MAY - Challenge #1 - Feudal Japan
I assume that people will take some time in learning about this comm, so the first month will be May. The AU setting of choice will be Feudal Japan.
So, how do you see the characters in this world? Who would be a courtier, who a ninja, who the Emperor, who a geisha, who a samurai who a ronin? Kimonos, katanas, weird hairdos, assassinations, intrigue, powerfights, integrity, honor, awesome sword technics...
Here's a little collage for visual reference.

Pics taken from the Internet, no idea who their rightful authors are, except for the last, which is Minekura's.
Feel free to comment and share your visions, your pics, your ideas...
You can start posting your works from right now (even if it's still April) till 30th May!

And I agree, Manx would make a wonderful geisha (working as a spy for Persia).
"Murase and Kudoh, investigators" ...hmmm, I like how that sounds.
I'm at a loss with Omi. He's not a character I've ever had a grip on, anyway. But Nagi strikes me as a member of the Shisengumi, like the famous Okita.
Hakkai+Crawford=the most silent and understated colliding of worlds ever. It would be great if somebody wrote a crossover where both are diplomats politely arguing their points in front of the emperor/daimyo/whatever.
