Wow, this section hasn't been recieving much attention as of late, has it? Well, being the crazy *and sometimes questionable* member I am, here are another few fiction ideas from me, after thinking for some time. 1) This one came to me after reading the "Who's Megaman's main girl?" Thread. Suppose, by some strange twist of fate (Or the author's whims), all of the younger females (Read: Tron, Roll, Shu, Denise) all end up living together in an inn, and Megaman is called there to keep the place in shape. It's somewhat Love Hina-esque, but I may end up handing this idea to someone else if they want to take a stab at it. 2) (In progress) This one is a Starfox Assault Crossover. 3 years after the end of Legends 2, Megaman is back on Terra when Glyde makes his stand and goes to make one last raid on Rhyship. Megaman and the Bonnes disagree on some things, but eventually come to the understanding that Glyde has to be stopped and join forces to stop him, but end up fighting something far more sinister. 3) Megaman is exploring a recently uncovered ruin, when he finds a whistle. He blows it, and is whisked away by some tornado to the Mushroom Kingdom, where he finds himself somewhat out of his element. Now he has to do battle against Bowser's forces using just his Buster and whatever else he had with him. Well, these are just floating ideas for the moment. Now comes the more important aspect of this post: what are your opinions on these few ideas?

Ah, I haven't written any fanfiction since "Awkward Date." It seems that, for whatever reason, my post in the drabbles section kind of cut everything off. Anyways, I love your first idea. I'd actually kind of like to see Denise in there; kind of an unlucky, bumbling character like Tenchi Muyo's Mihoshi. Not to mention that she might be a friend for Tron. The other two ideas I can't say much about. I don't know enough about Star Fox, and I can't really tell what you plan to do exactly with the Mario one. Just fighting Mario enemies doesn't constitute much of a plot, so I'm sure you have further development planned. On a completely random note, I'm planning to get to work on a comic on an unknown date crossing over BoBoBo and the Bonnes. I've thought it out, seriously. And I encourage you to write fan fiction! The section hasn't exactly been buzzing lately, you know?

Thanks for the encouragemant, Aim! Yeah, this spot's been inactive for a long time. About the Bobobo comic: If you post it, I'll read! Hm.( ) Like I said earlier, I might hand off the first idea to someone else if I can't get too many ideas for it, but seeing Tron and Denise work together got an image in my mind, which this emoticon describes. I can see your confusion about Starfox... I don't think many people played Assault, so I don't blame you if you don't know much. As for the Mario one, it was a floating idea I got when I played Mario 64 music as i played Legends.... which is something I'll never do again.

Ideas! Ideas are good. This area has been dead for some time. Fictions can be a pain to write, I suppose. Perhaps we should have a thread where people can simply post ideas they have on things they’d like to write. It might create some hype for it. We’ve been getting a huge influx of new art recently, so it’s probably safe to say that we’ll be steady there for some time, but I’ve hardly seen and fictions posted. Literature is a form of art too, you know. I have a couple of ideas I’d like to get opinions on myself, though I’ll save it for some other time. Now, as for your ideas, I’m sorry to say that I dislike crossovers, so the last couple on your list have just about no appeal to me. You could if you like though. The Mario one sounds like it could turn out well, since the world they create in Mario games seems to be constantly expanding and changing. You’d have a pretty wide range of settings and angles to choose from while writing without having to fear getting any plot holes when put against Nintendo’s Mushroom Kingdom. The Star Fox one would be more difficult, I imagine. They’ve created a much more rigid canon there. Still, if you’re worried about the size of the audience, I bet a ton of people have played Star Fox: Assault. I have no backing to that statement aside from the fact that Star Fox 64 was a marvelous game and that I know many people were waiting for a follow-up shooter and probably flocked to Assault when it was released. It was pretty underground all the same, but so was Legends. I suppose my point is that most people who have played legends have likely played either 64 or Assault. Either way, I wouldn’t worry about that too much; the people who read crossovers are usually the ones who know a bit about what is being crossed. The first one sounds... interesting, though. A bit too Hina-like if you ask me, but it could definitely have some potential once you develop it a bit, especially if you enjoy that sort of romance. Still, it’d be hard to compare a piece of writing to a graphic novel or anime like Love Hina. It was a great show/manga, but they just used far too much graphical humor and drama to make it an easy conversion from pictures to writing. If you’re up to it, I say go for it, but it’ll probably mean a bit of work it you want to get the same feel. And the same to anyone whom you might pass the idea on to. But whatever you might choose to do, good luck with it. P.S.— Bobobo and the Bonnes? A disturbing thought. I really can’t imagine how something like that would turn out. But if you really have something in mind, why not? You seem like the type who could pull something like that off. And if anything, you’ll get some good practice drawing in the process of making it. Good luck to you as well.

Wow, mltmlt22 even came. I'm surprised. Well, as I stated earlier, the Mario idea came to me when I mix game music to different series. I suppose it can be done, but I'll have to think of a different villian other than Bowser. (I want to be original with this one.) The only limitation here is the fact that I don't know too many noteworthy Mario villains (probably because I haven't played Mario in a LONG time) >_< As for the Starfox one, I have played the 64 version, and it is great. The reason I chose Assault is.... well, I can't resist the thought of Roll having to work with Tron. I can already forsee several squabbles in the future. That, and i want to see Glyde get what's been coming to him! As for the Hina-Esque one, that was a floating idea after getting too many thoughts jumbled at the same time. It's this story I may end up giving away to anyone who's interested.
