As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-Crossover Idea

Caution: 

     Since, unlike in this thread's cross-site sister threads — see the list further down in this post —, I can't add additional tags to this thread to denote which fandoms this involves so far, here those are:

  • Sword Art Online
  • Log Horizon
  • BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense
  • Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
  • Sailor Moon (The manga/Crystal timeline, with some elements from the original anime's alternate continuity.)

     I came up with this Sword Art Online OC-insert fusion multi-crossover idea:

https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea

This thread is for any discussion of it.

     (Marking this as 'CAUTION: Not Work-Safe:'

  • Should there end up being any bath scenes, which aren't out of the question.
  • Due to where one of this thread's cross-site sister threads — again, see the list further down in this post — is and how that's marked NSFW there — and how the other sister thread's marked the equivalent 'Mature' — for the same reason.)

Rules:

     Adapting a couple from QQ's Mu-Sensei's usual SAO fic ruleset:

  • Keep non-original characters in character.
  • This story does NOT run on porn logic.
  • That being said:
    • Given, at least partly, what happens to protagonist-kun-chan, some moments might turn out to be unavoidable.
    • This was originally posted on QQ; there might end up being lewding in the comments, at least over there.
  • Be civil and polite. Have your fun and let others have theirs, too; that's why we're here, after all.
  • The Tenth Pledge/Covenant applies.

     Oh, and please leave me a ping here if you leave any comments or feedback on the repository in issues and whatnot; GitLab's notifications implementation is quite sub-par, particularly in the web notifications department (where it's still non-existent,) compared to GitHub's.

how they'd write this if, entirely hypothetically, it were their fic…, but I'm not that crazy.

Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-…

     I'm seriously considering not having the Dark God Vector/Vecta in this continuity and just having 'lost children of Vector' just be 'lost children of Lunaria' instead. It's likely that Gabriel 'Subtilizer' Miller's also getting nerfed along with this, and nerfed hard. The power to see souls that drove he let drive himself to psychosis in canon? Yeah, that's not a thing here.

[Side note] See also: https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/28

     Moon goddess Lunaria's definitely not taking the Dark God Vector's role over here, though. Here are some notes I've made on one way she could get handled:

Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-…

     Open questions left after an initial draft of documentation for moon goddess Lunaria (commit-relative perma-link for the historical record:)

  • Is Lunaria, like one of my inspirations for this continuity's version of her in the Greco-Roman god Hermes, also:
    • A patron goddess of:
      • Sailors? (The moon controls the tides, after all.)
      • Thieves? (Probably more in the sense of the 'sneak' part of 'sneakthief,' as well as ninjas. Similarly, also espionage, infiltration, deception, guile, cunning, schemes, and stealth.)
    • A fertility goddess? (This could make sense, as women's menstrual cycles have historically sometimes been falsely attributed to the moon. She definitely wouldn't borrow Hermes's sometimes-referenced lascivious bent, however.)

Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-…

     Oh, and this doesn't mean Lunaria's the one responsible for the isekai-to-merged-game-world-made-real here, though maybe she notices it happening and smooths a few of any potential wrinkles with it out? I haven't really thought about that yet.

     Regarding project GitLab issue #51, I've come up with some ideas for what to name the young man of similar age from a separate timeline somewhat like ours whose consciousness subsumes Chiharuka's; see this comment on that issue. Some of them leave something to be desired, I suppose, so I may have to brainstorm some more.

     Oh, and the moment I decide on a name for him so I can drop this mouthful of a way to refer to him for good can't come soon enough.

Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-…

     Keying off of GitLab repository issue #52, 'Decide How 'Sword Art Online' Earth's Video Game (and General Pop Culture) History Might Differ/Be Altered Compared to the Timeline Somewhat Like Ours That the Young Man Whose Consciousness Subsumes Chiharuka's Comes/Came From:'

     So someone elsewhere on the Internet kept mentioning a video game alternate history fic called Player Two Start, and that got me thinking about other possible alternate video game history timelines:

  • What would video game history look like on Sword Art Online's Earth?
  • Suppose there was a timeline where Philips had as much technical expertise as Sony and won the contract for the SNES-CD that failed in our timeline; what would that look like?

Then things snowballed a little from there. Oops. …Soooo, uummm, I may have done something stupid. Even though I haven't read much of Player Two Start (at least not yet — it's looooooong, and I don't want to get lost in it right now —,) I went and posted the following:

And I'm not really qualified to build either of those out any further…, but I've kind of poked a toe down the rabbit hole of expanding at least the first of those anyway.
     Send help, please? (Only partly kidding there.)

     …Aaaaand doggone it: I made a bunch of commits to both the main repository and to Snippets using 'git commit -c' to help compose their commit messages and forgot to specify '--date=now' with any of them, so now several of my commits' author dates are wrong. Let's go see how hard that is to fix…

Re: Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion M…

     All right, I believe I've now fixed this in both the main repository and every Snippet with liberal use of:


git filter-repo --force --commit-callback '
  if commit.author_date != commit.committer_date:
    commit.author_date = commit.committer_date
'

On the other hand, that nobody mundane can remember Socié Whitale is a large part of the motivation from Misora Whitale's backstory behind why she was inspired to go on and fight to protect Mistgun as a 'wizard.'
    +      Here's one possible idea of how to work around this, though some of its details would still need working out: individuals lacking magical potential don't lose their memories of mages who've passed away, but Socié Whitale (and perhaps others) are still lost to Mistgun in one or more ways that makes it so said wizards can't return, at least not easily. This still keeps some of the essence of the situation from canon intact, if not all of its _particulars_: instead of Misora being upset with her father Gale for not being able to remember her mother/his wife Socié, Misora is instead upset that Gale knowingly admits that he can't do anything to help find Socié if she's still out there and has resigned himself to the knowledge of her status of 'missing, presumed dead.'
    +      Of course, the one question that this raises to leave open is why Socié's magic cannon sword, Radgrid, got located and returned to Mistgun, but not Socié herself. In any event, this leaves the possibility of Misora reuniting with her mothe. This would likely happen as part of exploration beyond Mistgun, as could be expected in a crossover, whether such was self-directed or incited by contact initiated when another party ended up there in or near the floating academy city.
    + - [Real Nua](https://kuusenmadoushikouhoseinokyoukan.fandom.com/wiki/Real_Nua) is perverse. I can see two possibilities here; either:
    +
    + - He's caught doing prohibited experiments with this project's continuity's counterpart of the series's canon 'Beetles' and ends up in jail, derailing events and butterflying his influence in them away completely.
    + - He witnessed something similar to his canon actions perpetrated by another individual somewhere else besides Mistgun before coming there and actually learned enough from said person's mistakes. This keeps him as an antagonist, albeit a more moderate one.
    +
    + Either way, he deserves nerfing of some form or another.
    + - Rico Flamel's still a narcissist with an inferiority complex (partly concerning her sister older Freon) who's deluded herself into thinking she's a goddess and declaring it for all to hear. If there's any way that Rico could get disabused of her foolish notions, then I might well like to hear it. (That sort of character development is certainly the kind that'd take longer, though.) Another tack that could get taken here is for Rico to gain some kind of divine blessing from one of _Sword Art Online_ canon's Underworld's goddesses' counterparts in this project's continuity at some point, but that doesn't deflate the drama queen's ego. 0

    - - Some setting mechanics and lore do clash, or at least feel(s) like it/they could clash, with _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s. One of the major sticking points, if not _the_ sticking point, here is how the first step in creating a [Torch](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Torch) is for a [Denizen](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Crimson_Denizen) of the Crimson Realm to fully devour a human's '[Power of Existence](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Power_of_Existence),' thus rendering said human ['ret-gone'](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RetGone))
    + - Some setting mechanics and lore do clash, or at least feel(s) like it/they could clash, with _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s:
    + - It isn't clear that a _Shakugan no Shana_ '[distortion](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Distortion),' caused by unstable ['Power of Existence'](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Power_of_Existence) and rooted in the [rift](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Rift_Between_Both_Worlds) between Earth's plane of existence and [the Crimson Realm](https://shakugan.fandom.com/wiki/Crimson_Realm), has a character that's comparable enough to that of a _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_ dimensional tremor or rift.

         Also an urban fantasy, so it would've fit in with _MegaTokyo_ (see [issue #59](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/59),) not to mention _Kaze no Stigma_ and _Mai-HIME_ above. Also, Arisa Bannings and Shana apparently share Rie Kugimiya as their voice actress with each other in Japan. To quote TV Tropes's entry for Arisa on [its page about _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s characters](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha) (adjusted slightly to add missing context back and for consistency in name spelling:)

It'd be hard to find a way to make it so that such a change didn't affect the plot too much, though.

         Not only is the premise behind the sports tournament 'battles' that happen silly, so is what happens to defeated opponents during these conflicts. When dispatched, combatants native to the series's setting's isekai destination of Flanyard turn into…cute little bouncing balls of chibi fluff with their ears and tails sticking out. If I remember correctly, it may be spell that makes this happen, but I'd be surprised if the mechanics of the magic involved didn't conflict with how _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_ spell mechanics.
         Also, I don't know where Flanyard would be, either as a whole planet as in _Dog Days_ canon or as, say, just a continent. Hypothetically, one could find some way to do a 'real war' AU for the series and then I could use that, but such a thing isn't really in the spirit of the series.

    - 'kingdom' here referring to the Eldant Empire, of course. In that case, the scenario would be that Petralka's a displaced monarch who's fled into exile, seeking anonymity amidst her country's residents — that is, if she hasn't had to depart its borders entirely.
    -      That has the potential to leave an interesting possibility open, however: maybe Myucel helps Petralka make her getaway, leading the two of them to become friendly towards each other earlier than in _Outbreak Company_ series canon.)

    - - _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_
    -
    -      The series's canon in-universe chronology pre-supposes widespread historical mage activity, whereas even the bare minimum of how this project intertwines the crossover source material origins it already uses leaves magic use undocumented in human history. _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_ would therefore have to come in as an AU version of itself if I were to add it, but it could work otherwise. Here are some things that'd have to change to get doing that to work:
    -
    - - Blazer magic's and device\* summoning's mechanics would have to get reworked a bit. In _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_ canon, Blazers focus their magic and summon their devices\* by channeling their _souls_. While, in this project and its various crossover source material origins, a mage's reserves of energy, mystical or otherwise, _are_ tied to their corporeal and metaphysical existence in some way, be that by _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_-style Linker Core or some other mechanism, they aren't shavings off of a mage's soul. (Of course, that probably doesn't stop one or more religions or magical or mystical traditions somewhere in-universe from pretending otherwise.)
    -
    - \* No, _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_ Blazer 'Devices' aren't _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_-style Storage Device, Boost Devices, Armed Devices, Intelligent Devices, Hybrid-Intelligent or Autonomous-Action Type Intelligent Devices, or Unison Devices, though I suppose they could qualify as Device-like equipment, albeit a novel type in that they're summoned.
    - - Some or all of the series's ecchi elements would have to get toned down to some extent or removed altogether. (Admittedly, this might prove somewhat difficult to do, as an ecchi incident is what got the series's male and female protagonists together and paired up with each other to _begin_ with…)
    -
    - I suppose another way this could potentially be made to work could be to move it further down this project's timeline into its future after its current focus.
    - _The Asterisk War_

         Its backstory includes a divergent history, including a global apocalypse precipitating societal disruption and partial collapse, starting with the late 20th century. I'd also say that it additionally includes sentient AI before it's supposed to exist in this project, _buuut_…:

    - - _The Asterisk War_
    -
    -      Its backstory includes a divergent history, including a global apocalypse precipitating societal disruption and partial collapse, starting with the late 20th century. I'd also say that it additionally includes sentient AI before it's supposed to exist in this project, _buuut_…:
    -
    - - Of _Sword Art Online_'s canon AI characters, Alice is just a normal human in this project's continuity. That decouples her from AI's emergence and vice versa. (Maybe Yui's a _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_-style Device, probably a Hybrid-Intelligent or Autonomous-Action Type Intelligent Device, after she gets 'isekai'd to a mash-up of all the games the transfer involved like all of their players, but that still doesn't make her count, either, as she'd exist independently of a game server.)
    - - If [issue #37](shttps://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/37) got resolved in favor of adding _Full Metal Panic!_ into this project as crossover source material, then:
    -
    - - [Dana](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/Dana), Mithril's [_TDD-1 Tuatha de Danaan_ amphibious Assault Landing Submarine](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/Tuatha_de_Danaan)'s AI
    - - [Al](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/ARX-7_Arbalest#Al), Mithril's [_ARX-7 Arbalest_](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/ARX-7_Arbalest)'s AI
    -
    - make this point moot. (Though perhaps Earth technology hasn't progressed to the point where you could fit a sentient AI in a robot or android roughly the size of a person yet?)
    - - _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s Al-Hazard had and Midchilda and allied worlds have AIs in Intelligent Devices, though that of course doesn't translate over to Earth technology unless and until (after) someone starts attempting to reverse-engineer it or is just provided with the knowledge needed to produce it outright.
    - - Given [issue #34](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/38), I should note that _Triangle Heart 3: Sweet Songs Forever_ already has Noel K. Ehrlichkeit as a sentient robot, although she and her added sister Farin K. Ehrlichkeit are human in _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s various continuities.
    -
    - All this being the case, _The Asterisk War_ could be made to work as an added crossover source material origin — and would then go in this document's other section — if:
    -
    - - An AU reworking its backstory to remove the apocalypse from canon's divergent history without otherwise disturbing canon events too much got used.
    - - It took place in this project's continuity after computer technology gets scaled down enough to host a sentient AI in a body close to the size of a human's.
    - _Sky Wizards Academy_

         This could fit in alongside _WorldEnd: What are you doing at the end of the world? Are you busy? Will you save us?_ — see [issue #39]()https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/39 —, but it'd have to be an AU:

    - - I don't want how, in _Sky Wizards Academy_ canon, nobody [except those with magical potential](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RippleEffectProofMemory) can remember the dead to be a thing — that is, death in the series ['ret-gones'](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RetGone) the deceased. On the other hand, that nobody mundane can remember Socié Whitale is a large part of the motivation from Misora Whitale's backstory behind why she was inspired to go on and fight to protect Mistgun as a 'wizard.'
    -      Here's one possible idea of how to work around this, though some of its details would still need working out: individuals lacking magical potential don't lose their memories of mages who've passed away, but Socié Whitale (and perhaps others) are still lost to Mistgun in one or more ways that makes it so said wizards can't return, at least not easily. This still keeps some of the essence of the situation from canon intact, if not all of its _particulars_: instead of Misora being upset with her father Gale for not being able to remember her mother/his wife Socié, Misora is instead upset that Gale knowingly admits that he can't do anything to help find Socié if she's still out there and has resigned himself to the knowledge of her status of 'missing, presumed dead.'
    -      Of course, the one question that this raises to leave open is why Socié's magic cannon sword, Radgrid, got located and returned to Mistgun, but not Socié herself. In any event, this leaves the possibility of Misora reuniting with her mothe. This would likely happen as part of exploration beyond Mistgun, as could be expected in a crossover, whether such was self-directed or incited by contact initiated when another party ended up there in or near the floating academy city.
    - - [Real Nua](https://kuusenmadoushikouhoseinokyoukan.fandom.com/wiki/Real_Nua) is perverse. I can see two possibilities here; either:
    -
    - - He's caught doing prohibited experiments with this project's continuity's counterpart of the series's canon 'Beetles' and ends up in jail, derailing events and butterflying his influence in them away completely.
    - - He witnessed something similar to his canon actions perpetrated by another individual somewhere else besides Mistgun before coming there and actually learned enough from said person's mistakes. This keeps him as an antagonist, albeit a more moderate one.
    -
    - Either way, he deserves nerfing of some form or another.
    - - Rico Flamel's still a narcissist with an inferiority complex (partly concerning her sister older Freon) who's deluded herself into thinking she's a goddess and declaring it for all to hear. If there's any way that Rico could get disabused of her foolish notions, then I might well like to hear it. (That sort of character development is certainly the kind that'd take longer, though.) Another tack that could get taken here is for Rico to gain some kind of divine blessing from one of _Sword Art Online_ canon's Underworld's goddesses' counterparts in this project's continuity at some point, but that doesn't deflate the drama queen's ego. 0

It'd be hard to find a way to make it so that such a change didn't affect the plot too much, though. I suppose one tack one could take to ensure this could be to make an attempt in-universe to try and limit public knowledge of the true, full extent of the 'technology's' potential for as long as possible, but I have no idea how long that type of charade might hold up.)

    - - She isn't a princess, just the daughter to an family that runs a successful company like Asuna is, though likely in a completely different market. (Maybe iaria bikes? This can also tie into _Ao no Kanata no Four Rhythm_'s entry just above, except with the anti-gravity lift weight limit bumped up a bit, so iaria can be a sport in the real world.)
    - - She's still a princess, but the Misurugi Empire is a country allied with Japan that lies in territory historically disputed between Japan, Russia, and maybe China in this AU. Perhaps that company from the other possibility still exists, but it's nationalized and under control of the Misurugi Empire's royal family.
    - - Nobuyuki Sugou is a _much_-deservedly _much_-nerfed stand-in for _Cross Ange_'s Embryo and is after Ange instead of Asuna.

    -### Section Entires Which Need Workshopping
    -
    -     Again putting scope concerns to the side to defer handling them for the moment, there are some elements that I would or might be open to adding but have set aside for now which need some workshopping before they fit in with everything else. This sub-section's for those kinds of entries.
    -
    - - _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_

    -      The series's canon in-universe chronology pre-supposes widespread historical mage activity, whereas even the bare minimum of how this project intertwines the crossover source material origins it already uses leaves magic use undocumented in human history. _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_ would therefore have to come in as an AU version of itself if I were to add it, but it could work otherwise. Here are some things that'd have to change to get doing that to work:
    +## Elements I Would or Might Be Open to Adding But Can't

    - - Blazer magic's and device\* summoning's mechanics would have to get reworked a bit. In _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_ canon, Blazers focus their magic and summon their devices\* by channeling their _souls_. While, in this project and its various crossover source material origins, a mage's reserves of energy, mystical or otherwise, _are_ tied to their corporeal and metaphysical existence in some way, be that by _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_-style Linker Core or some other mechanism, they aren't shavings off of a mage's soul. (Of course, that probably doesn't stop one or more religions or magical or mystical traditions somewhere in-universe from pretending otherwise.)
    +     Again putting scope concerns to the side to defer handling them for the moment, these are elements, including potential crossover source material origins, that I would or might be open to adding to this project but can't for one reason or another.

    - \* No, _Chivalry of a Failed Knight_ Blazer 'Devices' aren't _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_-style Storage Device, Boost Devices, Armed Devices, Intelligent Devices, Hybrid-Intelligent or Autonomous-Action Type Intelligent Devices, or Unison Devices, though I suppose they could qualify as Device-like equipment, albeit a novel type in that they're summoned.
    - - Some or all of the series's ecchi elements would have to get toned down to some extent or removed altogether. (Admittedly, this might prove somewhat difficult to do, as an ecchi incident is what got the series's male and female protagonists together and paired up with each other to _begin_ with…)
    + - _Black Lagoon_

    - I suppose another way this could potentially be made to work could be to move it further down this project's timeline into its future after its current focus.
    - - _The Asterisk War_
    -
    -      Its backstory includes a divergent history, including a global apocalypse precipitating societal disruption and partial collapse, starting with the late 20th century. I'd also say that it additionally includes sentient AI before it's supposed to exist in this project, _buuut_…:
    -
    - - Of _Sword Art Online_'s canon AI characters, Alice is just a normal human in this project's continuity. That decouples her from AI's emergence and vice versa. (Maybe Yui's a _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_-style Device, probably a Hybrid-Intelligent or Autonomous-Action Type Intelligent Device, after she gets 'isekai'd to a mash-up of all the games the transfer involved like all of their players, but that still doesn't make her count, either, as she'd exist independently of a game server.)
    - - If [issue #37](shttps://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/37) got resolved in favor of adding _Full Metal Panic!_ into this project as crossover source material, then:
    -
    - - [Dana](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/Dana), Mithril's [_TDD-1 Tuatha de Danaan_ amphibious Assault Landing Submarine](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/Tuatha_de_Danaan)'s AI
    - - [Al](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/ARX-7_Arbalest#Al), Mithril's [_ARX-7 Arbalest_](https://fullmetalpanic.fandom.com/wiki/ARX-7_Arbalest)'s AI
    -
    - make this point moot. (Though perhaps Earth technology hasn't progressed to the point where you could fit a sentient AI in a robot or android roughly the size of a person yet?)
    - - _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s Al-Hazard had and Midchilda and allied worlds have AIs in Intelligent Devices, though that of course doesn't translate over to Earth technology unless and until (after) someone starts attempting to reverse-engineer it or is just provided with the knowledge needed to produce it outright.
    - - Given [issue #34](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/38), I should note that _Triangle Heart 3: Sweet Songs Forever_ already has Noel K. Ehrlichkeit as a sentient robot, although she and her added sister Farin K. Ehrlichkeit are human in _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_'s various continuities.
    -
    - All this being the case, _The Asterisk War_ could be made to work as an added crossover source material origin — and would then go in this document's other section — if:
    -
    - - An AU reworking its backstory to remove the apocalypse from canon's divergent history without otherwise disturbing canon events too much got used.
    - - It took place in this project's continuity after computer technology gets scaled down enough to host a sentient AI in a body close to the size of a human's.
    +      It's gotten crossed over with _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_, _Ranma ½_ (see [issue #3](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/3),) and _Sailor Moon_ before, namely in [the _Grand Tour_ series by Drunken Grognard](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/GrandTourSeries). I won't write the swearing, lewd gesturing, and political, religious, and other irreverence that bringing _Black Lagoon_ in as a crossover source material origin would involve, though. Also, I'm not dealing with [Hansel and Gretel](https://lagooncompany.fandom.com/wiki/H%C3%A4nsel_and_Gretel).

If I _were_ to use _Re:Zero_ as a crossover source material origin, what few mentions the series makes of gods in-universe are very minor, only showing up in the names for a couple 'Divine Protections,' a type of in-born skill, so it'd otherwise work fine if I used a very mild AU where the series's few references to specific gods unique to its setting have been done away with. In that case, I think I'd probably place the series's locations on Theldesia's (currently still unnamed) neighboring habitable Venus analogue along with _Sword Art Online_'s Underworld.
    + - _Dog Days_
    +
    +      (Aside: This series was by Seven Arcs, the same studio known for _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_. That doesn't change anything about my opinion here in the following discussion, though.)
    +      Not only is the premise behind the sports tournament 'battles' that happen silly, so is what happens to defeated opponents during these conflicts. When dispatched, combatants native to the series's setting's isekai destination of Flanyard turn into…cute little bouncing balls of chibi fluff with their ears and tails sticking out. If I remember correctly, it may be spell that makes this happen, but I'd be surprised if the mechanics of the magic involved didn't conflict with how _Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha_ spell mechanics.
    +      Also, I don't know where Flanyard would be, either as a whole planet as in _Dog Days_ canon or as, say, just a continent. Hypothetically, one could find some way to do a 'real war' AU for the series and then I could use that, but such a thing isn't really in the spirit of the series.

This world really only exists for backstory purposes, at least at the moment, though _perhaps_ it might see a _short_ visit in prologue material if I end up showing anything from this world's principal character's point of view in the life they had _before_ they get isekai-interleaved into Chiharuka? Whether and when Chiharuka might return to this Earth later is something I'll leave up in the air for now; she wouldn't take this trip before the end of her adventures on Theldesia, at the very least.

    +      _Cross Ange_ canon's [Galia Empire](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Galia_Empire) likely does _not_ exist on TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth. Its name is close to 'Gallia,' a historical name for France dating from the days of the Roman Empire, so I'll just use (maybe northern or eastern) France — or maybe Belgium or Switzerland; see further context later on in this paragraph — instead. Like one of the possibilites I had in mind for Ange when initially speculating on what kind of _Cross Ange_ AU might get used in this project — again in the issue on considering _Cross Ange_ for addition to this project as a potential crossover source material origin, [#108](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/108) —, this project's continuity's iteration of [Alektra Maria 'Jill' von Loewenherz](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Jill) can be from a wealthy business family. Speaking of Jill, her real name, Alektra Maria von Loewenherz, sounds more German than French despite _Cross Ange_ canon having her born as princess of the 'Galia' Empire, hence my being open to having her live in Belgium or Switzerland in this project's continuity instead of in France. Northern or eastern France close to the country's border with either Belgium, Switzerland, or even Germany also works, however.

         An as-yet-undesignated inhabitable Venus analogue with the addition of one or more moons involving the following crossover source material:

    - _Sword Art Online: Alicization_'s Underworld.
    +
    +      This goes without saying, but I'll document it explicitly anyway; using this as a crossover source material origin adds the countries of the:
    +
    + - [Norlangarth Empire](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Norlangarth_North_Empire),
    + - [Eastabarieth Empire](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Eastabarieth_Empire),

    + - [Southacroith Empire](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Southacroith_Empire)
    +
    + to this as-yet-undesignated habitable alternate Venus with one or more moons. It also adds:
    +
    + - the city of [Centoria](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Centoria), potentially neutral in this project's continuity, as well as
    + - the End Mountains (name taken from the _Alicization_ anime's English dub)
    +
    + to it.
    +
    +      (_Note:_ Are the End Mountains really called that in this project's continuity? _SAO: Alicization_'s [Dark Territory](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Dark_Territory_2) doesn't exist here, so the End Mountains…aren't really the end of this planet's known reaches. Regardless of what they're called, though, the End Mountains still _exist_; odds are they're an artifact of a past major meteorite impact.)
    +
    +      (Outstanding questions:
    +
    + - Do the four empires of Norlangarth, Eastabarieth, Wesdarath, and Southacroith still form a joint super-empirea long with historically-neutral Centoria? I could still see that being the case, as their all lying within the End Mountains could well still be one factor for them to have formed an alliance after any past shared mutual conflict.
    + - Do Norlangarth, Eastabarieth, Wesdarath, and Southacroith all technically still have to be empires in this project's continuity?
    + - Do the walls between all four nations extending out from Centoria still exist in this project's continuity? They seem at least mildly/a bit silly/ludicrous. If they do exist and were created back when the four countries were less amicable toward each other in their relations, then perhaps these walls have started to come down by now or are at least more permeable to travel.)

         _Cross Ange_ canon's [Galia Empire](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Galia_Empire) likely does _not_ exist on TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth.

Like one of the possibilites I had in mind for Ange when initially speculating on what kind of _Cross Ange_ AU might get used in this project — again in the issue on considering _Cross Ange_ for addition to this project as a potential crossover source material origin, [#108](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/108) —, this project's continuity's iteration of [Alektra Maria 'Jill' von Loewenherz](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Jill) can be from a wealthy business family. Speaking of Jill, her real name, Alektra Maria von Loewenherz, sounds more German than French despite _Cross Ange_ canon having her born as princess of the 'Galia' Empire, hence my being open to having her live in Belgium or Switzerland in this project's continuity instead of in France. Northern or eastern France close to the country's border with either Belgium, Switzerland, or even Germany also works, however.

    +
    + - [the Misurugi Empire](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Empire_of_Misurugi)

    +      _Cross Ange_ canon's [Galia Empire](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Galia_Empire) likely does _not_ exist on TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth. Its name is close to 'Gallia,' a historical name for France dating from the days of the Roman Empire, so I'll just use (maybe northern or eastern) France — or maybe Belgium or Switzerland; see further context later on in this paragraph — instead. Like one of the possibilites I had in mind for Ange when initially speculating on what kind of _Cross Ange_ AU might get used in this project — again in the issue on considering _Cross Ange_ for addition to this project as a potential crossover source material origin, [#108](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/108) —, this project's continuity's iteration of [Alektra Maria 'Jill' von Loewenherz](https://crossange.fandom.com/wiki/Jill) can be from a wealthy business family. Speaking of Jill, her real name, Alektra Maria von Loewenherz, sounds more German than French despite _Cross Ange_ canon having her born as princess of the 'Galia' Empire, hence my being open to having her live in Belgium or Switzerland in this project's continuity instead of in France. Northern or eastern France close to the country's border with either Belgium, Switzerland, or even Germany also works, however.

    +     An as-yet-undesignated inhabitable Venus analogue with the addition of one or more moons involving the following crossover source material:

    - _Sword Art Online: Alicization_'s Underworld.

    +      This goes without saying, but I'll document it explicitly anyway; using this as a crossover source material origin adds the countries of the:
    +
    + - [Norlangarth Empire](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Norlangarth_North_Empire),
    + - [Eastabarieth Empire](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Eastabarieth_Empire),

    + - [Southacroith Empire](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Southacroith_Empire)
    +
    + to this as-yet-undesignated habitable alternate Venus with one or more moons. It also adds:
    +
    + - the city of [Centoria](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Centoria), potentially neutral in this project's continuity, as well as
    + - the End Mountains (name taken from the _Alicization_ anime's English dub)
    +
    + to it.
    +
    +      (_Note:_ Are the End Mountains really called that in this project's continuity? _SAO: Alicization_'s [Dark Territory](https://swordartonline.fandom.com/wiki/Underworld#Dark_Territory_2) doesn't exist here, so the End Mountains…aren't really the end of this planet's known reaches. Regardless of what they're called, though, the End Mountains still _exist_; odds are they're an artifact of a past major meteorite impact.)
    +
    +      (Outstanding questions:
    +
    + - Do the four empires of Norlangarth, Eastabarieth, Wesdarath, and Southacroith still form a joint super-empirea long with historically-neutral Centoria? I could still see that being the case, as their all lying within the End Mountains could well still be one factor for them to have formed an alliance after any past shared mutual conflict.
    + - Do Norlangarth, Eastabarieth, Wesdarath, and Southacroith all technically still have to be empires in this project's continuity?
    + - Do the walls between all four nations extending out from Centoria still exist in this project's continuity? They seem at least mildly/a bit silly/ludicrous. If they do exist and were created back when the four countries were less amicable toward each other in their relations, then perhaps these walls have started to come down by now or are at least more permeable to travel.)

    GitLab's Snippet creation Web UI, which has opinions about spacing that differ
    from the style I use both in this Snippet repository and personally in general.

    + - Kayaba and Argus, Ltd., if they're still who develop Full Dive technology — see another note later on —, let other developers in on it and other companies make their own non-NerveGear headsets and their own games.
    - (Whether this means the NerveGear and SAO still end up becoming the first Full Dive VR-MMO headset and game to get released is up in the air for now, but perhaps not so as to fit other elements of a crossover in.)

    - SAO's beta test proceeds as normal, as do other games' (and initial launches and early lifespans for any titles that might've released before SAO.)
    + - Maybe Nobuyuki Sugou enters into the picture from somewhere other than TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth elsewhere in the Dimensional Sea that the TSAB's not familiar with, at least not too much, but has comparable but not identical in capabilities to Midchildan civilization?
    + - I don't know what'd prompt Sugou to wander over Earth's way by the time he's studying at the Toto Institute of Technology under Tetsuhiro Shigemura alongside Kayaba and Takeru Higa, though.
    + - If this is the case, then maybe:
    + - Kayaba's also from the same general area of the multiverse as Sugou, though not necessarily the same world.
    + - This continuity's counterpart of _Alfheim Online_, either stand-alone or combined with _Gun Gale Online_ and using mecha musume mechanics or not — see an earlier note in this file —, could launch first before Sword Art Online.
    + - Reagardless of what, exactly, Sugou's shenanigans end up being in this continuity, Kayaba somehow ends up getting tangled up in dealing with them even while also still working on SAO even though he isn't a member of his original home turf's civil authorities. Maybe someone from said authorities working on a case involving Sugou who knows Kayaba from before helps untangle some obfuscated records and realizes that Sugou, even if not pinned down by name yet, has headed Kayaba's way, then lets him know of this.
    + - Aside from Kayaba not having the same malicious intent behind his motivation for creating SAO from canon, I still need to figure out precisely what his motivation behind creating SAO is in this continuity, especially if I end up developing the thoughts in this group of notes further. y
    + - Does the isekai of players of SAO and multiple other games have to involve a Lost Logia?
    + - If it does, then perhaps Sugou was the one tampering with it. Whether he brought it with him or it was on TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth to begin with remains up in the air for now.
    - After the isekai happens for players of SAO and multiple other games for one or more reasons, Aincrad, where just SAO's events take place to start with, (and some of its surrounding floating islands, including those added/introduced by working [issue #29](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/29) into this projectf)) is(/are) floating up in the sky above Theldesia off amid its Ritorabure Islands.

    + - SAO's beta test proceeds as normal, as do other games' (and initial launches and early lifespans for any titles that might've released before SAO.)
    + - Maybe Nobuyuki Sugou enters into the picture from somewhere other than TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth elsewhere in the Dimensional Sea that the TSAB's not familiar with, at least not too much, but has comparable but not identical in capabilities to Midchildan civilization?
    + - I don't know what'd prompt Sugou to wander over Earth's way by the time he's studying at the Toto Institute of Technology under Tetsuhiro Shigemura alongside Kayaba and Takeru Higa, though.
    + - If this is the case, then maybe:
    + - Kayaba's also from the same general area of the multiverse as Sugou, though not necessarily the same world.
    + - This continuity's counterpart of _Alfheim Online_, either stand-alone or combined with _Gun Gale Online_ and using mecha musume mechanics or not — see an earlier note in this file —, could launch first before Sword Art Online.
    + - Reagardless of what, exactly, Sugou's shenanigans end up being in this continuity, Kayaba somehow ends up getting tangled up in dealing with them even while also still working on SAO even though he isn't a member of his original home turf's civil authorities. Maybe someone from said authorities working on a case involving Sugou who knows Kayaba from before helps untangle some obfuscated records and realizes that Sugou, even if not pinned down by name yet, has headed Kayaba's way, then lets him know of this.
    + - Aside from Kayaba not having the same malicious intent behind his motivation for creating SAO from canon, I still need to figure out precisely what his motivation behind creating SAO is in this continuity, especially if I end up developing the thoughts in this group of notes further. y
    + - Does the isekai of players of SAO and multiple other games have to involve a Lost Logia?
    + - If it does, then perhaps Sugou was the one tampering with it. Whether he brought it with him or it was on TSAB Unadministrated World #97 Earth to begin with remains up in the air for now.
    + - After the isekai happens for players of SAO and multiple other games for one or more reasons, Aincrad, where just SAO's events take place to start with, (and some of its surrounding floating islands, including those added/introduced by working [issue #29](https://gitlab.com/RandomDSdevel/as-yet-untitled-sword-art-online-oc-insert-fusion-multi-crossover-idea/-/issues/29) into this projectf)) is(/are) floating up in the sky above Theldesia off amid its Ritorabure Islands.

Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-…

     I originally planned/meant to have the young man of similar age from a separate timeline somewhat like ours whose consciousness subsumes Chiharuka's to have left that original timeline of his at 1:00:00 PM JST on Sunday, November 13th, 2022 — or, rather, its local equivalent where he lives —, the same time that all the players who get 'isekai'd from each of the games affected get transported to Theldesia. I've since decided to loosen this constraint or forego it entirely, since:

  • I'm not entirely sure I could avoid having Chiharuka make a video game, anime, or other pop-culture reference to something released after that.
  • I've already started crafting some alternate video game release history for Unadministrated World #97 Earth, and I feel like I could — well? — have issues if I tried keeping track of this on top of the above.

So, I'm instead just going to leave when Chiharuka's old self loses his original life open as a floating point of reference to pin down later when I'm closer to actually posting a first chapter for this project.


     Per the 'Notes' section of my 'Tentative or Preliminary Partial Chronology Sketch,' this project's various crossover source material origins currently have their settings' timelines merged as follows:

  • Dates from Sword Art Online from the start of Sword Art Online onwards have been adjusted forward by one week here to give players that time to go through my alternate Aincrad entry scenario as described in repository issue #29.
  • Dates from Log Horizon for Elder Tale have been adjusted forward by roughly 4 years, 6 months, and 10 days on average (sometimes rounded up to 5 years for events from canon which only have dates given for them in yearly granularity, mainly to keep Elder Tale release cadences the same) in order to make the Catastrophe happen at the same time the other games' player bases get 'isekai'd to Theldesia in this continuity.
  • Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha's Midchildan New Calendar's correspondence to Earth's/Unadministered World #97's Gregorian calendar* has been adjusted form any guessed or inferred canon one to make events line up and fit in with those from other crossover source material origins, including Sword Art Online's official public release and this continuity's point of isekai. Per the reasoning from the wiki page linked just above on Midchilda's New Calendar, it's guessed that, in Nanoha canon, Midchildan New Calendar year 0065 corresponds with Earth Gregorian calendar year 2006; this continuity hence adjusts this correspondence forward 16 years on the Earth side, such that Midchildan New Calendar year 0065 is now Earth Gregorian calendar year 2022.

    * Assume for now, for convenience, the lack of a non-negligible cumulative time axis differential between the different parts of — that is, universes in (and connected to) — the Dimensional Sea&thsinp;— well, its portion of the wider multiverse — home to Midchilda, other worlds known to the TSAB, and Unadministrated World #97 Earth, as well as negligible drift in such a time axis differential. Additionally, it's known that the Midchildan year is, coincidentally — and conveniently —, canonically the same length as an Earth year and divided up into months the same way. Given these constraints, dates from:

    • 358 years, 2 months, and 17 days (Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha canon)
    • 374 years, 2 months, and 17 days (This continuity)

    before January 1st of the year of Midchilda's adoption of its New Calendar — that is, dates on the Old Calendar, though its relation to the New Calendar is unknown — presumbly correspond, at least on average, to dates before Friday, October 15th, 1582 on the proleptic Gregorian calendar.
         (Another piece of information that's unknown is whether anybody from Midchilda has ever applied its New Calendar proleptically instead of just using the Old Calendar. Doing that with the Gregorian calendar on Earth can be more useful and relevant and come into play more when referencing dates after its first recorded use but before all countries switched to it. It can be taken implicitly that Midchilda simultaneously adopted its New Calendar world-wide, thus avoiding that sort of issue.)

This isn't set in stone yet, however; I'm open to adjusting it and using a different pivotal date (and year.) Potential alternatives I could consider include:

Re: As-Yet-Untitled 'Sword Art Online' OC-Insert Fusion Multi-…

     So it ended up turning out that AO3 doesn't just discourage (friendly) (ab)use of work pages for things that aren't works, like ad-hoc discussion threads since the site doesn't support those separately outside of work comments; it's the case that these are actively moderated for and removed from the site. 🤦 A presence of any sort on AO3 for this project will hence have to wait until whenever I finally have an actual first chapter to post.
     (I'll remove this thread's dead AO3 links soon. The only ones should be in the OP.)
