Dear Crossovering, 2017
Jul. 18th, 2017 09:34 pmDear Crossovering Writer,
Hello Crossovering writer or pinch hitter or treat writer! (Sorry to any artists driving by, but I did not have any ideas for art requests this year.) First and foremost, thank you for writing for me! I'm a pretty laid back person (no, really, I know everyone says that, but I really am), so it shouldn't be too difficult to please me. Write what you think I'd enjoy, but also write what makes you happy too, because if you're not enjoying writing it, then that's no fun. So, basically, have fun!
I'm putting mentions of what ships/characters I prefer, however, feel free to write gen if you're unable to write any of those ships. I like gen just fine, so it is always okay and I'd never want someone to write a ship that they don't like. Also, don't let my prompts limit your imagination, if you have an idea you're in love with, just go for it. As long as it doesn't go against my DNWs, I'm sure I'll enjoy it!
Also of note: I am 100% up to date with all canons requested. But feel free to go AU or mess with canon details if it fits the story you need to write.
( My requests! )

Fandoms Requested: Captain America, Revenge
I have been saying ever since Emily Van Camp was cast as Sharon, that this needs to happen. Imagine a world where Sharon and Emily are one and the same, and Conrad is a member of HYDRA and maybe Nolan is the tech genius behind all of SHIELD's gadgetry. (Nolan and Tony Stark would be FAST FRIENDS.) This could easily be a fusion, BUT if you mess with the timeline and go AU a bit, it could be a true crossover. I'm good with whatever works best for you!
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc.: For Revenge, I am an adamant and hopeless Nolan/Emily shipper. I don't expect you to write a shippy fic, but I definitely do not want any other Emily ship involved (unless it's Emily/Amanda, I could go for that). Character wise, Conrad, Victoria, Charlotte, Amanda and Ashley are welcome! As for as Captain America goes, you can pepper in any characters you feel like putting in there. I'm okay with Steve/Sharon as a thing, but based on my above preference, I would MUCH prefer her with Nolan. So do whatever feels right.
Fandoms Requested: National Treasure, The Mummy (1999), Leverage
National Treasure/The Mummy: Yes, I am very much aware these two canons exist in vastly different time periods, but that's why they call it fiction. If you don't want to mess with time travel, maybe Abigail discovers Evie's journals in an archive somewhere and the gang go on the hunt for something with Evie (and Rick) guiding their way through old letters, journals etc. If you don't mind getting more sci-fi with it, there's always the opportunity for one of those historical objects to open up a time portal sending either group of characters backward or forward or meeting somewhere in the middle.
National Treasure/Leverage: WHAT IF BOTH TEAMS WANT TO STEAL A THING? COME ON, IT'S PERFECT. Ben and Parker being excited about stealing or borrowing some priceless artifact! Riley and Hardison bonding over being the geeky tech guys. Eliot being the worldly guy who also speaks German and bonds with Abigail. Team! Shenanigans! Found family! What's not to love?
Leverage/The Mummy: Similar to the NT/Mummy prompts, feel free to get really sci-fi time-travelly with it if you want. Or just go more reality based if you want. Maybe one of Rick and Evie's descendants come to the team for help in finding something that means a lot to the Carnahan-O'Connell family and much like the above prompts, they use what Rick and Evie left behind to help guide their way. (Or flashbacks to Rick and Evie!) Or open one of those time portals, I mentioned above and go for it.
The Ambitious Triple-Crossover Bonus Prompt: If you are my assigned writer and matched to me on 2 of these fandoms, don't even worry about this. This is just a pipe dream and I do not expect anyone to fill it. This is for the tiny little chance that someone matched me on all 3 fandoms OR some very ambitious and kind treater is reading this so... anyway, on to the prompt. What if, a character from each fandom was related to each other. I personally suggest Ben and Parker are cousins and Parker is directly descended from Rick and Evie, making her their great-great-grandaughter or however the math works out, and making Ben their great-great-grandnephew. However, if you have a way to link all 3 fandoms with different characters that you like better, go for it. So maybe there's some artifact that requires the touch of 2-3 members of the same bloodline to activate it, and when that happens, it opens up a portal and voila, we've got a triple crossover in the works. (Credit to![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
galfridian for sparking this idea!)
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc.: For National Treasure, I like all of the main three characters as well as Ben's parents. I am an unrepentant Abigail/Riley shipper, or Ben/Abigail/Riley, canon Ben/Abigail is fine. For The Mummy, Rick, Evie and Rick/Evie are my favorites, but also feel free to include Jonathan if you like. (Please no references to that third movie with the wrong Evie.) For Leverage, my favorites are Eliot, Hardison and Parker and I ship them as OT3, but also in any other combination of 2. I like Nate and Sophie just fine, so feel free to include them if you like, but if they get left out, that's fine too.

Fandoms Requested: Captain America movies, Wonder Woman (2017)
I'm sure there will someday be ten thousand works of fanfic and art crossing over these two fandoms, and there are already ones that exist, so while I'm not being all that original requesting it here... I'm still gonna do it! A few possibilities exist here: Diana could meet up with Steve, Peggy and the Howling Commandos during the canon of The First Avenger and of course, she'd be fast friends with both of them, secretly fighting with the Howling Commandos during WWII. Or, you could have Diana meet up with Steve after he gets unfrozen in modern day. OR, have her know them during WWII and then all those decades later, she sees the headlines when Steve gets unfrozen and runs into him. Or even sneaks into Peggy's funeral after she sees her obit in the paper somewhere.
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc.: For Captain America, I'm cool with the main canon characters showing up so Steve and Peggy are my favorites, but I also like Bucky, Sam, Sharon, Natasha and Howard. I very much ship Steve/Peggy but am also cool with Steve/Natasha, Steve/Sharon, Steve/Sam. For Wonder Woman, of course Diana must appear! Feel free to include any Amazons or any of Diana's new pals she meets after leaving Themyscira (though time periods don't exactly line up). (If you want to go total crossover ship here, DIANA/PEGGY yep yep yep.)

Likes: AUs, fusions, tropes (fake relationships forever and always), snark, banter, adventure, female characters who have agency, superheroes, space, darkfic is fine, so is fluff, anything rated G through NC-17 so go wild there if you want, uhh... most things. I am the worst at this. I love horror movies, so anything dark, scary or gross probably won't bother me too much.
Dislikes: Non-con or dub-con, mpreg, tentacles, scat, watersports, not really super kinky but I'm also not a prude, so, yeah, I really am the worst at this part. And while I don't equate pre-established relationship fic to the items previous mentioned, I'm also... not a big fan. It's fine in the case of ships that are already together in canon, but if you're writing one of my non-canon fics, I'd prefer gen/friendship/pre-relationship/build-to-a-relationship over pre-established fic. Also, I have a weird thing about ankle trauma, so while gore or injuries don't gross me out, any graphic depiction of an ankle injury will, so keep everyone's ankles safe please. (I've had several serious ankle injuries, so this isn't a totally random squick.)
If you have any questions about specifics or need to know about a thing that I haven't mentioned here, please feel free to send a PM togalfridian and she'll be able to answer any questions for you. :)
Thanks again for signing up and I sincerely hope you enjoy your writing experience! I am so excited for whatever you decide to do!

( My requests! )
Fandoms Requested: Evil Dead, Indiana Jones
Evil Dead/Indiana Jones: Indiana Jones vs. Deadites! Indy would find Ash eternally frustrating, but as they both have that dorky badass thing, it would make for great adventures. Maybe one of them gets thrown through a portal or Indy is looking for the Necronomicon and somehow they end up in the same time period together. It could be so much fun.
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc. If you have to use magic or time travel or any other tricks to make these works, feel free, I'm open to all of it! As far as Evil Dead goes, obviously Ash should be the central character, but feel free to use characters from the films as well as the TV series. I only requested the films, so if you don't know the show, don't worry about it. But if you do and would like to include Pablo, Kelly or Ruby, feel free because I'm a fan of both canons. For Indiana Jones, the only important ship is Indy/Marion, but you don't have to write about them if it doesn't fit the story. But feel free to include Marion or any other of the film characters in the story if you wish.

Fandoms Requested: Alias, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Jessica Jones
Alias/Buffy: I figure there's a few ways this could go. You could put Buffy in Sydney's world as a spy or maybe Syd runs into her on a mission and is introduced to this whole secret world of vampires, werewolves and demons that she never knew about. Or, perhaps Sydney is actually a potential slayer who Buffy tries to bring into the fold of her little slayer army. Or, maybe there's a Rambaldi artifact that is in their possession or in the possession of some vampire and both of them are looking for it. Orrrrrrr, whatever scenario you like! (Okay, there's more than a few ways this could go, there are so many ways!)
Alias/Jessica Jones: Obviously, this is my badass women request and what is a more badass combination than Sydney Bristow and Jessica Jones? Like the above, there could be several different scenarios that could work. Maybe the CIA wants to recruit Jessica, but of course, Jessica would never want to join up. Maybe Syd is on an undercover mission that involves a case Jessica is working on. Would love to see how they could find a way to work together despite all their differences.
Buffy/Jessica Jones: I'm not sure Buffy and Jessica would get along (at first), but I think Buffy and Trish would, and Jessica and Faith definitely would. But, I think eventually Jessica and Buffy would come to respect and appreciate each other. It would just be prickly at first! In any case, I'd love to see that dynamic play out somehow. Maybe Jessica finds herself involved in a case that actually involves vampires or demons and ends up meeting Buffy and the gang that way. Or maybe Jessica and/or Trish are potential slayers and get recruited
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc. I'm honestly 100% good with gen fic here. I have no major shipping priorities, so mentions of canon ships are fine (or Will/Syd for Alias). Character wise, all of the main stars of course. For Alias, any appearances by Will, Jack, Marshall or Irina would be fine with me. For Jessica Jones, you can include Luke, Malcolm or Jeri if the story warrants it. For Buffy, the Scooby gang, Faith, Giles, etc. - all okay by me.

Fandoms Requested: The Flash (2014), Spider-Man: Homecoming
So. Mostly I just want Cisco and Ned to meet? Okay, I want more than that, but boy do I really want that. I love that The Flash so joyously uses the alternate Earths to their advantage, so maybe Team Flash ends up on whatever Earth has Peter Parker and his friends. (Or conversely, maybe Peter or one of his brainy friends opens up a door to Barry Allen's Earth.) Both of these fandoms are about adorable groups of brainiacs doing brainy things and saving the day and that's basically what I'm looking for.
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc.: For Spider-Man: Homecoming, I'd rather it just stick to the high school characters - Peter, Ned, Michelle, and so on - though Aunt May can appear if it fits your story. I'd prefer to keep Tony Stark, Happy and Pepper out of it, but if the two groups are talking about their differing earths, feel free to mention the Avengers characters or Arrowverse characters. I really only ship Peter/Michelle (because I'm predictable). As far as The Flash goes, literally anyone from Team Flash I am cool with. Shipping wise, I am who I am so of course I ship non-canon, Barry/Caitlin but I'm fine with Barry/Iris being canon, I just don't want it to be the central focus of the story.So.

Fandoms Requested: Indiana Jones, National Treasure
Part of the reason I love the National Treasure movies so much is that it has that Indiana Jones sense of adventure to it, so these seem like an obvious fit. It might take a little work to get these characters together, so do what you have to do! Time travel? Always a good thing. Or if you don't want to mess with time travel, parallel stories involving one particular artifact or piece of history that Indy looked for in his time, and now Ben/Abigail/Riley are looking for in modern times might work as well.
Ships, no-ships, characters, etc.: For National Treasure, I like all of the main three characters as well as Ben's parents. I am an unrepentant Abigail/Riley shipper, or Ben/Abigail/Riley, canon Ben/Abigail is fine. For Indiana Jones, the only important ship is Indy/Marion, but you don't have to write about them if it doesn't fit the story. But feel free to include Marion or any other of the film characters in the story if you wish.
