I don't remember making thess

Part two who are you letting do your top surgery

(YES I know Wilson is a ‘scientist’ and Loboto is a dentist but it was really fucking funny to imagine them. To be fair Wilson probably gave himself top surgery idk. Doc and Medic can undo death but they’re not licensed medical professionals. Don’t pretend Medic wouldn’t put something weird in you.)

I DID IT I DREW HYDE IN ALL HIS GLORY

Version without text

(flops on stage) i now present to you my very silly swap au,,,

essentially jasper is now the co-leader of the society who was bitten by a werewolf and is trying to hide it, jekyll is the uni student who got kicked out due to his experiments and then picked up off the streets, etc. jasper and rachel can’t communicate and jekyll and lanyon are living the world’s weirdest horror romcom you’ve ever seen. more info under cut hehe (feat. bad explanations and doodles)

in simpler terms, jekyll and lanyon swap narrative positions (?? is that the right term) with jasper and rachel respectively. (lanyons and rachels swap doesn’t technically work as well as Jekyll’s and jaspers does but shhhhh). Frankenstein becomes the mad scientist that attacks the society and moreau becomes jaspers idol.

longer explanation but WARNING!! it is 3am when i am typing this and i am terrible at explaining. it may be slightly incomprehensible.

so like jasper and rachel founded the society after jasper publishes his research and gets semi famous. two years before current events jasper is out on a research venture and gets bitten by a werewolf. he doesn’t want to scare rachel or the lodgers so he keeps it a secret (to his own detriment). flash forward to now and jasper gets a call to investigate a “creature” terrorizing the streets of london only to find hyde.

before jasper can process the dumpster man he is looking at hyde transforms back into jekyll. jekyll explains that while trying to prove his theory of spiritual alchemy at his university he may or may not have split his own soul. and got kicked out. and is now living on the streets.

jasper, not really knowing what else to do and kinda relating to the poor guy, takes him back to the society. he introduces his co-leader rachel, who pretty much keeps this entire thing up and running. (rachel and jekyll still become friends but she especially takes to hyde. that little brother shaped hole in her heart is still very much present!) then theres the lodgers (idk how they all swap) and then there’s lanyon, a university student at the society because it was mandatory for one of his courses. he is not enjoying it and would very much rather be breaking boy’s hearts back at school. lucky for him tho, there’s jekyll!

this goes about as well as you would expect. lanyon then spends the rest of his stay at the society trying to understand (and woo) the conundrum that is jekyll and hyde. it’s very fluffy and they learn to communicate like jasper and rachel in canon (yippee!)

unfortunately for jasper and rachel, they have been playing the “just friends” game for the last decade. im having a bit of trouble trying to flesh out swap rachel so i don’t really know if she’s in a lavender marriage like canon lanyon is or is estranged/divorced or just single but whatever the case is she likes jasper but thinks he just sees her as a friend while jasper is madly in love with her and is too scared to tell her. this problem has only worsened since jasper got bitten. everyone else tho is aware of how they feel about each other and are stuck witnessing their tortuously long slow burn.

(hyde and lanyon at some point probably come up with a scheme to try and get them to confess. it goes horribly wrong.)

so yeah. this au has been floating around in my head ever since i read the comic for the first time. it mainly came to be because of how well jasper and jekyll parallel each other and because i wanted to draw stupid fluff and older jasper lol.

if anyone has any ideas/questions/etc TELL ME!!!!! this is just a rough idea if you have a better concept go for it awhdvgevd

can we get lore on how elliot runs the establishment? especially elliots dad lore, and what he did when he was active and bussling as a kind of celebrity

he runs the pizza place with 2 paperclips and a dream.

staff come and go at inconsistent rates and elliot typically does not like to boss people around too much as that has come to bite him in the ass in the past. ( he does not like to take the manager role. )

so when i say 2 paperclips and a dream, i mean that he will run around and fill in the jobs that people fail to do or are just not doing, leading to orders coming out slowly as well as huge exhaustion on his part.

customer happiness is his highest priority but second to that is coworker happiness, so he often becomes a doormat so that people will just work and he isn't running himself too thin.

he likes to work there it's just.. tiring when he carries the place on his back.

as for his dad, mr builder does not run the place even though he is part of the establishment's namesake. mr builder went onto working in the dump formerly owned by the two unnamed founders.

elliot sometimes wishes his dad would come and help get more permanent staff into the pizza place but he also appreciates that his dad has worked hard in even building the place up and he's getting old.

.

when elliot was at the peak of his popularity dring the massive collaborations and features of the pizza place, he was often just there as the poster boy of the place. a lot of photoshoots and being the face of the establishment despite the namesake being his dad and uncle. he was a bit overwhelmed with the popularity and such but he was able to handle it.

i'll say that he's kind of happy that he's not a big hit anymore since it was stressful though at the same time, it meant it was harder to find a more consistent dedicated stream of staff to fill the place up.

he feels a little awkward seeing his face on old merchandise, a little awkward with a small pang of pride. feels he peaked early in life and its just a consistent safe plateau from here

I FINALLY GOT AROUND TO POSTING THIS!!!

Close up's under cut :D
