About
When you put the characters you love in a new world, you end up loving them even more. Sometimes it's about the aesthetic (dark academia). Sometimes it's about straining those ship dynamics to the extreme (Pacific Rim). Maybe life is hard and you need to exorcise something (unemployment/coporate slave AU). Or perhaps you are so in love with the world you want to see Seventeen in it. Shakespeare, My Hero Academia, RuPaul's Drag Race. No problem - just give some context so anyone can fill it. Examples
MinWon - Bittersweet
Ah yes, the ambiguous Bittersweet MV. I'm curious to see anyone's interpretation of those MinWon scenes.
Any / NCT AU
Remember how Seventeen was supposed to be subgroups divided across Korea, China and Japan? What if that happened and the members were split up, only to reunite once a year. Or if they promoted like NCT - thinking about the graduation angst of NCT Dream, the ridiculous schedules of SuperM. Who is Mark and over-employed. Who is Shotaro and stuck in the basement?
Wonhui X Link Click (Donghua)
Link Click is a show about two guys who run a photography studio and time travels to help their customers. Wonwoo knows every event within 12 hours of a photograph being taken and Junhui can time travel and possess the photographer for 12 hours to complete a mission. Wonwoo speaks in Junhui's mind and tells him what he needs to do - where to go, what to say, what will happen. There's a rule that Junhui can't change the past because it will change the future :') but Junhui wants to :'). Would love to see WonHui investigating another sebong's story, or an exploration of their contrasting attitudes to fate (resigned vs headstrong - roles can be reversed if you want).

Note!
Have you considered trying for the 17hols hall of fame? The categories are: Exactly 400 Words, Year of the Tiger, Five of a Kind and the Rarest Pair. ▽ Click for More Info ▽Exactly 400 words: your fill is the absolute minimum word count. Well done you cold curt succinct savage. Year of the Tiger: in celebration of 2022, we will also celebrate anyone who supports this agenda (context: burn your ears). You must seamlessly incorporate a horanghae or wooahae or hahahahanihae (etc) in your fill. You can not regret it. Five of a Kind: You win this if you fill 5 prompts, and each fill is different in the same way. E.g. 5 different ships, 5 different AUs, 5 different mediums. You also win this by doing 5 remixes! The rarest pair: the fill with the rarest pairing at the end of the fest wins. This is based off the number of works in the ao3 tag. For simplicity, this will be the / tag and not &. (e.g. a “Wonwoo & Minghao” platonic fill will be counted by the “Wonwoo/Minghao” tag). The ship must only have Seventeen members and be the main pairing in your fill. We will update the category with the current titleholder during the fest so you know who to challenge~ I anticipate polyamory. (To help us out, please mention that you’re going for one of these categories at the beginning of your fill.) Navigation

Jeonghan is on the floor when he finds him, fletching an arrow with unwarranted viciousness. The feathers are uneven. His hands keep slipping on the wood, blood still in his hands, the sleeves of his jacket soaked. Seungcheol is worried he’s gonna get himself splinters but if he says anything about it Jeonghan will just blow up.
“Are you gonna say sorry.”
Seungcheol takes that as permission to approach. “No,” he says. “His name is Chan by the way.”
Jeonghan whacks him with an arrow, then throws it and punches him on the shoulder. All these scavenger hunts are building his strength. Seungcheol feels a little proud.
“I don’t care what his name is,” Jeonghan says darkly. “You don’t have to save everyone!”
That’s their problem, Seungcheol thinks. Jeonghan cares about everyone so much it hurts him the most when something unfortunate happens. When they lost Jihoon, Jeonghan was inconsolable. Seungcheol didn't leave their camp for weeks to take care of him.
It's not that Seungcheol grieves less. He just prefers caring about what's in front of him, and what they can look forward to. He kinda has to.
He clears the arrows in Jeonghan's lap and puts his arm around his shoulders. Jeonghan leans on him automatically and it makes Seungcheol smile despite everything.
"What's the point of surviving all this, if not to have more people around?"
If they ignore the undead just outside their fences, it's almost nice. Seokmin is trying to start a vegetable garden and he's close to brainwashing Seungkwan to help him. Mingyu got it into his head to start decorating their "houses" and no one has the heart to remind him they need to be ready to leave whenever. They think he's trying to impress Sooyoung but she's already busy running their watchtower schedule with Minghao even though she just arrived a week ago.
He wipes Jeonghan's hands with a clean-ish shirt from his backpack. He had trembled so bad earlier trying to staunch the blood from Seungcheol's shoulder, muttering "You're okay," over and over. He's not sure if Jeonghan was saying it to him or to himself, but what's important is they got back home in one piece, and they got Chan out of his overrun apartment complex. Chan looks like a good kid.
"There's no point surviving this without you," Jeonghan says, voice small. He grips Seungcheol's wrist.
Seungcheol gets it.
