I like your personal rule for AUs! I think that's where my interest is, too, which is also why I never read Coffeeshop AUs because too many years in retail and it bores me.
But ohhhh, canon-divergent AUs. I have SO MANY for Hunger Games, it's ABSURD. All around Annie, because she's unexpectedly become my baby, but I want to write EVERYTHING. Ooooooops. (One reason why I have Finnick permanently injured in the 'Finnick doesn't die' AUs is...that's interesting. It's a narrative cost he's paid to be alive, yes, but dealing with the aftermath of that, even in little domestic asides, is interesting.)
At that point I might as well be writing original fiction.
I've done that myself with some concepts - which is also why I don't tend to write AUs like that. I like READING them, mind, but actually writing them, nope. Might as well just go with original.
And, reuighkljfd Roman Republic in the present YES.
