I've been browsing AO3 for hours and stumbled upon a few AUs where a character becomes Spider-Man. I quite enjoy these types of AUs because of the endless story possibilities, considering Spider-Man has a vast array of villains. The best ones I found were where Remus and James were Spider-Man. But I'm here to pitch an even stranger idea: what if Peter Pettigrew were Spider-Man? I mean, the guy is a coward, and I think that would make for a great story opportunity – someone as cowardly as Peter becoming Spider-Man, someone who clearly lacks a moral compass at first. And here's where I think Peter would urgently need the death of someone as significant to him as Uncle Ben was to Peter Parker. It couldn't be any of the Marauders because Peter holds them in a strange kind of pedestal, so the death of any of them might scare him more than give him the push he needs to do good.
So, hypothetically, a character not mentioned in canon could be used: Peter Pettigrew's father. Now, listen, Peter definitely wouldn't use his powers for good at first. I'd bet Peter would use them to steal some small things from stores – these kinds of things would give him some self-confidence, which we know Peter definitely lacked. So Peter's father discovers this, and he and Peter argue. Peter runs away from home, and his father goes after him (similar to what happens in Andrew Garfield's movie). Peter's father encounters the thief Peter just let go and is shot dead. Peter wants revenge because now he has these powers, and that's what he always wanted – now he's more powerful than anyone, and he wants to find the man who took his father from him.
I think his origin as Spider-Man would definitely be much more violent since it would be for entirely selfish reasons, but I also like to think that with the help of the Marauders, they could help him take a better path, especially James. I think he could definitely have a great influence on Peter's morality.
I also like to think that Peter would still be the same shy and kind boy but definitely much less willing to take any kind of mockery, especially after what happened to his father. As Spider-Man, he would be much more himself, as if wearing the mask eliminates that little fear of what others might say.
Lastly, I don't think Peter would be smart enough to create web shooters, so I actually think if I ever write this, I'd give him natural webs like Tobey McGuire's Spider-Man.
The opinions don't matter to me, but please, if you're going to spread hate about Peter Pettigrew, just don't comment. This is an AU, so we're completely taking into account the canonical personality of the character.
Percy is autistic but was not diagnosed until he was twenty-three, which was when he began attending a muggle psychologist for the war (the man was a squib)
She also kept her autism totally a secret, mainly because she hasn't even processed that she has the disorder
Fred is alive, but most of us have that headcanon
Ron enjoys being taller than the twins, because they can be two against one, but he is a head tall.
The 6 brothers have agreed that they had never seen their mother so angry, like when she found out that Percy smoked
Percy once found a box of old clothes in the attic, this turned out to be clothes from her uncles Fabian and Gideon. She tried it on, having no idea about this and when I come down to lunch, Molly started crying, because Percy was the spitting image of her brothers
Charlie has a dragon skin jacket that he never wears, because he was given it as a gift and he would rather not wear the skin of the animals that he cares for.
The Weasleys only found out about Percy's autism, because he had an autistic breakdown, it must be said that after that everyone made sure to investigate everything they could about autism, so they could help Percy if something like a breakdown happened again
Ron lived in an apartment in muggle london with Harry and Hermione during the post-war years.
Arthur like percy is autistic but was not diagnosed until molly researched autism and saw that many of the autism symptoms fit both percy and arthur
George and fred took some courses on medimagia after the war
After the war, the extended Weasley family enjoys playing Quidditch every Sunday in the morning.
Percy is in a relationship with Oliver
Percy and oliver adopted molly and lucy, and fred and george are their godparents respectively, while their godmothers are katie bell and angelina jonhson
Bill enjoys telling Muggle stories about the Egyptian pyramids, to children, and everyone loves Uncle Bill's stories, because he knows many illusion spells to make it look like they are inside a real pyramid.
Harry and Hermione managed to buy a movie player, to watch Muggle movies in the burrow
When teddy was little he used to wear his hair the same shade of red as the weasleys since he spent a lot of time in the burrow
More relativity falls-
This was only a tiny bit tricky. The only reason Sock Opera happens is because Mabel has a crush. I replaced Gabe with Carla. Stanley won’t have a new crush every week like Mabel, so instead he’s up to some stupid shenanigan trying to get Carla’s attention. Im trying to AVOID making OC’s. Any roles that can’t be swapped or replaced by a canon character will remain the same. (Note: Fiddleford will work beside Stan and Ford, Stanley will be using his inventing skills for the play so that’s why Fiddleford wouldn’t be able to help Ford.)
Again, it’s not a fic, just a...idk it’s like trying to tell someone what happens in a movie by memory.
Stanley sees Carla reading in the library as he and Ford are researching. Mostly it’s just Ford though. Stanley goes to attempt to flirt with her and sees that she’s reading a play.
“Do you like Romeo and Juliet, Stan?”
“I’ve never met em. What’re they, your cousins?”
“Haha, you’re funny! But really, have you read the play?”
“Oh! Uh, yeah I was totally kidding. Yeah! I’m like...a theater expert!”
And thus the trouble begins. Like in the original Sock Opera, a deal is made between the twins. Stanford would help Stanley with his...weird musical take on Shakespeare and then Stanley would help Ford try to unlock the laptop. Stanford mostly just made sure that Stanley’s script stayed on track.
“I may need to make a few revisions, but this is pretty close. I’m surprised, Stanley. I didn’t think you knew anything about Shakespeare.”
“Huh? I watched An East Side Tale and went from there.”
“....”
Stanley is worried about the play because some of the machines and robots have been malfunctioning, he’s worried that one mistake will ruin any future chances with Carla and that would be like...super embarrassing. He apologetically tells Stanford that the play needs a little more attention. As the story goes, Stanford is still struggling to open the laptop and also hasn’t slept. Bill takes the opportunity to make a deal with him and out of desperation, Stanford accepts. The laptop is promptly destroyed and Stanford is immediately stressed out.
Carla takes the time during intermission to tell Stanley that his take on Romeo and Juliet is really unique. She says if the rest goes well, then maybe they could go to the diner together. He takes that maybe a little too seriously, so when Ford possesses one of the extra robots in the room and urgently tells his twin what happened, Stanley is hesitant to help right away, but he caves into that hilarious auto tune voice. Stanley goes to retrieve the Journal when he’s intercepted by Bill Cipher in Stanford’s body.
“Bill Stanford! Banford!” Stanley is truly a creative. 🙏🙏 After they fall to the stage, Stanley is quickly able to overpower Banford and Ford takes his body back...as painful as it may be. Bill possesses one of the robots on stage and swears to the Pines Twins that they can’t stop what’s to come...it’s pretty scary until the robot malfunctions and explodes, setting off a chain reaction of mishap and destruction on set. Fiddleford watches in horror as his robots fly through the air...and so does everyone else, but it’s because they don’t want to get hit with metal scrap, not because Fiddleford’s masterpieces are, well, being blown to pieces.
After the show, Stanley profusely apologizes for the laptop being destroyed. Stanford expresses that he’s disappointed about the situation and is apologetically thankful to his brother for sacrificing his play for him.
“Y’all sacrificed my inventions, that’s what y’all did. There better be a good explanation for it too, d’yinno how hard it was to steal car parts for these?” Fiddleford mutters as he tries to salvage the pieces of his creations. Carla, surprisingly, meets Stanley after the show too. He’s sure she’s going to call him a failure or a jerk, but she doesn’t. She’s mostly understanding and said that having actual robots was an ambitious project for a theater play.
“I’m...not surprised it didn’t turn out well. Fiddleford’s inventions tend to blow up around you and your brother, but maybe you could just give me the script. Everything kind of exploded before we could see how it ends.”
Stanley is practically speechless until Stanford elbows him back to reality.
“O-oh y-yeah sure! M-maybe...at the diner?”
“Meet me there when you get cleaned up!” She grins.
It’s a win for Stanley...and a lose? But mostly a win. Still, Stanford reminds Stanley that their window to finding the real author is closing. They need to move quickly.
Some warm ups and break sketches to keep me inspired, consider em bonuses:
👉🏼👈🏼 if u like it, I appreciate reblogs. It was really neat seeing people like my last post. Made me wanna continue 🥺
Ok I'm from that percentage of the fandom that has Strickler as a favorite character and the other day I was thinking and I imagined an Au in which Strickler was not a changeling but if he was a magician but not like Claire or douxie, Strickler's magic is weaker and for it to work he has to say the spell so he always carries a notebook with his favorite spells I also want to say that I have not seen the series completely so I do not understand very well how magic works in trollhunters (ps: sorry if any of this is wrongly translated I am Chilean and English is not my strong suit this was translated with Google translator )
so i said i manage otto, norman, rosie, emily and curt as friends since college? i feel like norman wouldn't have many friends after starting oscorp and that the five of them would be a great group of friends, like norman, otto and curt are discussing something about science and suddenly emily and rosie arrive from their last 19th century literature class and they start talking about the subject of their class and otto, norman and curt don't understand anything
I can't get this idea of the Marauders x Spider-Man out of my head, so I started writing a bit about the background of each of the Marauders in this AU.
So in this AU, Hogwarts is like Brooklyn Visions Academy, the only difference being that it's located in London and the students are still divided into houses, but it's more like which dormitory sector you belong to and, ultimately, they're not taken as seriously as in canon.
Peter: He's an only child, his father is a paramedic and his mother is a nurse. Due to his parents' shifts, he's somewhat used to taking care of himself. He attends Hogwarts on a scholarship, although he always struggles to maintain good grades and not lose the scholarship. He suffers quite a bit when it comes to balancing his grades and his life as Spider-Man. He's quite close to his parents and his father's death really affected him a lot. After this, he became quite close to Professor Sprout and Professor Flitwick, often turning to them for advice. He's a bit afraid of Professor McGonagall.
James: Like Peter, he's an only child and his parents are quite old. Because of that, he's quite spoiled, but he adores his parents, and woe to the person who insults either of them because James Potter isn't afraid to hit someone. He's the captain of the Hogwarts hockey team. His family is extremely wealthy, so he's always attended private schools and has no problem spending money on gifts for his friends. He's Professor McGonagall's favorite, as he's the best student in his class and has ensured that Hogwarts hasn't lost a match in the last two years.
Remus: Like the other two, he's an only child. I didn't want to completely ignore Remus's lycanthropy, so I decided to make him a mutant. He can control the transformation, but it's quite difficult for him to do so during full moon nights, so he simply opts to spend them as a wolf. He still has scars, but they're from when he was attacked by Fenrir Greyback (who is also a mutant in this AU). Remus managed to defend himself, and that's when he discovered he was a mutant. Lyall Lupin has made a great effort to change his beliefs about mutants since discovering his son was one. Now he and Remus are quite close. Likewise, Remus couldn't ask for a better mother than Hope Lupin. Like Peter, he has a scholarship, and thanks to it, his family can afford to send him to a school like Hogwarts, as Lyall Lupin is a police officer and Hope Lupin works in a bookstore, so they don't have money to spare like James and Sirius.
Sirius: He's a special case. Like in canon, he didn't have a good relationship with his family. For that reason, he likes attending Hogwarts because it allows him to be away from his family for much of the year. Initially, when he and Regulus started attending Hogwarts, they were quite close, but they started to drift apart over the years. Finally, when he turned 15 (about 6 months after Peter became Spider-Man), he ran away from home and lived with the Potters for a while until his uncle Alphard Black managed to become his legal guardian. Sirius goes to therapy once a week, but he's managing quite well. Alphard is also trying to get custody of Regulus, but it's not easy, as the Black family is quite wealthy and probably has the best lawyers in England.
so I saw this post and need to do an edit, so I got down to work and created this, I change the lyrics to the audio so that it fits with the story that my head creates
I will do a pov of this so that it is better understood
Pov: After killing Foyet, Hotch begins to have hallucinations of him, little by little he loses his mental stability, until he finally breaks, get ready, because Aaron Hotchner will not forgive any serial killer
(Hotch's relationship with Foyet's hallucination is based on Edward Nygma's relationship with the Riddler in Gotham.)
the ghost hunting team ever!
Norman: I think goblin swallowed your ipod
Otto: what!? How do you know he did that?
Norman opens his mouth and beats his chest
the first chords of If i Were a Rich Man are heard
So i was thinking about the fact that norman and goblin were probably kicked out of universe before the final fight with peter because the goblin suit was in good condition, so if norman goes back to his universe at one of those times, he could just go home and peter would never find out who the green goblin is and the green goblin would just be gone overnight
(I haven't seen 2002 Spider-Man in years so sorry if this is inaccurate)
Personally, I like to think that Peter actually managed to kill twelve Muggles with a single spell. I mean, the man became an Animagus when he was about fifteen years old. He might not have been a top student in class, but he was clearly no idiot when it came to magic. Not to mention that he actually succeeded in resurrecting Voldemort. So yes, I do believe Peter had some skill when it came to magic and wasn't a complete failure like some people think.
