[Fanfic] Shell's Fics and Plot Bunnies

*BubblyShell22* · 12-04-2012, 07:46 AM

Hey, I've decided to start my own thread that showcases any stories I post and also any plot bunnies I come up with just so I can get your reactions.

Right now, the plot bunny I have in my head is set in the Nick universe and is called "Mind Over Matter." The premise is that Shredder discovers he can attack the Turtles via meditation and decides to set his sights on Leo. When Leo is attacked mentally and isn't able to escape, he begins to question his self-worth and whether he can fight against Shredder on his own. Meanwhile, the others don't know what's going on and have a hard time believing that it's Shredder doing the damage to their brother. Splinter believes Leo and teaches him how to fight Shredder off.

That's the vague idea I have right now. It might change as I progress with it, but for now, that's the basic premise. So, what do you think? Does it sound good, or could I expand on it even more? I would like your feedback because I want to make sure that this sounds like a good idea. If it doesn't, then I won't write it. Thanks a million.

This is a very complex, above-the-norm idea, I really like it, it'll be interesting to see just how you portray the psychic battlefield that Leo and Shredder will project in their heads. Go for it.

Thanks. I'll do my best to see if I can do this, but I think I can. I wasn't sure if this idea was really going to work in this universe, but the episode "The Gauntlet" really showed me that this series can get dark when the situation calls for it. This fic will take place after "The Gauntlet" as well as I think that's a great lead in to this story. Thanks for the feedback.

Cool idea Shell, i'm sure you'll do a good job with it. I think the Nick universe is the right place for it too with Leo acting younger than in previous incarnations and more believably teenage. I wonder, will he go to Splinter straight away with it though or try to deal with it himself first?
Can't wait to read it!

*BubblyShell22* · 12-05-2012, 04:02 PM

Honestly, I'm not sure about that. I don't think going to Splinter straight away will be a good idea as it will make the story too short. I was thinking of a different idea, which I don't want to say here because I don't want to spoil anything.

In the meantime, here's another story based after "The Gauntlet" called "Stronger." Hope you like it:

Just posted the prologue of "Mind Over Matter" up. Here it is:

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8772910/1/Mind-Over-Matter

Feel free to leave a review either at FF or here if you want.

*BubblyShell22* · 12-08-2012, 07:46 AM

Hey, I wanted to share with you another plot bunny that I've been working on. It's called "My Leito (pronounced lay-ee-toe) and was an idea given to me by a reviewer after she called Leo that nickname. She told me that the term is a Spanish nickname of Leonardo's name, and I thought it sounded cool, so I decided to write a story about it. In the story, Teresa Garcia is mourning the loss of her son who was killed by the Purple Dragons. When Leo rescues her from an ambush by Bradford and Xever, she believes that Leo is her son in a reincarnated form. Leo is confused by this and doesn't know what to make of it. Eventually, the two form a bond, and Teresa becomes the mother figure to Leo and the Turtles. I don't want to say too much because I don't want to spoil it for you, but that's my latest bunny. I've already written chapter one and intend to post it soon.

So, what do you think? Is this a good idea? I really wanted to create an OC for the new Turtles universe, and I thought Teresa would be a good one. She originally is from Chile.

Blossombrooks · 12-08-2012, 03:46 PM

Sounds intriguing, as the guys have no grown up April to mother them in the Nick series this could really work. Can't wait to read it!

*ZariusTwo* · 12-09-2012, 06:15 AM

Sounds like another very promising and heavy story, I like it, look forward to how you put the idea forward in the easy-to-follow style of the Nick show.

*BubblyShell22* · 12-09-2012, 07:20 AM

Thanks, you two. I'll do my best to deliver a good story.

DonatelloNinja82 · 12-09-2012, 05:13 PM

Just read both...great work! I'm too scared to post any of my fan fics

*BubblyShell22* · 12-10-2012, 07:33 AM

Thanks. And don't be scared. Not everyone will be harsh with you. I'd be willing to read your stories and give them a shot.

I worked some more on "My Leito" and am making progress on the second chapter, which is a good thing.

*BubblyShell22* · 12-14-2012, 07:38 AM

Have some more one-shot plot bunnies to share. Here they are:

Miss Independent: April wants to prove to the Turtles that she doesn't need help all the time and that she's capable of doing things on her own.

Longing: Splinter reflects on his life with Teng Shen and Miwa and how he misses them so much.

Temper: Splinter looks back on his mistake with Saki and how he's trying to make sure Raphael doesn't make the same mistake he did.

Because of You: April looks back on her time with her dad and how Splinter has filled that particular role.

A Shelltastic Christmas: April and her father spend Christmas with the Turtles. I might post this one up today or sometime next week. We'll see.

So, those are my bunnies for now. What do you think? I hope to have more up soon.

*ZariusTwo* · 12-14-2012, 02:55 PM

I'd like to see more from "Because of You", always loved the bond April has with Splinter

Blossombrooks · 12-15-2012, 10:40 AM

They all sound like good ideas Shell. 'Longing' sounds especially good. Which universes are they going to be in?

*BubblyShell22* · 12-16-2012, 07:57 AM

The Nick universe of course. I'm getting so many ideas from that universe.

Ooh, and I just thought of a great idea for "Mind Over Matter" as well. I'm going to write about it today and see if I can get the second chapter finished based on what I thought of. All I'm going to say is that it'll bring back a character from my story "Hero" so if you haven't read that, I suggest you do so to get acquainted with the character even though she's minor at best.

I'm not sure when those one-shots will be up, but I so can't wait to get started on them as well as get "Mind Over Matter" up to speed.

*BubblyShell22* · 12-19-2012, 07:41 AM

Just posted a Christmas story called "A Shelltastic Christmas." Here's the link:

Happy holidays, everyone.

*ZariusTwo* · 12-20-2012, 05:47 AM

Very good stuff Bubbly...felt very much like your typical Nick christmas special.

*BubblyShell22* · 12-20-2012, 08:01 AM

Thanks for the kind words, Zarius, and for taking the time to read. Happy Holidays. See you all next year.

*BubblyShell22* · 12-22-2012, 04:43 PM

Have another plot bunny. "How Does It Feel?" is a Don/April one-shot reflecting on how different the two of them are and how that affects their relationship. Can't wait to put it up.
