Just a note - please don't bother responding to my previous letter (or
any other letter of mine) if you don't have anything useful to say other
than making a pointless sarcastic comment.  I don't see much point in
being rude to someone that you've never met, but I guess there is at
least one real jerk on this list who thinks that his popularity or
noteriety gives him some kind of perogative.  Or maybe he's just a
spiteful person by nature.  Either way, it's his problem and not mine.  

Thank you to those who DID respond to my query seriously!!  I really
appreciate your help!  ^_^  

On a lighter, fanfic-related note, I decided to jot down my YYH/FY idea
(very rough, mind you).  However, I really don't think I can write the
entire story.  I just don't think I know enough to maintain accurate
characterizations thoughout the story.  At least not yet - maybe in a
few months though.  Again, please tell me if it's already been written.
If so, I'd really like to read it.  This story would contain significant
spoilers for Fushigi Yuugi, so if you aren't familiar with the end of
the tv anime series or with the end of vol 13 (I think this is
equivalent) of the manga and you don't want to be spoiled, please move
on to the next fanfic.  ^_^  Also, I'm not that knowledgable about Yuu
Yuu Hakusho.  In fact, I'm only just watching the beginning of
television series (I've seen the middle and end before, but not the
beginning.  Strange, huh?), and although I own most of the manga, I
haven't gotton around to reading it yet (it's that whole lack of spare
time thing again ^_^).  But I intend to review it as soon as my sister
returns it to me.  

Anyway, enough blather.  Here's the idea.  It's not written in
story-format because I'm really just in the outline stage.  Please feel
free to send any useful and polite comments (even negative criticism can
be given tactfully and politely). 

Setting is near the end of the main story of Fushigi Yuugi.  Tamahome is
dead/defeated by Nakago.  Yui is being consumed by Seiryuu.  Kensuke has
just tried to call Chichiri and Tasuke who are still in the book to come
to the real world to save Miaka.  Miaka is trying to defend herself from
Nakago.  But, instead of Chichiri and Tasuke showing up at the last
second to protect her, Yuusuke and Kuwabara show up instead.
Apparently, when the fighting started breaking out in the real world it
alerted Koenma who immediately sent Botan to dispatch the troops.  This
would be closer to the beginning of the YYH series (but after the whole
demon-insect infestation story - hopefully someone can see where I'm
going with this now :-), so Nakago would actually have a chance against
them.  But Miaka (ever the klutz), can't stay out of the way, and so
ends up Nakago's hostage and in even more trouble than she was before.
Now Chichiri and Tasuke finally show up (a little late) but there's not
much they can do (if you recall, their powers were sealed by Seiryuu).
Hmmph.  For some reason I currently have a mental block as to what
exactly happened next in FY.  I'll need to look it up when I get home.
Anyway, I still have to think it through exactly, but at some point here
a wish will be made, a giant blue dragon will appear in the sky, 5
ghosts will show up (ghosts that aren't supposed to even exist - talk
about some screwed up paperwork for Koenma to deal with!), Tamahome
reappears, and Miaka will try to summon Suzaku.  And of course Hiei and
Kurama will show up.  And the four guys will wonder how the hell (pun
intended) Seiryuu and Suzaku managed to survive and make it to the human
world!  It turns out that the book, the Universe of the Four Gods, is a
weak link to the demon world.  But it's a link that the 4 "gods", Genbu,
Byakko, Seiryuu, and Suzaku, have been trying to exploit for hundreds of
years.  Unfortunately, because it's such a weak link it requires a
person from the human world with just the right spiritual energy - a
miko - for them to channel through.  This is the first time two of them
have been truly sucessful in trying to break their way into the human
world.  And of course, we find out that they weren't really using their
full power the first time they fought Yuusuke et al, because part of
their power was being used to help maintain an entire alternate reality
inside the book, which is also where they went when they were thought to
have died.  What's interesting, at least to Koemna, is that somehow the
denizens of this alternate reality aquired human souls, souls that were
probably misfiled and lost in the paperwork.  Kinda suggests an inside
job, doesn't it?  ^_^  Anyway, this all results in a Big Fight,
YYH-style, with several apparent-wins and near-losses as our guys duke
it out with the demon-gods and Nakago for the sake of the earth.  I
haven't decided yet who will win and who will die.  Plus there's the
bonus problem of Yui who's been consumed by Seiryuu and needs to be
saved.  Don't think that Suzaku is going to be granting wishes just the
way Miaka wants him to, either.  So what do you think?  Should I try to
write it, or should I stick to LoGH spamfics and work on my other
stories instead?  Or has a story similar to this already been written?
Or would someone else like to tackle it?  Please let me know. 

Thanks a lot!!

Jennifer

We can run to the end of the world
