So a friend and I are working on a Shugo Chara fanfic, with our OCs.
But we're unsure of...a lot...
We want to include the original cast. Because they just pwn.
But we're unsure of when to start the fic. After the very end? That would make a bit more sense--there would be Guardian chairs open. And we wouldn't really have to edit the original story too much.
But injectiong our OCs into the middle of the story would also make sense--there is already an extablished antagonist[EASTER, and depending on the time frame, Ikuto and Utau] and we know how the established characters react to every situation. drawback--requires less imagination, and is frowned upon by the majority [including myself]

And just by the way, this fanfic is in no way based on the anime. It is in every way based on the manga.
The alternate universe is out because we want the original cast too biggrin

So...suggestions?
