My theory is that when Butcher visits Ryan in season 3 episode 1 when they’re playing connect four when Ryan said that he had a nightmare that his Dad aka Homelander that will kill him and destroy the world I couldn’t find the scene in 4K I’ve could put a link down in the comments of scene on yt so I’m thinking isn’t Homelander bc maybe that Butcher kills Ryan and Homelander destroys the world. But I’m thinking that when Butcher becomes a villain probably end of Season 4 like if he end making the Compound Virus found out it can kill every Supe or maybe humans as well. So I’m thinking that Butcher is main villain in Season 5 like maybe ik this seems a long shot but like Homelander might team up with the Boys and some of the members of Seven could join The Boys or they might die. So I’m think what could happen is that maybe Ryan see the footage of Becca got Raped by Homelander like Butcher shows him than he will turn on Homelander what he’ve done to his mother aka Becca, than like maybe Butcher will be the one to kill Ryan maybe with the Virus to test it and than Homelander finds out than kill Butcher probably rages destroy the whole world.

Anyone got any good Frenchie fanfic recommendations??

I'm looking for angsty dark and depressing 🤣 preferably looking into his past abuse and internal stuggle.

Love his character and the softness within the hard exterior just think he deserves some indulget angst.

Thanks in advance 🤠

I don’t know anything about the show but have recently been seeing more people talk about it on social media. Seems to be a hot show right now. Honest opinions, should I watch the show? And what is an overall synopsis of what it’s about?

I had the idea that if Homelander was raised by Homelander he would be abused and traumatize him.So when he grows up and becomes the Liberator instead the Homelander. And he essentially reveals compound V and Vought lies.Which leads to a Supe civil war with The Liberator leading one side and Soldier Boy Leading the other.

So just an idea id thought of, not gone too deep down the rabbit hole and probably not something id finish or publish so feel free to use. Using the show as a basis because I can't find the full comic story beyond clips But basically I was thinking of possible characters that could fit within the world (without being op like a superman/omniman overdone thing) and yet still stand up to homelander and I remembered that violence isn't the only way in The Boys because at least for the start Vought is in control and public opinion is the strongest power at least until whats been shown. So similar to how Stormfront was introduced but in a different direction, or even at the same time I would introduce a 2nd character who would replace Ashley as the coordinator for the 7, they would reveal that they are Supe as well with a technopath ability (Machine telepathy), upon returning to the tower the new technopath has laid off all vought staff on surveillance, tech support and communications jobs which removes all non super from the floor except janitors and says they are able to perform all these jobs themself. Instead of being a member of the 7 in active combat they would serve as the logician. But the main idea I had in my head would be a scene where the technopath checks homelanders behaviour only to get threatened by the latter. Noir steps in as Homelander says he doesn't need Noirs help but Noir stands in between homelander and the technopath as it is explained that total cyber control is a greater asset to vought than poster boy I hadn't really decided any like gender or general identity stuff for this character, was gonna avoid making them a girl because I dont wanna give HL a love interest, other hand a HL simping for the handler that tells him straight fits the character, whereas if I make them male id either go with a Tyler Durden-esque toxic gamer personality or complete opposite and have him be a somewhat emotionless workaholic that constantly tries to improve efficiency Idk if it'd work but lmk if you think it sounds good and I might see if I can get an actual story out

(set a few months before V was revealed to the public)

About 15 years ago, several powerful mafia families all got their hands on a smuggled supply of V. Approaches varied: some "adopted" kids from orphanages who didn't have any traceable family, some wanted their own heirs to grow up more... powerful... than most, the more fucked-up (and/or just rly rich) crowds made use of any undesirable or accidental children.

a decade and a half on, these often vast disparities in class and origin haven't stopped these kids from agreeing on one thing: they don't want to be weapons. Independently or in small groups, they've run away- and now the supe kids of various mafia families are teaming up to seek out and take down whatever dark secret their "Families" are hiding.

The Boys: Jersey City

(in the interest of full disclosure, this concept started as a The Boys/Batman Court Of Owls Arc crossover fic)

This character in twd looks oddly like narator from the boys

Existe una escena dónde Queen Marvel visita a su novia Elena por primera vez y conversan, dónde Queen Maeve le explica que la extraña y que no sabe que hacer. Lo que quería saber en qué capitulo de la serie aparece esa escena o la conversación de ambas?

I have tried looking for the characters 'super hero' origins but even the wiki hasn't given me much only that their design is based on X character but I am looking for more specifics about voughts made up origins for the supes.

What should have happened instead:

Soldier Boy driven by the memory of his own father decides to do better for his son and aligns with Homelander. Betrayed by their only weapon, The Boys now face an insurmountable threat of these two immortal supes united against them. They battle. Hugie tries to bolster Starlight’s power from the control room but Homelander lasers down the lights. Kimiko tries to put the mask on Soldier Boy but gets knocked out by Homelander who breaks the canister and the gas spreads; Kimiko is hit by the very poison Frenchie made and she’s debilitated by it. Homelander taunts Annie that he’s going to do Hugie like Supersonic as he floats menacingly over her. He charges up his laser eyes to burst Annie but Queen Maeve slides in and blocks the blast.

From the control room, Hugie remembers that Soldier Boy goes nuclear when he hears Russian pop music. He sees the chance. Boil the V out of Annie’s blood but stop Homelander. Just as The Boys are bested and about to lose, Russian pop music plays. Soldier Boy blacks out and goes nuclear. Maeve jumps on top of MM and Frenchie to shield them from the blast. Everything goes white. Vought Tower erupts in a fireball on the top floor and glass rains down onto the hapless citizens below filling the streets with blood and viscera. Vials of V and TempV also rain down into the streets.

It’s over. Maeve, Homelander, Starlight are all powerless. Kimiko retains her powers as Annie dove over her in the last moment to help Kimiko keep hers. Important as without it the neurotoxins would have killed her but instead have only disfigured her. Frenchie now has to live with this reminder of what he did to Kimiko with his chemistry and she has to deal now with having powers but being disfigured, ruining her fantasy of being a big broadway star.

Soldier Boy escapes. The Boys are reeling. But Homelander is neutralized. He’s no longer a threat just a man. Grace contracts The Boys to hunt down Soldier Boy. Maeve enjoys her powerless life with Elena. Starlight now has to deal with being powerless and having Hugie be the one that took them. The dynamic of their relationship becomes now about this concept of now neither of them have powers and how does that affect Annie next season now that she really is just one of The Boys.

A Vought helicopter landing in the night. A blur of light. Then seconds later, A-Train appears holding Ryan. The door to the copter opens and Homelander is waiting in a suit.

The central conflicts of next season resolve around a powerless Homelander raising Ryan to just like he was. Butcher is torn on his pursuit of Soldier Boy for Grace, his own agenda to find Ryan, and his race against the clock.

The final scene shows the Ashleys watching the security footage. They watch as everyone escapes the wreckage of the tower. On his way out, Butcher grabs something from the ground before jumping into the van to escape. The closing shot is Butcher alone on the roof of the Flatiron building looking at the vial of V he pocketed. A storm brews in the distance.

What if Homelander successfully awakened the paternal instincts in Soldier Boy? What if Soldier Boy refused to fight HL and turned against Butcher and his gang or better he decided to take HL and his son and disappear?

Why? Fuck if I know man

black noir used the old buster beavers pizza as a hideout not only because it would attract practically nobody but because it gave him a tinge of nostalgia making his return after a mission regarding soldier boy he saw the eagle who played soldier boy on the “play” he was the only one he could see “back from the big fight huh?” of course noir couldn’t talk, but simply nodded “nice, the others are busy right now, but I got nothing to do” the eagle sees how frustrated noir is “from what I’m seeing, you really didn’t ’fight’ him did you?” noir simply slowly nodded, it was less of a fight and more of a beatdown but still, he wanted more than that the eagles suddenly is given a new idea “say, I have an idea to release your frustration” he winks as well noir simply nods, after all, it could be interesting “good, wait for me by the arcade machines” the eagle responded after a few moments, the eagle showed up wearing the costume that made him look like soldier boy “ready to give soldier boy the beat down he deserves?” noir simply nods, but there was a different idea in his mind “ remember, do what you think is necessary, just don’t kill me” Noir immediately wrestled “soldier boy” to the ground, and pull down the eagles pants “what the fuck are you doing?” The eagle, playing as soldier boy said “oh I see, we’ll what are you waiting for?, jam it in ya Fuckin pussy.” noir simply just lowers his pants , and soon shoved his dock into the eagles ass soon he began to fuck the eagles ass like a jackhammer “ yeah that’s it! Show me how much you hate me, keep it up noir” after a thirty minutes of very intense hate-sex, noir blew his load inside the eagle “whoa, that was a lot man” the eagle finally said, breaking character soon noir and the eagle passed out after the session little did either know, buster beaver and crew walked in on them, but both were lost in a mixture of hate and lust.

DISCLAIMER: I enjoyed the finale, and even the decisions I wasn't the biggest fan of can easily be redeemed in S4 if they so choose. Also I know very well I could not make this show half as good as the people behind it do, these are just some ideas I had.

- Homelander doesn't kill Black Noir, just embraces him and says "I forgive you"

I feel like this would've shown some growth on Homelander's part, applying the minimal skills he learned as a father from last season (since that is very important in this episode) for someone that he considers family. Also this would avoid giving Black Noir such an abrupt and incomplete ending.

- Something different about the scene where Maeve switches sides

Maeve switching sides isn't the problem with the scene, I just can't think of the name of where they are lol. I'm not crazy about how so many of them are prioritizing stopping Solider Boy when Homelander is the worse threat, especially when Annie has had to deal with him every day. I'm thinking either have them come to an understanding at first (clear the building then fight Homelander) or maybe just get rid of this scene and have them all meet first at the Tower. If doing the latter, I'd say also don't have Frenchie give MM the Novichok in the beginning, to still give Frenchie a reason to need to be in the lab.

- Kimiko vs Black Noir

I'm thinking Black Noir listens to Homelander and isn't trying to kill Soldier Boy at first, but the Boys instead. He finds Frenchie, MM, and Kimiko in the lab. MM is there to destroy all the Compound V (permanent & temporary) in the lab, as he truly believes that no one should have that kind of power. While Frenchie makes the Novichok, our two silent characters duke it out. BN delivers a killing blow to her once or twice, but her healing factor allows her to take the fight overall, removing his helmet but not killing him. As he lies there, he hears Frenchie tell Kimiko that he has the Novichok and BN recognizes that as the vapor that can knock out SB. Somehow also utilize his animated friends to convey this message.

- Soldier Boy becomes the priority when they all see his bloodlust towards Ryan is equal to his bloodlust for Homelander. Butcher sees a lot of his own father in SB.

I feel like this is a bit better of a way to give Homelander some plot armor in the final fight. Instead of just having half the characters believe that SB is more important to stop, let them see firsthand that he might be just as awful as Homelander deep down. This may still not be the most logical decision, but in the moment with a child's life at stake, logic can be thrown out the window.

- Soldier Boy uses his beam to de-power Homelander and kill Maeve

First off, I am just really intrigued by the premise of Homelander being forced to be a normal human being. MM destroying the V would at least keep him de-powered for a bit. HL protects Ryan from the incoming beam, ideally somehow it's made clearer to the audience that Ryan wouldn't survive the blast, so Maeve pushes him out of the way and gets hit by it. Tbh, I'd also be fine with it if she's just knocked unconscious for the rest of the scene and de-powered, so she still gets her happy ending with Elena. That didn't bother me personally, so either one works there.

- Soldier Boy vs the Boys

We still get a big fight between SB and the Boys now that Homelander is subdued. Starlight's power up scene does more damage to SB. Kimiko, Frenchie, and MM show up with the Novichok. Annie, Butcher, Kimiko, Hughie, and Frenchie hold Soldier Boy down while MM still gets to hold the Novichok over his mouth. This almost works until SB breaks free and begins to start another beam aimed at the Boys until...

- Black Noir sacrifices himself to stop Soldier Boy

This would be a much more proper ending for Black Noir in my opinion, getting to be the one to take down Soldier Boy. The way they did it with Queen Maeve wasn't bad, but she had no bone to pick with SB. Afterwards, Butcher has Homelander at his mercy, but Ryan saves his dad by convincing Butcher to spare him. HL and Ryan still walk away from Butcher together, mirroring the scene from S2 finale, which I thought was excellent.

- The ending with Homelander and Ryan

There's lots of interesting places to possibly take this. Without powers, Homelander will learn something that Starlight already learned before him: his real power isn't laser eyes or flight. It's his influence. This is something that he will take advantage of as he continues to lie to people, and the public does not know he is powerless. His suit has muscle pads. As Ryan is undoubtedly entering his moody teenage years, Homelander could have a tough time raising him without powers in S4, and would get to learn what it's been like for other people to be in the same room as him in the past. The scene at the very end would have to be a bit different, so let's say the Starlight supporter chucks the can at Homelander, and it actually hurts him. Then Ryan is the one who lasers them. The crowd cheers and Homelander smiles with his son.

Those are my thoughts. I know it's far from perfect, and might not even turn out as good. I really love this show, and even if the finale didn't 100% land for me, I'm still super excited to see where they go in season 4. Hopefully this didn't come off as overly critical. Let me know what you like or hate about my stupid mind lol.

Hey i have just gotten into ‘The Boys’ but alot of the story has been spoiled for me lol

Anyway I really wanna do an rp about it, i have a plot for a romance but it can be changed to a action + romance involving Billy, Starlight, Maeve and maybe Stormfront

I have been role playing for many years now and give around 4-10 normally but i will always try to match your own lines

My only request is that you dont do one lines and try to he detailed about it,

YOU DONT HAVE TO BE BILLY! Reading back i realised it seems like i only want billy rpers but if you want to be somekind of OC or another CC then by all means go for it^^

First off this season has been incredible and even the last episode had a lot to like, but I feel like they could have stuck the landing a little better. Here’s my alternative version of events.

Everything is the same in the episode up until the fight in Vought tower. As Butcher is fighting Soldier Boy.

SB: “What the fuck are you doing? I thought we had a deal. Are we going to finish this or what? Grab the brat and get out of here. I need some one on one time with my boy.”

[Butcher hesitates but realizes this is what needs to be done and takes the still unconscious Ryan and leaves]

[SB joins Maeve as she is fighting Homelander and SB starts to glow. Maeve realizes what is happening and looks to Starlight for help. She pulls SB and HL towards the window and signals to SL.

Hughie sees what’s going on on the camera and boosts the power again and Starlight lets loose a burst of energy that blows SB, HL and Maeve though the glass and and like a quarter mile away from the tower. Displaying an actually impressive use of SL’s powers.

Maeve and SB then fall straight down and HL tries to fly away but his powers are leaving and he slowly falls out of the sky into alley on top of a bum sleeping. ]

Bum: “What the hell asshole? That was my house. ”

HL: “Don’t you know who I am? Find somewhere else you disgusting rat. “

[Bum starts punching HL and HL tries to laser him with his eyes but can’t. He then punches back and it hurts his fist. He looks stunned and confused then the bum proceeds to beat the shit out of him.]

[Cut to Butcher loading Ryan into a car and Ryan wakes up and leaps into the air and can actually fly. He gets away before Butcher can stop him. ]

[Cut to MM, Frenchie, Kimiko, SL, and Hughie looking for SB and Maeve. They are both unconscious and MM proceeds to beat on SB with everything he has but can’t put a scratch on him. ]

MM: “Why can’t you just die you son of a bitch!”

[The rest of the gang looks at each over and pulls MM back]

Frenchie: “I’m sorry my friend but we’ve got to get out of here. “

[Back to HL with no one to go to for help and nowhere to go he heads to the only place he can think to hide, Black Noire’s place.

He breaks into BN’s home and sees how messed up the guy was and then finds a wall of news clippings of BN and HL and he realizes how this guy was his only true friend in the world and he killed him. HL breaks down into a fit of rage and self loathing. Feeling sorry for himself he pledges to do anything it takes to get his powers and son back and kill Butcher]

[The next day Ryan is looking for his father and is marveling over being able to fly for the first time. He flies to Vought Tower where pro HL and SL protesters are all over and lands in front of the crowd]

Pro HL zealot: “ Who are you? Do you know where Homelander is?”

Ryan: “I’m Ryan… Homelander is my… my dad… I don’t know where he is. That’s why I’m here.”

Pro SL guy: “Your dad is an out of control bigot. He’s the worst piece of shit to happen to this world. ”

[Ryan agues to defend HL and is slowly getting more and more angry. The guy keeps pushing him and Ryan finally lets out a burst of laser vision melting the guy. Ryan burst into tears and is in shock at what he’d just done. Then the crowd rallies behind him and starts cheering. Camera pans around at the crowd as they praise and congratulate Ryan and his shock slowly turns into a satisfied grin]

[Mid credits cut to CIA agent with SB still kept unconscious with his fate unknown. ]

End.

They could still include the scene of Butcher at the Dr., Maeve recovering, SL joining the Boys officially, and Victoria Neuman getting the VP nomination as those were fine as is.
