For right now, I have two - and, as far as I know, there probably won't be any more. Especially since I already have plenty of AUs for my other fandom, Back to the Future.
My main universe is the one where the events of the books take place. I set the series of events between the years 1981 and 1983. I have Duncan and Quigley Quagmire portrayed by Michael J Fox, Isadora Quagmire portrayed by Lea Thompson, and Jerome Squalor portrayed by Crispin Glover. Some back to the future characters, such as Doc Brown and Jennifer Parker exist in this universe. Doc is distantly related to the Baudelaires, and Lorraine Baines is Mrs. Quagmire. Mr. Quagmire is also a descendant of Seamus McFly. Doc has been recruited to the VFD at the age of twelve. Also, Biff is a count. The VFD schism has become officially recognized in the year 1965.
The other universe is one that I share with Emma Squalor. Basically, the BTTF aspects are based on my interpretation - while the ASOUE aspects are based on Emma's interpretation. That means her Jerome Squalor is just one year older than my Marty McFly, so we figured that they could be friends. Doc and Lorraine were recruited to the VFD at the same time as their counterparts in my main ASOUE Universe - but, in this universe, Lorraine is not Mrs. Quagmire. When the gang takes a trip to the year 2005, we'll meet the Baudelaires and Quagmires. While the Baudelaire mansion did still burn down, the parents are still alive. Also, the schism has not yet occurred in 1985.

Well, in my head, I've created five verses but won't be posting them all at the same time because it would require much time. 1 First one is the one I'm working on right now ASOLE 2 Is a ficverse that has something to do with a little snake. 3 Is a ficverse that includes a certain triangle. 4 Is one about a crafty go-happy person. 5 Is about a certain person of Injustice.

Only one so far. I might make a second one in the future.

Only one. YASoUE, and the series that will follow it are in the same continuity.

Of course, never say never. I might, one day, come up with a universe where Marty McFly can naturally co-exist with the Quagmires and Jerome (my version). It could require fudging the family tree, quite a bit.
Possible ideas:
* Lucas Squalor still marries Annette White's sister, Charlotte (who are twins in the ASOUE Universe). Annette still marries William McFly (who also marry in the BTTF Universe). * Reginald Squalor marries Sylvia Larson's sister (forgot if I gave her a name), instead of Sylvia herself. Arthur McFly (who survives) marries Sylvia. * Alice McFly still marries Theodore Quagmire. * Give Lorraine Baines a twin sister. Lorraine marries George McFly, the twin marries Rupert Quagmire.
Probably the series of unfortunate events wouldn't take place in this universe, and most certainly not for the Quagmire. I might borrow the idea that Emma Squalor came up with for our shared universe. The Baudelaire mansion still burns down, but the Baudelaire parents (who were not in the mansion) survive. I guess, in both cases, the existence of the McFlys prevents the elder Baudelaires from meeting their doom.
Although, I wonder how Marty and Lorraine would feel about the Quagmire triplets and Lorraine's twin being much richer than them.
Just throwing some ideas around. It could change. Then again, I also have some misgivings with this.

Upon thinking about it, I'm not sure if that universe would work out too well. There are too many contrived coincidences (especially regarding the birth dates of George and Marty), and reconciling with the idea that Marty's immediate family are not as wealthy as some of their extended family.
I have an idea that might work better. Marty from the BTTF Universe gets into a fight with his alcoholic mother (being the original timeline), and he runs off. He runs into a portal that brings him into the ASOUE Universe, and he can't get back to his world. It could occur either sometime during the series, or shortly after. The Quagmires accept Marty as part of their family. How's that sound?

Thanks. I guess Quigley and Duncan both have a little of Marty in them, but I always figured Quigley to be more the Marty-type. However, Duncan is the one dating Jennifer - and also the one who loves Huey Lewis and The News. I guess it would go sort of like this: Quigley --> Marty --> Duncan --> Calvin/Artie. Calvin/Artie would be the most conservative of the group.

For some reason, Calvin/Artie never struck me as conservative.

I have already gave names for first six books. I think I will write main 15 books( not including Kit Snicket's diary). The Tragic Tale which I published two or three months ago here doesn't belong to this series.
