Rejected Ideas

Okay, here's one I just dug up and reread for the first time in ten or twenty years: Jim Bader's A Tale of Two Wallets. Late 1990s-vintage Ranma-centric megacrossover (I identified nearly twenty different works, either as major parts or cameos, and I'm sure there are more that went right past me because I was unfamiliar with them and didn't recognize them). Worth a look. Sorta-kinda finished? The main story seems to conclude properly, but there's an incomplete epilogue/sequel tacked onto the end of it, which is unlikely to ever be finished as I seem to recall that Bader passed away some years ago.

Anyway, you can find it on MediaMiner here, or on Fanfiction.net here (link goes to chapter 2, because chapter 1 is actually a genealogy full of spoilers).

I don't care what that story says. I don't care how well the Makoto/Ukyo relationship is developing as of chapter 90. Our version of Makoto is not going to think that Ukyo reminds Makoto of her sempai.

Guys, guys, what do you think the chances that we can cure Sakura Matou's case of magic worms with a few doses of ivermectin?

Happosai's page on our wiki says in part:

The thought of Happosai with a power-up can chill the blood of the most fearsome fighters. (Yes, including Lind.) But it isn't impossible. Everything he has been shown to do has been with either raw skill or life force; he is neither a mage nor an esper. Yet.

So, teach him some magic, and then send him up against Salem.

Place your bets... as to whether we'll ever write this crack idea.

You know, in fanon at least he knows enough magic to summon demons...

A rejected scene.

Accelerator snorted. "If you're counting me in that, count me out. It doesn't affect me."

"And why doesn't it affect you?"

"Because I'm so overpowered that putting me in a story usually results in a curb-stomp battle."

Rob's phone rang. "Hello? ... I'll tell him." Hanging up, he continued, "Ferris Bueller called. He wants his shtick back."
