WAAAIIITT!!!

Tell me everything about your tpodg aus!!!!!

I'm so glad you asked!!! I have a handful and have done a good job uniquely tagging them to make sure they're all grouped together. I'll put them in the tags.

Mindscape AU: My absolute favorite which was actually made by @klqrambles. It really took over my head when I saw their posts and I just ran with it.

Quick Summary: Dorian gets to face some consequences in the shape of Basil's ghost. Slight problem, it's not Basil it just looks like him, not that Dorian can tell the difference. Dorian does not have a good time.

Red Riding Hood AU: My most recent AU, it's mostly just for Halloween fun.

Quick Summary: Basil got turned into a werewolf trying to save Henry from being eaten by what they thought was a really big wolf. Unfortunately as a werewolf, it's hard to live in the city so we get cottage core era.

Selkie AU: The very first au I ever made. I really want to go back and make more posts cause I have a whole vision for it.

Quick Summary: Selkie Basil gets his seal skin robbed and has a meet cute with Dorian who is in his cocaine party era. Plot twist, Dorian, the really nice human who's been helping him, IS not nice and IS the guy who stole his skin.

Oxford Days AU: Technically not an AU, this is actually set before Dorian.

Quick Summary: Young Henry meets Basil for the first time as dormmates at Oxford, it's a match made in heaven. Just a bunch of shenanigans.

Love Wins AU: I really want a happy ending even if I have to delulu is the solulu my way into getting one.

Quick Summary: Everything stays the same except for the fact that Henry and Basil have a weird situationship going on that somehow saves everyone and Dorian is stuck as their third wheel.

While the AUs that are next aren't mine, I highly recommended them.

Blood Moon Painter: by @klqrambles, Basil is a serial killer and may have committed some crimes due to love.

80's Rock: by @justastrugglinghotchocolate Modern AU where Henry used to be a rock star and gets to be replaces by rising star Dorian.

Rosemary is for Remembrance: by @ibrithir-was-here, they are making it a whole comic so go visit them, Basil gets reincarnated and is now solving his own murder without even understanding what the horrible dreams he keeps having are.

The Losing Game: by @justastrugglinghotchocolate this one is an actual fanfic that they wrote. Role reversal between Basil and Dorian, there is a whole master post for anyone interested

Death Note AU: by @ai-the-broccoli, we get Kira Dorian who plans to cleanse the world with the help of his death note's Shinigami, Henry. Basil is L.

Mythology: by @justastrugglinghotchocolate Basil and Henry are Persephone and Hades with some creative liberties. All is good till Dorian fucks shit up.

Vampire Dorian: by @justastrugglinghotchocolate, was actually the very first AU I saw from this fandom, Basil stays with mysterious young man Dorian who does his best to gaslight, girlboss, gatekeep Basil into staying longer with him for some reason. They even drew some actual panels for this

Henry being closer to "committed for life" has me sobbing into my pillow.

#laughing a bit through my tears cause Henry being 100% horny is so real

Happy Halloween. Here is Red Riding Hood trying to guide The Big Bad Wolf to a safer part of the forest to avoid The Hunter.

Henry working over time to make sure Dorian doesn't kill his sexy werewolf best friend.

Y'all remember that scene from the end of "The Picture of Dorian Gray" where Henry jokes about Basil falling of a bus in Paris and dying?

That made me wonder: What did buses look like back then that would make falling so easy?

So without further ado, I present you: late 19th century steam omnibuses!

De Dion-Buton Steam omnibus (1890), source: wikipedia

This French bus from 1890 (when the book was released) is probably close to what Henry was talking about. It's relatively safe looking but I guess you could slip and fall on the stairs?

But it also turns out that Britain had the "Red Flag Act", a law from 1865 that limited max omnibus speed to 6 km/h (ca. 3.7 mph). Only France had the scary "fast" omnibuses. So maybe that plays a role here when Henry talks about Paris?

L'Obeissante (1875), max. 40km/h (24.8mph)

This one's also pretty safe looking. But here are some more interesting (and probably dangerous) ones:

I know I shouldn't laugh but it's funny imagining Basil falling off one of these. (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

#how often do people die on these if Henry makes a joke about it???

klqdraws

They definitely have some sort of situationship going on

Dorian "If they show an ounce of interest, they will fold" Gray does it again. When will his trail of broken hearts stop???

#Hyde's just gonna let it happen huh

Lord Henry "I could make him so much worse" Wotton

Lord Henry "I love ruining people's lives cause my own sucks" Wotton

Here's some more doodles for the AU.

Finally drew Dorian in this AU. He gets a huge crush on Henry and decides the best way to impress him is to kill the giant wolf living in the forest Henry likes to "hunt" in.

Dorian does not know that said wolf is Henry's best friend.
