A Mayhem of Colors: A convoluted mass-crossover AU loosely based on Turnabout!
So, as I've said, this is inspired by Turnabout, but it's a crossover. This means almost none of the characters you'll be seeing are originally from Homestuck. Instead of going with the opposite color, I'll be going with similar colors, and deciding which ones work for FGs and Carapacians based on certain factors like suits (Jack=Black, HB=Red, DD=Pink, CD=Gray) and other such associations. So, let's go over specifics...
1.) This AU is heavily based on crossing over as much as I can. As such, there are no repeats on any given franchise. For example, if I add a character from Undertale, I can't add a character from Deltarune. However, fanworks are considered separate, so if I add a character from Hexane, I can't add a character from Dungeons of Sunnydale or Scratchprone, but I can add a character from Homestuck or some other fanadventure.
2.) The colors I'll be using are the ones most prominently associated with the characters, so since Dave types in red, he'd get a character whose most-associated color is red, for example, Mario. Carapacians are a bit more complicated. I've already explained that I'll be using the colors corresponding to the Midnight Crew's quadrants, but as for the others... Well, we've only got the color of their moon and the color of their carapaces to work with at first glance. However, there are also exile wrappings to work with, namely their original ones, so WV's rag of souls makes his associated color white, PM's banner makes her associated color gold, and AR's caution tape makes his associated color yellow, for example. My only exception is the Kings will both be based on the same King character and the Queens will both be based on the same Queen character.
3.) Finally, as with Turnabout, characters will be genderswapped as necessary. Gender ratios will be kept equal for players, the Kings will be male and the Queens female, the Felt will be the same gender as the dominant Cherub who ends up as English, etc.

Jeff Egbert
"Corrupted"!Kidswap!Hecka Jef
chumHandle: gamerboiTecknichian / apprentiseVindicator

Land: Land of Shadows and Watermills
Guardian: Dad (often misspelled as "dadd")

Your name is Jeff Egbert, and as was previously stated, today is your BIRTHDAY. Said birthday takes place on 4/13, one of a few NUMBERS that tickle your fancy. 413, 612, 1025, 11 and such numbers tend to trigger your fascination with NUMEROLOGY, as they seem to appear EVERYWHERE for some reason. Numerology being one of your variety of INTERESTS. You've also taken to PRANKING due to the family you've been around. You can never afford to spend too much time that isn't ON YOUR TOES. It's like they're PREPARING YOU for something. Ugh, the STAIRS. Everyone must know the DANGERS of the STAIRS. In any case, you prefer to spend most of your time sat back, relaxing, and playing some VIDYA while eating some NANCHONS.
Your chumHandle is apprentiseVindicator and you are dislexic so plz dont be a h*cking jerk about the way u spell things.
TT: So... I was just informed that Mark is falling down the stairs after losing to his brother.
AV: what? dident i warn him about the stairs?
AV: i TOLD him dog!
TT: Yes, well, shouldn't you help him out?
AV: sorrie, makrios gonna need to wate for the end of the stairs to come. itll just keep hapening but one does not simplu stop the stairs. thats why i warned him.
TT: Right...
Okay, so this is my first attempt at a publicly-fleshed-out AU character I actually made the AU around. I figured I'd continue so many AUs use of the Egbert having a non-genetically-connected name, so as you may have noticed, I used his AV abbreviation from CANWC.
Living in a world where normal people don't talk like him has made him a bit more withdrawn than his canon self, on top of being a little bit more "boring" due to his lack of JPG'dness. He feels his life is going in circles sometimes, often finding himself trapped in endless cycles. Cycles he one day hopes to be able to break out of and ensure no one has to endure. This is why he's the Muse of Wheels; his quest is to break free of the Loops and allow progression. That said, he's still good at getting allies and the few true friends he makes are the ones that truly understand him. He also still has his sense of "justise".
This is why he chose his new chumHandle, by the way. Rather than being harassed by trolls or told he was doing something wrong, he was inspired by his patron troll to choose a handle that demonstrated his status as his patron's apprentice (misspelled, obviously); someone who would rise up and vindicate the trolls whose victory was unjustly taken from them. Hence apprentiseVindicator. On the other hand, his old handle, gamerboiTecknichian was because of his enjoyment of video games and the tactical prowess required to gain the Prankster's Gambit in the Egbert household. That's right, he confused the words technician and tactician. Don't be too hard on him, he was a little kid.
Yeah, despite everything, his Guardian's still good ol' Dad Egbert (or is it some other businessman? Hmmmm...). Not necessarily the same due to who raised him, though.
I decided to branch out from John's interests a bit, but still do a few things with a Hecka twist. For instance, instead of shitty movies, he likes shitty games and bootlegs. You'll see the posters for stuff like Sonic 06 and 7 Grand Dad (custom by himself since Joel hasn't talked about it yet). He did try coding once, but found it too boring and gave up.
Tara Lalonde
Hoofstuck!Equestria Girls!Twilight Sparkle
chumHandle: tenebrousThaumaturge
Classpect: Mage of Light
Land: Land of Rays and Labyrinths
Guardian: Mother
Fetch Modus: Index
Strife Specibus: Wandkind
Your name is Tara Lalonde and you're a SCHOLAR in all areas, especially the various types of SCIENCE. You stick to PRIVATE STUDIES. Partially because your MOTHER is far more brawn than brains. This ties into your INTERESTS. You are an aspiring INVENTOR, using the power of TECHNOLOGY to make the closest things you can to REAL VERSIONS of the sorts of things one would find in a FANTASY SETTING, including your TESLA WAND; a compact, battery-powered device that channels small, directed bolts of lightning. This is because you have a fascination with the world of FANTASY AND MAGIC, even though you know those things are FAKE AS SHIT. The STORIES are just so ENGAGING. You can never put down a good BOOK before you've finished it, even one that ISN'T FACTUALLY ACCURATE. You ORGANIZE AND PLAN EVERYTHING, mostly because you FEEL THE NEED TO ON A NEUROTIC LEVEL. It's KIND OF A PROBLEM, especially because you FREAK OUT when you don't know what to do.
Your chumHandle is tenebrousThaumaturge and As with everything else in life, you make sure the way you type is professional and proper. TT: I'm telling you, there's no such thing as magical ponies!
GG: Says The One Who Fights By Zapping People With A Magic Wand!
TT: It's a Tesla Wand, Kate. It's a scientific invention. Nothing more than an electrical device.
TT: It's a far cry from a faceless white horse with a green sun tattooed on its flank being capable of teleportation.
GG: I've Shown You Footage. Why Do You Continue To Deny That Maplehoof Is Not Just Some Pony With A Makeup Job?
TT: Because your "footage" has obviously made use of special effects!
TT: I don't know how gullible you think I am, but you'll have to do a lot better than that if you plan on fooling me!
GG: Fine. Be That Way.
GG: But When You Find Out It's You Who Has Been Stupid And Stubborn I Expect An Apology.
GG: I Suspect That Will Be A Decent Way Into The Game.
TT: Let me guess: The one that "Alters Reality," right? That load of horseshit?
TT: Pun intended.
GG: Bluuuuuuhhhhhh!!!
GG: Yes The One That Alters Reality! What Other Game Could Possibly Break Through The Unyeilding OCD Complex Of Tara "Smarter Than You" Lalonde?!
TT: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Complex.
TT: Can a disorder also be a complex?
GG: In Your Case, Absolutely!!! I mean, a purple intellectual? Come on, it was the obvious choice.
In any case, I've looked through a few interpretations of Twilight's Classpect and felt that Mage of Light would fit our purposes best. I decided to make her interests a mix of Pony!Twilight and Sci-Twi's, since they're technically two versions of the same person. I figured using technology as her magic would be the best path to take, and having her be the type to be skeptical of actual magic seemed suitably ironic.
Her chumhandle, tenebrousThaumaturge, is pretty straightforward. Tenebrous can mean dark, but in this case I'm using it to mean obscure. She considers herself little-known, and isn't exactly wrong about it.
Haven't decided who takes Jaspers's place yet... Maybe a hedgehog?
Yeah, I kinda suck at showing my work...
Mark Strider
Mariostuck!Mario
chumHandle: toadstoolGuardian
Classpect: Heir of Time
Land: Land of Castles and Hourglasses
Guardian: Big Bro
Fetch Modus: Item Block
Strife Specibus: Footwearkind, Hammerkind
Your name is Mark Strider and you fancy yourself an ADVENTURER, although you DON'T REALLY HAVE ANYWHERE TO GO OR ANYTHING TO DO OF THAT SORT. Instead you mostly TRAIN with your BROTHER so you can one day go on that adventure. You've also taken up PROGRAMMING. You like to make VIDEO GAMES, and to BE IN THEM.
Seeing yourself doing all those KICKASS MOVES on the screen, going out to SAVE A PRINCESS or some shit, that's your dream, and maybe you'll never live it in real life. But hey, your SELF-INSERTS can do it for you. No one seems to mind either. Your INDIE PLATFORMER SERIES has taken off like wildfire. It's often regarded as A BIT CLICHE and people have criticized the fact that it's gotten pretty FORMULAIC, but they all know that they're always gonna have fun when they play. That's your main priority. Of course, that's not to say you never BROADEN YOUR HORIZONS. You've also done RPGS, SPORTS GAMES, RACING GAMES, and you're about to get into the SIMULATION SCENE pretty soon. People have been anticipating your first step into the CORPORATE WORLD as well as SKAIANET's first step into the GAMING INDUSTRY, the SBURB BETA. You included. Hopefully it's everything you've HYPED IT UP to be. If not, you feel like it could be the END OF THE WORLD, but you're probably just exaggerating.
Your chumHandle is toadstoolGuardian and you just type and don't worry how it looks. TG: so do you understand it now?
AV:yeah i think i goti t. so i juts conect to tera then she get's me in and then you and kaet hav a loop rite?
TG: if everything goes according to plan.
AV: so what if kaets riht about the hole thign?
TG: that's why i said if. you know how she is, even if tara denies it as coincidence.
AV: ye shes' smart but her boringness get's in the way sometines.
TG: she's not boring she just overthinks things and reads books and stuff.
AV: ye sure
AV: i bet your just in denail about her cuz you wanna s*x her,
TG: dude. don't even joke about stuff like that.
AV: whatre yuo gonna do junp on my head?
TG: don't tempt me bro. I just realized I never got around to Mark's notes despite doing Kate's. Derp. Anyway, the Heir of Time is one of a few Classpects I've seen for Mario (another being Knight of Space; funny enough both share part of Dave's Classpect) and I thought it'd work pretty well.
Obviously, being a normal human teenager, he can't go around saving princesses and stomping mushrooms (not until he gets into the game anyway), so instead I had him be an indie game dev who's basically the creator of the Mario games in-universe, as well as giving him the whole training with Bro thing Dave had but as training for when the time comes to go on an adventure (adventure time, if you will).
What with his fascination with games, I felt it'd be a good idea to have him involved with the game's development, cooperating with Kate's Granddad's company.
His chumHandle's origin should be obvious both in and out of universe, as with his games about the Mushroom Kingdom, he has become known as said kingdom's hero. Adjust to fit the TG initials because we're making the initials match here and you get toadstoolGuardian.

Your name is Kate Harley and you live in a TOWER. You enjoy it because being high up brings you closer to the SUN. You love its light, probably more than anyone else you know. Too bad you're a morning person, since most of the FAUNA you've taken interest in are NOCTURNAL. These are only a couple of your HUGE VARIETY OF INTERESTS, of which you have so many that you have to wear REMINDERS to keep track of them, among other things. You've taken to VARIOUS TV SHOWS OF NOSTALGIC VALUE, oftentimes choosing ones that would seem A BIT CHILDISH. You also greatly enjoy material featuring the CREATURES OF MYTHS AND LEGENDS.
Your chumHandle is gilligansGloom and You Put A Bit Of Unnecessary Emphasis On Your Words. GG: I Suppose You Have A Point.
TC: I'm glad we're on the same page.
TC: jEFF IS TO BLAME FOR THE HELL WE'VE ALL GONE THROUGH.
GG: Well, I Wouldn't Word It Quite So Strongly.
GG: Sure He's My Server Player And He May Have Been Responsible For Maplehoof Being Prototyped, But...
TC: But what?
GG: But He's My Friend. He Wouldn't Just Go Killing People For No Reason.
TC: aRE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?
TC: Because let me tell you...
TC: i FEEL QUITE CERTAIN THAT MAKING ME EAT HIS GUN WAS PRETTY FUCKING DELIBERATE.
TC: I swear, if I ever see that JERK again...
GG: Okay Let's Not Overreact. I'm Still Not Even Sure I Can Trust That You're Telling The Truth.
GG: Shouldn't Your Primary Concern Be Beth Noire?
TC: She won't find us as long as no one does anything stupid.
TC: jUST MAKE SURE YOU KEEP HIM IN CHECK.
TC: It could be the difference between life and death for more than just him.
TC: i DREAD WHAT MAY HAPPEN IF HE FINDS ANY OF MY FRIENDS TO BE IN THE WAY...
GG: ...I Will Try To Keep That In Mind...
Here's Katie (don't call her that, she'll smack you). I decided to have her be more of an observer of fauna than a full-on furry. Instead she's more of a mythical creature enthusiast.
Her chumHandle's pretty straightforward. Gilligan referencing her stranding on an island as well as her enjoyment of classic TV (expansion on Jade's enjoyment of Squiddles) and gloom because she's a goth (at least in aesthetic).
And yeah, the Rosemary patron thing is still a thing here, albeit reversed. There's also a few hints to plot points: Jeff somehow interfering with the Trolls' session directly along with the Archagent, a paradoxical vengeance loop, the Archagent being female (not that significant, but as I'm not genderswapping any Midnight Crew members, it does narrow down which black-coded character it could be), and a subtle hint as to the nature of the cult on Alternia, and by extension what I plan to do for our English. Also, no, despite the similarities with Sober!Gamzee's quirk, Ruzice isn't murder mode. I have someone else planned for the murdercrazy acolyte. Let's just say this cult is far from purple-exclusive. They have members all across the rainbow.

Classpect: Knight of Rage
Land: Land of Necropolises and Oganesson
Guardian: Dad
Fetch Modus: Warioware
Strife Specibus: Skateboardkind
Your name is Lara Crocker and you are the RADDEST, CHILLEST, MOST SICKNASTY SK8R AND GAMER IN TOWN, as well as the heiress apparent to the entertainment giant and mass conglomerate of nearly every industry, the DISNEY corporation, by lineage of your GRAND DAD, who got some pretty UNREAL AIR and had some major POP CULTURE INFLUENCE of his own. All this in spite of his SPEECH IMPEDIMENTS and tendency to FALL DOWN STAIRS, if not BECAUSE OF THEM.
He taught your dad everything he knew about skating and later they learned about gaming together when it became a thing, and your dad taught you everything you know about both. Some consider you a bit of a DARK KNIGHT due to your immense skill and reflexes, to the point where you've been the subject of HORROR STORIES and URBAN LEGENDS.
You can't help but get a grin on your face at the allegations of cheating these guys give you when you make them RAGE. You grew up on Kaizo ported to a cartridge. Of course you've got great focus and reflexes. Speaking of sicknasty GAMING, you're greatly anticipating the new SBURB ALPHA one of your company's subsidiaries, SEGA, is launching today along with a rebrand that'll be happening soon.
Apparently because today, November 11, 2011, is 2x3prong day, whatever that's supposed to mean.
Your botherTag is gamrgrlGrindz and you talk however u want 'cuz that's just how the rad folks do it. TG: So you're sure you can trust this game? Even after all I've told you?
GG: hellz yeah, this shit's gonna b killer! ur just crampin' my style.
GG: c'mon, don't stomp my swag with all your glamourwitch nonsense.
TG: It isn't fucking nonsense. Why do you have to be so stupid? Luke knows I know what I'm talking about!
GG: luke's always goin' on about how he lives on an island with monsters and zombie goasts.
GG: c'mon, how HIGH do you think i am just to BELIEVE that nonsense?
TG: What'll it take to prove it to you? Should I use my appearifier ray to gank something from your house?
GG: yeah sure why not? we haven't released that to the public yet so if u can do that you're either a mad crazy thief gettin' your mits on one or you're really from the future. Okay, doing Alpha Kids before Land details and first up is Lara, one of the Crocker family who, through a bit of meddling from a certain alien empress who took over the company after a few family members "disappeared", ended up the branch of the family tree containing only known remaining "relatives" of Walt Disney. Yeah, the ways this timeline has changed should be pretty clear. For one thing, since Disney was a kid in the 1910s when the elder guardians' meteors fell, the Glamourwitch, as she would come to be called after the rebranding, would actually be acting as Walt's mother rather than his wife. Also, due to financial difficulties and more string-pulling, Sega was bought out by Disney at around the time selling the company to Microsoft was being considered.
But enough about her family and the history and lore, let's talk about Lara herself. She was influenced by her Grand Dad's reputation as a cool dude who had for a long time defined what it was to be cool, some say up until his death by a mysterious meteor, and this shows in her word choices and occasional deliberate misspellings. Hard not to when you're the progeny of the original meme.
Due to Latula's original way of speaking, I had her type kinda like your stereotypical 90s kid timelessly-dated type. And yes, it kinda hurt to type the word "swag" but let's face it she's totally the type of person who would use that word.
It should be obvious why she has the handle she does. And yeah, like Jane, she uses BettyBother. It's much less invasively popuptacular than the canon version; more just Trollian with some reskinning and a few banner ads. After all, unlike Jane, she's not so brand-loyal as to use a program she doesn't like over a superior one just because it's a particular brand.
