I finally said fuck it and started working on a Spiderman RvB au
Tucker gets his spider powers the summer before college. Tucker then starts college and meets his roommate Caboose, and their room is next to Tucker’s childhood best friend (although no one believes they’re best friends because they’re always fighting) Church. Church’s dad owns and runs a well known company that does a lot of scientific research where a lot of upperclassmen from their college (the freelancers) tend to intern at. Tucker, Caboose, and Church have a bit of a prank war going with some of their neighbors, Grif, Simmons, Donut, and Doc.
Doc eventually gets the symbiote O’Malley
I think Wash might also be roommates or something with the blues even though he’s an upperclassmen so both teams have 4 people in the dorms. I was considering Tex at first since she joins the team sooner than Wash, but no way would Church’s dad allow that (Church’s dad is the director and I’m thinking he’s like this universe’s Norman Osborn)
I have so many thoughts you have no idea

Percy Jackson au since I was listening to the soundtrack and rvb has made a permanent spot in my brain. This ended up much longer than I thought it was and it's really just the sparknotes. So uh, enjoy my rantings.
Carolina is the daughter of Athena. Her dad did not know her mom was a god and when she inevitably left, he thought that making his daughter the best of the best at everything would bring her back. It did not. Now Carolina has issues. Church is Carolina's younger brother but is fully human. He does, however, have the ability to see all the mythological creatures that come around chasing after Carolina and gets dragged with her to Camp Half-Blood since he's also being abused by their dad.
Connie is a daughter of Athena, but she became a hunter of Artemis and basically got disowned for it (which wasn't all that different from how she was being treated by her mom before). She's on good terms with most of the freelancers, but her and Carolina have a lot of drama since Carolina hates the fact that Connie left to be a hunter instead of staying to make their mother proud.
South and North are the children of Ares. South is a very stereotypical Ares kid who is all competitive and aggressive and ready to throw down for any reason. North is much calmer than his sister and his other Ares siblings and prefers to talk things out before beating the shit out of someone. He almost single handedly got himself and his sister to Camp Half-blood, so you know he's not to be underestimated. Maine is also an Ares kid but more of the silent and deadly type. Even before injuring his throat on a quest, he was very intimidating to most of the campers even though he's generally pretty chill.
York is the son of Hermes and has been at Camp since he was very little. He's definitely a trickster and likes to pull harmless little pranks around camp to get the other campers feeling more like kids instead of soldiers. He's the councilor of his cabin and is usually the one to give orientation to the new campers. Wash is also a Hermes kid but with more of the cunning and thievery part of his godly parent. He's a sneaky little shit with the wits of an Athena kid. Definitely traumatized, but underneath all his teenage angst is a good hearted kid who wants to protect his friends.
Tex is the daughter of Zeus and is the powerhouse of camp. She's been at camp almost as long as York has but been on twice the amount of quests as everyone in camp combined. She despises the fact that Church is at camp, but he's also the only kids brave enough to call her out on her bullshit so bluntly so he gets to stick around... for now.
Wyoming is the son of Apollo because look at this man. You cannot tell me he wasn't a theater kid in high school. Specifically the very annoying ones that ruin the production for everyone else because they have to be in the spotlight. He's got an annoyingly good voice and his jokes are subpar but everyone wants to knock this guy down a peg so bad.
Florida is the son of Dionysus and lives for the madness and chaos of half-blood life. He's got a bloodthirst that makes the Ares kids look tame and is infamous for that one game of capture the flag where he dislocated his shoulders to get out of a trap and then continued to play the game like nothing happened. He is scary and campers fear him (expect for Wyoming because they match each other's crazy).
Now the reds and blues!
Tucker is the son of Aphrodite and has the worst charm voice ever, cannot get anyone to fall for it ever. The only person he's semi-gotten was Wash and that's because that man is a simp and already acts stupid when he's around Tucker. That being said, Tucker hates using his charm voice anyways because, as an Aphrodite kid, everyone always assumes that they have free range to touch or drag him around like he doesn't have standards for the people he wants to kiss/date and he doesn't want to force others into that same situation. Luckily, his siblings are awesome and they all have each other's backs for shit like this and that especially goes for baby Junior that every child in Aphrodite Cabin would die for.
Caboose and Sarge are Satyrs, Sarge being a veteran in bringing kids to camp while Caboose's first trek with half-bloods was when he brought Carolina, Church, and Tucker to camp. Sarge was the one to bring Simmons, Grif, and Donut btw and I like to think that campers are all attached to the satyrs that brought them to camp so the whole Reds vs Blues rivalry is basically just them fighting over who has the better Satyr.
Freckles is a hell hound, nuff said.
Simmons is the son of Hephaestus and spends hours hunkered down making little inventions that often time explode, not always on accident. Sarge can often be found with him since Simmons helped make his assistant bot Lopez who is always malfunctioning since, y'know, it's a summer camp with limited supplies. Grif can also be found with Simmons but is much less helpful and is always getting food all over Simmons work desk! It's incredibly inconsiderate.
Grif is the son of Dionysus who is way too similar to his dad. He's grumpy, he's snarky, he has a tendency to mispronounce or straight up make up names for people when he doesn't like or want to talk to them, and he's secretly very fond of the people who annoy him the most (Simmons). He has also gotten in trouble because he refuses to offer up his food to the gods so instead he started making booze at camp and pours one out for them instead. Grif has burns on his hands from the first time he did that because he forgot that alcohol was flammable.
Donut is our third Hermes kid but with a knack for communication and language. He's all about getting to see the world and meet new people but is content to settle for getting to know the various people who come to camp. He knows everything there is to know about mythology and monsters and the like. He also likes helping out in the infirmary (mostly so he can hang out with Apollo kid Doc, but that's neither here nor there) and gets campers to relax before procedures by getting them to chat about their lives and likes and interests.
THERE THAT'S EVERYONE YOU'RE DONE YOU'RE WELCOME

@halibellecter making a separate post for this since its easier and to everyone else hi this is my list of rvb characters that i think are midwestern -tucker (canon michigander) -donut (canon whatever the hell people from iowa are called) (its iowans i just looked it up) -church (but specificially in those aus where everything is normal and hes just like the directors kid or whatever) is from ohio to me and by extension carolina however i think its more of a born in the south moved to ohio later on type deal - for the sake of convenience i once put simmons in illinois for a high school au and he felt kind of at home there - wash is so from michigan it hurts - i know west virginia isnt part of the midwest but its also like right there so for the record thats where i think sarge is from - (if from earth) jensen would be from kansas thank you for listening to my bullshit presentation ive been projecting this entire time this concludes my once an eternity text post

Hey there! Do you know where I could find any RvB fics where all the funky brain stuff that happens is intentionally written as plurality? I've seen one or two but the only plurality fic that's tagged is a seemingly abandoned high school AU (the other one i found being a post s13 one-shot with plural Tucker+AI fragments which I thought was neat) and I really have no idea how else to go about searching for this sort of thing.
Thanks!
unfortunately we don’t read too much fic anymore but i can recommend you what i got
here is my profile: https://archiveofourown.org/users/ChromaticRoses/pseuds/LeonardAlphaChurch there’s only two fics on there right now and epsilon is actively plural in both but neither of them are really about his system and none of his fragments really make an appearance. however i’m going to try VERY hard to be posting our alpha lives au soon and the first part of that is literally all about the system so. keep your eyes peeled for that i guess.
But I Still Want To by feraandmera is a really cute modern wash/church fic where church explicitly has DID and it’s a major part of the fic. it’s part of a series too so there’s another fic there that’s mostly church and lina being family. the writer doesn’t have DID but it’s still a really accurate portrayal that made us 🥺 when we read it god. three years ago now?
The Things We Wish We Could Forget by Rainycat is a canon divergent merc!alpha chucker au where church also explicitly has DID. we weren’t able to finish it for personal trigger reasons BUT the stuff we did read up to was really good and we love it so much and some day i hope to be able to go back and finish it haha
also @rubykgrant writes a lot of stuff that falls into this category but i figure i will let her promo herself LOL
uh. those are the only i can think of at the moment. our memory for this stuff isn’t the greatest. if other people have any reccs PLEASE send them in. also any plural fic writers feel free to promo themselves here even if you don’t write about plurality but ESPECIALLY if you do
#asks#aterabyte#rvb#red vs blue#putting this in tags to hopefully get some more reccs#honestly i only remembered one of those fics bc there’s a message from its author in our ao3 inbox 💀 sorry i wish we had better memory for u

spn aus you say..... (please tell everything I am begging)
GIGGLING LIKE AN IDIOT!!!!! OKAY!!!!! warning this is a really long post kgjhjkgrjkd.
i've got 11 so far, but two of em (rvbnatural and spidernatural) barely have anything. rvbnatural is spn guys in the red vs. blue universe with dean, sam, and my oc jaime being a part of a special elite military project, similar to project freelancer in rvb. it's in the 2550s so it's set in same time frame as the halo games do. spidernatural is the spn guys in some sort of spiderverse, idk if it's like itsv/atsv or what, but it WAS inspired by atsv coming out. azazel is a spider demon guy wanting to take over the world with spider demon kids. he gives baby sam some spider demon blood and then little dean comes in and tries to protect him and he ends up bitten. both of them end up with spider powers and are spider-men.
but then i've got more in-depth aus! my most recent one is a modern au where jaime's family and dean's were next door neighbors for about their whole lives. jaime had to witness john abusing and neglecting his kids, and eventually he just decided he wasn't fucking having it anymore. he tricks john into coming into the woods and beats him to death with his baseball bat. garth is there and he helps bury the body.
john's sudden disappearance gets chalked up to be him going missing, sam and dean (and maybe adam, idk if he's gonna be here yet or not) go to live with bobby, and jaime thinks his problems are over. he and garth never speak of it again.
UNTIL several years later when some kids were digging around in the woods and they dug up john's body. it was obvious that john was murdered, his case is reopened. jaime becomes the main suspect. cas is going to be his defense lawyer.
there's my farmer au. sam and dean were born and raised on the winchester farm, being basically the only ones who worked there outside of their father. sam eventually goes to college, and john has to hire a farmhand. dunno who it is yet, but a few years later, that farmhand quit right before harvest time, so now it's just him and dean. he orders dean to make ads and put them up so that they can get a new farmhand.
enter jaime, who has just moved to their area of texas. he's never been living out of his guardians' house and though he thought moving across the state to be on his own was a good idea, he's sort of scrambling because he didn't have a real plan. he sees the ad and though he's never done farm work before, he has done manual labor and he figures he can pick up on this stuff fairly well.
plus, in exchange for working, he also gets to live in the farmhouse on the property, and he doesn't have to pay for food or rent (though he DOES get less pay due to this). he figures this is a pretty good deal, and ends up going to apply for the job. he gets it, despite the fact john doesn't like that he's kind of scrawny. (he reflects that dean's always been on the leaner side and he gets the job done "okay", and this is also the best he's got, so he has to go with it).
jaime and dean quickly become best friends--they're working together side-by-side almost all day, almost every day. come harvest time, dean and jaime are tasked with selling their crop at the farmer's market.
enter cas, the youngest of a wealthy family who has always been big buyers in the winchester crop. cas and dean have had fleeting encounters and both have a crush on each other tbh. jaime sees cas for the first time when cas comes to their stall on his first day at the farmer's market and definitely understands where dean was coming from.
next i've got my modern au that's got dean as a famous music artist. tbh i don't have so much for this one, but basically, dean is a music artist and he's been hitting a writer's block (or whatever you call it for songwriting) but something makes him remember his high school best friends/crushes (jaime and cas) and he ends up writing a song about them. and he doesn't use any pronouns in the song referring to them, and TECHNICALLY both "jaime" and "cas" can be considered gender neutral, so while the song is a huge hit once he releases it, there's also lots of discussion/controversy about it because "okay so are these two people girls or guys??? or one's a girl and one's a guy???" but it's funny because it's none of the above, jaime and cas are both non-binary. but anyways both jaime and cas end up hearing it on the radio and they're both like "oh my fuck he remembers me…"
and they've been living their separate lives far away from each other for many years but now they all begin reminiscing their high school "friendship" (they were all extremely gay for each other) and debate whether to try contacting each other again. i mean, dean wrote a song about them and it became a big hit and is currently being played all across the country right now. it would kinda make sense to do so. and they're all kinda missing each other, which they dismiss as nostalgia but it's really a lot more than that.
so jaime and cas find each other and then decide to attend to dean's next concert, bc he's on tour rn. they somehow get dean to notice them in the crowd (jaime's gonna do smth stupid prolly) and dean sees them and is SO HAPPY and he puts his whole pussy into that concert. and then they reunite and are all super happy to see each other again. and they can't just ignore dean's confession in the song.... they all end up getting together again, it's good.
next my merfolk au!!! MY FAVORITE HEHEHE!!! jaime and cas are two merpeople who live on the coast, next to an older fisherman's cabin owned by bobby. i'm not sure if in this au, merpeople are social beings in the way they live in pods or not, but either way, cas and jaime are rejected by basically anyone (cas is too weird, jaime is too aggressive (protective of cas!!!)) other than gabriel, who is cas' guardian, and then jaime's once he comes around (jaime's parents died, jaime ran (swam) away from the rest of his family and got lost, then found by cas).
dean has been visiting bobby's place since he was a little kid, and the first time jaime and cas saw him, they were instantly fascinated. they'd never seen a human their age before. jaime wanted to introduce themselves to dean but cas was shy and not ready so jaime was cool with that. they stuck to hanging out with bobby when sam and dean weren't there.
fast forward 15-20 some years. jaime gets captured by fishermen and sold to a freak show. cas comes up on land disguised as a human and begs dean for help (bobby's in town rn). it takes a while but with sam's help they're able to locate and rescue jaime. by this time, dean knows about cas and jaime being merpeople, and he's definitely awestruck by them when he sees them both in trueform. and they're both fascinated by him, which he finds embarrassing, because he doesn't believe beings so magnificent should find him, a measly human, fascinating.
then there's my dystopian/post-apocalypse au!!! cas lives in a glass-encased bunker that's been the "one safe place" since earth's nuclear fallout nearly 100 years before. dean and jaime are two people living outside the bunker, otherwise known as purgatory. jaime and dean have been best friends their whole lives and have gone through literally everything together--losing their parents, raising their little siblings (in jaime's case, cousin, but jackie has always been more like a sister to jaime rather than a cousin).
jaime, dean, sam, and jackie all go out searching for the bunker, wanting to see the real thing. they've heard stories about it, and the oldest people they've met remember being rejected from entering the bunker during the fallout due to the bunker being "too full". it takes years, but they do find it. cas sees them, and cas, who has been obsessed with learning all he can about purgatory for basically his whole life, is bursting with excitement about finding people on the outside.
chuck, cas' dad and the president of all the people in the bunker, is just SO MAD that his son found the outsiders before his people did. because see, ever since the higher-ups of the bunker realized there was still people surviving outside, they began to capture them, bring them secretly to secret labs, and basically experiment on them to find out how they can survive outside the bunker until they die. chuck did not stop this tradition when he became president and found out about all this.
so basically, chuck tries to find an excuse to get these four outsiders to "disappear" so that he can get them to his private labs to experiment on. there's a problem, because cas is attached to them, to two in particular really. and cas doesn't know about what chuck's doing--if he did, he wouldn't stand for it. so chuck has to try to do all he wants while keeping it hidden from cas. it doesn't end up working btw.
i've got my hunter!jaime au, which is basically what jaime's life would've been like if he'd grown up knowing about the supernatural. there is SO MUCH i have for it, i cannot put it all here, but i CAN make separate posts about it if you want me to!!!
i've got two soulmate aus--a soulmate tattoo au and a soulmate journal au. in the soulmate tat one, it's a lot like your usual au with this trope--you've got your soulmate's name tattooed to you somewhere. but sometimes, people are born with more than one name on them, or none at all, and those with more than one are mostly shunned by society, while those with none are pitied. jaime, cas, and dean all have two, ofc, and grow up with different reactions to it--jaime gets it an accepting family, though they're a little misguided in their support ("he's confused, but he's got the spirit" sort of deal). cas' is an outcast at school for it, and half his brothers despise him for it while the other half do their best to make sure he knows he's not alone. then dean gets the shittiest bit, with his godawful father hating him and definitely mistreating him for this. i'm using this au to be a thing in support of polyamorous and ace individuals, and i just hope i can do good with my representation.
then with the soulmate journal au, every baby has a journal pop up when they're born that they can use to communicate with their soulmate/s. jaime and cas talk with each other for several years and think only they are each other's soulmates, but dean is also their soulmate--john just confiscated his journal after mary died and never let him get a hold of it. however, jaime and cas fill up their initial journal and another one appears for each of them, and that ALSO makes another one appear to dean. he gets to write to his soulmates for the first time and it's a big whirlwind for him bc woah, finally, he gets to talk to them!!! but then again, the only examples of soulmates he's seen is his dad and the awful way he handled mary's death, so dean's not the fondest of the idea. he has to keep his journal hidden so no one ever finds it and takes away what becomes one of the only highlights in his life.
finally, my last one!!! this is just a regular modern au. jaime moves into a new town and tries to fit in. he gets a job at cas' bakery, and he meets dean at the mechanics shop, and they all fall in love :] it's very nice and sweet.
I'M SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG!!! this was a lot to type out 😭😭😭

Welp, with the encouragement of my dear sweet enablers, I've done it. I posted what I had sitting in my docs of the RvB university AU onto AO3.
The basic gist: Blood Gulch Hall is a student residence of the local university. It has a red hall of students, a blue hall of students, and a purple hall meant for the Residence Assistants. Sarge, of course, is one RA- convinced the two halls of students are separate and rivals- and so he's moved himself in amongst the students there. Flowers was the other RA until he suddenly died, leaving the blue hall with no real oversight.
After a prank gone wrong, the university decides a new RA needs to be assigned. Wash, a student who's distinguished himself to the school through the Project Freelancer student research placements, is given the job- much to his relief, as it's a sweet deal that saves him from his crushing student debt. Naturally, the local residents do not take kindly to his attempts at enforcing rules, and tomfoolery ensues.
Church is a history major finishing his final year of undergrad. As the member of Blood Gulch Hall that's been there the longest, he's especially tired of everyone's shit, but knows exactly how everyone seems to operate. He's also the son of the Director of the university, and has one of the biggest grudges against him and the school. In general, he's jaded and cynical, but likes fucking with the other residents and shooting the shit with Tucker.
Tucker is a political science major- after going on a student exchange program in high school with the intent of just getting away for a while so he could slack off and "pick up chicks who think foreigners are hot", he ended up accidentally adopting a role as an unofficial ambassador of his home country-and decided to try and pursue it as a career. He also minors in human sexuality- which he thought was going to teach him about how to be a sex god, but actually ended up making him re-evaluate himself and realize his constant talking about chicks was covering up his insecurity about his bisexuality.
Caboose is a mechanical engineering student in his third year. Though no one knows it, he's actually only been at the school for two years- he overloaded courses and passed them with surprisingly strong grades. He doesn't spell very well, which is mostly me leaning into the classic "engineers can't spell" joke, but he's extremely gifted in math and robotics, thinking in numbers and spacial reasoning- baffling his professors and classmates alike. Caboose is accustomed to a large family, which naturally comes with a lot of bickering. He views the group at Blood Gulch Hall like a surrogate family that way- and is happy to just smile and nod when they argue amongst themselves, more concerned with his latest robotics projects.
Kai is a business major- she's been running side hustles most of her life, it seemed natural for her to take it to the next level using the savings she'd made. She knows people don't typically view her as smart, that they look at her as a bimbo- and doesn't care. She sometimes even leans into the role if it means she can turn people underestimating her to her advantage. She throws awesome parties, knows all the cool people on campus, and has all the best self-care tips and tricks. She also delights in embarrassing her older brother at every opportunity.
Grif is a chemical engineering student- at the time, it seemed like a good idea. He had a dream, you see, to develop a banana flavouring that actually tasted like bananas, a grape flavouring that actually tasted like grapes. By the time he realized it would be a lot more complicated than that, it was too late- he was committed. He now spends his time suffering through and scraping by in all the core engineering classes, learning about motors and thermodynamics and waiting for the light in the tunnel. He passes his free time by developing a tier list of all the pizza joints across campus, and perfecting his own brownie recipe (with and without weed).
Simmons is an electrical and computer engineering student. He was always a nerd, but until he gained a bionic arm, he'd been leaning more towards the theoretical side of the sciences. After that, though, he was constantly studying in his own time, learning how to tinker with it and improve its performance- which naturally brought him to engineering. He's the kind of keener who does all the readings well in advance, visits every office hour even when he doesn't need help just in case there's interesting discussion, and stays after class to chat with professors. He pretends to be tired of Grif leaning on his to study for the things he doesn't find interesting, but he secretly enjoys being the smart one who can lecture his friend on a topic.
Donut is a vet sciences student- he grew up on a farm, surrounded by and caring for a myriad of animals, and kept the passion for it throughout his whole life. He plans on specializing in bovine and equine medicine, which means he doesn't get grossed out by much anymore. It throws people off when he cheerfully discusses sticking his arm inside a cow's ass- but he's so desensitized he doesn't even consider it, much to the dismay of Grif and Simmons. He and Kai are the residence's biggest supporters of self-care regimens, regularly getting together to discuss skin care while they give each other manipedis. He also enjoys wearing novelty themed earrings... when there isn't a concern of a patient biting them.
Sarge is the RA for the red team... and while very few people know it, that's actually the umbrella term over his true role as Faculty in Residence. He's a member of the engineering faculty, specializing in combustion modelling. After developing the Stagnation And Radiation Generalizing Equations method of computation and modelling (SARGE method for short), he was granted tenure and celebrated as a pioneer in his field. However, over time, he was left in the dust as the field was largely dropped in favour of more environmentally friendly things like electric vehicles. Very few people remember his contributions to the field now, and he's never really asked to teach classes, so he was appointed RA so the pay wasn't going to waste... and he's thrown himself quite cheerfully and passionately into his work.
Wash is a walking disaster- and by that, I mean he's in his third year, has no declared major, and is still trying to figure out what he wants to do with himself. Formerly part of the university's Project Freelancer, a research placement that recruits undergrads into a high-pressure work environment for very little pay, he's found himself burnt-out and exhausted. Being given a work-study position as the peer mentor RA of Blood Gulch Hall is a relief- it doesn't pay, but it's free housing and a waived tuition fee for the year that gives him time to figure his shit out. Unfortunately, his reliance on the job ends up becoming another source of stress... and it's a while before he learns the motions of living and working with his fellow residents.
...Obviously there's way more to it, more characters, more lore tidbits that I've yet to sprinkle in, et cetera. But this post is already long enough, so if there's interest, I'll probably post that another time.

top most embarrassing mel fandom phases 1-10 organized but not by most to least embarrassing
genuinely thought the MCU avengers family was the height of literature and shipped most of the popular ships. do not text
fully convinced that the boys in one direction were all having secret relationships with one another. you know what you'll never dissuade me from this one
has literally read more social network fanfiction than published literature. also has read a disgusting amount of tsn rpf... like rpf FOR the rpf movie...... in my defense red white and royal blue is getting a fucking series so i guess this is our #society now
read and wrote a truly embarrassing amount of not-quite-rpf for the spielberg shows band of brothers and the pacific. this one i don't regret at all and will in fact do it again. the reading not the writing. the writing was fucking harrowing. i still have a spiderman/deadpool AU for two characters from the pacific up on my ao3
made everyone in my high school musical theatre production of les mis read enjolras/grantaire fanfiction (many times, if memory serves)
read that entire fucking destiel vietnam war/HIV au and cried so much i nearly threw up and then sent it to a friend and made him cry and nearly throw up and then for years afterward any time the song 'twist and shout' came on i would start crying and tearing up like as if i personally had lost a lover to HIV
read the all for the game/foxhole court books while in a vulnerable state (just very addicted to drugs) and genuinely thought they were good and recommended them to people and wrote popular fanfiction for them
lied about liking star wars to get online kik he/they pussy from an internet friend who ended up in a real normal offline gay marriage with an internet friend of theirs. i gambled everything and fucking lost
moderated several glee roleplay servers ranging from mid (normal glee roleplay server but i accidentally catfished another member by playing multiple roles, this is one of my greatest shames) to bad (titanic crossover roleplay server. this understandably did not get anywhere but not because the idea wasn't fantastic, just because honestly nobody knew as much about titanic as i did and it pissed me off). i truly have never let any online community dictate my real life emotions as much as the glee tumblr rp fandom did
roleplayed and wrote LOTS of fanfiction for rvb. red versus fucking blue. the HALO show made by roosterteeth. yes i fought in those trenches too (i voluntarily signed up for those trenches). i am writing this post currently wrapped up in a fleece roosterteeth blanket. it is fuck ugly. it cost me ninety canadian dollars. i bought two of them and gave the other one to a straight cis girl that i was madly in love with. we also used to watch red vs blue together. my skin is peeling off

HI BB. 1, 2 & 13 for the ask meme
1. What fic of yours would you recommend to someone who had never read any of your work? (In other words, what do you think is the best introduction to your fics?)
Ooooh what a fascinating question.
For Batman these days I would probably give someone Have I Told You About Minnie? It's a fun fic, it introduces two important things about me: my Bruce voice/characterization, and my Stephanie Brown.
For RVB it still absolutely has to be It's a Comedy of Sorts. That thing is my goddamn RVB thesis statement, and one day I will go back to the BFF verse and finish the story I was telling. ONE DAY.
2. Go to your AO3 “Works” page, to the sidebar with all the filters, and click the drop-down arrow for “Additional Tags.” What are your top 3-5 most used tags? Do you think they accurately represent your writing habits?
Oh boy this will be fun.
PFFF YEAH THIS TRACKS. The next few include "Friendship" and "Grief/Mourning" which like... yeah. Also tracks. XD
13. Are there any tropes you used to like but don’t anymore?
*props chin on my fist* Hmm. Honestly I'm a pretty consistent creature, all told? I love time travel, alternate universes, fix-its, secret familial relations, angsty stuff that makes me laugh, and I've loved those things for a long time.
I will say generally these days I'm less into modern AUs than I used to be; but that's more to say that I'm pickier about them than I used to be. I still love stupidly specific AUs, but I'm over college (and especially high school) AUs... and I never did figure out what was the appeal of flower shop/tattoo parlor modern AUs... so yeah? Probably modern AUs? which is interesting.
I will say that these days I'm less likely to write parody fics, which I used to be known for in my high school days. It was a thing. I don't understand it, honestly, but hey.

#this fuckery is why david church is my fav au. it just gets ten times worse and i love unraveling the layers of this#epsilon and wash’s relationship is like onion…. makes you cry (via. @khimkito)
ok to this DAY i am so sad that rt didnt explore carwash!siblings because it was pretty prevalent in ~2015 fandom and it makes their relationship so much more insane and meaningful especially when you add epsilon into the mix!
like imagine your sister being better siblings with the ai version of your dad (who you both hate) that tried to kill itself inside your mind than she is with you...
but like the thing about wash and epsilon is that. they both know... everything about each other. epsilon exploded into all the memories of everything he's ever experienced (as the director, as alpha, and as himself) and in turn epsilon was implanted in wash's mind and therefore saw everything about him. so epsilon and wash should be two characters who know more about each other than any one else in the world, even though neither of them really want the other to
and the fact that wash is not actively hostile towards epsilon is honestly a plot hole like that bitch (affectionate) tried to kill him numerous times and wash is known for his anger issues (idk if y'all read the rvb book but it has a section where it talks abt wash literally nearly killing a teen for bulling him when he was in high school, it was described as him going... very overkill) and he has like all of the worst trauma from him, so for them to have barely any relationship, implying that wash doesn't care abt him very much is so insane.
ALSO! i almost forgot that the ai were chosen SPECIFICALLY for the freelancer that they were originally assigned to. like think abt how well delta & york and theta & north and even wyoming & omega got along, like the fact that that should could have been wash & epsilon (but somehow carolina and epsilon still work well together,,, almost like wash and carolina are very very similar,, almost like they're related,,,,) and the show just never addresses the fact that these two characters are supposed to be so well aligned that they could live in each others minds and find harmony and connection but instead epsilon nearly destroys wash and himself.
@fischiee @khimkito
lmao im making a separate post rather than tacking it onto the orig bc I don't wanna flood notifications every time I have big feelings about this but. yeah???
literally everything about those two make me so unwell. I'm never not thinking about it. bc the whole. not just having to second hand (or.. third? alpha then epsilon Then wash).. okay so third, I guess. anyways. being essentially subject to the same sort of torture and psychological abuse that alpha was via epsilon? and that on top of the directors original distress over allison? epsilon trying to kill himself inside his head! what tf does that even. bc they really only sort of handwave talk about it. what in the fuck does it actually Mean for an ai implanted in your brain to try and kill itself. and having to keep all of it a secret. for months if not years. the not being able to tell anyone?
(there's a weird sort of somber acknowledgment and tender empathy when it comes to wash and alpha too. bc wash Knows. he knows all of it?? even if alpha doesnt? the distress and insistence and confusion and loss that comes with tex not being at valhalla? 'I know all about her, church' even if church doesnt! even if He doesn't remember, wash does? what a burden that must be. that wash was the last of the team to actually see and speak to and be with church before he and all of the other fragments were erased? what sort of! and there's no justice in it! he gets his ass thrown into prison and then he has to work with whatever tf is left of maine in the Maybe hopes of getting his slate wiped clean.)
the odd fucking bizarre. wash and lina and epsilon and tucker (and caboose but he's a whole other.. im not awake enough to be able to talk about my feelings when it comes to caboose lmao)
but wash was the last person to see alpha. and then epsilon comes back and has no idea who tf tucker is bc caboose just didn't feel the need to. like? in a weird ass roundabout way, wash killed alpha and epsilon got cozy and familial with lina and both wash and tucker are left sorta stranded lmfao.
(and the behind the scenes lina&epsilon dynamic too. we really don't get to see the process of them becoming actually super fond and siblingy with one another but they are?? they went on a quest so lina could kill the director but nope leonard is just a lost defeated broken hearted wreck and that's her Father, at that point. pathetic and hopeless and so so tired. the grief and resignation and acceptance in leaving him to kill himself. epsilon and his bewildered righteous rage. they had that one chat about allison at the end of s10 but obviously there must have been more bc epsilon mentions allison a few times throughout chorus! do they talk about their feelings? does carolina ever get to properly acknowledge and process all her grief?)
like carolina is So Close to epsilon and that has to be so.. disconcerting at times for wash. bc he tried to kill himself while fucking! implanted into his brain! (and ive always figured that there's things wash must Know about carolina and all of her family drama. just as product of epsilon being alpha being leonard. yknow? but it'd also stand to assume that epsilon (and lina, maybe)) Know Things about wash. what sort of secrets do they keep for the sake of maintaining that illusion of privacy and boundaries.
I have stuff to say about tucker too but that might need to wait until after I have a sleep bc asdfghjkl.
#omg i am so sorry for the literal essay#i still have so many thoughts about what it means to have an ai kill itself in your head#and also the connections between everybody and their ais (maine..)#UGH and the way that wash has to walk alpha through the discovery that he is in fact an ai#when wash intimately knows the horrors that alpha will have to face if he remembers#i really hope in restoration that they go back to s9-10 and the sarcophagus#and explore what that plot was meant to be and how it interacts with ai#bc i have ALWAYS hated how that was just abandoned bc it meant so much to church's character#ESPECIALLY now that they're going into talking abt alpha and if it would even work#to bring all the parts that broke off from alpha and put them together to recreate him#ough#this show hurts my feelings so badly and i also love two (2) characters and they are agent washington and leonard church#(i love more characters than that i just have so many emotions abt them)#if this post isnt proof that i should not be allowed to start talking abt rvb than idk what is

RvB High School/Musical AU where...
AU where Sophomore Simmons is the new kid at school. His parents have divorced so he lives with his mother.
He’s the nerdy cousin of two emotionally constipated jocks (Wash & Carolina).
Terrible at sports, but has an amazing singing voice.
Becomes reluctant friends with Donut n Caboose and joins the Theatre club.
Starts pining for Senior Grif whose on the football team with Locus, North, Felix n Sarge
Wishes he get ‘Sempai to notice him’
*cue Donut singing Popular from Wicked while getting Simmons all dressed up for the Homecoming game’
Carolina jumps out window to get away from all the glitter. Wash just backs out the house slowly.
Toss in matchmaking shenanigans by everyone.
Grif’s falls head over heels after hearing Simmons sing ‘Dead Girl Walking’.
Locus being just done with his stupid friend.
“He’s got the voice of an angel but he’s so spicy! Like your Abuela’s salsa especial!”
#rvb#red vs blue#lol#agent carolina#agent washington#grimmons#dexter grif#franklin delano donut#micheal j caboose#locus#musicals#high school au#agent north dakota#felix#musical au#comedy

Red vs Blue but everything is done in Heelys
New armor models = new heelys
the helmets are those bike helmets you would get as a little kid that you'd cover in stickers
but sharkface has a motorcycle helmet.
instead of neural implants they have those cool kids' lunchboxes with their favorite characters
but the freelancers are Edgy and have the solid color ones
felix just has a full on backpack bc he's a Highschooler
one day he just pulls a knife out of it like dora in the live action trailer
the AIs are tamagotchis
there's no actual armor it's just clothes from Justice and Old Navy
red team wears justice and blue team is old navy
Kimball and Doyle are school presidents from rival schools
the sim troopers’ "war" is the cheese touch
#this is just a high school au but#rvb#red vs blue#partial credit to august aka beepis-boopis-blep-blop

I watched the new jumanji with my family the other day and it got me thinking, what if RVB was like Jumanji? And then at the end of the season they just get spit out back to the world.
I'm really feeling a good fic on this but I feel like I have 90 WIP's so maybe I should finish one of those first.
#rvb#red vs blue#fanfiction#jumanji#like imagine that they all didn't know each other before#the game evolved to be online somehow#and simmons pops out in his bedroom and his dad is still yelling at him#I'm really turn between making this a high school au or them being adults#because im not really a high school au fan#it just fit the movie#if you read the tags let me know
