I have what is probably a stupid question but what is the difference between an Elseworlds and AU story?
Not a stupid question at all! This is actually an excellent question because it's something unique to this fandom and probably a lot of people don't know this.
Well, count me among the people who didn’t know this! So thanks for asking! Elseworlds was always kind of this nebulous definition in my head, but I didn’t worry too much about it since they were always listed together in my recent memory.
Thanks for the answer, Annie!
