Reblogging this bc I just have too much to say for a comment

I think a way to incorporate powers is still utilizing the spread of compound V except it was first experimented with by being released on the poorer districts before selling to the richer/those more known for winning and training for their games. Marie could be that second or 3rd generation in her district that DID gain powers, and you could even do something with making compound V either skip certain kids/generations or it is simply very frowned upon by the district due to the fact they are the result of experimentation. Generally unhappy with how they were used as lab rats amongst other things and it reflects poorly on those who were born with those powers.

In terms of Marie’s brutality I definitely also think she is very good with bows but is especially talented with knives possibly because her father had been a butcher and she’d taken up on that line of work. He could have also doubled as someone who helped with prepping bodies for funerals or could have been involved in some underground work that had him taking out organs in order to get income for his family and when Marie catches him he decides to start teaching her about it. This could in part be why Marie is so good with making a show of her murders as she both knows how to silently and swiftly kill someone AND knows how to get someone to dramatically bleed out. Her knowledge on how weak and vulnerable the human body truly is in situations where it isn’t protected is what makes her so deadly outside of just the use of her powers. (This also gives me the idea of one of her nicknames being bloodhound, however that’s only in the case of her being the kind of person in her first game that consistently hunted her victims.) If you were to go that route you could have it be where Marie HAD to hide her powers to avoid discrimination or worse. The games could also act as sort of experimentation to test the limits, weaknesses, etc. of those they’ve enhanced and how they fare in battle with or without training. And to control the population of powered individuals for their own peace of mind while favoring the more powerful just for their own safety in the idea that friendship and pampering will get them own their good side.

I could see Marie still killing her parents in this au, and it could even be taken a step further where Annabeth had to help her cover up the murder and pretend it was a freak accident, which did a good deal of damage to their relationship. Marie taking Annabeths place in the name pulling could also provide either a build or decline in their relationship as well considering Annabeth has the potential to be solely bitter towards Marie or holster a good deal of survivors guilt.

I could totally see Neuman being a former victor and mentor to Marie. Sort of like haymitch except she’s far more brutal and generally seems like she was born and bred for that kind of environment in Marie’s perspective. She’s just sort of intricate and layered in a way Marie doesn’t quite understand when she starts out but quickly comes to the same realizations Neumann once had, except she decides to take a different route with it that wasn’t just rolling over and accepting every gift thrown her way until she was a capital favorite who went on to mentor another.

Emma being a stylist for Marie makes a LOT of sense to me, and while she’s still somewhat aware of the capitals cruelty I think due to being raised in the capital she still has a layer of ignorance that comes with being at that level.

Jordan I think should be a 2 time victor for the sole purpose of reflecting how their capabilities were consistently pushed away in light of somebody else. Them “not being marketable” could have to do with their attitude and general distaste with most people that weren’t their mentor or friends. However they do have a good following that mostly has to do with sexualizing them (due to their power) opposed to really caring for them, which could add onto the reason why Jordan generally doesn’t like many sponsors or people from the capital outside of what they’ll give them. I think due to the obvious trauma they’d receive from the games amongst the manipulation of the capital they likely struggled with addiction for awhile as well.

I totally agree with Luke being the golden boy, however I think there’d be a game (possibly in the fic) that ends up getting rigged to have Luke and Sam paired together. Of course this could lead to Luke’s death, and I also think Sam’s prior protection against being put in the games could possibly double as the time he spent with Emma whenever he was in the capital during the games or with Luke.

As for Cate I think while she is Luke’s stylist she doubles as someone who’s in on the game making, however she chooses not to speak about it or inform anyone of it. Her being Shetty’s adopted daughter could be somewhat of a secret that she’s kept and guarded or it could be common knowledge while Cate pretends to be very disconnected from the woman and had only been adopted because she was, in a way, just a publicity stunt. The poor orphan child with a tragic story adopted by Shetty, a woman in power who’s just so kind! That kinda shit. If Shetty isn’t president, she’s definitely high up there and is the FIRST sponsor Marie gets after Shetty sees her utilize her power.

Andre I think could be aware of Cate’s affiliation and true relationship with Shetty, and because of this Cate is able to get intimately close with Andre to the degree she ends up cheating. OR. The throuple route <<33 bc I love them being poly. I think Andre doesn’t really have anything going for him maybe? Like yes his dad is trying very hard to shove him under his wing in order for him to be prepared to take his dads place when he’s gone, (and you could also have it where maybe Andre did still receive a power, but has been forced to hide it because his dad is scared of him getting pulled into the games) but he’s more focused on partying and being high or drunk all the time. I imagine he’s VERY checked out of reality and overall just. Has no stance on the imbalance between the districts and capitals aside from being like hey don’t be a dick, ya know? Just because I think even canon Andre has that rich kid attitude of knowing he could just throw it all away and run if he so felt like it and he’d be fine! Because he’s rich, and therefore set for for life. I think Andre could still sort of absently flirt with Marie but their relationship turns to hesitant friendship before rocketing towards very thin acquaintanceship due to Andre just being so. Ignorant. While Marie is hyper aware of the shit going on because she knows the hardship of living in a very poor district.

I can also see Marie and Jordan having the same situation as Katniss and Peeta in terms of them becoming the staple “star crossed lovers” as well. I think it’d be fun if Jordan and Marie ended up pairing together opposed to sticking with their teammates for whatever reason, or they’d already formed a small group and their teammates died. And the game in the fic could be the one where all the chars involved in the games meet and end up banding together much like they did in the movie where they broke the border.

edit; actually think Marie could be the eye opener for Andre and be where he starts to get all righteous n shit before getting shot down by his dad

begging someone to pls help me construct a gen v hunger games au ......... my brain is so dead from college but i might actually write while the roman empires are empiring

marie is a tribute (maybe 16 or 15), probably for a district who hasn't one in a long time, similar to district 12 in the books/movies. honestly, i do not know who would be her mentor or a former victor for her, so i do sort of see marie having to enter the games alone.

i don't think she's a volunteer or if she'd volunteer for her sister because i think i'd like to keep the complexity of their relationship and not speaking but now that i think of it, i do see her volunteering for the sister she doesn't speak to anymore but still loves.

i'm not sure if this au will have powers, but marie would be skilled at long-range combat, she's good with a knife- fights like a street rat, fights like an orphan.

i'd imagine she gets the name bloody marie after murdering most of the tributes, always covered in blood (hence the name). or maybe in her final battle, we get the blood rain from catching fire, covering her and the other tribute in blood as they battle to death. trying to breathe and see as hot thick blood envelop them. i think that marie ends the battle slashing the throat and the tribute sputtering blood at her.

if not the blood rain, she slashes the throat and it covers her in blood. or she when she kills a tribute the blood gets everywhere. something like that.

if she doesn't have a mentor, for some reason, i can see emma as the daughter of a capitol member having to be the escort- but her quickly knowing the games for the cruelty it is and trying to campaign for marie throughout the games- oh or a stylist.

the others in this case... hm...

jordan li is a victor, they won a few games ago, they're probably a year older than her and was reaped when they were maybe 15 or 14. i feel like youngest victor would give them some clout. not sure how the shifting would work but who fucking cares its like year 2110?

i'm not sure how jordan would hate her, they might find her annoying, especially if she has no mentor to hold her back. marie's personality is spitfire and it's passion and she doesn't bother to act prim because she has no reason to think she'll live after this. she can try her hardest but she'll probably die.

luke riordan is a victor, he's definitely the finnick od'air of this au. he's the capitol's golden boy, what they don't know is he's planning the rebellion behind their back. i do see luke being a youngest winner as well, it adds to the appeal. probably has the same post-games treatment as finnick as well, he's appealing to the sponsors and won his game from the sponsors. while i'm unsure with marie, luke definitely volunteered for sam- had a whole "i volunteer! i volunteer as tribute". he made a deal with snow post-games to keep his brother out of the reaping bowl.

andre anderson is the son of a victor, his father works closely now with the capitol to make tech. andre is being looked at for a position in the capitol, maybe as gamemaker? not sure what to do with him.

cate is the adopted daughter of shetty, maybe shetty is the president or she has a high position. cate was luke's stylist maybe, i feel like cate would be a stylist.

shetty, like i mentioned before maybe is snow, if we want to contain this to solely the gen v cast. i'm struggling to come up with the president, maybe stan edgar. i wonder how newman falls into place here, she's definitely a sponsor for marie that's for sure.

anyways that's all. ihave so far lol

pov I’m walking past you and something drops and falls out of my pocket

#gen v #limoreau #mariejordan #jordan li #marie moreau #gen v fanfiction

[iminhiraeth]

No because Emma really went through that experience of meeting a boy you think is different only to end up realizing he’s just like every other guy and it’s DEVASTATING.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about it yet but I just think Emma wasn’t necessarily boiled down to being the “This isn’t who you are Sam 🥺” girl, I think this is just. A reflection of a part of Emma. I’m not sure how to put this, but I think she was just so hung up on wanting Sam to be good for her because she wanted to have that sort of love that wasn’t just exploiting her powers. Which is a reoccurring theme in both her platonic, familial, and sexual relationships. (Her mom, the girl she confessed to throwing up to use her powers, the guy she had sex with)

Thinking lots about Emma girl!! I think she’s so interesting because like. From a glance you’d think she’s the bubbly friend who’s just really sunshine and rainbows but in retrospect she’s actually pretty mellow and very insecure about herself and at heart is a people pleaser who forgives too easily. (Which also makes me think that she’s not used to getting an apology, and is instead used to being used and mistreated so much so that when Marie communicated with her it seemed to be very relieving for Emma.)

Anyways, if anyone wants to ask me about any other chars feel free bc I’m head full :]

hey limoreau enjoyers I am taking asks on Marie/Jordan situations for me to write up a lil drabble on :] I’m down for anything! I’ll also be using this to sort of test the waters on what I need to work on writing wise.

College is kicking me while I’m down so I’m gonna need a lil stress reliever in the form of Limoreau moments for the weekend

#gen v #gen v fanfiction #limoreau #mariejordan #jordan li #marie moreau

[iminhiraeth]

no because I also thought this and it reflects in the fic I’m doing, but since episode 7? I switched it over to it being more vague on whether or not they knew each other because when they’re getting thrown together in that one room one of them recognizes/name drops one of the other supes in there. I’ve started to assume the facility is bigger than it let’s on and they have controlled environments where the supes would interact with each other for one reason or another.

I definitely hope we see more on this though like I’m super curious as to how The Woods functioned!

also, just got to the scene where sam is talking about andy (the supe who died from the virus) and they way sam was talking about him like they were friends, i didn’t know all the kids in the woods knew each other? i just assumed they were kept locked up for years with no other interactions with other supes

Jordan

you are so gender. if you had any more gender u would implode. u try to keep people away by being cold / sarcastic but it only makes u that more attractive. deep down, u just want someone to be proud of u and tell u ur good enough..... a pretty girl mayhaps.....

just took the uquiz for what gen v character i'm most like (here's the link if u want to take it) and I GOT LUKE. i so thought i would get like cate or jordan but nope.

the literal description was: okay eldest son syndrome. u r kinda like if kendall roy had superpowers and pulled bitches. you put up this confident and succesful persona but are deeply sad. you prioritize family over anything else and would die for ur morals

why is this me? go away strangely accurate quiz ahhh

also if u do take the quiz, reblog with what u got!! im veryy interested.

Limoreau Fic Ideas

because I have a terrible case of brainrot, I’m going to be listing all my fic ideas that I may or may not one day do. Who knows! But I figured I could share the brain thoughts in case somebody else needs a spark of inspiration :]

And Lmk if I should do more!! I’d absolutely be down to, but this is just a lil test of interest for neow. (Would also 100% be open with getting asks for blurbs like this on certain AU’s or concepts :])

Supernatural AU

Instead of 2 brothers on the road hunting the supernatural it’s Marie and Jordan, who are legacies of their monster hunter parents and are having to work together after their parents gave them an assignment before suddenly disappearing. Bonus points if Marie is actually a vampire and has to keep it under wraps, or Marie was turned into a vampire the same night Jordan was turned into a werewolf because the two of them were way too brave and confident they could handle a hunt on their own at the age of like. 8 or 9. Caused a lot of tension ofc because their families are HUNTERS !! Could be with super powers still except those with powers are all hunters and it’s like. A semi underground society that’s like idk. Men in black type of deal.

AU with boxer!Jordan

This one I imagine less as professional boxing and more as a sort of fight club. Everyone meets at a location that’s given only a day prior so they don’t get caught bc this shit is illegal, and Marie is dragged out to one by Emma bc Sam sometimes participates to blow off some steam. Marie ends up being the one who makes sure Jordan is alright after fights bc! I also think they’re only allowed to be in their fem form for the fights. (Due to make form being invulnerable to attacks.) Also sort of secret society but majority students in God U find out about it if the circles your in deem you worthy. (Aka you won’t snitch.) Jordan probably really gets a kick out of it too because they don’t have to be perfect in that space, and fighting just gives them some time to not have to think about anything else. Their parents were likely very strict and although God U does have public training n shit for crime fighting students, it could be that there’s just a lot less rules for these fights n’ nobody is nitpicking their form so they don’t have to worry about looking hero worthy. Just some college kids fighting underground, and maybe there’s a thing about there being an after party that usually turn out to be the best parties on campus. 100% just an excuse to have Marie patching up Jordan n being all hot n bothered over how they look in a fight. Bonus points if Jordan starts training Marie too and she starts signing up for fights.

Camp Counselors AU

This one explains itself honestly. Limoreau being rival camp counselors and always putting their teams against each other or some shit. They have a tally of their wins and have some sort of bet going on. After like their first year every other counselor was like why don’t you two just fuck already we’re tired of watching you flirt. Bonus points if it’s them reuniting after having gone to that camp when they were kids n even then we’re like. SERIOUS rivals. They could not get along for the life of them, but maybe one of them moved n they stood in the parking lot that year wanting to hug but not knowing if they were even friendly enough for that. They miss each other, much to their surprise, but then like idk 4-5 years later they coincidentally (Jordan for nostalgia?? Or bc their friends were like we should do something random for the summer… N maybe Marie because Annabeth wanted to go to the same camp for the summer.) both chose to come back to be counselors n when their friends try to introduce them they’re like we know each other already. (Likely Cate, Andre, Luke with Jordan and Marie with Emma and Sam??) Their homies then bear witness to the most sexually charged banter they have ever seen n are like you two… hate each other?? Are you sure?

Pirate/Siren AU

Pirate Jordan….. Siren Marie….. Froths at the mouth. That’s it, that’s the AU. I have no further thoughts other than Jordan washing up on fantasy island n Marie is laying there sunbathing next to them all oh ur awake!! Jordan short existential crisis of being attracted to a fish n then being relieved when Marie can change into a purely human form with small differences. (Sharper teeth and nails, a pointed tongue, a little more cat-like pupils, and a sort of strange gait to the way she walks.)

Alternatively, for Pirate/Siren, it could also be Pirate/Succubus

Marie ending up separated from her family after landing in human territory, Eek! Maybe b/c they’re like.. fantasy land royalty and we’re trying to strike a deal with this part of human land but then BAM betrayal, and as they’re fleeing Marie somehow gets pulled apart from them n their like find ur way back!! We’ll send Emma to come help you!! Jordan on the other hand is in search for a treasure that’s located in fantasy creature territory, and is in search of another crewmate after one jumped board. Marie gets rejected at first, since Jordan does not recognize her to be a succubus at first bc maybe… she has some magical amulet from her parents that blocks that perception of her for her own safety. Nor do they recognize her as royalty b/c I think it’d be fun if Marie was sort of? A veiled princess, nobody truly knows what she looks like but they’ve heard stories of what power she inherited. (Thinking that royal lineages are the ones who are supes.) Anyways, maybe that areas guards see her n recognize something she’s wearing so she’s like fuck it I’m jumping on board anyways Idc if you rejected me, n maybe it’s Cate who’s like ur in, I don’t know why Jordan was being an ass. Fairy!Emma joins them too either right after seeing Marie get on board or she was the one to be like FUCK WE HAVE NO OTHER OPTION JUST HOP IN !!

Bonus points if Jordan and Marie save each other at least once, and there’s cute moments of Marie showing Jordan places that are off their map (magic areas with like, cute little fantasy animals n just beautiful scenery bc I love that shit.) Marie basically on the run with Emma, maybe there’s also a part of the plot line where Marie has to deliver something to some magical beast or she was just tired! Of being holed up in that kingdoms castle just bc of her powers. Honestly could end with them reaching the place n Marie n Jordan are like strange that this is the same place I was going. N then they keep walking on the same path n their like are we… going to the same place right now. Edit: Forgot to add that Jordan would also probably come from a royal line, along with Cate, Andre, Luke and Sam! (Luke probably abandoning his position as king for some reason that could be adjacent to the whole situation with The Woods where instead of a virus being created it was just. An experimentation on Sam to try and see if they could come up with what essentially would be Compound V)

Post-Apocalypse AU

You can guess how majority of this goes. Could be that Compound V was made a lot earlier but somehow mutated and not only infected Supes, but also infected humans, which made them into zombies. Supes powers are dwindled down exponentially but they’re still a lot more enhanced in comparison to human zombies. Maybe Marie is on her own and finally thinking she’s reached the end of her line but then Andre comes in n is like hey!! Come with me lol I have a group n you seem cool. Andre explains to her that they’ve been on the search for a safe-haven they’ve been hearing about, and Marie is absolutely wowed bc she didn’t know any talk of that. Jordan is obviously irritated bc they’re like Marie is just body to protect and another mouth to feed W’s he’ll just slow them down blah blah blah. The usual Jordan looking out for themself first and foremost, but veiling it as a group thing. (Thinking it could be because they lost Luke n Brink n they just. Can’t take another loss like that, n it sort of feels like they’re just trying to fill a gap if they let Marie in. And they’d rather not stick their neck out for some stranger.)

Journey is long, Marie and Jordan have their moments of bickering and absolutely not getting along at first but after they find each other awake at night, both awoken by nightmares, they have a conversation and make a truce. They still snap at each other a little because they’re learning how to navigate one another but they’re noticeably a lot more friendly n are able to make jokes with one another. The group is like DAMN FINALLY !! Got sick n tired of hearing them constantly arguing. (Can especially see this situation bringing out the differences in Marie and Jordan’s moral compass. I feel like when in this setting, Jordan is a lot more willing to let others die if it means keeping loved ones safe. A lot more violent and unhinged and generally just a little bit scary, whereas Marie is the one who tries to see the good in people first instead of second even now. She’s more empathetic to the fact these zombies were humans once too, which could attribute to maybe Marie losing Annabeth to the virus. (Thinking that in this AU, bc compound V was made earlier that Marie’s powers didn’t show up until the apocalypse had already begun and possibly her parents were just in the line of fire when she freaked on a group of zombies, n Annabeth ended up bit but didn’t say anything. Except she was extremely irritable, slowly grew more sick, and eventually Marie had to lock Annie up n tried so hard to keep her alive until she realized forcing Annabeth to live like this was just cruel.) Marie probably ends up learning her lesson after a group they encounter stabs them in the back after Marie had JUST advocated for them. Jordan initially is rlly mad n is all up in arms about it bc they told her! They fucking told her! But quickly comes around when they realize Marie is genuinely having a whole factory reset bc of this n it just. Changes her perception completely, n Jordan almost mourns the fact that Marie had to learn things the hard away n they can’t just. Protect her from everything all the time.

[iminhiraeth]

okay so hear me out. An AU where Marie never kills her parents but still has some tension in the fam because she’s a supe and they aren’t n maybe. She just doesn’t want to be a supe, and she would rather have just been regular shmegular human. (Maybe instead of her parents dying she explodes their pet dog, which is equally as tragic)

She gets accepted into God U, doesn’t know how to feel about it and BAM road-trip for self discovery or some shit. N she picks up the group (tm) after their car broke down and they were literally stranded. However just before this she meets Jordan at a gas station and they bicker about something stupid n so when she sees them with Luke, Cate, n Andre on the side of the road she’s like oooouuuu asking for my help now?

Road trip AU…. Road trip AU….. Maybe the road-trip is even all of them on their way TO God U bc like. They all live super far away for some reason when school is out and they aren’t in their dorms.

And ofc Emma has to pop up too because I love Emma n Marie friendship they mean so much 2 me.
