1920s Sorcerous Gotham AU Selina

[isawit]

[OOM: Weeks ago, Selina had a fortunate accident while on a job.]

Selina has set herself up at a booth, a variety of half-eaten snacks about her. Perches in her lap is a large book, a tome really, and she is doing her best to wrestle its secrets into understanding. In the shadows of the booth, one might detect the form of a cat, although since it is comprised of smoke and shadow, this may be hard.

"Ugggg, I need a break," she says, slamming the book closed and throwing it aside with no care.

"Perhaps greater care of the book might be prudent?" the shadowy voice of the cat says.

Selina scoffs. "This book has survived us stealing it and all that went wrong. I doubt I could hurt it if I tried."

Feast and Happy Hour of Lord Amuscat (Dragonball Super AU Amascut)

[death_gone_mad]

Shortly after Lord Amuscat had arrived in Milliways, a non-stop feast began in her honor, although no one really arranged for it to happen besides herself. The afternoon blended into evening and the waitrats brought out the finest foods of the multiverse. Evening faded into night and she ate and ate and ate, and she drank the finest and most tastiest and most stupor inducing liqours and the most knurd inducing coffee, after which she spent three hours standing on a barstool with her face pressed up against the Observation Window. And the feast continued, even though her hot food had grown cool and her cold food became distressingly warm. There was always fresh food and drink being brought out along with the fluffiest pillows for her to sit on. The night gave way to morning and noon was creeping on in when Lord Amuscat bellied up to Bar (although somehow she still didn't have much of a belly) to find out what other delights Bar could offer.

Bar offers a bill instead.

"You cannot seriously expect me to pay!" she protests. "Every second that I refrain from destroying this place is more than enough pay that bill a hundred times over.

A napkin with writing appears on Bar's surface.

"So if I destroy the bar I get to meet the Landlord? Sounds like a net positive to me." Lord Amuscat begins gathering hakai energy to give Bar a chance to clarify.

Which Bar does with another napkin.

"Well, yes, that would be unpleasant," Lord Amuscat concedes, letting the hakai energy dissipate. Another napkin appears, and Amuscat grumbles "fine, I'll do that."

After a while, the Happy Hour sign goes up.

AU Week 2017: Kid!Ibani Posts Part 2 OOM

[last_kallig]

Sooner or later, everyone gets sick.

"Chirrut doesn't often ask things of the Force, but as the fall edges its way into winter, he has been asking for one thing daily. He prays that this year, the winds don't come." (Warning for mention of past child harm.)

Baze and Chirrut have their first birthday after becoming Dads!

Ibani is finally, FINALLY, cleared for sparring much to the delight of her and her Dads!

How do you keep your Force sensitive daughter from being snatched up by visiting Jedi as a Padawan? You arrange for her to be somewhere else while the Temple has 'visitors'! Ibani embarks on her first ever field trip. Unfortunately, even in another time she's a magnet for trouble and weirdness. (Warning in the second link for a very vague spoiler for Ibani's future canon.)

AU week 2017: paleontologically accurate scientific genius

[so_many_crystals]

The door opens, and a form scuttles in.

...Oh. It's that guy again.

Yep, it's Doctor Dinosaur. As usual, he has lots of pointy teeth, several sharp claws, and two beady yellow eyes filled with megalomaniacal cunning. Also as usual, he has several miscellaneous containers and implements strapped to his back. Today they're a little harder to see, because he's also wearing a white lab coat, which he's thrown over the lot.

Unlike usual (except, for this week, it is the usual), he's roughly the size of a large turkey. And covered in red and brown feathers.

(That lab coat might have been stolen from a Little Junior Scientist Halloween costume or something.)

That's right: Doctor Dinosaur currently is, in fact, a paleontologically accurate Velociraptor mongoliensis.
