@Margot Kix Thanks I am glad you also like the idea lol it seems Sburb as a board game is really popular! Well, I only have the 4 kids drawn so far lol but I had ideas for each troll as well. How the AU works is that its more or less a "Breakfast Club" kind of AU where they are all outcasts for some reason and so they all play the game together after school because they're all they have to hang out with.

In this AU John and Jade are siblings/cousins (I can't decide yet but their families know about one another in this AU there is no separation at birth shenanigans happening here!) So they have always been friends since they were kids. John's dad is just a normal guy. And Jade lives with her Grandpa. They're both into geeky or nerdy things. Jade likes science and is a Grade A Student, while John's into movies like Ghostbusters. They don't have a lot of friends besides Dave and Rose since they're seen as "nerds" lol </3

Dave lives on the same block as John in an apartment that's not well known to have good upkeep, so they became friends since John likes to hang out with him and thinks his music is cool. Dave's lonely because there aren't many kids who think hip hop or rap are cool, so he hangs out with John anyways.

Rose is the one who lives kind of far away from the rest of them, and she's a Goth who's really into poetry and novels. She's a bit of a rule breaker and is always in detention for some reason either because she was late to school or because she skipped class. Her mom is a rich lady who used to be a hippie in her youth, which Rose despises because of how flowery and "fake" the aesthetic is.

The trolls are also in this AU! Basically the trolls are from an "Alternative" school that's geared toward "troubled youth", but it shut down recently due to budgetary cuts. So they all had to go to different districts and the 12 Beta trolls go to the humans school. They're not aliens in this AU, so it's Humanstuck all over the place. The Trolls have a reputation of being scary rule breakers and "freaks" because of rumors about the school they used to come from being entirely run by the student body or whatever, but they're not like that at all! The 12 trolls were one class that just transferred to this school, so they've known each other for years prior. They're not used to wearing their own clothes to school since the Alternative school had uniforms (lol this is how I can still have the "they all look the same" rule even though they're human) so they just continue to wear the old schools uniform. Vriska is a fan of the same board game John likes (Sburb) and has made her class play it before.
