Attacked by a Plot Bunny

Summary:

Please keep in mind that I am brand new to these fandoms so my knowledge is limited to You Tube videos, Tik Toks, and AU stuff. I also wrote this out like a week ago and did not know that Hua Cheng started off as a human until today. I'm not even a writer and I've read enough to know that world building is not my forte but this just wouldn't leave me alone! Why did my brain do this to me...

Here's the driest of bare bones summary: Hua Cheng, Luo Binghe, and Wei Wuxian are brothers who're half-demon half-human, their biological parents are whoever you want them to be, and all sorts of other details are open ended 'cause no..... there're too many possibilities and I don't want to think about this anymore. Just wanted to get this plot bunny off my chest and put it out there for other people to adopt it: swap out the fandoms, add or replace main &/or side characters, isekai them, and just go nuts if ya want. The way I have this set up legit anything is possible and now I just pictured Alucard as their crazy-some-times-doting uncle who shows up once in awhile to take a break from the Hellsing world/verse. STOP IT BRAIN, I'm going to stop typing the summary now before it tries to pop out another bunny.

Notes:

It all started here , I am the pinned comment.

If you decide to use this AU idea I only ask that you link it in your summary or a note because my main goal/hope is to spread this idea as much as possible to help inspire other writers that may or may not be having writers block and/or just want new ideas to use and go from there, help expand what they already have, or make something else altogether.

PS: I was gonna request that the inspired stories be labeled as gifts to me since it'd be way easier and more organized to just let those interested browse through my gift page where they can see the tags and summaries if they're looking for something specific. But I changed my mind since it I don't like how pretentious it feels, I just couldn't think of an easier way to give (share?) credit to the works inspired by this thing ^^

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Here's the gist of it; all three of them are half-demon half-human but because Luo Binghe and Hua Cheng were born in the demon realm their demon blood was more dominant, which allowed them to use their resentment/demon energy more easily and with less (or no) issues. However, when their mother was close to giving birth to Wei Wuxian/Ying(?... I noticed that people alternate) political unrest was rising and assassins were popping up. So, she had to give birth to him in the human realm and entrust him to Changze and Cangse ( these two ) that're relatives or friends/acquaintances of the family to keep him safe/hidden. As a result, his human blood was more dominant causing the resentment energy to hurt him while trying to awaken/draw out his demon blood to make it more dominant when he started using demonic cultivation. Basically, his body was tearing itself trying to restructure on a molecule level that went soul deep. After he died the first time, Hua Cheng found his soul to bring him home but it was damaged and in so much pain that he had to make Wuxian fully unconscious so that he could recover properly in a safe place over a long period of time and without suffering. Of course, Wei Wuxian gets brought back to life and when Luo Binghe and Hua Cheng find out they're just like: "What the fuck?! We just want to see our baby brother!" triggered. I'm gonna wrap it up with their family reunion is post canon stuff, Wei Wuxian has his original appearance/body again, and his demon blood doesn't hurt him anymore since it's now fully awakened and he's on par with his brothers power-wise for three reasons 1; he died a second time freeing his soul from it's unintended body, 2; his soul is fully healed, and 3; his family helping him get used to the demon realm and improving his powers via training. Shenanigans follow suit with a lot of fluff and minor sadness.... very minor, 'cause the parents are sick of their kids being in pain lol

Luo Binghe - His job as Demon King is to naturally over see the kingdom/his territory and all the political stuff that entails, not to mention dealing with all the day-to-day conflicts that may or may not occur.

Hua Cheng - His job as Ghost King is to make sure that souls go where they are supposed to, he's basically Luo Binghe's right hand but due to him being equal in power (if I'm wrong please correct me, I'm new to these fandoms plus AUs... so, yeah) and status he earned the title Ghost King. Also, there's no way just one person can oversee/keep track of so many subjects.

Wei Wuxian - His job was/is to be the one to gather intelligence and keep tabs various individuals, locations, businesses, and more. He's also, and obviously, the easy to get along with social butterfly so it ties in to his job but he also serves as a buffer in political talks so like if Luo or Hua is either too blunt, too honest, or something Wei smooths things over and/or swiftly changes the subject and distracts the "offended" party with a random fact and/or compliment to steer things back in to their favor/benefit.

Bonus info: Luo Binghe and Hua Cheng being sent to the human realm is part of their education such as: learning things they can't in the demon realm (i.e. compassion, forgiveness, love, etc.), simply growing up (demon version of teen years/child hood? I'm graspin' at straws), figure out what they want to do with their lives, and get an idea of how they want to run the kingdom when it's their turn to rule. Also, so that it matches, I picture the demon realm being like the one in I Was Born as the Demon Lord's Daughter but my version of the demon realm is gigantic and has doors/portals to other worlds, with that being said Luo Binghe's, Hua Cheng's, and Wei Wuxian's canon stories take place in the 3 different versions/worlds of the human realm. To clarify, the demon realm has way more resentment/demon energy just floating around in the atmosphere and environment than the human realm allowing their demon blood to be more dominant while the human realm has the opposite affect.

Notes:

I started typing this stuff at around 10 am and it is now after 4 pm so my respect for actual writers has increased tenfold. Doing the summary, beginning & end notes, and tagging were a nightmare! Not to mention double checking everything so that it all still makes sense. It took so long to do the Hua Cheng/Xie Lian tag, Xie Lian was easy but Hua Cheng was just UGH since I knew what he looked like but he apparently has more than one name so getting that sorted was frustrating.

Fun fact: I've rewritten my beginning and end notes so many times. (sarcasm) Being socially awkward is just so much fun and bland text just makes it all better (sarcasm) :D
