Jan. 21st, 2012 07:41 amHappy Caturday, everybody, everywhere!
It's been a great week here at N_T. I've smirked, laughed, and cheered my way through a lot of amazing comments. You get two more days of my poking and prodding before the fabulous

In case you missed it, yesterday's comments included a thread on Kara as the Muad'Dib from Frank Herbert's Dune. That got me thinking about other crackfics and crossovers. So, shippers, today I ask you to tell us:
What are your favorite crackfics/ crossover fics? Are there any crossover/ crackfics that you want to see out there and haven't? What do you like about crossover fics as a writer or reader?

Previously on N_T:
- Monday:
workerbee73 encouraged everyone to shout to the skies about how Pilots Are Love with essays and cracky haikus - Tuesday: we had lots of thinky thoughts re: BSG canon fashion & style
- Wednesday: kind of like a daytime talk show for fandom but without the babydaddy drama, we discussed what we don't know about Kara & Lee
- Thursday: we had snark o'clock (cheaper than happy hour!) with pics, fic recs, vids, and more
- Yesterday: we analyzed the show bible and posted about our head!canon for Kara & Lee.

Firefly

And yes... SPN (I am determined to write pilot Vampire Hunters one of these days.)
(The good thing about BSG, is that there's the very 'real' side of it that can be crossed over with any political/criminal/current affair/war genre show, as well as spiritual/ethereal and sci-fi.)

Date: 2012-01-21 01:42 pm (UTC)I do have an idea for Adjustment Bureau/BSG crossover and actually have it mostly mapped out. SOMEDAY! ;)
My favorite crossover is probably Aegis (http://users.livejournal.com/wisteria_/993982.html) by

Date: 2012-01-21 01:55 pm (UTC)Kara slammed into the shack, came up and pointed the shotgun filled with rock salt into Dean’s face; there to find a strangled Sam gasping on the floor and Lee naked over the table from where the vampire had wanted to drain the life out of him. She lowered the weapon.
“Took your time getting here, Starbuck!” Dean exclaimed spitting out a tooth.
“Frak you, it’s your crappy Impala’s fault. Thing wouldn’t start!”
“The car’s a classic,’ Dean grumbled, leaning down to pick up Sam. ‘Needs lovin’ is all.”
“How about me?” Lee interrupted, a goofy, drugged look on his face.

Date: 2012-01-21 02:32 pm (UTC)And once upon a time there was an epic Doctor Who/Life on Mars crossover fic that had the Doctor saving Sam or something...I never finished it because I started it before I ever watched LOM and then didn't come back to it...but a LOM/Ashes type fic in which our Pilots could be reunited would be lovely. Or in which the series was the alternate reality...although that's been done with Irreplaceabilty.... It sounded better in my head :)

Date: 2012-01-21 03:07 pm (UTC)As for Aegis, no, you can't read that fic enough (I'm rereading it right now). I can't count the number of times I've gone back to reread it-- and it's still so good!
