#a fragment of god

[yume-writes]

A Fragment of God idea: I just now imagine Blue Cop also being constantly sleepy due to me believing that he was in a Sleeping Beauty situation while trapped.

A Fragment of God

Blue Cop is just a eepy boy, he deserves to rest

Also maybe he acts a bit like how silver from twst acts due to the whole sleepy beauty situation, the dude is still tired cause of it

I crave the way tenderness brushes against hunger, a gentle ache clashing with the raw pulse of desire, the softness that soothes and the fire that voraciously consumes.

Not me brainstorming a fic where our Cale gets knocked out or faints idk after spitting out blood again. Everyone thinks (because they’re literally so traumatized from this) it’s gonna go as normal: Cale is going to be unconscious for a few days (maybe weeks), wake up, eat a shit ton of steak, and then promptly drop some batshit crazy lore/new information so that he can immediately go back to work.

A week passes, then two, then three. Cale breaks his record of twenty one days in a coma. Everyone is worried but they try to stay calm, since this

had happened before and the best thing they can do is keep things running in Cale’s absence.

Then Cale wakes up around a month after, with no warning.

He looks around blankly, barely processing the people in front of him nor the baby dragon crying in his lap. He touches his hair for a bit, notes the fantasy setting & and the talking cats.

Then he looks at Choi Han and frowns. He keeps frowning long enough that Alberu steps in and says his signature “my dongsaeng is driving me nuts.”

Cale goes wide-eyed, head whipping towards Alberu.

Then he whispers.

“…The Dark Tiger?”

Alternatively, our Cale gets knocked out of his body. Who else wakes up in his absence but our baby Kim Rok Soo from the Sealed God Test?

Cue chaos.

First of all: OMGOMGOMG I LOVE UR ART STYLE SHES BEAUTIFUL AND IM ENVIOUS OF YOUR CLEAR TRAD ART

Ahem. Part 2

Sorry I'm a little slow. So. To recap.

-none of the characters are from OG verse except Eggman and Sonic

-these new characters have been in New Yolk City for a considerable amount of time

-they, including shadow, don't know their og counterparts.

-We should not consider Sonic Primes characters of New Yolk to have any bearing on this au.

-in the first comic, when Sonic says "we should beon the same side", he means "against Eggman".

|

--> I thought "on the same side" meant the original shadow and Sonic (from the TV show) were in this au. Perhaps Shadow was the one sent to New Yolk and Sonic was in the shatter space, perhaps for years. So shadow changed with the times and when Sonic came back he's already accustomed to the new life , which is why Sonic is like "ur not the shadow I know 🙄🙄🙄 (I see now that I'm wrong lol)

Thanks for this au it's good food ,🙏🙏

Hellooooo and thank youuuu :D

As for your understanding of the au:

Yes, Eggman and Sonic both had their hands on the prism before everything went to shit. Eggman only had ONE of the shards, while Sonic managed to get knocked into the shatterspace with the rest of them.

The characters in New Yoke barely had time to enjoy Green Hills before Eggman took over, so most of the younger cast grew up in a shit hole.

Sonic is the anomaly, so yes, he's the only one who knows the counterparts of the people in New Yoke. No one else knows and just has to take Sonic's words to an extent.

This au is canon divergent in almost every single was except for the basic premise. I'm going wild with whatever I wanna do :D

Sonic had a little bit of information about Shadow's past before they actually met (this will be addressed in the fic), so he was under the impression that since Shadow was in the resistance at some point, they should be working together.

Keep in mind for those first two short comics though, Sonic has limited context as to what had occurred before he arrived in New Yoke and wasn't aware that Shadow had left the resistance, so Shadow's more seemingly selfish actions were all the more shocking to him.

EDIT: I’m correcting that last point just a little bit! Sonic isn’t aware of the resistance when he’s captured so yeah he’s just assuming Shadow should be on his side since he’s one of the only familiar faces left in New Yoke 😓 I don’t know how that slipped my mind it was LITERALLY IN MY NOTESSSS

hehe, I'm back with the thing that eating Blue Cop mental slowly, which I mentioned in the star guardian sleeping curse. Oh god this thing could even become an independent AU but I think that it might be better suited if it were the same universe with a fragment of god AU.

Firstly, we know that Blue Cop only got close to Flame Nova and according to Flame Nova's words, he said that after years becoming a star guardian Blue Cop was never really able to get along with his colleagues. This made me think of a scene when Blue Cop and Flame are getting close to each other, something might have happened to Blue Cop, the time of the event could be before or after he becomes a star guardian. And you know that Blue Cop also has abandoned fear, so I have been thinking, what if someone made him question his worthiness? 

In my opinion, the reason why a person has abandoned fear might be because of a toxic relationship where the victim had no idea that they were being manipulated and taken advantage of. Connect this with Blue Cop, we could see that it’s quite related. In the previous post of your ask about mcb x tfp headcanon, there is a post about that bot who is big = they’re very important if I’m correct. And Blue Cop being probably being the smallest star guardian at that time could cause some gossip about his true worthiness, about if he is actually strong and well-deserved or just lucky that he got through all of his competitors. Young Blue Cop probably soon hears about the gossip so he tries to use words to turn off the gossip, but a very small part of the star guardian at that time actually believes in Blue Cop’s worthiness. Then he changes to use action to prove his worthiness, but little did he know that at this point some of his mental disorder hints have started to show up. 

Blue Cop probably works very hard for the next few weeks, he actively accepts every job even if it's not his work he still does it, he does everything just for an approval that he shouldn’t care at all. But sadly, his colleagues not only didn’t approve his hard work but also shamelessly came to ask for help with paperwork. Slowly Blue Cop forgets how to refuse things he doesn’t want to do, if someone asks him to do something, he will accept it without hesitation. Without notice, he not only became a people-pleaser but overworked damaging his physical strength. At first it’s just him falling asleep on his desk without noticing, but it’s become to suddenly unconscious in the hall. He was so burned out, his frame had to shut him off just to save his life. 

Things eventually getting worse and worse, his health goes down so quickly that the medics have to warn him that he will die because of overwork. He has to obey the medic's words because, after all he still loves his job, but when he started to refuse helping other work the gossip started again but this time about how pathetic he is. Blue Cop hears about it and his mental start goes down more, even though the gossip COULD BE a pity on him but he still feels like he let everyone down. Both his mental and physical health didn’t improve but went down instead, it became so bad the medics had to keep him in the medical room until he showed some hints of being better up.

After like weeks in the medical room with no improvement, the medics have concluded that he has depression. Things kind of went worse after that, Blue Cop started to believe that he had been abandoned and no one cared for him from the start, which was kinda true. Meanwhile, the gossip had finally come to the higher ranks' ears and they demanded Flame Nova to come down and control the situation. At first, he was just gonna handle only the one who started the gossip but he realized that he should also handle the victim too so things could go back to normal. So he came to the medical room to take a look at Blue Cop’s status and after hearing Blue cop story in his perspective started questioning how he hadn’t crashed out yet.

Flame Nova did help Blue Cop after that, he helped Blue Cop with both physical and mental health and also turned down the gossip for him. No one dares to mess with Blue Cop after that, meanwhile, Flame Nova when he sees Blue Cop's health is improving so he thinks that his work here is done and he could go back to his lonely life. Sadly for him, Blue Cop wouldn’t let him go that easy. He literally follows him everywhere at work, Flame Nova tries to use lots of ways to be left alone but Blue Cop somehow still clings to him all the time. Don’t know since when but Flame Nova had finally given up and accepted his fate that now he has a pathetic clinging rabbit that would follow him everywhere no matter what. And yeah that's how their friendship started.

side note: Blue Cop did get rid of depression but anxiety and fear of being abandoned still haunted him even after he met Flame Nova.

A Fragment of God

Wow let me just, *runs away with a suspiciously asked shape lump in my throat*

But honestly what more can I add to this?!!

It's so good!

You know that Blue Cop would be a people pleaser, especially because of the height = importance thing. Being the smallest star guardian means not many think highly of him. God, I can just think of Blue Cop thinking he has friends only because they give him the smallest bit of attention to get him to do stuff. He does their work and gets, "This is why you're the best, Blue Cop." And he feels so happy at being praised that he ignores the cruel giggles from behind his back

Being pushed more and more still he passes out and slams his head into the floor. People start being so much more cruel to him after he starts refusing, it starts becoming physical, shoving and pushing him to get him to accept. The medics don't even have to keep him in the room, he doesn't want to leave, he doesn't want to face people

Flame Nova was like a light in the darkness, the only person who actually cared for him. He did everything to please him, to prove his worth, to make sure he wasn't abandoned

Which is why it hurts so much to see Flame Nova steal the memory core, to try to stop him, to feel him break his leg, to see a look of apathy on his face as he does it

He abandoned him too, huh

Also do you think Flame Nova starts calling Blue Cop a rabbit? He thinks about Blue Cop being a 'pathetic clinging rabbit' so much that it comes out, albeit in a nicer way

I liked the memory fragment we see after defeating Miquella and Radahn but it makes me yearn for something similar after ALL the demigod fights now lol. If not after the fight itself, then maybe after you unlocked the power of their Great Rune at the Divine Towers. We could see key points of their lives like when they received their Great Runes - or even adding to the moments that are portrayed in the game's intro

Godrick being hounded from Leyndell or lamenting at Godfrey's portrait in Stormveil about his lack of power, culminating in his first grafting session

Malenia pledging herself to Miquella as his blade, the twins parting ways before the Battle of Aeonia, or their final conversation before he leaves for the Land of Shadow (which would hint at the dlc if you fight her first)

I'd pay to see memories of Morgott leaving the sewers and seeing the Erdtree in its full splendor for the first time, and Mohg's initial communion with the Formless Mother.

Rykard offering himself to the serpent or his discussion with Ranni when she gifts him the blasphemous claw. MAYBE A MEMORY WHERE RADAHN ACTUALLY SPEAKS 😩

I really love how separately Lila, Kell and Holland are literally the most powerful people between all worlds and also smart and resourceful and skilled but. You leave them together in a room for TEN MINUTES and disaster follows
