It’s getting warmer :]

Copy pasting this explanation of my magical strike au from a convo with @kyokyo866>:3c

_______________

So it’s a magical strike au set a little in the future, and Alfred is still the son of the big tech mogul that makes like, their worlds version of apple products

But Alfred controls a lot more than he let’s on, and behind the scenes he’s way more capable than he seems

He’s so driven for profit and the advancement of human kind, but in a way that’s very “robots will take over the human race so I’ll become AI and beat them to it” kinda way

His secretary/assistant arthur thinks he’s just an overacheiving child with big dreams, until he realizes that Alfred’s pet project has been subliminally mind controlling the population and implanting chips directly into their faces under the guise of social media and connectivity (its the stars on their faces lol, its like a phone that connects to your brain)

And Arthur calls him out on it and is like um? What the fuck are you doing? This has to be a human rights violation

And Alfred does a supervillain reveal and shows arthur he’s been modifying his body for months to become an AI supercomputer overlord type deal (he’s very dramatic) and has gone so far as to treat his body with prosthetics as they’re more reliable than flesh, in his own words

He then offers to connect arthur to the system, explaining that enlightenment will find him once their minds merge onto one perfect mainframe, and arthur fucking bolts out like what the FUCK

He meets Francis, a resistance head who lost his son to the stars early on in their development, as his son Matthew was a quality assurance tester at the company (mainly to feed info to his dad) and got some of the worst of the mind control

(Hes now Alfred’s right hand man, of sorts)

ANYWAYS its very dumb but I love retro futurism and transhumanism as a concept and robots excite me x

I did it :]

Just some bros x

The boy filled with envy
