2021 Rec Week: What-If Wednesday!

[cap_ironman_mod]

Got tired of waiting for Marvel to just make them cats already? Canon has your back when it comes to a lot of different settings, but there are gaps, and that's where What-if Wednesday comes in!

Time to rec some Alternate Universe works! Anything goes, from canon divergence to fusions to crossovers to no powers—send them all in! We're looking for your florists, your tattoo parlors, your college friends, your space explorers, your turn lefts—anything that leaves canon by the door and goes to explore. If AUs are your jam, this is your day to share your latest faves!

We welcome recs for fics, artwork, podfics, vids, manips, edits and more!

Note: Please mark major warnings for your recs, and let us know why you’re reccing a work.
