The Bodyguard Au - Tumblr Posts
thinking about aus for ocs is so funny. like i already put this guy in a situation but what if i put them in another totally different one
Are we talking tumblr crowd or the general crowd? Queer folks or heteronormative folks?
I feel like people would characterize Jack as much more grumpy and moody than he really is, like a cat. When really he's more dog energy, even if he might not admit it. Loyal to his cause, lost when he doesn't have one. The Bodyguard AU proves this.
There would definitely be a crowd, though, that misinterprets Jack as a much more ill-intentioned character than he is. He wanted to kill Eddie. He wanted to lie to him. He wanted to preserve himself, and now he's getting what was coming for him.
And then there are always the people who might go a little too hard on the tsundere angle. He's kind of just.. chill. I wouldn't say indifferent, but he's got enough going on without being unhealthily attached to someone. If anything, Eddie's the one who's unhealthily attached. Anyways, he blocks out all his feelings, not just the positive ones. He's just a lonely guy with abandonment issues.
Meanwhile, I think people would probably characterize Eddie as much more quippy and happy-go-lucky than he's written. Either that, or they would write him as a himbo. Really, he's just some guy who used too many hair products, was a bastard, and now he's dead so he doesn't really have to worry about that anymore. I'm not sure where I was going with this.
I didn't really talk about queerness. Anyways, gay people would say they're gay. Heteronormative people would say they're not gay. The obvious.

Hope you liked my infodump.
(If anyone else actually reads through this and is confused, there is not currently any more information. This is part of my plan to just start posting about my OCs like they're common knowledge, because I don't really know what else to do. Thanks.)
If your oc was a canon character what bad takes/gross mischaracterizations would the fandom come up with for them
I regret to inform you Iām #tgtgm trash.
You ever just... yell about #the bodyguard au??
