It's been a year, 1979. Murdoc Alphonce Niccals had another chance at life, and he'd use it. His birthday was in a week, and being 13 meant he was a teenager...at least to his standards. If he was able to survive this year, maybe he could escape from his gutter of a home, and finally start living.

*set in 1978* Murdoc wasn't liked around his school, not anywhere really. He was 12 years old, and shorter than all of his peers. He was used to this torment, either from his father, or his classmates. But somewhere deep down, he still had hope for his future. He'd wreak havoc on this world of buffoons. (*TW* drinking/smoking, Language, depictions of Child abuse. Very small amount of vomit/blood.) If any of these topics are sensitive to you, I would advise not to continue reading.) *cover art by @Rabieshaverr on Yt*

After a nasty argument between Murdoc, 2-D, and Russel, Noodle wakes up to find out the band has split up, leaving her and Murdoc to live together. They both don't know much about "families", or whatever their situation is, or themselves. Changes constantly pile on top of each other, and they ultimately land themselves in a new life together, one that is more peaceful, loving, and personal.

Hauehuehuehuea! This is the story of how a man lived up to his name. Come along on his journey to understand how he became Murdoc Niccals.

Set in 1983, Murdoc needs an excuse to not be home, the neighbours down the street needing a babysitter is an easy way to achieve this and all he has to do is watch a 5y/o for a couple hours. What could go wrong? (I'm attempting to make it accurate to the time, but minimal effort is done to figure out timepieces, such as telephones and so forth) Mild warning for mentions of abuse, cigarettes, alcohol and drug usage in later chapters NOT 2Doc, 2D is literally 5 at the start of this. No.
