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

Re: [FILL]: one breath away
The forbidden yet irresistible attraction between them sprinkled throughout is *_____* delicious. Like. Mingyu's realisation in, He was spared. hit him as hard as it hit me. “Mingyu,” he whispers, and it feels like a confession, a prohibited word. Despite that and the constant warning from his buzzing medallion, my boy just went ahead and let himself be led to a secluded place...please. He's down bad.
The way you used red here: Mingyu himself is on the brink of death, red oozing out of his chest as he lies motionless on the snow, eyes on the dark and tall branches over his head. & the apple of his cheeks rosy, his eyes alight with hope, his hair a mess from where Mingyu’s fingers tugged at it. & For now, he lets Soonyoung curl around him and falls into dreams where red isn’t a colour. makes the piece so vivid, sets the world against a crimson backdrop which is a perfect setting ;____;
He was spared. and "I was curious," he says, his face swimming in Mingyu's vision, "to see if you would come back." juxtaposed with Once again, he was spared. and “Can you stay?” Soonyoung asks, voice soft, a murmur against Mingyu’s neck. ...they are everything to me.
Thank you for filling this!! You're brilliant and bruxa Soonyoung only makes the story more compelling (and darker and sexier...I want more of where that blood-drinking came from). It's always a pleasure to read your writing. <3
