Comments

Claire Bennet ∞ Heroes ∞ OTA

[infinite1ups]

( special love for fantasy/game of thrones, arranged marriages, crime/mafia, fake dating, roommates/neighbors, and sex work AUs. also up for mixing things together. superhero AU is more or less her natural setting but i'm happy to lean into the proper superhero aspects of it, with costumes and such. )

Jessica Jones | Jessica Jones/The Defenders

[assholic]

[Things I love: Monstermash (werewolf/vampire/etc). Daemon AU. Magical AU would work too. Fake dating/engaged/married. Sex work, potentially from either side (ngl, would like to see her as the purchaser/client). Also wouldn't say no to a Supernatural AU. Some of the things in the linked lists are interesting for soulmate or bff aus. Even, yes, the wild wild west/bounty hunter Jess. I'm pretty open to stuff that I have a familiarity with. PM or hit me up if you're interested. OTA for anything gen, M/F for shippy/smut. 21+]

Chrissy Cunningham + Stranger Things + OTA

[cheerybomb]

[She's already an AU, but it's fun to do things like adapt her to Hunger Games or whatever. Vampires is also another fun one, especially if she's the one who comes back to Hawkins as Kas. Various alive!AUs are good too!
Can even go even more AU with the Rule 63 version at ccunningham, just let me know which you'd prefer]

Steve Rogers (AU) - MCU - OTA

[doesntrunaway]

[He's already an AU, but it's fun to mess around with the why of it. But also absolutely down for full-canon-change AU things like Hunger Games or Star Wars or whatever flavor of post-apocalypse, even just 'okay regular universe, except now there's vampires'. Throw me an idea!]

Arthur | Inception | OTA

[domsconsigliere]

[I'm good with all kinds of stuff because it could just be practice for a job no matter what it is. Alternately: let's figure out how to adapt your character into the Inception universe.]

Armitage Jade-Hux | Star Wars (AU) | OTA

[empires_heir]

[Another 'already an AU', but open to all kinds of variations and even full canon-replacement (urban fantasy is a favorite, but cyberpunk and etc. are always good)]

Charles - Dead Boy Detectives - OTA

[just_aces]

[Lots of ideas for this boy, so many alive/alive-and-modern settings to throw him into, so many other things to throw him into, including just making him a Hellhound in more canonical threads, it's fun for the whole family!]

Mal + Descendants a la Star Wars + OTA

[maladjusting]

[She's already an AU, I'd love to bounce her off other Star Wars folks, and can try further AUing her into other Situations™ as well.]

esther moreau / original / ota

[57times]

[ Victorian, and vampire/werewolf AU's are always adored, but the classics like highschool and reincarnation are both favourites as well. ]

Gabreel King + OC + OTA

[malecompanion]

[Any universe with courtesans in it, he'll fit in fine. He was originally a Firefly OC, but like, I've done high fantasy through cyberpunk with him, whatever works.]

Henry Stillman | X-Verse OC | OTA

[malesiren]

[He can fit into a lot of universes! Bard in a D&D 'verse, musician and smuggler in Star Wars or Cyberpunk type universes, definitely a vampire in urban fantasy/supernatural type things. Basically if you've got an idea, I'll probably roll with it.]

Eames + Inception + OTA

[neededforger]

[I'm good with all sorts of things because regardless of what it is: it could just be practice for a job. Alternately: let's figure out how to pop your character into the Inception universe.]

Patrick | Companion (post-canon AU) | OTA

[piecedit_together]

[Most things are good, I'm still voicetesting, sometimes the best way to do that is with a wild AU]

Rogue + Doctor Who + OTA

[roll_for]

[He's probably always going to be a bounty hunter, but those exist in a LOT of places...
I'm working my way through his novel right now, but I don't know if I'm adopting any of it yet.]

Edwin Payne - Dead Boy Detectives - OTA (M/M for romantic/smut but anything goes for platonic)

[technicallyhellbound]

[So many different types of AU to be had with this boy, just starting with all the variations on 'alive' and/or 'alive and modern', but even more-or-less in-canon there's alterations to be made, Edwin as an incubus is a favorite, but I do love a full world-build a la Star Wars or Hunger Games or more generic like Cyberpunk.]

Matsuno Chifuyu ( Tokyo Revengers )

[thousandwinter]

perpetua | ghost

[skeleta]

[ He has a (wip) bg3 AU (half-drow death cleric/glamour bard), I've been mulling over fitting him into Fallout, and I also just love figuring out how to mash him into whatever universe or alternate situation I can!! ]

Kyoutani Kentarou | Haikyuu!!

[disobliges]

Gojo Satoru | Jujutsu Kaisen

[mrblueeyes]

[ Give me sci fi AUs ... fantasy AUs ... Heian era AUs ...
The big jujutsu families as nobility or kings ... prince Gojo and/or sorcerer Gojo. Gothic romance, sword & sorcery settings, science fiction, historical fiction (any era, if I don't know it I will learn it). ]
