can i just say that i still remember the day i first saw your omega andrew au, over a year ago, and i still think about it every single day?? truly a blessing when ao3 only has 36 omega andrew fics and at least 10 are in russian
we seriously need to step up our game as a fandom when it comes to omega andrew fics 😭 you're telling me this series has been around for a decade and we still don't have more than a few dozen fics??
On the one hand I do get it - writing Andrew specifically as an omega is undeniably a challenge (assuming you care about staying at least somewhat true to his canon characterization). Particularly his boundaries around touch, intimacy and sex are things that I think could be a little trickier to navigate in an omegaverse setting.
But on the other hand, I think we're also missing sooooo many opportunities for character exploration.
My mind goes back to bottom!Andrew and sub!Andrew fics I've written and how writing Andrew in those scenarios also required a little extra thought and care. Going into those fics, I had to ensure that the narrative actively reinforced how this was Andrew's choice, that it was something he desired and that the desire itself was something he had to grapple with before he could then acknowledge and act on it.
ANDREIL OMEGAVERSE WOOOOOOOOOO OMEGA ANDREW YEAHHHHHHHHHHH
And not just any omegaverse! This one has childhood friends to separated for years to reunited at last to lovers <3 plus mutual pining, slow burn, and pack dynamics.
With this WIP, I want to deconstruct some of the most common omegaverse tropes (namely: omegas being inherently submissive and how heat/rut cycles work).
A brief summary below:
Ever since he was a child, Andrew has hated alphas. Not because they were possessive or controlling, or because they were, at times, aggressive and violent. Andrew himself is all of those things, despite his status as an omega. No, Andrew hates alphas for an entirely different reason. He hates them because alphas don't ask. They take, no matter how much you cry or plead or beg for mercy. Andrew learned to stop begging. To never cry. To never say the word "please" again. He learned he never wanted to be like them, these cruel, sadistic alphas. Even if he presented as an omega, he would make himself stronger and scarier than any alpha could ever hope to be. His only friend, Abram, hated alphas too. He said his father was an alpha, and that he always hurt Abram and his mother, that he was the reason they had run away. Abram was terrified of turning into him, claiming that they looked the same. Then, on Andrew's eleventh birthday, Abram and his mother vanished, nobody that Andrew told seemed to know who he was or why he had left. Some even accused him of making Abram up. For a long time, Andrew was adamant that Abram had been real, but after years passed with no word from Abram, even he started to believe it. Maybe his loneliness as a foster child had led him to invent Abram, or maybe Abram had been real and was now dead. It's not until years later, when Andrew had long since discovered his twin brother and left California behind, that Abram finds him again.
