What about au where smiler was partially marmalised and works for the ministry and is trying to manipulate Victor and Alice into getting marmalised and becoming advocates

*waggles hand* So, not opposed to such an AU, but it would have to end with Alice and Victor getting Smiler out of the Ministry instead of Smiler successfully getting them to become Advocates. Reason being is, well, a Smiler working for the Ministry and trying to manipulate Victor and Alice is an unethical mind controller! And we know what Alice does to unethical mind controllers:

Yeaaah, if you've ever thought my Smiler seems a little nice when compared to the coaster's actual theme, that's the reason. I had to give them ethics, otherwise they were going to get stabbed. So yeah, an AU like that would have to be along the lines of Smiler trying to get Victor and Alice to join up, only for Victor and Alice to instead show THEM how the Ministry is actually not really interested in happiness and is pretty evil honestly and get them out of there. (Which is actually not dissimilar to what happens in my Londerland Bloodlines AU (after the events of the game), where Smiler THINKS they've joined a group interested in making people happy and helping them through rough patches in their lives, but in fact the Ministry they've fallen in with is Ministry as in "Formerly The Followers of Set," and THEY'RE more interested in corrupting people with false joy...awful shame that they end up targeting Victor...)

#anonymous #ask #valicer #ministry employee AU #it's an interesting idea #just I have to go with the 'Smiler is ultimately redeemable' angle #because otherwise #see the gif #that is the tricky part about having an OT3 where one member is based off of a brainwashing machine coaster #and the other dealt with an evil brainwashing psychiatrist corrupting not only her but literal children #you gotta make sure your coaster OC is actually a decent human being #suppose it helps that I tend to focus on the more fun silly parts of the canon instead of the creepy parts #the Smiler most like the coaster is probably my Valicer In The Dark Smiler #and even THEN they don't actually pressure Victor and Alice into joining the Advocates cult #hell Smiler doesn't even mention they're a hypnotist for a while because they're worried it'll decrease maximum happiness in the group #(they end up revealing it after they think it'll add to happiness if they use it to help Victor's insomnia #but that's another post)#basically all the evil stuff tends to get offloaded onto Dr. Kelman #because he is a Convenient Evil Psychiatrist #and Smiler gets to be lots of fun and at least reasonably ethical
