Magicae est Potestas

by SomniumofLight

Run after run, the same constants are in place - the same politicians, the same prejudice, and no changes. Until Frisk and Chara decide to accept aid from yet another constant - an email sent by an anonymous supporter. But how much can one simple email really change? (Post-Pacifist Run, Post-The Last Guardian. Rated T to be safe. THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.)

21. Author's Note and Idea for Future Fic

Sorry guys, I know this isn't a new chapter, but I figured I should let you guys know that I don't anticipate being able to write any new chapters for a couple of weeks. I have a metric crap ton of homework I need to finish, and since said homework involves research for and the writing of a massive 7-10 page research paper... yeah, I won't have time to write. Don't worry, though, I'll start writing some new chapters as soon as that's done - I'll try not to leave you all on that little cliffhanger for too long.

Now that that's been said, I have another idea for a fanfiction that I want to run by you guys. I know I've already asked for people's opinions/interest in a Steven Universe/NiGHTS crossover and an Artemis Fowl/D. Gray-Man crossover... now I've got an idea for an Artemis Fowl/Starbound crossover! (If someone here doesn't know what Starbound is... it's a game that's basically Terraria, but in space with space exploration and an actual plot you can follow if you want. Just look it up on YouTube or Steam, I guess.)

So, basic premise of this idea - as Artemis, Holly, Qwan, and No. 1 are in the time-tunnel thing bringing Hybras and all the demons out of Limbo (book 5), something interferes with the process, and Artemis ends up as what me and my little sister have lovingly decided to call a quantum ghost. He's stuck half in, half out of the timestream, able to observe and to briefly materialize as a ghost-like apparition in places where time has been messed with or in places where history-making events are taking place, but unable to interact with it, and unable to be seen by anyone still living in normal time - and he cannot look back in time. He still observes things in chronological order. Which means that he's forced to watch as friends and family grow old and die, and the world marches on without him.

Fast forward several thousand years (yes several thousand), and a pair of scientists working for the Terrane Protectorate (an organization based on Earth that appears briefly in the Starbound game) are looking for approval to revamp some time-travel experiments that were being worked on a couple centuries previously - experiments that caused several of the scientists working on it to go all quantum ghost, thanks to previously unforeseen interference by silver. The lady in charge grants them permission, provided they can find a way to un-ghost the people affected by the experiments. They figure out a way to do so, pluck those scientists out of quantum-ghost limbo - and Artemis along with them, forcing him to adapt to a time where humans and aliens are working together in tandem, faster-than-light travel is possible along with other futuristic technology, and with catastrophic disaster looming on the horizon.

Now, I won't be working on any new fanfics until I've gotten through a lot more of Magicae est Potestas, or even finished it, but once I do start writing new fanfictions, would you guys be interested in this fanfic? If not, or if you prefer one of the other ideas previously mentioned, then please let me know!
