Man. When certain concepts/dialogue fits perfectly (mostly)

I mean, I’d like to think it’s pretty obvious which EGO is related to certain Abnos. But if not!

I've briefly talked about the Fixer AU before, but since that's old I'll restate it.

Similar to No Savior AU where Sy doesn’t intervene, but what if everyone became Fixers? The exception are the ones who were already Fixers in canon, of which they're made to go down a different path. To make it a bit more interesting.

So Finn, Ryn, Yoonjae, Eugene and Samuel will all be doing something else.

For Finley Lennox in particular… Well, I can't say much cuz it'll spoil the full extent of Finn's backstory, but the basic idea is:

The Red Room itself is an… extraction phenomenon. Quite a large one. What they exactly extract will remain a mystery for now. The Lennox Family, primarily Finn's parents, does the extracting. Though, they also do the "broadcasting live torture" on the side too. It's how they get their moolah.

Within Fixer AU…

The Lennox Family never dies, thus Finley was never taken in by Leonis and Caper/become part of Khimaira Office, and doesn't abandon the Lennox identity. Continuing the Red Room as the main operator.

Inherited his parent's cruelty.

But the retainers of Lennox Family consider Finley to be the kindest offspring so far.

Lost his right eye when a victim had attempted escape and attacked him. Finley decided to start training himself to prevent such an event from occurring again, instead of relying on the servants.

Hmm… It might be better to nickname Finley Lennox as Redrum Finn instead…

As for Asuka…

She did not know what she was getting into upon meeting Finley.

Has mixed feelings towards the Red Room and Finley. One's thing for certain, she does not enjoy witnessing the torture whatsoever.

She is made to clean up the messes afterwards. Becomes a bit numb to it over time, but gets it into her head that this'll help with not flinching whenever encountering any other horrid sights.

Does work outside of the Lennox Family estate occasionally. Fortunately, it's just for basic things like deliveries and retrieving gear.

It does make her wonder if these were tests of loyalty, as she's usually by herself… It makes her stomach churn at the thought.

Aside from that… I admittedly mostly put more thought into Finn and Asuka currently, so.

You know funnily enough, the blacked out text on Eugene was “from a Bloodfiend”. As I’ve been meaning for them to have a theme of “hunter”, then thinking “oh, like a vampire hunter”. And chose Rose Hunter as a basis, since they used Green Stem.
