God, GOD Freddie Mercury Was Such A Fucking Badass

I want Syndicate minors, so uh.

AU where Philza’s a good dad, and he’s like…yeah, I’m not leaving you guys alone after this, so he adopts all the minors and they decide to eventually roll with it. When Tommy’s exiled, Phil gives him Techno’s coordinates, and Tommy runs there purposely after he realizes what Dream was up to, and Tubbo is soon sent to join them by Phil, who realized the stress put on his shoulder, and that he was pretty much miserable, said ‘fuck that’, and sent him off to be hidden by Techno and reunite with Tommy, making Quackity president instead.

He eventually meets Ranboo, Drista, and Purpled shortly after, and also sends them there, though they don’t stay there originally, despite coming to see it as a safe spot. Doomsday still happens, but Techno and Phil talk it out with the kids, and while they agree it may be better for everyone to get a fresh start, they make them sneak out all the original history books and stuff, and give everyone a day’s warning to get their important items out before they blow it up. 

The Syndicate is eventually formed, though it’s more chill than before, and they pretty much just want to make sure nothing turns out like L’manberg, with the secret agenda of taking down Dream, as well as trying to figure out how to revive Wilbur, who currently haunts and aids them as Ghostbur, with his probably-not-sheep, Friend.

Like, Ranboo, the minors all have names from one of the rivers of the underworld. 

Purpled is Styx, Tommy is Phlegethon, Drista is Cocytus and Tubbo is Acheron. Might also add Sam and Puffy to it too, I’m not sure.

never getting over how genuinely distressed tai lung looks when po does his shuffling trick. mid fight this man stops and panics because he cant figure out a childrens magic trick

they really became this pic in that scene

so fucked up that alliums exist in Minecraft but not onions or garlic or anything. STEVE YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON A CULINARY BREAKTHROUGH JUST DIG DOWN A LITTLE FURTHER

AU where the different nations and settlements become personified, if cared enough for. These personifications have special connections to their residents-the leaders in particular. 

Said connections allow them to grant minor blessings occasionally, or even temporarily merge with the leaders to make them stronger so they can help more. 

Like, L’manberg comes into existence just a bit after the war begins, and everyone just really starts fighting for it’s ideals. They help raise Fundy, tend to everyone’s wounds, feel just as betrayed when Eret leaves them. 

And when their final death comes, they close their eyes, and let what little remains of them merge into the son of her creator, turning Fundy into a perma-merged, giving him both new abilities, and a hundred new conflicting feelings on everyone he knows. 

Snowchester is born a little bit before the Finale, but Tubbo only learns of her existence once he returns from it, and she is equally loving and dangerous in the name of survival as he is. 

The SMP is a deity older than all of them, but despite that, there are times where it-he seems so raw and human, they cannot help but wonder.

MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ARCANES ENDING BELOW:

Now, this is off topic for my blog but I'd like to shed light on something.

Arcanes ending. Namely the end of Jinx's character arc is what I believe to be one of the finest pieces of writing in the modern world with no exception. When Jinx is born at the end of 103 we see what happens to someone who heals wrong, we see the kind of monster they become when they aren't nurtured and given a proper environment to heal in. Powder becomes a monster known as Jinx who goes on to commit multiple acts of terrorism against Piltover. The way she feeds into this idea of being a monster as a way of lashing out at the pain she's felt from being "abandoned" by Vi is so incredibly realistic and relatable that it begs the question what has happened in the writers lives that allow them to understand such a transformation so thoroughly.

Then, at the end of season 1 we see Powder/Jinx finally embrace her new self with no more qualms about her identity, truly and finally one. Without any need to hold back anymore, she does something truly unforgivable and without redemption in the form of 9/11ing Piltover. Even in this moment though, she screams and cries in pain at how her old life is well and truly gone. The emotional turmoil of what she's done and what she's doing is too much to handle. To violently tear a new life out from the broken and beaten body of your old one is something no soul should have to do, but she does, and she makes it relatable.

Once we see her again in season 2, she has become much more lucid and comfortable in her own body as Jinx, the hallucinations have subsided for the most part and her inner turmoil is appropriately dealt with. Additionally she has a goal in mind now, she's chosen who she is and she knows what she wants to do: Kill Vi. The new life she has built for herself is purposeful, deliberate, no more a mish mash of two clashing ideals.

She wants to solidify her role as a monster once and for all, which ends in an epic battle between her and her sister, and at the very end of the fight right before she's taken out for good? A single soul sees the value in her life and risks everything to protect her. A child. Everyone, even Jinx is shocked by this because how could anyone ever love an ugly, broken thing like her? Let alone risk their life for her? The shock this instills in everyone buys Jinx enough time to escape with the kid, Isha. Imagine performing such horrible, inconceivable actions with no remorse and being full of such hatred, and then one person decides you're worth it. Just one person decides you are worthy of love and that they do love you and want you around. Can you imagine how that would shatter your world view? Being full of such self hatred and hatred for the world around you only to be shown warmth even in those times? This is exactly what happens to Jinx.

When we see her next, some time has passed, and she's even begun to drop the name Jinx. Her new friend, Isha, and her have begun a new life together and they look out for each other. The way Jinx describes her new life is "like I'm looking through glasses, except I can't tell if everything's blurry or clear." And what's clear to us as the audience is that Jinx is FINALLY healing. She is finally beginning to find some peace after all she has been through, and all it took was ONE soul, one singular person to love her even after all she had done. We go on to see her reunite with her sister, and somewhat with her father. We get to watch her slowly rebuild the life that was stolen from her and reconnect with those she lost, and those she hurt. This represents hope and change, rebirth and love, that maybe your sins aren't who you are. That you can change and love and be so wonderfully you with those who love you!

Isha dies. Isha, Jinx's anchor to the world, dies protecting her. Yet again Jinx loses everything. Her father is taken from her yet again in the process and the exact trauma that shaped her into Jinx is entirely recreated. Except, this time? There's no insanity. There's no hallucinations and mania. There's no rage or hate or flames or explosions or chaos or screaming. It's just sad. Nothing but sorrow fills Jinx up as she loses her one and only friend. She intends to kill herself at this point. She looks back at her life and sees how everyone she gets close to dies, gets hurt, or she in some way is preventing from being happy. That she alone is the perpetuator of a cycle of violence that has plagued her families lives for years and years. So she decides to give them closure. She tells Vi she can stop feeling bad for being happy and move on, she tells Cait she didn't know her Mom was in the explosion, and she leaves. Nothing more, just leaves. Doesn't tell anyone what she's going to do, she just does it. The intense guilt she feels is palpable in every breath she takes, it's clear she just wants to quietly leave this world without hurting anyone, just this once. Then the time finally comes, to end her life and finally be free of it all. Only to be stopped. One more remnant of her old life comes back and convinces her to stick around a little longer. Somehow, she agrees, but we all know that this is only temporary. The guilt someone feels after doing something so terrible, so unforgivable, can't be cleansed by a single conversation. She hates herself and just wants to stop hurting people, but she still has a small spark, something in her that has hope she can do good. So she delays her death to try one more time to be kind.

Next we see her, she's got a new look and is fighting alongside Vi, instead of against. She acknowledges their connection and at a pivotal moment, takes the fall. She saves her sisters life and "sacrifices" herself in the process. At the very last moment, she understands that there's another way out of her pain and hurting everyone around her instead of dying. She fakes her own death to everyone and escapes the country quietly. She tells no one and quietly escapes, with everyone having the closure of her death.

No more chasing her, no more thinking of what she might be plotting, no more hoping the old her will return. It's just over.

Her final action in Arcane is one of kindness, and healing to those she hurt. It is not redemption, but it is understanding. She accepts she is a bad person and may very well still hate herself, however she at the very least opens herself up to a new life far from those she hurt. And I think that's beautiful.

Anyway this is just my personal interpretation of the ending, I'm open to new ideas and down to discuss though! Btw I didn't proof read this so if it seems messed up anywhere that's why.

Brotherhood AU

🪦

AU where the world is overtaken by the Crimson, and overall just kind of coming to an end. Foolish and Tubbo are some of the last survivors, and out of respect for Eret, Foolish wants to protect at least one of the people they cared for, since he couldn’t protect her, or anyone else. 

So he uses the last dregs of his power to toss Tubbo into a different world, free of the crimson-except, it kind of goes wrong, because Tubbo doesn’t end up in a different world, he ends up in a different universe entirely. 

A universe where supernatural creatures and the people that hunt them run amongst humanity. 

So Tubbo gets a job as a hunter, because it’s easy and doesn’t require much(because they all keep dying, so new hunters are always needed), but he’s more reasonable than the majority, and also chill, so he gets along with a lot of the creatures he’s supposed to be killing. 

Ends up adopting this universe’s version of himself after finding him on the side of the road. This version of him is like, six, and also apparently part siren, so…that’s interesting. Older Tubbo takes on the name Tobias to avoid confusion.

Shortly after this, Tobias is adopted by the Karlnapity of this universe, after a series of amusing events that leads to them talking more, and growing closer. 

He eventually also befriends the SBI Coven through Ranboo and Tommy, the son’s of it’s feared leader, a vampire known as the Angel of Death.

At some point Tobias finds Michael, who, in this world is a young pure-blood vampire who’s family was killed in a battle between covens. Tubbo discovers him hiding when hunters raid the dead family’s home, and ends up hiding him from then until he’s able to find Tommy and Ranboo, who help him out.

Basically just light-hearted shenanigans with some doses of angst.

Karl’s a vampire, Sapnap’s a demon, and Quackity’s a shapeshifter. 

Ranboo’s a pureblood vampire who’s coven was wiped out years ago, and he was taken in as a child by Philza. 

Tobias is a adaptive hybrid, so he takes on the traits of those around him, for many reasons-because he feels safe with them, because he really, really doesn’t, and so on. He has no control over it, besides being able to somewhat shift his features to a different person he cares for.

The thing is, hybrids are very, very rare here, and adaptive hybrids most certainly aren’t a thing. 

So it results in a lot of chaos, between him unintentionally taking on Karlnapity and Tubbo’s traits, and everyone dealing with the resulting instincts, it takes a bit for them to get used to it.

On the bright side, when Tobias shifts into a vampire while he’s sleeping over at the SBI Coven, the trio gets the joy of seeing the SBI, some of the most powerful vamps in the world, spooked as they watch Tobias take on Sapnap’s traits and start munching on a steak.
