2022 Round 2: AUs

Status: Closed
This round has closed. It remains open for fills, comments and remixes, but prompts are no longer accepted.
✧ Seventeen Holidays
Round 2: Alternate Universes

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).

Rules
  • Sign up is not required.
  • Fills have a minimum of 400 words for prose, haiku-length for poetry (3 lines), and 400px by 400px for art (memes are also art). Other mediums are fine too!
  • There is no maximum cap.
  • Tag and provide content warnings at your discretion, but a good guide are the Ao3 four (Graphic Depictions of Violence, Major Character Death, Rape/Non-Con, Underage) and this list of common CWs (cr: SportsFest).
  • NSFW/Explicit content should be tagged
  • NSFW art should not be visible, please provide a link and a warning. You may crop the artwork and embed a SFW preview.

How it works


Prompting
  1. Click on [Post a New Comment] at the bottom of this post;
  2. Change the subject to something interesting;
  3. Copy+Paste the following HTML into your comment and edit the sections. Feel free to add as much detail as you want!

Filling
  1. Reply to the original prompt;
  2. Change the subject to [FILL], you may add a title or stay chaotic;
  3. Copy+Paste the following HTML into your comment, edit the sections, and add your text.

    You may also upload your fill to the AO3 Collection.

Remixing
  1. Post as a reply to the fill you are remixing, using the same HTML as above;
  2. Change the subject to [REMIX].
Art/media
  1. Upload your work to any platform (twitter, imgur, youtube, soundcloud, google maps, etc.)
  2. Using the same HTML code as above, copy the link into your fill or remix. That's it!
  3. Optionally, you can embed a picture into your comment. Please use the following code instead.

    (To explain, the HTML resizes your picture to 400x400px so that it fits on most screens. Users can view the full size if they click on it. You can also add a link to your work on twitter so that others can share it, or to any other website 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.)

YEEEEEEEEEES OH MY GOODNESS OP I can't express how excited I am that you filled this prompt AND WITH 97Z?! I am on the floor. This is so good. This is. DELICIOUS UGGHMF. Writing the prompt, I really struggled with leaving it open to both angsty/heavy and funny/light fills, because I think this type of AU lends itself to both really well. And I feel like you touched on both tones so exquisitely! This is more than I could've ever hoped for!!

if he were to guess what the editors would write in little subtitles under their names, it would be something flowery and vague like “Life Partners.” - seokhao through the eternal heart-eyes of Kim Mingyu and his background knowledge of the crew and producers... THIS IS JUST SO PERFECT. + feeling camaraderie with Seokmin because he passed the bungee jump Detour oh my GOD when I tell you I literally almost asked for that SPECIFICALLY in the prompt I'm not even kidding I feel like you read my mind op this is crazy. It's so clear how Mingyu Cares, how he struggles to watch them struggle,, I love the way you captured his big bleeding heart here. Especially, Mingyu was not sure he would be able to stomach the sight before they could intervene. Even when he's exhausted himself, he's thinking of them, of how difficult the race is for them. Are you kidding [yelling forever]!

I love your descriptions of the airport, the never-ending sunrise (!!!), the melancholic atmosphere that is still somehow full of love because that's just how 97z roll... I can't get over how tender it is, their reaction to the flight being delayed yet again, how they're still just supportive and soft with each other. My heart is EXPLODING at Mingyu imagining filming seokhao clapping for the winning team, the whole last lines, Minghao just laughs, warm, clinging on to him. He’s draped across him, hand finding Seokmin’s. He raises his head to kiss him, and rests there. / Mingyu subtly, sheepishly, slips the lens cover onto his camera. Please excuse my language but fuuuuuuuuuck. YOU GET IT! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS I FEEL LIKE I WILL NEVER RECOVER!!

AAAAAAHHHHHHHH OKAY I. I have been looking at and thinking about this reply for a solid day now..... FIRST OF ALL so glad i managed to hit a good tone-- after i posted it i was afraid i had written something cringe and grimdark for a prompt that was meant to be silly HAHA but i agree there were a lot of possibilities and i'm glad i hit the the nice medium i wanted...!!!
i did actually blow through a season while writing this on and off and once they showed a bungee jump i knew i had to go there somehow... too perfect..... And I'm glad the Mingyuisms came through!!! This poor man. Someone get him on the food network or something.
Airports are some of my favorite places IRL which was another aspect of the way this prompt baited me LOL. you get it... i get it... WE BOTH GET IT...🤝🤝🤝 Once more, most of the last day has been me trying to come up with a way to thank u for each and every way in which your response has made my week but it's immensely difficult without babbling too much!!! this is but a fraction of what i have to thank you for!!! I'VE ALREADY GONE ON TOO LONG!!!!! Thank you <3 <3 <3
