Story idea for anyone who wants it. · 3:02pm Nov 27th, 2014
For those of you who wonder why I don't drink (and my characters weird out Discord in every story), I came up with this stone cold sober. I'm not going to write it, but it's already metastasizing into a Harry Potter/Dresden Chronicle crossover with MLP/SM, so I'll leave it here.
The reason the local Twilight Sparkle wasn't encountered by the 'Equestria Girl'ed Twilight was she was off saving the world. As Sailor Moon. Her cat advisor is Luna, yes that Luna, who isn't happy about being a cat. Venus is teamed up with a white cat (Celestia), who is really unhappy about being a boy cat. Spike and Owlicious are Sailor Mars' ravens. The rest of the Mane 6 and several background ponies are the rest of the Senshi, except they play the senshi attitudes to cover their real identities. Rainbow Dash is Saturn, Fluttershy is Tuxedo Mask, Rarity is Mercury, Derpy is Pluto, etc.
When they find out about Equestria and their counterparts, they travel there to get their teammates 'cured' of being animals, and have adventures there against Dresdenverse and Potterverse invaders. Voldemort, meet the Elements of Harmony and the Moon Crystal.
...Wat?
Too much nutmeg in the pecan pie?
Have you been using linseed furniture polish as deodorant?
Off the top of my head, you're the only author I can think of who can cross over that many fandoms, and not end up with a mess.
Most authors who attempt it are just throwing everything at a wall, and the resulting literary chimera has none of the charm of its individual parts.
2619245 Just put the turkey in, the pie is later. Not pecan.
2619268 Hydrazine works better.
2619293 I could, but I'd like to finish one of the stories I started first.
I would read this story so hard my eyeballs would punch thru the computer screen.
2619403 That's okay with me. Only saw bits of the Harry Potter movies with younger family members, only vaguely recall Sailor Moon cartoons from maybe 20 years ago, and not even sure what Dresden Chronicle is.
Dark Lords and Ring Lords is exactly my speed.
2619403 What, no monohydrazine?
(Anyone who gets the reference - aside from Dan - wins a free Internet. :D )
2626096 UDMH actually, but only a connoisseur would be able to tell the difference.
2626434 Heh. Do you remember the show, perchance? I've always thought it was one of Andy Griffith's funnier series.
2626434 What does UDMH stand for?
In Sig Alert, what does Smaug sound like as a baby dragon?
2627715 ASK.com is your friend.
2627718 He doesn't sound like anything, you have to read him. Otherwise he would sound like Richard Boone.
2626437 Sort of.
I'd totally roll with this, but I am not sufficiently familiar with the Dresden Files 'verse.
>Derpy is Sailor Pluto
...so, she has one eye on the present, and the other on the past? That would explain some things, I suppose. We haven't seen her in the show with any Hounds of Tindalos, though.
>to get their teammates 'cured' of being animals
Ponies are animals, as are humans. Or are they all really prokaryotes?

That would also explain some things, I suppose.
Alternately, perhaps the marshmallow ponies really are made from marshmallows.
2721634 It certainly explains lots of Pinkie's eating behavior.
You know what? I'm going to get up on the Dresden 'verse so I can roll with this.
3891291 Good luck.
3892948 That wasn't ominous at all.
In all seriousness, thanks.
3892952 That wasn't ominous gOOd lUcK That's ominous.
3893296 No, that was odd...and so very, very you, Dan.
