A TUA witcher au that I was discussing with @satan-again where vanya accidentally kills someone with magic, gets sent to aretuza, becomes friends with allison who was also sent there, and later runs away to become a bard.
I might draw more about this au later
Because I’ve seen one or two?? already and wanted to add my own. (This is very basic and superficial AU, but that’s what I have lol)
Basically:
· Luther- Ben- big, awkward Luther who’s scared to leave the house because leaving the house means stress of accidentally releasing the Horror. And stressed Luther means, hello, tentacles. It’s a cursed cycle so he stays in the house most of the time and does a lot of meditation and control exercises
· Diego- Klaus- ‘my-middle-name-is-Angry’ Diego would take no shit from no ghosts. He’d slap on a pair of earbuds and blast…idk, something super loud (Slipknot??) to drown out the noise
· Allison- Diego- badass, knife-wielding, action star Allison??? Do I need to say more?
· Klaus- Five- our boy still travels his ass to Vietnam and meets Dave but before he dies, he zaps them back to present, safe and sound, and happy as they deserve to be
· Five- Vanya- uhh, this AU has him sorta-kinda-totally dead (that’s why he still looks 13) but imagine this little murder machine, who is technically 30 years old, following Diego around and making remarks on his poor life decisions the whole time (and helping him solve cases ofc)
· Ben- Allison- he doesn’t really use his power much. He has learned to think carefully before using it so when he does everybody knows shit hit the fan
· Vanya- Luther- just. tiny Vanya being able to bench press literally everyone and everything and random people being like “???How????”
Bonus (aka a measly bit of plot I came up with for this):
Five and Reginald get into an argument during which Five lashes out (much like Vanya did in the series). Reginald decided to medicate him but fucks up and ends up killing him. Now pissed AND dead, Five tells Diego what happened and he tells the rest of their siblings and their mom. Long story short, they kill Reginald and live happily ever after.
Headcannons based off Comic info (SPOILERS WARNING!)
The magical monocle will come back. The gang will use it to discover other characters’ pasts and natures.
“Young” Five (or future Five) will be sent by the Commission to kill JFK for REAL this time since he skimped out on it last time. Is the reason the world a little different because JFK didn’t die? Or maybe Five was sent there originally to STOP the assassin who shot JFK.
Young five and Old Five will meet.
A new group of people born mysteriously with powers will appear. In Hotel Oblivion, the last chapter ends with a group of new superheros!
In apocalypse suite THEY STOP THE APOCALYPSE. Not a hc but what’s up with that????
The academy will bump into Reginald again. He is alive at that point BUT he won’t recognize them.
Allison used her powers on Luther NOT her ex husband. She got married to him and had Claire out of love. But she still has to deal with the rumor she put on Luther. (This is a rough one but hey, maybe it’s an easy out to the LutherxAllison relationship arc)
Allison will get her voice back with the help of the commission. They are, after all, experts in experimentation.
Allison will help in the assassination of JFK. In the comic, she posed as Jackie Kennedy. Obviously, their looks aren’t similar, so she might not pass as her. But she could always use her powers to help in the plot.
Five and Luther are twins!! The commission threatens to kill their mother if they do not comply.
One of them will find and read Reggies journal about them. They’ll learn he’s even more of a dick than they thought :/
We will find out about the training the other kids got into (like Klaus in the mausoleum).
Reginald has powers too.
my therapist: long haired aquaman david castañeda isn’t real and can’t hurt you
long haired aquaman david castañeda:
Robbie: why are you blue?
Justin: cause I’m a ghost
The sass level is high

Ben and Klaus Hargreeves are such a lovable duo!
Character theories
Klaus’ powers will be explored more. But the fandom tends to focus on his Netflix powers and his comic levitation/telekinesis powers. I would be happy if these weren’t in the show (they’re a little much) but, instead, his comic possession powers were introduced. In the comic, he was able to kill cha cha and hazel by possessing Cha Cha and killing hazel and then making Cha Cha kill herself. Though Netflix Klaus is much softer than comic Klaus. I doubt he’d make anyone kill under his possession. BUT he could be great at infiltration js 🤷♀️
Diego will show off his aqua man powers.
Five will get a puppy, Mr. Pennycrumb. He will show more love to this dog than any human.
The timeline change could bring back Eudora. Maybe make it so that Diego never met her in the first place. Or Klaus could bring her back with his powers.
We will see where Hazel and Agnes ended up. I’m hoping we’ll see more of them. Maybe even join the team! Or settle down and adopt some kids together.
We will find out about bens death. Did he kill himself (As suggested by the quote on his statue “May the darkness within you find peace in the light”). This would explain why he doesn’t have any noticeable injuries.
Maybe he ripped himself apart so there wasn’t anything left to show as a ghost. That might be why he looks normal and aging as a ghost.
This is a stretch, but maybe he ended up in an alternate dimension. His chest contains an inter-dimensional portal with an assload of monsters. Would it be so hard to believe if he got mixed up with his own power?
Do with this what you will.

Five: There's only one thing worse than dying.
Five: *rips off paper to reveal the words "Ben dying"*
Ben: Me.
Five: NO-
