Possible spoilers for
Breaking Dawn (but not really) and
Deathly Hallows (which, if you haven't read by now--what is wrong with you?)
Remember my multi-fandom crossfic I wrote before with Twilight, Thursday Next, & Harry Potter?Where Cedric decides to change the HP plotline (for the better? you decide) and get himself killed so he can go off and audition in BookWorld for the part of Edward in Twilight? Yeah, remember that? I have another, BETTAH idea for the sequel. What makes it better? Well, for starters, Lupin*. Secondly, Spike. Do you see where I am going with this yet?
But, what does this have to do with Twilight, you ask? Well, actually, it has to deal with Breaking Dawn. No real spoilers, but in Breaking Dawn there were more werewolves, only we never got introduced to them or heard anything about them except that oh yeah, they were werewolves (yeah, thanks a lot Stephenie Meyer, way to clear that one up).
And remember in Deathly Hallows were Lupin's death was never discussed, just Harry going "Oh hay, there's mah friend Lupin, he's dead LIKE EVERYONE ELSE I KNOW." Remember that? But how JK never tells us how he died or anything? My theory is that he escaped somewhere in that missing part. And then the Jurisfiction people were like "oh carp Deathly Hallows is going to be in the outside world in less than a day, we don't have time to fix this!" so they skim over Lupin's true death scene and just put in a Danvers clone for the "hay here's ded ppl" part.
Because Lupin secretly escaped to Breaking Dawn to be one of those nondescript werewolves.
This is part 1. Part 2 will be Thursday bringing Spike into the BookWorld to track down rogue (awesome) Lupin in time for the DH release. But they fail, because they track him to the backstory of Eclipse where everyone is fursploding and Spike's all like "WOW do I have work to do here!" and takes out a lot of the southern vampires, which is why the Cullen/Werewolf team up does so well. Because Spike is that awesome. The best way to beat a crazed newborn vampire is with raw awesome, and with Jake & Seth up protecting
Lois Lane Bella, there's just not enough awesome to go around. Yes, Alice has a ton, but Alice can't take down everyone at once! She needs Spike's help.
And um...I just wanted to write all this here because generally when I have a fanfic idea at 1 AM I don't remember it when I wake up hours later. And then this way people who have read all three series(es) can bug me to write this. (that means you
rose_sparrow,
sheherezade, &
rogue_chere13. And maybe
harvardbarbie if she's read TN).
So in my version of BookWorld (my crossfics), my fave werewolves are (in order) Lupin, Seth, & Jacob.
OKAY REAL BREAKING DAWN & DEATHLY HALLOWS SPOILERS HERE. NO MORE SILLY ONES. SRS BIZNIS.
I need to figure out where Tonks escapes to. Because there's no way a great guy like Remus Lupin would leave behind his wife to die. I kind of want to make her Sue Clearwater just to be like "this is why Charlie & Billy were fighting over her" but then Tonks would end up with Charlie and that's just wrong
though it leaves Lupin free for me. I could probably have her be Siobhan and be like "Yes, I did will this to happen...with my magic. Cuz I'm a wizard."
Lupin wanted to take Teddy too, but too much concentrated awesome would leave a trail, and seriously, Tonks & Lupin have enough awesome on their own. And more importantly Teddy was going to go on to have a cool life & get together with a girl in the HP universe. Now. Compare that to Twilight where all the werewolves either have no free will in who they fall in love with, have a BADBADBAD relationship for 3 books where their hearts get broken repetitively, or imprint on young unsuspecting girls (note: Nessie & Claire). Now...he can have that, or a very nice relationship with a nice wizard girl. What do you think sounds better now, hmm?
Oh. And also because Lupin-Man-Of-Awesome knew that if he left Jurisfiction would chase him & he didn't want to put Teddy in any danger.
END REAL SPOILERS.
I...should really stop now. It's late. I'm getting more ridiculous by the second. (too bad everyone but
jenthepanda LEFT ME)
