Re: What popular tropes do you hate?

Yeah, definitely! If a character is non-conflictedly dark and violent in canon then it makes sense to put them in a dark and violent role in AUs. But if they're not that kind of character in canon then I am super not interested in seeing them characterized that way in fic.

Royalty AUs only work for me in situations where the character's royal status is analogous with their canon situation. A character who is extremely societally powerful in canon can potentially translate to a powerful royal in an AU. Or a character who is seen to have a high social standing but actually lacks any real power of their own can potentially translate into a prince under the thumb of a regent or something. It's a bit finnicky at the best of times, though, to keep the essence of the characters intact in a Royalty AU.
