Ugh, when is PW this year, anyway? Any hope we actually manage this by then?
THE PLAN:
With OCD incoming!
THE PLAN:
- Mara poses as Audrey for PW. Finds Duke at the welcome picnic? Immediately flirts/constantly touches him (secretly filling him with aether)
- Duke warns Lucifer and Octavia via text. They all meet together (at the boat? in the park?) to tell her to fuck off
- Audrey breaks through Mara's hold for a hot minute. Duke re-manifests Jordan's trouble out of defensiveness and they learn that his troubles can affect her
- Mara gives up the pretense and admits she's primed Duke to explode if Octavia doesn't open a portal to her home world right the fuck now. Lucifer(?) sets up a Portalocity portal to trick her into instead.
- Mara goes through the portal into whatever random not-her-home-world-or-Haven dimension it opened to. Portal shuts. OT3 has a quiet moment of "fuck yeah, that's over" (with Duke trying not to ruin it with his "okay, but also Audrey" angst)
- Duke FUCKING EXPLODES. Lucifer flings himself (and his beautiful wings) on him like he's a grenade and absorbs most of the troubles. One or two maybe escape and Octavia pounces on them, troubling herself(?).
- Duke passes out, they take him home, we have some angsty h/c times before moving on to PART TWO -- later, when we get this sucker going pretty well first
With OCD incoming!
Season four preplay: Crush and William
Nov. 15th, 2022 12:20 pmCrush
1. For me to prewrite Wade's little funeral. He runs across the pressure bubble on the way back to the marina.
2. Duke calls Tavi and Luce while helping Jack get Vince and Dave to the hyperbaric chamber. They meet them at the other end of the marina. Someone points out that Jack's a deep sea diver and this is a trouble that mimics the deep sea, we learn that the Driscolls are never troubled. (Because in all of Haven history not a one of them has married a troubled woman, sure.) Nathan and Audrey show . . . at some point . . . and Jack flips out, his trouble going off. They get him into the hyperbaric chamber and find out he's been attacked by the person altering troubles.
3. Duke tells Nathan and Audrey he's leaving again (maybe implies that he doesn't plan to come back). Nathan gets mad, they fight, Duke's lack-of-trouble is revealed. More yelling. Audrey gets a call about the pressure bubble from Aiden downtown and there's a lot of "how can we even stop this??" and Lucifer goes "for fucksake and goes to punch out Aiden.
4. Not sure how Nathan gets turned back around to "you're one of the least selfish people" actually so maybe we won't worry about that line. Jennifer might still call Duke a hero though. Nathan and Audrey head off to make out, etc., and Vince and Dave show up to go all "GREAT EVIL!" so they have to go make sure that Audrey doesn't kill Nathan. (Maybe Nathan notes that he's going to try to get Audrey to kill him? Like in a "it's fine, you can leave and be done, I'll make Audrey end the troubles for good" or something). So they run to stop Audrey from killing Nathan (the great "she really is Audrey!" reveal to the town squirrels.
Crush
5. Nathan gets a call from Dwight revealing that he's been abducted, they ride in to save him.
6. Trouble balls at the police station! Octavia is already mega uncomfortable but she's sticking close to Duke as much as he'll let her because he's clearly all broken and shit, so she's still with him anyway? Everyone except Audrey, Duke, and Lucifer gets trouble-balled.
7. Octavia loses her entire shit while Duke gets a call that someone's busted into the Sanguine Moon. Duke and Lucifer reluctantly split up to try to handle both things.
8a. Lucifer finds and talks down Octavia (or at least wrangles her)
8b. Duke and Dwight on the bluff with Wade's grave (prewritten by me)
9. Everyone's back at the station. CHAOS! Then suddenly the trouble balls come out of everyone's ears. Heavy and Sinister are missing from the cells. Audrey goes off with William, our trio go "fuck this shit we're out" and skip town to go lick their wounds.

Season four preplay: Lay Me Down
Sep. 7th, 2022 01:49 pm1. Duke gets a call from Nathan to say "Duke get your ass back here Wade's activated." -- Also feat. Lucifer and Octavia
2. Duke, Octavia, and Lucifer arrive in Haven, find out only [wild handwaving because Haven is terrible at timelines] number of days has passed even though it's been months for them. Jennifer says she's settling in okay on the Sanguine Moon and is applying for a job at the Haven Herald. Duke is all "uhhhhh. . . . 'kay, that's a choice that I support I guess". Jennifer is adorkably awkward about being nervous for the interview. Wade arrives at the Gull to grab cleaning products and is cagey about the reasons. "Soda spilled in my car." He claims that he understand the trouble is terrible and isn't going to let it take over. Duke tries to talk him through it, but Wade just shoves him off and promises to head out of town. Duke tries to pretend he believes that this trip might be an easy one. Also there is a day-time drunk sleeping on the bench outside the Gull. FOR PLOT REASONS.
3. Later that day, Dwight comes by the marina to tell Duke that the drunk died mysteriously at the police station. Duke remembers Freddie, the drunk, was into watching bear documentaries at the Gull. Dwight asks about Jordan, wonders aloud if Wade's involved. Duke says no way. -- Lucifer and Octavia are welcome to join in or not
4. Duke dreams about trying to talk to Wade about their trouble and getting attacked when he gets a papercut. Wakes up when dream!Wade slashes him with a knife to discover GIANT KNIFE WOUND ON HIS ARM! Octavia has her own injurious dream. Lucifer freaks out/fusses over them.
5. Lucifer tries to insure Duke and Octavia stay awake. Audrey decides to compare Nathan and Duke's activities the day before since they both got hit by the trouble and survived. They make the connection to the Herald and call Dwight -- too late, he gets shot in a dream. We can also have Nathan fill the OT3 in on the non-dream murders at the same time.
6. Duke takes advantage of Dwight being sedated in the hospital to check what he's looking into, finds info on the murder with the broken knife. Puts two and two together and figures out it's Wade. This can happen off screen. He and Lucifer (and maybe Octavia?) head to the local boat rental he knows Wade used and gets access to the boat he used. He follows the GPS along the coast and finds Wade's dumping grounds, including Jordan's remains.
7. While Audrey and Nathan defuse the trouble, Duke, Lucifer, and Octavia go after Wade, stop him from offing a guy at a local bar. Wade goes all high and mighty, Duke yells at him. Wade tries to pull the "brothers" card to keep from being turned in. "You killed all those people, Wade. That's on me now, too." Wade threatens to expose Lexie's secret so the Guard tries to make Audrey kill Nathan. Lucifer knocks Wade out so they can lock him up on the Sanguine Moon.
8. Octavia guards Wade on the Moon while Lucifer and Duke try to figure out where to stick him and arrange their travel back to Fandom. Wade escapes and he and Octavia fight. Octavia is winning until Wade manages to draw blood and gets the upper hand. Enter Duke and Lucifer. Lucifer goes to Octavia to try to staunch her bleeding while Duke takes on Wade? (Since Duke can't interact with Octavia's blood and all. Maybe Wade managed to open her dream wound and it's worse than just a little cut.) Wade throws himself on Duke's knife and dies. The Crocker trouble dies too.
9. Duke wraps Wade's body in a tarp. When Duke reaches for Octavia's wound, she flinches back. Duke internalizes the SHIT out of that even though it's a natural move if they've been used to trying to keep their blood off him. Lucifer suggests they clear out, Duke agrees, so long as he can bury Wade first. He asks them not to tell anyone about the murder. Luce and Tavi are probably like "whatever, we don't want to talk to any of these people anyway."
