Wiztober Day 7: Deprivation (Aka what's a necromancer mortician to do, trapped in a coffin?)

[voxofthevoid]

please save my crops and spill about 1) zombie apocalypse 2) any fun trivia about Phichit in ML that you didn't share? 3) where's Makka in the zombie apocalypse. Is Makka also a zombie? 4) headcanon for yoi characters in hogwarts houses? especially some of the background characters? *is curious*

Of course you’d choose to focus on the angst trains, Kaja. This is why we’re friends sworn enemies.

01. Zombies and Makka first. 

So this is one of those stories that pop into existence with the ending crystal clear but everything else vague. Now, you’re all going to hate me for the ending, but leaving that aside, I have two ideas for the beginning.

If I want to be nice, I could make it so that Viktor and Yuuri lived in the same apartment building in Generic City prior to the apocalypse and just pined for each other from afar. But nothing like hacking up some zombies for survival to make you fall in love, amiright? In this case, Makka is alive and well and kicking zombie ass. They’ve trained her to be an excellent undead detector and she’s quite good at scouting.

Now, if I want to be an utter asshole, I’ll make this a canon AU where the zombies show up around 5 years after canon. In this case, Makka died a couple of months back, peacefully in her sleep, and was buried in a pet cemetery. What do you think happens to the pets in the pet cemetery when a zombie apocalypse happens, guys? If I go this route, shit’s gonna get fucked up real fast because Viktor and Yuuri will meet zombie!Makka and that won’t be pretty.

...any preferences which you’d like?

02. ML!Phichit trivia

He had a raging crush on Yuuri, but didn’t realize it after Yuuri left him and Celestino. He decided pretty quickly not to pursue it because he and Yuuri make great friends, but a relationship would be a trainwreck. He got over it easily enough and never told Yuuri who remains happily oblivious even now.

He has owned 11 pets in his life; two cats, an armadillo, a snake, and seven hamsters. He tried with dogs too, but they don’t react well to werewolves, and even rescued strays became restless around his energy.

It took him nine years to woo Celestino; at least seven of these were because Celestino had no clue that Phichit was trying to seduce him. Werewolves are pretty touchy-feely after all.

Mid-2000s, he tracked down his remaining family online, but didn’t contact them because it’s not like he can say who he is. Most of them are the kids of his cousins and their families. He hasn’t been back to Thailand since he was turned either. This will come up in the fic eventually, though not in any detail.

03. Hogwarts Houses (I’m assuming you mean those for my AU and not just random sorting)

Aside from the main two, the only YoI characters who go to Hogwarts in this AU are Chris, Mila, and Yuri.

Yuri is four years younger than Yuuri and Viktor. The sorting hat took a long time with him because it was torn between Slytherin and Hufflepuff. At least half its dialogue to Yuri was about how people so suited to both of those houses were extremely rare. In the end though, Yuri was the one who chose, and it was Slytherin because the ideals of it appealed to him. He flourished in there, even though he kept his foray into dark magic strictly theoretical because he wanted - needed - to be an auror. Why? You’ll find out.

Mila is a Gryffindor and a year younger than Viktor and Chris. She’s Gryffindor and proud of it, but she’s also not into the brash-and-stupid stereotype. She likes to mix her brain with her brawn, and the end result is a force of nature that everyone learns pretty damn early not to mess with. The few that tried because she was small and pretty and looked delicate found themselves the recipient of some sweet little hexes. Once she put on height and muscle, she switched over to using her fists whenever possible for that extra bite of humiliation.

Chris is in Ravenclaw alongside Viktor. They kind of latched on to each other as first years, and always stayed friends. He’s a pureblood but his family isn’t from Britain and not really into the whole obsession with blood purity. He’s been a flirt since puberty hit, and people don’t really expect Hogwarts’ resident playboy to also be one of the top ten students in his year. Most of his light-hearted demeanor is real, but when he needs to be, he can be as serious as the best of them. 

THERE, I WROTE YOU AN ESSAY
