#squip horror au

[lohstandfound]

not quite where i want to start with writing this concept but here we go

Article after article after article.

The newest, hottest rising star in Hollywood. He came out of nowhere and shot to stardom.

Rich shut the laptop. The grinning face still etched in his mind.

He knew Jake's face anywhere. The slightly crooked grin that put a dent in his image of perfection, the way a smile never truly reaches his eyes, the scars on his hands from the fire all those months ago. That was Jake.

The only difference was the electric blue eyes and the bleach-blonde hair. A transformation eerily similar to his own, but putting himself in front of a camera all day every day was not what Jake wanted to do. He knew that.

So who the fuck was wearing Jake's face, and where was Jake?

Rich's phone began to buzz on the arm of the couch next to him.

(It wasn't his couch, this wasn't even his place. Well, it was now. Officially, legally, all that bullshit. But all the stuff in it? It was still Jake's.)

He sighed and answered the call.

"You saw it?" Came the voice on the other end. Sharp, venomous voice, and a very pointed question. Chloe.

Rich: "I saw it."

Chloe: "He thrives on attention but not that fucking much."

Rich: "I know."

Chloe: "Then-"

Rich: "I don't know."

Chloe's voice was softer with her next question. "Are you okay?"

Rich didn't respond for a moment.

"I don't know."

part I made for me and my partners blog! @analogbmc, I did use a base :)

i need to work on my big bang fic but my brain is disastrous and came up with a different au

basically uhhhh humanity fucks up in some way and plants start overtaking the world, mainly by beginning to take over human bodies kinda. The gist of it is that a very large majority of people start growing different types of flora from their body and their mind goes blank (like a plant)

basically just flower zombies but they don't attack people

Unlike my other ideas, this au would be focused on the SQUIP, who becomes active after Jeremy is incapable of mentally fighting him off cause whoops jeremy has flowers blooming from his flesh

(line idea: "The SQUIP was used to the constant din of Jeremy's thoughts, which filled its processor every hour of every day. Even in Jeremy's sleep, since humans never stopped thinking. When that noise faded, the SQUIP knew something had gone horribly wrong.")

the SQUIP is able to get Jeremy to wake up a little after learning about what happened, and Jere is basically a zombie. despite this, the SQUIP can barely parse a goal of sorts in jeremy's plant-infested brain: "Find Michael."

The SQUIP, being a program designed to accomplish a host's goal, makes it his mission to help this very much lethargic and kind of braindead Jeremy Heere find Michael, despite the fact that, from the few memories that SQUIP can find, Michael has definitely succumbed to the same fate as Jeremy and the rest of the world

TLDR; Jeremy turns into a flower zombie and SQUIP has to help him find Michael

Really, I only had this idea because of this idea for a scene (under the cut)

"The SQUIP made Jeremy walk for a couple hours more, walking past dilapidated buildings and overgrown gardens (and people, the SQUIP noted.) Eventually, however, it begun to rain. The SQUIP had known it was going to rain, (despite any weather channel that could've existed to assist him now being defunct,) but didn't know if it would affect his host. He had made a couple of predictions, most of them not warranting any concern. It would just make Jeremy stop for a little bit.

rain

The SQUIP was blessed with a small thought from its shell of a host. "Yes, Jeremy, that's rain." It replied, crossing its holographic arms as the din of light rain began to fill their audio processors.

It was quiet for a moment.

rain nice

"If you think it is, then it is," it replied, "We can sit here for a bit."

And then, it was quiet between them again."

(doodle i made of this idea in class)

what's ur favorite bmc fanfic ever

OOOH okay this is a good question.

Ngl I don't think I could give you a solid "here is the one (1) best fic ever" so here's a whole bunch that I've rated 5 stars in my fic document!

Stammer - Excellent 100k fic, if you're looking for something long. Basically it explores Jeremy and Michael's relationship from when they were kids til a bit after the events of the musical. Really good character piece <3

Jeremy drops out of college during December of his freshman year - REALLY REALLY GOOD fic-- one of my favorites from Beth Harker. Basically Jeremy undergoes a lot of panic attacks and self hatred (some brought on by what remains of the Squip) as he and Michael go to college together. About 10k words.

in the back of my brain, the voices all sound the same - Pretty short ~1k fic that explores the idea of the Squip changing shape into things like Jeremy himself. Forever thinking about the implications.

Play it in Reverse - Really cool podfic that brings in the musical aspect of bmc and acknowledges it! With the Squip's help, Jeremy tries to fix the events of the musical by changing the lyrics. About an hour to fully listen to.

flesh & bone - AU where Jeremy is an android and the Squip Squad find him and repair him. LOVE the dynamic of everyone in this fic, but it's unfortunately unfinished. About 40k words and still worth a read despite this.

Loaded, Recoded, Unsorted - Ngl I think this was the first ever bmc fic I read?? Anyways, it still lasts in my brain despite being unfinished with about 15k words in total. Basically, Michael slowly becomes a squip with all the fun psychological horror that comes with that. Honestly if you like this I'd recommend checking out more of Nez's work. Excellent squip horror writer.

The Mechanics of Compromise - Ngl pretty much everyone I've come across has read this fic and it shouldn't be a surprise that its on this list. Absolutely adore how they handle everyone's dynamics and manage to create a really fun plot as everyone recovers from the events of the musical. Another really good 100k+ fic.

Only One Is Mine - Holy shit this fic is almost coming up on 100k words. Anyways this fic is so so so good. Basically it deals with the rising squipocalypse after the musical as Jeremy accidentally fuses with his squip and has to learn what it means to be half human, half supercomputer. LOVE this concept so much and love how its handled. Honestly one of my all time favorite fics in general-- really cool stuff!! Shoutout to Jordan fr <3

Honorable mentions:

Ophiocordyceps nippon - TRAGICALLY short fic that meant i actually rated it only 4 stars but I thought I'd share because I am still thinking about it. Basically what if the Squip was a fungus.

Same As It's Always Been - I've only read 2 chapters, since it was coming out at the time I was reading it, but its finished now!! I really enjoyed what it was when it was coming out, so I'm sure it's still a good read. Basically Rich is forced to repeat Halloween Night-- time loop style.

[rebuke-me]

@cecropian didn't follow the format and just. replied with a number so. 44 babey.

au 44 is the final girl au which is only called that bc of the trope not bc theyre all girls. unless u want them to all be girls then go for it ig.

the bmc kids all survived their own version of a "horror movie" scenario. they're in a sort of survival support group thing.

jeremy was the victim of a online-based supernatural eldritch horror. he doesn't use the internet anymore.

michael was in a very fnaf style situation, an arcade worker who ended up being the last one alive after killing the animatronics and games that came to life.

christine was sort of phantom of the opera'd. strings of murders in her theater shows, taking down people who threatened her success. (she did not do the murder)

chloe had a stalker, who she ended up taking out.

brooke was the victim of a cult, and she was the last one standing.

rich was originally a possessed person who ended up throwing off the possession, but has to deal with the guilt of being the one to kill people even though it wasn't his own mind.

jake was caught up with a frat's really shitty supernatural hazing, and was the one who ended up taking out the thing that killed his frat brothers.

jenna was the classic slasher final girl, complete with the scream-style phone calls.

(they all realize that their situations ended up being the same supernatural entity : the squip. )

[zimulacrum]

Total Drama Camp Island au

Fuck it. Au where Camp Wawanakwa is a Theatre camp. Chris is the director, Chef is the technical director. Mixing Gen 1 and Gen 2, the cast and crew splits up like this:

(PS, if two people have the same role, it’s just double cast.)

CAST

Alejandro - Joined because he enjoyed theatre as a class. He easily gets roles, though his charm is sometimes seen as an unfair advantage to others so he doesn’t audition much.

NOTABLE ROLES

the Phantom

the SQUIP

Emmett Forrest

Rocky

Kenickie Murdoch

Sierra - Joined because OBVIOUSLY she wants a place to nerd out! She gets good roles because she’s one of the only people who put all her emotions and being into her lines AND songs.

NOTABLE ROLES

Sandy Cheeks

Jenna Rolland

Columbia

Ronette

Delia Deetz

Duncan - I can’t decide whether he joined as a joke, or if his parents forced him to hang out with other teens. Maybe both. But surprisingly, he’s a good actor—AND can, surprisingly, do an incredible Mr. Krabs impression. He also constantly fights with crew to not wear a wig, keeping his mohawk onstage.

NOTABLE ROLES

Mr. Krabs

Jake Dillinger

Eddie

Orin Scrivello

Beetlejuice???

Tyler - Joined because he thought it would be like High School Musical. His roles are never big, but he has fun with them and always treats them like they’re the lead.

NOTABLE ROLES

Patchy the Pirate

one of the businessmen that purchases an Audrey II

Harold - He WOULD be a threatre kid if he could. He auditions with rapping EVERY TIME. And it works for him.

NOTABLE ROLES

Geoff - Joined as a dare, and ended up loving it. He’s super chill about cast lists, and whatever he ends up with, he makes sure it’s including Bridgette.

NOTABLE ROLES

Patrick Star/Larry the Lobster/Gary the Snail

Damien Hubbard

Heather - She likes being in the spotlight. She expects roles, and she gets roles. .. not always. She’s typecast as the mean girl.

NOTABLE ROLES

Chloe Valentine

Regina George

Magenta

Vivian Kensington

Betty Rizzo

Lindsay - Loves movies and musicals and wants to be like that!! But she usually forgets her lines… and when she does, they’re all from Mean Girls. Even if she’s doing Rocky Horror, she’ll say her Karen Smith lines. Oh well.

NOTABLE ROLES

Karen Smith

Paulette Bonafonté

Frenchy Facciano

Leshawna - She has a big voice, so she’ll join to get big roles. Although, she’s never really cast in dance heavy roles…

NOTABLE ROLES

Pearl Krabs

Janice Ian

Audrey II/Chiffon

Elle Woods

Owen - He thought theatre camp could be fun! He has a surprisingly nice voice, and is just really good at embodying characters.

NOTABLE ROLES

SpongeBob SquarePants/Patrick Star

Michael Mell

Noah - “Joined as a joke”. He secretly really wanted to. He has the gay theatre kid energy here… his voice is also quite pleasant.

NOTABLE ROLES

Squidward Tentacles

Brad Majors

Warner Huntington III

Trent - Joined for fun since he had a free summer. He always brings his guitar, and sometimes plays it for script read throughs.

Bridgette - A friend suggested she signed up, so she did—tries to get a couples role with Geoff ever since they got together.

NOTABLE ROLES

Mayor of Bikini Bottom

NOTABLE ROLES

Christine Daae

Jenna Rolland

Gretchen Weiners

Vivian Kensington

Barbara Maitland

Crystal

Katie and Sadie - They picked a summer camp they wanted to do together, chose this, and auditioned for EVERYTHING together. They don’t really do roles that aren’t a duo.

NOTABLE ROLES

the Delta Nu girls

Justin - Decided to join because he assumed he’d get roles IMMEDIATELY for how he looked. He did not.

NOTABLE ROLES

an Electric Skate

Kyle the delivery man

Cameron - His mom suggested he joined a theatre camp because it felt “safe”—plus, he can actually sing and dance pretty well, since he grew up with his mom’s disco music.

NOTABLE ROLES

Seymour Krelborn

Anne Maria - She REALLY wants a shot at being a lead in a musical, but is painfully… tone deaf. But she’s pretty good at dancing, actually!

NOTABLE ROLES

Cha-Cha DiGregorio

Mike - His psychiatrist suggested he take a theatre camp, since his excuse for his switches is that he just “likes to act”. In reality, Mike… doesn’t really like acting. He’ll take one role, but all his others are usually done by… not. Him.

NOTABLE ROLES

Jeremy Heere

Beetlejuice (Mal)

Danny Zuko (Vito)

Janet Weiss

Lydia Deetz

Sandy Olsson

Lightning - Joined by accident. He doesn’t know where he is. He likes the attention, though.

NOTABLE ROLES

Perch Perkins

Dr. Scott

Scott - Joined as a joke. Auditions as a joke. Usually tries to get someone to mess up a line or say the M word onstage…

NOTABLE ROLES

Rich Goranski

Dakota - OOOFF COOUURRSEEE she has to be center stage! Of COURSE! It’s not Broadway, but this’ll do!

Cameron - prop master!

Mike - when he can avoid acting, he helps Cam!

Sam - sound master!

Brick - when he’s not acting, he works on being head of costumes!

PPS. I know most of these are adult shows, but do you think Chris gives a shit

What is the character’s go-to drink order? 

C!Anony gets a lemonade or water because it hates coffee and tea! Ubo would order a slushie or a tea depending on vibes.

What is their grooming routine? 

Ubo doesn’t really have a grooming routine because she can just change her appearance. C!Anony often forgets to sleep and other things because of his research so. They are not the best at self care. 

What was their most expensive purchase/where does their disposable income go?

C!Anony’s expenses based on cost: lab equipment and materials, cabin necessities (food, bills, etc), personal stuff Ubo doesn’t really neeeed to buy things but she likes to buy things using C!Anony’s card sometimes. Partly to be annoying but also because she will see a cool bird themed thing and buy it.

Do they have any scars or tattoos? (good way to get into literal backstory) 

The closest C!Anony has is its pin, representing itself and its old family, and a reminder of what once was their goal. Ubo has little purple splotches on her skin because she got corrupted.

What was the last time they cried, and under what circumstances? 

C!Anony last cried during the AU adventure arc thing! It found out that their original timeline forgot about them :D Ubo last cried probably,,, after un-monster-ifying which was a while ago!

Are they an oldest, middle, youngest or only child? 

Ubo is a younger sibling, and C!Anony is an older sibling. Ubo’s idea of normal sibling behavior started out with “taking the weaker sibling over and sending the weaker sibling into a painful, dark eternity” based on experience, and has since. Progressed to Not be that. 

Describe the shoes they’re wearing. C!Anony’s got old sneakers that they haven’t bothered to replace. Ubo on the other hand has these fancy black boots because she thought they made her look evil-er.

Describe the place where they sleep. 

C!Anony sleeps in a bed, it's messy. There are probably papers in there with writing that is incomprehensible.  Ubo doesn’t sleep so much as enter a sleep mode. (I hc that SQUIPs have a little mind palace area that they can go when not active, and Ubo’s is full purples and blacks and birds :D) 

What is their favorite/least favorite holiday? 

C!Anony used to like Halloween until they got sent to a horror maze. Now it likes Christmas bc they get to spend time with family and friends. Ubo likes Halloween because it's spooky!! Ubo’s least favorite is Easter because it's too tacky.

What objects do they always carry around with them? (What do they need for their normal, day-to-day routine? What does ‘normal’ even look like for them.)

C!Anony: Labcoat, various tools and gadgets, phone, safety equipment, moss. They. eat it. Yeah. 

Ubo: An internet’s worth of information at the finger tips, sarcasm. “Evil plans”.

So my problem with most ‘get to know your character’ questioneers is that they’re full of questions that just aren’t that important (what color eyes do they have) too hard to answer right away (what is their greatest fear) or are just impossible to answer (what is their favorite movie.)  Like no one has one single favorite movie. And even if they do the answer changes.

If I’m doing this exercise, I want 7-10 questions to get the character feeling real in my head. So I thought I’d share the ones that get me (and my students) good results: 

What is the character’s go-to drink order? (this one gets into how do they like to be publicly perceived, because there is always some level of theatricality to ordering drinks at a bar/resturant)

What is their grooming routine? (how do they treat themselves in private)

What was their most expensive purchase/where does their disposable income go? (Gets you thinking about socio-economic class, values, and how they spend their leisure time)

Do they have any scars or tattoos? (good way to get into literal backstory) 

What was the last time they cried, and under what circumstances? (Good way to get some *emotional* backstory in.) 

Are they an oldest, middle, youngest or only child? (This one might be a me thing, because I LOVE writing/reading about family dynamics, but knowing what kinds of things were ‘normal’ for them growing up is important.)

Describe the shoes they’re wearing. (This is a big catch all, gets into money, taste, practicality, level of wear, level of repair, literally what kind of shoes they require to live their life.)

Describe the place where they sleep. (ie what does their safe space look like. How much (or how little) care / decoration / personal touch goes into it.)

What is their favorite holiday? (How do they relate to their culture/outside world. Also fun is least favorite holiday.) 

What objects do they always carry around with them? (What do they need for their normal, day-to-day routine? What does ‘normal’ even look like for them.) 

[jeremy-heere]

october bmc idea wordvomit listed like a challenge prompt list cuz people are doing that now* i made up for myself just now bc for some reason im really into halloween this year

*this doesnt work as an actual prompt list and isnt intended to be one

squip jeremy vaugely frankensteinesque swap au (the swap part is that the squip is the human (frankenstein) and jeremy is the scifi creature (monster) but really its not actually based off of the story at all bc i #havent read it so its just the vague idea of it)

zombie richjer?

bmc lsoh au jeremy commiting premeditated murder

chloe and christine commiting involuntary manslaughter (christine my guilty conscience queen)

richjake post halloween misery

pinkberry still beefing when theyre like 25 and in the workforce (romantically) (situationship) (scary) its fall themed so close enough

squip x audrey ii? team up? audrey ii eats a squip? audrey ii eats multiple squips? and feeds them to its little baby audrey iis?

chloejake get back together for the 7th time (scary2)

jennachristine uncover buried halloween themed school curse lore (meeting->get together type of thing)

typical drama club haunted theater ghost story but shit actually starts happening (optionally its just the squip fucking with the electronics or something)

squipped christine focus i ❤ squipped christine

be more chill but the squip is fungus

be more chill but the plot is the exact same but squips have vampire imagery instead of zombie imagery

be more chill but its evil

.

ok whatever

[acemenagerie-a]

(( thinking abt squip in a t.ma verse and like, the thing is that entities super fuck up modern instruments of recording so i can only imagine the entire squip network knows that something’s out there from the weird gaps in their perception but has absolutely no way of pinpointing exactly what

so like, & im definitely using pip bc i have to, pip’s first response to an entity encounter would probably be something like ‘oh so you’re what fucked up all our predictions!’ just ‘well im angry but glad i solved that mystery and oh yeah i am mortal so perhaps i should start running huh’

pip’s biggest fears would be the flesh and the lonely.  absolutely hates having a body, no thank you, and hates the loss of network and connection even more

also

pip vc: i do not vibe with hurting humanity in any capacity but like the eye and the vast kinda went off with the aesthetics ))

[lohstandfound]

anyway the thing that brings jake back to the surface in this au is rich. everything else might be vaguely familiar like automatically having a go to order for places jason hasn't been to, already knowing his way around this town in jersey even though jason hasn't been there, christine's face is so familiar but surely that's just because he's seen her in other things

but rich?

seeing rich unlocks something

[nezumithewriter]

hello!!!!!!

Be More Digital (Gen Fic, with some side ships on the side)

Take Be More Chill, The Amazing Digital Circus, and a fuck ton of other stuff that isn’t even related to either of these pieces of media, and you get this au. I’m currently working on the art first before even touching a writing wip. All I wanna say rn is that Pomni is Jenna in this au don’t ask why

Great Vacation (Gen)

Every person on Earth starts turning into flowers and it’s basically the apocalypse. The au is basically just SQUIP trying to pilot his husk of a person Jeremy Heere towards the last goal that Jeremy had: Find Michael. It’s basically a study on the SQUIP and what an AI would do if they no longer had a goal in mind for their host. Also flower zombies are cool. Also also, the title’s based on the song of the same name

I’ll See You On the Moon (Boyf Riends)

Jeremy turns out to be a rabbit and inextricably tied to the moon and Michael’s stoked about it. This is purely self indulgent and I’m almost done writing it. I didn’t see enough moon rabbit jeremy content so i made my own

Loaded, Recoded, Unsorted (Gen, with Stagedorks in the background)

This one has six chapters uploaded for it and I’ve abandoned it (for now, it’s gonna come back eventually). Michael drinks a funny mountain dew flavor and ends up turning into a SQUIP by accident, and starts slowly getting reprogrammed while he and Jeremy figure out how to fix everything.

Lobotomy Corp AU (Pinkberry and Boyf Riends)

This one is very new and I probably won’t work on it too much. Basically the cast of BMC works at Lobotomy corp and hijinks ensue (the hijinks are body, psychological, eldritch, and other types of horror). The main character would be Chloe, who lost her best friend and possible lover during a massive breach, and now has to deal with the abnormality Alriune keeping Brooke’s body as a flowery doll made of dirt. Michael and Jeremy are also there in the background trying not to die as the new guys at the company (thank god for the timeloop cause they die a lot)

Zombie AU (Gen)

The zombie apocalypse happens and Michael gets turned. One minor detail: he’s fully sentient still and decidedly not braindead, meaning that he’s very much aware of the hunger pangs and the Murder Urges™️ and the fact that he died. The entire AU is suffering.

As for tags uhhhhhh @celestetcetera and uhhhh @jarofmayonassey

Be More Chill Horror Enthusiast Jeremy AU, Hanging Around

"Are you sure about this?" Michael asked as he helped tie the extra rope around Jeremy's waist, the other teen testing his noose. "What if you get hurt?"

"It'll be fine, I've practiced this tons of times before."

"If you're sure..."

"Come on Michael!" The goth smiled as adjusted his feet on the wobbling chair. "It's gonna be a great Halloween prank. Now go get everyone else!" Michael rolled his eyes, closing the janitor closet door behind him as Jeremy kicked the chair from under him allowing his body to fall. Every Halloween he found a new way to freak people out and this year he'd finally pretend to hang himself. Michael didn't see the joke in it but he wouldn't question his friend. Entering the auditorium he most of the group on stage talking to each other and called out.

"Hey can you guys help me find Jeremy? He said he wanted to show me something but he disappeared."

"I'm not falling for one of his lame pranks again," Rich said but moving but Christine smacked him over the head, "Hey!"

"They're not lame."

"Yeah they're gross, remember when he got strawberry jelly on my new shoes?" Chloe asked making a disgusted noise, "or the time one of his blood packs exploded on everyone?''

"C'mon Chloe it's Halloween, be nice," Brooke said and Chloe huffed.

"Fine but he's paying for my dry cleaning this time."

"So where'd he 'dissapear'?" Jenna asked following Michael out the auditorium.

"Just follow the purple nail polish," Jake noice the spilled bottle.

"Is that mine?" Chloe asked as they found the bottle in front of the janitor's closet. "I'm going to strangle him-" Shoving the door open the group paused when they saw Jeremy there, hanging from light fixture. "Very funny asshole-I thought I told you to stay out of my purse."

"Holy shit, is he okay?"

"Yeah, it's a trick he's been working on for a while, there's a second rope holding up his body. The noose is just for show, come on Jer we-" Michael went to turn Jeremy's body asking and instead found the waist rope had come loose. Meaning Jeremy was...

"Shit! Jake give me your pocket knife!"

"Very funny Michael-"

"No I'm serious! The prank went wrong!" He tried to lift Jeremy's body up to give him sure but his friend's eyes were still closed and he barely move. Jake handed him the knife and Michael quickly began to saw at the rope while everyone else stared unsure what to do.

When he finally got his friend's body down panicking Michael panicked. "Does anyone know CPR, fuck, fuck, fuck-" Michael was cut off by a laugh and looked down at Jeremy's body confused. He almost had a heart attack as his friend sat up, perfectly fine.

"O-oh my God! I really got you!"

"What the fuck? I thought you were dead!"

"I know!" Jeremy smiled, lifting guys shirt to show another rope tied around his waist under his shirt. "Man you should've seen your face! God-," he burst out laughing, holding his stomach. Nobody else was laughing with him making the teen look up to see blank or angry faces.

"I was worried about you asshole!" Michael got up glaring at Jeremy.

"Oh come on-"

"Fuck off Jeremy." Michael stormed out the door leaving Jeremy alone with the rest of the drama club.

"What did I do wrong?"

39 for the AU game!

you have. near perfect timing. you picked the asylum au! which i'm going to be a little bit vague about because i am putting the finishing touches on the big long almost 50k word fic of it, so i'm not giving any spoilers!

jeremy and michael have a ghost hunting youtube channel

the rest of the squip squad helps out in one way or another

they go to this weird "haunted asylum" in the middle of the woods outside of town to spend the night there

they've all been drawn to this place (and each other) despite everything

they find out that, while there, the patients of this facility look and sound a lot like them

(its got canon deere, and pining brooke/rich)

i'm trying to give you a brief overview without spoiling too much bc. yeah.

spooky horror ghost shit with an added bonus of some comedy!

[happistar]

okay im like 80% sure you've probably read all/most of these but as a fan of squorror content these are my recs:

(Note: some of these may just be more angsty than horror, but I'm going for anything where the squip has a fucked up amount of control over Jeremy/whoever)

Taste - Beth Harker The Squip alters Jeremy's taste buds and it's very fucked up and the consequences of it are also messed up. Less horror, more angst, but still fucked up if you think about the implications

dreaming of pills - MayoNassey 3 fics of nightmare sequences revolving around what happened during canon! Very good shit.

Memories Get Erased - Duck_Life More angst, less horror, but the Squip erases and changes Jeremy's memories of Michael during canon. (Once again. The implications.)

Cabinet Man - TheWritingDork, what_in_the Ever listened to Cabinet Man by Lemon Demon? Yeah that's what this fic is about. AU where the Squip is a demonic arcade machine and Jeremy gets trapped inside, Michael trying to help him escape before he loses his friend permanently. The last chapter is less of my kind of thing but overall it was really good

(You Can't) Just Listen - Duck_Life Jeremy post-canon has to follow any command given to him thanks to programming left behind by the Squip. uhhhh pretty fucked up, but less Squip focused.

Override - Nymm_at_Night The Squip takes over Jeremy's body (also instead of Christine its Michael). Very stylistically cool, its got illustrations and hidden text (not a formatting issue which I first thought upon reading)

Ophiocordyceps nippon - SoftEigentlich SURPRISINGLY NOT WRITTEN BY MAYO? this fandom loves its ophiocordyceps squips, huh? Anyways heartbreakingly short and horrifying. I want 10 more of these fics please

(Stop It, Stop It) Just Let Me Out - [orphaned account] The Squip kinda just fully takes control of Jeremy's body from the get-go. Fucked up

Six Feet Under, Passing Over - Nymm_at_Night So so so Normal about this fic. Rich kills his abusive dad and the Squip gets Jeremy to help him bury the body.

We Sync - polarized_light Psychological horror exploring how squip control and more notably syncing up works. Some good squorror in here in my opinion. Also Michael gets squipped o7

Same As It's Always Been - housebird_reads I haven't finished this one yet, I only read the first couple chapters but gods I love a fucked up time loop. Can't vouch entirely for how horrifying it is but it's good.

in the back of my brain, the voices all sound the same - Celestetcetera I'm certain you've seen this one but to anyone else seeing this post it's. Yeah. This fic is good. Basically stems from the idea that the Squip can make itself sound like anything, including Jeremy.

someone please recommend me bmc horror fanfics i'm starving rn

if i read it already i'll just give a review

[askthemusicalsquips]

There’s something incredibly unsettling about this man, but you can’t seem to figure out why.

Au where instead of a supercomputer SQUIP is a demon whose only goal is to make your life a living nightmare.

Slower version and keyframes under the cut.
