Kerry's thread at .moon about giving away some of her story ideas gave me the inspiration to make this post -- which I hope to make a point of updating regularly -- listing all the story ideas I've had (and can remember). Unlike Kerry's thread, this really isn't about giving away fic ideas, but if something does catch your eye and it's marked as abandoned/unmarked, then feel free to take. Just leave me a note so I can read it when it's finished. ^_^ (Credit is nice, but not really necessary for most of these ideas, since they're so generic in the first place. You can probably even take an idea I'm actually working on and come up with a completely different plot than mine if you really want.)

Current fandoms represented:

Sailor Moon - 18 stories, plus four crossovers
Kaleido Star - 2 stories, plus a crossover
Fruits Basket - 2 stories
Death Note - 2 stories
Witch Hunter Robin - Crossover
Card Captor Sakura - Crossover
Someday's Dreamers - 1 story
Princess Nine - 1 story
School Rumble - 1 story
Harry Potter - 1 story
Grey's Anatomy - Crossover
Ghost Whisperer - Crossover

Key:

Bold - Current Work-in-Progress
Italics - Back-burnered, may come back to someday.
Underline - Would like to write eventually, although there's no guarantee I will.
Striked-out - Worked on some, decided to abandon. Slight possibility I may come back to it, but not likely. Up for grabs.
Normal - Random ideas I have no current plans to write, but you never know... Also up for grabs.

Considering my last entry, I just had to do this meme.

Name five crossovers you'd love to read or write one of these days, no matter how cracked-out or improbable.

1. Sailor Moon/Grey's Anatomy - I think it would be really interesting if either Ami or Mamoru ended up interning at Seattle Grace, and the hospital ended up having to deal with the casualties of a youma attack, having no idea what was going on.

2. Card Captor Sakura/Ghost Whisperer - Melinda sees ghosts, Touya sees ghosts... It's a no-brainer. (See previous entry)

3. Sailor Moon/Witch Hunter Robin - I really do want to write this eventually. My idea has Robin, whose craft is fire, being related to Rei, a fact they discover when the STNJ starts investigating the Sailor Senshi, who they think are witches.

4. Someday's Dreamers/Harry Potter - A lot of HP crossovers from what I hear tend to be with series that don't really fit in with it, but Someday's Dreamers really would be a plausible HP crossover partner, IMO. Both series are about magical people learning how to use their powers, so I think they would complement each other well if done correctly. 

5. Absolute Boyfriend/Chobits/Hand Maid May - *laughs* Yeah, I just want to see how somebody would handle a crossover with these three series about robots who look like people. I bet it would be a lot of fun. ^_^

You know, a Card Captor Sakura/Ghost Whisperer crossover would be so plausible, what with Touya being able to see ghosts and all. All you'd have to do is figure out a reason for Touya to visit America or for Melinda to come to Tomoeda, which really wouldn't be too hard considering that Melinda owns an antique shop. She could have somehow ended up with something belonging to Clow Reed and decide to do a little research...

Heh, yeah. I don't know where I come up with these strange anime/live action crossover ideas. First it was a Sailor Moon/Grey's Anatomy crossover, and now this CCS/GW plot bunny is hopping around in my head, although I doubt I'll ever get around to writing it. Still, I think it really could work.

Anyway, as you can probably guess, my CCS manga came in yesterday. Yay! ^_^ Well, at least some of it. About half the volumes are on backorder, but I did get the first four of the first series and two, three, and four of Master of the Clow. I've read the first three so far, and I'm very much enjoying it, although I think I like anime!Sakura more than manga!Sakura. The anime did a good job of making her less of a stereotypical shoujo heroine. For example, manga!Sakura seems to be a habitual oversleeper, while anime!Sakura generally wakes up in time to at least eat her breakfast at the table, rather than scarfing it down on her way out like manga!Sakura always does. She sometimes oversleeps, of course, but nowhere as much as manga!Sakura. Also, manga!Sakura is even more Yukito-crazed than anime!Sakura, to the point that it's kind of annoying rather than cute. Oh, well. The manga is still very good (if I ignore the creepy scene where Terada-sensei gives Rika an engagement ring).

I also think I may have an idea for my Nanowrimo novel this year. It's still a bit vague at the moment, but I'm thinking of calling it A Life Less Ordinary, and it's about a teenage girl named Leah who is bored of her life in a small, New England(?) town until she meets a dying boy who teaches her to the value the life she has. Or something like that. Like I said, it's still in the planning stages at the moment, but I think it'll turn out all right. Anything would be better than last year's Mothers of the Bride.

Christmas shopping is officially done.

Our first stop was Best Buy, where Mom proceeded to go DVD-crazy. ^_^ Seriously, I think she bought like five or six DVDs, plus a cheap Dean Martin Christmas CD she wanted for one song. I also picked out the Pretear boxset for one of my gifts, which was amazingly cheap. Remember a vent I made at ASMR a couple of months ago talking about how it would be cheaper to go ahead and buy the boxset instead of buying the two more DVDs I need as singles (which go for about $27 each)? Well, the boxset I found at Best Buy ended up cheaper than one single DVD. Twenty-three dollars! Twenty-three dollars for thirteen episodes! How much of a deal is that? Over at B&N's website, the same boxset (or so I assume) is $35, and I thought that was a deal. I wonder why there's so much of a difference in prices...

Speaking of boxsets, Pretear wasn't the only good deal I found at Best Buy, although I only got the one set since Mom only had sixty dollars set aside to spend on my presents. :( The Angelic Layer and Neon Genesis Evangelion Platinum Collection boxsets were also way under their listed B&N prices. Over at the B&N website, they go for around $45 and $80 respectively. Their Best Buy prices? About thirty-eight dollars for Angelic Layer and fifty-eight dollars for Evangelion. O.o With those prices, I might go ahead and buy them myself (at least Evangelion; I really like Angelic Layer, but it's not one of my absolute favorites).

Remind me to always check Best Buy first before I order any more anime from B&N.

Our next stop was Deerbrook Mall, namely Barnes & Noble. Mom bought Laura a couple of sweaters and a Hershey's Kiss pillow from J.C. Penney, but I spent most of my time in the manga section of B&N. ^_^ Unfortunately, they only had the second and third volumes of RahXephon in stock, so I didn't get to buy anything for myself. I did, however, pick out the newest volumes of Ayashi no Ceres and Fushigi Yugi, as well of two volumes of Fruits Basket, for Christmas, so I'll be almost caught up on my series. ^_^ I just need to find Vol. 9 of Fruits Basket, but since I've read the scanlations, I'm not in that big of a rush.

After we finished up at the mall, we then went to Wal-mart for groceries and I got presents for Crystle and Hunter. (Family gifts were already taken care of.) I think they're really going to like them. For Crystle, I got her a matching scarf and hat set, along with a pair of really cute frog-covered (she likes frogs ^_^) toe socks that say "Kiss Me," and for Hunter, I bought a Mr. Potato Head and Spud Buds set. Every kid needs a Mr. Potato Head, right? (Funnily enough, I don't think I ever did. Maybe that's why the moment I saw it, I was like, "Okay, Hunter has to have this.") I just hope they get them in time for Christmas. Mom says she probably won't have time to go to the post office to send them until Thursday when she's off. *sigh* This is what I get for waiting too long to pick something out.

Oh, yeah, and Mom bought some more DVDs. ^_^

The sucky thing, though, is that I didn't know that Numb3rs was going to be a new episode tonight, so by the time we finally got home, it was almost over. I only caught the last fifteen minutes. *pouts* I was willing to miss Ghost Whisperer, but if I knew Numb3rs was going to be new and we weren't going to make it home in time, I wouldn't have gone. Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to hope to catch it in reruns.
