Didn't someone once say Thursdays are just an Alternate Universe version of Fridays?

Hello, everyone. I’m squidgiepdx and today's theme is a clear favorite of mine - Alternate Universes. Oh yeah, this is where canon and fanon diverge, because with Alternate Universes, you can diverge a little - like making Danny Williams the Hawaiian and Steve McGarrett from New Jersey - or a lot, like making Sherlock and John ad executives. As long as it's canon divergent, it's an AU, so let's get to work!

Just a few rules:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
Use the character's full names and fandom's full name for ease adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the spoiler cut.
If there are possible triggers in your story, please warn for them in the subject line!

Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt

Some examples to get the ball rolling...
+ Stargate Atlantis, John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, AU where Rodney is a scientist but John is the doctor at work's health clinic. Rodney keeps making excuses to go see him.
+ Travelers, Philip/Trevor, AU where they knew each other and were married before coming back to the 21st.
+ due South, Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski, Handyman AU

We use AO3 to bookmark filled prompts. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2019 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Check out Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 1 (not very current), Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 2, or the Calendar Archives, or for more recent prompts, you can use LJ's advanced search options to find prompts to request and/or fill.

While the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheets and LJ's advanced search options are available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching for in the future.
