current fic ideas for sauces include like. intricate alternate universe. that fucking lovecore fic that's been plaguing me for months. that other fic wip that's been plaguing me for months. i need to take this character's gay ass to the botanical garden. i need to write five million words about declan shepherd. and five million more about niche religious sects in spectre that will literally never be relevant

thinking abt elegy & declan again and declan's habit of getting themself involved with fucked up strangers completely by happenstance. thinking about them carrying that gold-laced knife in their boot and the way they find release for all of those old aches in supervillainy so they don't end up hunting their friends for sport again or doing shit that gets them killed. and thinking about their complicated relationship to violence and death and the fact that they're nonlethal but they know their boss isn't and that's an acceptable compromise to them. i won't let anything like nemesis or 5 happen again but a few murders here and there well it happens. non-interference policies. i'll carry it with me i'll advocate against it but in the end it'll almost never be a deal-breaker (until it is). the violent bloody escape from the nexus and the welcoming eli home without ever batting an eye at their systemic hunt-and-killing of the people who were in charge of it. declan's dubious morality and the ways in which it isn't immediately obvious and the ways in which elegy doesn't and can't know the full shape of it -> the holes in her string-board that keep her from putting the (frankly absurd to consider) dots together about her little god-ghost-apprentice. dec & shepherd's the killer / the final girl dichotomy. the way that shepherd doesn't flinch away anymore either. dec's gotten worse again maybe but they're never letting go of the quad even as they dig their way down to hell. Does her ghost know how well they've taken to supervillainy? of course he does. it's an old dance with more careful steps

i need to make a full sauces2 vibes playlist because the individual void one has five songs on it and it takes me like a month to put a new one on it every time

on an unrelated note to that bit but related to fasciat(ii)on i like the idea of just naming all my declan character studies that but adding an extra 'i' every time

on my fasciat(ii)on bullshit again but in order to get to the body horror you're going to have to deal with my the harvest religious worldbuilding. "again"? yea

on my modest mouse bullshit again thinking about parting of the sensory as an alt sauces/spectre song

(guy who saw too many mlp infection aus late last night and got scared vc) the spectre sculk situation is like designed for a weird grimdark infection au

permafusion retribution is haunting me like forever. if i am not making up new flavors of time travel au then i am dead etc etc. something about wandering trying to find the solution to your existence and finding this instead. throwing yourself into the void again, prepared but not quite sure of it, just for this one chance. what if it's the shepherd thing again, what if this erases us from existence, we don't know what we're doing but fuck it, what else is there to do? the amalgam of it all

P5R IDEAL REALITY -> THE MUSIC BOX

the thing is that the sauces cast is like the perfect kind of weird to be put in a persona au but i can't decide.. which persona game to stem it off of

i mean the obvious solution to this is to wildly fuck up one of the existing games or to invent a new kind of metaverse deal but like half the fun of doing a persona au specifically is that i DON'T have to do the worldbuilding again. however. the worldbuilding is also calling to me, per fucking usual

trying to count how many canonical declan iterations exist for the purpose of imagining a stupid 'family photo' type thing. the answer is: at least three

do you ever have something obvious in hindsight about your ocs and their relationship to each other that just kind of smacks you in the face

Whenever I see an Ivan Aivazovski painting the sea monster in me goes absolutely feral

been thinkin abt dec time travel. in vagueness because it's something i want to bounce off of folks but it comes down to two things (both of which are sort of established in the og tags) what if there were 2 guys / what if you had to act normal. s2 dec having a separate body implies it as a temporary act (probably an artifact thing) but ending up in their younger self's body as replacement implies it as permanent. both are reallyyy interesting to me for different reasons but especially the latter because. they would not be handling it well

beset upon & haunted by the specter of time travel aus
