Okay confession time. I just can not get into KYAU. Not because of your writing. For 2 reasos: 1. seeing Hailee and Flo act together in the way that they did with all that chemistry and undertones, it just makes me crave a whole original show with them. The true spiritual successor to Chuck and Charah. Maybe with some Nikita and Alias mixed in. Ah what a gem what would have been! But instead it is marvel and locked contracts and waste of talent. 2. I actually can't see Hailee as Kate from the comics. Does not compute. It is A version of the character sure but it's so far away from how I see Kate. It's like seeing Poirot being played by anyone but David Suchet. Yes, all interpretations deserve a place, but not all work for everyone. So anyways, CO to my point: have you thought of giving K&Y original names? Like Wila and Parker in CFAU? That might help be compartmentalize. Cheers!
My babies! No one like them. I have a type and I don't deny it. Blonde badass spy and their useless brunette bae who they need to babysit and occasionally kick their ass? SIGN ME UPPPPPPP! Immediate OTP. Own me by the end of the first episode.
Anyway...when you say "KYAU" do you mean *SPECIFICALLY* KYAU or all the Kate/Yelena AUs I have floating around (KYAU, Period AU, FBAU, etc)? Because I'm working on adapting Period outside of this and I do have names for them but not for FB or KYAU. I won't give the names for Period cuz it's just going to get messy and confusing with that one. They already technically have individual names in each timeline lol. I had names for CFAU because that's A Book. I consider all my characters OCs but I haven't thought about standalone names for these either. I *could* but...names are such a big deal for me and I don't see the need for it right now. It takes research and that's a time commitment. I would never consider KYAU to be it's own standalone thing so I would probably never name those characters. And FB... probably down the line once I actually start *writing* the thing properly the names will come to me. But right now I don't have them.
