1''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/48196909/chapters/121541077 The Nyanny]]'' is an AU of ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'', where everyone is their canon species but in a modern setting. Here, Catra is taking a gap year for her studies as a live-in nanny, and gets hired by Adora to watch her child Finn, completely upending their world.
2----
3* AlternateUniverse: The story is an AU based on the modern world, but with canon species carried over.
4* ArtificialLimbs: Adora's company in this AU makes advanced prosthetics, and Adora herself has one for her left arm, which Finn calls "She-Ra".
5* DisappearedDad:
6** Catra's father wanted nothing to do with her or her mother after the latter got pregnant.
7** From pictures that Catra's seen, Adora definitely carried Finn herself, so their biological father is a mystery. It's later revealed that Adora used a sperm donor while in a relationship with a Magicat woman.
8* DrunkOnMilk: When Entrapta is doing a tune-up on Adora's prosthetic arm, she administers some drugs to help with the process. Unfortunately, due to her {{Workaholic}} tendencies, Adora starts acting drunk/high as a result, and Entrapta has to call Catra to get her.
9* FearOfThunder: Both Catra and Finn express a dislike of thunder.
10* ParentalAbandonment: Adora's partner when she had Finn via a sperm donor, Melody, abandoned Adora and their child.
11* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Several characters who were unrelated to Adora in canon, like Frosta and Mara, become part of her family tree here.
12* ShipperOnDeck: It's implied that some members of Adora's friends and family ship her and Catra.
13* SexyCatPerson: Catra is still a humanoid feline, and still quite attractive, to the point that one wife rejected her as a nanny candidate because she viewed Catra as too pretty to be left around her husband. Catra could have objected that she was a lesbian, but didn't want the job because of her sexuality.
14* TangledFamilyTree: Adora's family tree is a bit complex, to the point that the author made a [[https://rinniiart.tumblr.com/post/735764802049294336/im-having-a-little-trouble-keeping-adoras-family family tree to help readers keep track of it all]].
15* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: Catra and Finn are not biological parent and child here.
16* WhatYouAreInTheDark: Adora apparently makes donations to places like children's hospitals on a semi-regular basis, but many of said donations are anonymous, or at least supposed to be.
17* {{Workaholic}}: Save for when she's spending time with Finn, Adora spends almost all her time working, to the point that her sleep schedule seriously suffers.
