State Of Faces Au - Blog Posts
Mcc In State of Faces! Lets go!
Okay, so we all know Scott, the king, the myth, the legend himself, helps Shelby with her quaint and lovely boutique on the strips of an abandoned mall. He's living his best life and is a neat ol' designer and artist and sometimes vlogger. But let's pan over to this guy named Sterling.
Sterling. Yup. If you don't know, that's Scott. Hi Scott, how's your hero biz?
You see, not only is Sterling a renowned hero among the city, as famous as a celebrity and loves to act that way. Well, he's a great host, too, it seems.
Well, Host in the word that he runs a gameshow thats more akin to the Olympics. That's right! Sterling runs MCC, the monthly program hyped by everyone, and participated by civillians of choice!
Most, if not almost all, the participants are actually heroes, vigilantes, even villains and the occasional loyal civillian who can take no bullcrap from this place. You're rumored to be a villain? well are you a good sport that's the question. You a teenager? just make sure your school or guardian is aware of this or if Sterling MCC Gamehost will side eye your minor status if you're good for the views and willing to throw it down. The entire place is also regulated and they ban muse usage during the games.
They're all shuffled into colors, and a bunch of the city's major points and areas are used for the special games.
Oh, but How about Scott? He can't be a known player as Scott Major, but the host on the thrown as Sterling! WELL HE CAN, ACTUALLY! Thanks to the Noxcrew and multiple stage-crafted muse users here to cover as Sterling as Scott is down there having the time of his life trying not to fail horrendously and boost his friends.
Also, no one in the crowd know eachother's secret identities. Civillian identities, only! Sterling made it very clear that each one of them has that right and will be booted from the best gameshow night ever if they decide to be lil dox weasels.
Fun times for everyone!
Welcome to the Wandering Willow Boutique! Don't mind the hero brawl right outside, this dress would look amazing on you!
Someone suggested a dash of Nature Wives and I've got you covered! But I'll add in a long story short, too!
You see, the boutique is actually the only living establishment in this pretty damaged mall. It used to be really big and really crowded until a major fight took place within it, trashing the mall's center beyond work and making every owner freak out and leave.
On the outer skirts and less damaged places of the mall was this boutique/clothing brand called the Shroom and Loom, which was once owned by Shubble's mom until the whole thing. The outter skirts of the mall was then rendered safe and turned into a strip mall of sorts, but no one bought a place there.
Of course, Until Shubble took up the old boutique and roped Scott into business with her! They needed a lot of work and help, but a few friends and new people found their post about it.
One of them was someone named Katherine.
Katherine helped a lot with some funding and decoration, especially with a few flowers and helping choose some opening designs for the place! Strange, most of them are from Shelby's side of the book.
And just as strangely, Shelby gives Katherine a personally-made dress for helping out so much.
Y'know, Scott and Jimmy's relationship in this Powered AU is basically that they used to be hero partners but then Scott found out the guy wasn't a properly registered hero and was, therefore, an illegal hero/vigilante. Like 2 months later, The Wonderous Hero Sterling's chasing this dang bird across the entire city like a rabid ex and ranting about him to Shelby, who is very certain he really is a rabid ex.
I've had this AU in drafts for a long, long time. It's functionally a world I've been really wanting to build up properly and share, but so far it's only stayed on dms and small mentions to friends.
It's a super hero au that I've proxy named "State of Faces", for it was originally going to take place in an entire state but I fixed it onto a city now. I have two versions: Discord friends edition and the real reason I made it, The MCYT edition
The MCYT edition is what I'm very invested on!
I know that superhero aus are average but listen. Mine has Scott and Shubble own a boutique together. Scott is a major hero who does not use his muse in front of Shubble. Shubble is just the anxious real owner who bodyslammed a villain for threatening a child once.
