Right please everyone I need all you help! I am doing my courswork at the moment and we all read HDM as a class. And now for coursework we have to write two stories.
1) Will and Lyra reuniting.
How do you think I should do think I should do that?

2) Marisand Asriel. While they were seeing one another when she was married to Edward.
My main question is how many years older than Marisa should Asriel be?

I would be immensly grateful for suggestions or fanfiction of your own! Thanks! :D

You approach either of those topics and hand it in as coursework they damn well better fail your ass o_O And Wwhat kind of course are you doing exactly that rewards blatant plagarism?

I do think you shouldn't think do that.

Maris was the partner of Niles Crane, not Asriel Belacqua. You want a Frasier fan site.

Having read that link, Pete, all I can suggest for you is. There'll be Assam mixed with Lapsang Suchong, and custard creams. But you're getting nowhere near the bloody cheese knife.

2) Marisand Asriel. While they were seeing one another when she was married to Edward.

Well if this was your set coursework fair enough...the first title, as people have said, maybe misses the point of the ending. PP did leave a bit of a window open for communication between them - Xaphania tells Will especially that with Mary's help he might learn to be a shaman and move between the worlds in spirit. So that might work as a device.

Really though as you can tell by the hostility of the people here to the suggestion it's probably not a great aspect of HDM to choose for a story. I hope your coursework goes well though, and try and avoid reading other people's work, as it will influence your own ideas whether you realise it or not :)

We don't do your homework for you, you know.

1) Will and Lyra reuniting.

You shouldn't. It is most definitely not permitted.

2) Marisand Asriel. While they were seeing one another when she was married to Edward.

As it doesn't say anywhere it's up to you to decide you you feel about it. Use your imagination.

Unless you meant Maris Piper, in which case you need to go here

I was wondering when you were going to turn up, Rosie. Go on, sex and destroy!

I think you should ignore everything people here have told you and have them get back together in a dream - You know, like that whole season of Dallas where Bobby dies and then his Missus, Palm, wakes up and it turns out she dreamt the whole season?!

As for the other topic - maybe Asriel was a kiddie fiddler and that decides the whole "was he really a bad guy?" debate too...

OK OK, I'm obviously taking the piss, but really - it is your homework and you should really form your own ideas....

No I am sorry you miss interupreted what I was saying. I just needed your opinions not to copy! I am sorry if I annoyed you!
Do you think Asriel should be ten years older than her or older?

Woof, woof... okie, I believe you. I know I've made the same mistake.

Why should Asriel be older than Marisa ?
He is a young ambitious man, isn't he ?

Yes I know but I just get the feeling thta he is older than Marisa. In the HDM books.

Marisa is just so passionately in the prime of life, where Lord Asriel has this whole mature, powerful air. Therefore she has to be younger than him. :P
