So anyways—

Dungeons and daddies season one au where everyone’s alive and happy

Instead of driving through a portal on the way to the soccer game, the Honda Odyssey just straight up crashes

The plot of the podcast is just this weird (maybe magically induced) shared dream between the dads while they’re unconscious right after the crash.

Everyone’s fine except the kids (who didn’t have the dream) are just weirded out by how different their dads are acting… and why they’re all suddenly best friends?

Grants got Daryle trying to get him to open up more and actually talk about their feelings

His dad also suddenly has gaydar

Terry has Ron who overnight has gained the ability to at least somewhat be a parent

Lark and sparrow are actually being wrangled by their dad for once (not without love, of course)

And then there’s Nick and Glenn. OH BOY

first of all, it’s the 2nd car accident in the Close family so they’re both a little freaked out for different reasons

And maybe Nick kind of uses it as an excuse for why his dad is suddenly trying to be a present parent in his life

And all the dads are freaking out because for the last few months they’ve had to deal with almost dying every day, loosing their kids repeatedly (or permanently if you’re Glenn), having magic abilities, facing childhood trauma, loosing the ability to wear pants, and running completely on empty

And now none of that is real and everything’s okay but also they’re kind of not

But hey, at least they’re better dads now…yay

Also in this AU, Glenn and Jodie (the real Jodie, not the realm dream AU Jodie) are estranged brothers because I think it’s really funny for Glenn to go through all of the weird dream-induced “Narcolas” stuff and have his first thought be “I need to get back in touch with my loser traffic cop brother.”
