Just sorta noticed that there just weren't any topics on prompts and inspiration and stuff like that. Uh, if I missed it, just consider this a new thread, updated and stuff. D: Okay, this started when I went and read the "Canon" thread. Thanks to Ronin for this ol' post... The difference between chucking Sephiroth in and Sephiroth chucking himself in proves interesting. You could say Cloud ditched Sephiroth and either he A: dies outright, or B: gets swallowed into the Lifestream only to come back in a big chunk of Materia. If Sephiroth threw himself in like in Last Order, then he deliberately got crystallized into a big chunk of materia. That puts the pressure off Cloud. Now, that's interesting... Sephiroth materia? Sephiroth summon? What if Yuffie got her hands on this Sephiroth summon? Would she use it to smite Shinra? Would she command him to pose in suggestive positions and eat chocobo aphrodisiacs? Would she defeat the Five Mighty Gods with Sephiroth? Have an orgy? Or would it actually be a serious fic? ...what if there were to be a Yuffie summon? Say, she magically crystallizes herself, or something... Materia ninja thief summon? What if [glow=red,2,300]Mako[/glow] turned out to be alcoholic? What if it's addictive? Would there be a twelve-step program for it? Okay, this is turning out to be a "What if...?" thread too. xD Feel free to run with the ideas. Ugh, my weird Brit/American spellings are...urgh... I mean, crystallizes, what the hell? Oh well. Whatever. I blame the Internet for that one.

er... there's an inspiration thread callled...inspiration. This was probably just eager over sight on your part, but I would suggest deleting this thread.

Yes, I noticed the "Inspiration" thread...but it was mostly about what inspires you. I didn't really think prompts fit into that one, so I made this. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Ok, sorry about that. If this is turning into a plot idea thread, then its all good with me. ;D
Hmm, I always thought what if Vincent always had the demons with him. They always portray the demons as if Hojo put them there. What if Hojo's experiments simply released something that was always there? What if Vincent's Chaos gene gave him abilities other than being able to harbor Chaos?

Hmm, that's an interesting idea...
Maybe when Hojo experimented on Vincent, perhaps different parts of his personality just compartmentalized into the four monsters. Maybe Lucrecia's vial just allowed Chaos, the most destructive force, the beastliest one within him, to leave dormancy...
After all... "I am becoming less human..."
Edit: Changed the topic title to reflect where this thread seems to be going.

Ooh, nice thread. What if [glow=red,2,300]Mako[/glow] turned out to be alcoholic? What if it's addictive? Would there be a twelve-step program for it? I know of at least one fic that uses this idea. It's called Family Portrait, by Galaxia Alpha. It's good - go read it. ;D I like the idea of a Sephiroth summon, but what about an Aerith summon? Materia magic is supposed to come from the memories of those in the Lifestream or something like that, so what kind of materia would Aerith's memories create? Were the other summons in the game once real people, like the aeons in FFX?

Oh Odin help me. Don Corneo summon. "Molest your enemies!" As for the memories to materia, I think materia is created from the knowledge/memories of the Ancients...right? Also....languages on the Planet. Costa del Sol would definitely be Spanish...Nibelheim German...Wutai Japanese, possibly Chinese. Midgar...well, it could be Norse, but English seems more likely. Kalm is still a mystery to me...Mideel? No idea. Northern Continent...Bone Village doesn't count. Knowlespole/Icicle Village...originally probably Cetra but now...Finnish? I have no idea. xD Junon is just weird. Uh, Gold Saucer and Chocobo Farm (duh) doesn't count... What about Rocket Town? (For some reason I am now reminded of Team Rockets running around, ie Jesse, James, and Meowth cultivating Scam City.) Cosmo Canyon probably some native tribal language. >

Kalm would still probably be English, maybe Swiss since it has very Scandinavian looking buildings. Mideel I would say one of the Polynesian languages since its an island and its pretty small. The Northern Continent would probably have the same language Greenland and Iceland have(whatever that is). Cosmo Canyon does have a Native American motif, so I think that it would have that kind of language.
Maybe Aerith would make a summon similar to Eden from FFVIII. I don't know if Eden is holy or not, but it seems like a good match. Eden is the name of paradise, where Aerith now resides and she was the last Cetra which makes her the guardian of the earth. Eden is the strongest summon so it functions in that manner.

Don Corneo Summon- "Molest your enemies"
Yay Stella!! That has got to be the single most terrifying- yet funny idea I've EVER seen for a Summon! ^_^ I give you brownie points for that chaoticly disturbing thought!!
As for the Aerith Summon, I think that's a great idea. No clue what it would end up looking like though... Shiva wearing pink, surrounded by cute animals like Bambi from KH?? LOL
Regardless, I think she would be a restorative/protective summon rather than an attack summon.

Oh, so you mean sorta like...
MARY SUE SUMMON.
OWNAGE INVINCIBILITY+INSTANT DEATH+RESTORATIVE EFFECTS+LOVE.
Okay, if anyone actually gets inspired by one of these crack ideas, you so have to post the resulting crackbabyfic here. REALLY. xD

*first post... total newbie...*
Uh, yes... I was looking around the site... XD and as a very big fan of what ifs (especially in roleplay form) I came here. I'm ecstatic that the first things I found were two ideas I've already had! So I'm NOT the only person to think about native languages and regional accents in FF7! ^-^ *feels very at-home among the geeks* Not to mention... I had some vague story idea about many of the original members of Avalanche being turned into summon materia... the only thing keeping me from writing it (despite the fact that I have plenty of other stories already on my hands) is the fact that the main character would probably have to all be OCs... unless if, maybe, you could take one of those with the extended lifespans and have them summoning up their old friends...

Don Corneo summon. "Molest your enemies!" 0_o I'd be really afraid of using that summon. Welcome to GA Sheval - it is a bit nervewracking to make your first post, but we have a thread on the newbie board that allows you to introduce yourself so that we can get to know you and you can get to meet us - we're all really nice, I promise
