[OOC] Stranger Beetles

[Beetlejuice96]

Plus, Toph fighting off demons sounds funny.

Ticket number 3728282838483 please come to the window

[Beetlejuice96]

Oh dear God. Those poor dead people who've possibly been skipped are gonna be pissed.

[Metronome]

They're newly deads. What're they gonna do about it?

[Beetlejuice96]

Eh, fair point. Also, Lyds doesn't give a single fuck that Mrs. Shoggoth is one of the head honchos in the Netherworld.

Lyds: Look upon my field where I grow my fucks. You'll see it is barren.

[Beetlejuice96]

Lyds is reeaaaaaly poking the Shoggoth bear, isn't she?

[Metronome]

She gon get ate

[Beetlejuice96]

Not if her powers, Beej, and Big Sandy stop her first.

[Beetlejuice96]

Oooh. Evil thought. 😈

[Metronome]

LYDIA: An AU where Lawrence is a sad, lonely used car salesman and Lydia is a ghost/demon that haunts his new house.

[Beetlejuice96]

That's actually a funny thought but also interesting. She'd be the bug loving, reality bending demon while he's the clairvoyant one.

Oh, I had a thought for after the battle.

[Metronome]

What's that?

[Beetlejuice96]

After defeating Mrs. Shoggoth and getting back to the living world (which was probably just half an hour in Living world time), Lydia decides to introduce her new family to her dad, Maitlands and friends. As they're all mingling and Beej is back to his old self, Lydia collapses unresponsive as she falls into a comatose.

But Beetlejuice knows better. Somehow, someway, her soul was taken and is now trapped in the Netherworld.

Found this quiz and couldn't resist. I had to share.

[Metronome]

Taken by who though?

[Beetlejuice96]

Abaddon perhaps?

[Metronome]

Tru

[Beetlejuice96]

Lyds tries her hand at astral projection to talk to him so he knows what's going on.

[Metronome]

I keep thinking about that role swap AU now. Do you think it'd be worth a try? Maybe just a short and cute story line?

[Beetlejuice96]

Sure, plus it'd be interesting to see Charles or Delia in Mrs. Shoggoth's place as a head honcho.

[Beetlejuice96]

Or would their last names change? Hear me out. Lydia Beetlejuice Shoggoth, daughter of Mrs. Shoggoth, tries tricking the newly dead labradoodles and Lawrence Deetz into bringing her to the living world by having her name said three times. She's an old as dirt demon and Lawrence is a teen boy. It works with the role swap AU.
