the mona lisa and his best friend the mona lisa 2 in their pure of heart original form…… sighs………

i don't actually know what i could say here that wouldn't be already known knowledge…. erm… i'd like to think this au takes place directly after telltale keeping to that true bttf style of just being back to back nonsense. that bit with all the older marties at the end of the game? oh yeah baby. that's this. specifically the last one who gets mad at the other two for "altering his timeline one too many times" i'd say is either bad-end trilogy marty (doc never comes back for telltale and marty dedicates his life to trying to find him) or 1985A turned 2015a marty just from his grungy attire. that's all i got. maybe i'll think of more? but yeah. the duo of all time i love them so much

coughs into the microphone

now we're getting to the good stuff. 1985a. hell valley. ooh BABY

so for doc in this design i wanted to mesh his regular 1985/1955 attire to really drive in that "this is lone pine doc that KNOWS something has gone wrong" kind of feel. god that makes me cry real tears…..

i'd like to imagine his estate fire still happens; he still tries to make the delorean but is way too late. i'd also like to believe biff put him in the mad-house because he is probably the only wide-eyed scientist in the town and doc is probably very HEY GUYS SOMETHINGS WRONG. SOMETHINGS GONE VERY VERY WRONG. I SWEAR. GUYS. (shoutout to @hymntoody for bringing this idea up i cried about it for like 7 hours it was so beautiful you're so right /pos)

you'll notice his 1955 jacket wrapped around his waist all burnt up from the fire, and his undershirt is the 55 one. i think this doc would hold on to those items/other 1955 things to "prove" to himself that he KNOWS something's wrong. all those years of nobody believing you would probably mess your head up a little. he also still keeps marty's letter on him at all times. i'd like to say in the event bttf2 doesn't happen he breaks out of the mad house sometime after october 26th and brute-forces trying to find marty and get his help to make everything right. cue a parallel between regular marty and citizen brown but 1985A doc and 1985A marty. oh my heart.

the saddest part about these two i don't think they'd ever meet. doc probably tries. he tries his best. after marty never shows up to his workshop he goes and tries to find him himself. but for obvious reasons he's never been able to get a hold of the poor kid and then whoops in the mad house you go old man

perhaps in a timeline where bttf2 just doesn't happen / marty fails doc breaks out and teams up with his marty to make things right or if you wanna be angsty get revenge

okay you thought 1985a was long hold onto ur flux capacitors

so a bit of background first! citizen marty/evil martin as i like to call him originally came from an AU idea where doc is the one who makes it to citizen valley and has to enlist citizen marty's help in getting home. the reason i call him evil marty is not just because he is regular marty's direct opposite but i think those traits are taken to the absolute EXTREME

we all know how devoted martin is to being recognized by citizen brown. i think he's very goal-oriented, cold and absolutely a perfectionist. (note: this is also why i think martin dropped the guitar. he wasn't good at it straight away. god. sorry. crying in the other room i'll be back) essentially turning marty's introverted nature and focus on his music into energy that is devoted into nothing but work. martin's version of citizen's brown motive to sabotage regular marty in setting everything right is his and citizen brown's success

like think about it. martin has accomplished so much at such a young age. imagine telling him that his true self is meant to be this slacker punky teenager who sits around playing guitar and hanging out with doc all day? that last part might sound nice, but what does marty have to rely on? that lack of control is what i think scares martin. martin has a future engraved in stone. marty's hasn't been written. (making myself cry AIUGH........) additionally doc's only """successful""" (i am sure he has had more) invention is the time machine and he's not that famous(?) ; all of regular doc's stories sound like headaches to deal with anyways

citizen brown from what i gathered from the games is only really vaguely familiar with martin. he does that whole monologue when marty walks in for the first time but he could have just gotten that off a paper or something who knows

again accounting for the fact marty doesn't come back and fix everything i think citizen and martin eventually meet. perhaps when martin's graduated from college. unfortunately i don't think they'd ever bond like doc and marty. it's strictly professional. i also think edna wouldn't like martin either. there's just something about him that doesn't sit right with her
