I don't know what it is, but my mind has been stuck on Naruto, lately.
Now, I don't write fanfiction like, it would seem, most of the people here, so bear with me.
First idea I had was a Naruto vs. Terminator crossover. Maybe in the setting of a fallen metropolis. Then I realized that having an enourmously destructive car chase scene in such a setting would be at best problematic.
Second thought I had, since Naruto strongly reminds me of DBZ in some ways, was "What if [character here] decended from Vegeta/Goku in some way?" leading to "What if [character here] somehow managed to become Super Saiyan?" which led to me giggling for a few seconds at the idea of a Super Saiyan Sakura staring [insert character] down with eyes that are now somewhat greener and crazy hair. Then I realized the myriad inherent difficulties in meshing DBZ with Naruto (in particular: ki vs. chakra, strength levels, and how any Naruto character is supposed to reach the base level of strength for being able to transform).
Super Saiyan Sakura would still rock, though. Or, hell, Lee. Either one.
Third thought I had: Sasuke dropped into the Marvel universe (well, maybe not the most recent one; I never really kept up, but I know NOTHING about the most recent state of affairs.) He would be taken for a mutant, probably (which would, technically, be true, given the canon explaination of what Bloodline Limits are). The idea of a Sasuke Chidori-ing Juggernaut only to get knocked through a wall for his trouble makes me giggle (or, hey, it might actually work after a fashion and stun or hurt old Juggernaut; I'm not intimately familiar on Marvel mechanics). Plus: I wonder how they'd take his cursed seal? And the character interaction could be pure gold. Or hey, substitute Gaara for Sasuke. That could be interesting.
Forth thought I had: Sasuke as a film noir detective. Just because. (Plus, the third dot in the Sharingan could make him unnaturally good with a gun if he worked at it).
Fifth thought: Gaara as Harry Potter. I don't know why I thought of that and I'll try not to do it again.
Sixth thought:![[Image: GaaraOHYEAH.gif]](http://home.earthlink.net/~angryoptimist/images/Gaara/GaaraOHYEAH.gif)
Seventh thought was, "Hey, I've run out of thoughts!"
-Angryoptimist,
yeah, I don't know what that was all about, either.
(EDIT: it also upsets me somewhat that, in no Naruto fanfiction I've ever seen, has any character ever said, upon seeing Gaara, "Oh, look, it's Feyd/Sting.") Two great tastes that go great together!
