You should tell Tumblr more about the nightmare blunt rotation au /silly
Scott inviting Joel, Grian, Scar, Tango and Gem to his house to smoke some weed and the group literally fucking killing him <3
Don't want to say much because I plan to write this, but Martyn (Scott's boyfriend) breaking down in the court right before the group is declared not guilty and the case closes as an "accident"!!!!!
Spoilers <3
The noise in the courthouse is overwhelming. Gem, Joel, Scar, Grian, and Tango were gathered right outside their courtroom, which will decide their fate from now on. Tango is walking back and forth, his breathing shallow, as Grain stands at the window, looking outside at all the reporters gathered for the hearing. Others are sitting on the benches, the clock ticking near them, as they wait for the court to start.
"You think we'll win this?" Grian asks, his voice cracking under the constant pressure.
It's been a month since Scott's death, since the investigation started. It was all finally coming to an end. There was nothing on the crime scene. Four of them breathed in too much smoke, confirming that they had been in the burning basement for a long time. This added another point to that defence, their story that they had woken up with flames already taking over Scott's room in the basement. Tango was seen in the main room camera before the fire, sleeping there, which was why he was the last one to notice the fire. It all made sense.
They were just stupid new adults, trying something new, which ended up in a tragedy.
Tragedy. That's what it was.
"Yes," Gem says, sounding somewhat confident despite the tremble of her body. "We are good. Everything's gonna be fine.."
Grian turns back to her to comment, but he suddenly flinches, taking a step back. As the others follow his gaze, they find Martyn approaching them.
Martyn... He avoided them since the tragedy. The first and the last time at least one of them had heard him was back in the police station, the night of the fire. When he learned about the fire, he went to Scott's house, and the neighbours, not knowing the details, told him that everyone had been taken back to the police for questioning about the fire.
Martyn came to the station thinking that Scott was there. The others were still in different rooms, being questioned, when Scar, sitting outside on the bench, heard Martyn's screaming.
None of them has seen him after that.
They were never ready to see Martyn after what happened, especially not now, getting ready for the court, and seeing Martyn in all black. His bandana was missing from his forehead, instead holding his hair up in a ponytail, just like Scott used to do for him. His eyes were red and puffy; he probably cried right before coming here. Ignoring the redness, they could see the dark circles surrounding his eyes, indicating that he hadn't rested for a while.
They were not ready for this. There's no way someone can be ready for this.
The silence envelops them as Martyn finally stops, standing in front of the group, his empty eyes darting from one to another. With every eye contact, the tension grows, all of them looking away, before Martyn can look at someone else. They are avoiding him, just like Martyn was avoiding them, and he knows why.
"Tell me," he croaks, his hands trembling. "Tell me what happened. What actually happened."
They all stay silent, and the longer the silence lasts, the worse Martyn's tremor, as his face falls. They can all see how Martyn is fighting the tears, keeping down the sobs, calming down his breathing. It's not working as Martyn wants, it's visible, it's devastating, but none of them comment on it. They all know why he's like this. They all understand. That's what they expected from him, and that's what they get, as their hearts grow heavier, their own tears fighting to escape.
"TELL ME!" Martyn screams, his voice breaking in a choked sob, as the tears finally fall from his eyes. "Please.." he adds much more quietly, not even bothering to brush his tears away. "I-I need to know.. I need to know what happened.. I need to know how he- how he-"
"His candles.." Scar whispers, breaking the silence from the group. They all wince, turning back to him, and Scar bites down on his lip, staring back at Martyn. It's uncomfortable, having Martyn looking at him like this. It's wrong. It's heartbreaking. "His candle started the fire when we were sle-"
"Stop," Martyn says, seizing. Tango and Grian take a step back, while others shrink in their seats. Martyn's hands are clenched tight, and they can see the veins ready to pop from all the anger that he's holding in. "He had those candles since he was seven. He- he found comfort in them, and he knew- he knew how to be careful with them around. It never..."
"I'm sorry, Martyn," Grian whispers, his own hands shaking, as he wraps them around himself. "We- We were high, and I- We just forgot.. Maybe- Maybe someone accidentally knocked it over, but we don't- we don't know, Martyn. We just woke up to the fire, I'm sorry." He lets his own tears fall. "I'm sorry.. I'm so sorry, Martyn. We are s-sorry."
One by one, the crying spreads to the others, as Grian turns into a mess, apologizing over and over again. They all felt that apology, they all meant it, but could never say it out loud, not to Martyn, not knowing what actually happened back there.
Martyn's angry expression slowly drops, as he also chokes out another sob, breaking down worse than all of them together. No wonder Martyn and Scott were childhood best friends, and have been dating for three years now.
"I was supposed to come to you..." Martyn whispered through his tears, his shoulders slumped forward, his legs hardly keeping him standing. "His mom- His mom always disliked me.. I was.. I was supposed to come later, after she l-left for the night shift.. I was- But I stayed.. I stayed back at Cleo's with the others, and.."
Martyn hides his face behind his hands as another sob escapes him. They watch as his legs slowly give out, and he softly drops to the ground on his knees.
"What now? What- What do I do now?"
None of them answers. They don't know how. They sit there, listening to Martyn's choked crying, as they wait for the doors to the courthouse to open, urging them all inside.
But no matter how this ends... they have lost no matter what.

Info on any special animals to the characters at the Love Ranch au?
Jimmy has a favourite cow Daisy ("My favourite grandma"), the reason he jokes about her being a grandma, is because she's the oldest cow on the ranch (11), while others are younger than 5 years, because other cows are send to slaughter pretty early in life, so they can have healthy and young meet. Daisy is the only cow that they decided to allow to grow and die naturally, because Jimmy was the one who delivered her when he was a teenager, helping his grandparents on the ranch. (His first cow! woah!)
Tango has a blind black cat named Warden, and she has a blue collar that has her name on it. She's around 7, and he got her himself when he was still in high school, very soon after moving into Tumble Town with his adoptive parents. He saw her in the park near his house, and saw that she was blind (half of the fur on her right side of her face is missing, including the ear), he never find out what happened to her, but veterinarian confirmed that it was recent, so he asked his newly adoptive parents to shelter her, and they couldn't say no to him.
Martyn and Scott have an ugly ass rat called Ratsune Miku that they raise together and always act like divorced parents around her. She's exactly a year, four months, and six days old (they started counting the day they got her, but before that she was like?? two months old), and she's their precious baby, and they always argue about taking each other to court for her because the other takes more time with their little sweet baby (they live in the same house??)
(Scott wants to get a dog.)
Pearl has Tilly! She's her service dog (Labrador) that she got when she was a teenager, before her.. fallout with Scott. She's been helping her before AND after, and Pearl is very grateful for Tilly, because she has been by her side during the worst phase of her life.
Haven't really thoguht about other SPECIFIC animals, but I know that in Love Ranch, they have outside animals like cows, goats, (not a lot of them like Jimmy and Tango's ranch), and also have indoor animals like cats and dogs
What made Scott become a rancher as well? Oh and moving right next to another ranch as well XD
hello, welcome to my Scott and also.. mean gills rant???
Let's say, Scott didn't have a nice and good childhood, and let's say, the second he turned eighteen, he moved out of the household that held too many bad memories, which resulted in him ending up on the streets!
If you've read the mean gills snippet, YES, Martyn was the one who basically found him and gave him a place to stay (he really wanted a roommate, so he promised Scott that he would pay for both of them for the first months before Scott also found a job).
Because of this, Martyn has influenced Scott a lot, the biggest influence being his major! When they moved in, Martyn (19) was already first year of studies on a psychology course, and Scott happened to be around him a lot, watching him do work, or talk about it.
After everything that happened in his life, and.. struggling with people around him, Scott decided to pick up psychology as well, to understand the human mind.
Through therapy on his own, Scott realized that he found help around animals (just like Pearl used to do...), so even before graduating, he always had in mind an animal therapy.
They spend years brainstorming together actually, Martyn and Cleo helping in the beginning (these two were on the same year), and then Skizz (Scott's year) also joining in. When they all decided to agree on Scott's desire to keep animal therapy, they threw ideas at each other, and it was Cleo who joked about having a ranch.
Scott disliked life in the city, so despite it being a joke the first time, he immediately put his vote in, and soon enough, others also followed.
And well!! The ranch accident was a complete accident, actually. They just needed a land they could keep their animals on, and when they found it, they bought it! They aren't a REAL ranch after all, they are just a therapy center, the Ranch near them doesn't have to worry about competition!
Should have told that to Tango and Jimmy immediately, before leaving them in the dark and allowing this miscommunication to continue..
Scott steps into their apartment carrying three plastic bags after a quick trip to the supermarket. He had a long shift back in the restaurant, but had to take a little detour before coming back, when Martyn called him about their fridge being almost empty. He has no idea how both of them managed to miss that, considering how they are the ones who cook in this house, but well, someone had to go shopping, and it definitely wasn't Martyn.
"This isn't even a real source, oh my god!" Cleo's voice from the laptop reaches him as soon as Scott steps into the kitchen. The room is open, leading into a dining room, where Martyn is sitting right now, his laptop and papers on the table, spread in a usual messy manner.
"What's up?" He asks loudly enough that both Martyn and Cleo can hear him as he puts the bags down on the kitchen table.
Martyn immediately looks up, smiling at him, before he sighs overdramatically and leans back into the chair. "Our group member is messing with our assignment again! I wrote my part - he said, and then gave it to us, with no real source, no real proof, not a single actual study mentioned!"
"We have to rewrite his whole part, because let's be honest, he won't do shit," Cleo snorts from the other side, followed by a shuffle of papers.
"Oh, he's not gonna last long in the course," Martyn adds, stretching as he sighs down at the papers.
"Is this a paper about memories?" Scott asks curiously, moving to the dining hall and circling around Martyn, to put his chin on Martyn's blonde hair, while he looks down at the laptop, noticing a google document open, with Cleo's camera feed on the top right corner.
"Yeah," Martyn hums, leaning into Scott, as he moves his hand up, softly brushing it against Scott's cheek. "Specifically, how trauma affects those memories."
"Agh, get a room," Cleo scoffs, making Scott chuckle.
"You're just jealous," Martyn smirks, moving his hand on the back of Scott's neck to pull him down into a kiss. Scott giggles into the kiss, cupping Martyn's cheeks, while Cleo makes another gagging noise.
"Call me back when you two are done with romance," they say, immediately cutting off the call before Martyn can say anything.
The kiss breaks with a laugh from both of them, as Martyn reaches forward and closes the laptop, standing up from his chair. "I see you got the fooood, I'm so hungry right now, I think I might explode," he says, taking Scott's hand and tugging him toward the kitchen.
"I got us some ramen, living up to your name of a broke student," Scott snorts, as Martyn reaches into the bags, taking out everything Scott bought.
"Ha ha, very funny, Scott!" Martyn says mockingly, but the softness doesn't leave his tone, as he teases his boyfriend. "Plus, you have the money, so I'm not actually broke if you think about it!"
"Oh, so that's what I am to you? My money?" Scott pouts as he brushes his hand into Martyn's hair, placing a quick smooch on his neck. The look that Martyn gives him at that makes him go red.
"Ah yes.. money," Martyn says, giving Scott a kiss back, making him chuckle. They are both VERY aware that Scott didn't have any money when Martyn found him, but oh well, Scott always found comfort in joking about his life.
"Come on, let's make us some ramen then," Martyn hums, taking out the little packages from the bag. "Cleo can wait a bit longer, I'm not calling back until I'm full of food and my needed Scott time."
Scott giggles, going back to the bags. It hasn't been a full year yet, but he knows that he's gotten used to this life by now. And surprisingly, life is finally good again.

Hey hiii :3 I'm obsessing over the Love Ranch AU currently and was wondering where Ren fits into it all (if he does and if you can say)
I can't wait to see what you come up with for everything ahhh
Ren is a local high school history teacher who also leads the drama club!
He works on most of the school events, is the one teacher who plans the best trips ever, and actually motivates you to chase your dreams, instead of putting you into a box that society has created. You want to be on Broadway? Here is the list of all the vocal coaches in town, from cheap to expensive! You want to be an actor? Here's the list for all the additional drama clubs around the town, that are higher level than high school, and acting courses, prices ranging from affordable to a bit more expensive! You want to work in MORGUE???? Ah- Huh?? Okay?? I'll?? try to find something for you??? He's very supportive.
tell me more about love ranch tango i love him sm!! i love my tek boy and must know more about his story in your au 🙏🙏
Oh, his story is kinda tragic, erm! Well ah, let's say that he had two families, one before he was 13, and the other after that, when he was adopted at age 14 by a family in Tumble Town, he was born and raised in another town before that, more specifically in Rivendell (He and Scott were in the same city, woah! Its just me projecting my love to another au where Tango lives in RIvendell, dont mind me)
When he first arrived in Tumble Town, he didn't have many friends, but he quickly bonded with a neighbor kid and a classmate Jimmy (yep, they are same age in this au, a lot of them are in same age range), so they became friends, and started dating around age 16
Tango proposed to Jimmy when they were fresh out of high school, at 19, so they are high school sweethearts!
Tango loves working with animals, yes, but most of his time is spent on the actual ranch, their home. He loves taking care of it, renovating it sometimes, building all new stuff, while still trying to keep some old things there (because they belonged to Jimmy's now deceased grandparents)
He also has a lot of... fire-related trauma, going back to before he was adopted, let's say, fire took away too much from him, he still hasn't recovered
I don't know if you meant this inbox, so sending it here
Scarian but angst. It involves Watcher! Grian and Scar, where Scar sees him and is trying to reach out to him as memories from past life series tragedies between the two plays around them (you can take liberties with how this plays btw) and the ending involves Scar not being able to reach out to him (again, liberties with how you want to close this story out)
The Shadow People.
° Scarian
° Post-Secret Life, Pre-Wild Life
This is just mostly Scar having NO IDEA what is going on
I think I did this a bit differently than the original idea, and might have dowplayed the tragedies a bit, but I haven't watched Scar's POVs and watched Grian's two, so erm, yeah..
HOPE YOU LIKE IT THO! If you have any critisism, feel free to comment on ao3, so I can work on it for the future fics
