So bandana, I keep meaning to poke you to lock down any backstory about Anne & Porthos, since all we've got so far is that Anne is responsible for turning Porthos. Have any thoughts on the context? o3o
I had a few thoughts to consider: did we want them to know each other through Aramis or before Aramis? I doubt Anne is the type to turn someone for no reason - so do you have any ideas as to what the reason would have been (I'm guessing there's an Aramis influence going on here - like Porthos was close to dying and Aramis asked Anne to turn him, or Porthos himself did knowing the influence it'd have on Aramis... and if we're going the route of them knowing each other before Aramis, maybe Porthos was going to die protecting her or something and confessed to not wanting to die, not knowing what Anne was, and thus was saved by her being the best???????)???? Do we want them to have a sire-bond kind of shenanigans like we had going with FK back in the day (only less romantically charged, obviously)? What exactly is their relationship on their 'front oh no we're totally not vampires' - do they spend time together or it's more of a passing each other occasionally (I originally considered maybe him being her bodyguard? But I like the idea of Dorian being that better, just cause it encourages different CR combos)?
Those were a lot of questions lol anyway. (JL feel free to weigh in on this if you have any thoughts, too.)
For your others: To answer your thing to JL above, I don't think JL and I have anything totally hashed out for merthur aside from Arthur being a leader of sorts for hunters and Merlin being a stupid pureblood. So... yeah. I don't really have anything set in terms of how Arthur and Lancelot might match up in this AU but I'm down for anything? Obviously they would know each other - but idk if you wanted to make Lance one of Arthur's knights fellow hunters?
I am always down for threeway times do you know me have you ever met me I am the trash of the threeway shenanigans
THIS IS NOT A CRITICISM BY ANY MEANS BUT IT JUST OCCURRED TO ME THAT, BANANA, WE FUCKING MISSED OUR CHANCE TO MAKE EMMA AND ARTHUR TWINS. Next AU we're doing this okay. I dont' care what AU it is we're shoehorning that in, I'm putting this here for posterity /slams down gavel
Also feeding shenanigans between Robin & Porthos y/y?
