Do you know one more person who might join?
So with A lesson in practicality, my understanding is that Virgil can stop time, Patton can split himself, Roman has electricity powers, and I forgot what Logan can do. Is anyone willing to elaborate more on this AU?
Logan has telekinesis and telepathy
I know about that one, I just said, but the other two have so many different AUs like that that I wouldn't know which ones you were referring to. But I'd like to possibly share some AUs, prompts/hcs, and other ideas for our RP maybe if that's okay?
Go ahead. I mean, you own the roleplay, so you can do what you want lol
But if we did ALIP I'd probably want to be Logan
(Might be him regardless oof)
Also ALIP has a sequel! It's called Probable Theorem! But anyways, so far I have an Inverse Sides au, a FamILY au, a Magic au, Roommates au, Fusions au, and a few others but that's what I got so far tbh, sorry.
Oooo do tell. Those all sound pretty interesting, especially FamILY, Magic, and Roommates (roommate roleplays always seem to be fun)
Idk? What's the magic one?
Magic roommates?
I think magic roommates is basically A Lesson in Practicality
So!
Inverse Sides:
"Dark and Light mean nothing. Look at Patton, so kind and caring and sweet? It's such a fucking lie. He's a traitor and a murderer, but we'll get back to that. His moral judgement is harsh, he's stubborn, and he never learns from his mistakes. And Logan! So desperate to be listened to that he'll side with the monster in order to get a single word in. So scared to show his emotions, he hides them and pretends he's okay, that he can handle it, holding up the discord of the mind like Atlas. Virgil siding with the supposedly moral side, because he has no choice. But he's almost as bad, considering what he used to stand for, not that he'd remember it after what I had done. And the twins. Poor old Roman and Remus, what a sad tale. Patton certainly held a grudge against what came before. Old Creativity was so bright, a King, some would say. But he didn't exactly have a filter. Patton knew we had to have a Creativity, so he picked apart the side and threw out the rot. At least he didn't kill Remus directly after the split. Filing away bits nobody needed and putting on a bright facade to hide his mouldy, bitter, compost core. But why should you believe me? I'm just a lying little snake, after all. Patton isn't a monster, he isn't a tyrant, definitely not.
If only he'd let me just take control like I'd asked, everything would have been fine…"
The gist of it is, Patton's a lying bitch, Deceit is also a bitch but a nice bitch even if he is a shady bitch. Logan is a depressed boi. Roman and Remus are broken parts of a whole. Virgil is a bitchier bitch. And the mindscape is a natural disaster. Basically…. If Sanders Sides were the same in terms of rating as DWIT for all the episodes and every dark, evil, good, mysterious, crazy aspect of the sides is brought out for a more analytical and possibly cynical look at how we see ourselves. Ann's how ourselves see us.
Fusions au did I say this list would be in its original order??!!
So, a few things to establish. First off, Thomas is and isn't a gem. He's not like Steven per say, and for your information I've only watched parts of Steven Universe so I can't say I'll be accurate but I'm also deliberately tearing apart canon because rules are boring. So, Amulet is a result of several pieces of shattered gems coming together to form the perfect gem, then sending it to Earth because Earth is secretly a great power source but it's uncontrollable, so the creators want their perfect gem to mature a little and grow into their powers and eventually dominate Earth. Amulet choses a human as their link to the living world and guess who? It's our boi, Tommy.
So the gems, or what remains, manifest as parts of Thomas, connected to his thoughts, memories, and emotions, they become his Sides. Due to some undetermined Plot Bullshit™ they get schpooted out of Thomas but T-boy now has/is/djajcnnsiJdmdkalemd a gem made of parts of them, a whole fuckin rainbow. If Thomas dies they die, and the Gems/Sides don't want that since they're finally free, albeit not the same gems and without their memories or identities outside of being Sides, only having some base knowledge that Gems should have.
There's a sort of Gem outpost base thingamajig that was made for them to find once they had grown into Gem weapon-dom, kinda? Anyways, they screw around in there, have some fun saving the universe, having a gay old time (Patton, I hope you're proud) and all'a that. I plan to bring their actual creation into the plot at some point, but for now I'm just explaining my shitty story ideas because it's three AM, I had a good idea, and I won't be able to remember this and I hate writing on paper because working hard? Never heard of her. Also I wanna see if anyone would actually like me to write this so I'm putting this up here, spoilers and all, to show the world.
Have fun roasting me for murdering Steven Universe canon, motherfuckers.
Note: I lazily copied and pasted this from my AO3 and sooo…. yeah.
Magic au:
Everyone has a power. Well, most everyone. Whether a magic, or a certain feature, you'll have something setting you apart from being a human pleb. It's normal to be paranormal. If you have like, cat ears, a tail, wings, etc, you can look like an average human because you activate them through your Soul Mark, normally achieving your fist transformation at around thirteen. However, some people do not have Marks.
The sides are roomates. Magic roomates. Virgil is a conspiracy theorist who keeps insisting the royal heir who went missing years ago is still alive and among us. Roman and Remus are the twins who make it their job to burn down the house over a petty argument. Patton is the softie dad friend who keeps Ro and Rem from burning the house down. Logan is the mom friend, but like, the wine mom friend. Deceit is a closed off, introverted Markless, who is like, mini-rich and works as lawyer. Gayness ensues.
FamILY au (the one I'm stanning most here tbh):
Based on a Tumblr post I made a thing of.
Deceit and Patton are a happily married couple. The others are their kiddos, Logan is the oldest and the most fucking done with life even at eleven years old, and has Autism (like his Dad, Deceit). Virgil is nine, emo, and a bean but has major anxiety and PTSD from abusive parents that fortunately were arrested, and then Pat and Dee came along and adopted the boi. Roman and Remus are both seven, twins, and are a complete handful. Roman has ADHD, and Remus has Tourettes where he says stuff like "POOPY!" randomly wit no filter, stutters a lot, and will do a weird blank stare and head turn kinda? It's creepy but he can't help it! He has a few other weird fidgets too, I'll leave it up to the writer to add what they like. Deceit as mentioned is autistic like Logan, and Patton has Vocal cord dysfunction but can generally work through it and rarely experiences flares so it's all good. Oh, and Deceit owns a used bookstore!
Tumblr shit, aka the PTA Dad!Ceit
Snarky remarks at the other parents like, "Sure Linda, Logan found a way to turn trash into a renewable source of energy but your son totally deserved the science fair's first place with his shitty baking soda volcano."
Deceit being in charge of all the food for the next activity because your tuna casserole sucks Helen these kids need real food.
"Remus may be a handful but at least he isn't putting anyone in danger like that disease-causing flesh bag you call a son Brenda, jfc just vaccinate your kid-"
"These lemons squares you made don't taste anything like couch stuffing Karen."
"If your son is allergic to peanut butter Mary then don't buy the peanut butter squares Mary, why does all of society have to stop enjoying peanut butter because of your son's allergy, Mary?"
"Roman can wear a skirt if he wants to Linda, it's not breaking any of the rules. At least he looks cute in it, which is more than what I can say about your daughter. In any outfit."
One time he just started hissing at the other parents and Patton had to take him outside to calm him down.
Him hugging baby Virgil for support because 'You may be a baby but you are the smartest person in this room right now'.
Deceit in a meeting with the principal, finding out that Roman beat up another kid because he was bullying Remus and being like 'Good. Let's go get you some ice cream as a reward.'
Just Deceit being a dad and going to soccer games and spelling bees and talent shows to cheer his kids on makes me want to asdfkwudgpcbsak-
But seriously fuck u Linda.
"Helen, of course Remus is fitter, he's not starving on a vegan diet."
"Well naturally, Karen, Logan is smarter, he eats gluten to help his brain develop, but I suppose brainlessness is hereditary in your family."
"Don't be mad that Roman looks more radiant than Phaucet, Linda, he eats his veggies, because Patton doesn't boil them to mush."
"Yes Virgil wears eyeshadow, Nancy, don't be jealous that a child learned a skill you haven't mastered in 20 years."
"Why would I ever want to leave my husband for the cute babysitter? Unlike you I enjoy my men like my wine, the same brand and well-aged."
"No one wants to chaperone your boring field trip, Carol. Only Frankie would enjoy a toothpick museum!"
"We know you've been secretly putting peanut butter in your kid's lunches, Deceit." "And I know you've been secretly putting Vodka in your vitamin waters, Mary, but I figured that was none of my business"
"Say what you want about Patton being soft, Karen, at least he's not hard for the perky young barista at Starbucks like your husband."
Also, now for my personal bs, Patton, surprisingly, is the strict one. Oh, he's so sweet and kind tho!!! No. He will fucking roast his kids if they misbehave. But he's still cool. Dee, the tall, dark, brooding persona is more a sassy gay tsundre. He will cuss out the PTA one minute, applaud his sons whenever they fuckin' breathe the next. He'll reward his kids for "righteous" violence, aka stuff like the Roman in the office incident mentioned previously. Patt and Dee are a power couple of fluff. Deceit keeps on getting arrested for stupid reasons, but Patton is a doctor in family children's health and gets paid well so he has so far managed to bail Dee out of the slammer every time. Deceit was way worse before they were together, honestly, so Patton's been a good influence. Deceit, on the other hand, is a terrible influence. Also, soFT MOCEIT KISSES AJFJVKW!AKGJDKAKFJME!!!!!! Deceit will fight anyone who makes fun of Logan, especially his autism since Deceit grew up with the condition and never got any support, he'll murder anyone who hurts Lo (And Virg and the twins as well, don't worry) because he hated the stigma he got, he'll make sure Logan loves a happy and fulfilled life if he dies in the process.
Roommates au:
College roommates. Roman and Trash bastard are bros, as usual. Logan is the sober friend who drives them all home smashed from clubbing. Remus is the one who is constantly sexiling his roommates but is also the one with the highest alcohol tolerance and backup plan for when Logan refuses to drive or is drunk himself. Roman is the best cook, Deceit second since he has sensory processing issues that go with being auti (I stan autistic Deceit) and so he doesn't cook a huge variety tbh. Anyways, they save some money and their health because Ro and Dee keep them from eating just pizza all the time. Similar to the magic AU, Dee is instead studying to be a lawyer, Virgil is the local conspiracy theorist, Roman and Remus have that I would die for you but I'll kill you if you leave your dishes in the sink without washing them one more time kinda mentality, Patton is the dad friend and Logan is the wine mom friend. Dee is also the wine mom friend. Patton is studying to be a veterinarian, Logan an astronomer, Roman an actor, and Remus? He wants to be a teacher. Of math. Who knew? But hey, he can calculate like a champ and it saves the money for the paying and tip when they all eat out and if you thought about "eating out" the other way congrats, you get to play Remus now.
Inverse au? My horror catharsis fic that I'll never post, you're welcome. Roommates? A mashup of different roommates fics and ideas I've had because why not? Fusions? To much Steven Universe binging. FamILY au? I'm gonna post it someday…. I hope. Magic? Based on an abandoned original story I made, because that's how we roll. reuse lame ideas, make them even more lame! So…. FamILY au is my personal fave since I've fleshed it out more, but I'll leave it up to you guys to vote.
I like the inverse one, the family one and the magic one.
FamILY p l e a s e. I need Logan so badly I stg lol
Patton: Kiddo, are you eating Crofters for dinner?
Logan:
Logan: quietly continues eating spoonfuls of jelly
FamILY it is!!
Yeet. I feel like Logan secretly just wants attention and cuddles but he knows he's supposed to be the serious one so he keeps his stupid siblings in line, since he figures that's what Moceit wants. He also reads textbooks and dictionaries for fun, and I'm keeping the flashcards lol
Yaaasss!!! I stan.
So, I've dibs'd Deceit, it seems Caustic wants Logan, who else is playing what?
Are we playing more than one? I dunno if we have enough people to do one each. If so, I can play Virgil too
Well, we have five people, if one more joins them everyone can each have one character.
Alrighty cool
Just to let you know, Logan is definitely going to try and eat Crofters for dinner at least once
