JANUARY AU WORKSHOP

Welcome to the AU Workshop! We understand adapting a character for an AU game can be a difficult process, even if you have all the creativity in the world, so we've put this together to help! Just fill out the form and post it in a comment below, and sort of brain out which ideas stick!

Keep in mind this is not a reserve. Reserves will open on the 3rd, as always, and you don't need to use this if you're already sure of your ideas! This is just a fun creative exercise that we hope you enjoy and find helpful!

Be sure to check out our Premise, FAQ, Locations, and NPC posts for worldbuilding info to help you get started!

Here's the form!<b>PLAYER:</b> <b>CHARACTER:</b> <b>CANON:</b> <b>AU NAME:</b> if the character's name is different, you can note so here! If not, feel free to put n/a <b>AU AGE:</b> same here! <b>BLURB:</b> Write a short description of your character's AU! Are they a Meta-human? If so, what are their powers? Are they a normal human? Do they have anything else unusual about them, such as cybernetic parts or other features? What's their background? Hobbies? Anything interesting you want to say! <b>LOOKING FOR:</b> Are you looking for family members or friends or enemies for your character to be pre-planned? Or are you asking for ideas or feedback on your AU idea? Anything goes, just specify what you would like. <b>OPTIONAL ENABLE ME:</b> Are you torn between which character to app? Let us help! Post your ideas in a comment and let fellow players offer feedback and CR ideas. You can also use this section to ask for canonmates you would like to see in-game whether it be in your specific AU or for different CR.

Them having known each other for a while, some flirting, but it becoming an official thing during one of those lulls? It was a very brief relationship in the scheme of things, but very intense, so there's a lot of lingering discomfort? Fujino's the type to want to take care of her partner and be taken care of in turn, plus there's a lot of loneliness for both of them so they were probably pretty domestic, too? Sleeping together most nights, that sort of thing.

yeah! not like living together formally - Yang's space is too cramped and disorganized to have anyone around without having to move stuff around, and she's got too much literal crap around to ever move it. she needs her space. but definitely a lot of inviting her over and/or coming over herself and just staying the night. making breakfast in the morning before going off to work and so on. a comfortable routine that made it easier to put off ignoring any warning signs until it became clearer that things were not gonna work out long-term.

[fujinonymous]

Exactly! Fujino's place is also very cramped but she does a much better job cleaning up (though to be fair she lives pretty sparsely.)

She definitely cleaned up Yang's place without being asked a couple of times.

oh god no please don't (but do). I said "disorganized" but what I meant was "it looks messy, but Yang knows where everything is somehow anyway".

[fujinonymous]

Oh my god that's the most couply argument. 'You moved everything!' 'But it's organized now.' 'It was organized before!' '???'

"why would you put the clean mugs with the clean glasses they need to be near the coffee machine???"
