Ima going to post MOST of my ideas, which may never be written because I'm always depressed.
title: Ballad of the Bone Daddies
source: Nightmare Before Christmas
type: humor/something
characters: whole TNBC cast sans Sally and Santa Claus
Yet another origin fic (there's lots in the TNBC section of ff.net), this is also my tribute to Danny Elfman. I actually did write the first chapter to this. Anyway, before he was the pumpkin king, Jack Skellington was a rebellious musician and head of the traveling band, the Bone Daddies. Oogie Boogie, who was Jack's comrade back then, was the mastermind behind the special effects at their gigs. When Jack crashes a Halloween festival with his singing, instead of being in trouble with the Mayor, the little man recognizes the skeleton's charismatic potential and requests that Jack go on scaring missions. Jack is successful and over the years he becomes more respected. He also abandons his band, which angers Oogie Boogie and starts their longtime fued.
This fic will also explain those 3 musicians from the movie, Oogie Boogie's stuff in his dwelling, and how Shock. Lock, and Barrel came into his possession. Oh yeah, and Zero was a house-warming gift.
title: How the Gym was Lost
source: Pokemon
type: angst
characters: Hitmonchan, Karate King Kyo, Sabrina, Chuck, other Pokemon
The story begins with an aged Hitmonchan nearing death. He rests at the cliffs of Mount Mortar and looks at the distant Kanto mountain range, longing for hiw home in Saffron. Thinking back on his life, he remembers when he first came into possession of the pre-teen Kyo, who will one day become the Karate King and gym leader of Saffron. Over the years, as Kyo become a dignified gym leader, Saffron was being builty up and modernized. An old Japanese dojo seemed out of place for such a distinguished city. Enter Sabrina and her Psychic squad. Kyo, desperate to save his gym and one of the last historical sites of Saffron, challenges her, but his team of Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee lose easily. Training no longer has meaning for Kyo and Hitmonchan, and selling bred Tyrogues and Hitmon do little for them also.
One day, Kyo hears of a Fighting gym leader try out going on in Johto. By this time, Hitmonchan is over 30 years old and his reflexes were beginning to slow down. But they are determined, so they take the long trip to Johto. Kyo and his team do very well in the try-outs until they face Chuck and his deadly Poliwrath. Kyo and Hitmonchan are crushed at the loss. The man retires from training and retreats to the quiet mount Mortar. Over the years, Hitmonchan watches other cities get built up and another league established. Seasons change. The end is so sad, it makes me tear up when I narrate it in my head ;_;
title: ???
source: Pokemon
type: humor/romance
characters: Gavin, Machoke, Whitney, Magby, Nidoran male, Cubone
15 year old Gavin is frustrated. Not only does he keep being defeated by Whitney, but his brand new Machoke he had to trade for never evolved into Machamp, disobeys him, and keeps eating all his food. He figures there must be a problem with it, so he brings it to the Pokemon center to be checked out. It turns out the Machoke is female, and she's pregnant. Now Gavin has to put his journey on hold and return home to take care of a creature he doesn't even like. As Machoke's pregnancy progrsses, Gavin becomes more attached to the Pokemon and forms a *gasp* loving bond with her.
title: Black Sand
source: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
type: action
characters: Ganondorf, his mother, Nabooru, that big black horse
Just a one-shot of a 17 year old Ganondorf going through his rites of passage to adulthood, one of which is catching the rare Gerudo black desert stallion, a powerful horse with a taste for blood. Origin of Ganondorf's steed btw. Oh yeah, and that pot of soup in the Gerudo hideout is made from those killer cacti.
title: Piercing Navel-ty
source: Pokemon
type: humor
characters: Hitmonchan (Quincy), Electabuzz (Duncan), Mr. Mime (Maurice), Magmar (Brent), Golduck (Tandy), Tyranitar (Tardy), their trainer, Team Magma, and a Zangoose who owns a piercing hut
To prove his fearlessness, a wussy Hitmonchan gets his navel pierced. While he gets admiration from his team mates, his trainer isn't so pleased and she tells him to remove it; not only does she dislike piercings, but it's a hazard in battle (oh yeah, this is one of those fics where the trainers and Pokemon can speak to eachother). On the day of the big tournament, Hitmonchan puts his piercing back in; he fights badly because of the pain and loses to a Togepi who pokes him in the stomach. Just when things couldn't get any worse... it does! Team Magma show up with a killer Numel who uses Overheat and Eruption like mad. Hitmonchan realizes that the only way to stop it is to take out his navel piercing and plug up the Numel's hole with it (yes, I stole the idea from the Simpsons). It works, the Numel explodes, and the ending is happy with some cutesy moral.
Too lazy to tell my other ideas
