I been thinking about ideas for ASOUE fanfics, however most of them aren't very good or haven't been well thought out yet. One thing idea I did have really stick to me. I recently started replaying the Arkham Batman games and I had this thought (An ASOUE AU where characters take over certain roles in the Batman DC Universe).
Basically the plot is this: The Baudelaire Orphans having witnessed their parents deaths one after going to the opera, vow to avenge them by becoming vigilantes (a word which here means to punish crimes summarily as opposed to the Law which justice rarely prevails). With Violet (Batgirl), Klaus (Batboy) and Sunny (BatBaby) fight the criminals of the City.
(Note: I'm still working on their Bat-themed superhero names)
The main villains are the same from the book series with Olaf (as Joker), Esme (Harley), Georgina (Mad Hatter/Hattress?). Other character I'm not so sure yet. But yeah that's my AU idea.

Kinda cool! I’m also working on a slightly different superhero AU, mine focuses on a twelve-year-old Sunny Baudelaire.

Maybe Jean, I haven't decided yet.
I do have ground rules when writing this.
1. The main story takes place in 1939 (same year as the first Batman comic came out). Plus since the original illustrations of the book look like it's from the 1920-30's, that would fit perfectly. Also since it's an AU rather than canon.
2. All characters involved in this fanfic from the original book series of ASOUE, must somehow be tied into the Batman universe in other character's roles. For example: Beatrice and Bertrand Baudelaire are stand ins for Thomas and Martha Wayne. Lemony I'm either thinking he could be Commissioner Gordon or Alfred Pennyworth.
3. References to ASOUE are allowed along with literary ones, so long as they make sense. Plus references to the original Batman comic lore is ok too.

I like this idea, especially the villains and Lemony as Commissioner Gordon.
