip and not in like a modern update one like as if was literally snap into the dimension, Beau would be like "Alright, What The F@#$ is THIS!"

Bonnie would like him tho'

Hero Beau Fun Fact # 10(?):

Unlike, Humble Pie Beau, Hero Beau like to wear more outragious and colorful outfits, if he sees a fit he think he can rock, he'll try it on, regardless of if its "for guys" or "for girls", and even if it doesn't rock, he'll make it ROCK!

The Lyrics come from:

The lyrics

"no regrets (waste of time, but it’s on my mind)

I tried my best (oh what a fool, what a fool)

so don't forget my love (I did it all for the love)"

I think describes Beau pretty well, since that's the way he goes about doing his superhero stuff, along with a just about everything else...

Base on this fit:

Hero! Beau: Magical Girl! Bonnie

Okay! Okay! so I FINALLY I figured where Bonnie fits in the Hero! AU, in the Hero! AU, Bonnie is a magical girl (a fairly new one, too). She recently started a new life after being under her mother for so long, her mother is the same in this AU as she is in the original paracosm. But in this AU, Magical Girl! Bonnie is a bit more shy and soft-spoken and because of that she doesn't really have any friends and it took a lot to break from her mother. When she finally did she had enough money to get a small kind of shaggy (not in a cool way) apartment downtown in the city.

In the start the only friend, Bonnie has is a baby swan that she heals back to healthy, the swan that she helped turned out to be a magical familiar that entrusted her with a magical emblem that transforms her into a princess knight and giving her a sword that also doubles as a magic wand that she can use to perform spells and summonings (think Bayonetta and final fantasy).

Bonnie is both pretty happy and nervous to be a magical girl because while she does like saving and helping people, she is very clumsy especially when she gets nervous, it was a trait that really hindered her in her ballet performances and one that her mother really resented her for.

Other than being a magical girl, Magical Girl! Bonnie still works at a maid cafe (one that Hero! Beau frequents a lot because-- ladies), even though Bonnie is happy with her job, she is still shy about telling people where she works because her mother made it seem like people who work at maid cafes were losers. Magical Girl ! Bonnie still enjoys anime and manga she's just more shy about it since she never had friends and any time she would bring up the subject in one of her etiquette classes that her mother sent her to, she would get looks of cringe and disgust.

In her spare time, Magical girl! Bonnie likes to write poems and short stories, she used to write a lot of fanfic when she was younger but since that one time her mother read and made fun of her fanfic that Bonnie accidentally left open on her computer, Bonnie is shy about anyone reading her stuff beside her swan familiar.

Bonnie first meets Hero! Beau when she was battling a really tough monster, usually Bonnie fights on her own because she doesn't want to get in anyone's else way. This monster was so tough that it broke her magical girl emblem, leaving her powerless and allowing the monster to knock her cleanout.

When Bonnie finally came to, she found herself at Beau's place, Beau had saved her, first thinking that she was just a civilian but when Dev found Bonnie's broken emblem near by they realized she was a fellow hero. Beau watched over Bonnie until she woke up and explained what happened and where she was, since Dev was a pretty smart kid it took him no time to fix her emblem. Bonnie, not having any experience talking to boys besides the rude ones in her etiquette class that just treated her like arm candy, she just nodded her head and uttered a soft "Thank you" before leaving.

She ran out quickly with a heated face, thinking that was just a one off thing, but little did she know she would end up running into Beau and Dev more often (and quite literally so). Due to her clumsiness and nerves getting the best of her, Bonnie would end up passed out and having to be saved by Beau (at least when she tried to fight the bigger enemies by herself).

But the more and more Beau and Bonnie ran into each other she slowly started to warm up to him and talk to him a bit more, going from just simple head nods to one-word sentences (which was a pretty big leap for her)

Their relationship really started to kick in gear, when one day when Bonnie was on her way to work on her scooter, it suddenly gave out and stopped working (I guess that what you get when you buy a 20 $ scooter from a shady looking hooded figure). Luckily, for Bonnie her scooter broke down near Beau's place, and she remembered him talking about how much he enjoyed working on cars and stuff during one of their one-sided conversations.

Beau was happy that Bonnie trusted him with such a task, but due to how bang-up her scooter was it might take a couple weeks to get it in working order, until then Beau offered to ride her to work on his motorcycle until he can get her scooter fix.

Bonnie was nervous since she had never been on a motorcycle or at least on a motorcycle with a boy but she really liked her job and really needed the money, so she agreed.

Bonnie was hesitant at first to wrap her arms around Beau, she even asked multiple times if it was okay, Beau was of course okay with it. She wrapped her arms around him, but sat straight the whole time, because the thought of her resting her head on his back was making her feel weird.

Bonnie told Beau to drop her off at the street corner nearby the place she worked but she didn't want Beau to find out where she worked.

Beau would pick up Bonnie on the same street corner when work was done, he would often drop her off at his place to show her how far along he was on fixing her scooter. Bonnie didn't mind it since she really liked learning new stuff, and Beau really liked being able to go on and on about mechanic stuff since it was only one of the few times he felt smart.

In turn for helping her with her scooter, Bonnie offered to teach Beau how to fight with a sword, since it was one of the few fighting styles he wasn't really good with. Bonnie's mom had her take fencing classes when she was younger, so she was pretty familiar with the subject, and Bonnie loved helping people learn new stuff. Although things did get a little awkward when she had to stand really close to Beau to readjust his sword fighting stance...(Oh boy!~)

Also sometimes while Bonnie was at Beau's place, Dev would ask to see her emblem, he was really fascinated by how it worked and wanted to see if could he improve on it by making it more durable for battle and also added some cool new functions as well.

Bonnie also enjoyed playing with Carrie, since Carrie really liked the stories that Bonnie would make up, and would even ask her to write them down so she could draw pictures from to make her own storybooks that she would share with the other kids at daycare.

The more time Bonnie spent with Beau and his siblings, the more she started to realize how lonely she was back at her apartment, besides her familiar, there wasn't that much company, and not to mention that her apartment wasn't in the "safest" part of town (which explains why she got it for so cheap). Being around Beau and his siblings was 10xtimes better than listening to the police radio for another monster attack.

It took a while, but Bonnie was able to mustard the courage to ask Beau if she could stay with them, Beau agreed since he liked really having Bonnie around, she reminded him of his mom in a weird kind of way, and it always cool to another hero to their team.

New Paracosm AU: Big Hero Beau

@decaykid yes, kind of...

Okay, like I said in my last post this idea came to me after listening to Fist Pump and Viva Namida on loop with pacing.

So you know like how the original Humble Pie paracosm is very western horror kind of drama, yeah? well, this paracosm is just full on ANIME BBY!!! I'm talking Space Dandy, I'm talkin' Gurren Lagann, I'm talkin maybe a little bit of Trigun, and also takes alot from action rpgs like Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Persona, Viewitful Joe, and Wonderful 101 (but its like only two people), and takes alot from Sonic the hedgehog (mostly Sonic Underground, Sonic Adventure 2, and Sonic Forces), and little bit from Fancy Pants ( that's not an anime or a "real" video game, its just an old flash game I used to hyperfixate on).

This paracosm is completely different which is why I gave it, it's own name instead of just adjective then "!"

This version of Beau takes a lot of inspiration from Dandy ( Space Dandy), Vash The Stampede (Trigun), Sonic The Hedgehog (Sonic The Hedgehog), and Kamina (Gurren Langann)

In this paracosm, both of Beau's parents perished in a tragic accident, Beau takes his siblings to an abandoned shack and they hide out and live out there. the tragedy this motivative Beau to become stronger and a hero, not only to keep his siblings safe but others too. The last thing his mom told him was that his smile could save a thousand lives, so because of that he always keeps an upbeat, go get 'em attitude, and he doesn't want to bum his younger siblings out. His mom also gave Beau her heart shape locket before she passed on, so Beau has worn it ever since that day.

The locket is very precious to him, he doesn't let anyone touch it (other than his siblings), and if he loses it he'll go into a panic attack and can't do anything else until he finds it again.

Dev, Beau's little brother, also wants to be strong and a hero, he tries to train like his brother but he can't keep up. Beau tells Dev that he has to be strong in his own way, so Dev decides to put his tech skills to good use and make his older brother cool weapons for him to use. I forgot to mention in this paracosm some people are born with superpowers and such, and Beau's superpowers are super strength and speed, while Dev's superpower is super intelligence.

Dev can't keep up with his brother on foot, so he made himself a jetpack to keep up, and makes science weapons for himself to use.

In this paracosm, there are evil robots, pirates, bandits, ninjas, demons, fallen angels, giant spiders, bad guys who kidnap pretty people, any enemy you would find in a video game or anime yeah it's probably here. So, there's always something for Beau and Dev to fight or someone to save from something.

Beau and Dev don't have secret identities since superpowered people are common but they get to have a pretty rad transformation scene activate when they fist bump each other.

Beau fighting style is similar to that of a hack and slack fighting game, Beau mostly use his fists to fight and his speed, he'll also use guns too, but he'll only use swords if he thinks he can pull off a cool move, since not really experience using them that much. Dev made Beau special gloves and boots that make the attack range of his hit larger so its easier to take out hoards of stuff like robots (which happens lot) and big enemies like giant monsters.

His boots are also guns so its like....

Oh, and Beau also makes sure that he always looks cool when fighting just in case someone takes a pic (which happens alot). Unlike Bayonetta, Beau is more playful with his posing rather than sexy.

Dev's wits come in handy when the two come across puzzles, riddles, or finding a way out of traps on their adventures since Beau didn't complete school once his parents passed and mostly focus on raising his siblings and hero training.

Much like Sonic, Beau is very snarky and witty while fighting his enemies (or at least tries to be), he always tries to make a snarky comment or a really cool zinger before finishing off his enemy. Due to his kind of being not the sharpest tool in the shed, it can take a while for him to come up with a good zinger, so it kind of stalls fights, and sometimes it gets to the point where the enemy is just like "Oh my GOD! just KILL ME!", this also annoys and embarrasses Dev too at times.

Beau makes money from bounties and doing odd jobs around, he makes enough for his siblings to live comfortably, but there are times where he'll go hungry because he only has enough for Dev and Carrie to eat. Beau is still a kind of a lower-level hero compare to the other well know ones around.

Dev has also made a rocket ship so they can fight intergalactically on other planets

Carrie in this paracosm is still 4 years old, she has yet to show any signs of having powers, which is pretty normal for her age since people in this world don't show powers until they hit their pre-teen years.

Beau will take Carrie on their adventures if it's safe enough, but if the mission is too dangerous Beau will take her to the nearest daycare or the nearest trustworthy femme person. Beau will try to make the mission or fight end quickly as possible if he left Carrie with a stranger, there's a sigh of relief once he finds her safe, if not (which doesn't happen a lot thankfully), well somebody gonna die and Beau tries to make it up to her by spending the next few days with her, just him and Carrie.

Beau tries to put being a good guardian/older brother before being a hero and tries his best to spend as much time with Carrie and Dev as possible on chiller/lower stakes days.

Beau had never had time to really process the feeling of losing his parents, there are days where he feels down but he never lets it show around his siblings or have it affect his hero work. There are nights where those memories keep him up, sometimes he'll cry but still try to smile thru the tears.

Beau likes to give peps talks to himself in the mirror, and pep talks to Dev, when he's feeling discouraged, although most of the time those pep talks don't really make any sense Dev still appreciate his brother's kind words.

Since Beau saves people, he interacts a lot with damsels in distress, he flirts with them, but usually gets rejected for coming across as too cheesy or cocky. He doesn't really mind it tho, he actually finds it funny, but when a lady actually flirts back he gets really flustered and has to leave immediately. Despite this Beau still tries to give Dev advice on talking to girls.

Beau still smokes and drinks because the stress of having to raise young siblings, dealing with trauma, and being a hero can be alot, but he still makes sure his siblings don't see him and he doesn't get too wasted.

Other than hero stuff, Hero! Beau enjoys reading comics, parkour, skateboarding, break dancing (which he incorporates in his fighting for some really cool finishers), practicing cool poses and phrases, playing video games with his little brother, and watching barbie movies with his little sisters (since Barbie reminds him of his mom).

Oof, I think that's all I got for now....

TL;DL Basically if this version of Beau is Sonic the original Beau is more like Shadow if that makes any sense.

Thinking about this fact again, prolly gonna make series of drawing featuring Flashbang in different shades and in different fits
