MLP + anything.
Fortunately we have an entire league of bronies with a nothing is holy approach ready to do elaborate crossovers. Meh.
When told about a Fallout/MLP fan fic that's supposedly very good, my response was this:
Not knocking your fandom, or anything but that pony fan fiction sort of thing doesn't seem like it's at all important.
I mean, you say it's a good story and whatnot, but how is it necessarily improved by the ponies? It seems like it would be equally as good, if not better, if it were just the fallout universe. Things aren't necessarily better for being run through a "pony filter".
He still hasn't gotten back to me.
But really, there are two sorts of crossovers: The ones where the characters from one series end up in another thing, and ones where they take a certain thing and make a whole new world with new lore that's loosely based on another thing. Crossovers are fine to be honest, because really if you don't like em' you should just stay the fuck away from them. Not go on about how your thing's been "corrupted" or "ruined", because that just makes you seem like a person who doesn't want people to do what they want.
Like, Fallout Equestria is probably the only one that I've seen mentioned a lot. Any other MLP crossover you have to find to see, so if you don't want to see them just don't get on any pony fanfiction websites!
I was asking a question. When did I say I had a problem with them, or that they were ruining franchises? Conjecture is an ugly thing, mate.
Sorry, just I always just assume that everyone who wonders this are the type of people that think if a person wants to show their love for two different shows by making a crossover the show in question is "ruined" and "corrupted". But I answered your question, didn't I?
Yes, you did. Though to be honest, I think it's that overtly hostile reaction (which seems to go against the whole "love & tolerate" thing you perpetuate) that actually causes a lot of the derision your fandom receives. Other causes being things like how certain bronies treat it as more important than it really is (e.g. those pictures and posts people have made comparing the brony discrimination to gay rights, the suffragettes movements, or Martin Luther King). I'd say it's a fandom like any other which means people have just as much right to follow it as others do things like fallout, or anime. Equally though, it does mean that like any other fandom, it's trivial in the grand scheme of things.
TL; DR:, like anything else, MLP isn't that important and I think you'll feel less segregated when you stop expecting to be vilified. Kind of like those finger trap things where you only get out of them by relaxing.
