PLOT BUNNY THAT WON'T DIE!
Okay, I've had this idea in my head for a few weeks and simply refuses to vacate the premises of my mind (what's left of it anyway)! I know I haven't done much on my Naruto story but I've had a serious road block in my mind for that (that and my muse is on a strike with the people from BA for some odd reason), so I apologise for that and I don't know when that'll be updated! But I digress!
I've been reading a lot of Digimon fics recently, specifically Season 3 (Tamers) and I've also been reading the Bleach Manga with a bit of the anime mixed in when for some bizarre reason, my mind decided to fuse the 2, leaving me with the following idea!
'When Takato passes out due to Growlmon being nearly killed my Mihiramon, he meets more than just his partner in that clock mindscape! Turns out, he technically…died, and had not fully passed on since his connection to Growlmon kept him anchored to the real world. So he meets another person in what is actually HIS mindscape, or rather, another part of his soul. Now, armed with the power of a Zanpaktou, he must help the tamers defeat the 12 Devas and the strange masked creatures that seem to be assisting them!'
As I said, this is a mix of Bleach and Digimon Tamers and I have a few ideas of what I want to happen, though I would enjoy input from other fanfic readers and authors here!
I mean, should the others find out about his powers before or after they get to the Digital World?
Should it be an average crossover with others from the Bleach Universe training him, or should it be a minor crossover, where he is trained exclusively by his Zanpaktou spirit?
Should his Zanpaktou be the same as 1 from the Bleach manga (I'd personally go for either Zangetsu (my personal favourite!) or maybe another captains, not sure whose though), or should I give him an original Zanpaktou based on his Mega form (I'm leaning more towards this at the current time of typing this, but it depends on what you guys wanna see!)
I'm also tempted to try and allow Gallantmon to use this weapon as well, meaning Guilmon would get to meet the Zanpaktou spirit AND use it.
Hell, I'm even tempted to see if, somehow, the other core tamers (Henry and Rika) could develop Zanpaktous.
As for the Hollows I mentioned in the above summary, I'm thinking of linking them to Zhuqiaomon using them to help kill the humans and will be recurring until they destroy the gate the Hueco Mundo (before or when they meet Zhuqiaomon, not sure yet but let me know what you think would be good). Not sure whether it would be worth bringing in any of the Arrancar though (at least, not any of the Top 5 Espada, that idea is still up in the air!).
Don't know if I'll be including any pairings or not either. If I do, it'll more than likely be Rukato. This, though, actually depends on how strong the crossover is, depending on what you guys give me. Not entirely sure how strong to rate it either, but at minimum this fic will be rated at T.
I'll stay fairly close to canon as well with training and other stuff thrown in and I may or may not have a couple of the Shinigami turn up in the digital world due to the hollows, not sure yet!
To be honest, these are just a few of the things I've been mulling over and depending on the messages and feedback I get here, the story will definitely be interesting to work on. I wouldn't turn down anyone who wants to help out writing or being a Beta Reader for me either, since I am pretty much a Noob when it comes to writing fanfics, but I digress.
Again, this is an idea that, as I said, kept returning to me like a belch from a bad onion, not matter how hard I try, but now that I've written this down, I'm now thinking that this could be interesting. I'll just have to go back and re-watch most of Digimon Tamers from the start of the Devas Arc to most likely the end of the series, which'll be quite fun when I think about it!
So please, leave me comments or send me messages, whichever you guys wanna do and let me know what you think. I'll then post whether or not I'll be doing this story and when you might be able to expect the first chapter. I won't draft anything up until I get a few suggestions so I can backlog chapters so that I have chapters to upload of a period of time based on the feedback you guys give me.
If all goes well and I get the Kind of feedback that I need, I'll hopefully get something posted by early to mid August. If and when I post this, I'll update this page with another chapter giving you guys the actual title of the fic, which again if you guys have any ideas for that, feel free to throw 'em my way.
I'll also add some polls after a while depending on what I get and to see what you like out of what I receive.
Hope to hear from you guys soon. Until then, Ja Ne!
