Due to problems (or rather - problems with my laziness) with writing prequel and sequel to LBT TV series, stories from my first main LBT universe, I put into safe plans about writing huge LBT story placed in second alternative universe.

Idea was about facing our gang with true villain in LBT world, one of the most dangerous personal enemy: sharptooth dinosaur who taught leafeaters language and used it for haunting and understanding life of leafeaters.
In the same day, I quite reimagined his motives, so he met the gang not by accident, and he dealt with them not only for his personal interest.
But on the second day, after I completed watching this full movie inside my mind, I turned this idea into something very big. With expanding this story in ten times bigger, with adding more characters and their POVs, with traveling to their pasts, including past of Gang, even with reimagining some of their past adventures.

This story has two problems.
Main problem - almost half of events fom this story are alternative versions of the same events happening in my first universe.
Second problem - this story would be much more darker than original movie, with including some very vile actions from sharptooth villain side. I just fear I crossed some lines.

2. A story where an epidemic gets into the Great Valley; however, only the grown ups are affected and it's up to the kids to nurse them back to health; however, only the elders are in danger of dying and need extra care.


I kind of had a similar idea, except it's a epidemic that only effects longnecks, which knocks Littlefoot out and forces Cera to be in leadership of the gang. Ali and Rhett might or mightn't show up strangely immune for plot reasons. Littlefoot would be forced to face the concept of his mortality with his grandparents, Mr. Threehorn and Tria among others think about having to lead the valley without them, and Cera struggles to become a good leader. The valley works together to keep the longnecks healthy while Cera's gang struggle to find the cure. I still might or mightn't write it, but anyone else is free to take up the idea if they want too.

4. After the loss of his grandparents, and his father has gone missing and is presumably dead, Littlefoot has no next of kin living in the Great Valley. Who will take him in until he's old enough to take care of himself? The grown ups are faced with a difficult problem; losing their leaders and trying to figure out what to do about the orphan.


That's a concept I thought about. I kind of think later in the movie/TV series, the grandparents would get along with the other parents of the gang enough to have a contingency plan for their deaths - Littlefoot would, say, live with Cera's family until he becomes old enough to look after himself. In fact, I could see Cera's parents, Ducky and Spike's parents, and Petrie's parents also have that plan if anything happens to them.

I don't think Bron needs to be imperiled in order to make sure Littlefoot stays in the valley. It might take awhile for Bron's herd to come depending on when the grandparents pass and Littlefoot could ultimately decide to stay in the valley (Though he might still take trips with Bron's herd, for example, every other year, or so).

funny: epidemy in Great Valley is reason-explanation in my fanfic universe why herds in LBT1 permanently succesfully stayed in valley: because the most of old residents are gone.

I have a thought to write a story where the LBT characters are anthropomorphic and are placed in present time; in a world with humans. They learn about human culture; although, with human technology, it takes them a while to get used to it; whereas with everything else, it comes naturally for them; such as bathing and/showering, dressing themselves and relieving themselves.

Why are there so many songs about rainbows...

I've been considering starting up a fanfic in which the gang (probably just a few years older than they are in the show) takes Archie back to the Big Water. That's it. That's all I've really thought out. But I do feel the potential is there. Setting this after the show allows the gang to deal with concepts like the increasing responsibilities of growing up, or in Archie's case, old age. It'd potentially give us the chance to revisit Chomper's family, Elsie, maybe even establish a conclusion to Red Claw's arc.

But honestly, I just figured it could explain what the heck an Archelon is doing several miles inland in a cave.
