ok ok imagine a soulmate au where you have your own mark and when you turn 20 you get your soulmates mark-
now imagine:
race growing up with a little cigar on his rib, wondering what he would get when he got older.
spot, living his life with the Brooklyn bridge taking up the back of his hand, not really giving a damn who he was ‘meant to be with’
race, knowing spots mark by heart and hoping that he’ll get a brooklyn bridge on his hand.
spot, turning 20 first and getting a small, momentary searing pain and looking in the mirror to see a small cigar on his ribs- not knowing who it belonged to.
Race, being busy at his dance school not being able to see spot for awhile, not knowing what mark spot got.
spot, watching race preform and gently poking his own nose one where the mystery cigar lay- and for the first time hoping it’s race’s mark.
race, turning 20 and getting that same searing, momentary pain on the back of his hand and hoping- hoping so much it’ll be a bridge he sees. but he’s too scared to look.
Spot, sprawled across a chair jn race’s apartment, watching as his best friend held out his hand to him
“what do you see?”
“a… looks like mine-“
Race, looking at his hand and seeing the very same mark he had studied for years- looking at spot exitedly, and kissing him.
Spot, pulling Race into his bedroom, still kissing him.
just imagine it—

“She stood up and howled, “You are the most sexist.” She threw a Dorito from the carnage at her brother’s fluff-protected torso. “Nutbrained.” She pegged another at him. “—I’m embarrassed.” She grabbed a handful of chips and shot them right into his face. “To even be related to you!”
More for the melodrama than the message, the cafeteria broke into applause accompanied by the underscore of jangling zippers and swishing polyester. A voice came over the cafeteria intercom to sing a refrain “Alright, alright. Settle down.” Katara looked around the room to see the coats turning back toward their conversations. She went to sit down and hide herself from any avenging administrators, but before she sank, she noticed the light of the ice machine glowing as a cup pressed against it, and beside it, a new kid . Revise that: she made eye contact with a new kid by the ice machine. And as anyone who has made soul-searing eye contact with a stranger across the room would do, she quickly averted her eyes and outwardly pretended it hadn’t happened.
Another eye, too, flicked up at the glow. It would have been two, but this would not be the first or last time the scar would obscure Zuko’s view. In another corner of the cafeteria from the siblings, this boy, posh and jaded, gazed up from the small collection of Urban Outfitter punks at his table toward the light, then at the kid. Zuko knew in an instant who it was.”

a star being appeared in your apartment, wdyd?
(aka loop getting reverse isekaied into the modern office au)
also there are some scattered mumblings on loop in this AU under the cut if anyone's interested (spoilers for all of ISAT, including 2hats!)
vvv
TLDR - The Universe keeps fucking with Loop and they are not really happy about it, regardless of timing.
While I haven't decided anything 100% concrete for Loop, the idea of a reverse isekaied Loop in general is interesting to me, so I'll be exploring that a bit here. Especially in terms of timing on when Loop gets taken out of their timeline. At least in terms of immediate outlook within this AU. So, for now, have a couple of those thoughts!
---
The two main points in time I am currently considering are the following:
1. From when they gave up their original wish and made a new one.
In this instance, I feel like their arc would play a bit similar to in game
Seeing this new world as different & peaceful
Since they don’t have to deal with the loops anymore, just watch whatever happens.
Be a lil silly for funsies! The chaos that can ensue with a star being existing within a modern world!
Even though it hurts to see Siffrin’s team hanging around, they really don’t have anywhere to go at the moment (hard to hide a star being in this type of world)
To a slow realization of how unfair this whole situation is. In comparison to all of the horrors they went through, this Siffrin has it so easy.
This Siffrin gets to live an idyllic life, free from the world calamity of being frozen & the literal time loop.
This Siffrin gets to freely hang around their family team, with no foreseeable "end" to being with them in sight.
This Siffrin had their original wish, the wish Loop wanted granted, handed to them on a silver platter.
This Siffrin, nor anyone in this world, would ever be able to come close to understanding what Loop went through; Loop would never truly be seen in this world, not fully anyway.
What does The Universe have against them, to put them into this world and make them witness all of this?
It should have been them, with this carefree type of life, given all they went through.
2. AFTER the fight with Siffrin.
This leans a bit more lighthearted than the last, since Loop would have gone through all the development from the game via convos + the talk at the very end with Siffrin, and has a bit more peace about their whole deal.
Perhaps they would still see the same conclusions as above, since healing from the horrors would not happen all at once, if ever, with additional flavor
Underlying bitterness in why the script is still going.
Why is The Universe asking for them to continue into a new world and role?
Haven’t they had enough, once making them witness another Siffrin’s loops and perfect ending, and now a completely idyllic Siffrin’s life from the get go?
However, there is also a bit of hope in the entire situation. Since if The Universe keeps deciding to fuck with them (as in, sending them to different world lines) there is still, technically, the chance of going backward as well.
To their original timeline and to their family.
Once could have been a one-off, but twice?
Perhaps three world jumps might be the minimum to go back, following standard wishing rituals?
More hope in this one from the get-go, with that thought in mind.
---
Though there are probably other points in time that would be interesting too!
Another one I was considering was RIGHT BEFORE the fight with Siffrin, perhaps even mid-fight. However, I don't think that makes much sense for this particular AU ASAFASFASDAS. Can you imagine if Loop just spawned into this world, doesn't realize this is a completely different Siffrin, and attacks on sight?????
Honestly the idea of a reverse-isekaied Loop into different AU's in general is neat, would love to see other people's takes on it!! Especially cuz of the various reactions/conclusions Loop could have/make based on the scenario/circumstances would be interesting, if that makes sense. At least I think there is something in that thought? I dunno!
I feel like I am missing some characterization bits in here, but that was the main gist of it for now since I cannot remember LMAO.
Mumblings over, thanks for reading my silly thoughts if you got this far!!!
