So like, one day at the end of July, I was up until four in the morning and I was finally going to sleep. My sister was sitting across the room on her laptop doing some shit and we were talking as I was sort of dozing off.
I don't even remember what we were talking about, but it had to have been something related to My Little Pony and Transformers being very, very similar. That's a totally different rant though, but I'll write it another time.
I decided to be an idiot and say something like, "Hurr hurr, I could totally write a MLP-TF crossover. Where the ponies would be the bad guys."
I am stupid sometimes.
Of course, Bri was like "DO IT FAGGOT" so I decided that I actually would.
Thus I have a story broken into ten parts that is currently nearing 33 pages, where I've somehow horribly twisted the G1 My Little Pony universe into a horrible, horrible place. I feel like I kill a baby pony every time I write a word in that story.
It's full of hidden inside jokes, subtle hints at gay alien robots, Firefly being a total bitch, lasers and winking, Optimus being a badass, and various other things I decided to throw in there. It's mainly the G1 of both series, but I'm not going to say anything because I don't want to give too much away before it is totally finished. I'm not letting anyone read it until it's done.
Perceptor pulls a Bri, Mimic and Hound are bestest friends, Sundance is totally crazy, Half-Note and Soundwave are pimps, Heart-Throb is fabulous, Springer gets super awesome near the end along with Thundercracker. Acid Storm will play a minor part with the Rainmakers and Merriweather, and a multitude of people will generally just kick total ass, especially in the last part- Bright Eyes, Cliffjumper, Powerglide, Posey, Blitzwing, Lickety Split. I don't want to throw in too many characters that will make people scratch their heads in confusion and try to remember "...Who was that one, again?", so I'm trying to stick with the "memorable ones" so to speak. I want to have like, no sense of who died in the two actual series or what happened to them, so it'll just be one huge clusterfuck of everything that can make the story cooler thrown together in this giant fucking battle. With what I've done to these poor ponies, it actually makes for a pretty damn good fight.
Flurry and Reflector will be creeper arch-rivals. Blurr will face off against Speedy.
Mark my words when I say I will finish this, and it will be amazing. Undoubtedly, this crossover has been written before, as these are two of the '80s biggest childrens franchises, but I doubt they've ever been written like this.
...And I still don't know what the title is.
