Hey guys and gals.  With Making Waves off to Hiryo, AGGC off to Michael, and work on FILFy about two thirds done, I had a few quickish type questions.  Some are opinion questions (NOT Polls LOL) while others are tiny info questions.  As always, any questions that deal with specific stories will be marked as such.

First FILFy (duh):

1. Is there an equivalent of the flying broom in Asian magical myths and such?  I'm thinking about the Onmyouji here.  

2. This is a question for those among you who know anything about the Tuatha De Danaan.  Is there a god of hearth and home in that mythology? Like one who specifically looks after the home and family?

3. If I were to add another mythological weapon from the Irish side of things, would it be more interesting to give it to one of the other characters permanently, or have it added to Harry's repertoire, and then have him just stop using Ddraig at all.     

4. Is it time to have Lily call Rias Mum yet? Or should that wait a few more chapters despite how comfortable they both are with Rias in that role?

Anything Goes Game Changer:

This question isn't about anything in the story, rather it is about the story itself.  I have said for a while, hell I think since February, that I could see this story ending soonest of all my current stories.  But since then, it just hasn't been doing very well in the polls at all.  So would a lot of you have a problem with me removing the second option from the small story poll to concentrate on this story?  By that I mean I would automatically update Making Waves and AGGC until AGGC is done, with the polls only dealing with the large story per month, and the first place winner of the small story poll being #4 on my priorities per month. 

A Third Path:

1. This is more of a long term question than anything else.  I have been saying for a long while that while Harry and co. could smash any fleet that came their way, they couldn't both defend earth and take the battle to the Kree.  So I am wondering which other power they should ally with, the Skrull, or the Shi'ar.  (Essentially this question can be read as, which should be a sacrifice to Galactus, and which should be saved from him...)

2. Random question.  Harry's sort of moved past the point where the sword of Gryffindor has any meaning or can even really add much to his preferred style of combat, especially after this last power up moment.   So who should he give it to permanently:  Piotr or Steve Rogers?  

3, A semi-long term question.  Are weddings interesting/important enough for me to have to write out all four such?  Or should i just fully write out Jeans, then have Emma and Ororo's be far milder, barely touched on affairs before writing out Hela's?  I am... not looking forward to these scenes, if you can tell.

Making Waves:

1. What does everyone think about Seilah?  Are you happy with her inclusion, do you like the idea of her and Ranma getting together, and if not explain why and what you would like to see concerning her instead. 

2. Same sort of question for Juvia.  At the moment we have Ranma in a relationship with Erza, interested in Seilah and Jenny, while he just broke up with Bisca.  So, should Juvia join the mix?

3. How many people are interested in the characters of/conflict with Alvarez?  Personally, I think they were vastly overpowered and a sign of the author kind of losing steam/focus after the Grand Magic Games, but that is just me.

I think that Lily should be ready to call Rias mom, but with the caveat that she is hesitant at first. Steve should be offered the sword, and weddings are boring. I'm not big on Seilah, but Juvia would work. could take or leave Alvarez, but if they are included they shouldn't be too much stronger than the wizard council.

Jonathan Brotemarkle

It prob would be best to finish off AGGC if it's near the end. That way, you can focus on it and get it done. Once it's done, it'll free you up to work on the other stories

DocBrown

For ATP I think just show Jeans and Hela's weddings with only mentions for the others unless there are critical details we need to know. I think the sword should go to Piotr.

Adam Ouellette

I think you should do it the other way around for AGGC and make it the 4th story every month after finishing the first place story. I believe having Lily call Rias mum would be fine now. I think the Skrull should be the Ally of Harry and co. It's your story so if you are uncomfortable with weddings then make them smaller affairs. I really like Seilah and would love to see her join Ranma but if she does I don't think Juvia would fit in unless you had a very convincing argument and I would reallllllyy like Juvia to join. I am unsure of who to give the sword of Gryffindor to as I don't think it would work with either of them, but I think Steve would be cooler, ya know sword and shield.

FILFY : 3:Give it to another character. 4: Yes, I think it's time. AGGC : I wouldn't mind seeing the end of this story. ATP : 1:The Sh'iar, no question. 2:Piotr 3:Jean's yes, it's first one it need some focus Emma's, a small discret thing Orroro's, nothing big either but probably with some ritual/nature magic, direct by Gaia herself I think. Hela's big too but in a different way, probably with the participation of those that still pray to the Asgardien pantheon. Making Waves 1:I like Seilah but I don't think she need to be include in the relationship, her dream to open a cafe/library seem nice and I'll like to see it but afterward she can fade in the background. 2:No Juvia either, too many.

xeroxedechidna

I don't think Seilah fits in the long term. She wants to sit and read rather than seek adventure. I think Juvia could fit, but depends on how you play out what her life goals are.

So, I'll try to answer the questions that I feel like I have some insight into: FILFy 3. I think you should give the weapon(s) to Harry's budding faction/Pantheon. What's the druid Yubelluna, the Priestess Asia, the little godling daughter Lily and anyone else that gets added into that particular slice. I think Harry's Fine with the weapon that he's already been gifted. Let's flush out the new people that he's been a blessing or future people he will bless. 4. I don't think it's too soon oh, but I think it should be like one of those calling your teacher mom moments. maybe they're having a good bit of fun playing outside and she slips and says something like “Thank you Mom” and then they both have a frozen moment and chuckle It Off. And have it be like a semi-awkward time for like a day or two before they have a sit-down conversation about it. It could be a nice character gross moment for both of them. Though, it gets me all the more interested and seeing when the Weasley family makes their inevitable crash into their lives and seeing Ginny's reaction to a majority of what's going on. But that will be like the cherry on top. A Third Path: Personally, I think you should go with the Shi'ar, But with all the hype from the MCU. It might be best to go to Skrull especially if you use that version of the Skrull that was presented in Captain Marvel. I actually don't think that it would really suit either of them. Maybe Captain America. For him to go full-on sword and shield. It just doesn't really seem to suit his style of Combat. I would actually recommend more so potentially providing it to either Kurt since he's already going into the house or play appear behind someone slash type fighting style. Not to mention if he's using a sword with poison already on it…. that's just most places combat efficiency. if not that though I would recommend waiting until an epilogue and providing it to one of Harry's kids. More than likely to one of Ororo's children. it feels like a legacy type weapon so handing it down to his kids seem to like the proper choice. Do whatever inspires you. At the end of the day, it's going to be a lot harder for you to type if you can't even get the motivation behind it. I rather you try to type out something that's a short Abridged version of everything but still what's your Spin and style on it rather than having to wait for a year for a full-blown wedding chapter. though, I do hope there will be a lemon scene added to it. I know you kind of taper It Off from them before this particular story. but I do miss seeing ex Missy that you portray between Harry and the woman that join him in this particular story. or even with the women themselves. I would love to see a seam between Emma and Jean or Hela and Ororo since it's definitely been building toward that particular dynamic. But, anyways I said whatever as far as you the most!

FILFy: 1. The main ones that spring to mind for asian myths are the likes of Flying Clouds, Origami type Shikigamis such as Huge Bird and Kites etc. I could even see Onmyouji having Shikigami/Familiars that they are able to fly on. Only other thing that I can think of is Harutoras Cloak from Tokyo Ravens which enables him to fly and a few other tricks similar to Dr Stranges. 2. From what I can remember reading about them I don't think there is, though Brigid may be the closest to what you are after. 3. Personally, if you add another I'd say either give it to Harry or maybe Yubelluna since it would fit those two the best. 4. I can see it being a slip of the tongue kind of situation at this point with it maybe causing Lily to realise herself how much she sees Rias as her Mum and consciously doing so after. AGGC: I have no problems with this, since you are close to finishing it. A Third Path: 1. Given the recent actions of the Dire Wraiths I can't see the Earth as a whole being willing to ally with the Skrull unless they were forced to, while they may be classed as completely different races most people wouldn't see them as any different, also I personally prefer the Shi'ar over the Skull. 2. Personally, I'd say it would fit Piotr better, since Steve is used to using his Shield in one hand and usually a gun in the other. But honestly both are good choices. 3. Write out Jeans and then a brief overview for some of the more important changes etc. to the other weddings. If you aren't up for writing it then forcing yourself to do so will most likely be evident in the writing. Making Waves: 1. Personally I like the idea, both because of the changes she's gone through and also she is one of the people who gets on the best with Wendy, however it will depend on how much her interactions with the other possible romances affect things as to whether she would end up with him. 2. Juvia I think deserves at least a shot, if it feels too forced when writing the pairing then maybe she drops out later on, similar to Bisca, but so far they haven't had enough interactions for me to commit one way or the other. 3. Personally I kind of lost interest myself after the Grand Magic Games, but I agree that with the exception of Irene and August the others didn't really make sense for how strong they were, At least those two could be argued that their age and Ancestry made it possible to be so Overpowered.

Jonathan Wesson

For FILFy: No idea for the first one, China has always had a fascination with rockets but other than that the only thing I can think of is the cloud-walking boots used by the chinese deity Sun Wukong; for the second you would be looking at either the Goddess Morrigan, specifically Anu or the fertility maiden, or the Goddess Brighid, another triple goddess for the Hearth healing and the crafts; For the weapons there are very few that haven’t either been done to death or would be redundant, like most of the irish swords as an example, we have the obvious Gae Buidhe, Derg or Bulg all spears that would fail against most of the weapons in the DxD verse other than that there are few I've found that are noteworthy; For Rias and Lily up to you your the writer, though having her say it whilst she is half asleep then falling back asleep would be in keeping with the DxD style of humour. Personally I didn’t get into Game changer that much but if you want to finish it to open yourself up for other projects go ahead, in the end it is both your time and your muse follow it how you please. ATP: For the First question that really will depend on how you want to portray each faction in your story do you want the Skrull to be malevolent or not, same with the Shi’ar, but personally I would say to side with the Skrull, cause if I am remembering my lore right... which is highly unlikely but hey its the internet you’ll tell me very quickly anyway… The Inhumans were in essence created by the Skrull in the same fashion as captain MarVel was, so it may sour future relations with them if Harry doesn’t aid them, feel free to ignore me if I am completely off base here; For the Weddings I can see it being a bigger affair for Jean and possibly Ororo, Emma’s would be more private and Hela I can see as being either completely over the top or getting interrupted by either Death or Thanos… possibly both at the same time, in any case write them as you like at the end of the day it is your story we are just here to enjoy it. For Making Waves… I’ll keep stum as I need to catch back up with it.

Matthew Garrett

For "A Third Path to the Future": #1.) On one hand, the Skrull would make a better sacrifice to Galactus but yet would not make as natural allies as the Shi'ar IMO. That said, this was my wariness when you kept the power levels going. Comics and Anime get in trouble for this very reason in their story telling. That said you've done a good job so far so I have my fingers crossed and eager for updates. #2.) Give the sword to Steve please! That way Captain America can go full Sword and Board. #3.) Even if you aren't looking forward to it, write out however long each wedding truly demands. If that means Ororo and Emma's weddings are long so be it. It's better to do it right IMO.

E.C.

In making waves number 2, YES! YES PLEASE! Juvia with Ranma would be absolutely amazing for him!

Delphinous

FILFY 1: i don't know of any equivalent to a witches broomstick, but lots of oriental creatures fly, so i would almost expect them to have some sort of a mount, instead of a flying vehicle 3: i would rather see a new weapon go to someone else, but no strong feelings either way 4: i think they are ready, but it should either be an accident that lily says it during an emotional situation, or she should be bold as brass and just ask rias/harry if it's ok ATP: 1: i think skrull is better, there just isn't any way for the humans to not be having to constantly resist assimilation with the shi'ar, i think the skrulls would work better as a militaristic type of ally 2: Piotr. though i think that harry should bring them both together as a way of testing both to see if the sword reacts to either one, and to have Cap decline the sword, being more comfortable with modern weaponry 3: i don't think the weddings need to be in super detail unless they are doing something unusual culturally. like, i'm very curious about hela's, but jeans and emma i don't expect much with, and ororo's would be mildly interesting i would expect. overally, i would expect the most detail with hela's, but the rest can probably be short and quick

1) Seilah is awesome! She adds a new type of drama to the mix and it'd be super interesting to see where you go with her in a relationship with him! Granted, I can easily see her opening up that shop she'd mentioned and being a type of 'live at home' housewife for him. She seems patient enough to wait for him to return after missions...as long as there aren't other parasites trying to latch onto him that is! 2) On the other hand, I'll always be a bit of a Gray/Juvia fanboy, so her hooking up with Ranma has never sat well with me. Yes, Gray could be considered asexual in a lot of regards, but don't forget the kinds of relationships and experiences he's had with the ladies in his life. Erza is a super-strict big sister who doesn't hesitate to pound him into the ground if displeased. This Mira's largely the same, but can be somewhat sweet when she's in a forgiving or happy mood. Lisanna and Anna are both Natsu-fangirls in his eyes. Cana is a shameless drunk who thinks all the boys in the guild aren't worth her time dating. Levi seems like the smart, overachieving little sister type who's constantly being 'guarded' by her own pair of fanboys. Lucy's smart and powerful, but also prone to overreacting and has a violent temper like Mirajane. Juvia is really the only girl who's ever shown real interest in him, but they'd also met in strange circumstances with her being in a guild who was nominally the enemies of his guild, so he always had to treat her with a bit of caution. What I'm trying to say is that Gray's had very few 'good' experiences with the opposite sex, so it's no wonder that he tries to keep to himself and focus only his training, missions, and pummeling Natsu. Getting back to Ranma and Juvia, I feel that Juvia wouldn't work out with him either. Like with Bisca, I feel that Juvia wants to be romanced and eventually settle down with her significant other and we all know that Ranma's nowhere near ready for that. Although, I can see her letting herself get involved with him as a fling, maybe even walking away with an unexpected surprise that'll show itself in 9 months? But as a true and long-term involvement, I don't think it'd work out in the end. 3) While I agree that the Alvarez guys did seem lacking, I do think that they are a necessary part of the story. If only for the fact that Zeref is their leader and Ranma's beef with the bastard for creating so many demons that he let loose on the world with no seeming remorse or attempt to stop afterwards. So, while it'll likely need a lot of work to revamp it into something better, I say 'YES!!' to Alvarez.

Kilderon

ATP: 1. I can certainly see both, so I'll withhold opinion. 2. Piotr probably has seniority, but I do admit Sword and Shield makes for a more obvious pairing. With Colossus's fighting style I'm not sure a sword suits him, then again, I'm not sure it suits Captain America either. Given Steve's role in the story moving forward as a sort of 2IC, I think I lean more towards giving it to Steve Rodgers. He needs the supernatural power up more than Piotr to deal damage to some of the threat's he'll face. Close call though. Considering the lore of the Sword of Gryffindor, Steve Rodgers fits better as well, while both are obviously 'Brave of Heart,' Steve Rodger's character is the personification of it. 3. I think you should write what you're comfortable doing, and 4 weddings in succession does seem like too much. Then again, I'd hate to short-change any of them, like the four characters the four weddings all sound unique individually, especially with how public facing some might become. Jean's is obviously immanent but maybe spread them out a bit chapter wise, so it doesn't become the 'weddings chapter' four weddings over four chapters, with each slightly in the background could work, focus on Harry's perspective as groom; gloss over all the preparation and mingling and just focus on the pair being wed, except where it's story necessary perhaps. Fade to black after the ceremonies, to avoid writing four different wedding night conversations, and just kick back into the action immediately. Just a suggestion, whatever you do though, don't feel forced to write the scene's if you're not looking forward to them, just gloss them over if you're not feeling it, a forced scene rarely comes across right anyhow, just enough detail to imagine them ourselves is better than trying to make four unique wedding experiences that come across as wonky.

Niva

Nice to hear that the storys are already sent out. I think you should follow the patter to release a AGGC chapter every two month so that the readers could have a choise what they want. Your idea is also good and I would like to read the finished story. For MW´s first question I think you should include her into the relationship. Erza and Seilah make a really good mix for Ranma. Throw Jenny in and it´s perfect. I don´t think Juvia would be a good addition to the bunch, because she isn´t in the power league of the other girls or Ranma. She wouldn´t be able to follow him on his travel. For the last question about Alvarez you could give us a few paragraphs every chapter to be up-to-date with Zerefs plans. You also could give us a direct view to Irene and her inner thoughts. About the power levels of the 12 Top Mages the only dangerous ones are Irene and August because of their age. The rest is just overpowered in the manga. We also should remember that in your story they didn´t have the 7 years timeskip to improve their own skills. On another note you already kill one of the Spriggan off. So they aren´t a big threat yet.

Austin k jensen

For FILFY teacher maybe a flying Oar like Botan from Yu Yu Hakusho Otherwise if its based on chinese mythology maybe a flying sword that they stand on like a Wuxia Story

Teraseneste

First FILFy (duh): 1. I'm not sure that there really is an equivalent to the flying broom as such. There were a few special items, but they were legendary and used by individual gods, god champions/killers and demons. I believe that there was things like ninja using kites in the night to get past guards and to the tops of tall structures. 2. Unfortunately, I can't help much with this other than to say that there likely is a god like you have asked for because they have gods for things like poetry and crafting. 3. I think that if you add another mythological weapon it should go to someone else. What Harry needs is more practice with his weapon and powers to make him better at using them so that you don't have to just give him something new to get by with. I think what he needs is to use Ddraig mentally to get in that practice, but not really to use him for much else. In fact, I think you should start on the Koneko becoming protective and possessive of Ddraig or maybe start giving Issei a chance to start reconnecting. 4. I think that the Lily calling Rias mum thing would be fine, it is just picking how to get it started because the comfort levels are already fine and I can't see it getting put off very long. I think you can avoid Rias thinking that Lily should call her mum entirely because of both her age and her being used to caring for her peerage with everyone calling her by name of title. You could have a Lily doing the super shy little girl thing and ask if she can call Rias mum routine, but you would have to give a bit of a lead so that it would make sense for Lily to be less than her usual outgoing self. You could do the slip of the tongue routine. Or you could do one of those complete stranger commenting on how cute Rias' daughter is leading to Lily not having to be so shy in asking if she should/could call Rias mum now bits. Like I said, just a matter of how. Anything Goes Game Changer: I think that if you are as close to finishing it as you seem to think you are, then you should go with the option that will let you complete the work. Endings can often be hard, and I think your advertising that it is almost over has people not wanting to see it done, even if only subconsciously. I know that the polls give you direction and focus, but sometimes you need to do things for yourself. A Third Path: 1. This is difficult because it becomes a question of which could be allied with. I'm not sure that it could be made believable to ally with the Skrull at all both because of their culture and recent events and human reaction. The Shi'ar are difficult because they tend to assimilate cultures and worlds into their empire, not ally with them, so you would have to find a way to get to upper echelons of the Shi'ar to go against standard procedure and their egos. 2. I'm having trouble picking for this because I find it hard to picture Piotr or Steve with a sword. Piotr has that noble conscience thing which makes a poison sword hard to swallow for him, though I think he could be made to incorporate a sword into his style more readily. Steve is much more the modern soldier, so I see guns and knives more than swords even with the shield, but I think he would have less trouble with the poison aspect. If I had to choose between the two I would say Piotr, but I think you could also come up with some other ideas on who Harry could give it to, or think up some other ideas for a different use entirely. 3. As much as I want to say that it would be a style choice, I think that you can't go with a barely touched approach, but you can avoid going into minutia by making it about what was unique about each wedding, and focus on the thoughts and feelings of Harry and his Ladies and maybe a few others. Making Waves:

frank schellingerhout

think lilly should call rias mom as for the sword give it to the russian he needs a little boost

link01742

Third Path Wedding hell yes I am a slut for that kind of fluff, my god it would be beautiful!

David P.

FILFY #4: Yes. It would be absolutely precious. Third Path #3: One wedding will be fine. Making Waves #’s 1&2: Yes to Seliah, no to Juvia. It seems counterproductive to me to drop Bisca only to immediately fill the slot with someone new. I thought the final goal was for Ranma to settle with 1-2 ladies.

Rumil's Apprentice

FILFy 1. Nothing I know or could find. The Chinese do have the flying cloud thing (eg. the nimbus from DB). In HP canon, Japanese students at Mahoutokoro "are flown back and forth to their homes every day on the backs of a flock of giant storm petrels." 2. I would say Brigit (or Brigid) is closest. The Irish/Celtic/Welsh/Scottish didn't give as much prominence to the concepts of hearth and home as the Greeks and Romans did with Hestia and Vesta. Brigit is considered a "fiery" goddess. Her main domains were healing, springtime, fertility, and smithcraft. She was one of the most popular goddesses to worship in her various Irish, Welsh, and Scottish aspects across the Isles. She was even turned into a Christian Saint. However, some things I've read do say that she was the hearth goddess. In the AU, you can easily slide hearth, home, and family into Brigit's domains. Plus, she fits perfectly with what you've already written. Her masquerading as a phoenix (domains of healing, fire, and Spring/renewal), and her inspiration to Kalawarner to forge/enchant armor and weapons (domain of smithy). 3. If you plan on more involvement from their patron goddess, then it might make sense for her to start testing and rewarding other members of the clan/family. Harry already has already received two gifts/rewards from her. Maybe start with the with Shirone and Yubelluna during the summer trip to Britain and Ireland. The challenge from a character perspective is that no one actually likes or is friends with Ddraig yet. Maybe you can continue the mini-plot where Harry accessed Balance Breaker to build more trust between the two. This may require other power-ups or items of power to go to Harry in the future so that he doesn't need Ddraig anymore and willing passes it to Lily. 4. It's a bit too early. I think you should either wait until they are officially engaged/betrothed or married. Especially for children, the formal ceremonies push us to let go of the past and make the mental switch. Or, have an event or series of events that bond Lily and Rias closer as mother and daughter. Perhaps including a confrontation in England during the summer. Also, it may be useful for Harry to have a conversation with Lily about the Blessing he gave her with Fawkes/goddess's help. Lily is not really a magical human/phoenix werewolf anymore- she's pretty much a demigod and has more in common now with Rias than Ginny. A Third Path: 1. I'm not the biggest expert in this part of Marvel lore, but I feel like the Shi'ar at least have elements or factions of their society which aren't fully evil, bigoted, or despotic. The Shi'ar seem more redeemable, or at least agreeable, based on canon. And I think the Shi'ar can mate with humans. In canon, the X-men had a lot of plot lines with the Shi'ar, as both allies, family, rivals, and enemies. I think there would be more interesting things to write about than with the Skrull. 2. Steve. Steve is more a Gryffindor than Piotr. While exceedingly loyal and hard-working, Steve's strongest qualities are his bravery, honor, valor, and moral code. Those are classic Gryffindor traits. Piotr is a more well round mix of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw. Also, Steve would be badass with the occasional sword and shield combo. Piotr is much more a hand-to-hand and grappling fighter. 3. I think you have the right of it. Ororo and Emma seem to want small weddings, that are mostly family and close friends. There's no need to give them lots of word count. The characters themselves would be unhappy with you. Hela's will definitely be far more important- a royal wedding and political event. Hopefully her original family will be able to attend or participate in person.

TheLazyShadow

ATP: I’d like for them to side with Skrulls it could add a different take to secret wars, The sword should go to the one less likely to die if they made a mistake with it and I would be fine if you couldn’t give all the wedding equal focus as long as there mention of them all happening. MK: Seilah is cool, but unless you find a way to make her willingness to throw her hat in the ring Juvia would feel like your adding her for the sack of adding her and lastly yeah they where all OP.

FitzThrawn

FILFy 2. The Iron Druid books might be a good resource for Tuatha De Danaan info, since the main character is a Druid who worships them and interests with them. I think someone else mentioned Brighid as being the closest thing to a hearth and home goddess. The also mention and use a lot of Irish weapons. 4. I don't think it's too soon, but I feel like it slipping out in a moment of stress (like a confrontation with the Weaselys) or a relaxed falling asleep with just Rias and Harry watching anime one night, followed with a couple discussions about it. ATP 1. Depends on what you want to use them for. I think the Skrull homeworld gotten eaten by Galactus at one point so you could have a few as refugees (ala Captain Marvel) or the Shi'ar for their ships and imperial gaurd as high combat units. The Skrulls don't really have an equivalent force (not counting the handful of super Skrulls) but they could be spies or undercover bodyguards. 2. I think Piotr (or Kurt) would be ideal since Steve already has a well developed fighting style, but Piotr can just tank the hits to get closer in while Kurt go use the sword to further weaponize his teleportation. 3. Not super important, but I also don't think they should be completely glossed over. Maybe give them as much focus as the involved characters would want, a lot for Jean, minimal for Emma, etc.

Readm

Im skipping FILFY as I don’t read that one I really like AGGC and I would personally like you to focus on it until its done A Third Path 1. I vote Shi’ar as in the comics they are actual allies of earth. Alsofor me personally as a person who read the comics I don’t like the kree and that whole thing in the Mrs Marvel movie was stupid. 2. I vote Steve 3. I personally wouldn’t read all those weddings if you did write themed skip past them until the story started again 1 is plenty. Im pretty sure you know my opinions on Making Waves but just to be sure 1. I don’t mind Seliah as a character at this point and I can even get why Ranma is attracted to her. I personally don’t support her inclusion into the harem as I believe that 3 is the limit and I like Juvia more than Seliah and you made it clear that you plan on adding Jenny. Also I cant see her being sad if she was just left I her dream bookstore not traveling and adventuring with ranma. 2. I WANT JUVIA she deserves this 3. I personally liked the inclusion of the Alvarez empire and the only 1 I felt was just stupid OP was Neinhart as his History of the dead magic made no sense and shouldn’t have been possible under the rules of magic as they had been explained up to that point. I also didnt like Bloodman as his existance didn’t make sense he was literally a fusion of the powers of all the members of Tartarus but he was still weaker than Mard Geer and when and why he was created isn’t well explained but we know he was created after Natsu. But everyone else made sense and I would be happy if you did it better.

AC DC 1C 2C

Filfy 2) An old Tabletop RPG I liked when i was in Highschool called Scion (best way i can describe it is World of Darkness meets Percy Jackson as a Tabletop) described a few of the Tuath DE Dannad, and I can think of three that have aspects of what you're asking for One is DIan Cecht who is a god of healing and crafting, basically an embodiment of the idea of a wise elder who teaches and nurtures the next generation. The other, and better fit in my opinion, is Anu Danand, who is kinda like a mix of Hera and Hestia. with a touch Demeter mixed in. Mother Goddess of the pantheon, protector of the home, nurturer of the young, blesser of the harvest. Very much the image of the stern but loving mother who sometimes gets fed up with her overly rambunctious children.

FILFy 1) Well for Chinese it could be swords. Not sure how well accepted it would be in Japan. Otherwise unless I seriously mixed it up there were some Clouds used for flying but often it's via helps of some 'creature' or its body parts. Can't think of anything else at the moment. 2) Not sure if they have such a nice god amongh that pantheon :-D At best it could be "one face" of said god as they often stood for bozh sides such as Dagda standing for both life and death. Honestly the closest may be either Lugh who is their sun god along with harvest and crafts + arts, but also known as a great warrior. Or maybe even better would be Brigid who is goddess of fertility (and bred animals, blacksmithing, harvest as well, prophecy and who knows what else). She was also used by Christianity and made into mortal. This could influence the fact that she seems like a nicer goddess than most of said pantheon. Not that they're evil or anything. Just go both ways :) 3) That's really depends on what kind of weapon it would be and how they would gain it. Anything works for me. 4) I think it could slip her but probably some further specific 1 on 1 bonding or even some stressful event (where she will find safety/happiness thanks to Rias) is needed for Lily to call her mum full time. Or she can wait till the wedding :-P "So are you now my mum for real?" :-D AGGG 1) I understand why you're making us choose and I bet a lot of people appreciate and find it fair. For me I admit to beign glad to have some influence as well but I also think that which of your muse is strongest should be followed and won't mind losing my vote because of this reason. If you both see it ending and want to write it go ahead ;-) Third Path 1) Uh... talk about choices O_o What happened to Nova Empire? As for me it's the only choice from the empires that matters :-D I guess I could see some 'alliance' working with Skrull as they seems more pragmatic. But of course they would be preparing to screw the other side over the whole time. With Shi'ar a change of leadership would be needed and make the new Emperor/Empress grateful to Earth or at least Harry (team) personally. 2) Heh, Captain America with both shield and sword? :-D And Colossus cut himself with said sword without exerting a lot of force? Both choices hold quite a big appeal... But honestly it goes down to the question who is more okay with killing his opponents... And neither of them like to do so. Captain got more experience but Piotr is influenced by Harry enough not to shirk this dute when truly needed. Heh, guess I got advantage here, as I don't have to make this decision :-D 3) I don't think you need to spent a lot of time on weddings but they should be all described to at least some extent. So no need for extra details about which kind of lace is each guest using but enough description so we get the picture. You can change the tenses or how it's going to be described. I can see for example Emma wedding being told to your readers via some characters conversation after the event. But no glossing over if you wish to mantain balance of all wifes ;) 4) I like her. Looking forward to the process of making her even more human and also her finding out how powerful she could, in fact be, even against other demons. I think her getting together with Ranma is only possibly limited by others interested gals but that shouldn't be stopping factor unless Ranma and said girl(s) is already serious about each other. 2) Rooting for Juvia all the way! You can get rid of Erza if you have too many females around him :-P :-D Honestly she should finally find someone who both respect her and return the feelings. She may not even end up being so obsessive about it, at least we didn't see it so far so nothing really stopping it unless the number is too big... Guess it also depends on Jenny and what her next plan is going to be, now that she lost modeling. Still for me it's Juvia & Seilah >= Jenny (& Aquarius! :-D ) >> Erza. And only because your version of said redhead is not so bad ;) 3) It was weird powerscaling. The first mage, not even one of the main ones was just plain superb. How he managed to block half the FT guild members magic was awesomely done. Then it was even topped even if I till this day have no idea where did Brandish get such powerful magic powers.. But then it seemed either gimmicky or plain weird and the crazy gap suddenly wasn't so prominent. Still there are lot of powerful opponents in Alvarez and if Ranma is now going to be so powerful you kind of need opponents of such calibre. PS: Sorry about typos or weird sentences. Too late into the night and written too fast without checking. I wish you luck in comprehending :-D

FILFy: 1. No idea. I would think a paper construct would be the most stereotypical though. 2. I don't think so, though that is mainly based on my reading of the Scion rulebook. The closest there is Danu, the primal mother and guardian of living creatures and fertile soil. She is able to know where everyone is on Irish soil and guards the island fanatically. 3. Again from Scion, The Spear of Lugh with the superheated head that drips blood and burns houses (and can hurl ice or lightning) would be an interesting weapon. In general, I think having Harry move to his pantheon's weapons would be good if you want him to act more like the Irish pantheon (vain, beauty over all, with distinct honor codes) but I think sharing the ancient superweapon love would fit his current character more. Possibly a relic of Brigid for either Tonks or Kalawarner. She was the goddess for the fire of inspiration and smithing. 4. I think if done intentionally (what should I call you? Mum?) or a conscious choice; no. If done in a subconscious slip; yeah. Anything Goes Game Changer: I would be fine with that. A Third Path: 1. Both have problems, both have history with earth, and both have massive fleets to smash against each other... I think if Harry and co. figure out the history of the Dire Wraiths they should ally with the Shi'ar. But if they don't, well, they are already known to the Skrull and it would be easy to contact them. 2. I don't think Piotr would like the morality of a poisoned weapon, and though your Steve Rogers is more military man than moral absolute I think even he might bawk. Either having it as an heirloom to pass to his grandchildren or given to Einzahl (flying sword of death!) would be my suggestion. 3, If the wedding is interrupted or used as a foil for backroom dealings I can see it being a scene or three, but even with those enticements I think the weddings can be condensed.

Udodelig Urningin

Depends on the lore you want: in the live action avengers/agents of shield the inhumans were created by the Kree. In the comic lore I have read the inhumans, the eternals, and the mutants were created by the Celestials. hooray for a cannon that alters itself based on who wrote on what day!

Milandaanza

I admit i'm a bit behind on making waves and don't read ATP/Filfty, so i'll mainly post about AGCC and in this case yes. Please finish it. <3

Treant Balewood

Anything Goes Game Changer: Full support let's see this to its end Making Waves: 1.Yes I like her and full support to romancing her 2.I kinda like the idea for Juvia as well but at this point I could be parted from it 3.I dunno at least alittle, I'm more than willing to trust you judgment on this tho

Novus

Filfy: As usual, I don't read this one so no opinion. Anything Goes Game Changer: I don't know about everyone else, but I lost interest in this one completely precisely BECAUSE you've said it is almost done. To me, the story feels like it's barely even gotten started, and I just can't envision anyway it could be wrapped up quickly that would be satisfying. The relationships are still shallow and uncertain, the sekirei plan is still far from being derailed, etc. Still, if it's bugging you so much then do whatever you need to do. A Third Path: 1. Skrull/Shi'ar: Unless you're going to warp the core of one of their societies, I don't think either of them COULD be allied with. Not by a single system power. Both of them in Earth 616 control their entire home Galaxies. And at least in the Shi'ar case, they control multiple additional galaxies in their entirety, I think. Worse, both also have cultural imperatives to bring other worlds into their empire. It's part of the Shi'ar's religion, and indoctrinated as the duty for the Skrull to bring peace by conquering everything. If you ARE going to warp one or the other to the point that they'd consider it, for some reason, I'd go with the Shi'ar though, definitely. They're more open to diplomacy...and they MIGHT accept an outside single-world alliance simply providing tribute in the form of elite fighters for their Imperial Guard. Particularly if they're convinced trying to take on Earth would put them at odd with the Phoenix Force. More to the point, if you work the timelines right, their Princess/Empress (depending on time frame) can have already had positive contact (or you could show that positive contact) with Charles Xavier. 2. Sword of Gryfindor: Ehhhhhh, honestly I'm having a hard time picturing either of them using it. Poison doesn't seem like something Steve would be comfortable with and it just doesn't fit Pitor's style very well. If they're the only two choices, though, pitor makes more sense. His metallic skin would probably protect him from accidently getting nicked in combat and killing himself with it. 3, Weddings: For the sake of all that is holy and a few things that probably aren't, please keep the wedding content down to a bare minimum -_-. Descriptions of weddings tend to be very boring, and far too much tell instead of show, unless they're gate-crashed, and anyone gate crashing any of those weddings would be so epically dead it would be more comedy than anything. Making Waves: 1. Seilah: I think your version of her is actually among the most interesting characters you've currently got going. I'm quite happy with her inclusion and like the idea of her and Ranma getting together, even to the exclusion of some of the others if you couldn't write them to be comfortable with her. 2. Juvia: Hmm...I hadn't really considered her as even being in the running, based on their interactions. But I'm all for it...IF she could get over her issues with Seilah, since Seilah is more interesting... 3. Alvarez: I'm afraid I never got that far in the series, so I have no idea.

Gappler

AGGC: go for it, i enjoy it so i would be happy to see it finished. Making Waves: seilah i could see going in for a fling, but probably turning off Ranma for a lack of emotional attachment after. Juvia would be interesting, but i would almost expect her to mess around with ranma a bit regarding his curse as he could activate it with any unguarded touch. Her continuing with flirting in this way would probably irk Erza and catch Ranma off guard which would probably make it fun for her until Ranma asked her to stop. Such actions would also probably drive home to the Erza that she would probably need to become comfortable with Ranma's female form and being intimate despite similar appearances. As to Jenny, while I like her, I dont much see where things are going there yet, so hard to say. Sure Ranma will be a huge boost to her moral after getting dropped as a model, but I cant really see where she is going from here yet. That said, she is currently probably the most accepting of all of Ranma so she kinda gets a pass. Alvarez: I could see you just needing to boost things up on the enemies side more, with them knowing that Ranma is there and a legitimate threat to them. In the manga, they dont really see any of fairy tale as a real threat. HP storries: i dont read as i only care about ranma enough to read fanfiction about it.

Wesley

FILFY: Replace Ddraig. I don’t think Harry’s relationship with Ddraig or the power he brings is utilized in creative enough ways to make reading scenes with the two of them in it interesting enough to read. The idea that Ddraig only doubles power is kinda boring. And without changing Ddraig’s character to be more of a classical dragon than a bored immortal prison inmate or letting Ddraig play off Issei’s perversion, his personality is kinda boring too. Maybe replace him with something from Scathatch. The literal immortal godslayer that just never died at any point in Irish mythology that kills gods and gave Cu Chulainn his spear from the bone of the corpse of a beast she killed. She only used one bone for that, surely she could have made something else from it in the intervening centuries? Game Changer: FINISH HIM! A Third Path: I think that Piotr would be the best option to give the sword to, due to the fact that if he is in a fight (where he would using the thing), he is made of metal, and thus not capable of being subject to the whole “My two edged sword replicates the effects of basilisk venom, thus if the sword is ever pushed back far enough to cut me I will die” thing. As for the alliance thing, that’s a tough choice. Harry has had poor interactions with the Skrull thus far and there is still the possibility of them puppet throning Russia, but the Shi’ar have been known to eat sentient races that they think might taste good. Bad decisions all around. Which I think will be hilarious by the way. But, at days end. I think the Skrull are actually the more moral choice to ally with, if only because their actions can be seen as those of a government sponsored infiltration unit as opposed to the Shi’ar, who encountered a sentient race that could have been made a protectorate state, but was instead eaten to the last because one guy got curious as to how they tasted, ate one, and kick started an extinction event based around a dinner table. Finally, Weddings. Do Emma’s. Make jokes/references later about Jean’s being a shotgun wedding with freaky tentacle trees instead of a gun (Or... for that one... you could hold it in a collective mindscape/mental plane and make it freaky and humorous as the setting changes based onwhat the attendees are thinking about and include a chaotic infant mind mucking up the works along the way). And breeze through Ororo’s as a sunset thing on the plains. Hela’s though...? That will require a fleshed out scene because she would demand a Norse style royal wedding as she is the queen of the Norse realm of the dishonored dead, while she sees Harry as the young King of (the Savage Lands? Asteroid bases? A small patch of dirt in Britain? Or has the Israel Initiative gotten off the ground while I was playing catch up?) his in progress space nation.

Forgottenone

FILFy 4 +1 for mother daughter combo. MW1 Yes glad she joined however I do think she should have problems latter on as non human habit come out and cause trouble. As far as Her and Ranma go she has to stay with him 24/7 or everyone will come after her. Also I see her exploring what in her books. Plus she not human and is a demon with who know what morals or lack of them. 2 Juvia is a character that got kicked to the curb. She is a S class mage that never really gets stronger ever...hell I say she get weaker after she stop being a enemy. That said she a great judge of character as her only friend in her last guild was a nice person dddeep down in his metal heart. She has common ground with Ranma as both are water mages. I can see that being the spark that set them off. That said I also see her causing rifts as she has a active imagination and act on it somewhat. That said what I see her wanting even in your story is someone who not scared of her and is honest to her. So as long as Ranma cares for her I see her coming back two, twelve and even five hundred times to get what she wants. On that note the way Juvia Lockser acted in cannon towards Grey mean she is 100% mistress material. Final note Juvia and Ranma make a scary combo team. 3 Yes They were OP on that Zeref made sure they were OP as he wanted to WIN! Some people I feel forget that if the final boss idiot did not drag all the dragon slayers into his mind were he was his weakest form they would have all DIED in cannon. Honestly I felt like the author got forced to change his story by his editors. Yes that happens way more then they admit as bleach was going to have guns instead of swords. I mean three of twelve look like they were willing to split off and help save fairy tail, however editors came in and told him fairy tail has to win on its own. We never really saw E.N.D. true power at alllllllll. Lets be real the Empire taught all of its mages and they didn't let dark guilds exist. Were Ishgar let kids with high magic get taken by brain, random mage guilds of different levels of skill, or killed or driven out as what happened with the Stratuss Family. Yes it was OP as four of the twelve came from Ishgar! Then I feel editors happened and ruined the story. I feel that they will have to come into play if you really want to kill idiot final boss without him being a moron as in cannon.

Slider

FILFY: 2. Unfortunately the best fit for the hearth goddess is Brigid but I know you already have plans for her. A few secondary options if you're able to flex a bit would be: Ernmas, a mother goddess; Airmed, pretty much THE herbalism/healing using herbs person; Bé Chuille, a really good sorceress. Other than that, I'm not too sure of who would be good options though you could probably work The Dagda in if you squint. He's technically sorta like their version of Odin before Brigid came along but he was a manly guy and he was also associated with fertility and agriculture too. 3. While I enjoy seeing Harry wreck stuff with Ddraig, it would be cool to have Draig be a bit more permanently bonded, either to Koneko or Lily. If you bring in a new Irish weapon it could be one of their famous treasures like Cu Chulainn's Gae Bolg or Claíomh Solais (Sword of Light/Shining Sword). The later is basically Excalibur for all intents and purposes. Lugh's Spear is honestly a bit too bloodthirsty of a weapon for Harry personally I think based on it's legend. 4. I would that yes, it is probably time for Lily to call Rias Mum. It seems like she's basically felt that way for a while now so it would fit in well with the story and for all intents and purposes, Harry and Rias are magically married anyway so... AGGC: If you are that close to finishing it, I would support this. ATP: 1. While I haven't really dived into this story yet, my instinct says the Shi'ar. If only because only the Captain Marvel movie has really made the Skrulls anything but the annoying bad guys and the Shi'ar seem more interesting as long as they avoid pissing off the Phoenix Force. 2. Steve. Definitely Steve. 3, Mild summaries should probably be fine if you aren't fully committed to the scenes I'd think.

Woolleymammoth

FILFY: 2. Bright is the closest to a Deity of Hearth of the Irish/Scottish pantheons 3. I am still liking the idea of Ddraig going to Lily like he wants. As for a weapon for Harry. There are many that he can be given and the question becomes how your unique ideas come up with its power and interpretation. Caladbolg which is said to be powerful, Caledfwlch which is sometimes the welsh version of Excalibur but sometimes different. Claíomh Solais (Sword of Light), the sword of Nuada Airgeadlámh. The sword glowed with the light of the sun and was irresistible in battle, having the power to cut his enemies in half. Moralltach (also Morallta), a sword given to Diarmuid Ua Duibhne by his father Aengus, which left no stroke or blow unfinished at the first trial. Gáe Buide (Yellow Shaft), a yellow spear that can inflict wounds from which none could recover. The spear of Diarmuid Ua Duibhne, given to him by Aengus. Gáe Bulg, the spear of Cú Chulainn, that sword would always pierce its target. Gae Assail (Spear of Assal), the spear of Lugh, the incantation "Ibar (Yew)" made the cast always hit its mark, and "Athibar (Re-Yew)" caused the spear to return. Gáe Derg (Red Javelin), the red spear of Diarmuid Ua Duibhne, given to him by Aengus. In mythology, it does not nullify magic, unlike some fiction might say. Lúin of Celtchar, the name of a long, fiery lance or spear belonging to Celtchar mac Uthechar and wielded by other heroes, such as Dubthach, Mac Cécht and Fedlimid. Spear of Lugh, Lugh had no need to wield the spear himself. It was alive and thirsted for blood that only by steeping its head in a sleeping-draught of pounded fresh poppy seeds could it be kept at rest. When battle was near, it was drawn out; then it roared and struggled against its thongs, fire flashed from it, and it tore through the ranks of the enemy once slipped from the leash, never tired of slaying. Don’t forget that according to DXD canon, Lugh is one of the top ten strongest beings, Harry finding him and being gifted the weapon and advice(maybe training) would be awesome. 4. I think it can be time, I think Ginny hearing this could set her off. Of if you have them go back to England and Ginny kidnapped Lily, when Rias saves Lily she calls her mom for the first time. It’s all up to what you have planned! A Third Path to the Future: 1. I kinda wish that the Nova Corp would ally with. 2. I think that unless the sword grows it is nothing more than toothpick in pitors hands, and it doesn’t fit Steve Rogers. Might end up giving it to Emma so she has a weapon for when she uses her diamond form? 3. I think if you make the weddings different enough, each should be written. Especially with Emma’s sister maybe brought into the fold, or having Ororos in the city her and Harry went to in Africa.

Kariston Draconis

AGGC: By all means make it a permanent focus until it's finished. I don't see how anyone could reasonably object to getting it done and dusted so you have more time to focus on other stories. Making Waves: 1. I like what you're doing with Seilah, and I don't have a problem with you hooking her up with Ranma. Heck, there's even precedent for turning an Etherious into a human. 2. Juvia, ditto. I'm all for Gruvia in the main series, but given the changes you've made that's not gonna work this time around, plus their powers easily compliment each other, so go for it. 3. Alvarez did suffer from a bit of DBZesque power creep, sure, but it's still pretty integral to the main plot, plus you've already set it up somewhat, can't exactly ignore it at this point.

Aaron Hardin

Filfy: there is a Japanese equivalent to brooms in oars (think Botan in Yu Yu Hakusho). A Third Path: weddings do nothing for me on their own! If there is plot relevance other that the whole married part, it can be useful but I think the people who like reading weddings are reading different genres that your fan fiction to begin with. Making Waves: Seliah as you have written her is awesome, and seeing Juvia’s Change in attitude to her over time could be interesting. Irene and Zeref are the only characters that matter in Alvarez, other than the fact that conflict with Alvarez exists (you already established this), as long as those characters show up you can do whatever you want.

GreedOnGreed

FILFI 1. I think they mostly use evocations 2. The only one is Brigid: 'a triple goddess of Fire, Poetry and Forge. It was "Christianized" in the figure of Saint Brigitta. Perpetual fires were kept lit for her, and it was forbidden to have them put out. The Brigitta Cross (a cross with three or four arms, made of interwoven straws) was hung in the center of the house, and its blessing was invoked while something was being forged, while it was being cooked, and while doing any other activity connected with the fire. It is also a goddess of fertility, as it assists people and animals during birth; in Christian symbolism it is identified with the midwife of Christ. The Imbolc party is dedicated to her, and tradition says to leave some clothes outside the back door of the house, so that she can touch them and bless them as she makes her journey through the night 3. Give the weapon to someone else and have him hold Draig until he can adapt to his power 4. It's early to call her mom, perhaps after yet another fracture with Ginny AGC All right ATP 1. Skrull, but only a temporary ceasefire 2. Piotr 3. Avoid describing them too much in detail, flying over parts of marriages showing them as news of journalists MW 1. yes 2. No 3. I don't know

Eleets

A third path: 1. Sorry I don't know enough about either to make that determination... That being said on the topic of future fights though I thought I'd ask a question/give a comment. Are you going to have a point in the story where Harry recieves a devistating blow and actually have him deal with a loss of some kind? Kind of like infinity wars? As I was rereading the story I just noticed that he is on par with a number of the higher order gods and yet has none of their restrictions. Over the course of a million plus words we have read about Harry becoming more powerful and more infuential and attaining multiple incredible women it's kind of like a constant upper. At this point in order to bring the character back down to Earth I can only really see it going one of three ways. One: One of Harry's wives getting killed. Two: Most of the Custodes dieing because Harry cabnot save them. Three: The Earth and it's inhabitants all dieing leaving Harry, his teams, and the EDF to build anew on a new planet. Anyways enough of my blathering. 2. It would depend on the sword if it's the one from the movies I don't think it would suit either but if your going more for a broadsword then I'd go with Piotr. CA with a circular shield and his whole patriotic schtick just doesn't really scream midevil weapon. 3. Gloss over them although I would have highlighted Ororos more so than Jean's just based on the characterization you have given them I see Ororos wedding being highly ceremonial (considering her patron goddess is actually involved with her life moreso than the Phoenix Force) and public. Just my two cents... Thanks for writing

Heinan

Anything Game Changer: Finish it

Heinan

Making Waves: 1. I like what you have done with Selia till now and would like to see her with Ranma. 2. As for Julia I have no problem if she jions the race to Ranmas heart. If she should get together with Ranma at the end should be open for now.

Razgriz0x

FILFy: 1- "The Hagoromo (Feathered Dress) is a colored or feathered kimono of the Tennin (Angels). Tennin are unable to fly without these Kimonos and thus will be unable to return to Heaven." This is the Wikipedia blurb. thought it would have a nice tie-in to the story. Maybe the Angels of Heaven gifted the knowledge to an Omyouji Family for services rendered or saving an angels life... or maybe the Omyouji stole/found/reverse-engineered an equivalent. 2- Brighid. Her Mantle (cloak) could be gifted to Yubelluna to boost her powers... and I agree with Rumil's Apprentice on her masquerading as Fawkes. 3- I would like to see an artifact or weapon find its way to Yubelluna. As she's no longer a devil, she could use an item to boost her in combat. Harry may not use Ddraig often, but to just stop using him after achieving Balance Breaker would be a huge waste of plot/character development that has progressed so far. 4- Maybe a certain War-Crow gets the upperhand on Harry by holding Lily hostage... but Rias rescues her (allowing Harry to show K his place) and Lily slips Mum out when she embraces Rias in relief. AGGC: Your call. I would love to see this finish soon. If it's going to take the place of the 2nd short story for the next couple months until done, I'm sure only the most annoying and idiotic readers will bitch about it. ATP: 1- Ally with Sh'iar. Galactus can have the Skrull. While this would free up the Kree to focus on Earth, the Alliance with the Sh'iar should hold them at bay if not outright bring them to ceasefire... I'm not sure if taking the fight to the Kree would be necessary after Allying with another power though. 2- Piotr. Rogers doesn't have the training for swordplay, he's mainly a hand-to-hand, shielder and firearms user. Piotr could use it... if it were to reshape itself to fit his size. (Buster Sword from FF7?). Also, a better candidate may be Kurt as it fits his fighting style and abilities. 3- Jean's wedding should be detailed... but small, short and extremely fluff. Ororo's wedding while massive, should touch on outfits, atmosphere, venue... but vaguer on the details. Emma and Hela should be... not glossed over but give just enough to show Harry loving them each separately in his own way, and the girls' reactions and feelings during the event (KISS method here, Keep It Simple Stupid) MW: 1- Love Seilah, definite member please. her needs are simple and she's subservient to the others (at least in the romance dpt.). 2- Love Juvia, add her to the group. Her water abilities would do more to compliment Ranma than possibly any other character. Plus, it seems Ranma does have a type of Girl he likes... BUSTY. Erza, Jenny, Seilah and Juvia are all Busty, Thicc and Gorgeous. They are also Smart, Powerful and willing to put up with Ranma. I could see Juvia and Seilah talking through any issues they may have with each other. 3- If they're OP, why have them as anything other than something to aspire too surpass? Maybe FT and Ranma aren't ready for Alvarez... but that doesn't mean they can't ever be. If you feel that they were created due to Lazy writing or the author just throwing something together just to keep the story going, don't let that influence you. Alvarez could be a great addition to this story if its done right... we already have a bad-guy guild in Tartarus... do we want to add another just because? Or will Alvarez step in when rumors of Zeref's return become too widespread that they seek allies (FT and Ranma) to help ensure that any great calamity is averted?

Razgriz0x

Once you pointed out Brighid possibly being a Pheonix (Fawkes) it all makes sense. And maybe, just maybe she could give Harry her mantle for Yubelluna to use.

Rumil's Apprentice

Yes. And also her veneration as a saint could partially explain how she survived when most of her pantheon did not.

Druid

AGGC: I think would be worth it to see it finished.

Druid

ATP and the sword: I think Steve should have it. While not in Mjolnir's class, the sword is still something the deems those as worth to use it, and I think Steve would be awesome for the role.

Lucien Dauntes

I definitely think you should work on AGGC until you feel happy with it, I've always liked that story. :)

Bob

ATP--I think that the weddings should be kept to a minimun.

Stremse

AGGC: I think you should work at getting it done. ATP: Weddings in comics universes rarely end well. Unless you have a plot important reason for doing so, I say leave it out.

Stephen Foltz jr

I would wait a few more chapters before Lily starts calling Rais Mom. For Filfy the goddess your looking for is Called Brigit. Goddess of Hearth, Wisdom, and Poetry. Sounds like to one girl from Overwatch. Also the Onmyouji mainly use Shikigami to get around if they needed to fly, normal in the form of a large flying animal. And if you want to give Harry another weapon from Irish legend/myth Fate/Grand Order has a few you can use from that area.

Stephen Foltz jr

For AGGC go ahead with your idea it will help out in the long run by reducing what you have to research and reread each month. This will help you have more time for writing and doing other important stuff in your life.

Stephen Foltz jr

For A Third Path the Shi'ar are who i'm going for because the Skull have show time and time again that they can not be trusted when given the chance to prove themselves even thou there are a few exceptions in their race. as for the Sword; Rogers would benefit more from it having the most martial training out of the both of them. Plus he needs more options other than his shield and his enhancements. Piotr is a walking tank and has more options by himself than Rogers has.

Stephen Foltz jr

As for Third Path weddings Kept the The KISS method of doing things and don't over work yourself.

Stephen Foltz jr

As for Making Waves i will trust your judgement because im not caught up with it yet so i can't offer a constructive opinion. Good luck with your Stories and thank you for all your hard work.

Patrick Rice

For the weddings in Third Path, I agree with Stephen. I do not see the need to rehash 4 elaborate wedding ceremonies. I like the idea of Steve with the Sword of Gryffindor, to go with the shield, but since the shield is a very effective offiensive, Pitor could cretainly use an edged weapon to go with his smashing ability. Final Vote would be Pitor. for the other question I have always been a bigger fan of the Shi'ar and give them the vote.

Anything Goes Game Changer: I do not only have a problem with it, I want that to be so that you remove, until AGGC done, the second option. Making Waves: Answered already via email.

Making Waves: Juvia is one of my favorite characters in Fairy tail, so I'm definitely in favor of her inclusion especially since she doesn't have her obsessive crush on Gray in this story. I like what you have done with Seilah and am perfectly happy with her being with Ranma. I would be very happy if you did not use the Alvarez characters. They are so ridiculously OP in comparison to the other mages that I agree the author was just trying to make a huge thing to end the series with. There is no reason that they could not have taken over most of Earthland with their lineup of power houses, and yet they never really do anything until the end of the series, just to make the finale more action packed.

Making Waves- Erza and Jenny are enough (triad sounds good for this one) AGGC- Sounds like a good idea, i've been voting for it each time

This is part of the problem. I want to keep the number of main characters and ladies down, so i can concentrate on their growth and romance like I Have in AGGC and HftF. But frankly, beyond Erza I am having trouble deciding what girl(s) to include. Hence my wanting to know opinions on the characters here. It seems though it hasn't helped, since most people have told me to include both Seilah and Juvia LOL. Think it will fall to me to make that choice, darn it. Ah well, an Author's work is never done.
