What is Alternative Universe?
Alternative Universes, or AUs, are other universes established by the story's creator. The owner may make the setting, location, people, and culture as fantastical as he or she desires. Alternative Universes may frequently be found in literature, novels, games, and films.
The Open Verse and Close Verse categories have been established in the Alternative Universe. In contrast to an open verse, which anybody may use and sell, a close verse is one that only the owner of the poem has the right to use for commercial purposes.
Today, we bring you 7 interested verses
READY, SET and Let’s go!!
1. Eyes Colors Verse
This AU is all about eye color. If a person has fallen for anyone, their eye color will slowly change into that person's eye color. It will be difficult to see if the two of them have similar eye colors and if anyone wants to hide, they can use a contact lens as a tool to help. The interesting point in this AU is if two people share the same feeling, their eye colors will be mixed between the colors of the two of them, and the color will not be able to hide by any lens. On the other hand, if a person has a secret crush on anyone, the color that has been mixed will slowly fade over time depending on the feelings they have. If they still feel the same for that person, the color will remain no matter how long the time has passed.

Category : Open Verse
This universe is mainly focused on the element of coffee. There are three majorities of the population which are Coffee, Cup, and Decaf.
Coffee - People in this group are born with a unique scent called “Aroma”. The aroma could be in the scent of fruity, chocolate, etc. The population of female coffee will have a more sweet smell compared with males which are more bitter and darker. Moreover, Coffee also has Caffeine which is a significant substance for cups. If Coffee has too much Caffeine, it will affect their health.
Cup - This group of people requires Caffeine as the substance to life. They could not live without caffeine. Within the particular age, Cup needed Cupping as the way to receive Caffeine. It could be in the way of having skinship and more. If they lack caffeine for extended periods, it will lead to exhaustion and at worst comatose.
Decaf - Mainly used to call normal people. They are completely different among those two in terms of not needing caffeine to live and no ability to scent the aroma.
However, if Cup is addicted to caffeine at an immoderate rate. It will lead to coffee tolerance. It is the symptom of needing Caffeine in large amounts and will increase every time it hits. When it comes to the period of Caffeine decrease meant, it will lead to Caffeine withdrawal which leads to intense of exhaustion. Moreover, Coffee dependence is the symptom that occurs when Cups meet with the right Coffees.
4. Hoshinamida
This AU will mainly focus on unrequited love. If a person is crying from the unrequited love, their tears will be coming out as tiny stars. The often they are crying will affect their vision. At first, they will slowly lose the ability to see the colors and at the end, they will completely lose their vision and will not be able to see anymore.
5. Dream Verse
This AU will be all about dreams. The characters will be able to see and meet their soulmate in their dreams. The condition for this AU is, If the soulmate is close to each other, they will not be able to dream about one another. On the other hand, if they are far apart from each other they will be able to meet each other in their dreams. The important thing is if a person could not find their soulmate within the age of ___ (depending on the owner) the time they sleep will be longer than normal and can finally lead to death. Noting that the soulmate doesn’t always have to be a person that the main character will spend the rest of their life with, it is fine for the soulmate to just help each other prevent the long sleep, then disperse and have their path.

Category : Open Verse
In this universe, there are 3 types of people which are Ebony, Hypnos, and Norma. Those particular groups are differentiated by their own uniqueness.
Ebony - The least group of population in the world with 20% of all population. The specialty of this kind is that people of this kind will be born with the aromatic mixed with Odortherapy. The smell will develop at the age of 12.
Ebony is able to sleep normally with no need for other support.
**Odortherapy is the substance that is produced from biological cells. It helps to develop sleep.
Hypnos - The moderate population in the universe which is 30% of all. Categorized as the people that are unable to sleep. The symptom will occur at the age of 12. In the beginning, it will be as having a headache and being unable to concentrate and at worst lead to death. It could be resisted by using medication of Anti-VGL or having a relationship with Ebony.
Norma - The largest population of all at the percentage of 50. People in this group are able to sleep normally with no use of Odortherapy also unable to smell the Odortherapy.
There is no soulmate in this verse. Hypnosis is able to use the medication in their whole life but the cost of the medicine will be more expensive depending on the level of effectiveness.
7. Animal verse
In Animal AU, the writer can mix human appearance with animal appearance to create characters. For example, one character can have everything normal people have except they will have ears and tales like an animal and can also include some animal’s instinct into the characters too. All species can be used in this AU, it can be normal animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, and tigers or can be creative and use the animals from fairytales like a mermaid or dragon.
This AU will be similar to Omegaverse in terms of there will be hunter and prey or a rut that happened in animals. In this part, the writer can be creative and create their own story as they like.

Genderbend AU
BY : @mmerakii__
Category : Open verse
Everyone will be born with their main gender identity which is Men and Women. By the time they turn 15 years old, their physical body will be changed into the opposite gender which means a person who used to have a women's body will suddenly own a men’s body. It will take 1-3 days in the beginning and will be longer as they grow up. The maximum date that a person will be changed is 30 days, no more than that. By the time they turn 22 years old, if a person cannot find their soulmate, they will be trapped in the opposite gender body, this time they will not be able to change back and have to live in that body for the rest of their life.
Way to permanently stop the changing process
When a person knows exactly who is their soulmate, they will have to spend 24 hours together and can only be 10 meters apart from each other. The important thing is if on that day, a person did not be in the physical body that they want, they will have to take the emergency gender-changing pill before the end of the day before they sleep. This process needs to be done on one of their birthdays and will only work if the soulmate’s symbols are visible enough to see.
Emergency gender-changing pill
Can be purchased from any hospital, the pill will be active after 30 minutes and will last 48 hours. A person needs to be notified that they can only use this pill once in their life. The next time they use it will not be effective anymore.
Soulmate - the two of them will have the same symbol in the same place on their body (the owner can be creative for this part). At first, the symbol will be visible but will be hard to see, it will keep getting clearer as the two of them get close to each other.
Side note
When a person decides to permanently change their physical appearance, every part of their body will also be changed. This means if a woman wanted to permanently change her body appearance into men’s body, all of the women’s organs will be gone including the reproductive organs which means she will not be able to get pregnant anymore.
