For Francis_FanFictions & Izzy_Existence (again)
It's been way too long, but I'm back. Sorry that I didn't get to every suggestion yet. There are two sections in this part: one of ideas meant to fit the picture, and another of AUs I thought of that don't fit the picture.

Proposal #3: Idol AU
This category is on the realistic side, so for both ideas here the characters would probably all be mortal and without powers/abilities.
A: Gow is a world-famous idol. She's been homeschooled for safety reasons ever since her career took off, but she wants to go to school and talk to people like normal without her status getting in the way. Savage is not a world-famous idol. He admires Gow, though, and gets to go to school and talk to people like normal.
Gow's supervisor eventually agrees to let her go to school on one condition: she has to disguise herself. So she uses colored contacts (hence the eye color in the picture) and changes her clothing style a bit (hence the outfit) so no one will recognize her. She also decides to go by a fake or– *cough* lesser-known *cough* –name. Her first friend at school is Savage, who has no idea who she really is but kind of likes her. He was the person she asked for help navigating the school, etc. Her first crush is Sonic. And that makes a love triangle, obviously ending with Gowvage.
B: Savage and Gow are two rival/competing idols. They're exchanging mildly harmful words like all rivals do when something happens that results in them being in a romantic position if taken out of context (think Miraculous). A paparazzi person takes a picture of them and runs off.
And so begins the journey to get the photographer's camera, or at least the data card inside it, and delete the picture before it can get out on the internet. Working together. A means to an end. It doesn't matter what rules they break (money can work wonders), they just have to delete that photo.
Gow and Savage might have been at some sort of getaway or training for whatever their profession is, like modeling, singing, etc., along with others. The photographer might have been just walking along the property line, waiting for something to happen, because they knew famous people were there. Maybe their home/business center, where they upload all the pictures, is a long way away, long enough for a night or two in hotels. That means Savage and Gow would have to do the same if they're following the person that closely to wait for a chance to get the camera. Mild romantic feelings would develop along the way. Maybe it could turn out to be a cool adventure.
Proposal #4: Spy AU
Age-up. Again, everyone's mortal and this is a school AU in part. Gow and Savage are roommates (casual roommates, nothing special). Gow doesn't know it yet, but Savage works for a spy agency outside of school. He's very secretive and leaves the dorms every night, always coming back at ungodly hours, which naturally makes Gow suspicious. So one night, she decides to follow him and ends up getting roped into the mission Savage has been working on with some colleagues (maybe Lavender and Jack). Savage reasons that now that Gow knows about the mission, she can't just return to the dorms like nothing happened, because the enemies the spy agency is working against will eventually find out and force her to turn traitor. If they go undercover at some point, colored contacts and outfit changes could be part of the disguise.
Proposal #5: Angels and Demons AU
This one wasn't on the list, but I wanted to add it here just for the heck of it. I have a few ideas for this type of AU.
