OMFG, humanstuck /)_(\ Just - argh. 100% with you on that.
I got into speculative fiction for the speculative parts. If you take away the speculative parts, then it's just fiction, and I am left cold. Give me situations that I will likely never see in real life, and then we'll talk.
S'why I rarely go for extreme AUs in general. Coffee shop and Bakery AUs tend to be exceptions, but I still prefer them with at least a nod to the speculative elements in the original canon.
