Zombie Lane 🌈

Zombie Lane

Synopsis: Zombie Lane follows childhood friends Michael, Ivy, and Jonah, as they try to navigate life now that they are in their twenties and roommates. Jonah is a pragmatic businessman, Michael a sensitive artist and philanthropist, and Ivy is… kind of a hot mess. Along for the ride are a Ivy's weird friends - including a one eyed janitor, a punkrock musician, and an accountant who bites. This, of course, complicates things.

The events of this story are canon to St. Agatha City!

• Dead or Alive - Zombie AU. Different from the Bite Me. I don't often talk about this, but Zombie Lane is kind of odd and weirdly unbalanced because its cast is entirely characters I got attached to from one-offs? And I wanted them to stick around. However, all of them were originally zombies from my 8 million Left 4 Dead fanfics. I made them humans into Zombie Lane, but kept the references (Zombie Lane itself is just the name of the street they live on, and a little callback) but in this AU, they get to be their horrifying, infected original selves! yyyayyyy...
• The Dead of Night - Prohibition Noir AU. Michael is the son of prohibitionist Governor Harvey Clark, and has gone missing under mysterious circumstances. Private eye, Ivy Kohen, has been hired by the Clark to track down Michael, and she is forced to team up with the St. Louis police force to do so, as it is feared that if Michael is found first by anyone else, he could be used as leverage. Those fears aren't unfounded, as bounty hunter Troy Ramone is hired by a Moonshiner Gang to close the case before she can. Speakeasies, backstabbing, tommy guns, and corpses abound in this fun-filled romp through the Depression.
• Till Death Do Us Part - Goofy action movie spoof AU with an ABBA soundtrack. Troy and Ivy are the main characters in this one.
• Cold Steel - Sci-Fi AU. Michael is an inventor who creates an android woman named IV. And then they kiss about it <3
• Warm Steel - Fantasy AU. Counterpart to Cold Steel I couldn't really find a way to care about.
• Bite Me - Apocalypse AU (but make it a black comedy.) The zombie apocalypse happened aaa. But that's okay! While most of the cast is now zombies (except for Ivy and Nate), Ivy is immune, and can communicate with them. Zombies aren't as bad as everyone says, especially when you can talk to them. Just wanting to be left alone by the government and its exterminators, Ivy teams up with the zombies (and Nate) forming a compound safe haven to fight off the evil horde of... government employees. Michael has a chainsaw.
• What Is Dead - Horror AU. Joey is a serial killer! And that's all I know so far!
• I, Frankenstein - Personality Swap AU. Too long to adequately summarize! Maybe I should post about it later, though...
• Quarantine - What if the cast never met? Takes place in 2025, if the characters met each other for the first time that year, instead of mostly growing up together.
