Well, I didn't see a misc. FSN idea thread, so I'll just put this up:
We know the Grail creates bodies for the servants, but what if there was already a body there for the taking?
Case in point - Emiya Shirou.
Technically, Archer is Shirou, so what if when Rin summoned Archer, she screwed up enough that instead of losing his memories, Archer's soul got shoved into Shirou's body (like some sort of possession)? I guess Archer's memories could still be gone, but I don't think it would work as well.
Now you could either have it so Archer possesses Shirou at his house, or the possession could happen first and then Archer/Shirou gets dumped into Rin's house like originally happened.
I'd probably go with the second route, since I'm pretty sure if Archer keeps his memories and then suddenly finds himself in his old body he'd try to off himself, so the only way to stop that is for Rin to use a command seal.
Of course, then there's the whole "Archer playing the part of Shirou" thing to try and fool everyone else, and I'm sure he'd hate acting like that again.
And would Archer/Shirou still summon Saber?
Oh, and the original Shirou is in the "back seat" until the Grail War ends. He's aware of everything that's happenning, but can't do anything. Maybe he and Archer can have telepathic conversations or something.
Hmm...
...
What? At least I didn't post my crack idea where Zaraki is summoned as Saber. h43r: :evil:
Anyway, questions, comments (other ideas)?
