    This is a plot bunny thread, not a story outline thread.

    I meant that it can be wrapped up quite quickly. The fight with L was fun because we didn't know his name. If you're at war with the Death Eaters and you have Light and the Death Note on your side, there's no story left.

    I admit, that I'm not creative enough to even make a story outline with that kind of premise, but judging by the number of HP/DN-crossovers there are on FFN (160), there may be some, who can pull that off.

    Fire and Magic Part 2

    The war continues for months with both sides winning and losing equally often, and it would continue for years if not for signs of upcoming winter. The leaders decide that the best choice for everyone is to end it in a single battle.

    After few smaller skirmishes, the armies meet at the Trident. Before the battle starts, both brothers meet for the last attempt of resolving this conflict. It there that Rhaegar's reveals his true intentions. It's not for the Iron Throne that he fights, but to save the realm from the Great Other.

    For a moment the Half-Blood King (as he's called by the people) that this may mean they can work together until his brother reveals another thing. Harry is the Great Other. The Bastard King can only laugh at this absurd accusation. The battle is inevitable.

    The brothers search for each other on the battlefield, but they find different adversaries. In the end Rhaegar falls to Robert Baratheon, but Harry manages to best Jon Connington.

    The realm is at peace once again.


    The final twist is that Rhaegar was right and Harry is the Great Other. What he isn't aware of is that he was reborn with a piece of Voldemort soul merged with his own. Because of this he has equal potential to be the greatest hero or the worst villain in the history of the realm. And since this is ASoIaF I would end it with a suggestion that slowly, but surely he will transform into the second one though once again with a twist. Instead of being a simple madman who wants to kill everyone because he's evil, he would be a humanitarian that considers destroying this cruel world as an act of kindness.

    Daenerys Targaryen isn't just a pretty thing her brother wants to buy an army with. Viserys kicks the bucket early and Dany, forced to survive on her own, grows up a warrior princess. Also, she was born with the soul of a dragon and spends her days Fus-ro-dahing people she doesn't like. Or, alternatively, she's not a Dovakhiin, but more like Xena: Kicking ass literally instead of with magic.

    And then you take it from there.

    For what purpose? I have no idea how or why would Lily marry an obvious Dumbledore supporter. Not unless James is already predestined to be high in the ranks of the White Hallows and she's just doing that for an undercover job.

    They started dating at Hogwarts and married shortly after school, James' vocal support of Dumbledore only increased after that.

    Lily had to pretend to be one too, it'd be dangerous to speak loudly against the ministry, after all.

    I get that, but I still don't see her tying herself down to someone who was an avid Dumbledore supporter to start with. I get that you want to give us Harry Potter, by any means necessary, but this just seems wrong, or out of place if you will.

    Look at this way:

    Dumbledore rules Britain. If Lily wanted to marry someone who was against Dumbledore she would have to move to another country.

    James Potter meanwhile is rich, good-looking, has connections and is talented at magic. Sure, his support of Dumbledore is annoying, but as long as it doesn't interfere in their private life, then it's no big deal, right?

    I don't see a way it wouldn't interfere with their life. Say James lived, how the hell would Lily raise Harry in accordance with Voldemort's instructions? Or in general, since I assume she'd try to raise him in accordance of whatever beliefs Voldemort and his group held.

    I guess she'd try giving Harry the best childhood possible and she hopes that before he grows up Dumbledore will be taken care of and James will come around.

    Love and family can sometimes get in the way of logic, I have no problems seeing Lily as being in denial.

    And its not like Dumbledore's and Voldemort's ideologies are all that different. They both want power and it is simply a matter of the figurehead. James supports Dumbledore because he's blind to the man's faults. However Lily sees the big picture because she was raised by muggles who are second-class citizens due to their lack of magic.

    Just what are their ideologies exactly, outside of who gets to rule?

    Dumbledore simply continues his whole "the strong shall rule over the weak" while Voldemort is not only pissed off at being shot in the back, but also wants to rule the entire world.

    Basically, in return for removing blood purity, statute of secrecy, the wand ban and house elf slavery I made Dumbledore just as bad as Grindelwald and put him in a position of power.

    So basically evil!Dumbledore. The whole thing could work better if you killed Dumbledore and put Grindy as the overlord. Then you could turn Britain into a dystopian shithole and no one would bat an eye.
