Mass Effect aside, most fiction we’ve seen revolves around the BETA war effort of the Muv Luv world. While certainly the most important part about it given failure on that front would effectively doom the human race, there are other parts of it that might be interesting to look at. For instance, we could follow a ‘Jack Reacher’ expy MP as he solves heinous military crimes that have been committed ‘for the greater good’, or a naïve American reporter who had been embedded with a frontline unit attempting to get his story out to the American mass media when he gets home. Just a thought anyway. Quote:

Like you noted, the problem about the FF.net section for Muv Luv isn’t size, but rather the variety of what’s in it. That makes fics like ‘Comet’, ‘Tropic Thunder’ and ‘Eishi of Zero’ all the more important. Quote:
As for crossovers, the Chief and Shepard have a potential to turn it into a curbstomp since the UNSC and HSA can bomb the BETA from above, but it can be done. It’ll definitely take more work to make it compelling. The Krito idea, that I can see being done. The Kirito and gang arrive in the ML universe thing might actually work if you use the whole ‘different game setting for SAO gimmick’. It is a death game after all, so you could easily have 10,000 game players stuck in a do or die battle against computer generated BETA with the only way out being to seize the Original Hive. Kabayaka wanted a world where his simulated life seems more real than reality, and the compelling world of ML heck of a lot more interesting than good ol’ Aincaid. It’ll probably take some work to make the whole gimmick to be a solid fic, but that’s one possibility for a serious crossover (on the other hand, you could somehow have AU versions of them in the ML world, but that’s a bit old). I still think ‘X-Com online’ (not a fic, just an idea I came up with) will have a higher casualty count when the players inevitably win though… |

Harro again. I'm aiming to dive deeper into editing/beta'ing so if someone needs a beta, throw me a PM. I do general proofreading, structure, character, plot, etc. to the best of my abilities. I aim to write professionally one day so it'll also help myself as well.
Speaking of which... I need to get back to writing Muvluv :x

Update.
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7112821/69/ I'm disappointed though. The part I was waiting for. The joint exercise doesn't happen in this chapter. |

Y'know, Yifei has her own cheerleader squad in her efforts to seduce Yuuya. What happens if Yui has a bunch of well meaning but ultimately counterproductive friends of her own? Nothing messes up a Jelly-dere's day like a bunch of well-meaning BFFs who constantly force her into situations she doesn't want to be in. And hell while we're at it, lets have Sadeck decide Yuuya is the perfect gene donor to create his ultimate ESPer with Cryska as the mother... ...did I just turn TE into Infinite Stratos? SOMEONE FUND THIS. I have a sneaking suspicion it will be like one of the more awesome Fate Stay Night Bad Ends. Yes, the world is doomed, and yes everything is going to go to heck, but it's going to be one amazing looking train wreck. The coup succeeding, unlikely that would be is considering that both the CIA and a certain RIG general probably have their own plots going in it on top of Shirogane's interference, would see Yuuhi crowned commander in chief of Imperial Japan against her own wishes. Considering the country just survived a civil war, there's no way she can abdicate since they need a strong leader. And the US is probably not too happy with the regime change either, since if I so recall, they expected to step in and save the day at the very last second, American Hero style. Hell for added trauma, you can have coup succeed over the dead bodies of the Hunter Battalion and a good portion of the 207th. Kid sister dead, illegally put in charge of whole country, international outrage, BETA at the gates… it is not a good day to be named Kobuin Yuuhi. Now the first question is, what's the first thing she's gonna do as commander and chief? Well it’s either the BETA get their asses kicked so fast they won’t even know what hit them, or they’ll be incredible shortages of 120mm shells worldwide. All depends on the writer I guess? |

I was told a while ago that I could put on any world building snippets for MLYRL I made on this thread. Well, this here is the first one.
Spoiler for ML:DYRL, VF-8 Crusader II:
The next one is going to be the Over Eagle that was briefly touched on in Try Again. Quote:
What the hell, let’s just take this idea, add some more harem comedy and the rule of funny and hit frappe. Sandeck is convinced Yuuya is the perfect gene donor for his super soldier project and is actively trying to get Cryska to seduce him. Yifei is takes Chinese waifu to a whole new level and will be trying to drag Yuuya to the altar any chance she gets. Natalie is the conflicted spy girl stereotype who has fallen head over heels with Yuuya and will find ‘redemption through the power of love’. Sharon is the desperate ex-girlfriend who has finally seen the light and wants Yuuya back in her life. Yui is the first girl who has to deal with her friends and family interfering with her love life. Yuuya’s only island of sanity in these hostile waters is Argos Flight, and even that starts sinking when little midget Tarisa (previously the person he’d mentally labeled as #1 bro and the only female he can possibly be safe around) decides she wants to get in his pants as well. And Orson will be filming the entire thing for posterity. Huzzah. Man, that would really turn TE into Infinite Stratos. It’s too bad I suck at rom com, or I really would write this just for the heck of it.. Last edited by sasahar17; 2013-03-10 at 05:22. Reason: Changed MORE stuff about the VF-8 |

And that just inspired me to put out something: Spoiler for Garuda Wings: Evaluation:
Uh... yeah. Quote:
....FUND IT. Though this is just me but I thought there was something going on between Tarisa and VG? Then again, I'm doubtful how much sanity there will be in Argos Flight, given that Tarisa now wants to get into his pants and VG will probably kick back with Vincent, and observe the lulz from behind a nice tall glass of beer. (Argos Bridge Bunnies optional.) But I think we should keep Sharon away from it all. From how she was portrayed in TE, I get the impression that their breakup was partially because Yuuya was such a jackass, and she's since then moved on. She's made her bed with Leon, and she's sleeping in it. Also, Stella fits as the older sister/team mom who gives advice to everyone that, on the whole, works out a LOT better than Yui's friends.

Someone shoot me, this is so wrong but I just can't stop. Quote:
BTW, I can see how it’s all going to end now. The seven or so contenders for Yuuya’s heart all have their respective plans crash into each other horribly, and nobody gets to have hot lovin with Top Gun. And just as they’re all dragging themselves back to base, defeated and downcast, they run into the A-01 Valkyries who are staring at open mouthed at this little café across the road. The defeated harem turns to look… “Jinguuji-sensei was seen eating with another man (guess which man)!” Dark horse victory for the win. |

However, all her adopted children misunderstand their intentions, and think he's trying to steal her away from them (hence Tasha being all tearful in canon), so they try and sabotage him. So while Yuuya and Latrova view each other as nothing more than surrogate parent and child, of sorts, Zhar's enmity towards him knows no bounds... Quote:

Yes, go with this end. XD

All Yuuya did was visit the Latrova once for relationship advice, and for that he forever earned the enmity of the step-children from hell. Well so we have an ending, but what about the middle? What set of the collision of plans? Personally I'll say to heck with the timeline and continuity and make it Valentines day, which each member of the harem trying to get Yuuya their homemade chocolates.... except this being a comedy there are some oddities. Some of the gift chocolates are not normal. Cryska's chocolates are laced with a brainwashing love potion courtesy of the USSR's R&D division (Cryska naturally feeds them to the wrong person and chaos ensures). Yifei's chocolates are curry flavored, and her taste testers know it's essentially weaponized curry in chocolate form. Not sure what the others will use, so that's up for suggestions. And then their plans to deliver the chocolates are outlandish as well. Kidnapping, use of the KGB, blackmail, inappropriate use of military resources... and of course while all this is going on at it, Yuuya's going about preparing for his date with Marimo like the clueless harem protagonist he is. Well, lets see some discussion. I want to see what kind of crazy plots we can come up with. |

Anyway, sasahar17 once asked for a fanfic of what would happen if the coup succeeded. After some thinking, here's my idea of that fanfic. Spoiler for Fanfic idea:
I'll try to continue in the next post.

Then again, if none of us is actually writing this (since we don't seem to have any real rom-com experts among the group currently discussing the idea) and we're just tossing ideas back and forth we may as well go hog wild. How 'bout Yamashiro and the rest of the members who initially don't think Yuuya is worthy of Yui end up falling for him themselves while trying to make his life hell? Let's rekindle some of that old academy rivalry! The Argos' bridge bunnies seem immune to the Bridges charm, but that's okay... they can complicated things by competing for the affection of an oblivious Yui. |

And then you've got the machine spirits in the hangar... the Type-00F being all a haughty ojousama who nontheless wonders what it's like to have that wild American ride her... the Shiranui being kuudere to Yuuya (or really, at this time, totally dere)...
...actually, reminds me of this amusing fanfiction: A Love with no Boundaries.
