AU of the AU: Nightmares And Sweet Dreams
More fics from Forgotten Vows's early RPing days on tumblr -- but these are interesting because they basically serve as a "rough draft" to the fifth fic in the main "____ You" cycle, "Fixing You!" Not long after I started RPing Forgotten, I decided I wanted to do a plot with him and Alice going into his head and physically fighting off some of the remnants of Bumby's influence over him -- specifically, the fact that Bumby had gotten him thinking that all sex was evil, and that if he ever had lustful thoughts about Alice, he was just as corrupted. To set the scene, I wrote up a few nightmares for Victor to have in the days before me and my Alice at the time got started. The first was more of a general "what if things had gone differently in Moorgate" dream, the second a first draft of what became the end of Bumby breaking Victor to his will in "Forgetting You," and the third --
Well, the third definitely captured the "sex is evil" message, that's for damn sure.
Fortunately for Victor, the plot went well, and the corruption in him was defeated. To celebrate, and end the plot on a happy note, I did one "sweet dream" mirroring the first nightmare. He really earned it after all he went through. And it was around this time that I started seriously planning out how to write up his backstory, aka the Forgotten Vows Verse...
So yeah. These fics aren't technically canon to the Verse, but they're a heck of a lot closer than "Rabbit Hunt." I'm skipping the second nightmare since it's just dialogue, and damn near identical to the scene in "Forgetting You," but the first and third nightmares and the sweet dream are here for your enjoyment. So, enjoy!
