Shaundi: wow, that's really sad and tragic?

Boss: How is that tragic?

OH MAN. I’m already laughing, okay………..a mall au. Now this can go many ways, it can either be:

- They’re mall cops, in which they just fuck everything up and also those fucking lil scooters- It’s like a 6teen thing (if you don’t know what that is, its an old cartoon with teens hang in the mall too much, some work at shops and cause some chaos but in the end its cool and also cool kids) so basically like a weird high school thing but they’re not in high school, they’re all just suffering.- they own a mall to use as a hideout or something, but it’s b a d and also weird.

I’m gonna go along the lines of the “they all work at different shops but cause anarchy” deal. Like come on, it’d be funny. 

Can you imagine like Shaundi working at like some department store and hating it and then you see the hell that is the “boss” and some of the crew? Can you imagine fucking johnny working at that weird piercing shop in the mall? Or that one weapon shop in the mall? Or how the “boss” is fucking……….. working at hot topic? Can you imagine they pretend they chill around and everyone learns the dark truth…….. the boss works at the edgy shop. Unless we think about that mall in sr2 then someone is working at Let’s Pretend (oh god). Unless they’re old enough to work at Leather & Lace…………… :0

Okay, let me also think of the other weird au version of these, so like……… the saints own a mall. It’s hell, everyone is confused, all the mall cops are saints, everyone who works in the mall are saints members. Oh my god, it could be a cover up, where they need to hide or just like something, so the entire mall is a hideout in a way but also an actual mall but like everyone working is a saint member……….. oh fuck that’d be fucking weird. Sometimes the boss is just around the mall on those fucking scooters just cruising along…….

Actually, mall cops. Everyone’s a mall cop. Everyone’s bad at it one way or another, Shaundi is the only reliable one, the boss and johnny are just lil shits, Pierce is doing other things, I JUST-

These are dumb lil ideas, but I am legit laughing about taking a mall and using it as a hideout/base cause we already used a church, stripclub, and other things, like why not a mall :’D

Is that the one with the strip club? (where you gotta get like Tanya but you kind of spook her with your dancing?)

OKAY BUT SAME???? I ALWAYS CACKLE AT THAT PART!!!

I always feel bad after punching Matt, the boss tries to be like “i’m sorry he’s a hug” but then it’s just so awkward like who’d want to be hugged by the person who literally just hit them? Better luck next time boss!!

My other favorite parts of iv is matt’s loyalty mission, and when the boss comments on kinzie’s poodle skirt right after she said not to bring it up and she punches them, honestly???? Iconic.
