Same. Well, that and I have no interest in taking adult characters from an interesting setting and turning them into teenagers doing mundane teenager things in a really boring setting.

Tangential: Aren't most authors of high school AUs in high school, themselves? I've always figured those fics were borne of a student's daydreams about their favorite characters being with them as they went about their day at school.

I have no interest in taking adult characters from an interesting setting and turning them into teenagers doing mundane teenager things in a really boring setting.

Exactly! This is the primary reason I have zero interest in high school AUs. I had a pretty decent time in high school (although it's not something I'd want to do over - I was nowhere near my peak in life, not sure I'm there yet!) but looking back on it, it's all just boring to me. The idea of high school is boring to me. The lives of teenagers are boring to me. If you write about some high school teens solving mysteries or something, that's cool (although why not do that with characters who are already teenagers or write original fiction), but if the premise of the fic is just "they're in high school" then forget it.
