Title: Alternate Universe (03)
Post by: FelixAwards on December 23, 2010, 07:04:37 PM
Alternate Universe, or AU. Stories of this type are usually what-ifs, where possibilities arising from different circumstances or character decisions are explored. Unlike regular fan fiction, which generally remains within the boundaries of the canon, alternative universe fiction writers like to explore the possibilities of pivotal changes made to characters' history, motivations or environment.

This is true for all of the nominees, giving their takes on BSB canon in alternate worlds where people fight for freedom from torture chambers and child abuse, men can give birth, get behind the wheel of a race car, wield a police issue weapon, or travel through time, and the zombie apocalypse becomes reality.

The nominees for Best Alternate Universe are:

The Disease (Darla) by Mersey
 Far From Normal by yorkielover88
 A Way Out by yorkielover88
 Life in the Fast Lane by evergreenwrite r83
 Time Watcher by Pengi
 Song for the Undead by Julie & Rose
 To Protect and Serve by Mare
 Paying the Price by alota_cookin
 Sinister Devotion by kevmylove

And the winner is...


Winner: Song for the Undead by RokofAges75 & Rose

Well done Julie and Rose, I'm so glad you won as this story is fab!  Great picture Julie :)

Well done to Erika too, I loved Sinister Devotion.  Did see Erika on Twitter a few days ago but don't think she has internet at home at the moment.

Hehe, thanks!

I dismembered Zombie Broken Nick yesterday before I left for Christmas Eve with my family.  It was snowing pretty bad, and I just had this fear of, "What if I wreck my car in the snow, and someone in my family has to come to my apartment and finds a one-legged zombie Nick Carter dummy sitting on my couch?  What will they think?!"  LMFAO
