Okay, that turned out much better than anticipated, especially when I realized you were rewriting the miniseries with Harry in it.

I do think Harry's being a little too cocky and I hope you have a plan for that to get knocked out of him a little bit.

Thank you very much for reading then, even though you didn't think it'd be to your taste.

I'm afraid Harry's on a post-Voldemort-slaying/hey-I'm-my-own-man high at the moment, so the cockiness will continue for a while. Don't worry, I have plans for that >:D

Thank you very much for reading then, even though you didn't think it'd be to your taste. -- If you think I don't like crossovers, you haven't read my body of work. :D Let me see, Tin Man with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Drangons and Ninjas), Tin Man with Alice (Making Whole), Tin Man and Medical Investigation ( Alchemy), and that's just the finished ones in Tin Man. I adore crossovers. I just have a preference for leaving the canon alone more often than not and building from there.

As for Harry, the abuse he suffered gave him more of an immunity to the Chosen One syndrome (IMHO). Since Hermione isn't here to knock down his swelled head, circumstances must due it for him. Though possessed Az can probably deflate it too. But as long as you have plans for that, I can't wait to see what Harry makes of the poor vapored Mystic Man. :)

Can't wait for the next part.

Whilst I'm ashamed to confess that I never really watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (I know, I know, and I call myself a 90s child) Alice and Medical Investigation? I shall definitely be checking those out soon. :D And I'm much like you in that I prefer crossovers that happen post-canon or, at least, seperate from it. But this was a plot bunny that wouldn't leave me alone. (This is what happens when I spend a whole month writing just one story for NaNo, my brain melts x.x)

Do you know how difficult it is to ignore leading comments like that and not tell you exactly how I bring Harry back down to Earth? ;)

I'm already about a third of the way through the next chapter, but they're epic-length chapters and pre-Xmas RL has just exploded. Still, I estimate midweek next week? Depends on how much effort I put into editing (or not...) ;)

Technically, Dragons and Ninjas is crossing over with Turtles and Legend of Zelda albeit through my OCs. My jumping off point for Turtles is the live-action movies with details/characters from the cartoon/comics worked in to match. I still haven't found a place for Baxter Stockman and probably won't at the late date. Back on track, I had a few readers not familiar with the non-Tin Man give it a chance and ended up liking it. I do try to balance so fans that don't know aren't left out.

Good luck with the writing, it's always hard during the holiday madness.
