[oh so they don't have fanfiction in Rean's world? How disappointing. So many worlds seem to lack such a precious treasure. He sighs and explains]
Fanfictions are stories that're based on an already established story, but written by someone whose not the original author or acknowledged as "canon". Canon, of course, meaning that it's part of the true narrative of the original story...kind of like church canon law, but for fictional stories.
[Still just as serious though]
AU means "alternate universe". It's a genre of fanfiction where they use the same characters but put them in a different setting, usually to see how different circumstances would change things.
Like "What if Rex Lapis worked in a coffee shop instead of being an Archon?". A story like that would be considered an AU fanfiction.
