I think the worst part is that it almost certainly exists somewhere...

ISTR seeing that as a crossover with Sailor Moon included.

Sounds more like an advertisement than anything else.

Pepper Pott's Lonely Hearts Club Band?

I am reminded of something on my list of ideas for this thread.

Part because I'm a huge fan of the court of Isaac Parker, and I tend to loathe pop artists of fifty years ago. Part because it just makes sense.

Thank you.

Not to take away from the beautiful simplicity of the original, but why not mix in a bit of Montana and/or Montana?  The former fits in almost seamlessly, but the latter is nice for opportunities to really jack up the wrongness.

... Tony Montana wouldn't last five seconds against Human-Weapon!Hana.

Perhaps not... but he'd make a great character for the father-figure... Especially for the obligatory high school musical song-and-dance number.

And now I can hear Billy Ray Cyrus saying, "Say hello to my little friend!" in his Kentucky accent.

Something that popped into my head yesterday: What would Iron Man look like if done in the Warhammer 40K style? Which immediately made me try to think of a chapter for Tech-Brother Antonius. Sadly, not many of the Astartes go for the red and gold color scheme. Which, of course, leads to a strange Deathwatch team consisting of Tech-Brother Antonius, two Officio Assasinorum agents code-named Hawk and Widow, a Space Wolf with a Thunder Hammer, a massive Ogryn, and a captain of the Imperial Guard recently released from a stasis capsule found in a space hulk. All led by an Inquisitor named Fury, avenging in the Emperor's Name.

But like Ciaphas Cain, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM, he'd inspire the troops rather than scaring them.  Unlike Cain, he'd be doing it because he's "for reals" that whack -- errr, I mean that devoted to His Divine Majesty.

Well, Emperor Strephon never got around to revoking his commission... so, yeah, at least officially he's a hero of the Third Imperium.

Quote:You mean (gasp, shock, surprise) Cain ISN'T a genuine HERO OF THE IMPERIUM???

The answer to your question is multiple choice:
a.  Of course Cain is a genuine HERO OF THE IMPERIUM, just not for the reasons most people think.
b.  Asking that proves you are not cleared for the Cain Archives edited by Inquisitor Vail.  You are therefore sentenced to expiate your crimes by dying in a Penal Legion.
c.  As a prophet of the Emperor and physical conduit of His Divine Will, Cain cannot be a Hero, any more than your finger can be a hero, even if you use it to push a button ordering the extermination of an intelligent alien species which is of no use to the Imperium.
d.  42.

On the SJGames forums, William Keith Wrote:My Little Pony: Friendship is Sorcery.

The sheer amount of fan energy hurled at the show has almost certainly created an Ethereal Domain of Equestria, but it's not likely to last long beyond the show's run. Nor are the characters likely to be allowed openly on Earth any time soon by Heaven, and they just don't strike me as being amenable to any but the best-disguised proposals from Hell. It is entirely plausible, then, that some enterprising Sorcerers would propose that the Mane Six stabilize themselves by binding as familiars. Power and security through friendship? Makes perfect sense!

The natural Affinities are Beasts (ponies) and their various Emotion strands, with Twilight taking Glamour or a similar Magic-like affinity. Dash would have an additional element of Speed, and Fluttershy's Beast strand is probably stronger than the others'. (No, I don't think Jordi would like her; she possesses an extremely humanized ideal of animal nature.) Whether the Elements of Harmony exist as artifacts is uncertain, though if they did I can easily see them as being kept by Blandine, to be requested for emergencies.

(Blandine, taking Celestia as an ethereal icon? Gee, can't at all imagine that, can I. ^_^ )

So I guess this is a Should Be, not a Should Not Be...

...and that immediately starts me thinking about parallels... and some sort of bizarre attempt (run on fairly strong resonances, superior-level power, and a whole lot of "not here for long, but tons of it right now" essence) by "Celestia" to use these new ethereals in an attempt to redeem "Nightmare Moon" back into the loving sister that she used to be before frustration and jealousy got to her.

In a sufficiently Bright world, there's actually a decent chance of it working.  In a Darker, lower-contrast world, it's basically an attempt to distract Beleth with confusion and offense at the very idea, while more competent servitors do something risky and high-payoff.  (stealing a few sacks-full of demon hearts, for example).

Incidentally, I could totally see this as the result of a servitor of Eli trying to put together something that might please Blandine (while annoying Beleth) and rolling Divine Intervention.

That was bad.  Really bad.  It was so incredibly horribad that it crosses the line from silly to crackfic, and demands to be written.
Possibly with an omake of Harry Potter, Pinball Wizard.
