#wip AUs

24. What is an alternative life path your OC might have gone down? How different would their life be if they'd made those decisions?

Thank you for the ask, @saturnine-saturneight!!! I'm going to go with some of the cast of Supernova Initiative!

None of the AU's below are remotely canon, but they are indeed a fun exercise in creativity!

24. What is an alternative life path your OC might have gone down? How different would their life be if they'd made those decisions?

I'll go with three alternative universes: an evil/worst-case scenario one and a best-case scenario/perfect world (utopian version) one.

SUPERNOVA INITIATIVE

Jack Tithus -

(Canon/Current Jack Tithus - A charming intergalactic thief who steals from the government as a form of rebellion, and who will do anything to keep his sister and his friends safe.)

Evil AU -

What would cause it: Firstly, Jack is such a good person that it is very difficult to take him into a villain arc, but not impossible. For this Dark Version of their universe to take place, their story started out pretty similar but had a much more tragic end - for Jack to turn evil, something terrible would have to have happened to his siblings. So, in this Villain AU, before the siblings could leave Cethea III, during a harsh winter, Cassie and Deimos ended up killed by Junction Sentries, and Jack narrowly survived. In this Dark AU, Jack - broken by the deaths of his siblings - becomes a rebel extremist, who rouses a revolution against the Junction, targeting the regime's big cities with lethal chemicals as a way to punish those who ally themselves with the government. His grief would lead him to have "an eye for an eye, blood for blood" outlook, probably becoming precisely the type of person he swore to defeat.

Perfect/Utopian AU -

What would cause it: In this AU, their galaxy was never under the dictatorial dystopian regime of the Junction, and thus their moon was a thriving merchant settlement rather than an oppressed mining colony. Jack's parents were never killed, and so the siblings - Jack and Cassie - had a comfortable life and never had to struggle to survive. Jack becomes a pilot, trained by their mother, and Cassie gets an internship at a prestigious academy, where her inventor talents thrive and she becomes one of the best robot engineers in the galaxy. The main difference is that, in this version of their world, the siblings would probably never meet Deimos, as without the Junction's crooked influence over their planetary system Deimos would not have been kidnapped by slavers and brought to Cethea III in the first place. The first difference would probably be his personality. In this Utopian AU, Jack wouldn't have to have become so confrontational and rebellious, and likely wouldn't have been so blatantly defiant of authority and overprotective of his sister, while he probably would still be an outgoing and doting older brother. He also wouldn't have become an intergalactic thief, as he would not have had the need to be one in the absence of the Junction's oppression.

Deimos Soll

(Canon/Current Deimos: Deimos is the best sniper in the galaxies and the first member of Jack and Cassiopeia's space thieves' crew. He is cold and ruthless, but above all, a loyal friend, despite their differences at times.)

Evil AU -

What would cause it: What if Deimos hadn't escaped from General Laylah in time? What if she managed to break him into the perfect living weapon during the five years he spent away from his friends? I think that Deimos' 'Dark AU' would be centered around that premise. He did some fucked up things in his time away from the crew and became a lethal sniper, yes, but he was never needlessly cruel, never hurt innocents, and always hunted down evil people who oppressed others. But, when he was captured by General Laylah, if her torturous experiments had worked she would have been able to strip that humanity away from him, and all that would be left would be a dangerous husk, with the skill and capabilities to cause massive damage, now unbound - and without his kindness and morality to hold him back, few people would ever be able to stop him. The most dangerous killer known to the galaxies would have been created, and one under the complete control of an unhinged warlord set on spreading her empire - that is a disaster for anyone standing in his way. Honestly, the galaxies are lucky this isn't the Canon Route, lol.

Perfect/Utopian AU -

What would cause it: I think it would be pretty much like Jack's Utopian AU. No Junction, no civil war, no slavers. Deimos' people wouldn't have been forced to become ruthless to survive, he wouldn't have been seen as a weak link, his Nestmates would still be alive and he would never have been kidnapped and taken by raiders to Cethea III by force. Overall, I like to think he would have become a Paladyn - a knight of his people - and used to talented aim to watch over his people. I also like to think he, Jack, and Cassie would have eventually met - like they do in the canon story - at some point, under less dire circumstances, and become best friends either way.

Gabi Ophyria

(Canon/Current Gabi: The adoptive daughter of the galaxy's most famous assassin, Gabi is a rebellious girl with a heart of fire who joined an underground rebel group to undermine the Junction.)

Disclaimer: Since her current situation in the story is actually the best-case scenario that could've happened in her situation (which was pretty screwed up because of the villains), I'll go with two different "Evil AUs" instead!

Evil AU 1:

If, all those years ago in the past, after completing his mission Pyerce hadn't connected the dots and run away from the Junction with young (then orphaned) Gabi under his wing, things could've turned out a whole lot different. If the Junction had acquired her through some means, she would have been trained as a super soldier, much like Noctus was, no doubt to break the spirit of the rebels still loyal to her family name. With her memories wiped and no one to dotingly watch over her, Gabi would have been turned into a fierce soldier, like a 'war hound' ready to follow every command of the Junction. With her strength and perseverance, she would have been a tough enemy to contend with, and would likely be turned against those who were loyal to her family in the past as a way for the regime to mock them, and she would have no idea of it.

Evil AU 2:

This AU starts out very similar to the Canon. Pyerce deserts the Junction after finding out the truth about his 'mission', and flees the galaxy with a young Gabi, whom he adopted as his own as a way to atone for what he'd misguidedly done. Where the story takes a dark turn in this Evil AU, is that - some years later - instead of being able to settle down peacefully on a flourishing planet in the Khosmonian galaxies, the duo ends up found by mercenaries sent by the Junctions - Pyerce's former colleagues - and Gabi is forced to watch someone she considers as family (Pyerce) be killed, like her biological family was. This makes Gabi's already fiery nature turn wrathful and filled with a thirst for revenge, and after she escapes, the girl would likely train and become an assassin deadlier than Pyerce ever was, on the road to brutally kill one by one of his former associates, those responsible for his death. However, on this search for revenge, Gabi would probably blur the lines between wrong and right far too much and go past a point of no return, and become her own worst enemy without even realizing it.

reader who gets reincarnated lifetime after lifetime and sukuna, who is desperatly in love with you, so he waits each lifetime, only to have the same results: you despising every bone in his body. no matter how weak he makes himself, having tried so many times to get you to fall for him, you always figure out what, who he is, and the cycle repeats. because sukuna may love you, but you will never pine for a monster. and with every death, he waits, and tries again, because maybe one day he will figure it out what it takes to make your heart sing. maybe one day you wont care that he is the king of curses and will give him just a drop of affection. but for now, he kisses your hand, imagining your eyes to be softer, and waits for the familiar slap across his cheek for daring to lay his disgusting hands on you

dark rider and… dark rider 🤔

Gale sketches for my next render, I might try a new paint style and will definitely add more details later.

Lately, I’ve been thinking about Gale as a necromancer, who's body is rotting from the orb and only keeping his appearance up with the Weave. My inspo is from the Sandman comics, @/GarnetDawn's rendition of Gale's arcane hunger, and Eternals from Divinity.

Work in progress!!

It's been a while since I drew my Office AU and I really want to create a character sheet first, before continuing with more comics. Unfortunately it's taking me forever to finish these, so please be patient with me.

I'm ready to just completely throw Jax's designs (so far) out the window!! I need to redo it! 😫

Ragatha and Pomni on the other side, oh yeah.... I'm loving it very much 😍❤️ my girl, my Queen!! Ragatha safe me 💕
