sometimes you make aus just to see how far you can push your favorite fictional little guy within the bounds of their canon characterization before they’re straight up an entirely different character

#listen i dont mind if a character is ooc so long as it doesnt straight up disregard canon #you gotta stick with that little kernel of original characterization and so long as you make sure to do that you're good as far as i care #anyawys. thinking about my au linebecks.#just barely manages to keep qualifying as linebeck on the grounds of very different environments. its fun anyways #we got. space au linebeck as a v skilled bounty hunter who struggles to find a purpose outside of bounty hunting #crimson king au linebeck finding himself in a country mouse/ town mouse situation living a double life #multiple au linebecks who struggle with feeling useless and unneeded in his group of friends and risking himself to feel needed #ough. i got a linebeck who is broken by years without support and with constant anxiety and fear and trauma who manages #to drag himself to the top to give himself a good life and to challenge what caused him so much agony in the first place and #finds that the status is empty and that he cannot move past the one person who he relied on before they disappeared for so long #and now works for the thing that shattered both of them and now finds himself stuck in a position causing him more stress #and while he's figured out that he truly wants freedom and to support the people he loves he can't tear himself from his current path #as he tears himself apart for the person he is obsessed with and for the sake of others he doesnt even know because he cannot #get himself to stop what he has started and finds himself in a dangerous spiral even as he finds support and success #sorry. this is what happens when i have gut's theme on loop for too long #im thinking so fucking hard about that last au. you bitches arent gonna see that thing written for years sorry #salty talks #the relatability of this post tanks when you read the tags #most of my aus start with the idea of 'what if linebeck was in x situation' and it goes fucking insane not long after #dont mind me just basking in the experience of being able to create stories. also enjoying wrangling linebeck's character into fun shapes
