#sorry for the wall of text. you activated the special interest trap

[transjess]

im so sorry they only existed in my head and in texts with my friend LMFAOOOO i can give you the basics though…. hopefully this readmore works, if it doesn’t SORRY

1) samjess au. jess is the killer, sam and dean at the survivors. jess’s power revolves of course around fire - she’s similar to the spirit in terms of being a spirit trapped and only sometimes-aware of what she’s doing. she walks around the map with a bloodstain staining the abdomen of her white nightgown and sobs and then bursts into flames to burn survivors :) in this au she recognises sam periodically and it shocks her out of her violent state but she can’t touch him without burning him no matter how hard she tries. sometimes he kisses her anyway and re-materialises at the campfire with fading burns across his entire face and the palms of his hands and the shape of her fiery arms around him. sometimes he sacrifices himself as penance for being the reason she died in the first place. also dean is there sorry this one isn’t about him LOL

2) set between s3 and 4, when dean is in hell. the entity takes him as he’s torturing other souls (demonic) and uses him as a killer. cas is taken as he’s diving into hell to save him + becomes a survivor. sam is taken as he’s drinking demon blood and also becomes a survivor. dean is visibly demonic and also flaming (haha) and uses a whip and hook on a chain as his weapons, and only sometimes snaps out of it when he sees sam and recognises his baby brother. cas’s wings are too burned to escape the realm + he doesn’t know sam and dean yet so he is also terrified and alone and practically graceless. i still have my first draft of some of their perks stuck on my wall so !

smite (castiel): you scrape together every piece of tattered Grace you have left and focus it outward into a powerful glow. once per trial (would change this now to requiring charges), if you are within 8m of a killer press the active ability button to cause them to become blinded with the same effect as if you had used a basic flashlight.

psychic gift (sam): you need not touch the world around you to alter it. when you stop repairing a generator that is less than 50% repaired, it cannot be damaged either through use of a perk or killer interaction until any survivor begins to repair it again. this perk has a cooldown of 60/50/40 seconds and only one generator at a time can be affected. the affected generator is highlighted to all survivors in yellow for the duration.

boyking (sam): blood makes you stronger. collect a token each time another survivor is injured for the first time up to a maximum of [x] tokens. (didn’t finish this one LOL)

angel radio (cas): you can no longer hear your brothers and sisters, but you listen hard nonetheless. every time a survivor causes a loud noise notification you can see their aura for 3/4/5 seconds if they are further than 12m from you.

i LOST the piece of paper with dean’s perk idea on it fml but ummm anyways. can you tell dbd is my special interest. these are from like 3 years ago so i can’t even remember any more sorry 😔 au 1 was for samjess angst and powerful imagery and au 2 was more “hey wouldn’t this be cool as shit” + going more into the actual game mechanics becuz i love making fake perks sooooo much i do it all the time. PEACE AND LOVE if you read all of this im giving you a big kiss. mwah. hope this is somewhat what you wanted op!!

Someone give me Jensen Ackles as a Dead by Daylight survivor for real

As many of any of your kids as you want for #1 >:3

01. What does your character’s name mean? Did you pick it for the symbolism, or did you just like the way it sounded?

For the sake of brevity I’ll just do the main 10 kids for this ask (i.e. the ones who actually have profiles up). That said, I am a huge etymology nerd and it’s something I think about a lot when coming up with most character names, especially in a universe like Pokémon where canon characters often have names which are symbolic in some way or relate back to their family/role/profession! You’ll probably notice more stuff like this on the kids’ profiles as I update them and (someday) add more characters.

Fern: From the plant of the same name, mirroring how Ash’s name also comes from a kind of tree. I always wanted her to have some sort of name relating back to nature to reflect the fact that she’s an outdoorsy kind of person, but I did cycle through a few early in this AU’s development before I found one that stuck.

Rory: Anglicised form of the Gaelic Ruairí/Ruairidh, meaning ‘red (headed) king.’ Similar to Fern, I just went for something with a similar meaning to his dad (Red)’s name - colour and/or nature related names are generally a theme among the Kanto protags’ kids. That said, Rory was originally conceptualised as a Red/Yellow kid, so if Red/Green had been endgame from the outset perhaps he’d have been named something else!

Olivia: From the Latin oliva, meaning ‘olive’ or ‘olive tree’. Along similar lines to Fern, I wanted her to have some sort of botanical name to reflect her love of plants. Olivia is one of the characters I really struggled to decide on a name for to begin with, so she went through quite a few name changes in the beginning (though otherwise she’s actually stayed pretty much the same personality/design wise, unlike some other kids).

Isabelle: This is one I actually did choose pretty much entirely based on aesthetics over meaning since I just think it’s a nice name! But in-universe, she’s named after Paul’s late mother Isabella (Bella for short), since they look very similar. Originally her name was Violet, but I changed it after fleshing out her family’s backstory more and also because there’s already a canon pokeani character with that name. I do still like the name Violet, so I decided fairly recently it can just be her middle name instead!

Lena: Her full name, Alena, is a Slavic form of ‘Helen’, which is thought to be derived from the Greek for either ‘torch’, ‘light’ (following the theme of the DPPt protags’ names, since she’s kind of the next gen Sinnoh protag) or ‘moon’ (linking back to the etymology of Cynthia’s name and her adopted hometown of Celestic). This is something I found out long after I named her, but it’s also a type of flowering plant native to Hawaii, which is a fun coincidence since I envision her becoming a professor someday, and plot-wise Alola is a place that’s important to her character development!

Osbert: Medieval name incorporating the Old English for ‘god’ and ‘bright’. This has literally nothing to do with his character development or symbolism and everything to do with the fact that I came across the name by chance in a book I was reading and was like “haha funny bert name to match Hilbert” since someone from Unova had to carry the dorky protag name torch. His beta name was Oleander (Ollie for short), but similar to Isabelle I just made that his middle name after it got retconned since I still have a soft spot for it.

Harper: From harp, since her mother Lyra’s name is derived from a similar musical instrument (lyre). Not much more to this one, although her name was originally Sylvia until I realised that sounded too much like Silver’s name 😅

Tristan: Most likely derived from the Celtic Drustan (‘noise’, ‘tumult’), and probably also influenced by the Old French triste (‘sad’). While I went with Tristan purely because I just like the name and thought it was the sort of thing Dawn and Paul would name their kid, the meaning behind it does actually suit him just by coincidence! As a sidenote, his middle name is Reginald, after his Uncle Reggie :’)

Maddie: ‘Madeleine’ is a French form of Magdalene, which has absolutely nothing to do with her as a character - this is just another one I thought was a nice name. However, there is a type of cake called a petite madeleine, which does fit with the fact that Maddie is exactly the sort of girl to spend all her money in high-end pastry shops.

Alyssa: After the alyssum flower, partly because I am not immune to the trap of wanting to name at least one Drew kid after a flower and also just because I always felt like it suited her! Hilariously, the etymology for the plant itself apparently comes from the Greek for ‘without rabies’ (reflecting its early medicinal use). Good for her.

Question from this list - feel free to send in more!

The Gamer Hero, Deku Chapter 24

A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in so long but first there were finals and then I kinda just needed to get back into the mindset to write this... My writing needs a bit of momentum sometimes.

By the way, I've decided to stop putting those accent things in Shoto and other people's names. I still haven't figured out how to do them using the keyboard so I have to find it somewhere every time I want to use it, which can get annoying... That, plus the fact that Shoto is probably going to be referred to by his first name a lot in the story soon? Yeah I hope you guys don't mind.

MattKennedy: Yeah, totally! The OFA Quirks that Izuku has unlocked so far are Fear, Skeletal, and Magnetize. Fear is an emitter Quirk that allows the user to raise or lower the level of a person's fear by making eye contact, Skeletal is a transformation Quirk that allows the user to turn any part of their body into a hardened, bone-like substance, and Magnetize is an emitter Quirk that allows the user to magnetize any object (though it explicitly does not work on living things or any body part attached to a living being). There are only three OFA Quirks that have yet to be shown, which are (SPOILER ALERT) Mending, Blackwhip, and Float. The only two of those that I didn't make up are Blackwhip and Float. Oh, and a fun fact: originally I thought of a Quirk that would let Izuku flatten people and things into any flat surface to kinda-sorta turn them into graffiti (actually I think it was the first original OFA user Quirk I thought of...) but decided against that because it would probably be a little overpowered if Izuku could just take out anyone he could push into a flat surface, even if there was a limitation on just slapping someone on the head so hard they become part of the ground, so I replaced it with Mending. Another fun fact, Fear causes Izuku's eyes to become slitted like a snake's.

xoxoxo

"This tournament has been so exciting so far!" Mic-sensei shouted.

"It's almost over, but I doubt there won't be some more... excitement," Aizawa-sensei added.

"That's right! This next battle will be Aoyama versus Bakugou! Who will win, folks? Will it be the radiant paladin, or will the red-hot warmage!"

"Start!" Midnight-sensei said.

"Let us have a glorious battle, mon ami!" Aoyama glittered.

Kacchan laughed. "Like it'd be anything else! Hit me with your best shot!"

"As you wish!" As with Tokoyami's fight, Aoyama opened by turning his sparkles into lasers. But while Kacchan dodged them his navel started to glow again. Aoyama struck a pose, and ribbons of light erupted from his stomach and enveloped him. The armor looked slightly thicker than what he had last time, but was unmistakably the spell he'd used last time.

"Let's see what you can do!" Kacchan shouted. He blasted himself at Aoyama, fists blazing. He slapped Aoyama in the armored chest and shot himself back with a small explosion. The hits caused Aoyama's armor to fluctuate and knocked him back, but aside from looking a little less vibrant the armor held. Kacchan grinned.

Aoyama smiled back at him and shot another wave of lasers. Kacchan tried to phase through the lasers with Fire Embodiment but was still blown back anyway. "Shall we get this battle started for real?" Aoyama asked as he struck a pose and used the distraction to fire up his Quirk again. His armor thickened and formed a stylish helmet, then the excess light flowed down his arms and formed into a rapier and buckler. Aoyama flourished his sword and shouted, "Taste the sting of my Silver Chariot! En garde!"

Kacchan's grin widened. "If that's how you're gonna play this..." he muttered. He struck an equally dramatic pose, almost literal fire in his eyes. A glow similar to Fire Aura engulfed his body, but it looked deeper somehow. I honed my senses on it and heard a ping.

A new skill has been created through special action! From extensive use of skills to understand magical effects, the skill 'Analyze' has been created!

"That'll be useful," I muttered. It created a text box with information that I already knew some of from using Eye for Magic. Which meant it would probably be made passive by Tactician, unlike Eye for Magic or Open Mind. Score. Now if only I could get an Open Mind version... I filed that away for later and looked at the Analyze text box.

Fire Ignition

An infusion of the fire element into one's body stronger than Fire Aura. Grants greater enhancement than Fire Aura, but damages the user.

Increases attack damage by 90%, increases movement speed by 45%, increases STR by 30%, user generates extreme heat.

150 MP used per minute.

User takes 150 HP of fire damage per minute.

Locks user into using exclusively the fire element.

Maybe he tried to brute force Fire Embodiment and got something somewhere in between? It looked like I'd be healing him after this fight...

The ground crackled and glowed from the sheer heat pouring out of Kacchan. "If that armor of yours is Silver Chariot... how 'bout we call what I'm doing Magician's Red?" Even I could barely follow it when he ran at Aoyama, leaving only a few burning footprints behind him. He was behind Aoyama before he could even react, and slammed his leg into him. Aoyama was sent flying, sparkles erupting from where Kacchan kicked him. Aoyama almost flew out of the arena from that one attack, but managed to force himself to slam into the ground using light magic, leaving a rainbowy afterimage of himself for a second. The ground cracked from the hit and Aoyama's armor looked a little worse for wear, but Aoyama just looked a little dazed. He used that new spell, Starlight Dash, to get up immediately.

"DIE!" Just in time, too. Aoyama just barely managed to Starlight Dash out of the way of Kacchan dashing at him. Kacchan stopped on a dime when he passed through Aoyama's afterimage, shattering the ground from his stomp, and shot himself at Aoyama again. It almost looked like he was hitting the ground so hard that he was being launched around by the recoil... Aoyama flinched and raised his shield. Kacchan slammed shoulder-first into the shield. The buckler flashed in an explosion of light, knocking Kacchan back. He almost landed outside of the arena but Fire Dashed back in just in time. "Not bad," Kacchan said. Then he lunged back at Aoyama. He let loose a flurry of almost-blows, just barely stopping himself from triggering Aoyama's shield trap whenever he maneuvered it in place with an explosion. Even though Kacchan never landed a hit on Aoyama, though, each explosion pushed him back a bit.

Kacchan yelled and slammed the ground in front of Aoyama. The ground exploded, knocking him into the air. Then Kacchan wiped his forehead and flicked his hand at Aoyama. A few small beads of fiery light flew off of his hand, landing on Aoyama's armor and shield. The mana-charged sweat droplets exploded, launching Aoyama back. Before he could touch the ground, Kacchan tackled him again. This time Aoyama didn't manage to save himself in time. He dropped outside of the arena and let his armor dissipate. Meanwhile, Kacchan collapsed to the ground. His skin was red, and he had steam rolling off of him. Luckily his pants were mostly fine, but his shirt was more ash than shirt...

"The match is over!" Midnight announced. "Aoyama is out of bounds! Bakugou is the winner! Now go to the nurse before your next match, Bakugou."

xoxoxo

I waited in the waiting room while Kacchan got chewed out by Shuzenji-sensei. Sonia flinched at something and sat down next to me.

"Hey, Izuku," she muttered out loud, even though she was still incorporeal. She liked doing that sometimes, probably because she was a sound elemental.

"What's up, Sonia?" I asked.

"You... might wanna be extra nice to Iida for a while..."

"Did you eavesdrop on a conversation?"

She frowned. "It's not... I hear everything within my range. That's just what it's like as a sound elemental. I used to not... process it, I guess, but now that I'm contracted I know what everything I hear means..."

"Oh." That was... interesting. I'd heard the elementals say things that implied they existed somehow outside of being summoned, but that was... interesting. "Do you... want to talk about it?"

Sonia shook her head. "Nah. It's actually a lot nicer than not really knowing anything that's going on. Besides, Granny's almost done yelling at Kacchan."

I got up. "Alright, then. Let's go."

xoxoxo

Kacchan grinned toothily at me. "So. It's you against me, huh?" He said over the roar of the crowd. "I figured it would be." He did his signature fist-punch. "Let's have a great fight, Deku!"

I smiled at him. "I'll make sure of it."

"IT'S THE FINAL FIGHT, FOLKS!" Mic-sensei shouted. "MIDORIYA VERSUS BAKUGOU! WON'T THIS BE A SHOW!?"

"Midoriya and Bakugou have shown themselves several times in the sports festival to be very talented and very powerful," Aizawa-sensei added. "Honestly, even I've been inspired by the crazy things the students have been doing..."

"Start!"

Kacchan jumped at me with a proto-Flash Step, boosting with his explosions. I reacted just in time to activate Elemental Embodiment, and Kacchan swung at air. It still hurt because he used fire magic, but I rematerialized behind him and Bass Blasted him. Naturally Kacchan didn't go anywhere near the edge from the sound blast, but he went a bit further than I thought he would. "LIMIT BREAK!" I shouted right off the bat. I swung my arm like I was throwing a bowling ball, outputting a lot of ice magic. "GLACIER PRISON!" Kacchan was encased in a giant wall of ice. Just as I thought, that was only a temporary stop. I could see him melting through the ice already. I Flash Stepped in front of the Glacier Prison and activated Ice Aura. I kicked the base of the ice, cleanly breaking it from the ground, and pushed it with a small use of OFA combined with ice magic. The entire Glacier Prison started sliding like in Kirby when you move into an enemy you used Ice Kirby on, if you were able to freeze boss-sized enemies with Ice Kirby.

Kacchan exploded out of the ice in a wave of steam and water before he went out, spraying half the arena in water as he hurtled straight towards me. I planted my feet and swung back to hit him. He threw a few strands of his hair at me for some reason, then cocked his own fist back. When I went to swing, my arm was stopped by something, letting Kacchan get a free hit on me. Whatever blocked my arm didn't stop me at all from getting knocked back. I had Dune raise a few rock walls for me to crash into. I got back up and... tried to Flash Step. Something around my chest this time stopped me. Luckily Damage Reduction meant that it didn't hurt me too much... I looked down at what was blocking me and saw several strands of long fibers. As I watched, a few more threads of silk wrapped around my body.

"You've probably noticed by now, huh?" Kacchan said. And then I thought to check his affinities again. Sonic 40 and Bio 30. "You can come out now, Leaf!"

The silk anchored to the rock wall I threw up grew and morphed into a green-haired boy in a green blanket cocoon that may or may not have been a giant leaf. He grumbled a bit and said, "Hey."

"The surprise is over, get him," Kacchan ordered. Thousands of strands of silk erupted from the bio elemental and wrapped around me and the surroundings. I was quickly wrapped up tight in a silk cocoon. I tried to use Lightning Embodiment to escape, but the webbing was resistant enough that that was a waste of time and MP. I struggled, trying to get some leeway, and took stock of the situation. I couldn't really move, the silk blocked my lightning, I could hear, or rather not hear, that there was enough material that it was soundproof, Halitus told me that it was airtight... I tried water and then bio. Water just left the cocoon wet, but I was able to merge into the web with bio. Leaf tried to keep me in the center, but I was, with a little difficulty, still able to phase through the silk. My hand got free of the web, so I slammed it into the ground and turned it into roots. I pulled the rest of my body out of the cocoon by turning into a small oak tree.

"OH WHAT THE HELL!" Kacchan shouted. "Alright, let's do a pincer attack on the tree!" Kacchan Fire Dashed at me from one side while Leaf lashed out with silk from the other. I burst into cactus needles, evading the webs and stabbing Kacchan a few times. I gathered my body back together, except for a few needles that Kacchan manage to incinerate, and reformed behind him. Kacchan turned around, murder in his eyes. "Leaf," he growled.

Leaf sighed and shot more silk at me, while Kacchan threw fireballs where Leaf wasn't covering. I smiled at Kacchan before turning into water. Leaf's string shots stabbed right through me, splashing even more water around. It didn't help that all of Kacchan's fireballs hit into what remained of the ice prison, nor that I had Rayne subtly spread all the water around. I "fell" into the puddles, then popped up behind Kacchan. I slapped him with a wave of water, soaking him, then switched to Lightning Embodiment.

"Ah, shi-" Kacchan started to say before getting punched by my lightning fist. He coped a lot better than the last time I used that combo, though, because after only a few hits my hand hit his wooden face with a lot less impact. Kacchan smirked and transformed his arm into a bunch of vines, which he wrapped around me. I changed back to normal and almost immediately turned to air to get away. Kacchan cursed as I rematerialized on the far side of the arena from him. He pointed at me, a fire lit on the tip of his finger. I grinned, activated Eye For Magic, and mirrored Kacchan perfectly, copying the magic he was putting into it almost perfectly. He shot the fire bullet at me, which I copied. Then he blinked and summoned more fireballs. I summoned more fireballs almost immediately. With my INT it was hopefully quick enough to look simultaneous. We threw a few more fireballs at each other before Kacchan realized that that was getting him nowhere.

"You're not finishing me off with a stupid copycat game, Deku!" Kacchan dashed at me using Fire Ignition. I managed to mimic it with One For All, but fumbled with the explosion to the face that followed it. My head shattered. Conveniently it happened to be made out of stone and I was able to piece it back together. "Damn Elemental Embodiment..." Kacchan blasted me a few more times. This time, however, I blocked the explosions with a Mana Shield, then hit back with a Steam Blast. Kacchan recovered with Fire Dash, then started flying upward. "Come and get me, Deku!"

I grinned, forming Halcyon Wing to fly after him. Really, it was bound to happen at some point. I flew after him, just barely lagging behind him. I flapped my wings, shooting a few feathers at him. Thanks to Halcyon Wing's secondary effect his flight spell also faltered for a moment, letting me catch up and kick him toward the boundary. He blasted himself back up and threw two blades of heat at my wings. I scattered my wings into feathers long enough for the blades to miss most of the feathers, then reconstituted my wings with most of the rest of the feathers. I threw the few that I left out at him and followed up with a small lightning bolt. Kacchan dodged the feathers, but I curved my lightning to strike him in the shoulder. It wasn't enough to do any major harm, but he growled and clutched his arm from the shock. I grinned and fired an Ice Beam at his hand, which was clutching his arm. I also iced that lightning wound for him while I was at it.

"DEKU YOU FUCKER!" Kacchan shouted as he plummeted. He caught himself with Fire Dash, supplemented with Fire Ignition, and rammed straight at me. The fire melted the ice as well. I flapped my wings, which was now no longer enough to screw up Kacchan's Fire Dash, and ascended fast enough that I hoped I would dodge him. It didn't work. "DIE!" Kacchan screamed as he punched me in the face. I shot all my feathers at Kacchan while I was still ascending, then turned to air. I floated down while Kacchan dodged all the feathers, then turned back when I was under him. Ping. I stopped falling before I even used a flight spell.

"Really?" I muttered to myself. "I get a flying Quirk now?" I shrugged it off and reached for the source of my new Quirk, Float. "Hey Kacchan!" I shouted. He pivoted in midair to face me. "Limit Break: Flurry of Blades!" A spear appeared in my left hand and a kunai in my right, both glowing brighter than my normal level 98 Bound Blades. I gave the spear Electric Aura and the kunai Wind Aura, then threw both of them at Kacchan. He dodged them both and shot an explosion off at the spear, but I'd already created my next two weapons, a flaming flamberge and a steam rapier. Bound Blade's interaction with One For All was interesting. Trying to supercharge a single weapon would either make it explode or cause it to become gigantic. Both of those could be useful in the right circumstances, especially as a surprise, but it was a lot better to just generally enhance the skill itself. This made the weapons slightly stronger and gave me a sort of connection to them, but there was an even bigger advantage to it.

Namely the fact that I could make a theoretically infinite amount of weapons, and give them their own individual Elemental Weaponry. Within a few seconds, I'd thrown a little over a hundred weapons at Kacchan. He managed to dodge most of them, though. "What, are you just gonna keep throwing weapons at me, Deku?" he asked. "That's not gonna work!"

I grinned and looked at the mass of floating weapons above Kacchan that I managed to keep him from noticing just by keeping him focused on dodging. "You'd think that..." I sent all the weapons at him at once. Kacchan noticed before any of them actually hit him, thankfully, and started dodging and exploding them again with more than a few curses. While he was preoccupied, I started charging up a large ball of ice magic. When he was most of the way done with my storm of weapons, I threw the swirling ball of frigid energy at him. "Arctic Storm!" I shouted when it hit him, engulfing him in a miniature blizzard. He was tossed out the side, steaming and covered in frost, and I had Halitus make an air cushion to keep him from hitting the ground too hard.

"Bakugou is out of bounds! Midoriya wins!"

I floated down next to Kacchan, landing lightly. "You suck," he told me with a grin wide enough that I had the strangest feeling he wasn't being sincere. I offered him my hand, which he grabbed. "Still, that was a damn good fight," he said as I helped him up.

"C'mon, let's get you patched up so you can accept your silver medal," I said.

He snorted and lightly hit me. "Fuck you, asshole."

"Love you too."
