Canon inspired the birth of fandom, and when fangirls and fanboys were no longer satisfied with the constraints of canon/fanon, they created alternate universes to better express their love for fandom. This week at Epic Recs, we celebrate fanfiction set in alternate universes (AU) and alternate realities (AR).

Things to keep in mind:
-Recced stories can be any length, any fandom, and any pairing, as long as they fit the theme
-You don't need to write a review (unless you want to). All that you need to include are title, author, and link to the story (all parts if there are more than one).
-Stories as a single file are preferred, if available.

That said, have at it!
