I'm the only the top part with this even when I'm in super-OTP mode. Canon divergence AU's or AU's that keep the relationship the same as it is in canon I'm good with, but if it's an AU that changes/removes that relationship then it wont hold my interest, I ship a pair because of the dynamic and changing that just makes them OC's who happen to share the names of canon characters to me.

[ketita]

Same for me. I've never managed to reach the stage where my brain turns off and I can read absolutely anything as long as there are characters with the OTP name hooking up.
If I want to read original fiction I'll go read original fiction... and I'm not lacking books which are better quality than the meet-cute AU melodramas with little plot that goes nowhere.
Maybe that's another reason I prefer canon-connected stories. Because canon has a plot, if the fanfic is linked to it it's guaranteed to have at least *some* by osmosis XD

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, there's tons and tons of books that are better, but most of them aren't nearly as good at being meet-cute AU melodramas. Which is sometimes just what I want. Sometimes I just like reading about characters I like being cute together. At great length, and in excruciating detail.

[ketita]

Yes, and that's why I left this comment on a thread with somebody who prefers the canon stuff.
I mean obviously there are tons of people who want meet-cute AUs. That's probably why there are TONS AND TONS of them. You're hardly lacking in reading material, you lucky duck.
I'm just one of those people who likes a lot of canon in my fanfic, because if I want to read about specific characters then I want to read about those specific characters. Not some other people with the same name who bear little resemblance.
This is regrettably kind of rare in my current fandoms, so I am frustrated.

Enjoy your mountains of meet-cute AUs.

Likewise.

Oh, sometimes there are exceptions that get past, like Modern reinterpretations of the canon plot, or a plot that isn't one of the usual transplant settings and has some plot quirk that draws the eye.

But I can't even look at most transplant-AUs, they usually remove all connection and relevance to the original material (especially in fantasy canons).
