All Purpose Negima Fanfiction Thread

You know, in URAE, familial neglect appears to be a genetic trait of the Springfield family. The only one who doesn't seem to have it is Nekane. Nagi is Nagi, While Negi has sent letters he doesn't call or he'd have learned his sister has left home, Illya is neglecting BOTH her brothers, and Siesta has been in the same house as Negi a bunch of times and hasn't even tried to meet him after she found out their connection, never mind trying to talk to him.

Also, random thought:

Siesta is just terrified of confronting Negi with the info. Illya is just a victim of the Fate plot going into hibernation until I figure out what to do with it, but if she counts, Arika deserves a special mention as well, for never bothering to approach Negi or even spy on him.

Then again, Arika and Negi are supposed to be basically identical, personality-wise. In their case, they're just kind of stupid that way. Even if Nagi were there to force them together, they'd probably be really and uncomfortably formal with each other (which would drive him nuts). Like what we see when he's stuck in the pseudo Cosmo Enthelecheia illusion thingy.

Though, if you stop to think about it, it makes perfect sense why she wouldn't approach him. She'd likely think that she's unworthy of approaching him because of the whole abandonment thing, and the more she stalls and stays back, the more guilt she'd feel over it, which would lead to beating herself up more.

They're very similar like that, the thing is, Negi always had someone to punch him to get him out of the 'beating myself up' phase so he could start with the 'solving the problem' phase, while Arika kinda no longer has the guy who was doing that for her..

And her relationship with Rei hasn't progressed tot he mana transfer stage yet, so no issues have yet been resolved.

Stupid things that make me want to write them in regardless: UQ Holder's Naked Loli Race was idiotic to the end, and yet I still want to adapt it for the Mahorafest. And now, DC's idiotic reveal about the Joker actually being three different people... wow, just wow, that kinda takes real balls to come up with. A complete lack of brains, but also balls. If nothing else it should make for good Clown Princesses gag fodder.

Arika needs a proper reckless idiot to push her into action.

UQ Holder plot bunny: Instead of Touta, Yukihime starts the series raising a 'Negi' in the countryside. Said Negi believes he's Negi Jr., the grandson of Negi Springfield, but after Professor Scummypants strikes, Negi learns he's actually the conscious-soul-mind of Negi himself transplanted into a cloned body, while his original, comatose and hollow body is being used by the Lifemaker as his/her latest meat puppet host. Due to difficulties with the soul transfer, Negi only can remember events up to the end of Negima by now (so we have to worry about being Jossed as little as possible), but basically, this gets us a revived Boy!Negi reeling from being out of time, with his original personality back, and out to find out what's happened in the gap he can't remember... and to set as many things right as possible.

Is that workable?

Seems legit to me.

I see no glaring problems with it.

Well, I do see at least one.

After all, if Negi behaves like Negi before his memories come back, as he should 'cause it's still Negi's soul, there's no way that he'd have friends like Touta did.

Naked Loli race?

...

...

...

Damnit, I know I'm going to regret asking but what?

Fate Grand Order players will know me as Ryusei-Go.

It was a thing of transcendent beauty. And naked lolis. Which are transcendentally beautiful.

OM, do you really want to use the UQ equivalent of the old 'Naruto was actually the Yondaime with amnesia' fanfic plot?

Aye. You need to do something to cut Negi down some so he's not completely broken.

Ah! I've got it! Evangeline's been hiding his identity. To that end, she hasn't been training him magically, making him magically weaker than start of series Negi. And as a clone, he's human, not immortal. Meaning none of the ridiculous Magia Erebea powered BS canon Negi pulled. At least until he can get strong enough to survive the corruption of Magia Erebea again, anyways.

After that, just don't turn him into a vampire, and you've got a less super-special-awesome-lol character than Touta. Power-wise, anyways.

Actually, you could totally get away with him being unable to use ME without it killing him at all, by making it so his body isn't a clone of Negi's, but someone else's. It wouldn't even be hard to justify, if you just make it so that Negi's body is impossible to clone or something.

I am now obligated to research the 'naked loli race' and 'three people as the Joker,' instead of writing like I should be doing.

I love researching too much.

Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!

Nagi clone with Negi's mind. Negi would probably be thrilled.

You are now thinking of Negi spending hours just looking at himself in the mirror.

Funny, because we do occasionally find a seller who actually knows what he's talking about when it comes to comparing the products he's selling. And rarer still is the seller who, when faced with a customer that wants specs that aren't available in his shop, is willing to point said customer towards one or two other shops within the vicinity that are likely to have what said customer wants. I get the impression that they do that in an effort to improve their image in the customer's eyes by coming across as putting what's best for the customer over what's best for their (the seller's) profit margin, and thus increase the likelihood of the customer coming back to them later if they want something else.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.

You cannot expect a merchant to mind your best interesests rather than his own, Marq. If he does, it's the exception, not the rule.

Seriously, when buying something like, say, the components for your PC, never ask the seller, ask random assholes over the internet who don't stand to make a profit out of you. Random assholes over the internet can be very helpful if you ask them about what they're nerds about.

Just try to verify what they tell you, there's always the chance of one of those douche bags who give bad advice just to mess with you

Fate Grand Order players will know me as Ryusei-Go.

Yeah, but usually they're called out by the rest of the community, mostly because for the computornerdz, this is serious business.

I don't know a lot about Naruto fanfiction or its domineering trends.

Nagi clone with Negi's mind. Negi would probably be thrilled.

On the other hand, they already are so physically identical you could argue there's no real change out of the minds and the acquired powersets.

Well, Negi wears glasses. So there's that. Although it could be that Nagi needed them too and never bothered to get any. Or it could be that they're there to help Negi study small objects, and aren't actually prescription.

Negi also has two-tone hair.

Actually, Nagi needing glasses but not wearing any might explain why he favored hand to hand combat and thousand bolts. if he ws near-sighted, hand to hand meant he'd always be able to see his enemy and thousand bolts essentially just lets him fire-and-forget, not needing to aim beyond having a general direction.

He'd have to be nearsighted, because he can read just fine (he needed to read the incantation to the Thousand Thunderbolts off a cheat sheet after all).
