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.)

you said Anticipate but you didn't say Prepare to Get Destroyed, which I have been. once again super amazed that you've tackled only mildly familiar subject matter with such expertise!! you did so well, so let's just get that straight right from the beginning.

love the choice of providing an alternate point of view, so now the two pieces can complete each other! yeay for a collaborative effort.

Seungcheol...putting on armour only to have them shed off his body with a single look from Mingyu...the kang yohanisms is strong in this one...how do you even know he's hovering outside the door!! Must be love if you tuned in your senses to note how the air tastes when he's around. Rolls my eyes affectionately at these gays.

“A well-earned seat. You have -- it is quite a pleasant face” and Mingyu’s breath trembles on its next exit. oh what you did here was so good! the implication that from Mingyu's POV he missed out on a couple of words because Seungcheol's proximity distracted him so ;_____;

ON GOD. He traces a finger over where he remembers to be the wings idly, wonders if Mingyu dreams of mended wings and breaking chains, of greeting the sun and feeling the wind sprint through his lungs. He wonders if Mingyu dreams of being free of him. how dare you do this. how dare you make Seungcheol think this way with the predisposed knowledge that Mingyu is thinking the opposite. that Mingyu decidedly does NOT want to be free of him. I am coming for you.

Mingyu looks up at him like a man spellbound by the sick beauty of death. the sick beauty of you!!!! in darkness some men find a home and you have one worthy of building castles in!!!!

I love this, you have a way with words that's just *______* very pleasant to enjoy. I don't know what you have in store next but I know what to get ready for now. Thank you!!! <3

thank you!! this wouldn't be here without your fill, so thank you for writing that first! but um, i wasn't trying to "destroy" you? i'm sorry lmao

He traces a finger over where he remembers to be the wings idly, wonders if Mingyu dreams of mended wings and breaking chains, of greeting the sun and feeling the wind sprint through his lungs. He wonders if Mingyu dreams of being free of him. and YES this section i did it with the full knowledge of the impact it holds. sorry not sorry ;D and also my major tactic in this was to take everything you offered from mingyu's pov and invert it into seungcheol's. so yea, may i say it was inevitable..?

anyway, thank you for the fill and the comment! glad you liked it! and yes i have many things planned for the future...<3
