AO3 Was Just Scraped Again, And It Looks Like Some Of My Works Were Part Of The Bunch That Did, So I'm

Just had a thought about abilities in BSD.

Under a read more because I accidentally made a wall of text talking about this-

Oops ._.;

What if your control over your ability depends on how much you accept it as a part of you? The idea that every single ability has a consciousness, one that, no matter what, is made to protect or assist its user in some way. If you don't accept and come to terms with having a second 'you' inside you, then your ability will not work with you, simply because you are not willing to work with it when all it's trying to do is help you.

Because of this, it won't always do what you want it too at first, it won't always work, and it'll do what it thinks is best, not caring about what the user will think about it. You have to understand it was there to help you, learn that your ability is a part of you, even the parts that hurt others, the parts that hurt you, because in the end, all its doing is to fulfill the most human wish.

Survive. Live.

It's not always liking your ability, it's knowing that the ability is trying to protect you, to let you live and survive in grow no matter the cost. The pain it's caused will always be there, sometimes it will come back as a memory, and that pain comes flooding back. It's trying, and so are you. Yes, it will hurt sometimes, sometimes you'll wish you never had it, that you died instead of obtaining it, because that would prevent the pain it's caused. It's not learning to love your ability, it's learning that it embodies the part of you that wanted to survive. It's not entirely you, but a part of you. The more you know that, the easier it is to deal with and use to your advantage.

I've been seeing people's designs for the other party's 'Loops' if they were the only ones in the time loop and hear me out

What if instead of them all being different kinds of stars/start phases, they were all different astronomical objects?

Like Siffrins Loop is still a star, but maybe Odiles Loop is a moon, Bonnies is an asteroid, Mirabelles is a planet, and Isabeaus is a comet (I just came up with random ones for all of them so ofc they're probably not exactly that, but you get the idea, right?)

Idk I just think it'd be cool if the thing they turn into changes based on their personality or something :P

Pull the lever!

Ok this is kinda random but please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks black sheep from Scott pilgrim fits skk so well

OK because the game thing doesn't work with how I want the timeline in this AU to work, and since it's an AU, I'm gonna change it up and pretend you can totally read the Sad Diary before finishing the friendquests.

The story reason? Siffrin is a curious and stubborn child who says screw trauma I wanna figure this out so touching the spoopy star book it is!

Currently creating an ISAT AU because why not

ANYWAYS HEAR ME OUT

what if, when Siffrin loops back during the suspicious event in Act 4, he instead loops all the way back to the beginning, and Odile is now stuck in the loops with them?

Odile freaks out when she's back in the shop, and books it to where Siffrin is napping yelling for him. Siffrin, meanwhile, just woke up and is very confused. They hear Odile and turn around to see her staring at him. And he just looks horrified. Because Siffrin just trapped his family in here with him.

I should be doing one last edit and working on my AU, I'm not.

What am I doing instead?
