Yes. I'm posting this insanely early. Shut up.

On January 20th-21st, Jamie is going to get a hold of a shard from the M'Kraan crystal. Bumbling with said crystal shard occurs.

The result?

Wacky Hijinks baby.

IT'S ALTERNATE UNIVERSE WEEKEND AT FANDOMHIGH!

For one weekend only (January 20th-21st), your character will be transformed into a different version of him or herself as a result of Jamie's bumbling.

Alt-U characters can be any of the following:
An alternate universe version of your own character that occured in the character's fandom
(Ex. Buffy-> Wishverse!Buffy)
A different role that the actor who portrays your character has taken
(Ex. Marty Blank -> Lloyd Dobler
Pippi Longstocking -> Fashion Model)
An alternate character that is based on your character or your character is based on.
(Ex. Hamlet -> Simba from the lion king)
An actor who has portrayed the character before or after your current actor
(Ex. Hamlet -> Mel Gibson!Hamlet)

The other suggestion I have for those characters who do not have an alternate universe to draw from is to do a play on their names.

Examples:
Walter Dornez -> Walter Mitty
Thursday Next -> Wednesday Addams
Zero Hopeless-Savage -> "My Hero Zero" from School House Rock. (Until he came along we counted on our fingers and toes)

If none of the above does not work for you, you also have the option to think your characters are either from the wrong universe or the godawful Mary Sue steroptypes of themselves that show up in fanfic.

If you are really struggling to find a character to turn into? Ping me and I'll try to help you out.

If you don't want to change your character? That's fine too. You might have more fun going "WTF?" over the changes in everyone.

When Jamie's bumbling has been corrected and FH returns to "Normal", your character will remember everything that your alternate self has done. If you choose to play an evil version of yourself for this weekend it will require admin approval.

I'll put up a sign-up post in the next week or so. Feel free to ping me here for any questions, comments or concerns.

*cackles at who Parker's going to be*

Also, are they going to think they belong on the Island, or will they be going "wtf?" and trying to figure out how they got to Virginia? I'm kind of hoping for the latter....

*tries to think of who Evie can be that doesn't die tragically*

[janet_fraiser]

*points to icon of who she's going to try to get approval for*

...would transforming into another Doctor who happens to be grumpy, unpleasant, and have a drug addiction be too much of a stretch?

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Based on what I outlined above, I'd have to say it's too much of a stretch.

Question: Why is there air?

Serious question: Do I need an Evil approval to turn Tyler into Aaron Stampler from Primal Fear? He seems so innocent most of the time ...

Question: Why is there air?

To fill our tires so we can drive.

Serious question: Do I need an Evil approval to turn Tyler into Aaron Stampler from Primal Fear?

*snerk* That depends if Roy is going to come out and play.

I can tell you right now that "Smoochy" is going to be outright denied. Anything remotely coming close to that purple dinosaur is banned! BANNED I SAY! Well not really but we do have standards

[ktarian-wildman.livejournal.com]

Oh this is going to be so much fun *bounce*

[untouchableskin.livejournal.com]

IT'S ALL HAPPENING!


[hopes that at least someone out there gets my reference]

And dude, I *SO* need to find a reason for Veronica to be in town that weekend. Because she would *totally* turn in to Mary Lane from Reefer Madness and it would be FUNNY.

Maureen could become Elphaba from Wicked.

And my new student app, if accepted, would become a canon AU version of himself.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

*cackles at ideas for Sam and Jarod*

I can't decide on Dawn, though. Maybe the girl from House...

[chasingangela]

I'd love to see Celeste from Six Feet Under. Just because a pop diva in Fandom would be hysterical.

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Adventures of Pete and Pete!~!!!!

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

Harriet the Spy.

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

I think Kaylee is gonna become a goth!chick. *nods*

And I would love to find a reason for Piper to be in Fandom that weekend. There are so many AU versions of her I could use, specifically dominatrix!Piper. ;)

[mr-hippie.livejournal.com]

"JOSH!!!"

If we get the Baroness Billy's totally staying Billy. Otherwise I gotta choose between Will Scarlett, Heathers, or Young Guns 2.

Clark Kent: Oh my dear God! Too many alternate versions of Clark Kent! Aaaaaaagh! :)

[mr-hippie.livejournal.com]

*GASP* Can Saigo be Plucky? Or even Don Quixote since he's got De La mancha in his name?

[can_be_more]

The beautiful thing about Farscape canon? There's just so much to choose from, and I don't even need to go into Claudia Black's other roles. *g*

*stays mum on the others*

[swerval_zero]

No Shazza? *pouts* *but not really, because eeeee*

[ihatedenmark.livejournal.com]

Gibson!Hamlet? Bah, you infidel. Branagh!Hamlet 4 EVA, yo! :p


(How would you play a furry at FH anyway? Hmmm...)

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

( play like Schrodinger but with more yffing? XD )

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Oh, dear.

Becky will be Winnie Foster.

From Tuck Everlasting.

Yes.

Rory I am still deciding upon, but yes. And Greg...may possibly be a bunny. I'm not sure.

[likethegun]

...it's possible that I'm a little too excited about this. Heeeeee!

1) Weiss can hear your thoughts
2) Weiss looks like Tony Curtis and does amazing escape tricks all day long.
3) *wishes he'd seen Felicity ever for the first time in his life*

[untouchableskin.livejournal.com]

1) Weiss can hear your thoughts

OMG YES!

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

*looks cute and cuddly*

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

*still calls you skipper*

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking Walter "Radar" O'Reilly.

I don't know Walter Mitty well enough to want to try it. :D

[nadiathesaint]

Options, options, options. . . .

1. AU that occurred in the fandom: er. Does Ghost!Nadia count? I don't think I have one of those.

2. A different role the actor plays: drowned cruise stow-away, Argentine mob moll tangoist, Che Guavera's girlfriend, Frida's sister, kidnapping victim . . . not much different than Nadia IG already.

3. An alternate character that your character is based on or is based on your character: None that I can think of.

4. An actor who has played your character before or after your actor: Amy Acker originally auditioned to play Nadia. Would that count?

5. A play on names: power ranger, Mexican wrestler, candidate for presidency, or barely mentioned girlfriend of a castaway.

. . .

Nadia might just have to stay normal that weekend.

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

So, wait, for clark I could play nother charector that Tom Welling has played? for example?

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

OHH! I want to have all this fun too! But... uh...

Who? omg I have to think!

Help?

[water-wonder.livejournal.com]

Oh, I cannot wait for this!!!! *squees!*

I still need to think of something for Tori though... hrm.
