comment
A Monster's Nature by phylos is an AU of the film Brightburn, starting when Brandon Breyer visits his classmate, Caitlyn Connors, to apologise for breaking her wrist.Where in canon Caitlyn rejected him out of fear, in this version of events she tentatively 'accepts' Brandon's apology, starting a new twisted chain of events that draws her closer to Brandon and simultaneously further from humanity, even as Brandon becomes that little bit more 'human' in the process.The fic can be found here and here.

Bizarre Alien Biology
 A Monster's Nature (Fanfic) / int_1161fb48
comment
Bizarre Alien Biology: An examination of Brandon affirms that some elements of his DNA defy categorisation by Earth science, although scientists speculate he might be able to breed with humans. After Brandon spends around three weeks being constantly gassed into unconsciousness and nearly starves to death, he quickly regains most of his lost weight by gorging himself on raw meat and other protein-rich foods.

Adaptational Villainy
 A Monster's Nature (Fanfic) / int_20f689e9
comment
Adaptational Villainy: Compared to canon and based on Caitlyn's perspective, anyway; the Breyers attempting to kill Brandon out of fear might be understandable considering his recent actions, but the Breyers asking a thirteen-year-old girl to kill their son for them is crossing several lines. It should be noted that this depends on the story making radical changes when it comes to Brandon's actions from canon so he'd be more sympathetic (and so Caitlyn's loyalty to him despite his actions would be less repulsive). In the movie, the Breyers each only resorted to killing him soon after Brandon murdered his uncle and left enough evidence behind to convince Kyle his son did such. In the fic, this is removed to just having the Breyers' attempts on Brandon's life happen without him ever killing a human before, even if he makes his intentions to do so clear.

Chekhov's Gun: Potentially applies to the shard of Brandon's ship that the Breyers gave to Caitlyn so that she could kill Brandon with it; Caitlyn loses track of the shard after that night until after she and Brandon escape from Project B2, and when she rediscovers it she takes it with her only until she can find some way to dispose of it.

comment
Brutal Honesty: Brandon and Caitlyn eventually establish this dynamic with each other, with Caitlyn in particular able to get away with her 'defiance' of admitting that she wishes Brandon was normal by conceding that if it's a choice between not having Brandon in her life and having him in her life while he kills people, she'd rather be with him (although she does request he not kill people in front of her any more).

Even Evil Has Standards: Depends a bit on whether Brandon should be defined as 'evil' or just warped, but in either case, while he resents Caitlyn rejecting his attempts to make their relationship sexual Brandon has never actually forced her despite how easy it would be for him to do so.

Homicide Machines: Caitlyn references reports of a machine killing people in South Africa, which the author confirms is intended to be an Expy of Cyborg; chapter 29 introduces this character directly, which identifies itself as AN-3, originally known as Symon Veers.

Boldly Coming: Basically applies to Brandon and Caitlyn, although Caitlyn initially turned down Brandon's 'offers' of sex as she didn't feel ready for that kind of intimacy yet. After a near-escape from a plane crash, they engage in a brief session of mutual masturbation, Brandon eats Caitlyn out and Caitlyn gives him a blowjob during their time in a hotel before they go to Greece, and they have sex for the first time around midnight on Brandon's fifteenth birthday when Caitlyn is consoling him after his first actual loss.

 A Monster's Nature (Fanfic) / int_3dcc914f
comment
Took a Level in Kindness: 'Kindness' may be an exaggeration, but at the very least Brandon accepts Caitlyn's request to show a degree of mercy when he's attacked. As a result, Brandon agrees to stop killing the opposing forces when none of the soldiers left are actively trying to shoot him any more, and his attacks on civilians have been limited to empty religious buildings rather than any occupied residences or businesses.

Adaptational Heroism: To a degree; Brandon still uses his powers primarily for his own 'benefit' (albeit with a relatively unrefined agenda), but considering that in canon he destroyed an entire plane just to cover up three deaths, it is significant that he takes care to keep Caitlyn safe when facing AN-3.

Morton's Fork: Chapter 44 ends with Xander, one of the Brightburn cult who has been revealed to be working with KC, realising that KC sent him into the cult with deliberately limited information and resources that wouldn't have been able to stop Brightburn if he realised who Xander really was; he can't just go back to the cult after basically trying to abduct Caitlin, but Caitlin's points make him realise that he can't trust that going back to KC would be safe for him.

 A Monster's Nature (Fanfic) / int_50b05d30
comment
Disproportionate Retribution: Brandon kills a boy Caitlyn had only gone out with a few times when she had every reason to believe that Brandon had abandoned her. However, on a wider scale his responses are comparatively more 'mellow' than they were in canon, as whenever he is attacked he only kills enough people to make the rest of the opposing force stop, and his destructive assaults are limited to empty buildings or religious structures rather than explicitly trying to kill large numbers of people.

Single-Target Sexuality: This seems to basically apply to Brandon, as even after various cults emerge worshipping Brandon, he has shown no interest in pursuing any female other than Caitlyn, to the point that he lets her get away with defying him on various occasions where he would just kill anyone else who contradicted him.

Lack of Empathy: As in the film, Brandon can't really emotionally connect to other people; even when he admits to Caitlyn that he can't take the thought of losing her, he just pays lip service to feeling sorry for her after the death of her mother (Caitlyn privately speculates that he still resented Erika's attempts to keep them apart), although he does show genuine concern for Caitlyn herself more than once.

Admiring the Abomination: Even when he learns that Brandon's coming to kill him, Doctor Morgan Bishop continues to be impressed by Brandon's abilities before any other response.

Shooting Superman: At one point Brandon let a missile hit him just to see what it would do to him, and even survives a nuclear explosion while just being thrown off-course for a minute or so, even if he cleaned himself off to protect Caitlyn from the potential nuclear contamination.

Armor-Piercing Question
 A Monster's Nature (Fanfic) / int_7b6e47a5
comment
Armor-Piercing Question: Most of the time Brandon can deflect Caitlyn's attempt to come up with one by focusing on the 'evidence' of his own superiority, but the idea of her leaving or getting killed forces him to verbally confirm that she's important to him, as well as a tentative concession that not all humans are worthless to assure her that she does have value to him despite his superiority.

Token Good Teammate: Granted, not much is shown of the Brightburn cult overall, but after Caitlyn believes Brandon has chosen the Witch over her, she gets help leaving Brightburn from Xander Williams, one of the cultists, who affirms to Caitlyn that she will always be his Lady. Arguably subverted when Xander turns out to be an associate of KC who infiltrated the cult on his employer's behalf.

Not So Stoic: For all of Brandon's usual emotional detachment, he appears genuinely scared at the thought of losing Caitlyn and looks at her with something that could be considered love, to the point of having a panic attack when he thinks he's left her in a coma while escaping a plane crash. Brandon even has a mini-breakdown when he admits during his reunion with Caitlyn that he actually does mourn the deaths of his parents, shakily affirming that he misses them even after they tried to kill him.

Berserk Button: Most of the time Brandon's acts of destruction are relatively impersonal, but any attempt to keep him and Caitlyn apart sets him off. In chapter 32, while Brandon was tolerating talking with the cultists and treating them in a civil manner, he becomes briefly outraged at the implication that they were taking precautions to ensure his safety as he is certain of his invulnerability.

Ineffectual Death Threats: Basically applies to anyone who suggests that they threaten to kill Caitlyn to try and get Brandon under control, as Caitlyn bluntly points out that if they kill her they would remove the only reason Brandon hasn't destroyed the world already.

Spotting the Thread: In chapter 29, both Caitlyn and Brandon independently realise that AN-3 is equipped with a force field.

Drama-Preserving Handicap: In chapter 29, Brandon essentially identifies Caitlyn as one, claiming that the only reason he didn't destroy AN-3 in their fight was because he didn't want to risk Caitlyn being injured in its destruction.

Dumbass Has a Point: Not explicitly stated, but considering Brandon's low opinion of any human that isn't Caitlyn, this arguably applies to him letting Michelle ask his cultists questions as she makes valid points.

Comically Missing the Point: When the President receives a call from Project B2 to get permission to detonate nuclear weapons to try and kill Brandon, even after hearing Brandon threaten to destroy Washington DC if nobody tells him where Caitlyn is right then, the president's immediate response is to express incredulity that 'Brightburn' has a girlfriend.

Innocently Insensitive: For a given value of 'innocent'; Brandon walls Caitlyn up in a stone structure for several hours to guarantee her safety while he burns his sigil over Brightburn just to make a point.
