Maybe I should talk about my story for a change. Then people can decide whether they want to look at it or not.

- Dragon Ball Legacy -
- Dragon Ball Legacy is a story playing 7 years after Dragon Ball Grand Tour
- It has a few retconnings so several things like some movies and Dragon Ball Super fit in better. It does not intend to answer all and every ? that people might have because of power, most retconnings are of different nature, because, while I think you don't need to be perfectly logical in every matter I still think of it as nice whenever at least some situations in a story are consistent - that does not mean that there is nothing that people might think of as weird though
- The main characters of the story are "sort of" Pan and Vegeta. The story tries to show as good as possible that Son Goku is Dragon Ball and that he will always be here - in one or the other way - but the others are still kind of a "replacement main character as long as he is not the active character". I tried to tell the story so people can see all of those three mentioned as main characters because of dfferent reasons and I hope I did not fail.
- The story consists of 4 Sagas:
- Vengeance Saga (a.k.a Zeero Saga)
- A story playing on Earth where Zeero, queen of the Kraiojin pays the Z warriors "a visit" shortly after the Budokai Tenkaichi finale between Pan and Oob -
people in focus: Pan, Vegeta, Oob, Zeero
- Time & Space Journey Saga (a.k.a Muita & A.I. Yado Saga)
- A story happening on several parts of the timeline involving some like the first training of Goku at Kami's lookout or when two people suddenly vanished to be experimented on -
- A story happening in another universe where the heroes have to find out where something they have found after saga 1 originates from and hopefully find a cure for the memory loss that was caused by this -
=> A 2 story saga with some people travelling through time while others travel to another universe, both have their own villain
people in focus (Time): Pan, Son Gohan, Muita
people in focus (Space): Vegeta, Trunks, Son Goten, Yado
- Legend Saga (a.k.a Shines Saga)
- A story starting in the Realm of the Dead where one of the baddies that are free for one day to fight in a tournament (Freeza, Cell, etc.) does simply not appear for the battle as he is subconsciously called by someone in the Otherworld, long ago sealed by Beerus and also known by Pan as she saw him during her time travelling -
people in focus; Pan, Vegeta, Beerus, Whis, Oni Shines
- Meta Saga (a.k.a. Soul Saga)
- A story about the true "Grand Tour", the final journey through all universes to collect the remaining "True Dragon Balls" which each of the characters having their very own little adventures (some of them completely alone, some of them like in a team of two), not expecting that there is someone greater waiting for them
- people in focus: Son Goku, Vegeta, Pan, Oob, Soul

The mentioned characters do not mean they are gonna be the only important ones. They are just the "great spotlight" characters. I actually did not list two others because I do not want to mentioned them being included in several sagas. Of course I did not want to tell really anything about it. Some people, like 5 or so know more about it already though.

A short comedy fic about Yamcha & Ox-King trying to cook the most delicious meal possible for Beerus so he doesn't destroy the world (esentially an AU of Battle of Gods, found [url]here:http://www.kanzenshuu.com/forum/viewtop ... =6&t=34215[/url]).

And an AU taking place in the Future timeline where the dead warriors train in the afterlife to take on the Androids while the survivors try to last in the new post apocalyptic Earth of theirs. Essentially the future timeline if people remembered about King Kai, his ability to call New Namek smashed together with the Boo Saga later on.
Any kind of idea when you're gonna continue that fanfic? I love it so much, and I would hate to see remain on the backburner indefinitely.

Gonna try to finish it sometime soon but with college exams still going I don't have time. Its definitely my first priority simply for being shorter than the other two ;)
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Oh, college exams definitely have to be your main priority. Take your time. I'm sure it'll be good. :D

Another story idea occured to me that I probably won't pursue but was cool to think about: cop drama with Krillin! LA Noire style, he'd crack a case during a routine run and get promoted to detective, solving mysteries and crimes primarily using his brains. Having the power to blow up a planet or twelve isn't much good to you if you screw up an interrogation, miss a clue or interpret things poorly and fail a particular case :P

I'm currently planning a fanfic about a topic discussion I had, if Goku (or King Kai when Goku was telling everyone goodbye for seven years) gave Trunks the coordinates to New Namek. Outline's going good, I want everything to planned so I won't hit writer's block.

Thought it'd be nice to bring back this thread after a month, sort of as a general Dragon Ball stories thread. :P

Well, Honor Trip is basically dead.

Savior of Demons just updated (she updates the 31st every other month...so the update before this was on August 31st) today.

Bringer of Death is another good one.

A collection of what-ifs:

Honor Trip: Instead of Gohan punching Lazuli out of Cell, he hits him in the head, and it happens to be the same spot where Goku hit his head all those years ago. Basically, Cell slowly turns good.

Savior of Demons: Set in the original timeline, Goku kills King Cold first, leading Mecha-Frieza to be unable to survive on his own. Goku spares him and the Arcosian begins a path to redemption.

Bringer of Death: Rather than Vegeta getting his ass kicked by Frieza, he becomes a Super Saiyan.

Break Through the Limit: Raditz turns good.

Limits are Meant to be Broken: Another Raditz turns good fic, but very different from the former.

Piccolo's Choice: Piccolo stays evil and brainwashes Gohan into being his apprentice.

Cold World: Gohan is abducted by Raditz. The story chronicles Raditz, Nappa, Vegeta, Gohan, and their life under Frieza. A VERY brutal fic.

Frigid Future: Set in the future timeline. Seeking to get his revenge for the deaths of his brother and father, Cooler arrives on Earth to find their killer dead, the RRA, with a legion of androids, fighting against a resistance, and 17 and 18 having gone rogue.
