Naruto Headcannon/Prompt

Doctor Who Headcannon

I have this idea about Susan and why the Doctor already has a granddaughter when he was still in his first incarnation. Like, his partner was much further along in their regenerations so the Doctor ended up having a kid really young. I’m going to say this was kind of a scandal, someone in their first incarnation with someone in, like, their seventh or something. Then Susan’s mother followed in her dad’s footsteps, kinda, only going even further and having a kid not only while still in their first incarnation but then with a non time lord, some other species with a lifespan about as long as a single regeneration. So Susan only has the one life, but it’s several centuries long. That’s a big reason why she left with the Doctor, Gallifrey does not look kindly on mixed species. They seem like the conservative type that way.

Superman Fic Idea

So, I’ve seen plenty of fic where Batman is depicted as the most paranoid member of the Justice League where no one knows his identity n the whole team and maybe don’t even know he has kids. (I hate fics where the justice league meet the Batfamily for several reasons) And, for the most part, I do think Batman would be more paranoid then other members when it comes to contingency plans, but I don’t actually think he’d be the most paranoid about his actual identity. Pretty much everyone Batman knows and cares for is some kind of super or super-affiliated. He’d be careful, but I don’t think he’s the most motivated to make sure his identity stays secret.

You know who has a lot more incentive to want his secret identity locked down right? Superman. This almost invincible hero who can really only be hurt by going after his loved ones, of which he has plenty. Superman has his parents, his friends, the Daily Planet and Smallville, all of whom would be in danger if it got out that who he was. Not to mention, Superman doesn’t where a mask, his biggest protection on his identity is that no one thinks he has one. You don’t suspect the random reporter guy to be Superman unless you have reason to believe Superman has an actual job.

I think Superman would actually be one of the most careful heroes in regard to his identity. And it would be pretty easy for him to do, especially since he has an actual name to give them to use.

Moving to the actual fic idea. A story about the Justice League founding and growing together through the framing of how much Superman shares about himself. I like the idea of the Justice League being taken in by the Kal-El came to earth as a teenager-adult and using his birth name. I think Superman might drop hints about himself mixed with info he learned from ai Joe-El. I just think it would be a fun story, maybe play with expectations in a bit with Batman and Superman.

Isekai Idea

I think it’d be interesting to have a protagonist who is an expert in medieval history get transported into the standard savior is summoned to defeat the demon king scenario. Like, even basic knowledge of that time period would make anyone super distrustful of the church and monarchy, since they are almost always just the absolute worst. So you have someone with that background and instinctive mistrust faced with exactly those kind of people claiming that they’re there to save the world. The gimmick is that the king and head priest are actually completely sincere but the protagonist just refuses to believe people in those positions could possibly be good. I’m imagining some kind of gag story with that premises, I just think it’d be funny.

Alternatively, you take the medieval history expert and have them be reincarnated in a world where everyone has complete and total implicit trust in the church and or monarchy because of divine right or something, real or imagined, and the protagonist just has to deal with their modern sensibilities of democracy in the face of classism. Or something. It’s not a fully fleshed out idea.

Naruto Fic Problem

There’s this kind of annoying trend in Naruto fanfic where Naruto is basically abused by the whole village, constantly getting yelled at, only being sold rotten food, his teachers purposely sabotaging him, people actively attacking him, etc. This has always bothered me because it feels like writers are taking things way too far in his treatment. Especially when they include other ninja acting that way when that’s never really shown. I mean, yeah, there’s was that one guy who threw a mask at him and no one really went out of their way to be kind besides Iruka and the Hokage but they never show evidence that he was constantly being tormented. I just can’t imagine that if things were taken to that extreme that one, the Hokage never would have stepped in or two, that Naruto would have put up with things to that degree. It makes me uncomfortably to read, and I like canon-divergent stories where someone takes him in and raises him, but I hate reading about him being treated like that, it just doesn’t seem realistic and makes me sad. It also doesn’t make Konoha worth saving, if it’s people are that bad, why bother with it? I like it having flaws and exploring its corruption is interesting, but people take it to an extreme that just makes it seem flat and dull. I’m just really not a fan of every civilian in Konoha being a fear driven, pack mind orientated monster towards Naruto.

Story Idea

So the Lucifer in Supernatural is just the worst, and so is their Michael, what with the whole trying to possess Sam and Dean and start the apocalypse and what not. But I’ve recently been inspired by this great crossover between Supernatural, Good Omens and Lucifer (TV) where that’s not always the case. Lucifer isn’t actually the epitome of all evil in every interpretation of the Bible anyway, I mean Satan and Lucifer weren’t even always the same person, and besides that, Satan as a term was originally, like, a title for Heaven’s prosecutor or something, back before the Christian concept of Hell was a thing. I’m getting off tract.

Anyway, I was thinking of a world (specifically like an AU of Good Omens because I love those characters) where Lucifer isn’t evil, he’s a prosecutor, and judge and jury of hell, which has more in common with the Underworld than it does with fire and brimstone worst place on Earth just because I don’t want him miserable. Anyway, he’s happily married to his Queen, Lilith, totally devoted and monogamous and has been for millennia. Meanwhile Michael is just kind of living it up on Earth, going around drinking, picking fights, flirting with people and eating pie. Sometimes he drags other angels with him because he thinks they need to chill out more, his favorite victim is a little guy named Castiel. Lucifer and Michael get along with their siblings no problem, they especially like each other a good deal, though they can get on each other’s nerves sometimes. Lucifer often considers Michael a jerk while Michael will say Lucifer can be a bitch.

Get where I’m going with this? I just keep picturing Sam and Dean in their bunker staring at these two alternate versions of beings who’ve given them so much trouble, and it’s just them. I think it’s a fun idea, especially if you threw in Crowley and Aziraphale, like they’re just there being themselves.

The Fanfiction Question

The one thing I’ve never been able to understand are those unfinished stories that have no proper explanation as to what happened to the author. The ones that say they haven’t been updated in years but when you read the author’s note it sounds like they are still writing it and plan to regularly update, some even specifically promise an upcoming update that never came. What happened? I get that since it’s fanfiction these stories are being done at the author’s leisure and we can’t expect too much, but is it that hard for the author to write a quick note saying they’ve abandoned the story or they’re going on hiatus? Why just leave it without explanation? The not knowing is one of the most frustrating things about fanfiction, even when compared to the over abundance of horrible out of character stories.

Code Geass Problem

There are a lot of things wrong with the alternate history in the Code Geass world, it’s like the authors just threw together a few key points in history they thought were interesting and said they went differently without any real follow through. For one, Britannia apparently exists because the Roman Empire never managed to permanently conquer the British isles, or something. That’s a huge fricken deal, it would have caused everything in the Western Hemisphere to go differently but somehow most of the world apparently progressed a lot like the real world. Napoleon as the first president of the EU or whatever really doesn’t make any sense considering who the man actually was and his beliefs but whatever, not to mention Washington’s Rebellion. How did the thirteen colonies even form when all the empires that took over the Americas are fundamentally different? The BS about Benjamin Franklin always manages to make me incredibly angry, of all the founding fathers they could have chosen to be the traitor they managed to pick one of the least likely candidates. Whatever, I’m not going into all the many problems, but the one thing that really bothers me for reasons I don’t really get, why does pre-invasion Tokyo look like the Tokyo of today? That city only exists as is because the original one was burnt down by the American bombing in WWII and then rebuilt, there’s no reasons for it to look like that when it took a very precise series of events to make it, events that didn’t happen in the Code Geass universe. Nothing is more irritating than ill thought out worldbuilding, especially in products I actually like.

Teenage Vampire Nightmare

My brother just turned eighteen and thinking about him being stuck at the age he’s at now sounds like the worst nightmare ever. Any romanticism teenage me felt about vampire like Edward and Stefan is gone forever, now I just pity them.

Superman Movies Problem

I enjoy the classic Superman movies well enough, they’re campy fun, but I really hate how they portray Jor-El and Clark’s relationship with humanity. Why does being Superman have to be some kind of grand mission he’s destined to go on? And the whole thing about him having to stay apart from them is just really weird. I guess it’s part of the Jesus analogy they were going with? But I hate that too.

Superman isn’t a chosen one, his birth parents didn’t send him to Earth with some mission to serve and/or lead humanity. They didn’t care about humanity, Earth was convenient because kryptonians look like humans and it has a yellow sun, so they knew their baby would be safe and could blend in. The only thing Jor-El and Lara cared about was getting their son off of Krypton so he would be able to live, what he did after that was entirely up to him, they just wanted him alive.

This idea’s shown up other places, I remember it clearly from Smallville where the Jor-El AI was almost an antagonist, I didn’t like that either. The AI should just be a database sent with Clark so that he would have information about his species, it didn’t have any purpose beyond giving him a piece of home.

So, yeah. That’s always bugged me, especially when it was used as an obstacle for Clark and Lois being together. Why would his parents ever want him to live alone his whole life? Doesn’t it make more sense for them to want him to find a romantic partner (if he’s interested in that)?

That’s one of the reasons I’ve never understood Superman II. Why does Clark have to give up his powers to be with Lois and why does him being Superman mean they can’t be together? It’s such a weird plot line. Those movies really wanted to make him some kind of god figure didn’t they?

I really do prefer the version of him where he’s just a guy who wants to help but not let I take over his life, so him mom made him a suit.

Spider-Man

You know that one McDonalds triangle meme that’s weirdly popular and tends to show up at least once in every fandom? I saw an MCU one once and was unreasonable enraged by Spidey being put with the McDonalds! McDonalds! McDonalds! corner. Spidey would, depending on just how annoying the kids are, without a doubt be the guy who’d drive up to the window, order a single black coffee and leave.
