Argh! Where Was It?
07-01-2013, 02:52 PM
It's "help me find that fic again" time, people. This one got a reference here just a few months ago but for the life of me I can't find it now. Synopsis: Agatha Heterodyne gets thrown into the Stargate universe via lab accident, before she discovers she's a Spark. It was being posted on SpaceBattles.
Can anyone point me at it again? Thanks.

That's it, indeed.
I must have bungled something when I looked. Thank you.

I got one that has been stumping me. I'm sure I have it -somewhere- but I can't find it. I could be smashing several fics together.
Harry Potter fanfiction where he ends up soul bound to Gabrielle Delacour.
From memory there was a trace of super!Harry in it. Gabrielle heals Harry's eyes thanks to the bond, taking the pain herself.
There is a costume ball where Harry goes as Merlin and Harry's friends scramble to hide his presence.
There is Dumbledore bashing, and Mrs Delacour is said to be normal witch. There is shopping, political maneuvers, and stuff by the swimming pool.
Anyone know the fic I'm trying to find?

You might be ficmixing, but this is the one with the costume ball.

A story that was recomended here a while back: Set at the beginning of The Hobbit, but Bilbo actually has a few years of adventuring experience and possibly has been taking lessons from Tom Bombadil. The Shire has been reimagined along the lines of a village of D&D halflings, i.e. they look like harmless simple country folk on the surface but turn out to have a bunch of steath-and-trickery badasses among them if you make trouble. Gandalf and the Dwarves are caught completely flatfooted by all this.

Oh man, you mean the one where Bilbo was practically raised by Tom? I've seen it, but stopped reading because it was just getting to be too much.

It was sort of turning into Thorin Oakenshield in the Land of the Mary Sues, wasn't it? Basically the entire Shire took about five levels in Badass, collectively and individually.
And after half an hour of searching, I can't find the damn recommendation anywhere in the forums. Grrr.

There was "Back Again" , but it is Peggy Sue, not Mary Sue.

Master of Wood, Water, and Hill is a bit silly and OTT, but I like it so far anyway. I think that the real test will come when they leave Adventurer Bilbo's home ground - if everything continues to go his way and he's good friends with everyone still, that might be more of a problem, but as it is he's pretty much just a middling-high level Bard enjoying the benefits of being a local notable. It wouldn't even be beyond the pale for him to have contacts throughout the non-Sauron-aligned regions, for that matter.

Thank you.
It is over the top but it's over the top in a serious-yet-crackish style that I enjoy when it is executed with competence.

Lost track of a one-shot story that I thought I'd been linked to from here. It's a fairly short one-shot with Batman and a shell shocked Pinkie Pie who depending on how one looks at it either didn't handle meeting the Joker well or dealt with it in a properly final manner (she just couldn't accept the way he was tainting laughter). Rather a clash of setting tones, but I thought it was done well.

Oh, I remember that -- vaguely -- so it must have been mentioned here.

Wasn't a fic per se - it was in one of the My Little Pony plotpoint threads. It's in Skyefire's post about 2/3rds of the way down.
Pinkie Pie/Batman
(initially wrote that as Pinkie & the Bat which leads to a completely different crossover idea...)

Aha! That's it, thank you I've been driving myself crazy trying to track it down since I was sure it was on fimfiction.net
