Long Ahh RC Au Post

long ahh RC au post

Alrighty so attempting to write an outline for RC au now, hopefully it doesn’t sound too sleeby deeby cringefail *note: this is the general outline, it doesn’t include any small misc lore details, however misc small lore details will be provided if i am asked about it/ will be necessary for later contextualization of other lore. intro/general notes: -so this au basically started as a question of “what if UI got the rot instead of pebbles” -i am mainly focusing on UI and GW (and trying to come up with lore for these sillies), the rest of the iterators will mainly not change much and will stick to the cannon pre-SpearMaster campaign lore (basically keep the triple affirmative events and related characters mainly the same as cannon, this includes the local group too as to some extent they are involved with trying to research what happened to SoS and how she ascended) -as mentioned in previous note; this au takes place before SpearMaster’s campaign. -a lot of this au is me trying to make lore for UI (and GW too, but mainly UI), so i am not exactly sure if it is close to the tiny hint of cannon lore we see for UI, however if there will be more updates about UI’s cannon lore, then i will rewrite some parts of this au. -also misc note that i do not know where to put anywhere else. I guess in the beginning of the au’s storyline, UI is on good terms with the local group, however does really annoy their local group sometimes. -oh!!! The triple affirmative had JUST been broadcasted, only about 100-500 cycles ago! (also misc note that i do not know where to put)

storyline: -So this kind of begins with UI trying to find something to do, they’re VERY bored, especially now that everyone has basically abandoned all work to go theorize about SoS’s triple affirmative. Honestly they’re not too interested in the triple affirmative themselves, however they do like to find ‘so bad its funny’ theories, best place to go for these is anti-sliverist groups. -Basically off they went being a nosy little prick, saw two iterators exchanging a theory document, secretly intercepted the exchange to check what this document had. Honestly it wasn’t so bad its funny, but it also wasn’t good either. They just went back to work. -Well guess who realized that they had lost access to A THIRD OF THEIR SYSTEMS (of course it was UI smh shouldn’t have been nosy!), after more inspecting they realize it is malware, not the harmful type but probably annoying to deal with. -And annoying to deal with. They had tried multiple ways to get rid of the malware but none of them worked, they resorted to attempting to rewrite the genomes of their neurons to forcefully kick the malware out of their systems, this is a pretty risky way of getting rid of malware (especially since rewriting or editing genomes is taboo, so you’d have to find a way to bypass the restriction in the code to be able to do this. One wrong move and you’re probably not gonna be doing so good) -Did they get rid of the malware? Yes! Did they also create another new problem for themselves? Also yes! They created the rot :( -They panic for a bit, try to get the rot off but fail miserably. Around this time GW gets rather concerned for UI and tries to ask them if they’re doing alright, however get no answer back. Some others from the local group also try to see what happened to UI, pebbles being their closest neighbor tries to send his overseers to their can after also trying to contact them and failing. He didn’t think it was this bad at first, sometimes UI just pulled silly pranks on the group so he assumed this was another prank gone wrong, however he discovers that they have the rot after sending overseers to their can. He is met with the option of keeping quiet about it (probably what he would’ve wanted too if he was in their situation), or tell the local group to at least get them to stop being so worried (little does he know if he tells the local group the panic will only get worse). -Well uhm!!!! THIS IS REALLY NOT GOOD FOR UI!!!!! THEY HAVE NOTICED PEBBLES’ OVERSEER AT THEIR CAN, AND DESPITE DESTROYING IT, IT DOESN’T ERASE THE FACT THAT HE NOW KNOWS ABOUT THIS TOO. they frantically contact him, asking him not to share this with the rest of the local group so as to not get them even more worried. Pebbles agrees to keeping quiet AS LONG as it doesn’t get worse, however if it does get worse then he will have to do something to help them (as much as they both dislike this. UI doesn’t want the local group knowing (especially GW) about their condition, and pebbles doesn’t wish to put up with UI’s shenanigans since they can get real annoying sometimes) -So far this is where the story leaves off, i will be giving updates about this au once i come up with more lore! So so sorry if this is hard to read or written badly, it is almost midnight! Do please tell me if I made some mistakes here so I can go back and fix them!

idea: they do somewhat what they do in canon, but instead of being a batch they just start panicking in the global chats and all the gossip about it has the exact effect on them thar it had on pebbles

or alternate: pebbles ditches on her in the group chats instead. complete role reversal!

oooooo!!!! hmmm for the first one !!! oh i like the first one!!!! i will most likely use that idea or something similar!!! (rewrite it just a tiny bit to fit into the au, like just explain what happened prior and how it happened, it won't get changed too much if it is even changed at all!) perhaps UI attempts to ask for guidance but due to their panicked state they aren't exactly too rational at the moment and they're just an aheem heem whimper of a mess !!! although how would the information get spread around as a rumor in the first place? would UI themselves be responsible for accidentally spreading it? or did someone else spread the information of UI getting the rot? and if so then how would that happen? :0 as for the second idea, pebbles and UI are on somewhat good terms (although UI does annoy the hell outa pebbles), so something would have to happen for pebbles to act like this (especially since i am mainly keeping his character unchanged and very close to how cannon pebbles acts, so not sure if it will be too in character!) AAAA seriously thank you for the ideas tho!!!!!

*hands u smol scavenger*

awwww!!! AWWWWWW!!!! THANK YOU!!! i will keep it safe and hold it gently and give it blankets and pearls!!!!! thank you so much!!!!!!

uhhhhhhh

all of it

gimme all the lore

...or just as much as you've figured out/are cool with sharing at the moment/etc

hmmmm well the only i am rotating in my head rn is the evil angst! i remember void rupture incidents being mentioned in the lore???? not sure! so like: 42 strikes worked as a maintenance worker for iterators?! and i guess them and their coworkers were doing the ussualy work day of fixing stuff up, and like, i think one of workers noticed a void fluid pipe that might have some issues ? so they tried to fix it! they failed!!! oh they failed so bad!!!! the pipe was barely holding on already, and them trying to mess with it caused a void fluid rupture incident!!! (neither did the valves of the pipe work enough to stop the void fluid flow, the whole pipe was dissolved from the inside out by void fluid) and so uhm that coworker became void soup i guess :( bro got dissolved :( AND HERE IS 42 WHO WALKS RIGHT INTO THE SCENE OF THE INCIDENT, TRIES TO GET THE BARELY ALIVE COWORKER AWAY FROM THE VOID FLUID AND PROMPTLY GETS VOID FLUID ALL OVER THEIR LEFT ARM, LEFT SIDE OF TORSO, BOTH PALMS, AND UPPER LEFT LEG TOO!!! YOUCH!!!!! not sure what happened next but definitely the hospital bills must've been expensive :( and here comes 15 swords of crimson, with a deal too good to be true! of course 42 takes it, what other option do they have? (it doesn't end well) (dw they'll be fine they just need a bandaid and a snickers bar i promise they're ok) (the other coworker didn't survive :( injuries too bad :( didn't come back next cycle either since the cause of death was void fluid)

they still need a name but

BEHOLD i have finally made an iterator oc

*casually becomes a scavenger* lol, idk wut da hec im doing :>

awwwwwww!!! silly scavenger!!!! the colors are very pretty!!!! holding them gently rn!!!
