guardians_song: Ken Sugimori's concept art of the Pokemon starters, with the main characters and rival beside them. (kicking it oldschool)

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

...ooh, good point. :/ In that case she'd make Jahn act like Jessie's ex Antonio, even MORE abusive than he was in canon. Not only did he break Idoun's spirit, but he'd have hit her and called her names and tried to rape her.

I know, right? So many choices, each as horrible as the last.

True. Jahn isn't exactly a Good Guy, so Cori wouldn't have to twist canon THAT much. Just add onto it.

Wanna bet she also redeems Desmond in FE7 and has him killed by Jahn in order to manipulate Zephiel?

*nod* I was just thinking of Cori's love for Generation Xerox and how her heroes Must Never Kill Anyone, and her love of redeeming abusive parents (not only James's, but she also redeems Joey's dad in her YGO fics). In my mind it could go either way, but it would be interesting to see how Cori handled something outside her usual cookie-cutter patterns.

Yep. She's like Catherine Anderson, only at least Catherine seems like a kind woman and uses her OWN characters for her stories instead of mangling other canons.

Oh, that could work. "We were forced to marry, the priest was a real shit-heel and Murdock and I were soul-mates!"

Totally. And for once we'd agree with her and feel dirty. D:

LOL, yep.

This is more fun than it has the right to be.

Yyyyep. I've hated that fucker since the beginning.

(Oh God, Chrono Trigger. XD I'm a little rusty on that game but she would portray Ayla as a bitchy vamp out to destroy Marle and Crono's TWU WUB. And Marle's dad would be a total jerk about it until Marle cussed him out and he redeemed himself.)

Ooh, good point. Shit, first Lilina and now Marle. :( And poor Lucca would be reduced to Little Miss "You Belong With Me" with Marle as the bitchy Libby.

...oh God. I really liked Frog and Cori would ruin him so badly. And poor Lucca. ;_; Crono and Marle would be portrayed as complete dicks, of course.

Yep. D:

I can see her doing My Little Pony Tales. Fanon already paints Teddy as a jerkass woobie, so she'd just have to add on a lot of sappy wangst and either make Sweetheart his ~healing angel~. And Melody and Patch, two kinda jerkass girls she could easily turn into whiny damsels. And of course she'd turn the characters into humans, which in and of itself isn't bad but Cori write ponysex? No way!

I was for a short time. Cori would bash the seven shades of shit out of Tai, no doubt, and Shigeru would either be a Matt/Mimi fan or Matt/Mary Sue fan. And poor Davis would get bashed as badly as Tai for daring to have feelings for Kari.

Cori was pretty kind to Yugi overall. Never paid him a ton of attention like she did others, but she treated him with a great deal of respect.

Yep. Which makes me sad because I think I shipped Joe/Sora a little at one point. :( Poor Tai and Davis.

Oh, and Cyborg 009. Joe Shimamura would probably be another exception to her "I hate shounen protagonists" rule, since Joe is angsty and a woobie with a Troubled Past. Jet Link would be her punching bag for that fandom...possibly Great Britan, too, unless she took pity on him due to his own tragic angst. Oh, and Albert Heinrich. She'd have his dead fiancee survive.

Well, better in the sense that she stuck to her own little world from the outset rather than being decent at first and then devolving into epic fail. And she did grant two of her punching bags redemption. Otherwise it still sucked.

One time I also wrote up this huge post on how she'd muck up ATLA.
