High school AUs. (I get that many people in fandom are in high school or have left it a short time ago but I, er, shall we say have not so these hold no interest for me. That said I am capable of using the scroll but so it's not like I'm going to whinge about them to their writers.)

Female OC paired up with hottest male canon character. I bet you you could find this fic in every singe series with more than a handful of fics to its name. (I get that this is just escapism and there's nothing wrong with it, but I never did this even as a kid so it kind of wigs me out.)

I feel the exact same way about... both, really. But for high school AUs, whenever I voice this opinion people shoot me down, saying, 'but it works so well because of the pressure cooker environment where everybody sees each other all the time!! College AUs don't work so well for that reason because you don't see the same people so often!1' Call me crazy, or maybe it's the fact that I went to a community college and then a relatively small university (coughUViccough), but I saw many of the people who were pursuing the same degrees as me quite often. (I also chose to hang around my department a lot otherwise because it was nerdy and awesome.)

Well that and, like you I'm long past my high school days.

Fellow UVic alumni fistbump!

I don't know how much I'd enjoy a college AU either, but at least it would be something remotely original and probably a fair bit more engaging. What I'd give for the next Persona game to be set in a college or -gasp- an office instead of a high school, I can't even describe. I am so, so sick of high school shit. Doesn't help that it seems like that was the "best time of your life!!!111" only for the very worst sort of person. Even the jocks/popular kids weren't also colossal dickbags enjoyed college or early adulthood (travelling! money! independence!) more.

/fistbump I'm actually kyuusei, just can't log in atm. ;)

While I talk about a hypothetical college AU, I'm not sure I've ever actually... read one yet. (Are they out there?) It would be something new at least and I agree, I'd looove one for Persona 5 - there's even more possibilities than the previous games' HS setting imo, and again, it's more relatable for me! 'best time of your life' has always sounded like bullshit. HS has a few good moments in an otherwise meh existence, but I loved both my post-secondary schools way more.
