Let me introduce you to my Lavender AU
The Lavender AU is my Thomas the Tank Engine AU. In this AU I focus on two things.
Sudrian life in the 1950s-1960s, specifically what it was like to work as a Yard worker, Stationmaster, Driver, Fireman, or even one of Sir Topham Hatt's assistants
ANDHow Sodor tackled the decriminalization and in turn legalization of homosexuality, in turn, this au discusses 4 different gay relationships in the 1950s-1960s Sodor. I find it way more interesting to see this from the point of view of people who are/were living through it. And to show how slightly less tense life got as time went on.
But we'll tackle how Sodor handled this later.
I've tried to keep this AU easy enough to understand even if you have no knowlege of TTTE. But if there's any words I use that you don't get, there's definitions in the World Buildng tab!
Stick around! check out the character pages! then maybe some one-shots?
