I'm sorry if this question bothers you (you can ignore it if you want) but you recent post about Beyond the Boundary made me remember a personal question
I think you mentioned somewhere (correct me if I wrong) that the Fire Force prequel reveal soured you hunger for fanfics involving it and Soul Eater
What exactly did the metaphorical belly hungered for (Either Fire Force only or a crossover between the two) before the eventual ruin?
It's been easier by making it "what if" scenarios that don't have to follow any logic ("So, do they time travel, or is it alternate dimensions?").
For me, what I desire is less of any ongoing plot or story ideas (although, as some of the below shows, there are ideas) so much as just interactions between characters, the equivalent of quick gags of just, "What if this character was in the same room with this character, how would they interact?"
I wrote some of my own crossover interactions as gag conversations between Soul Eater and Fire Force characters over at @ask-a-meister. And I got to collaborate with my friend elliotthezubat on others. Here are some interactions that I've enjoyed, either stuff I wrote at the RP blog, stuff Elliot and I collaborated on, or any weird stuff that comes to mind right now:
"So if Huo Yan lost an arm, he's going to need medical treatment." "How about Stein do it?"
When working with Elliot, I love interactions between Tamaki and Kana: similar animal motifs, different ages and personalities, basically giving Tamaki someone to look over and Kana someone to gently snark at (which is an improvement given all the crap Tamaki has dealt with earlier). It's a different version of what Irregulars Productions has done with Kana and Maka in the Abridged series.
Similarly, Elliot has had fun ideas with Maki treating Tsugumi as a little sister. Then Elliot had an idea how they were related--and Anya has a freak out because it undermines her preconceived headcanon about Tsugumi as a common girl (and Anya may have been my own author avatar for how surprised I was by the revelation).
I did like Ohkubo's initial crossover artwork of Maka and Shinra both in the 8th uniforms. Elliot had staged it as a promotional photo shoot, which was a fun idea.
Soul and Arthur...Elliot and I wrote an interaction that I don't think matches who Arthur ended up becoming in the series, as we kind of made Arthur too much of a dick who needed a comeuppance, when that's not really who the character is in the manga.
But we did have Inca and Kim interact...and Kim was not taking her shit.
Patty and Juggernaut is a crack pairing.
And speaking of the Thompsons, some gags around Patty and Liz mistaken for Iris and Lisa.
There may have been a gag about Gopher and Yu--I don't remember.
Elliot and I had a very weird idea about the 8th running into the sloth Marianne from the Soul Eater NOT anime.
I have zero idea how Rekka would interact around the Star / Hoshi characters from Soul Eater--and given how putrid Rekka is, I'd rather not subject anyone to his bullshit.
Elliot and I had Free and Akitaru basically doing a flexing competition similar to Sig Curtis versus Alex Louis Armstrong in Fullmetal Alchemist 2003.
From working with Elliot on writing, if things had worked out completely different, and Fire Force somehow was just contemporaneous with Soul Eater (and we ignored all the post-apocalyptic setting), that club woman Assault spoke with would have been an employee at Chupa Cabra.

New life action fma trailer just dropped how are we feeling
yUP I saw it right when it dropped at 11 hahaha - the twitter teaser that was posted weeks ago was clearly for either another live action Or a scar based light novel and I'm glad I won the bet for what it'd be
the obvious and main highlight is of course ling and lan fan making appearances - my main compliment to the live action is costumes look good and I'm glad they're keeping some of the fight scenes! idk why everyone's fighting envy on a train but at least lan fan gets to keep her grenades so no complaints there - also the actors look good I'm excited to see how they perform (given how these films are famously over-acted should be entertaining haha)
Moving on the REAL fun discussion about these live actions is figuring out What Will They Change This Time!
Last live action we had a whole slew of fun features and edits such as Tucker surviving and creating the Mannequin army that attacks East Command out of literally nowhere, so I'm looking forwards to puzzling out what they're gonna chop and screw in the sequel! since there are gonna be 2 movies that's maybe 4 hours to fill out roughly 17 hours of content in a series that is famously light on filler you know it's gonna be fun
and since the time is ripe to place bets I'm gonna go ahead and make some predictions let's see:
og greed does not exist in these films At All and only randomly shows up halfway in so we get greedling - any context for his backstory/how he gets memories back is relegated to other characters randomly mentioning it over the course of like 2 sentences before moving on
Lan Fan looses her arm but there isn't a long time skip before she comes back, that or she's written out of the finale entirely
in fact there's no 6 month time skip at all the whole plot takes place over the course of like 3 days
Fu, Yoki, Barry, and the human chimera do not exist
They didn't have the budget for a little panda so Xiao Mei is either missing or a sock puppet
for some reason scar's fight with bradley is on a rooftop
ling and lan fan were chasing envy to catch them and ran into ed on the roof of the train which is how they all met
The entire ishvalen war sequence is a series of individual flashbacks from the pov of each involved character and is a cumulative 5 minutes long
someone says scar's actual name in the flashback and it's a whole thing
roy never confronts bradley directly everyone just figures out he's evil on their own and goes straight into planning the coup
roy killing envy happens way before the finale and also takes place in a random street in the city
for the finale everyone splits up to fight the evil characters one on one at the same time and the fights are cut between constantly - the armstrong's versus sloth doesn't exist instead they help fight bradley
Izumi only appears during the finale purely so she's around as the 5th sacrifice, and her only interaction with the primary cast is ed and/or al turning to her and saying "Teacher?!?" with a baffled expression and her saying "Housewife!"
the fight with father takes place in the underground area
Tucker shows up again with more mannequins cause why not
Nina survives by proxy of not being killed by scar in the first movie and never being mentioned again
#i think i'm gonna make a bingo card it'll be fun!#i am ready to be in pain again#for real my expectations are the writing is more nonsensical than the radio plays and those had alien ghosts in them#cringing your way through these films is good for you it's exfoliating#fma#reply
