#love and music au
Think I might have to do some retconning in Love and Music AU. I’ve been trying to figure out how Draal/Nomura would happen in that universe, but I realized I made things complicated by having Draal be a member of Aargh’s band. That makes him wayolder than Nomura, which doesn’t seem to vibe with how they’re presented in canon. Sooooo…
I’m now thinking she either meets him at school (I don’t think I’ve mentioned Nomura’s backstory on here yet, so the TLDR is that she applied for and won a full ride scholarship to Julliard’s vocal arts program courtesy of Janus Records) or she meets him…around? Somehow?
Maybe he’s part of Janus’ security detail, and they meet at an event? Maybe they meet through mutual friends in college? Is he even inthe music industry or, to keep with the idea of him trying to follow in his dad’s footsteps/earn his respect, does he do something super boring?
I don’t know. I’m stumped on this one honestly.
I kind of like the idea of him working security? Would be a fun callback to Draal basically acting as Jim’s bodyguard in canon.
And I guess that means… Rule 3 needs another third member? D:
Rule 3 DOES need a third member now. That’s the other problem. I’m running out of named trolls at this point.
Unless…Vendel as their Willie Nelson type front man…

if you want to tie in Kanjigar as well#maybe he was a police officer or fire fighter#who was killed in the line of duty#and Draal feels like he can never quite manage to live up to his father’s legacy#also sounds like Nomura is really thriving in this AU#love that for her
Oh I LOVE this. It’s perfect. And Kanjigar doesn’t even have to die for it to work– it could be that Draal was all set to follow in his father’s footsteps until a terrible incident cost him his arm, instantly disqualifying him from service. Except that would disqualify him from security work too. Hm.
Well,somethinghappens and he can’t do what his dad did so he ends up falling into general security work.
And yes! Nomura is doing well in this AU. Her drive, intelligence, and talent combined with Strickler’s connections allowed her to find success earlier than most other opera singers.
(Also, TIL that a career in opera involves WAY more work than I imagined. Like, yikes. How can anyone afford to do it full time???)
She and Draal will probably still break up though. I’m thinking it’ll be a case of they were both too young/immature to treat each other well.
