Motorcycle Club (AU)
SHIPPING MEME

In real life, motorcycle clubs that are truly "gangs," or "1%," are no laughing matter, a part of a dark and seedy underbelly that's far from pretty. Like with many cultural establishments with less-than-stellar reputations, though, fiction has romanticized these fringe fraternities with shows like Sons of Anarchy. To be fair, the life itself lends to the idealized: spending time on the open road, answered very little to very few, being able to take matters of life and liberty into your own hands, cloaking yourself in leather and tattoos and denim and the very essence of Americana. It all screams freedom and a wild lifestyle.

Equally wild and even more passionate is the love lives individuals involved in the motorcycle club lifestyles. When danger's at your back, it's good

PROMPTS

old lady: Or old men, because why not. Essentially, the official significant others of members, and it's all very serious - with some bikers even viewing their lover as property. They may wear the biker's jacket or ride on the back of the motorcycle.
brothers/sisters in arms: You know you're always there for each other, like family. Why not take things to the next level?
mechanics: They fix up the bikes. They may just fix up your heart, too.
civilian: The person you care for the most isn't in the life you can't leave.

( lucius rides bitch. )

[Riding name "Padfoot. Probably belongs to the "Marauders" club. Don't ask him about his family; brother-in-arms and/or mechanic, probs.]

["Lila." Nobody's Mama. Might be persuaded to be a Sweetie or eventually an Old Lady, but she loves the road first and foremost.]

[Mechanic, but used to be pretty hot shit back in the day. Hell's Angels give him space to pass.]

[Avengers biker gang AU? Up for anything really.]

[Mechanic, just fixed his umpteenth bike, and is getting a tattoo so people know he knows his business. OTA for fun, m/m for shipping]

[ "Junior." Not actually a member of a club with criminal activities of any sort - a member of the Phoenixes, headed by his father and re-branded from the Marauders, headed by his grandfather. They're those bikers that go around doing good deeds and charity work but still somehow get a bad rep because Media. ]

( naturally harley quinn rides a harley davidson, totes that diamond 1% patch on every jacket she owns, and has the temperament to match her reputation. also a weiner dog )

[miles was a man of many talents, some more known than most. charismatic speaker, fearless leader, expert in all things caramel, and handsome to boot. he knew how to regale a crowd of nobles, how to write an editorial worth reading, how to balance a budget, and how to handle a sword. the guy was #blessed, honestly. but people knew these things about him, and thought "wow, this guy is going places".

the only place he wanted to go to, though, was a garage on the opposite side of the city from where he lived, in a shady part of town, where sweat poured from people like money didn't. appearance-wise, he doesn't fit in, but in heart? he's just like the rest of them. he's just trying to do something he loves, in a way that'll help others out, carving a spot for himself in the world. sure, he's got his main job, but reporting on the injustices of the world? doesn't make a whole lot of people happy. fixing up machines, though... that does.

he'd watched the way his grandmother interacted with the military scientists and their creations come to life, how his mother's eyes lit up when she was working with metal and making art with energy, when he worked with the war machines he commanded, tinkering with them to make them better. the sounds of engines, the feel of steel, the sight of a monster being tamed by his own hands. that's what miles wants. that's what he wants to give.

so, after a meeting with the head of the broadcast company, he heads over to the garage, hoping to see some regulars, unwind just a bit. a wrench and a car engine could do that for him. for a while, he's meddling with his own ride, just to see if he can make his baby run smoother. no one's come to visit him yet... but while he's messing around, a shadow enters the garage from outside, paired with the sound of boots on pavement. he looks up from his work, and smiles. his favourite regular has arrived.]

Miss Quinn. [too formal for her, for what they have. it's funny to him, though, and that's why he says it.] To what do I owe the pleasure? [what a stupid question. what a stupid boy. she's not some stranger. he knows her in WAYS.]

[ota; she's in the club, obviously]

[ota; 'nuff said]

Edited 2016-10-28 05:19 (UTC)

[f/f; most likely a member of the club, but let's talk]

[Most likely a civvie]

[Leader of a biker gang called Valkyries. Recently they've started recruiting guys, too.]

[#canon]

[President or ride-or-die sergeant at arms. Open to shipping and OTA for gen!]

[Bartender, probably MC adjacent. ]

[Young biker punk with an enormous stupid crush on the hot bartender?]

[Probably MC adjacent, or a nomad from a defunct MC who rides with her brother. ]

[Not officially linked, but does some occasional work on their bikes. ]

[Ahaha this isn't even AU for him...]

[Yes??????????]

[all of these prompts are great, come at me.]

( f/m, m/f. i see him as a civilian running a bar and minding his own business, until the local biker gang made it their spot. he'd be annoyed by that if he weren't head over heels for a badass biker chick. canonmate-wise i'm most interested in bobbi, but i could also see him going hearteyes for sharon or natasha. ota for crosscanon. )
