I approve of the idea, in general, but I do have one question (and I apologise if it has been explained already, and I didn't pick up on it) . What's the rules regarding a prompt of an AU ending in which Charles' injury doesn't occur due to completely changed circumstances that are the focus of the plot. As in, if I wrote a prompt that said 'I'd like to see an AU ending of the movie where Charles convinced Erik not to kill Shaw', would I need to warn for ableism because it implies that Charles doesn't get hit by the bullet, or is it unnecessary because the rewriting of that scene is simply a side-effect of a different part of the movie plot that I want to see revised?
(I have a feeling I've worded that question terribly. If it makes no sense, let me know and I'll try to explain what I mean without twisting myself into tangles.)
