Prof gave Nayami better ideas for her term paper. Now I'm shall be calling it "The Wolves of Ragnarok and Tolkien: From Tyr vs. Fenriswolf to Frodo vs. Gollum.
Will include:
-mythos of Freki, Geri, Skoll, Hati
-mythos of Loki and his son, Fenrir, Fenrir's encounter with Tyr and the loss of Tyr's hand
-mythos of the wolves' impact on Ragnarok
-discussion of Grendel's mother as a wolvish creature, a mad sea-wolf
-expanding on the medieval theme of wolvishness and applying it to Siegmund and Sjinfoti during their time under the spell of the wolf skins
-culminating in the comparison of the wolvishness of Gollum, the loss of Frodo's finger, and the theme of controlling the dark part of ones shelf (the shadow; Loki is Odin's, Gollum is Frodo's)
Note, the mythos of the wolf in medieval literature is not favorable but they were also poorly informed back in those days.
Some horrible infecton of my mind has caused me to rethink Tom's "Fullmetal Yugioh" fanfiction into an actual dramatic and working story, involving Dante. If I actually do it, it will be a fusion since the only character from FMA that will actually make an appearance is Dante. I don't know what I will title it yet since Tom's title is of course his own. I'm keeping some of his choices for character roles since they were too awesome for roles but I'm changing up most of the storyline. Not quite sure how long it will be but I think I'll start out with drabbles to see if the idea is going to cooperate in any way. Probably going to take place in between Doma and AE arc, assuming Grand Prix never happened because that arc is dull anyway.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Yami no Yuugi AKA "Horus" (Horus is what Kaiba ends up calling him, I'll explain later)
Kinda Al but not really: Kaiba
Winry: Rebecca
Pinako: Professor Hawkins
Scar: Malik/Yami Malik
Flame Alchemist: Jou (because I can't think of who to make the other alchemists, let's just say they don't like hanging around Jou)
Hawkeye: Mai
Hughes: Shizuka (a much cooler Shizuka, mind you)
Havok but not really: Anzu
Armstrong: Honda (a much cooler Honda, mind you)
Lust: Otogi
Gluttony: Ryou Bakura
Envy: Noah
Sloth: Yugi
Wrath: Mokuba
Greed: Dartz (with Doma crew)
Pride: Pegasus
Izumi: Isis
Dante: herself
Yami Bakura: himself
Spirit Monsters for Alchemists/Sins
-Spirit Monsters is the equivalent of alchemy here; only certain people can summon them
-note, I want the Spirit Monsters to apply more to the sin they represent than the character so dont' mind if characters would never really play that card. this is an AU and I wanted to get all the big cards in
for Jou: Red Eyes Black Dragon
for Honda: Time Wizard
for Malik: Winged Dragon of Ra
for Kaiba: Blue Eyes White Dragon
for Yami/Horus: Black Magician of Chaos
for Isis: Obelisk the Tormentor
for Otogi: Harpie Ladies
for Bakura: Kuribo
for Noah: Black Magician Girl
for Yugi: Black Magician
for Mokuba: Ultimate Blue Eyes White Dragon
for Dartz: Osirus the Sky Dragon
for Pegasus: Blue Eyes Toon Dragon (i'm being ironic here)
Whoa! That took entirely too long. I have to clean dishes so I can go home.
