Yesterday was songfic. Today, let's talk about crossovers!
1. Is there a universe other than BSG where you think that Kara and Lee have a better chance? Or even just work really well?
2. Is there a crossover between non-BSG Katee and Jamie characters that you'd really like to see? Martin Klar from Dollhouse and Sarah Corvus from Bionic Woman? Sherry from White Noise 2 and Stephen from Pulse 2? For me, I'm working on a fic for Frankie Reed from CSI and Matt Devlin from L&O|UK. ;)

Date: 2010-12-29 10:34 pm (UTC)That story actually got me thinking about a/u roles they'd fit into. First one I thought of was Kara/Lee as Emily/Oliver in the movie "A Lot Like Love". (here's the trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRPr34vEbC8)) They'd just fit almost perfectly I think. And it would work out in the end too!! heh
Another I thought would be fun (and also a role reversal) would be Lee as Kat and Kara as Patrick in "10 Things I hate About You"
Also, in my teen years I loved Sami/Lucas as a couple on the soap "Days of Our Lives" and could kind of see them in those roles too. hehe :)
Lastly, I've seen a fic (but haven't read it yet) of them in the roles of Lizzy/Darcy from Pride & Prejudice and think that sounds fantastic!
Ok, that's all I got for now. I haven't seen Katee or Jamie in anything else yet so I can't say on that yet, but your CSI/L&O pairing

Date: 2010-12-30 02:51 am (UTC)I watched the trailer you linked. The story sounds like something out of a AU BSG fan fic lol. So yeah, I can see them in that movie. Right up their alley for sure.

Date: 2010-12-30 12:18 am (UTC)I think my favorite crossover is them in the Hunger Games universe that rayruz wrote with Fight the Break of Dawn. The backstory she crafted for them and Zak just fits so perfectly into that canon. I also love Kag and Naz's First Impressions.

Date: 2010-12-30 07:50 am (UTC)I toy with a lot of AU ideas, and eventually I might even finish some of them. I've been tinkering with a Batman AU for ages which makes me laugh a lot; Lee is Nightwing (the sidekick/son who has graduated into an independent hero but who still has some serious daddy issues), and Kara is a mixture of Catwoman and The Huntress (messed up childhood, sometimes on the wrong side of the law, but with a driving sense of justice and decency and a gift for beating all the Bats at their own games).
I've also been thinking about trying to set a BSG AU in the world of The Iliad. I haven't gotten very far with it yet, but I had fun casting the two sides of the war and I've thought of a few plot twists that might be fun. Just for the heck of it, here's my current cast list:
Trojans:
Leander Hector (Lee)
Priam Adama (Bill)
Laura Niobe (Roslin)
Gaius Paris (Baltar)
Ginevra Helen (Gina/Six)
Nestor Saul (Tigh)
Achaeans (Greeks):
Charis Achilles (Kara)
Patroclus Helo
Cain Agamemna
Kendra Odyssea
Blind Tireseus (hybrid)
It would be a Kara/Lee story, of course, all the more interesting in that Achilles and Hector fight on opposing sides, and of course in the original epic Achilles kills Hector quite horribly. I intend to have some fun with all that. And I just love the opening image of the Greek ships pulling up onto the Trojan shore, and the masthead on the prow of the flagship is a black winged horse carved in wood -- The Pegasus, come to claim the captive woman (Gina) who had been stolen from them.
Anyhow, it's just fun to imagine our heroes in different worlds, and to find that you still know them no matter where they turn up :)

Date: 2010-12-30 08:18 am (UTC)Do you really want me to talk about Prince LeeVaspa of the planet Druidia and Kara Lone Starbuck?
Because....really, I'm not sure we're ready for that.
But, I will say that
And I will re-iterate: a BSG/Star Wars x-over FTW.
cheers.
