Sabre Justice: Whew, finally I get this started. Of course my inspiration is a bit low right now, lucky I happen to really like exposition. Hopefully that'll make it slightly less Continuity Lock-Out for the uninitiated, but I'm not counting on it.

I'll try to add more every day, but given this is basically unedited massive multi-crossover fanfic I'm going to need a lot of help to make this actually good, so ideas, suggestions, editing and spellchecks are welcome.

Trope Kira: I'll be willing to help you if you're willing to help me touch up Tales of Redemption down at the the Book of Trope. Also, I added Horror's Hand so that the GUAE would know about the plans of the Disgraces.

Peteman: I have this image stuck in my head where Lord Djibril confronts his rival Miko, gives an overblown speech declaring his intent to defeat her in revenge for beating the crap out of him, and gets a blank stare in response, and asks him to narrow it down.

Sabre Justice: If you have the image, I encourage you to write it (somewhere, so we can edit and insert it so it fits in with the story) because I have no idea who those characters are and how they should be written. Although assuming they're both Gundam pilots, I expect they'll meet about as soon as the gates fall and the big battle begins.

Speaking of which, as soon as I get my head straight tonight I'll work on the next chapter. And what the heck is Horror's Hand?

Chris X: However, Djibril is not a Gundam Pilot. Myself, I think I'll give my hand to writing once again, but I am now more or less involving myself between the rematch of both Lamia and Juergen, especially Juergen flaunting that he has defeated her once and he'll do it again... only for Lamia to mow him down and shows his place. Though things may get a bit more complicated than that.

Peteman: My idea is that he confronts her, gives his big villain monologue, gets a blank stare, and in response he furiously sends his brainwashed expendable child soldiers (the School Days kids) at her in Destroy Gundams, only for her to thrash them because he didn't upgrade them to artifact level, making them useless against gods. He has this crucial oversight pointed out by one of the other disgraces.

Trope Kira: Horror's hand is a huge gauntlet with an eye in the middle that embodies fear, makes you live your own worst nightmare. In the hands of a God-powered Mandy, it could probably the most terrifying thing ever.

Sabre Justice: Given the planned smash-and-grab on the Treasury, it's almost definitely gonna end up in the hands of whoever will cause the most hilarity to ensue.

Trope Kira: Nevermind, I dropped the hand and I'm running through the Treasures to see who gets what. Anything I haven't figured out, you can help me fill in.

  • Chekhov's Gun: ???
  • MacGuffin: ???

  • Master Sword: Eragon. It says only Link can carry it, but the Mages can probably cancel out the spell that keeps anyone else from doing so.

Update: Episode 2 partly written. I'm just doing some more character research at the moment... there's so many damn gods that I'm not sure which ones I should use, and which ones I even can use. I could use a few paragraphs from others who know what they're on about.

Sabre Justice: The Disgraces probably won't steal everything, probably only whatever looks useful, shiny and/or interesting. As for the Eldar Wand... they'll fight for it. Eragon will try to pull out the Master Sword, but eventually gives up and goes for one of the cursed blades.

Trope Kira: Well, can we give the Tweo Gladiators the Belt? We can make them knights that way. Plus, we can at least get on for each person attacking. I felt that Eragon should wield the Master Sword because he's a Chosen One as well.

Schizo Technician: Even if he could pull it out, the moment he tried to use it for ill, it'd become impossible for him to use (electric shock? Too heavy? whatever). However unless his name is Link and he's got a Triforce emblem on the back of his left hand, he's not the correct chosen one, and shoudn't be able to pull it out.

Trope Kira: You don't become the God of Gary Stu and have at least four other Sues around you without getting some way of fucking canon in the ass, if you'll forgive the statement, even if there was such restraints, their Sue powers can override them.

Schizo Technician: Ah. In that case, as long as Link kills/subdues/horrifically maims him personally in the end.

Joysweeper: Ack! You're using Wedge! I'm not sure if I should be joyful or apprehensive! Well, it's in your hands. If you want Lord Vader to suddenly appear in the story, just have a character teasingly call Wedge "Vader", and pick if you want my lord's mood to be homicidal or bitterly sardonic, and if you want him on foot or in his TIE-Advanced. Mara could get him back out of the picture, for the moment at least, by calling him out from the sidelines somewhere, and later appearing again and saying he won't be a problem, but not elaborating. She won't have a mount or an X-Wing, but she might have a small fighter or a Cool Ship like the Jade's Fire. I know that might be keeping too much to one verse's characters. Just putting it out there.

Sabre Justice: This must be almost what having fans is like. I think I'll stick to my vision, mostly... and I'll try not to worry about plotholes because that would be like worrying about words.

Batfan: I see that Scrappy hasn't been marked for an artifact yet. I like the idea of giving him either the Death Note or the Green Lantern Ring. The idea of giving one of the most annoying and ineffectual characters one of the most powerful artifacts is to me just inherently funny. Plus, giving him one of those two items in particular means that he would hear about how powerful they are, and of course want them for himself, but would only later discover that he can't use them bescause he doesn't have any fingers! Of those two, I would probably say the Death Note, if only because it's possible to stretch the Willing Suspension of Disbelief enough (especially considered how anthropomorphic he his) to give him a ring, but there's no way he could use the Death Note.


Sabre Justice: Just noting, I haven't forgotten about it, I just have a two second attention span and my internet finally works at full capacity again. I'll down some Pepsi Max and try to work on the next chapter soon.

See, I told ya! On another note, I finally looked up Berii on google images to find out what she actually looks like... what a freaking letdown, couldn't a bona fide Sue at least have a more interesting costume?! And what's wrong with having a cute little bunny fluffball tail, the Moe Moe crowd would love it. Gah, now I understand your hate. HATE.

Anyway, next chapter partially up, and if you understand the title, you get a doughnut.

I gotta say, I hope this thing isn't too painful to read. I tend to hate my own work, and we're all our own worst editors. I might be leaning more and more towards a Refuge in Audacity approach to this, as the setting makes no sense no matter how I think about it.
