In your own space, put some favorite characters into an AU, fuse some favorite canons together, talk about your favorite AU/fusion tropes, or tell us why AU/fusions aren’t your cup of tea. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I really like AUs and have written a lot of them in the past.
The Musketeers Where Aramis runs an animal shelter
MCU Winterhawk - Where Bucky works in a coffee shop
Popslash -- Where Sparky Dancing Boys ride unicorns and live in post apoc world.
Countless stories in bandom that are AUs, vampires, creatures, gardeners, shelter workers, weres. Seriously, a vast number of my bandom stuff is AUs because I love the idea, what if. What if Gerard worked in a magical laundrette. What if Bob turned into a kid. What if Mikey was a supermodel and Frank his bodyguard?
But one of my favourites is, what if they were in Space!?
I love Space AUs, I've never done an actual fusion but putting the characters into space, oh heck yeah. I love imagining new worlds, how people would travel, the things that would be different and the things that wouldn't change at all.
While it's not up there as a top read fic, I remain so proud of Sound Tracking my main bandom Space AU.
And okay, I keep talking about the Musketeer Space AU and I just looked at the file and it's at 13k and why can't I just finish the thing? Apparently, last time I looked at it I left off halfway through a conversation about tentacle sex which is rather unfortunate.
So yes, in conclusions. I love AUs. I especially love Space AUs, simply because the only limit to what you can write is your own imagination.
Which is true for all AU/fic/fusions really, and while I've had a dry spell for a long time, I really hope one day I'll be sitting here again and that, what if? results in some actual words.
