Hi! I can absolutely tell you a little bit about D3! I love talking about it, just ask @southsidewrites and @sweetfogarty, I talk their ears off about it and send them snippets unprompted because I’m horrible.

D3 follows the basic storyline of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth. Characters A and B are happy and in love. Character B dies tragically. A is heartbroken. A goes to save B’s immortal soul from the afterlife. I wanted to keep it a very loose retelling and allow myself to play with characters and worldbuilding. 

There’s a lot of mythology in the fic, mostly based on Celtic folklore and ancient paganism, because that’s what I’m interested in. So the original myth is in there, but Ancient Greek Gods will not be showing up in the fic, and most of the lore I talk about is coming from my own head.

In all, there’s a lot of folklore, a lot of romance, and a lot of angst! I don’t want to give too much away, but the basic storyline is the same as the original myth, just with a lot of my own ideas added to it. 

You three look like you’re up to something,” Stiles declared loudly as he sidled into the chair next to Ariana, essentially announcing his arrival to everyone in the library. 

“Loud,” Siobhan replied back dryly from her spot across from Ariana, barely bothering to lift her head from the wooden table where she’d been mostly zoned out for the last half hour. 

“And proud!” Stiles replied with a wink. It was a miracle that he and Siobhan hadn’t murdered each other yet, although that was probably mostly due to Sibohan’s lack of energy these days. Still, Ariana was sure that Siobhan would cause plenty of harm if she could. 

Genevieve was the only one sensible enough to hush Stiles, nudging Ariana’s foot under the table as the two of them surreptitiously closed the books in front of them before Stiles could get a good look. “Hi Stiles,” Genevieve said, drawing his attention away from Siobhan once the books were closed. 

“Why are you here?” Ariana interrupted bluntly, nudging him slightly and causing him to almost fall of his seat. She bit back a smirk, instead just raising a single eyebrow. 

“I was here to study but as I said, you three look like you’re plotting something and I am merely looking out for the safety of everyone around you.” Stiles waggled his eyebrows for emphasis while Siobhan let out a bored sigh, her eyes drifting shut again. 

“We’re having a secret meeting. Girls only,” Ariana retorted back to Stiles as she attempted to casually lean on the books on the table, covering the names as best she could.

Luckily Stiles didn’t notice her odd posture as he fired several questions her way. “Ooh how mysterious. What kind of meeting? Are we talking boy drama? Or mysterious power drama?” 

“Funny you should ask! Actually murder was a part of the agenda today. Know anyone who would want to volunteer?” Ariana said, plastering a big excited grin on her face. “We’re looking for someone super annoying, preferably with a weird name.”

Stiles held up his hands in defence as his eyes widened slightly. “Hey, no need to be rude. Siobhan is sitting right there.” 

“Ha.” Siobhan had enough energy to lift her head up to give a single monotone syllable laugh, the dead look in her eyes giving a clear suggestion of how ready she was to commit a murder right there. Genevieve and Ariana both bit down a laugh, ducking their heads down in sync. 

Stiles seemed to get the hint as the three girls refused to actually elaborate any further. “Alright, I’ll go take a poll and find you some viable candidates,” he declared, sliding off his chair and bouncing back out of the library, apparently forgetting all about his intentions to study.

Genevieve waited a moment until Stiles had disappeared before letting out a breath of relief. “Yikes,” she said plainly, running a hand through her long hair as she flipped the closest book open again. “Okay, where were we?”

“Sacrificial rituals and how to reverse them,” Ariana supplied helpfully as she opened up her notebook, her eyes scanning the notes she’d been taking just moments ago. 

i wanna start this off by saying if you saw this before i just fixed it, know that i’m blind and really thought you asked for 7-22 ... let’s pretend that didn’t happen.

17. what senses (sights, smells, feelings, etc). remind them of each other? for brooke, the smell and feel of leather would remind her of sweets. and vice versa, probably the smell of her shampoo or her perfume.

18. what would be their love motto? ride or die.

19. if they could each write a single line in their marriage vows, what would they be? honestly? probably “ride or die”, once again.

20. what is a promise they have made to each other? to have each other’s backs and to have communication that isn’t being snarky to each other when they’re mad.

21. how have they changed each other for the better/for the worse? sweet pea has calmed down quite a bit since brooke. granted, he’d be ready for a fight at the drop of a hat, but brooke sort of grounds him a bit. and while she sort of was before, pea’s kind of made brooke a lot more confident in what she says and how she defends the people she loves.

22. if their lives were what was originally intended at birth, would they have still fallen in love? yes? i mean if their lives were what was originally intended at birth, doesn’t that mean it’s basically the same things would happen? like am i reading this wrong or just dumb? like i couldn’t honestly pick a different love interest for brooke, so i very much believe they’re meant for each other.

Thanks Erin! I’m placing this sometime in s6, so after Liam and Hailey broke up, and he‘s with someone else.

“WHAT DID YOU GUYS DO?!”

The group of four looked up to see Liam, Hayden, Sara, and Mason staring at them with shock. For there was Hailey, Colton, and their doppelgängers standing in front of a dead guy. Hailey’s claws were dripping blood while one of Colton’s arrows was protruding from the dead guy’s torso. Dinah and Archie both had bats that were covered in blood as well.

“Uh, pay no attention to the dead guy behind us,” said Dinah, nervously running a hand through the hair that has recently been cut to look like her twin’s.

Hailey rolled her eyes. “D, I love you and all, but that was honestly the worst thing to say.”

“Look,” spoke Archie, trying to take the lead. “This guy was trying to kill Laurel. I mean, he probably thought it was Hails, but since it was Laurel...”

“That means murder was apart of the agenda for today,” Hailey cut in coolly, her stare literally daring her friends (especially her ex) to contradict her.

Sara held up her hands in defense. “Hey, don’t look at me. I’m just disappointed you didn’t ask me to help you out.”

“That’s the reason WHY we didn’t ask you to help,” said Colton pointedly.

“Plus, this was a doppelgängers’ adventure only,” Dinah stated while throwing her arm over Hailey’s shoulder. “Outsiders not allowed.”

Her glare was directed towards Liam at that. It was obvious to anyone that she did not approve of him moving on so quickly from her twin from another universe.

Liam dropped his gaze down, while Mason looked put out.

“Man, I wish I had a doppelgänger from a different universe!”
