nerds-are-cool:

if you’re struggling for AU ideas take a look-see at this list i wrote for my friend who dubbed it “better than the 10 commandments" 

1)     Coffee shop AU

i)       Barista and person who has a ridiculous coffee order

ii)      I’m worried about your coffee dependency

iii)     you accidentally poured boiling hot coffee over me so you’re responsible for taking me to A&E

iv)     you give me a different fake name every time you come into starbucks and I just want to know your real name bc ur cute but here I am scrawling “batman” onto your stupid cappuccino

2)      Flower shop AU

i)       You buy a weird amount of flowers and I’m concerned as to why

ii)      I’m allergic to flowers but I work in a flower shop – you’re a customer who’s very confused as to why I’d do that

iii)     (this is also a good way to incorporate flower meanings eg, buying certain colours/types for person to represent feelings etc.)

3)      Library AU

i)       You’re overdue on this book and I want it so I’m tracking u the fuck down

ii)      I work in the library and I’m a little concerned for your health bc you never stop studying

iii)     The library’s pretty empty save for you and me and OH that couple making out loudly in the shelves somewhere

4)      Awful first time meeting

i)       I accidentally punched you in the face when I was too overexcited about something

ii)      I thought you were my friend who’s just done something awful to me (read: cut my hair while I slept, dyed all of my clothes pink, etc. etc.) because you look similar from behind so I stormed up to you and shoved you from behind while calling you an asshole

iii)     You get the gist to this one

iv)     Oooh when you told me your name I thought you were joking because it’s fucking awful and I made a joke about it and things got awkward real fucking fast (perfect for a Hannibal au just saying)

5)      Weird places to meet/awkward meetings in general

i)       We live in the same block of flats but haven’t ever talked and Sunday morning we were both doing the walk of shame and had to stand in the lift together

ii)      “okay I know that being in the woods at 2am is a weird thing to be doing but my friend called me and- wait, why are you in the woods at 2am, fuck I’m going to die aren’t I?”

iii)     A personal favourite of mine – first day at a new job and oh fuck my boss is the person I drunkenly hooked up with last weekend/night

iv)     We keep accidentally running into each other I’m not a stalker I swear

v)      You live across from me in our apartments and we smile when we see each other but we don’t really know each other and oh you’re the stripper at my friend’s stag do/hen night fuck this is really uncomfortable

vi)     “My shower’s broken but I’ve got a date tonight could I possibly use your shower please?” “Oh sure (neighbour that I’ve been crushing on for the past six months) of course you can use my shower to get ready for your date (fuck fuck fuck)”

6)      Friends to romance – pining and all that wonderful shit

i)       You’ve got a date tonight and you asked for advice on what to wear but I’m so in love with you and damn you look good in the outfit I picked out for you

ii)      I really like you but you’re my best friend’s ex

iii)     You’ve liked me for ages and were really obvious about it and I didn’t like all the attention but now you’re over me I really miss it and fuck I think I like you too?

iv)     Somewhere along the way of getting into bar fights together, staying up all night with movie marathons, other friendship things, I’ve fallen in love with you but oh my god this could ruin EVERYTHING

v)      Friends with benefits oh wait I like you

7)      FAKE DATING HOLY SHIT I LIVE FOR THIS

i)       It’s my highschool reunion and I need a hot date so I can rub it in the faces of the people who hated me

ii)      My homophobic parents are coming to visit will you pretend to date me as an extra “fuck you”?

iii)     There’s a person who won’t stop bugging me will you pretend to be my partner so that they’ll fuck off?

iv)     I told my sister I have a boyfriend so she’d stop trying to set me up with people but now she’s coming to visit and I’m in too deep I need a fake boyf ASAP

8)      Soulmate aus

i)       The first words your true love(s) will say to you are tattooed on you and why the fuck are their first words something really ridiculous like ‘I’ll pay you a tenner to punch me in the face’ or ‘quick what’s your favourite animal’ or ‘fucking shit hell holy fuck wow oh my god jesus h Christ fuck me’ etc. or even worse a really ridiculous song lyric like  the opening lines of uptown funk or a high school musical song or smthing did you have to serenade me the first time you saw me asshole?

ii)      You get an ‘impression’ of your soulmate when you turn 18 or something but all I got was a strong smell of bananas or an overwhelming feeling that Thatcher was a good prime minister or an image in my mind of a fucking unicorn

iii)     The more ridiculous the better actually

iv)     Something like whenever your soulmate sings a duet you can’t help but join in and my fucking soulmate is in a goddamn band but I can’t sing for shit

v)      Or maybe something like soulmates always sneeze at the same time and I cant be sure but me and this kid in my French class just sneezed at the same time are we soulmates or was it a coincidence (proceed w character trying to make themselves sneeze around said person to see what’s what)

9)      Alternate universes for real

i)       Mermaids

ii)      Siren and asexual pirate who doesn’t understand why all his crew are losing their shit that person has a nice voice sure but what the fuck is happening

iii)     Hogwarts

iv)     We live in a world where the greek gods are real and you went and got yourself cursed and now I have to go on a fucking quest to sort this shit out why do I love you again?

v)      Pacific rim au (either they’re drift compatible or one of them is a ranger and the other stresses constantly bc what if they die yes I have read a fic like this no I didn’t come up with this one but it’s fucking good) (also if you haven’t seen that film go watch it now)

vi)     Literally any movie or book universe you like tbh just go for it

10)   Other aus that I like

i)       I wanted to go on the ferris wheel but there has to be two people to a cart come on random person let’s go oh wait are we stuck at the top? Fuck

ii)      We work in the same office and you have a goddamn squeaky chair and you wONT FUCKING STOP SQUEAKING IT BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT ANNOYS ME

iii)     Our mutual friend set us up on a blind date and I thought I’d hate it but you’re actually… kind of funny? But because I expected to hate it in no way am I going to let you change my mind just because you’re gorgeous and funny and intelligent oh no my friend is not winning this

iv)     It started to snow and I’m the only one of our friends who would go outside with you – I soon found out why none of the others would go out in the snow with you (this works best if they’re new friends who don’t know each other all that well) when you shoved a handful of snow down my back and declared snow war

v)      It’s nowhere near Christmas it’s literally still November would you calm down about Christmas wait no why are you getting the tree out no stop please stop (if you do this pre-relationship you can have the grouchy one secretly finding the other’s excitement endearing and falling in love with them actually that works for established relationship too)

vi)     Current partner got a new job in America (or other country far away) and we’re getting by on skype calls and emails but it’s not easy and then I met someone new (can be poly or can be finding the OTP person)

vii)   You want us both to get in shape and I hate working out/running but your ass looks really good in shorts oh the things I do for my friends and their nice asses

viii)  Carrying on from 10.vii. you’ve caught me checking you out in what I thought was a subtle way too many times and now you’re calling me out on it what do I do???

ix)     You’re an actor/other famous person that I really admire and I just saw you in the street and as I was debating whether or not to say hi you came up to me and started flirting what do I do??

x)      You were waving at your friend behind me but I got confused and waved back at you and now I’m dying of embarrassment but you think it’s cute

xi)     I sat down in the wrong class and I’m panicking but don’t want to get up and leave because the class has started and you think it’s hilarious and shut up you dumb fuck you don’t know me aahhh

xii)   I’m a waiter at this wedding and you’re a drunk guest who will not stop hitting on me please I’m trying to work no I can’t dance with you omg let me find you some water

xiii)  Our best friends are that awful ‘cute’ couple that make-out in public and call each other “sweetie” and “sugar” and “babe” and god they’re awful let’s talk about how awful they are – develops into “shit we’re the awful couple now”

xiv)  You pissed me off in class so I threw a book at your head and now I’m in detention and jesus fuck I hate you so much and the teacher made me apologise and wait you’re cuter up close and the way you talk is kind of nice actually oh fuck no

Okay I could go on forever but this is over 1,500 words of auing already I have too many ideas christ

Good inspiration!

Ok, homestuck ended yesterday. But it isn’t over for me as I decided to do something more concrete with the AU @moki-art and I made up during last summer

Anysways, I am currently writing a fic and it’s taking a lot of time, my little gay hands can’t write fast enough, so I offer you (whoever might be interested in it) the sirutation general of some trolls.

so here are the situation pre-Sgrub thing happened, like Tavros was pushed off a cliff, Aradia sent ghosts to Vriska, she killed her using Sollux, (though she does come back as a ghost after) Terezi makes Vriska’s arm explode, she gets blinded, ect.

What happens next

Aradia: because of the dream bubble thingy, she appears sometimes in dream to a selected few (Kanaya and Jade most of the time, and Feferi too, this is because Kanaya and Jade share the Space aspect which is for me very linked to Skaia, I somehow can’t dissociate the two, and Feferi because if the fact that she was able to communicate with the horror terrors without going grim dark so she is somehow linked too) she mostly helps with the planning of the rebellion when she talks to those three.

Tavros: he continues to be Tavros, just like we saw him in the beggining of Homestuck, he is happy when he plays Fidusspawn, still wants to fly and continues to talk to his friends but doesn’t flarp anymore, and he does feel nervous about conscription day, but he prefers not to think about it. Then it was time he had to think about it because conscription day was about to come but he didn’t have to think about it too much because Vriska came in with a new pair of legs made by Equius. He was glad he wasn’t going to be killed but he kinda regretted that they didn’t come a little earlier so he could have participated in the Calvalreaper recruiting. But, not dying is great, so he doesn’t really have any complaints

Well that’s it for today

@mtjester

vava-chan-take-over-the-world:

I saw in my last R-stuck post that I didn’t dive much into Jane’s role, and I just would like to say that it was intentionnal, her role and her quest to find the truth will be explained in a fic that I am currently writting. There will be other elements of the plots too and maybe some explanation on some trolls whereabouts

@moki-art

vava-chan-take-over-the-world:

Jane: Pisces, Jane would attend to her duties as best as she can before she is contacted by Roxy and her new furriend who will inform her of the Rebellion, since then her mission has been finding clues as to why did the adults get banned of Alternia after the Summoner’s revolution when the Sufferer’s one had more success and was harder to crush, she will then be reclaimed by Feferi and help in delivering the other Pisces ship’s human

Roxy: Libra

She has been on the Libra ship for a little less than 6 month, her presence is unknown to the crew because she is good at a-VOID-ing to be seen (except Terezi who could smell her). She has been hiding and secretly smuggling humans out whenever she could with the long distance help from her hacker friend, Sollux and his matesprite Feferi who gave them a place to stay afterwards. She doesn’t know how the fact that crew workers disappear every once in a while hasn’t been addressed yet, but who cares? Things are going well for her. She knows about the rebellion (but doesn’t know Terezi is part of it yet) and is ready to help whenever they want. She already prepared an escape plan if needed. She is the Robin Hood of the ship and often steal Highblood’s food to anonymously give it to the poor lime blooded trolls and others.

Jake: Capricorn

He pretty much has the best survival skills out of the others rare humans, you know having lived in a stranded island with his grandmother and what not. Little did he knew she was a fugitive who participated in the Big Uprising that happened 60 years ago, the fact that he was blood related to her meant that he HAD to go work on a ship, his children will have work on a ship, his children’s children will have to work on a ship and so on and on. Life on the ship was very nerve wracking. Sometimes, he worked normally, doing little chores, greeting the important guests; he even made friends with a human girl from the Pisces’ ship. Then, some other time, he just had to hide for days because they had gone on a killing spree. He only saw the Capricorn’s captain once and he didn’t really made a good impact on him, with him being covered in blood and stuff, he didn’t seem lucid at all, though. But he isn’t surprised, not after what his “advisors” made him eat, but that was not any of Jake’s business.  

Dirk: Sagittarius

Life for Dirk could be worse really, if we forget the constant smell of sweat and masculinity 24/7 the life on the ship isn’t that bad, he gets to strife every day, he can still rap whenever he wanted, there are horses. He was surprised to see them at first but it seemed that the captain of this ship has good taste; this made the stay here supportable. Though, he misses his friends and his bro and would kill to know if they’re safe. He pretty much is the best fighter of the ship and everyone’s favorite, but it’s not as if he was going to stay here forever, he knew that he needed to escape somehow. He prepared a plan and a lot of backup plans if the original plan didn’t work out. But seems that he didn’t need to use any of them as the stall boy, a troll with metal legs and a Mohawk just walked into his room and rescued him as if he was some sort of damsel in distress, his plan would have work of course but it is indeed easier to just walk passed the trolls using mowhak guy as a shield since the crew couldn’t kill him, captain orders.

@moki-art @mtjester

vava-chan-take-over-the-world:

I promised the kids situation in the next one so ye

They were all grouped by lot. Looking around they saw that there were only teenagers, all between 15 and 17 years old, they knew what this meant.

They were considered as “elites”, would it be because of some accomplishment or because of their lineage, they stood out.

Today was the day it was decided if they were “worthy” to go work on an alien ship or stay on earth, forever doomed to kill themselves to work for the Troll Empire. For some people this could mean leaving this hell hole for a better life were they are not forced to work from sunrise to sunset doing little chores like cleaning now and then as usually most of them requires lowbloods’s psychic or powers physical strength, for others, well it could be even worse. It all depended on your astrological sign really.

Said like that it does sound ridiculous, but trust me it’s a serious matter, for instance, people who were born Aries or Taurus or Gemini or Leo or even Cancer didn’t have the possibility to leave Earth because of the troll cast system.

 Virgos and Libras where the most lucky, helping auxiliatrix attending their duties and doing paper work wasn’t that bad compared to Aquariuses or Capricorns, they really had it good. The people to actually go there, well, didn’t last long for very different reasons though. In one they were forced to deal with the subjuggulators swing moods daily which could lead to the death of one or two humans a week. In the other, the interest the captain had for science made things become ugly. Experiments were made on the humans and other species aboard. They had the highest dying rates. Sagittariuses and Pisces didn’t had it too rough. Even if in the Sagittarius’s ship they had to fight each other, it wasn’t to the death and they were given basic care, so it wasn’t that bad really, it was just like being a boxer. In the Pisces ship, the most most important, it wasn’t as if the Empress had time to terrorize the humans, they were just another specie conquered plus she was too busy terrorizing her own crew and her crew was too busy trying to please her to actually bully them so it could be worse really. Little information was known about the Scorpios ship, especially since they changed captain not long ago.

Ok, so now which kid is in which ship

John: Scorpio

After fighting his way to the ship, John absolutly wanted to go on the ship, he fought hard and succeded. Though, he didn’t expect for the ship he was brought in to be stolen by a troll pir8 named Vriska Serket, he and the other humans will work on her ship, she often talk about a rebellion but never gets into the details, which make them think that she is lying. John doesn’t like his new captain at first and is tired of her tyrannical ways and pranks her, this would make her change her attitude towards him, because he had guts unlike someone she knows

 Rose: Aquarius

After encountering the captain of the ship she knew that she had to escape somehow, she just needed to wait for the right moment. This right moment would come sooner than you would think as the ship soon landed on a planet for new test subjects. She was able to sneakily exit the ship with the unexpected but welcomed help of a small fraction of salamander-like aliens leaded by a little yellow one which she decided to call Viceroy Von Salamancer as it never gave away its name. She would then learn their leader was rescued by none other than her sister and so her quest to find her would start

Jade: Virgo

 She was happy to be joining the ship, not a lot of person wanted to actually go so she won easily, sure she was a little scared but who could blame her? But that was nothing compared to the excitement she was feeling, for a long time it was as if Space itself was calling her, asking her to play the role she had been chosen to play and set in motion the wheels of change, weird right?. She would be surprised but not too much to find that a big revolution was taking form in the very core of their home planet, in the Auxilatrix’s cave. A jade blooded troll named Kanaya would welcome her with open arms and tell her she was waiting for her.

Dave: Libra, Well life for Dave Strider had always been a bitch first, his brother, Dirk gets chosen to go into one of the ships, and now he too is chosen, he tried to loose on purpose, he really did, but it seems that Striders can’t loose even if they want to, they have been cursed by the awesomeness gene and now Dave had to pay the price of being just absolutely perfect in every way. Worst of all, he had to do paper work for a blind creepy troll girl who would claim that she could see by licking and things. He thinks it’s just an excuse, but he understands, who wouldn’t want to lick that nice piece of Strider specimen? Anyways, life on ship was boring, until one day creepy girl troll announces that she is going to smuggle him and the rest of the human of this ship

I planned to give you the status of the Alphas too but I still have some things I want to ameliorate so ye
