Weirdest/most specific headcanons?
(Anonymous) 2014-08-19 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)Doesn't even have to be a firm headcanon, "what if?" possibilities are great too!

Re: Weirdest/most specific headcanons?
(Anonymous) 2014-08-19 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)But he doesn't know how. He's never known any good people before. That's why he bankrolled the Avengers and gave them his mansion, because he wants to hang around good people and try to do what they do.
Alcoholism is a great metaphorical problem for him to have, because it really is one day at a time for him. Every day he has to get up and NOT try to take over the world. He has to resist the urge to say things like "The petty-minded fools! I'll show them! I'll show them all!" Sometimes he relapses.
Proof: the character has had to be LITERALLY rebooted from backup more than once because he turned into an evil shadow dictator.

but yES omg i can see meowth climbin into brock’s bed upon having a nightmare and thinkin brock’s asleep so he tries to be super sneaky, like very carefully curling up beside brock. but suddenly brock whispers “did you have a nightmare?” and meowth JUMPS REALLY HARD and then just kinda breaks down bc he’s just a bundle of nerves at that point, and he tries to explain the nightmare to brock but he’s stammering and whimpering in between words, and brock lets him rant until he seems to be calmer, and then brock just kinda gently comforts and shushes him and pets him until he finally dozes off again ;;www;;
Loki’s favorite movie is The Birdcage.

Castle/Firefly:
- In my head canon, Castle takes place in an AU, and all the stuff the supposedly insane time traveler said was true, except he wasn't a time traveler but rather a Seer, like River. The world goes to shit, eventually resulting in a mass exodus. Alexis is actually the ancestor of both Mal and Kaylee, making them fourth cousins once removed.
On the other hand...
The Hunger Games/Firefly:
- I'm torn on this one; one version of my head canon says Panem is a predecessor to the people who leave for other planets, and unfortunately some of the original District 13 ideals take over, forming the alliance before anyone realizes what's happening - except the Browncoats, who remember exactly what happened last time. Alternatively, Panem is actually what's left of Earth That Was, and the Capitol is basically what's left of the alliance on, well, earth.
The Hunger Games/Harry Potter
- The Hunger Games takes place in an AU where Voldemort actually won, and Panem's what's left of the muggle world. Some wizards on the "good" side joined the Capitol, which is how they can do "mutts" and stuff, except they were so screwed up by the war they weren't much better, in the end. The wizarding world is pretty much extinct now too - someone did manage to finally defeat Voldemort once and for all, but it took so long there's hardly anyone left.

Also, one summer I spent an extremely boring internship filing and working out in excruciating detail how Wikus Van de Merwe from District Nine and Murdock from the A-Team movie could be the same person.

Re: Weirdest/most specific headcanons?
(Anonymous) 2014-08-20 01:28 am (UTC)(link)Albus Potter gets sorted into Slytherin and becomes friends with Scorpius Malfoy. They set out to rehabilitate Slytherin's reputation, along with a muggleborn girl who gets sorted into Slytherin as well and is quite satisfied with that, thank-you-very-much.
Daphne Greengrass ended up marrying Gregory Goyle, so Scorpius has a couple of siblings on his mother's side; namely a pair of twins in the same year. Their names are Vincent Goyle and Victoria Greengrass. Vincent's a big sweetie, while Victoria's more shrewd, but they're still friendly in general.

The Actual Headcanon:
The reason why Asgardians look so much like humans? That's actually what they are. Specifically, they are humans who originally came from WAY into the future - like, near the end of the universe future.
Humans managed to survive all the way to the end of the future - due in large part to a variety of experiments that basically made the entire species superhuman (which is why Asgardians are stronger and hardier than humans, live longer, etc.). Once they reached that point, though, they realized that even they couldn't survive the end of the universe.
So, they pooled all their resources to send as much of themselves as they could as far back in time as possible - either around the birth of our Sun or the birth of Earth, start of life on earth, somewhere around that time span (which is to say, the last few billion years).
That's why Asgard is basically just a giant floating city - that was all they could bring back that far.
But - they, and/or humans, continued to evolve and move in, in that there were slight differences to "history"/the universe because of time travel, so this time when they evolved/experimented on themselves/etc., which is why 'this' time at the end of the universe, the humans had evolved into another species (say, dwarves), and they did the same thing - hit the end of the universe, come back, and repeat ad nauseum. This happened over and over again, each time a different 'species'/version of the species (frost giants, fire giants, etc.) hitting the end of the universe and coming back.
The thing is, they all keep coming back to roughly the same point in times, so though some of the species are tens or even a hundred billion years older than others, they all seem to be the same age.
But the reason why no one knows/realize this weird recurring time travel thing - is because within seemingly a short time of appearing in the past again, Asgardians started seeing a flood of other species from the future, over and over and over again. They realized they left the door open to a universe-wide resource drain if this happens infinitely. So, they started destroying all records of this happening, all methods of time-travel (and made further research into time travel, one way or another, impossible), erased all traces of these choices from history, and either got the Elders/leaders of other species to do the same or they basically took care of it themself via espionage, war, etc.
Incidentally, the Celestials and other ancient, powerful beings from the universe' history are some iterations of future weaponized persons gone rogue - these future people's equivalents of Jaegers or supersoldiers who went rogue/left their creators to become their own thing.
The Infinity Gems? Around six of the jumps involved condensing all the energy that was left of the dying universe and using it as a power source to come back, with the gems being what's left of those. Actually, there were probably more than six, but the others were burned out completely - these six are just the ones that survived. They are each literally an entire universe in a gem/box/whatever - the traces of a dying universe, but still an entire universe.
Of course, the elimination process was still not absolute - the Ragnarok cycle is a leftover trace of this history that made it into Asgardian mythology, and thus humanity's version/understanding of Asgardian history. But by and large, after hundreds of millions or even billions of years of this (and assuming that even the oldest-living species only live for five or ten thousand years max), it's pretty much gone.
The Dark Elves were the last generation/species/civilization to hit the end of the universe and then come back. They had - through the paradoxical nature of time travel and temporal physics - felt the early affects of Asgardians getting rid of time travel and somehow preventing further civilization-wide universe-spanning time travel from being developed again. It took them much, MUCH longer than anyone else to get to that point, to the point they just had to adapt to a very dark universe. And, they couldn't go as far back as everyone else did - they were only able to come back to about five or ten thousand years ago, instead of a few billion years ago. Malekith had been a very, VERY young child when he was born in the future in the Dark World, and when he and his people were brought back into the past, he and everyone else his age didn't know or realize that what they were doing was time travel.
Some Asgardians and other species Elders/wise-people/etc., seeing this new time travel method appear again - after spending billions of years getting rid of it - basically went in and destroyed so much of the Dark Elf civilization. Namely, they targeted all the information repositories, historical records, etc. - and then they (or at least some of them) went overboard and started killing off the older Dark Elves who remembered/knew they were from the future. However, since the younger elves/not all the elves knew, they were left alive.
That's why Malekith thinks of "light" as poison - the universe of light literally killed most of his people.
And this entire bizarre headcanon that I've never actually written out before until now is why so many alien species look humanoid - they are actually distant descendants of humans.

(Anonymous) 2014-08-20 02:16 am (UTC)(link)(I used to say Marshall grew up to be Young, but not even my head could wrap around that head canon o'discrepency.)
Re: Weirdest/most specific headcanons?
(Anonymous) 2014-08-20 02:21 am (UTC)(link)For some reason, I find this both hilarious and completely unavoidable as a headcanon, to the point where I forget that it's not canon (probably because we never got a satisfactory explanation for how the Animus works, so my own made-up version stuck).
Bonus: Desmond, having no prior and very little non-urgent experience with the Animus, has absolutely no idea this happens. Sixteen, however, got a much more in-depth explanation, and takes great delight in informing a mortified Desmond of this come Revelations.
I am so mature.
