Yes, I am definitely writing those fics. Though, granted, a couple of the fics that involve Joe being adopted into the Miles family have some sad things going on. Like in one of them he has an eating disorder (I have like 4,000+ words of that fic written AND I HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN TO THE COMFORT) and in the other he's just REALLY DEPRESSED (it started as a straight up fic exploring Joe's autism and then I got really depressed and it devolved into 2,000 words of him being depressed and vaguely suicidal and I'm going with it). Those are both post season 3 AUs, though. The Mansell one is obviously post season 4. And yes, Kent is in the fic and dealing with his own mental health stuff and sort of helping Mansell out because he can't NOT be there, Erica's his twin. (Also Erica and Mansell totally have an open relationship when it comes to sex. COME ON, it would work and honestly from what little we see of Erica she seems like that kind of gal.)
Also I'm writing at least parts of a big D/s AU fic. Fanmail me on tumblr if you want more details on that. I've hashed out a whole bunch of details and scenes with another internet friend and I'm hoping she'll write something in it too. I'm not ever going to post it but I will share with you two.
Mansell and the movieeeeeee. I have this whole headcanon now that Mansell actually really likes classic films and films in general.
(Also I have everyone's sad or fucked up childhoods in my head. Want to know them?! I don't care, I'm telling you anyway.
So Mansell's parents were generally not around, and when they were around they were fighting and throwing things to the point where Mansell just kept his plates and glasses in his room because he didn't want them to break it. And they spent a whole lot of their time screaming at each other about how one was cheating on the other, which Mansell thought was stupid because he knew that they were BOTH cheating on the other. And his mum felt bad that she didn't spend time with him, so she taught Small Mansell how to sew and knit, and he was young enough at first that he didn't know it was 'girly' and then as he grew up he just kept doing it because he liked it and because he was good at it and because it was time with his mum. And then the only thing he ever did with his dad was watch classic films while his dad slowly got drunk and went to sleep.
And Riley grew up in a family without much money and she spent a lot of time caring for her younger brother and sister (they're twins!) and worrying about money because her parents worked all the time, so much of the time that she barely saw them, and they were still struggling.
And the Kent twins grew up with Emerson kind of getting ignored in favor of Erica by their parents because Erica was the difficult child and then when Emerson started getting older and they got into their teens and his mental health deteriorated and the symptoms of BPD started really showing up--even though you can't get diagnosed with a personality disorder until you're eighteen you can still have most or all of the characteristics when you're younger--his parents still kind of focused on Erica because they figured, well, she'd live to thirty. And so Erica ended up taking care of Emerson, which isn't fair for a teenager.
And Joe...well. After his father died he and his mum sort of fell apart and barely even talked or left the house.
And Miles...well, yeah. His dad left, his mom struggled, and a few of his siblings didn't end up well.)
