For dan I gave him a costume very similair to Drago's appearance, but i also gave him a leather jacket because he wants to be cool. Civilian costume is basically very similair to something he wore in one of the later seasons

Runos tiger costume was just very inspird by tigrerra, i added emeralds, because of tigrerras eyes. She also has claws because i said so. For civilian outfit i gave her a bit of a punk lolita vibe, because what even is runo's fashion style. Her season one outfit is so chaotic

Marucho's costume im least happy about so ill probably make some changes to later. If you have any suggestions please feel free to share them. I gave him a sailor uniform top, because Elfin reminds me of sailor moon so much, but I wanted to incorporate more of preyas, but i couldn't imagine him in a body suit. Civilian outfit is pretty simple.

It’s been over a year since the Bakugan Battle Brawlers and the Castle Knights brought peace to Gundalia and Neathia. The war is over, everyone has gone home, and the newly built up mega Bakugan Interspace has begun its biggest Grand Prix yet.

So, why can’t Dan focus on battling instead of on his nightmares?

He doesn’t remember exactly when they started, but he knows they’re getting worse. Waking up sweaty, shaky, and panicked isn’t easy to hide, especially as they move from once to week to almost every night.

Genocidal war lords, evil kings, and corrupted Bakugan are one thing to fight, but his own head? That’s not something he can just punch his way through. He can’t fight back and the fear is threatening to drown him. He can’t do this alone anymore. He needs his friends, his parents, and he needs Shun, even if he’s scared of how fast his heart beats around him these days.

How’s a hero supposed to ask for help? He’s supposed to be invincible. He’s supposed to always get back up.

So, what happens when he can’t?

An alternate timeline for the first half of Mechtanium Surge, wherein the villain isn’t a man behind a mask or a monster in the shadows, but instead the trauma that Dan never processed.

Main Ship will be Dan/Shun, other ships that are possible but not yet finalized include Julie/Jake (She deserves a cute himbo to love her), Runo/Alice (I know Alice is gonna be here, dunno about Runo), maybe a little Marucho/Ren, maybe. We’ll see. Keith/Gus will be a thing, but the prevalence will depend on other factors as I go.

Things to Note:

Yes the title is cheesy as hell and I love it to bits

Fic will be Rated T and contain my usual mix of mild innuendo, coarse language, and various traumas.

I am very ride or die for Shun/Dan. I have many feelings about their friendship and romance and everything about their dynamic. I’ve shipped these boys since season 1 when I was a wee baby.

Julie, Jake, Ren, and Alice will all be returning to supporting roles. I haven’t decided on Runo yet.

Rafe and Page will be joining the cast, like they did in this arc.

There is no Mag Mel and no Razenoid.

Yes Mechtogan are still a thing.

Anubias and Sellon are ex-POWs who came to Interspace to battle. They will have full arcs. Anubias will be a gay disaster. He may end up dating Ben. We will see.

Shun’s hair is longer than in canon (think is MS2 arc hair, maybe a little longer than that). Yes it is important to me that you know this.

Everyone is queer to some extent. That is how I roll.
