AU Weekend October 2&3!

[heroic_jawline]

Are you already done figuring out your Parents Weekend visitors and very sad not to have a sign-up to fill out? Boy am I going to make your day because next weekend, October 2nd and 3rd, will be the return of AU Weekend when your character may be transformed into a different version of themselves as a result of Fandom weirdness!

YAY.

To borrow lovingly from badassprodigy, your choices for AU characters are:

• An alternate universe version of your character that occurred within the character's own canon: Xander -> Evil Vampire Xander


• A version of your character that was played by a different actor: Daniel Craig Bond -> Sean Connery Bond


• The counterpart of your character from a re-imagined version of the canon: Momoko (a Japanese teenager whose codename is Blossom) from Powerpuff Girls Z -> Blossom (an American kindergartener whose real name is Blossom) from the original Powerpuff Girls


• The counterpart of your character from a canon that's loosely based on yours, or vice versa: Romeo -> Tony from West Side Story


• A different role that the actor (including voice actors for animated characters) who portrays your character/PB has taken: Steve Rogers -> Ransom Drysdale


• A character (or inanimate object if you'd like a way to sideline your kid for the weekend) who shares part or all of your character's name:
  Steve Rogers -> Steve McGarrett
  Annie Edison -> Edison Carter
  Beaker -> an actual beaker


• A ridiculous stereotype of your character frequently found in fanfic: Hermione -> Hermione Sue

If you're struggling to find a character to turn into, ping us and we'll try to help you out! You also always have the option of keeping your character normal so they can WTF at all of the crazy people.

Answers to previous FAQ:

• Yes! Your character will physically transform into the Alternate Universe Persona that you choose.


• Yes! Your character will remember what happened afterward. (Though you're welcome to make those memories as clear or fuzzy as you'd like.)


• Yes! This is open to alumni and expatriates!


• No! They don't have to come back to the island to be affected; through Fandom's clingy, clingy love, they can go AU no matter where they're physically located.

Sign-ups will be going in another post and will be due by 11:59 PM Pacific on Thursday, September 30th!
