Once Upon an Avalon
Lil' castle

ALARA'S CHALLENGE:
I've been searching assorted sites in order to update my sites, and it looks as if the genre of Elseworlds-- that is, not a What If (which is an alternate universe that takes some breakpoint of Marvel continuity and spins off from it) but a universe where the characters have been transplanted to an entirely new milieu-- is incredibly popular in the Rogue/Remy genre. But it's almost nonexistent outside Rogue/Remy stories (or, at least, Rogue stories.)

There's nothing wrong with Rogue stories. But I'd like to see more diversity. My challenge is: write an Elseworlds where neither Rogue nor Remy is the main character. (They can *appear* in it, but not be main characters.) One example of this would be Lady Seraph's "Strange Attraction", where Jubilee is an adult thief and Victor Creed is the bounty hunter that's captured her. Another example would be Abyss's "Skulls and Crossbones", where Logan is a pirate captain.
