DPP: All AU, All the time

Good day to you all, today's post is a little bit on the late side because public transort in England is enough to frequently make you want to kill yourself. But on to happier things :)

Yesterday we talked about our musical inspiration when it comes to writing pilots fic, I have started compiling a new playlist of all your favourites, they were most excellent.

Today's show is slightly different.

I have a slight problem, I suspect that some of you share it, in that I SEE PILOTS EVERYWHERE! So today I thought we could talk about the other films/tv shows/books that you all think are PERFECT for Pilots.What do you want to see as a crossover? What stories would be made better with Kara and Lee as the main characters?

Can't think of any?




The BRILLIANT and as of yet unfinished *cough* The Cutting Edge by [livejournal.com profile] taragel




Beautiful poster by [livejournal.com profile] kag523 with accompanying fic Monkeys in Space by [livejournal.com profile] nazkey which is just really darkly beautiful and manages to evoke the tone of fight club without being fight club, so if you haven't read it yet, do.




Again, poster by [livejournal.com profile] kag523

Along with the strange melding of the two zany genius brains of [livejournal.com profile] kag523 and [livejournal.com profile] nazkey that takes the form of First Impressions which is a Pride and Prejudice crossover that doesn't have any cylons in it, but is wacky and wonderful anyway.

And then there's a whole host of stuff that [livejournal.com profile] kag523 graciously said I could mine from her stores for your inspiration, there are no accompanying fics for these, but you could always fix that if you liked ;)








Hopefully that's enough to keep everyone going! I have to go have a shower but I shall be back with some thoughts of my own, and possibly some incredibly cracked out manips. Have fun!

On Twitter the other day, smack talk about the Red Sox-Phillies game (being pitched by Lee/Beckett) started talk of a crossover with Castle. Not that I've been thinking about it. 'Cuz I really haven't.

I haven't thought about murders in the fleet, in the style of a certain surviving famous author. Or that Starbuck and Apollo would be sent to Cloud 9 to meet said author and his former-Caprican-homicide-Detective/not-girlfriend.

I haven't thought about how Starbuck wouldn't like Castle, maybe until they played some Triad. And that Lee and Beckett might commiserate over their "partners" being loose cannons and sloppy with procedure.

And I certainly haven't thought about anyone getting jealous about anyone else getting attention from the opposite sex, 'cuz that works in too many directions.

Heee! Oh that'd be awesome. I can hear Starbuck annoyed that Beckett plans to chase bad guys around in heels and hairspray but in the end Kate and Kara save the day and bond over how amazing they both are. Then they go to the bar and discuss Michael Trucco.

The thought of Kate and Kara rescuing Lee and Rick... Speechless. :)

and Martha hitting on Lee - with clearly more style than Ellen

i loved that discussion. i was too cut up in work to be able to contribute to it but it was great. and yes, i think that Kate and Lee would get along quite nicely. and after some ambrosia and triad Kara and Rick also. BUT what are we going to do with Sam and Tom Demming?

Sam and Demming existing in the same universe would cause a tear in spacetime and he would be sucked into a wormhole.

so somebody understood my problem. well, maybe it would be an pre-Colonial Day thing where Sam wasn't still in the picture.

or they can be cousins of something?

I'm not working out the arc, because that would take over my vacation next week. ;)

I'm so glad to see that you haven't given this any thought at all bb. ;-)

WRITE IT, will you???
