Stand by Me Headcanons
Warnings: mentions of sexual abuse, child abuse, and trafficking.
I really do have too many ideas in my head and not enough time to write full stories for them all. So here’s another oc I made awhile back. For Criminal Minds. Of course this is again platonic.
This little girl was born in Grants, New Mexico. However at two weeks her mother disappeared and her father moved them to Harbor Springs, Maine to be closer to “friends.”
Her father is in no way a good person.
By age two she was sleeping on the floor in the basement with a series of other children. She was always the youngest and only girl.
Wondering why the other children got taken when new people came around.
Despite the circumstances the boy actually are very protective of the little girl as protective as they can be.
She develops a brother sister relationship with most of the boys.
They can’t protect her forever.
At age three she’s violated for the first time by a pair of her father’s “friends.”
This leads to a more within drawn personality, trust issues, and dissociative behavior amongst other things.
Develops a type of Androphobia. A fear of men.
Being less affectionate and trustful to the boys in the basement though they’ve done nothing wrong.
At age four her father and the guys face some heat for their trafficking ring and decide to get out of dodge.
Amid the chaos another child helps her escape. While she does get far enough to hide in a ditch by the road. The older boy isn’t as lucky.
She’s found by a nice couple and brought into the Police Department.
Complete emotional detachment and dissociative behaviour.
When the department discovers she was one of the trafficked children. Guess who they call to help find the others?
The Behavioural Analysis Unit.
Derek, Spencer, Rossi being the team tasked with investigating the area you were found.
First meeting J.J. as the Hotch suspects the child would be more open to an interview done by her.
She’s not here for it. She just sits in her chair.
Derek, Spencer, Rossi don’t find much, however they find the other child’s hoodie with a name on the tag. ‘Daniel’.
They return to the department to regroup and rethink their approach.
Hotch asks Spence for his opinion on the little girl.
When Spence meets the child for the first time he recognises her stance, and behaviour as dissociative.
He gets some ice cubes.
The child slowly comes back too, immediately bursting in to tears in response to her proximity to Spencer and Hotch.
She attaches herself to J.J., however she still refuses to speak.
Coloring pictures that unintentionally help with case.
Being curious about the man who gave her ice cubes.
I was busy thinking 'bout boys Boys, boys 👄🤭
I'd like to thank @inspiredrawaw for granting me permission to take inspiration from their wonderful Marvin and use it in a cosplay! I absolutely loved the constellation cape on her Marvin, and I think mine turned out pretty well.
It me drinking milk :-)
Totally reading a spell book and not just a random book I snatched off of my Dad's bookshelf.
Mysterious cape holding action :0
Once again, I'm really appreciative for @inspiredrawaw for letting me use the constellation cape in my cosplay. Drawaw, if you're reading this I hope you liked how it turned out :'-)

The Confession. S.R
Pairing:Spencer Reid x Fem!Reader
Genre: Fluff
Warning(s): Just two idiots in love!
The sun dipped low in the sky, casting a warm glow through the large windows of the BAU conference room. After a long week of profiling and chasing leads, the team had finally wrapped up a challenging case. The atmosphere was filled with a mixture of relief and camaraderie, laughter ringing through the air.
You glanced over at Spencer, who was sitting at the table, his fingers tapping thoughtfully against his laptop. His brow furrowed in concentration, and you couldn’t help but admire how focused he looked. There was something incredibly endearing about him, and it had been hard to ignore the flutter in your chest whenever he smiled your way.
As the last of the team filtered out, you found yourself lingering. “Hey, Spence, do you want to grab some coffee? We could use a break.”
He looked up, his eyes lighting up at the suggestion. “That sounds great! I could use a caffeine boost.”
Just as you both stood up, Derek strolled by, catching the two of you in your little bubble. He raised an eyebrow, a sly grin spreading across his face. “Well, well, look who’s heading out together. Coffee date, huh?”
Spencer’s cheeks flushed a shade of pink. “It’s just coffee, Derek.”
“Uh-huh,” Derek replied, leaning against the doorframe. “Sure it is. The two of you have been exchanging those... meaningful looks all week. It’s adorable.”
“Right?” JJ chimed in as she passed by, a teasing smile on her face. “I thought you two were going to confess your feelings right here in the conference room!”
You shot Derek and JJ a playful glare, your cheeks warming. “It’s not like that!”
Morgan raised an eyebrow, clearly enjoying himself. “Are you sure about that? Because I’ve seen the way you look at him. You’ve got it bad.”
Spencer fidgeted, trying to appear nonchalant. “We’re just friends,” he said, but the slight tremor in his voice betrayed him.
“Friends who definitely look like they’re about to confess their undying love for each other,” Derek teased, winking at you. “I’ll be here all week, folks.”
You crossed your arms, glaring playfully at Derek. “Can you not make this any more awkward?”
“Too late for that!” Derek replied, grinning widely.
As you and Spencer made your way to the café, you could feel your heart racing. “I can’t believe they said that,” he muttered, still flushed. “Derek really knows how to make things awkward.”
“It’s Derek’s specialty,” you replied, shaking your head with a smile. “But you know he’s just teasing because he cares.”
As you entered the small café, the familiar scent of coffee and baked goods welcomed you. You ordered your drinks and found a quiet corner table, the soft murmur of conversation around you creating a cozy ambiance.
After a particularly funny story about a misadventure on a case, you both laughed, the sound echoing in the small space. The laughter faded, leaving a comfortable silence filled with unspoken feelings. You could see it in his eyes—the warmth, the connection that had been building for so long.
You thought back to the dreams you’d had about him—soft moments shared under starry skies, whispered secrets and laughter. Those dreams felt so real, and you had longed for something similar in reality.
“Can I ask you something?” Spencer said suddenly, his voice low and hesitant.
“Of course,” you replied, your heart racing.
He ran a hand through his hair, a nervous gesture that made him even more endearing. “Do you ever think about… us? I mean, outside of work?”
Your heart soared. You had thought about it more times than you could count, but hearing him say it out loud sent a thrill through you. “All the time.”
His gaze met yours, and you could see the vulnerability in his eyes. “Really? I thought it was just me being… well, me.” He looked down, shyly avoiding your gaze.
“No, Spencer. It’s not just you,” you confessed, leaning forward slightly. “I’ve liked you for a long time. You make me laugh, and you’re so kind. It’s hard not to feel something more. I even have dreams about you.”
Spencer’s eyes widened in surprise, and his cheeks flushed even deeper. “Dreams? About me?”
“Yeah,” you admitted, a shy smile creeping onto your face. “Sweet ones. They always leave me feeling... hopeful.”
He stared at you, surprise slowly melting into a warm smile. “I feel the same way. I’ve been scared to say anything because I didn’t want to ruin what we have. But I can’t ignore it anymore.”
Your heart raced. “So, what do we do now?”
Spencer shifted closer, his expression earnest but still tinged with shyness. “I think we take a chance. We owe it to ourselves to see where this goes.”
With a smile spreading across your face, you nodded. “I’d like that.”
He reached across the table, his hand brushing against yours, sending a wave of warmth through you. You both sat there, the tension between you now transformed into a sweet anticipation.
“Can I… can I kiss you?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper, the vulnerability in his eyes making your heart swell.
“Please,” you replied, your heart racing with excitement.
He leaned in, his lips meeting yours softly at first, testing the waters. But as you responded, deepening the kiss, it became clear that this was a moment you both had been waiting for. His hand found yours, fingers intertwining, as the world around you faded away.
Just as you pulled back, breathless and smiling, you heard a familiar voice behind you.
“Well, look at this! The lovebirds finally got their act together!” Derek called out, a wide grin plastered on his face as he entered the café, flanked by JJ and Penelope.
You felt your face heat up again, and Spencer buried his face in his hands, clearly embarrassed.
“Derek!” you protested, trying to suppress a giggle.
“Just making sure you two are okay!” he said, hands up in mock innocence. “I’m just glad I can finally say I told you so.”
“Way to ruin the moment,” Spencer muttered, his cheeks still pink.
You turned back to him, unable to help your smile. “Don’t mind them. I think I like this new side of us.”
As the teasing continued, you felt a sense of joy welling up inside you. You knew that this was just the beginning of a beautiful journey together—one filled with laughter, love, and all the little moments that made life extraordinary.
In the Details, S.R
Pairing:Spencer Reid x Fem!Reader
Genre: Fluff, suggestive but no smut
Warning(s): Suggestive, reader has a hand kink!
(same)
You sat at the conference table in the BAU, surrounded by the team as they discussed the latest case. Your eyes wandered, tracing the lines on the case file in front of you, but soon, your attention drifted to Spencer Reid, who was deep in thought, absently twirling a pen between his fingers.
It was something about the way his fingers moved, the delicate yet purposeful way he handled the pen, that made your heart race. The veins on his hands were pronounced, a testament to the way he always seemed to be in motion. You found yourself blushing as you imagined his hands on your skin, the thought sending a rush of heat through you.
“Hey, are you okay?” you heard Spencer call your name, breaking you out of your reverie. You looked up to see him watching you, concern etched on his face.
“Uh, yeah! Just, um, lost in thought,” you stammered, desperately trying to mask your flustered state.
As the meeting continued, you tried to keep your attention on the discussion, but your eyes kept drifting back to Spencer’s hands. They were long and slender, the way his fingers curled around the pen making your heart race all over again. You could almost envision what it would feel like for him to brush those fingers against your skin, and the thought made you blush deeper.
“Seriously, are you sure you’re alright?” you heard Spencer ask again, his brow furrowing with concern.
“Yeah, I’m fine!” you replied a bit too quickly, earning a few curious glances from the team, particularly from JJ and Penelope, who exchanged knowing looks.
After the meeting, as you left the conference room, you overheard JJ and Penelope whispering to each other.
“Something’s up with her. Have you noticed how she’s been acting?” JJ asked, glancing in your direction.
“Totally. She was practically glowing when Reid was talking. It’s like she’s got a crush or something,” Penelope replied with a teasing grin.
You felt your cheeks burn hotter as you hurried away, hoping they wouldn’t say anything else. You hadn’t realized that Spencer was still in the room, and he caught snippets of their conversation as he gathered his things.
“Looks like someone’s got it bad,” he murmured to himself, a smile creeping onto his face.
Later that evening, you were in the break room, pouring yourself a cup of coffee when Spencer walked in, holding a file. He leaned against the counter, his hands casually resting beside him. You couldn’t help but notice the way the light caught the veins on his hands, making your heart race once more.
“You know, I’ve been thinking,” he began, breaking the silence. “You’ve been acting a bit… unusual today.”
“Unusual? Me?” you said, feigning innocence. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Spencer raised an eyebrow, a teasing smile creeping onto his lips. “Oh, don’t play dumb with me. I know you have a hand kink.”
You nearly dropped your coffee cup. “What? No! That’s ridiculous!” You tried to sound indignant, but you could feel the heat rising in your cheeks.
He stepped closer, crossing his arms and leaning in slightly, a knowing look in his eyes. “You’ve been blushing every time you look at them. It’s kind of cute.”
You swallowed hard, suddenly very aware of how close he was. “I—I have no idea what you’re talking about,” you stuttered, trying to maintain some semblance of composure.
“Come on,” he pressed, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. “I saw how you reacted in the meeting when I was writing. You couldn’t take your eyes off my hands.”
Your heart raced as he continued to approach, the teasing tone in his voice sending butterflies swirling in your stomach. “Okay, fine! Maybe I have a little thing for your hands. Happy now?” you admitted, throwing your hands up in mock defeat.
Spencer’s expression softened, and he chuckled. “I figured it out a while ago. Just didn’t want to call you out on it.”
You felt a rush of relief mixed with embarrassment. “Well, you didn’t have to make it so obvious!”
“Maybe I just wanted to see how flustered I could make you,” he said with a wink, holding out his hand. “Care to examine them up close?”
Your heart raced as you hesitated for a moment, then took his hand gently, feeling the warmth of his skin against yours. “Maybe I’ll take you up on that offer,” you replied, a teasing smile spreading across your face.
As you held his hand, the playful banter shifted into something deeper, the air thick with unspoken tension. You felt a spark between you, the chemistry that had been building finally breaking free.
“Now you know my secret,” Spencer said softly, his gaze locked onto yours. “And I know yours.”
With a nervous laugh, you squeezed his hand gently, a newfound confidence blooming within you. “Guess we’ll have to see where this goes, won’t we?”
“Definitely,” he replied, a hint of mischief in his voice as he leaned closer.
And in that moment, you knew things were about to change.
TAGLIST:
@emma-e-a
Bau x reader where the reader falls asleep on top of Morgan after a case
Warnings: nothing really
Summary: reader fell asleep on Morgans shoulder on the flight back home from an exhausting case
Asks are always open<3
It had been one of the most tiring cases you had had ever since you joined the team
Atrocious amounts of running around and checking crime scenes victims all around
You hadn't slept in three whole days ,not resting once , since this case hit a bit too close to home for some reason
The moment you entered the jet to return home you sat beside Derek, your earphones already in
You hadn't even understood it when it happened but somehow you ended up leaning on him , your eyes closed
You were sleeping
At first no one understood , since it wasn't abnormal for any of the team members to be extra touchy with each other
They finally realized you were asleep when Aaron posed you a question and you didn't answer
'Y/n? Oh. She's sleeping'
Spencer who was sitting by him awed and looked at you fondly
Spencer rose up from his seat and grabbed a blanket , carefully covering you up
Morgan could not be more still than he was now
He tried to keep his shoulder relaxed so it would be softer
JJ snapped some photos with the flash of as to not annoy you
Hotch then went to the light center and lowered the lights on the whole jet
Noone dared to talk loudly , it if they had Emily would give them such a death stare that they wouldn't dare speak again maybe ever
+ a little Penelope context bc I love her
When the jet stopped the team had to wake you up
They didn't want to
Thought about carrying you, but decided otherwise
Entering the federal building ,your eyes were half closed and you were walking weird
Penelope who was waiting for you everytime, seeing you so sleepy made the face she usually does when seeing kittens
Rushed over to you all
'are you ok?'
When everyone responded positively she turned to look at you
' you are so cute I wanna squeeze you to death'
She exclaimed and you pouted
That made her awe even more, and the team was quick to follow
Feel free to request anything:)
Bau x reader , where the reader is in an abusive relationship
Warnings: abusive relationship , blood , slightly yandere bau , gn reader , could be perceived as a poly bau
Summary: you are in an abusive relationship and when you call Hotch crying , they all rush to your side
The people in this team are smart and their job is literally to be observing
They obviously notice your change of behavior the moment you step out of the elevator the day you had met him/her
The energy you gave of , the way you talked and even your choice of clothes made them assume you had met someone. They totally DIDNT feel jealous at all
But you seemed happy and they had no control over you
Penelope was the one to ask and learn about the charming kind man you just met.
So the was the one who informed the others
She stalked all of his accounts and pulled out his criminal records (that were clean) his financial state and everything about him
Not even two weeks after you entered the building with a new air on you
You were shining in happiness
Everyone could feel It and everyone knew
Morgan definitely did not do an extra harsh box training that evening with Enily
And Spencer obviously did not complain to Hotch about it all day
And hotch certainly didn't almost tear apart a book in frustation
Also Penelope did not cry on JJ s shoulder and neither did the opposite happen
Then , one day exactly one month later you were gloomy
The team almost held an interrogation to find out why
Turns out your boyfriend and you had just had a super intense fight that ended up in yelling
They were quick to offer you to spent the night with one of them
Or they could book a hotel room for you
You declined saying you need to solve this out
This went on for a long of time
The weather became worst day by day and you were the first one on the team to wear a long sleeved shirt
They didn't think much of it
Your mood was drastically changing , your once bubbly and happy personality disappearing
They were all extremely worried but they didn't know what could have caused it
' Do you think it's that boyfriend of theirs?'
Morgan asked once . They all appeared worried at the thought
JJ was sent to ask you about your relationship but you quite convincingly talked in excitement and contempt about it
They were obviously worried sick ,but could do nothing about it , since they had no idea what the problem was
When they were all out together , Hotch received a call by you
You were crying and stuttering your words
' Hotch' you breathed out
' y/n? Where are you?what has happened?'
He asked and all the others gazes fell on him , their faces twisting in confusion
' I -uhhh I am on my apartment. He has left but I'm hurting a lot. Please come help'
You had said. Calling Hotch was a conscious decision since he was definitely a safe person to you and the whole team.
While Morgan could beat someone up easier and Emily was a very violent person when needed , Aaron just had this energy that he gave off.
He could protect you and you knew it
They all hoped In two cars and were to your in no time.
You were lying on the floor sobbing , with blood around you
Spencer was the one to check up on you , covering your wounds
While JJ called the police
Morgan along with Penelope were frozen on the doorway
And Aaron was right by your side pushing your hair out of your face and whispering in your ear
You were badly hurt
The paramedics arrived and Spencer rode the ambulance with you.
Penelope and Aaron followed with their car while the other three remained on your apartment
They decided to clean it up, JJ bringing the chemicals to remove the blood , while Morgan angrily scrubbed the floor
' How could he? '
Whispered Emily enraged
Then they heard keys on the door
' Honey I am so sorry for what happened, but look I brought you flo-'
A man entered the apartment and appeared shocked to find your colleagues there
Morgan had risen up staring at the man with deep hatred in his eyes
Let's say that the man returned to his house with a lot of bruises , a bunch of threats and two days later his computer caught a virus
You were in the hospital, getting better
Penelope was in the chair besides your bed working something on her computer
Once you were woken up and not high, you received a lot of hugs and sweet words
When you could finally return home they all sat you down . You knew this conversation was coming
' We want you to feel comfortable telling us about things that are going wrong in your life '
Hotch had said his voice and characteristics unnaturally soft.
' Why didn't you tell us?'
JJ wondered and you had no acceptable answer
The day ended in a lot of tears and hugs.
You quickly returned to your workplace where you were greeted with a cake that had wobbly written on it ' welcome back'
Thay would always remind you to be careful in the field for at least a month.
Bau x reader : how they first meet
Warnings: nothing really , kinda awkward (?)
Summary: you had just joined the bau , already familiar with some of the members of your new team
Note: this is meant to be written to a gn tone , but since I identify as a female and use those pronouns , I might have made some mistakes. If there is anything to this or any other of my stories please inform me
Penelope Garcia
You had just been informed that you were accepted to became a part of one of the most elite teams in the fbi. The behavior and analysis unit.
You were told that you were to became a member in two weeks , since they needed to file some paperwork
That some night you received a message that read:
Hello, heard you gonna join the team! I'm Penelope Garcia the teams analyst
So you and Penelope had been chatting a long time before you met almost any other member of the team
Aaron Hotchner
Being in he office as long as he did , it was natural that he was familiar with most of the important agents. Same thing happened with you
He had met you maybe twice or three times already
Once when you had just joined the fbi and he was a low level agent back then that had been tasked to shaw you around and help you with any problem you may have had
He had assured you that you could call him if you needed any help ,but you never did
The next time he had met you was around two years before you were to join the team
It was in an official fbi meeting. He was one of the first agents to arrive and when you entered the room , your face shined
You went right on him , expressing your happiness to be seeing him and all the typical stuff, before lightly chit chatting
He had thought you were funny and quite amusing
Then on the meeting one of the agents spoke up saying something stupid
He turned to look at you with a ' really?' face and you almost burst out laughing
He felt comfortable around you
So when your name was on the ones on the new recruit list , he was quick to chose you
Emily Prentiss
Emily was known by a lot of names all around the world
So you an agent that had been to multiple countries , once happened to fall on her
It would have been a little awkward on your side because she was kinda your idol
She had been the agent that had hopped around in most of the federal organisations and had the best of names with the most successful cases
So meeting her was unique for you
You though that she wouldn't remember you , but boy you were wrong
She had clear memory of who you were , since you had been the first one to show such an awe at her achievements
She didn't know who you were until she heard Penelope talking to JJ about you
JJ
JJ met you the morning that you were to join the team, since she had offered to help you navigate your way throu the place and also fill you in
But this was not the first time she heard of you
Penelope had been talking about you , how funny you were and how she thought that you would be an excellent addition in the team
She showed you around , unable to not notice the way your lips curved at the place around you
A slight smile you were trying to hide behind a serious persona
She completely understood why Penelope perceived you as a good addition to their little family
You were easy going , charming and bubbly a little pep on your step
She couldn't not notice how you sent Gotcha little smile and a cute wave
In hers and your surprise , he offered you a timid smile too
Derek Morgan
The man™.
The moment you entered the room and jj told them who you were , he was on his feet , a strong hand extended as to greet you
' Derek Morgan '
He'd say in his deep voice
Everyone had at least an idea about you , through Penelope, except for him somehow
He quickly noticed your slightly fidgety hands and the way your eyes skipped in between everyone
Once he had his moment , Penelope rushed in
' I'm so sorry my sweet chocolate thunder , but you can't keep my friend away from me'
She told him and he stared in shock as Penelope hugged you and you instinctively hugged back
Spencer Reid
Spencer was the last one of the bunch to meet you
The whole time you were interacting with the team he stared at you his gaze analytical , his glasses falling downwards his nose every few minutes
Once he understood that the energetic part was over , he figured it would be a good time for him to meet you
' I'm Spencer Reid ' he'd say , extending his arm
You had looked at it started out , throwing a quick glass at an equally confused looking Penelope
' i- uhh, you don't have to shake my hand I was already told that's not your thing'
He felt seen at this comment of your shooting at his blond haired girl a grateful smile
He decided right then and there that he liked you
Bau x reader , where the reader is a little bimbo
Yeah so , I didn't really like this one and it is small , but here it is ig
Warnings: nothing really , some cat calling(?)
Summary: you are a bit naive and the bau kinda lives you about it(?)
They all had a lot of questions
How could a person like you end up in job like this
Don't get me wrong, you were good at your job and all helping them out
You were exactly stupid
You just were a bit- naive
You would be out with any of the team members, and someone would cat call you
You just couldn't understand that this was derogatory so you'd smile at them
If you were with Morgan ,Hotch or Emily except the person to be slightly threatened to never speak you way again
If it's Pen , Reid,Rossi , or JJ they would give the person a nasty glare
In the crime scenes they always wanted to remove you from there , but you somehow had no problem with that kind of thing
I don't know why but I think that especially Hotch would love a bimbo reader
Maybe it's the way you look up at him with those big eyes of yours , or the way your lips pout when you do t understand something
They all have cutesy nicknames for you them being ' darling , love , angel '
And a bunch of others
Expect to be SPOILED
And I don't mean just with gifts and all but also with hugs , forehead kisses and sweet gestures in general
Bau x reader headcanons
Warnings: yandere behavior , mentions of stalking, mentions of obsession, mentions of maybe a death or disappearance
Summary: you were in big trouble , somehow catching the teams attention like that
You joined the team when you had just finished university
When Aaron first saw you , box in hand , fixing your stuff in your new office , he knew
You had a bunch of cute stuff on your office and that's what first caught Penelope's eyes when entering the room
She had of course done an extensive search on you
Instantly and cheerily introduces herself
You greet her obviously matching her tone
The whole team is OBSESSED with protecting you
At like unhealthy levels
Penelope has hacked in all your social media and she is giving the other daily updates on you
Reid has studied all your habits so much that he knows if something is wrong by the way you walk or even turn a page
Aaron is your boss so that gives him easy access in your everyday life and a bit of control over it( that he doesn't overuse too much since he is a professional)
Emily has absolute banger real life stalking skills
Like she'd know all your program by heart and also inform the others of it , so they can check on you
She also let's Morgan know if someone has been annoying you too much or if they were flirting with you
And BOOM , that's how you never see that one attractive neighbor ever again
JJ is just perfect in making you talk
You seem a bit out of it and none of them can figure it out?
They sent her
The whole team is a bit paranoid , since they know how crazy people can get
They don't even realize they are obsessive and even if they did , theyd be ok with it , since it's you
You'd regularly finds things shipped on your door with little notes
Personal life? Never heard of her.
Your media presence is not safe , your diaries are not safe , your real life interactions are not safe
But I mean why would you ever want to hide anything from them right?
They are just acting like that because they want to protect you, you know. So be grateful

A Little Theory
It wasn’t that the egos were terrible people or anything. It was just that… they weren’t the most becoming.
Jackieboy Man was a so-called superhero with absolutely no powers whatsoever. Police saw him as more of a nuisance then a hero. People started to avoid interacting with him, wanting none of his “help”.
Marvin the Magnificent’s shows were so terrible very few came, the only ones who did only wanted to make fun of him, or criticize him endlessly.
People trembled when Dr. Schneeplestein walked into the room, aware of the many patients he had killed over the years. His wife couldn’t bear another death brought by her husband and left him to his troubles.
Chase Brody ran a channel that got more trolls and hate with each passing day. He could barely escape the failures piling up on him, from family issues to channel scorn. His embarrassed wife couldn’t stand his pathetic lifestyle and left with the kids following suit.
Four outcasts, with nothing worth redeeming.
When Sean McLoughlin first introduced his egos, he meant to have fun, making characters through satirical nonsense. They weren’t the best people, and frankly, he couldn’t care less.
But when life couldn’t bear to look in their direction, the fans did. The community couldn’t help themselves, there must have been something there. Perhaps it was Sean, fooling around but having so much fun dressing up and playing pretend, his bright blue eyes twinkling with laughter, his smile brighter than the sunniest day. Maybe it was sympathy for the green-haired beings with Sean’s face. But they saw something in those egos, that no one else, not even Sean, could see.
The changes came gradually, but Sean saw it every time he came to check on his creations. Jackieboy Man began lifting items heavier than all the egos combined, and scouring the city, taking out mob bosses that had been wanted for decades. Marvin’s shows became more successful, and he was able to make something of himself. More of Dr. Schneeplestein’s patients walked out of the hospital alive and healthy, rather than in a bag headed to the morgue. Chase’s trickshots were beginning to perfect themselves, and Chase was thriving on his new fanbase.
Sean began dreading the visits less and less, as he watched his creations’ eyes light up as each explained their day. There were hiccups, or course, but bonds were forming, and the egos had never been happier.
Sean couldn’t help the nagging thought in his head. Was this his community’s doing? Was their love and support for the egos the reason they were so strong and capable and happy now? Everytime he found a new post showing their love for an ego, the stronger the ego got.
A new suit for Jackieboy, and he became stronger and more capable. A sweet picture of Schneep, and another patient lived to see a new day. A drabble of happiness for Chase, and he got billions of likes on his newest video and a chance to watch his kids on the weekend. One fantastic design for Marvin, and little sparks of magic started to show in the magician’s hands. One little post was all it took, and the egos got stronger.
And then Ȃ̴̼͓̬͎͔̻̀̆́͋̈́̎̌̒̄ņ̵̢͚̯̩͕̙̯̟̞̥̉̈́͛͋̃̾̃̄̉͠ͅt̶̨̡̛̮̣̲̭̥̳̱͍̾̄̈͒͊͛̅̏̌̓̕͜͠į̵̛̛̦̪̎́͂̓͒͂͋́̀̐̑̕͘ş̴́̓̑͂̿͊̿̕e̶̡̨̛͈̜͕̣͍̬͔̣̲̾̓̓̌̄̈́͋̊͊̎̔͝p̸̢̢̡̮̹̮̝̻̠͇̝͙͎͌̀͐͋͒̉ͅͅt̵̼̦̩̳̀̒̀̈́̏͗̎͐͊͑͘̚͠͝î̵̗̮͗̂͋̓̒́̌̕c̸̫̲͕̬̝͇̬̼̀̿̓̅̀͌͆̓̈̽̒̚͘̕ę̵̧͙̣̻͔̳̽̿̈́͑y̴̯̙͍̤̻̿̒͑e̶̡̨̛̦̻̮͕͇̓́͆́̔ showed up. He snaked his way into the egos’ lives, bent on destroying them and their world. Dr. Schneeplestein became the first doctor to find when someone was attacked by Anti. Jackieboy’s mission was less about helping the city, and more about protecting it from Anti. Chase’s bad thoughts returned, and he began practicing using real guns, hoping it would protect his family from the monster that haunted his dreams. Marvin had bursts of real magic, and he used them to track down and fight the glitch terrorizing the city.
If it was the community’s love that brought strength to the egos, then it was also their love that kept Anti alive. Many of them didn’t consider Anti to be a huge threat, and it was all in good fun to play with a villain.
But Sean knew of Anti’s power. Enough support from the community, and Anti could take their world by storm. He hadn’t thought much of it when he first brought Anti to life, but when he came to the egos’ world after that fateful Halloween, he realized just how much of a threat Anti really was.
And so he began fighting in his own way. He did his best to ignore Anti entirely, hoping the fans would back off, and Anti’s power would weaken. But the fans made sure Anti stayed alive, and from that point on, a war was waged.
Anti’s support vs the love for the egos. An unstoppable force versus an immovable object. The villain versus the new heroes. Sean did all he could to help the heroes succeed, from reblogging fanart to holding polls excluding Anti.
Maybe it was that poll that sent Anti off the deep end. Because since that day, things only got worse.
August 3rd, 2017. Sean found he couldn’t get into the ego’s world. He tried his best to open the door, but to no avail. Anti had discovered another foe, by the name of Jack. And the glitch was not pleased.
On the other side, Dr. Schneeplestein fought a losing battle, trying to wake his friend up. Chase could only watch in tears as his best friend slipped into a coma, and Dr. Schneeplestein disappeared.
While Sean couldn’t enter, he could see what was happening. Chase prevented his world from finding out about Jack, putting on a smile and running both channels. Jackie and Marvin tried in vain to find the good doctor, but there was no trace of him.
Jackie went missing next. Sean tried playing as the hero in a new video, but not even his playthrough could bring the superhero back. Marvin’s magic was now the only thing protecting him and Chase from Anti’s persistent attacks.
Sean knew it would be insensitive, but he could feel the new ego’s presence nagging at him, and besides, maybe Chase and Marvin would like a new friend.
For the first time, an ego was made from pure, elated joy, rather than satire. Jameson Jackson graced the moving pictures with his charm and exuberance.
Naturally, Anti was furious. Furious at “Jack”, who, despite being a coma, created such a happy and kind character. On Halloween, of all days! His day! The glitch let his fury show that Halloween, and Jameson Jackson suffered the consequences.
The community balked at welcoming the gentleman from the 1920’s, fearing him to Anti’s plaything or even the glitch himself.
Sean calmed them down, welcoming Jameson as his new ego. Most of the community quickly fell in love with his cute and quirky mannerisms, but the rest still feared him to be evil. While Jameson sure didn’t show it, it broke his heart every time someone accused him of being with Anti.
Marvin and Chase were sceptical to welcome the new ego, but seeing how much being doubted and feared hurt the dapper gentleman, they quickly took him in, deciding that if Jameson wasn’t with Anti now, he would be if they continued to fear and isolate him.
Anti, on the other hand, couldn’t let go of the fact that some considered JJ to be evil. Even Sean played around with the idea. Finally, he decided to act. When JJ was alone, with the others on tour, Anti kidnapped him, intent on making a puppet out of him.
JJ’s disappearance crushed the last two egos. Marvin spent hours searching for the glitch, but he found his powers faltering. Chase looked into it, and realized that JJ wasn’t the only ego not trusted. They were all under fire, Marvin especially. Chase never brought it up with Marvin, but the magician found out soon enough. Not unlike JJ, he did his best to hide his pain.
May came, and Sean couldn’t stand his egos suffering. It was honestly starting to get to him too. So he acted in his own way. Dressing like the doctor, he posted a new video and picture of Schneep.
The fandom took it as a sign that the doctor was alive, and their love certainly brought good news to Marvin and Chase. Both could feel the doctor’s presence. Schneep was alive. They didn’t know where he was, but he was alive.
Disaster struck again, later that month. As Sean experienced with new games and possible storylines, some of the fandom began to suspect Chase of villainy. Was he with Anti? Did he kill his family? The stress of being Jack, along with the accusations, slowly chipped away at Chase and he began using alcohol as a coping mechanism. Anti made his move. With the vlogger drunk and off his guard, he quickly baited him into thinking his kids had been attacked, then spirited Chase away.
Now it was just Marvin left. He had to do everything now, from looking after the channel, protecting and caring for Jack, to surviving Anti. He was nothing more than a shell of the confident magician he used to be. Exhaustion and loneliness caused his magic to suffer, and yet, he persisted.
Sean did try to enter the realm again, but other ventures pulled him away from the world, and he found himself too swamped with his own thriving life to help Marvin. But seeing the magician so downcast broke his heart, so…
He tried another little trick. Ego Art Weeks, during the summer, when many artists weren’t swamped with work and school. The fandom celebrated joyously, showing passion and beauty for the egos.
One by one, Sean could feel their strength returning, despite being in Anti’s clutches. It let him know his creations, his egos, his friends, were still alive.
Marvin was a little scared at first when he felt his powers returning like wildfire. He didn’t know who was helping him, but he appreciated it. But, he could use a little more help…
When the weeks were over with, Marvin began to work. He hijacked the posts, leaving Anti’s marks all over them. A little sign, hinting at what had happened.
The community panicked, fearing Anti had attacked. Anti responded by spreading the fire and posting some fanart of him on Sean’s Tumblr. Sean was locked out of his account for a week as Marvin and Anti fought over the Tumblr.
As summer dies down, a war still wages. Marvin the Magnificent hangs by a thread, living a lie, protecting his friend, waiting for the glitch bitch to show his face again.
Antisepticeye persists but can never quite break his “puppets”.
They’re all alive. They’re all still out there.

With his feline mask resting in his hair, Marvin paced the room absentmindedly, one hand held close to his chest with his fingers twitching slightly as his focus was somewhere else, when Jackieboy Man suddenly peeked his head in the door.
“Oh, Marv, thank God I found you,” he muttered as he rushed closer, the urgency in his voice abruptly shaking the magician from his train of thought.
“Hm?” Marvin responded as he got his bearings again. Then his eyebrows furrowed with concern. “Jackie? What’s up? It’s… it’s not Anti again, is it?”
“No, it’s…” the hero answered quietly, his eyes falling away as he let out a bit of a sigh. “It’s Chase. He’s… feeling low again. It’s not good.”
“Oh, God,” Marvin said under his breath. “How bad is it this time?”
“He found his way into Doc’s whiskey stash.”
“Sh*t, really?”
“Yeah. Doc and JJ are with him– they sent me out to look for you. We should really…”
“No, no, of course,” the magician cut him off, already knowing how Jackie was going to finish. He nodded reassuringly. “Lead the way.”
