So, since my Dreamwidth f-list is pretty small right now...

Let's contemplate what would happened if infamous badficcer Cori Falls had been a Fire Emblem fan rather than a Pokemon fan.

FE6:
-Roy is a big evil meanie-pants who picks on Zephiel, who just wasn't loved enough as a child.
-Zephiel/Brunya, I suppose?
-A Jahn fangirl would have joined up with Cori and written her self-insert OC into a pairing with Jahn, who has mysteriously grown emotions. Well, he obviously has emotions, but "non-self-righteous ***hole" emotions, I mean.
-Desmond would be resurrected at least once to be put through an incredibly humiliating and undignified second death and everyone would remember this as The One Thing Cori Did Right.
-The Bern army would be a loving and benevolent place not at all focused on world conquest.
-At least one War Dragon of abnormal intelligence would be converted into a wise-cracking loudmouth obsessed with Zephiel and Brunya's sex life.
-The entire issue with Idoun would be completely whitewashed. That, or we'd find out she enjoyed being brainwashed. Or something.

Any other suggestions, Sarajayechan?I'll post FE7 and FE8 speculations later. :P

Re: Part II

...Did Cori ever write alternate timelines? I thought part of what drove her off the mental cliff was that she DIDN'T write alternate timelines. (Yes, Break From Canon - but that was still in lockstep with her WYDS timeline. And it was spurred by her being UNABLE to continue writing WYDS fics that were compatible with her timeline - push came to shove, and she decided the canon had to go.)

If she did, though - I can see that. Truth be told, I can see her missing the True Ending due to its ridiculous requirements at first and writing the redeemed!Lilina timeline, then panicking when she learned you could rescue Idoun and overhauling everything, a la the altered version of The Thrill of Defeat. :P That would allow for two timelines.

...actually, she didn't. Aside from "Broken Souls" her fics all took place in the same continuum.

YES, that sounds like Cori to me. :D "I wrote the Roy/Lilina timeline before I learned you could rescue Idoun, and that Roy was the one to do it! So any stories where Roy marries Lilina are an alternate universe, or rather a weird dream Roy had sometime before the battle with Idoun! In the REAL world, Roy's soul mate is Idoun while Lilina and Gonzales still redeem themselves and become lovers!"
