    Summary

    "It doesn’t take him long to realize he only knows of one person who has managed to cause a positive impression on Darius in record time. But if there’s not one big, specific gesture she did to accomplish that, what can he even do? Being himself wouldn’t work for him as it did for her, or clearly he wouldn’t be having this problem. It’s useless to think about it from that angle.

    Unless…

    Unless he doesn’t focus on being ‘himself’, but rather on being more like Luz?"

     

    Or: Remembering how insistent Darius was on Luz having a security escort, Hunter decides that the best way to impress the man is to act like Luz.

    Summary

    (10:32 am) Wilbur: Hey man, I wanted to say happy birthday! You’re 18 now which is insane, feels like just yesterday you were this hyper ten year old running around my legs lol. You don’t have to respond to this if you don’t want to, but I wanted to reach out and let you know that even though it’s been over 8 years since we saw each other, if you ever need anything you can always reach out. I kind of hate that just because your mum and my dad didn’t really work out we lost contact with each other, but there’s not much we can do about it now. Either way though, I’m still here if you ever wanna reconnect. If there’s anything you ever need, like if you’re in a tight spot or you need a place to stay or something, don’t feel bad about hitting me up.

    (12:23 am) Tommy: do you mean that?

    or, when moving to a completely new town to live with Wilbur after not seeing him for 8 years, Tommy realizes there's no good way to call someone an ex-stepbrother.

    or or, a coming of age story about learning how to be a family for a second time.

    Summary

    The guard stared at him for a moment, blue eyes blown wide behind his mask.

    It was then the Pythia looked down at the hand outstretched between them. The prosthetic was made of intricately carved metal, covered in vines and flowers twisting together with the shimmer of enchantments reflecting in the purple glow.

    And although the guard’s sleeve was covering his wrist, he knew that in the place where metal met flesh, there was a pair of dark angel wings tattooed on his skin.

    He was right. This wasn’t a real guard.

    This was a Deathling.

    or, Wilbur is an oracle known as the Pythia, chosen to receive dreams of the future from the goddess Clara. One day, he receives a dream warning him that during a ball Emperor Schlatt is hosting, the Deathlings—terrorists who worship the goddess of Death—will launch an attack. When his warning goes ignored, he knows there's going to be consequences.

    He doesn't expect one of those consequences to include him getting kidnapped by a teenager.

    aka, a cyberpunk fantasy fusion au with lots of religious trauma

    Summary

    “W-What do you- I mean can I- are you here to rob us?” The person managed to stammer out.

    Siren snorted. “No. I’m just here to order some food.”

    “Wh-What about him?” The cashier asked, glancing at Tommy. “Did you- did you kidnap him?”

    “I mean… yeah, let’s go with that in case this ends up on the news,” Siren shrugged, looking back at Tommy. “I kidnapped you, right?”

    “Yeah, sure,” Tommy agreed, knowing that if they said he was kidnapped, it would keep people from getting suspicious of why he was seen in public with Siren. “Anyway, can I get the chicken nuggets happy meal, with a coke?”

    or, how Tommy—who is not a hero, or a villain, or even a vigilante—saves the life of one of L'Manberg's most feared supervillains, and accidentally ends up becoming the resident doctor for every supervillain in town (and maybe gets a family along the way too).
