This is a No Name SMP / Lifesteal AU that I've been developing for some months (alongside my brother) called No Name Vigilante AU. Not a lot of it is posted on Ao3 because I've not formally written a lot of the first arc but I thought posting to Tumblr might help me to work on it. That and my brother really wants a fandom to scream at...
The story follows our 3 main characters - Rekrap, Branzy and Skip - in POV. Other characters who appear are Failboat, Jaymoji and Sandiction (of course) as well as members of Lifesteal in the later arcs. Most prominently we have Parrot, Clown, and Yeah Jaron (3HT). The story is set within a modern reality where about 30% of the population is 'enhanced' or have powers/abilities. A majority of the main cast has powers because that's fun and I'm self indulgent.
Here's some basics on their powers:
Branzy - Fulgurkinesis - Able to feel the flow of electricity inside of things and either take it away to power himself or give more electricity to something (he can charge your phone). Weak powers if he isn't tapped into anything, invents all of his own weapons. Basically a human battery.
Failboat - Copy ability - If he can touch you, he can borrow your power. This does not take away the other person's power just duplicates it. He loses the power if he gets hurt. Like Kirby.
Jaymoji - Oobleck (shapeshifting in a way) - Solidifies under physical pressure and can turn into goo/ink to slip under doorways and the like. Splatoon 'I'm a kid, I'm a squid' style.
Sand - Illusions - Can make projections to change his appearance or the environment around him. Only visual, not auditory (can't make sounds) and cannot use the illusions to touch or harm people physically.
Skip - Powerless - L
Rekrap - Danger sense - Can feel physical danger before it hurts him. Isn't able to sense if someone has ill intent or anything like that, it is 100% physical.
We also have hybrids within the AU, Parrot being a bird hybrid, for instance. Hybrids are different to enhanced meaning Parrot is powerless. Both enhanced abilities and hybrid traits are hereditary.
There's also a Hero Association (HA) that hires people to work and protect the city but our No Name gang are just vigilantes at the start of the AU, hence the name.
Anyway, a first little one-shot can already be found on my Ao3 (fic link) if anyone is interested. I'm hoping to eventually post more to there but feel free to ask any questions. I've tried to be vague in this post to not spoil too much because it's a decently big AU but I needed to share this with more people.

May i have a rekrap being a menace to society pretty please <3
Woods Update: coming home today. I think. Encountered no faes or cryptids but my buddy Spider-Man got eaten alive by bugs. Or not. Idk I scheduled all of these the night before I actually left so idk what the Critter situation has been
We should all get more Mogswamp-pilled actually I think. Nods sagely.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Entirely inspired by Tourists from the future, please go check out their work if you enjoy 3HT shenanigans. But this fic was my take on characterising the Jaron from their universe :))
You don't need to read the original fic to understand mine but I recommend it
Summary beneath the cut
--------------
All the questions weren't making the pain any more bearable, Jaron moving to lean against the building nearest to him. He stares at his own fingers, frowning at how harshly they shake. He's going to survive this, whether he asks Bacon and Planet for help or not. Why bother them?
Jaron will be the death of them both.
He keeps walking.
---
AKA. Time traveller Jaron gets hurt while fighting alone. He goes to the only people he trusts to help him and regrets it every moment he's there

hello hello… so i heard something about a beacon trio hero/vigilante/villain au…...
hi. hello. ahahaha so as it turns out i actually do have the beacon trio juice left inside of me so. Maybe I Can Finish This or maybe not but they are still soooo. crazy to me
did you see them jump rek in lifesteal world. i wish they got more hits in it would have been so fun but anyways,, idk i think the idea of jojo, a hero new to the whole lifesteal scene, hanging out with mr ex vigilante now divine intervention woogie and Scary Evil Villain rek is so lovely.
i also just find it very exciting and fun that, simultaneously, they all like each other very much but jojo and woogie would also kill rek and vice versa yknow. they Know Better than to fully trust rek except they still let their guard down, and it sure sucks to feel betrayed when you weren’t supposed to feel betrayed because you weren’t supposed to expect better of him.
internal conflict galore! except it would be less about feeling like he’s betraying his team or hurting jojo/woogie on rek’s side. i feel like he would only feel bad if he did something like show them all the end portals then they blew them up. if they managed to get the drop on him and he didn’t realize,, on the jojo-woogie side there could be some really interesting stuff about hannah’s relative inactivity and disconnect from them maybe… and the typical consorting with villain stuff
but i do want it to work both ways for them in this au. i want them to catch rek off-guard and manage to hurt team apoc in some way but i also want rek to betray them. for posterity.
anyways here’s a wip of some of it,,
“You know…” Jojo trails off, peering through her visor at Rek. “I don’t really think Apocalypse is the biggest threat out there.”
Rek looks at her from where he’s hoisted himself up onto the railing of the building they're perched on. “Really? Even with all the“ —he makes a complicated motion with his hands that she assumes means the orbital strike cannon— “stuff?”
“Nah,” she grins, because Rek barely even sounds offended. And he’s genuine about that, too. “I think it’s Team BING. But maybe… that’s just the KOS they put on my head speaking.”
At that, Rek gives her a delighted little laugh, tilting his head to the side.
“Yeah, they’re pretty scary. Last time when I got jumped by Pentar and Yungy, it was so cooked for me. Like, there was no saving me from that situation, they took one of my lives.”
She winces at that, making a sympathetic noise. Losing a heart always hurts. “Oof. That’s gotta suck dude, glad you survived.”
“Thanks,” Rek grins at her. Jojo reaches out to pat his shoulder, and he leans forward a little, giving her access. Or maybe she’s just moved closer.
She doesn’t miss how he’s entirely avoided the topic of how dangerous Apocalypse is, though.
Before she can think too deeply on that, Woogie lands next to her with a tumble and a half-grunt-half-yelp, straightening himself with the help of her shoulder.
“Hi! Hello,” he coughs, “sorry I’m late.”
He slants her a suspicious-looking stare which she reciprocates—even if she has no idea what Woogie’s giving her the look for (unified fronts are important!)—before snapping his head back to look at Rek.
Hey, so, um... how would the gang feel if I maybe posted my Lifesteal season 7 hero AU? Would we be cool with that? Like, I know I promised in this post that I would work on NNVAU but, like... Apocalypse and Team BING demand content....
Highkey, just let me know if anyone even wants to hear me talk about it because I think it's silly as fuck but I dunno if gang fucks with it

posting one of my fav clips from this vod (starting from 1:39:06), full transcript under the cut
PILI: Hey, guys, so you know that my birthday is, um... Wait, let me check the calendar.
REK: (laughs) Wait, you don't— Wait, hold on, I might have your birthday on my calendar. Wait, maybe I don't. (PILI: Oh—) Wait, do I?
PILI: I kinda wanna see, I kinda wanna see. I wanna see.
REK: Oh! Yeah, it's on the 18th.
PILI: (gasps) You do! (Rek chuckles.) (WOOGIE: Wait, your birthday's in six days?") Woogie, do you have my birthday on your calendar?
WOOGIE: Huh?
PILI: Do you have my birthday on your calendar, Woogie?
WOOGIE: Well, yeah, it's— Yeah, it's August 18th. (Rek snickers.)
PILI: Rek. Do you believe this guy?
REK: (laughing) I don't know.
WOOGIE: I didn't even know if it was August, (PILI: I dunno, Woogie.) I was taking a gamble.
PILI: You're letting me down. You're letting me down, Woogie.
WOOGIE: Pili, it never came up in con— in conversation! When's my birthday? Don't look at Snapchat.
REK: (snickers) You could hear him like, "fine."
PILI: (typing on his phone) Woogie birthday...
WOOGIE: Nooo, nooo. (Pili laughs.)
PILI: (whispering) Ugh, damn it.
WOOGIE: Yeah, I'm not that popular. (PILI: Um...) I'm not on Famous Birthdays.
PILI: Ughhh...
REK: You're not?
WOOGIE: Nah. But Rekrap is, though.
REK: I am.
PILI: I don't know—... (typing) Rekrap... birthday...
WOOGIE: September 9th.
PILI: Oh. Okay, so, (WOOGIE: Was I right?) you know what, Woogie? I forgive you, that's okay.
WOOGIE: When's my birthday, Pili?
PILI: No, I forgive you, Woogie, don't— you don't have to worry. Like, don't worry. Don't worry. Just forget about all this thing. I don't care that my birthday is not on your calendar. We should just move on, okay? We just— We just—
WOOGIE: When's my birthday, Pili?
PILI: (whispering) Rek.
WOOGIE: So you don't know. Just say you don't know, Pili.
PILI: No, I do! I just, (REK, laughing: Oh, really? When is it?) y'know, I don't feel like this really—
WOOGIE: What's the season? What's the season, Pili? (Rek laughs.) Time of the year?
[Pili whispers "HELP" to Rek three times.]
PILI: Ummm, when... the sun comes out, and the moon also comes out...
REK: Oh, I think that's true.
WOOGIE: I don't know, (PILI: Y'know...?) I heard that's true for every month.
REK: Ohhh, wait, (WOOGIE: I heard that's a regular thing.) now you might be on to something, Woogie.
[Pili whispers "A HINT" to Rek.]
PILI: Mmm...
WOOGIE: When's my birthday, Pili?
PILI: It's just— I feel like, in friendships, knowing each other's birthday is not really that important. (Woogie laughs.)
[Rek whispers "april 26" to Pili.]
REK: No? (Pili laughs.)
WOOGIE: I mean, Pili, I have, like, a birthday gift for you and everything, and you don't even know when my birthday is?
PILI: Um...
WOOGIE: I have a birthday present for you: go back to your base.
REK: Just take a wild guess.
PILI: Hey, is— Um... Okay, wild guess: is it— is it April 26th?
WOOGIE: (gasps) It is! Pili, you remembered! (REK: Oh my gosh, you remembered...) Oh my god, aww...
PILI: Of course I remember, of course! I would be a really bad friend if I (laughs) did not...
[Woogie whispers "snitch" to Rek.]
WOOGIE: He's remembering, man. It's so great that you remembered.
[Pili whispers "THANK YOUUUUUU" to Rek.]
PILI: (laughing) Mhm! I just have all my friends in my calendar!
REK: (wheezing as he mutes) Yo, somebody clip this, please, upload this on Youtube, oh my gosh.
I was watching Ash's Naked and Afraid vid where he was constantly plotting to get everyone else killed, but then the moment he gets in danger, Rekrap doesnt hesitate to jump in and help. That inspired me to make this!
i dont see these two together very often which is ashame I'm a huge fan of both

I added Clown to my NNVAU island and I pretty much immediately isolated him so he could haunt the narrative. I only introduced him to one person; Branzy. Now, you can imagine my shock and horror when Clown starts viewing Branzy as his BEST FRIEND FOREVER when they have only interacted ONCE. Now, imagine the fear I feel when Clown gets a PINK BUBBLE ABOVE HIS HEAD. I FORGOT I MADE BRANZY SWING ANY WHICH WAY AND I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT CLOWN'S INTO. GUYS, THEY CAN'T BE IN LOVE, IT ISN'T CANON, PLEASE
As an update that no one asked for, Branzy has expressed feelings for Clown as well. Oh, also, Clown managed to breach containment (the separate island I isolated him on) and is now acquaintances with Bacon. This might not mean anything to most people but trust me when I say this does mean something
