Happy gay month cuz you gay and stuff 🏳️‍🌈 ✨

I’m late to the party and it’s been awhile since I’ve posted, just been really busy this summer. But I hope yall been doing well! I’ll also try to get Chapter 2 out soon too!

[retroden-85]

Omg sorry lol, I did forget to answer that. The YouTubers will be a major part of the fic, I have plans for them!

Just wanted to come here and say that I ALREADY LOVE YOUR AU OMG AAAAAAA

I'M LEGIT SQUEALING AND JUMPING IN JOY

The first chapter was a great introduction to Axel, Olivia, Petra and Jesse and how their dynamic works going forward!!

also admittedly I thought Jesse's parents was Alex and Steve before they were introduced to be completely new characters lol

Not againts it btw!!

Can't wait for the next chapter to come and be able to meet the ocelots <3

(And for the murderer to start inching closer TEHE)

ALSO ALSO

you have no idea how happy I was for Torquedawg to be mentioned, even if it was in the form of his shop considering how neglected my guy is *sobs*

Makes me wonder if the other victims will also be mentioned :3 (aka the ‘YouTubers’)

Omg hi! Thank you so much for the kind words and support of Chapter 1! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Also, Jesse’s parents are in fact inspired by Alex and Steve lol. When writing this chapter, I was debating on just straight up adding Steve and Alex as his parents, but in the end wanted to disconnect them and make them more of their own characters, but they are heavily inspired by Steve and Alex, personality and design wise. (When I finally get around into drawing their character designs)

I’m happy you liked the Torquedawg mention! He is a pretty neglected character in the fandom and I wanted to represent him in someway. One of my goals for this story was to include as many characters from the game into the au. From major characters to literally background characters that have just a few lines, I wanted to give them some sort of role in this story. Whether that be major roles or minor mentions. And going back on the topic of Torquedawg, he will be around more in the upcoming chapters so stay tuned for that! As for Chapter 2, I’m excited to get this chapter out whenever I can. A lot of characters, including the Ocelots will be featured in this upcoming chapter. It is taking longer than I expected to get this one out because life suddenly got super busy for me but I’m gonna try my best to squeeze in the time to write for it! But anyways, thank you again for the kind words, it really meant a lot to me and I’m excited to do more with this story now that I’ve put out the intro chapter!

It’s here!!!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/65397763/chapters/168294877

Hi yall! I’m finally ready to show you my first chapter of this au! I wrote the majority of this fic but, my boyfriend @legendoffreakshit was a major help in this au with editing and some of the plot.

I’m so excited to finally being able to share this despite the extreme anxiety I have. It’s been fun coming up with the story and I can’t wait to start this journey!

Quick disclaimer, this au is a very heavy story. For chapter 1, it does not get to heavy since it’s an introduction chapter, but be prepared for later chapters because they will definitely include much heavier topics. It is a murder mystery au after all. You can expect topics like death, grief, drugs, violence, homophobia, etc.

Lastly, I would like to thank all of the people who have been encouraging me to post this fic. I couldn’t have done it without yall and I also couldn’t have done this without my loving boyfriend. And thank you to the people who have been anticipating this fic since my last post about this. So without further a do, I hope you guys enjoy chapter 1 of Tainted Pasts!!!

[retroden-85]

Here’s some 80s Female Jesses!!! 😁

[retroden-85]

Here’s a teaser poster of a project I’ve been working on for quite awhile now!

Tainted Pasts

Just after Thanksgiving break of 1987. Seniors, Jesse Anderson, Olivia Collins, Axel Crawford, and Petra Miller all get back into the groove of their final year of high school. All of them have big dreams to chase and want to leave behind their socially suffocating small town of Beacon Peak, Oregon. The four friends were hoping to have an uneventful senior year, but unfortunately, fate had other plans.

Within a month, attacks and murders all across town start propping up. The killer, getting away Scott-free with almost zero evidence to link them to their brutal crimes. The victims seem random, ranging from high school students, to beloved town residents. The town government and local authorities are overwhelmed and receiving backlash with no one getting put behind bars.

Jesse and the gang decide to take it upon themselves to help with the investigations by simply just finding any clues in their local library archives, anything that could help them find any evidence or links to these murders that might have a deeper meaning to them. Along the way, the four friends recruit another senior named Lukas Woods. He’s an enemy of theirs but with what’s going on with the dire situation, the friends decide to put their rocky beginnings in the past and to help each other in the present to maybe find a way to help the authorities catch the murderer.

Unbeknownst to the five of them, they would get themselves tangled into the revenge plot of a crazed serial killer who has a tainted past with the town and the people who call it home. Not only will the five of them put themselves at risk and into life or death situations, but everyone else around them in their lives will be pulled into as well.

Lots of text below for context! 👇

This is my au Tainted Pasts! It’s a 1980s horror movie inspired au because I have a stupid crazy hyper fixation with the 80s! This au contains a lot and I have so much planned with it, in terms of art and the narrative itself. A lot of characters will be featured from MCSM with the main protagonists being of course ‘The New Order of the Stone.’ And the main villain will be none other than the White Pumpkin!!!

Romance will also heavily be involved with this fic, very specifically and mainly, Jesskas (Green Sus. Jesse X Lukas)

This fanfic wouldn’t be possible without my lovely boyfriend @legendoffreakshit. He’s the one that helped me come up with this wild au in the first place! We’ve been having a ton of fun figuring out the plot of this au, with connecting key major events, figuring out the murderer’s motives, and the roles of the MCSM characters in this universe.

There will also be very heavy topics such as: Violence, Guns, Drugs / Drug Mentions, Blood, Mild Gore, Assault, Alcohol, Period Typical Racism, Period Typical Homophobia, Strong Language, Death / Murder, and etc.

So if any of those warnings bother you, this probably isn’t the au for you because this fic will be HEAVY.

Lastly after what seems like rambling and information all over the place. I’d like to say that this is my first fanfic I’ve ever made. I’ve been doing a lot of research and learning off of friends works on how to write narratively. So, take my fic with a grain of salt with my amateur writing skills. Not to mention, my inconsistency when it comes to posting. There’s chances that chapters could take a long time getting posted. But, I hope that information doesn’t discourage you from checking out my fic! It would mean a lot for just anyone to check it out. It’s something that I’ve worked on for a long time and I’m very passionate about it and excited to share it to the MCSM community despite my severe anxiety.

With that being said, thank you if you’ve read all of this! And if you are looking forward to the fic, chapter one will be releasing very soon! So see ya then!

Here’s my Ocelots / Blaze Rods designs for my 80s au! (They are teenagers in this au, if you’re wondering why Gill is missing his luscious thick beard 🧔)

[retroden-85]

Hi! It’s been awhile for me. Been really busy and in an art block for about a month now but I’m back with these silly little gays in my silly 80s au!

I also have a WIP teaser for an upcoming project that’s been in the works for a while now. So stayed tuned for that!

[retroden-85]

1st day of mcsm-tober!!! (Favorite new order member) @deadbeatbug

Of course I love Jesse and Lukas for Jesskas but, Olivia has always been my favorite new order member, especially since the release of mcsm. I connected with her a lot through her passion of redstone and regularly chose to go with her to Redstonia. She was also one of the nicer / least problematic characters in my opinion.

[retroden-85]

Why is this surprising pretty accurate to my personality lmao 🤣💀

ME AND @vastly-fixated-devotee-667 MADE A HUGE MCSM PERSONALITY QUIZ GO TAKE IT IF YOU WANT :33

[retroden-85]

MCSM TOBER!!

*If you do decide to do some of them please tag me so i can see all of your awesome art!!! Have fun!!!
