Can we get some lore on the new cult? Au, like, what is it about how did mc find about it? Who do they worship that kinda of stuff?!?!?!?
ok so for those who don't follow twitter, recently i uploaded some quick doodles of a cult au for mdhm
I went with a kinda woodsy/folk/midsommar aesthetic. It was merely a fun idea but then i dwelled into the details bc i really love anything to do with the occult.
the basic story is these lovely members, yes, including Erika and Stu, are trying to indoctrinate MC, Alan especially wants to have an arranged marriage with them. They all live in the woods, worshipping the "Boss" in exchange for health, riches, and finding their soulmate. They wear animal masks to assign their roles in the cult but because they believe you should ONLY show your face to your life partner.
EDIT: i forgot some other details
they have a marriage tradition of exchanging seeds and planting them to symbolize their love
Erika is in charge of the clothing, especially for the bride or spouse or newcomers
their god kinda gives them signs on who to marry

I have an au thing in mind that I want to write about on here-
It's called "The Storm and The Star" and essentially it's a Castor x Lunar thing where Lunar gets corrupted by antimatter; the antimatter and his star power sort of merge and transform him into what's best described as a humanoid wither storm.
Castor despite his initial fear is there for him the whole time and makes sure Lunar doesn't get killed by the other astrals.
Also I might try make a design for Storm!Lunar when I fully think of how he would look post corruption

debatinf whether or not to have Mei's parents in "The Monkey King and the Infant" / TMKATI au dead, or just put into a position where they lose a lot of their dragon crediblity/are "brought down to peasantry" for the first time in many years.
Two noble dragons, one the decendant of the King of the Western Sea himself, are put into a scenario where they have to weigh their family name and treasures against the safety of their own child.
You can guess what they would choose.
Mei and MK still grow up thick as siblings, and the monkey couple act as another set of parents to the little growing dragon. The Ao-Longs also provide some fair adult company in their lives (Mr Ao-Long is obsessed with old pinball and arcade games, while his wife loves gardening and penjing cultivation), even if they are both workaholics who can be a little stuffy at times.

So I was thinking of a funny little AU that I could ask you so I started thinking of different video game ideas. I’ve been recently playing Forza on my Xbox, and I thought… omg what about a professional race car driver or something like that.
( ask game )
i had something similar! i had a hypothetical yugioh 5ds au and it was really fun seeing freya in a yugioh setting hehe
here she is with her bike DEKOPON (translated into a sick bike)
the general plan was that she was probably just a professional duel runner who plays pretty risky most of the time... her girlfriend is constantly cheering her on from the sidelines

My favorite AU thing ever is when people go crazy with the worldbuilding and backstories. I tend to confine myself to the canon story beats when in AUs, but I’ve seen some amaazzzinnggg stuff when people allow themselves to do whatever they want. 🙏
As for things I wish there was more of, I looove urban fantasy. Give me skyscrapers that are powered by magic crystals or something. Hybrid creatures going to their day jobs in classy suits. There are still swords and capes because why would you ever get rid of those?? I’ve seen one fic that scratched that itch and it has been taken down ;(
quality worldbuilding and backstories are some of the craziest shit people can produce and I have so much respect for everyone writing fics that takes their time with it
might be a personal thing but as someone who was a teen on the internet in the 2010s, all urban fantasy tended to be very same-y and boring to read. it's such a fantastic genre to explore and I wish there was more to it done well. if you have actual recommendations for fics like that please send your recommendations
I love when urban fantasy eiher goes absolutely insane with the settings or just goes 'yeah, there are vampires and werewolves living with us now. no big deal. don't think about it. yes the werewolves get moon leave on the full moon'

You talked about wanting to write a fic where Pluto and snake are fraternal twins. How do you think they'd interact? I can imagine snake either getting pretty overwhelmed/flustered by Pluto's antics or just being used to it and having zero reaction whatsoever
(You sent this to me months ago but we're gonna pretend that's not the case)
I genuinely think that Snake would absolutely have no reaction to Pluto's antics. Like, I feel like he'd be almost blind to it.
I think their dynamic would be fun. Introvert/Extrovert, Ball meet chain-esque dynamic almost. Like, where one is- the other one is most definitely nearby.
In the manor, it would be both a blessing and a curse. Because on the one hand. Pluto is being supervised...on the other hand. The supervisor doesn't see anything wrong with Pluto burning down the entire mansion's forest.

In my Fallout Duskwood AU a lot of the technology is more geared to the Fallout side of things (but not 100%)... so I had a thought.
Instead of a program, Jake has an Eyebot named Nymos. Which is just one of the many ways he communicates with the MCs (though mostly with Mac as Mal is a bit more cautious about these things and Jake DID hack his Pipboy so...). So I imagine the introduction of Nymos is way sooner in this AU than in the original Duskwood as I imagined a scene with Mac walking towards where Mal set up camp while Jake gives her the rundown of the situation through the Eyebot/Nymos.
Jake is an escaped Gen 3 Synth in this AU and my Male MC (Mal) is a Ghoul... I'm still deciding what the people of Duskwood's stance would be on those things as they have no idea what those are... they all recently came out of cryosleep thanks to Vault Tec.

Sea Cryptic! Danny AU- Pt.4
[Pt.1] [Pt.2] [Pt.3][Pt.5][Pt.6][Pt.7]
Danny was sitting in the back, his backpack obnoxiously taking up the seat next to him, when the door to the lecture hall creaked open near silently.
“What are you in here for?” Danny asked the guy who crept into class. He sympathetically took his backpack off the Seat of Shame and allowed the guy to sit down. Funnily enough, they had the same hair and eye color.
“Gen Ed. Undecided. You?” The guy grunted quietly back.
“Environmental studies. I’m Danny.”
“Tim.”
With the implicit understanding of two people in a required class they could not give less than two fucks about, Tim and Danny tuned back into the lecture. When the class was assigned group work, Danny looked over to see Tim softly snoring, head slammed down on the table.
“Tim. Wake up, dude.” Danny poked his shoulder.
“Huh? Class over?”
“Nah, we got group work. Discussion board.”
“Oh shit, thanks for waking me up. Wanna team up?”
Danny shrugged. “Sure. We should aim to post it in the middle so the professor doesn’t read our answers to the class.”
“Yeah, sounds like a good idea. Any idea what we’re talking about?”
“Kind of?”
“Good enough for me.”
——
Tim Drake kept seeing Danny Fenton around on campus.
“Danny! Dude, what are you doing?”
Danny turned, gloved hands full of crumpled trash. “Picking up after the student population, apparently.”
“Didn’t think environmental studies was that serious.”
“Global warming is very serious, you jerk,” Danny smirked at him, crossing the grass to put the trash into the trash can. “Reduce, reuse, oil shouldn’t be spilled in water and all that.”
“Basic stuff,” Tim grinned. Nice, he basically had a friend past Bernard now!
They were friends, right?
“And yet humanity fails to comprehend it. Incredible. Incredibly stupid that is.”
“They get it. Major corporations just don’t care.”
Danny sighed. “True that. You on your way to your next class?” He took off his biodegradable gloves off (nitrile and nylon, baby!) and chucked them into the trash.
“I’ve got free time, actually. Prof cancelled for his daughter’s surgery.”
“Oh, shit, that’s rough! You wanna go downtown and join the strike?”
“A strike? What for?” Even as he asked, Tim hiked his bag higher onto his shoulder, ready to go. They fell into step as the two left campus.
“Apparently, Quillan Pharma was doing some shady shit at their manufacturing plants. I think it’s like killing kids, and pouring toxins into the ground.”
“Oh, shit.”
“Yeah. Oh! Poison Ivy’s gonna be there!”
Tim blinked. He casted a sideways look at Danny. Sure he’s been here long enough to know… but it couldn’t hurt to check. “You know she’s an eco-terrorist, right?”
“Okay, but like… people suck sometimes. And all she’s asking for is like don’t kill the planet. And she doesn’t do that whole mind control thing too much anymore! The Sirens are so cool. Plus, one of my best friends at home might actually kill me if I don’t try to get her autograph. Poison Ivy is like, Sam’s personal hero.”
Tim snickered. “Yeah, okay. Mind if one of my friends join? His name’s Bernard.”
“The more the merrier,” Danny nodded. “Ooo! Hot chocolate. Want some?”
Danny bought three drinks as Tim trailed behind, texting Bernard.
“He said yes.”
“Cool! We should meet up somewhere before the drinks get cold.”
Well, Danny got the autograph. Tim got a new friend, and Bernard got a drink from his crush.
——
“Oh, you’re the glowing dude that Batman always talks about!”
Danny blinked, eyes scanning the wing-like cape and the yellow emblem on the hero’s suit. Danny was indeed glowing, stars and nebulas freckling across neon green skin, and glowing hair the color of a white dwarf star, tinged with the blue from his ice core.
“I… have absolutely no idea who you are,” Danny lied, like a liar. He’s found a surprising niche of entertainment in messing with the local vigilantes and he’ll be damned if he missed this opportunity.
He heard a snicker from the comm lines as Red Robin visibly brushes it off.
“I’m Red Robin. Why are you picking up trash?”
“Picking up after you humans, apparently.”
The both of them blink, feeling a weird sense of déjà vu. A moment of awkward silence passed before they both shook it off.
“Are you here to help? No offense, but the track record for you people is terrible.” Danny strode over and grabbed a bag. He opened it, and shook it at Red Robin’s face. “See? Batarangs, these odd bird looking ones, the R’s. Seriously, pick up after yourselves!”
“Oh, woah, can we have these back?”
Danny yanked the bag back before Red Robin could get close. “Pay me. These were incredibly tedious to pick up. Especially the batarangs. I mean, I even found a whole bunch of old rusted ones in the middle of the bay. What did you do, dump an entire bag in there from the air?”
Red Robin sighed and took out a wad of cash, with tracking fluid all over it. Danny grimaced, smelling the odd scent on the money. “That’s not real cash. It smells off. Are you trying to give me counterfeits because you’re broke?”
Red Robin gaped, oddly offended. “No! They’re real!”
“Doesn’t smell like it. It’s stinkier than the trash. Go get the one with the money, the litterer. Tell him I’ll be back the next full moon. I don’t want to talk to you anymore.” Danny grumbled, disappearing on the spot to watch Red Robin flounder with the stack of cash and the piles of dead bodies on the shore.
“What the fuck even is my life these days?” Red Robin wondered out loud, stuffing the cash back into his pocket. He looked over the plastic wrapped bodies and slumped, sighing.
Oddly enough, Danny felt a sense of sympathy. Well, he’s not getting paid for sympathy. He’s not getting paid at all tonight, actually. Danny flew off, plunging once more into the depths of the significantly cleaner waters, and used his ice to scoop out oil stains.
Danny glanced around and sighed. He had a lot of work to do.
——
“So you’re saying he’s like a werewolf mermaid fae child immortal god thing, right?”
Bruce grunted.
“B, what the hell are you smoking these days? You know drugs are bad, right? Do we need Superman to give you that PSA?” Jason snickered.
Tim, massaging his arms from having to haul an ungodly amount of dead bodies, grunted. He’s so similar to Bruce that it gave the people currently in the cave hives.
“He said full moon. I don’t think we can track him with regular stuff. The bugs kept shorting out.”
“Oh boy,” Dick sighed. “Don’t fall off the spiral cliff, Tim. You’ve got midterms to think about so no stalking the guy.”
“Yet,” Tim shot back, changing out of his suit.
Bruce grunted, setting aside a huge stack of cash.

Wait wait wait!!! I've been playing stardew Valley, do you have a stardew Valley AU!?
( ask game )
i do!!!! back when i drew this i was playing as akila, but i like to think all the NSS shares a farm :)
akila manages the farm's lumber and fish supply, while freya goes into the mines almost daily and jeanne forages in the forest. i think that jules would camp in a tent in the forest too, so he hangs out with his sister while he figures out what to make for lunch.
idunn would probably move in after year 1 to help manage the infirmary, and also make sure freya's not pushing herself too hard in the mines... nex is a gardener who also makes medicine. nex would probably be roommates with krobus as well

hello I have so many AU thoughts,
first and foremost my brain HATES time travel AUs with a desperate passion, and like, it's funny to me because I'm so good with other non-realistically elements or major changes, but my brain says that Time Travel Is Fake And makes Everything Meaningless (with the exception of like, Tales of the SMP style time travel, where it's not really time travel is time tourism. I'm okay with looking into the past, I just don't like the idea of people being able to change things). I've had to block AUs that I otherwise would've liked because they had time travel and my brain just will not get on board with it. That being said I have a great deal of respect for everyone doing time travel aus. I wish I could join you but my brain holds me prisoner.
On the flip side, I really like AUs that keep sort of a similar feel to the original work, but give a hard setting change or just allow for some chaos to be thrown in there. I also really like AUs that blend DSMP & manhunt because the vibes are perfect, and also I think that every version of c!Dream deserves to have men chasing him whereever he goes.
ohhh this is a good take- I do have to ask, do time loop aus fall under the general time travel stuff? or stories that kinda work like Life Is Strange, where a character can rewind and redo?
manhunt meets dsmp my absolute beloved, I remember when it was a lot more common to see these two combined, it's such a wonderful trope, especially when George and Sapnap dig out their old dusty compasses from the bottom of their chests to go hunt their man down- I mean to find and capture Dream
