The Cross-Brain tells the main story of Jeremiah Cross and Soundbite and their travels with the Straw Hat Pirates. Here, however, is what the talented fans of This Bites! have created for "what else"s, "what if"s, and "what the ****"s.

All Deacon Lex had wanted in life was a loving wife and maybe a pet. He would happily serve the gods in peace. Imagine his surprise when he is chosen as Prophet and sent on a mission to ancient Lordran. With a knight of Astora at his side, will he save the world - or will he settle for being a witch's plaything?

When a sick child asks to meet a villain (instead of a celebrity or superhero like with most wishes), someone's got to have the guts to track these wanted individuals down. It's not as easy as one would think. And what's there to worry about: they're all big softies anyways... right?

Jaune had always wanted to go to a school to learn to battle the creatures of Grimm. But as a boy with no huntsmen training, no huntsmen knowledge, and no huntsmen transcripts, he had absolutely no chance of getting into a school like that legally. After scouring the darkest corners of the CCTNet, he finally found a lead. A place called Grimm Academy. Cover art by RKS-Kogiro.

Sea Kings, sea-sickness, sunburns, a 95% genocidal Navy and more than a million and one other assorted ways to die. It's official: Being inserted into an anime sucks ass... Buuut I guess it could be worse. I mean, look on the bright side: At least I'm sailing with the future king of the pirates. (Self-Insert)

Remnant never knew what true horror was until demons more terrifying than the Grimm arrived, seeking to conquer a world they think belongs to them. Nor the limits a warrior stripped of his humanity would push himself, and others, to exterminate the Slaves of Doom and their mortal allies. His path of perpetual torment continues and this time he will no longer be walking it alone...

Beacon Academy was already a strange place to begin with, but with the trickster of the Joestar bloodline now attending the school, Team RWBY and Team JNPR's next four years here are now guaranteed to be truly bizarre. Rated T for language and the usual amount of blood you'll find in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Image by Chappy-chan.

New summary: In a world where the nail was found and discarded, Shinji Ikari and a different NERV stand alone against the ANGELS.

In the wastelands of Western America, a man known as the "Courier" has, unfortunately, become a sort of legend among Wastelanders. But he is flung far from the Mojave to a great, new world populated by their own legends. Those who have left a legacy, or are trying to, with a bygone organization called "Overwatch". The world could always use more heroes... If he even fits the bill.

She was a failure of a Mage, unable to cast even the simplest of spells. He was an Undead, a monster used as a pawn in battle he could never understand. They had nothing in common, and yet fate saw it fit to bind the two souls together.

He had been captured; Alex Mercer knew that much was obvious. But if that was the case, why had his captors just left him there without security? How had he ended up in a bunker buried in some kind of giant desert? Where was everyone? And when the hell did bottlecaps become currency?

Uchiha Satsuki, avenger, doesn't love anything, or anyone. Not revenge, not tomatoes, and definitely – definitely! – not Uzumaki Naruto. But when she winds up on a genin team with him, she realises there's more to his smile than teeth and sunshine. Female!Sasuke

Adam Jensen finds himself in a time only dreamed of in vids, humanity is now part of a great galactic community that fears synthetics, and he struggles to find his place within it. Note: Primarily a DX/ME crossover, with elements borrowed and integrated from other Square Enix franchises.

No one likes self-inserts. Never knew why. So imagine my surprise when I die and am given the chance to continue living with a new life on Remnant. And with what I know of what's to come, should I try to stop it? CAN I stop it? Or am I in over my head? Well...there's only one way to find out. Time to see what all the fuss is about. (SI/OC) (Colt/?)

An spinoff/alt version of Beyond the Outer Gates Lies... by gabriel blessing. Originally written to show how Reya might join Harry's harem, though now has grown beyond that, and further from the original (maybe? probably?)

Time travel, based on the Anime. So, the world ended. That's bad news. Who best to get to fix it? Well, there is this guy with a track record in world saving... Not entirely serious. T rating may be overdoing it.

Kneeling at the executioner's block, about to be killed by his own people for the crime of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, Marius was starting to question his fate. This viewpoint was really not helped when the first Dragon seen in Tamriel in eons came down and almost burned him. Slow silly story with terribly-executed Dovahkiin/Harem, finally completed.

It was over. The Flame was extinguished, putting an end to the endless cycle of death and rebirth. But as the Firekeeper said, "One day, tiny flames will dance across the darkness. Like embers, linked by lords past." With a final sigh, the Ashen One stood and sank his blade into the ground, forever her watcher as darkness settled. "Ashen One, hearest thou my voice, still?"

Every family has its odd member, the one that doesn't fit. Jaune was just that, the black sheep. He had always wanted to be the hero, to be a Huntsman. But when your name is Jaune Salem Arc - Prince of the Grimm - and your mother is understandably against the idea, what is a young man to do? Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

On that day in 1999, we discovered something underneath Antarctica: a great white sphere, with wonders and technology beyond our understanding.

[An Evangelion/Destiny fusion] [COMPLETE]

Starting out on a journey? Couldn't afford a normal pokédex? Then this is for you. This is your guide to the world of pokémon for now. Lucky you. Rated M for graphic language, among other things. [Thanks a lot for 100 chapters, guys!]

Yu Narukami is not a good guy. He's rude, egotistical, perverted, and enjoys lying to others. The stoic hero bit? A mask he wears. He's a bad guy who thinks he deserves more than he's earned. Then he met Naoto... *A novelization of the game, starting from when Naoto appears, with a twist. Yu is a jerk who needs to grow and mature into the hero he once pretended to be.

(Revising V1) (Updated chapters: 12-17)

Remnant. The word left a bad taste in my mouth even now, so many years after I'd woken to find myself in this living nightmare. The strong survived and the weak perished, trampled underfoot by those with the willpower to do what was necessary. My goal, then, was simple: to survive, regardless of the cost. Realistic character progression. Abandoned.

This series may be over, though you can still read the rewritten version of this story under its new name. "RWBY: New World Hope" I hope to see you all there for this new redux of a familiar story with a familiar character.

According to Brimnir's Law of Opposition any magic formed from opposing elements is strengthened by the conflict between them. Thus, it has been tradition since time immemorial for the students of the Academy to perform the Summoning Ritual in pairs. Perhaps the Void has a sense of humour; for when the dust clears on the last joint summoning there stands a boy... and a dwarf.

Jaune Arc had always wanted to be a huntsman like his father. He wanted to be a hero. But as they saying goes, you can't always get what you want. Sometimes life doesn't work out the way you planned it. Sometimes you don't realize that it was all for the best, and that there's more than one way to be a hero. Cover art by TabletKnight.

A mystery which may teach the former genius jockey that bonds can make the most broken bird fly again...

Azrael has let the fires fade, and now he finds himself in a new world, with a strangely familiar white-haired girl. But there are forces at work in Remnant, forces Azrael is all to familiar with. Rated M for violence, and probably language. Let me know what you guys think.

Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Monster Girls But Not in That Way You Weirdo. Yeah, it's a self insert fic. No, he's not sleeping with the cast. That and the really long title is probably the most accurate summary of this thing that you'll get.

After a freak accident during the Breach, Blake finds herself facing the impossible: her semblance has been altered into something calling itself The Gamer. With levels, quests and bosses to master, she has little recourse but to enlist the aid of the school's resident gaming expert, Jaune Arc. Will Blake be able to take on fearsome odds and the mantle of The Gamer Girl?

In the ruined crater that once held the Forever Fall, forces beyond Remnant's comprehension are stirring.

What would you do to protect your dog?

He didn't know the first thing about teaching, Hell, he didn't even know the first thing about fighting! A shame then, that his forged documents painted the picture of an accomplished and skilled warrior. Now he's trapped teaching students his own age how to be hunters, when he doesn't even know himself!

The young hunter is thrown into a different world of huntsmen and huntresses to warn them, to save them.

Desperate times have always called for desperate measures. But do the ends truly justify the means? How much blood are you willing to spill in order to ensure the survival of the human race? The survival of your friends, of your family. For you to simply survive? The answer? As much blood as it takes. (Slow burn RubyxOC)

Is it fanfiction? Is it a novelization? Is it just the disconnected and incoherent ramblings of a man who has finally taken leave of his senses? Yes. This is my attempt at telling a story of New Vegas, but with my own twist, with my character Sheason as The Courier. It's not really "the" story of New Vegas, but it uses the game's plot extensively.

Months after the notorious Courier Six secured New California's second victory at Hoover Dam, he is abducted and Transportalpondered to the planet Remnant.

RWBY and JNPR are bored. This is bad. So they're going to play Cards Against Remnant. What's the worst that could happen? Rated M because of Cards Against Humanity.

As the Young Hunter's new ward, Chisa finds herself facing a new world from her home in the Hunter's Workshop. With it comes both a strangeness and delight as her life continues onward with her strange guardian. {Side Stories for The Longest Hunt}

Short bits of randomness from Coeur Al'Aran's story "Professor Arc," which has Jaune as a professor of Beacon Academy. Non-canon to that story, of course, but on the plus side, this story is recommended by four out of five doctors as a good source of your daily intake of craziness.

His plans to insert himself within the guts of the Ministry of Magic have been highly successful, his apprentices are proving to be both talented and intuitive, and his efforts to consolidate his position within the mundane world are proceeding nicely. But as he knows all to well, all plans disintegrate on contact with reality...and what is English Heritage anyway?

Still doesn't make it any easier to make rent on time though...

Just live through the nightmare...and hope to wake up to a better day.

Ranma gets booted out of Furinkan after dealing with Saffron, and ends up on the bus to a new school called Youkai Academy, meeting a rather timid guy named Tsukune on the way. At least this place can't be worse than Furinkan, right?

All Origins may be true, but that doesn't mean it'll be easy to take out that pesky archdemon. Between a xenophobic Dalish, a reformed playboy, a mage prodigy with a bad temper, and others, getting through the Blight without strangling one another (or Alistair, for that matter) will be hard enough.

A Tvtropes website/Haruhi crossover. Kyon with a beam saber. Haruhi aware of her powers. An unsubtle harem plot. Did I mention the Higurashi crossover? Now say it with a straight face - I dare you. Now with site-compatible formatting!

The Wizarding World is devastated when Harry Potter disappears from his relatives' house in mysterious circumstances during the summer after his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Commander Shepard. Hero of the Skyllian Blitz. First human Spectre. Potential savior of humanity and the known galaxy. Pity no one asked him what HE thought of all this.
