WELCOME TO TRAVERSING THE UNIVERSE! In this unofficial guide I'll be giving some basic information on the different tropes and sub-tropes out, because OV definitely isn't the only AU trope out there (or the most fun, but it does have a special place in my heart) There's no schedule on how this unofficial guide will be update and honestly I'll mostly be going over the AU tropes and subtropes that interests me/that Melia will be exploring, but if you know of any AU tropes or subtropes I don't mention please do feel free to suggest them in the comment section, I love learning and finding out more about the different tropes! Again, this is not an exhaustive list or even a final list because there are many different (or similar) kinds of AU tropes and subtropes out there! These are just the ones I've been exploring! If you have ant questions and such do feel free comment them below or contact me on any of my social medias!! Note, a lot of my information pertaining to the different AU tropes comes from the stories and comics I've read, my own understanding of them and sites like fanlore.org, reddit and AO3 Anyway, I do hope you enjoy your travels through the universe!

Collab with @LORAINEJD The authors created this story for the EC Writing Contest. Seraphina was born with a shadow that could speak to her, but no one else could hear or see it. Even at her young age (early to mid-teens), she shows strength and wisdom, as her soul is old and has lived numerous lives. This young woman was initially born into a coven, where they bound her soul with magic, making her a witch. Sadly, since her soul was so young and naive, she fell under the spell of corruption, making one bad judgment after another, hurting all in her way or those she felt had wronged her. In her present life, Seraphina has to endure the pain of discovering what she did in previous lives, the evil she had become at one time. Will she be able to correct the choices made in the past while also changing the future her previous self had set her on? A Fantasy/Teen/YA story created and written by @LORAINEJD and @AprilJester.

When you think of vampires, you probably think of Dracula or--shudder--Edward Cullens. You know what I mean: the romanticized, sexy version of a vampire. The one with sparkly skin and a charismatic compulsion. Hot. Sexy. Let's be real here, Gary Oldman really set the bar, right? But what fiction doesn't tell you is that being a vampire is messy and, quite frankly, HARD. It's ugly and lonely, and don't even get me started about tracking down blood. I'm wanted in every province (ever hear of the Bloody Killer? Yeah, that's me. Totally lame serial killer moniker, by the way, RCMP). I didn't have the choice to turn into a vampire, but, boy, did my creator pick the wrong person. Out of control, clumsy, drunk, messy, blah, blah, blah. You get the idea. I know, I should probably see a therapist, huh? Well, my trail of bloodless bodies soon catches up to me when a chance encounter with a hottie in a cafe leaves me with his phone by mistake, and I realize just how f***ed I am. And as I do my best to keep him away (while trying to survive as a vampire), I can't help but fall for the cafe hottie, putting a stake on my life. *** ONC '26 prompts: #56 and #81
