Hey, have you ever wanted a ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*DC high school AU?*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
All right, so I've been enamored of this idea since I first saw it years ago! I also have some very specific (and somewhat odd in one case) ship cravings that I am so seriously into that I just have to seek them out.
So I really badly want a 'verse with Young Rogues, before they were actually Rogues/when they're first starting to become Rogues. By default I am definitely thinking high school in Gotham City because I absolutely adore the ridiculous idea in that blog post and am ALWAYS happy to play in that space. That said, I am happy with high school somewhere else (maybe vague Southern Gothic feels?), or college-age stuff either in Gotham or elsewhere. Just something where maybe there are supervillains around already but it ain't them just yet.
I'm looking for a Music Meister (the version from Batman: The Brave and the Bold, not Supergirl/The Flash) to play off of and hopefully eventually ship with Peter Merkel Jr. Basically Peter is a lil fuckin weirdo even at this age, a genderqueer castrato who's knee-deep in operations to have all his joints replaced and being homeschooled in his father's cult, with his father being one of the supervillains who's actually currently in operation. I basically feel like it'd be fun to play with the fact that the Music Meister is... a bit more normal, but super theatrical as well, and apparently raised fairly religious (and maybe still shaking that off?), and maybe currently hiding the fact that he has a hypnotic singing voice? I'm thinking of things like school/community theater, bonding over music, mix-tapes, encouraging troublemaking, dealing with bullies, mutual concern and support over personal worries and bad situations, unusual person bringing more excitement and Bad Ideas in + relatively normal person providing a somewhat stabilizing force.
I'm also looking for a Jonathan Crane to play off of and hopefully eventually ship with Edward Nashton (eventually-to-be Nigma). This is a ship that I absolutely love in this particular form, with Eddie being a little nerdball who doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut and Jon being a judgemental, ridiculous hipster. That said, if we don't go totally with the Gotham High AU but instead some Southern Gothic high school AU or college-aged thing, you're welcome to deviate from that. These two being super early in doing crime shit, encouraging one another in it or having identity porn stuff where they don't realize the person in the costume is their classmate at school, and just in general dealing with high school stuff, could be incredibly fun. There's also stuff about their pasts in the comics that could be incorporated in heartbreaking ways, or not. I'm thinking about things like meeting by chance in the middle of the night while not wanting to be at home, breaking into places after dark for just super low-level/low-stakes stupid teen crime stuff, complaining about their stupid assignments in cafes, making their costumes for the first time, or getting a crush on that other stupid attractive costumed criminal who they don't realize is their classmate they regularly snark at, support in shit situations, running away from home for a few nights or even for good.
In any of these situations it could be fun to also "NPC" some other characters at the school, like Edward and Oswald being friends, Jonathan and Selina being snarky buds, Peter and Meister and Harleen all ending up as a wild little friendsgroup, and of course also bullies and Popular Kids and etc. But the above is what I'm primarily craving and I would just really love any of it. So if you play Music Meister or Jonathan Crane and any of this sounds fun to you please hit me up!
