    Tyrion is a septon, Jon was loved by Catletyn because it reminds her of the one time Ned did the right thing (he usually leaves his bastards hanging), Jeofrey is wise beyond his years.

    "Kakarot wakes up and, since there isn't an elderly saint along the lines of Son Gohan anywhere in Westeros, he kills everyone on the planet, as instructed by the voice in his pod. Then Frieza shows up and bitchslaps him for being an uppity monkey. The end."

    Not really seeing how else that story goes, if you're sticking with the whole Saiyan thing.

    I was thinking of the possibility of a FSN/Gurren Lagann crossover where Simon is summoned. I was thinking of having him summoned as Shirous servant, working with the angle that Shiruos wish to save everyone resonated with Simon actually saving everyone by defeating the Anti-Spirals.

    Then i was wondering how I'd work his stats and noble phantasms. It's have to be at most Gurren Lagann or just Lagann on it's own and maybe The Core Drill.
    He'd be summoned as a rider but most of his stats would be pretty abysmal apart from Mana imo. For that he'd either have something ridiculous like A++ or EX.

    I'm up at 2 a.m. in the night because I was just struck by the greatest idea for a Naruto crossover, ever. Naruto and...Assassin's Creed.

    In Naruto, Kaguya eats a fruit from a sacred tree, which gives her unimaginable power that gets passed on to her sons. Later, humanity as a whole are taught the rudiments of chakra by Hagoromo.

    In December 2012, Assassin's Creed-verse, the solar flare is stopped by the protagonist Desmond's sacrifice. However, the next generation of children born have strange mutations, causing great chaos and confusion worldwide. Meanwhile, Juno is waging her own private war against humanity. Assassin forces worldwide are crumbling.

    In Japan, a scientist named Kaguya comes across a Piece of Eden, the key apple. An apple that contains the key to every bit of technology and advancements possessed by Those Who Came Before, the key to access one large data tree (not sure if I used that correctly, I'm not that highly aware of software).

    She manages to unlock it with the help of her husband, who is, incidentally, from Adam's line of hybrids. He dies in the process, beginning her spiral into madness. The line also explains the extreme potency of the chakra of the sage's line, and the evolution of the doujoutsu...a natural evolution of eagle vision.

    It's just coming out at this point, I didn't even think of the former while I was typing this. It fits, eerily.

    Centuries later, Naruto starts having strange dreams. Experiences from a long dead world start bleeding into his daily life, and suddenly the Kyuubi becomes the least of his troubles. Or maybe not the most pertinent one.

    This is just the tip of the iceberg. I reiterate, it's late in the night and I'm really groggy. With a brain rush. But it is a rather good mix. It's basically the same principle of Assassin's Creed - mythology turned into science.

    PS - Akatsuki have special rings. The Templars do too. This is great. If there were a fanfiction copyright, I'd apply for it. It's a shame I don't have time to write now, because otherwise I'd be on it like white on rice.

    Wasn't Goku changed because of being dropped on his as a baby in addition to Gohan being a good guy.

    Basically. What happened is that Goku started off hyper-destructive thanks to brainwashing in the pod, but Gohan was able to contain him somehow, up until he accidentally dropped Goku on his head. The hit gave him a very minor case of serious brain damage, causing him to forget the pod's programming, and Gohan took over from there.

    Doesn't really matter. Goku can't control himself in Great Ape form. He kills everything near him whether he's dropped on his head or not. If anyone survives his rampage and connects the dots then they murder him when he changes back(if they can). Like he said elderly saints like that don't exist in Westeros so they won't try to make him fear the full moon to spare killing him.

    Maybe infant Goku's Great Ape. Odds are that once he hits 10 or so he's going to be the doom.

    Not much of a plot, but in my opinion an interesting idea: a Naruto/Bakemonogatari crossover.

    T7 doesn't get Kakashi as sensei but Oshino Meme who teaches them that not every danger can be seen, and that sometimes our fears and beliefs can conjure nightmares far more potent and dangerous than any nukenin.

    In that vein, I'm also playing with the idea of connecting Hachikuji with Tsunade, Kanbaru with Sarutobi, Hanekawa with Yugito/Yugao, and Sengoku with Orochimaru.

    I'm only halfway through Monogatari 2nd season, but that idea's been bouncing between my neurons for some time now.

    Hmm, well I have had a N/Monogatari idea running around my head myself. Sort of.

    More specifically I had an idea for a three-part story (three stories at once, not one in three parts), each following one of the three major parts of what Naruto is, to the exclusion of the others: Naruto the Shinobi, Naruto the Jinchuriki, and Naruto the Sage.

    In Naruto the Shinobi, he would not be a Jinchuriki. He would have quite a decent amount of chakra from his Uzumaki heritage (which would play a significant part in this story) and from gestating in the womb of a Kyuubi Jinchuriki, but not canon levels. A few other changes would be made--Neji was the one to try to stop Hanabi's kidnapping, was killed in the process; Naruto is raised in Tora House*, gaining more access to training; Lee takes an extra year to become Genin; Gai is Naruto's sensei. This story would follow Naruto on his way to become Hokage more than anything else.

    In Naruto the Jinchuriki, he is one of the walking natural disasters/nuclear deterrents known as Jinchuriki. Almost everything about these creations from canon is turned up to 11; these are people who do change the battlefield just by being near it; even full-grown Jonin are scared shitless of these creatures. Each Bijuu would be incredibly powerful, with it's own special abilities (Shukaku has control over Wind and Sand, Nibi has traditional Nekomata necromantic powers, etc.) with Kyuubi's power being simply POWER--regeneration, wind pressure blasts from extreme strength, super speed, the Tailed Beast Ball is his attack specifically. To be honest, beyond the concept and a few scenes I don't really have a plot for this one.

    In Naruto the Sage (the relevant Monogatari bit), Naruto is not a shinobi or Jinchuriki, but merely a sage. He is the first human in history to achieve Sage mode (or at least the beginning steps) entire by himself. As he learns SM, he becomes more and more aware of the spirits and youkai around him. The constant war and strife and pain inherent in the Ninja World has been causing unrest in the-to borrow a term from Monogatari-Nightworld, which spills back into the Ninja World... So as a way to end all strife and achieve peace, Naruto becomes a wandering teacher and ambassador between the peoples and spirits. As neither a ninja nor a Jinchuriki but a civilian, Naruto is free to leave. This would mostly be a series of serials during his journeys that eventually tie together as Naruto ends the 'cycle of hatred' and achieves world peace. [Note: this idea could also substitute Jiraiya for Naruto and still work]

    ------
    *Tora House: An idea that's been bouncing around in my head for a while. Back in the early history of the village, the last old man of a dead clan decided to pass on his knowledge so that his clan's teachings would not die out completely. He took a number of clan-less and orphaned children under his wing to help them along the path to shinobi. After he passed on, a number of the children grew up and took on his teachings, and passed on those teachings to new children. Fast forward a number of years, and you have Tora House (named in honor of the founder). Effectively an 'orphanage' for shinobi hopefuls and clanless shinobi, it is staffed by former Tora alumni and retired shinobi who help out younger shinobi, offsetting the disadvantage of being clan-less. There is a great camaraderie among members of Tora House, with the air of 'It does not matter who you were before you came here, once you join Tora House you are our brothers and sisters'.

    I'll bring this up now since you mentioned an idea for a technique that I've had for a long time.

    After learning about sage mode and the third type of energy I wondered if spiritual places like Heaven or Hell had natural energy in it, which made me instantly think of the term "supernatural". I played around with the term "supernatural energy" for a while, as an antonym to natural energy. After that I decided to find a suitable antonym for a sage; I went through a few names but eventually I stumbled across shaman. After that I was pretty convinced that Kishi would introduce something like this, but he never did. I still thought the concept was a good idea though.

    So if you need any ideas for that story I think a more proper term would be Shaman, so you could come up with a new skillset, instead of just having sage mode with one new ability.

    I came across this today and thought I'd give it a read. I like the story idea, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. Mostly it's the GTA elements in it of 'oh hey, just outrun those cops and we get away' or just randomly killing people, along with Ruby's complete apathy to it.

    So I was thinking how I would write Team RWBY as part of an organised crime syndicate like in this story, but make the characters actually feel human. Mostly I wanted to make it that Yang and Ruby were forced into crime by circumstance and are trying to make the best of it so they try to stay away from the nastier aspects of it like sex trafficking and slaving. Though sometimes they can't avoid it.

    The world would be the GTA world toned down a bit; you won't be able to walking into a gunstore and buy a machine gun let alone with a criminal record, getting away from the cops doesn't mean laying low for a few days after seeing your face etc. A number of RWBY characters and organisations would be brought over from RWBY and modified. Also faunus would be brought over.

    The Schnee Dust Company (as they're known on the streets, really they would be something that doesn't hint to drugs) based in San Andreas for example would be one of the most prolific drug importers in the US while also dabbling in extortion, human trafficking, murder, racketeering etc. They would also have a large legitimate side to them to give credibility and allow them to have power everywhere. They use mostly faunus as drug couriers and as sex traffic. They have a very traditional mafia-like structure.

    The White Fang based in San Andreas with sects all over the country started out as a faunus street-gang and became very prolific, having sects in most major US cities. Eventually, with the SDCs notoriety and abuse of faunus it became more political and inclined towards destroying the SDC where it was redesignated a terrorist organisation. It still remembers its crime roots though.

    Roman Torchwicks gang based in Liberty City is a competitor to RWBY's gang. Not much really changes about them. Cinder and her people appear to be mercenaries.

    Beacon is a 'Private Military Contractor' based in Liberty City. It sounds like a good analogue to Hunters. Yang and Ruby's mothers, father and uncle all worked for Beacon and Ozpin at one point. Ruby's mother was killed working for them, their father was arrested for arms dealing working for them and is serving a long sentence in prison, Uncle Qrow is overseas unable to return to the US due to a warrant for his arrest for arms dealing while Raven/Yang's mother (I assume they are one and the same) appears to be working for the White Fang now. Beacon's side business State Side is selling illegal firearms.

    Before the story begins:
    -Yang's mother, Ruby's mother, their father, Qrow, Ozpin and several others are in the military together. When they get out Ozpin forms the Beacon PMC company and employs them all.
    -Yang's mother and father have her, Yang's mother leaves not long after.
    -Ruby is born two years later.
    -Ruby's mother dies doing something for Beacon in a far off country, Yang finds out that Ruby's mother was not her biological mother.
    Ruby and Yang are taught many things by their father and Qrow including shooting. Qrow discovers Ruby is a natural shot and teaches her long distance shooting. Ruby enjoys shooting immensely.
    -When Ruby is 13 and Yang is 15 their father and Qrow are doing a gun smuggling job for Beacon. Their father is caught and arrested before being given a long sentence (30+ years), Qrow manages to get out of the country but can never return due to fear of arrest.
    -Yang and Ruby end up in the foster system in San Andreas (California). Qrow tries to send them money to support them but he's a wanted fugitive and is unable to contact them.
    -At 14/16 after being told they would be separated (apparently this is common in the foster system), Ruby and Yang run away and end up on the streets.
    -Ruby and Yang, rather than turn to prostitution, turn to car theft to make some money. They are reasonably successful at this but one day they get spotted by the cops during a theft. Yang decides to split up and try divert the cops away from her little sister, this fails and Ruby is caught. Found guilty, Ruby gets a light sentence of only a few months because she's not a faunus, not black, before her father died she did well in school, and her naturally innocent appearance. Despite the light sentence, she still has a felony conviction attached to her name.
    -When Ruby gets out and runs away from the foster sytem she finds Yang is now stealing car as part of a gang. Ruby joins up with them and resumes stealing cars.
    -Now 16/18, Yang gets arrest for car theft. The gang leader is a sleezy bastard and has a thing for Yang, on top of that she's his best thief. Deciding that having her owe her is a good way to get in her pants, the boss pays for a somewhat competent lawyer to try and get her off. Yang gets off the charges due to some error.
    -Meanwhile, the Boss sees Ruby as an annoying skintag of some sort and in the way of bedding Yang, while he also is having troubles with an opposing gang. Seeing a win/win scenario in his future he tells Ruby that she owes him for paying for Yang's lawyer and that he wants her to repaying him by killing the opposing gang's leader. With a few well placed threats and a silver tongue (i.e. he tells her how evil the guy is) Ruby agrees to kill him. The Boss expects ruby to either get arrested trying, or kill the man and get arrested for his murder - either is good for him. Instead, Ruby uses one of the rifles in the collection she had built up with her cut of the pay despite being a felon and under-age, and shoots the man from a distance before dumping the rifle in a river. The police can't conclusively link her to the murder but they do find her collection of weapons. Charged with felon possession of a firearm, she tries to pass off the crime as the guns not belonging to her. Her apparent naivety and innocence combined with this argument gets her a relatively short sentence of 14 months.
    -Blake who was raised by the White Fang is ordered to do something horrendous. She quits in protest.
    -Because White Rose should bloody well be canon, Mafia Princess with a gun, Weiss Schnee is discovered by her unpleasant and conservative parents to be a lesbian. He parents order her to drop 'that nonsense' or be disowned. Weiss, who is now and adult, instead empties the considerable spending account she has and leaves for Liberty City to set up her own little criminal empire. Her parents are ticked off but decide to leave her be as the north-west isn't an area they have much dealings in.
    -When Yang is found not guilty only to find her sister is now in prison she goes looking for answers. When she discovers her boss played a part in it she kills him and manages to get away with the crime. Her former boss however had a small number of high friends so she ends up with a bounty on her head. Deciding a relocation is in order she decides to head to the other side of the country to Liberty City (NYC) and meets Blake along the way.
    -Yang and Blake stick it out together and come across Weiss who is setting up shop and needs a few able hands. Within a year they have a core group of seven people (Weiss, Yang, Blake and JNPR), about 50 mooks of varying competency, a small brothel, a strip bar and a few clubs. Their main income is mid-level drug dealing supplying drugs to the sellers on the streets and the occasional high level theft (cash vans, banks etc) along with some income from the brothel, bars and clubs.
    -During this year Yang finds out Blake is a faunus and keeps Blake's secret - Weiss, though not as racist as her father, still doesn't like faunus all that much. Roman's crew is pissed because Weiss stole a good chunk of their profits. The SDC and the White Fang also begin to take up roots in Liberty City.
    -The story begins, as do most GTA stories with the main character either getting out of prison or flying in from another city. Ruby does both, after being released, Yang pays for a plane ticket to Liberty City for her and ends up as part of Weiss' gang (I really need name for it).

    From here I would include a number of elements from both GTA and RWBY. From GTA of course is the life of crime, but at the same time I would have Ruby and Yang trying to stay away from the the really nasty stuff with Yang in particular trying and failing to shield yang from it. From RWBY there would be the interactions between characters and that link between Ozpin and Ruby.

    I have no idea exactly where to take it and once again I have to wonder if RWBY is still RWBY without RWBY's breed of fight scenes but I wanted to get this refinement of 'Grand Theft RWBY' out there.

    A hyper-realistic Minecraft Universe that doesn't have blocky game-mechanics, though still contains magic and unusual creatures.

    For example, the redstone dust still gives infinite energy as in the game, but creating a sword is a little more complicated than simply putting two ingots and a stick on a table.

    A timeline of said universe:

    - A thousand years before the Ancient Pigmen rise, the Ender Dragon enslaves a race of dimension-travelling humans and turns them into the Endermen.

    - Ancient Pigman Civilization begins and grows to rule most of the known Overworld.

    - Ancient Pigmen discover the Nether dimension and colonize it.

    - Ancient Pigmen begin experimenting with a new type of a portal to discover more dimensions.

    - Portal to The End opened.

    - Enderman Invasion after Accidental Summoning.

    - Zombie Virus invented to battle Endermen, Endermen turn out immune.

    - Creepers bio-engineered by Ancient Pigmen to combat Endermen. Not as successful as they planned.

    - Ancient Pigman Civilization destroyed.

    - Remaining Ancient Pigmen retreat into the Nether and destroy all portals.

    - Slowly, Ancient Pigmen in the Nether die off due to their small numbers, lack of resources and the zombie plague.

    - One Ancient Pigman manages to escape the Nether back into the world and infects a single human.

    - The Zombie Plague spreads among the humans in the Overworld.

    - Rise of the Humans. The humans united by a common zombie threat form their first communities/villages.

    - Humans discover the use and properties of redstone and gunpowder, leading to an industrial revolution. Iron Golems are invented.

    - The Hero from Earth arrives in the Overworld.

    What if Kiritsugu summoned a hero and villain who shared his mindset? A villain turned hero turned monster, who saved and destroyed the world? Who sacrificed everything, even her humanity, to stop the apocalypse?

    Taylor Hebert - Caster. Who, due to the eventual distortion of her legend, gains abilities beyond what she possessed in life. Infusing controlled insects with Prana to make them E rank beasts, except in the thousands. Summoning Atlas, as a possible Noble Phantasm.

    The Shards themselves assert their own reality on the world, akin to a Reality Marble (?). So, due to her legend of controlling the bodies of the army that saved humanity, she would be able to seize control of bodies and "infuse" them with shards, turning them into temporary Parahumans.

    Probably has some sort of Mad Enhancement and Mental Pollution. Battle Continuation, given the kind of crap she fought through. Mind of the Eye, Charisma, and Innocent Monster, maybe.

    Perhaps some form of ultimate expression of the Administrator shard, becoming the Aristotle of that world, though that seems awfully overpowered.

    She's shit on the whole of Worm, what's the difference? Just an idle plot bunny, is all. Though, as Caster, she'll be given certain rank ups and skills not present in her original reality. Hell, Caster in F/Z was even worse, but still made a decent showing of himself.
