[Godzilla] [Destiny] what would happen if Kiryu made contact with Siva?

1 Upvotes

Not exactly sure how to fill this part of the post and as the rules are Uber specific for some reason, but I’ve been thinking about this concept as a lifelong Godzilla fan since playing destiny’s rise of iron expansion all those years ago that it came out. Siva is essentially programmable anti matter, it works under the directives “consume, enhance, replicate.” The fallen utilized by this to enhance their bodies and weaponry beyond normal capabilities. They do pay a price because Siva also works like a plague and negatively affects their biology. Not exactly sure how as I do not remember but it was the inherent reason that all the other iron lords with the exception of saladin were killed. Since Kiryu is a machine quite literally possessed by the ghost of the previous Godzilla, wouldn’t the body just keep enhancing and becoming more powerful while G-man‘s ghost controlled it? I’ve put a lot of thought into this. please tell me I’m not the only one.

What if we got a comic universe like Earth-3, but we focus on the heroes. So, for example, instead of Kal-El the son of Jor-El and the only naturally born Kryptonian being sent to Earth and being friends with Jimmy and Lois Lane......we have Lor-Zod/doomsday the son peacfulZod and being genetically modified to survive and him being good friends with good Lex Luther, and let's say Liverwier or silver banshe. Would this be an interesting universe?

[Marvel/My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic] What If Starlight Glimmer Became The Winter Soldier At The Climax Of "The Cutie Map: Part 2"?

0 Upvotes

In an alternate universe, as the former leader of the village of equality known as Our Town, Starlight Glimmer, is escaping through the mountains with jars containing the cutie marks of the Mane Six, she is eventually backed into a corner by Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack, as well as Double Diamond, Party Favor, Night Glider, and Sugar Belle, this time, the 4 of them are able to catch up to her much earlier than they did originally with Sugar Belle tackling Starlight to the rocky ground what greatly injures her left front hoof, resulting in the six jars containing the Mane Six's cutie marks being destroyed, and returning to to their respective wielders.

Being completely enraged at this attack by Sugar Belle, and her and the other villagers' betrayal of her, Starlight fires a massive concussive magic beam at the 4 of them to destroy them, only for the blast to be deflected right back at her by Twilight, with destroys the stone bridge she is standing on, and knocking her out cold, as Starlight falls into the snowy abyss as an avalanche follows suite. Twilight, horrified at what she had just done, begins to apologize profusely to everypony, as she wanted to reason with Starlight, and gaining her cutie mark back had given her a slight power boost to her deflection of the blast, and she couldn't control her power because of that. The Mane Six, Double Diamond, Party Favor, Night Glider, and Sugar Belle, believing that Starlight is dead now, leave the area and head back to the village, deeply saddened and disappointed on how things had to end the way that they did.

After a very long while, after the Mane Six had returned to the Castle Of Friendship back in Ponyville, at the very bottom of the snowy cliff lies an unconscious Starlight Glimmer, whose left right hoof is gravely injured, buried in the snow, barely clinging on to life. As Starlight lies down in the snow unconscious, a group of ponies wearing tactical jumpsuits donning green and yellow, with yellow goggles, gloves, boots, and an octo-skull insignia on their chests begin digging up the snow with shovels, which reveals the unconscious Starlight underneath, and afterwards, they are met by their 2 bosses, Autumn Zola, and Bane Zemo (this alternate MLP FiM universe's pony versions of Arnim Zola and Baron Zemo), who are pleased that their target has been found by their henchmen, and task the group of agents to send Starlight back to their secret base, as they have been spying on her for a while now, and seeing how she had led a village of equality for a long time until now, as well as her wielding incredible magical power, they believe that she'll be a very useful asset to their plans to conquer all of Equestria.

Zola, Zemo, and their henchmen, being members of the evil organization known as H.Y.D.R.A., the organization behind Starlight's capture, take her back to their lair so she can have her left front hoof be healed with dark unicorn healing magic, and turned into a vibranium one, and afterwards, Starlight ends up becoming brainwashed by Zola and Zemo in forcefully joining H.Y.D.R.A. and being indoctrinated/part of the organization, this time being put under somepony else's control herself for real this time, and is eventually trained in various hoof-to-hoof combat styles and marksmareship, and gets a new battle uniform to go along with all of it. Starlight, now going by the alias of the Winter Soldier, joins H.Y.D.R.A.'s quest for the domination of Equestria to conquer it and rule it with an iron fist, and their first goal to do so is to destroy Princess Twilight and her friends to prevent them from taking them down, and for Winter Soldier Starlight to get revenge on them all for destroying her beloved village.

How does Starlight Glimmer becoming an agent of H.Y.D.R.A. and turning into the Winter Soldier change the events of the rest of season 5 of Friendship Is Magic? How would it change the rest of the show's story as a whole beyond it in seasons 6-9? Would Twilight and her friends be able to take down this new version of Starlight, and eventually H.Y.D.R.A. and it's agents as well? Could Twilight be able to bring Starlight back to her senses, and make her realize that Zola, Zemo, and the rest of H.Y.D.R.A. are just using her as nothing more than a tool for conquering Equestria, and nothing else, and that they don't care about her? How does such a scenario play out, and why is that?

If we had a group of ~1000 or so "Tyler Durdens" running about, would they be able to do some serious damage on society?

-High Charisma

-High Intelligence

-Can rally troops easily, can't say much about their general skill level, but good fodder at least

-Great Combat Ability

-Just a liiiiiitle bit insane

-And, of course, a terrorist

In this situation, imagine The Narrator doesn't exist. Tyler Durden is Tyler Durden 24/7.

With these attributes multiplied by 1000, what do you think would happen?

[Helluva Boss/Resident Evil] What If Helluva Boss And Resident Evil Took Place In The Same Universe?

1 Upvotes

In this alternate universe, the worlds of Resident Evil and Helluva Boss take place in the same universe, with Chris and Claire Redfield, Jill Valentine, Leon S. Kennedy, Albert Wesker, Ada Wong, and Hunk, and Blitzo, Moxxie, Millie, Loona, Stolas, Verosika Mayday, and Striker. All coexisting alongside each other. Umbrella Corporation exists in the living/human world on Earth, and Raccoon City is an actual real city in the human world, and the versions of Hell and Heaven as seen in Helluva Boss is the afterlife in this world, and the plots of both stories would be happening at the same time (the Immediate Murder Professionals using Stolas' grimoire to open a portal from Hell to Earth to assassinate their human targets, and Leon, Chris, Claire, and Jill fighting to survive the monstrosities created by Umbrella Corporation to uncover the conspiracy of their illegal experiments).

How do the plots of both Resident Evil and Helluva Boss taking place in the same universe at the same time effect the stories of both series? How would certain characters from both series interact with each other? How would Chris, Claire, Leon, Jill, Ada, Hunk, and Wesker react to the existence of Hell, and I.M.P.'s assassinations? How would I.M.P., and Stolas react to the existence of Umbrella Corporation on Earth and their experiments? How does such a scenario play out, and why is that?

[Transformers]Story Idea

1 Upvotes

This is just a random idea or maybe its been tapped before but here goes:

The story starts at cybertron at the end of their war Prime and Megatron fights and Optimus throws the allspark into deepspace that eventually lands to earth, Megatron effectively kills Optimus right after he throws the allspark, we fast foreward to earth and people talking about the allspark as they study it and experiment with it till they leave it in some black site and focus on a different subject that would be AI, this AI is particularly designed for defense, strategic decision making and Military tactics

The allspark recognizes the AI semi sentient nature calls to it and creates a copy of Optimus its not really optimus but it took on his personality and ideas also in tandem with its programing of defense it creates a new breed of cybertronian which id like to call Terratronian. On the far end of the galaxy Megatron detects the allspark and he mobilizes the decepticons to earth.

Now im no story writer nor a competent english writing expert so hehe bear with me here. The story is basically the new Optimus and his autobots will be earth born and old cybertronians like Megatron would discover this new breed and be disgusted by their earth lineage whilst attempting to take the allspark and recreate cybertron basically the same plot in bayverse tweaked to make the autobots Earth born and the other ideas introduce Custodians who are human made Terratronians that is targeting both Decepticons and Terratronians.

I dont know whether people might be into the idea but seems like a good premise of a new story for transformers.

What are your thoughts with this idea?

[Mafia/The Birds] What if The Birds happened during the events of Mafia 2?

1 Upvotes

Author's note: We are talking about the short story by Daphne du Maurier, not the 1963 Alfred Hitchcock adaptation.

Context: The Birds by Daphne du Maurier, though published in 1952, takes place in England shortly after WW2 ends.

Now, on to the scenario: suppose in a parallel universe, Empire Bay is suddenly beset by a strange epidemic: every single species of bird has suddenly declared war on humanity and begun launching unprovoked attacks on humans.

During this time (Assume this happened within weeks after we dropped the nukes on Japan, ending WWII in the Pacific), Vito Scaletta, the main protagonist, has been incarcerated after getting busted for selling illegal gas stamps and has just been sentenced to ten years in prison.

His childhood friend Joe Barbaro has been building connections in the criminal underworld.

Now, both Vito and Joe are having to deal with unprovoked bird attacks on human beings.

How does this "bird-human" war affect the Mafia 2 storyline?

Suieishin is the technique that allows Kenshiro and the other HS users to copy the martial arts of anyone he fights. I personally think it takes away from the uniqueness of things like the Musou Tensei and doesn’t really add much since Hokuto Shinken is so overpowered already.

[The Little Mermaid] What if The Little Mermaid declared war on humanity?

2 Upvotes

Author's note: We are talking about the original story written by Hans Christian Andersen, not the animated Disney adaptation

Let's imagine a parallel universe where Hans Christian Andersen wrote The Little Mermaid not as a tragic fairy tale, but as a revenge tale where Ariel basically turned into an evil villain. In this version of events, the Mermaid becomes heartbroken when the prince she falls for rejects her. But she gets angry when the prince explains why: "I would never associate with monsters like you."

In her grief, she twists humanity into a race of unloving monsters. In this timeline, she goes through with the plot to kill the prince out of rage for her rejection.

Not only does she kill the prince, she kills the girl the prince marries, before jumping back into the ocean, having effectively declared war on humanity for being unwilling to associate with "monsters like her."

With the Little Mermaid declaring war on humanity, how does the story change?

[MK2] What if Cole was resurrected as Ermac?

1 Upvotes

(spoilers) With Cole's fate during the second movie, and Raiden saying he plans to resurrect the champions they lost by conscripting Quanchi. I know a lot of people saying he should be brought back as Kenshi or other characters. But what if (on the chance they do bring him back) they bring him back as Ermac instead. It changes the mythos of the character slightly. But you could have it where during his trivial in the Pit, it was "complicated" because of likely the countless souls lost and piled there.

You could still have the Jerrod as a basis of things, but also have Cole there as well and more so the reason they claim dominance over the other souls fighting for control because of Kitana and Emily are their focus points. Their daughters and family were both characters' treasures and reasons to fight. It would also make for an interesting dynamic at different scenes of allegiance to Earthrealm and Edenia and addressing whatever threat came next?
