Round 2! Mingling post! GO.

We'll be keeping this informal since I doubt the majority of people are ready to commit right this second.

This is a completely optional post for writers to toss up their possible ideas for this round so potential media creators can hop in and help the process along. People can also cheer on ideas that they would love to read, even if they don't feel they'd be able to create anything for it at this time.

Writers, simply follow this format when posting so everything can look nice and neat:

Fandom(s):
Character(s)/Pairing(s):
Vague story idea:


Later on in the writing period there will be a post for media creator's to make 'early claims' if they commented to this post and the writer has officially signed up. That will be...much later on most likely and I'll try to include more details before then. We'll see how everything works out before we set any ideas in stone just yet.

Commence with the experiment mingling!

Fandom: Final Fantasy IV

Characters: Edward- and Rydia-centric because I am nothing if not completely predictable. Most of the rest of the cast. Golbez. Archfiends. Eidolons, especially Ifrit. The Dark Elf. Despite my stated shipping preferences I don't think Edward/Rydia actually works for this fic. Canon pairings only so far, but I can't promise that Barbariccia won't get her claws into somebody by the end of the fic.

Vague story idea: SO I HAD THIS IDEA for an FF4 AU where Leviathan swallows both Edward and Rydia when he crashes the party's ship. Edward's presence is very obviously a mistake; while Rydia is training to become a real-deal summoner, Edward deals with being stranded in an alien world that views him as an interloper at best. Rydia walks the line between human and monster, Edward learns the music of the Feymarch, years pass, etc.

MEANWHILE, up on the surface, things progress pretty much as in the game until Cecil's deal with Golbez and the encounter with the Dark Elf. Not having Edward around results in a total failure to recover the Earth Crystal. Catastrophe ensues, and even the return of older and wiser Edward and Rydia might not be enough to stop it.

I am not sure how long this will end up being, so uh.

Dude. More than anything else in the world, I want this fic to happen.

\o/

I will do my best to make it happen.

u-um hi ilu yes plz ♥

<3
there are still a lot of issues to work out with the fic itself (many of these issues are named KAIN HIGHWIND) so I will probably be making a brainstorming post in my journal ^^;

Hahaha, well, I am good at kicking issues named KAIN HIGHWIND into shape. It's a specialty! (+3 to my Linguistics roll!)

Yes, I can see where Kain might be a bit uppity here. :D

Adding my comment to the chorus of huzzahs, because this sounds pretty darned awesome.

Words cannot express how awesome this idea is. :D

...ok, I am nosy and looked at your icons. Are you a BlazBlue fan? ^^;

I am!

Haven't playing that much recently, though, since Marvel vs Capcom 3 ate my brain.

[personal profile] jack_of_none 2011-04-03 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
Hahah, yeah. Me too, a bit (though I find MVC3 extremely confounding at times).

I'm always excited to see fighting game players in fandom XD

I'm still adjusting to the speed of the game, gawd. I can't get over how I need to put in these super-long button combinations in oh, 3 seconds? My brain can't keep with my hands half of the time. At least the inputs are easy. XD

And I hear you about fighting game players in fandom. Most people tend to be interested in the competitive side of things, which is fine, but it's always nice to find people who are interested in fannish stuff too. ^^

I NEED THIS AU.

[personal profile] jack_of_none 2011-04-02 10:12 am (UTC)(link)
I WILL DO MY BEST.

I am afraid it will become a gigantic ~thing~ but I guess I can always break it up into multiple fics if necessary.

I'll admit to being lured here by Ukefied...

This is an interesting take, and since FFIV is my absolute fave, I'd be more then happy to contribute some pretty pictures.

[personal profile] jack_of_none 2011-04-04 09:02 am (UTC)(link)
ZOMG.

That would be awesome.
