stuff I will probably never write
Feb. 29th, 2008 11:09 pm...even though I totally wish it existed as, you know, finished fanfic. That I didn't have to write. Sigh. Well, consider this me releasing these stories into the Internet, to roam wild and, hopefully, someday grow. In the meantime, a little bit of each:
1. A giant teen-soap crossover superhero AU. Basically, there needs to be a superhero team composed of: Bright and Ephram from Everwood; Rory and Paris from Gilmore Girls; Seth, Summer and Ryan from the OC; and Veronica Mars as Oracle. I think we can all agree that the world would be a better place if this existed.
( The next contact came in the mail: a postcard of the Venus de Milo, postmarked from the Grand Canyon, directing them to a warehouse in St. Louis at three in the afternoon the following Saturday. )
2. WWII in the Temeraire-verse, possibly with some of it done as excerpts from history books like Written By the Victors. Oh man. I have so many thoughts about how this would go, starting with: awesome spy dragons! Partisans getting air-dropped supplies and materiél! Hannah Senesh being partnered with an angry little Plein-Vite who'd lost his captain! The infamous Berlin defection of 1939!
(Please do not tell me how badly I am about to mangle history, thanks.)
( I still wonder what they were thinking, letting the man get so highly placed in the Luftwaffe. )
3. A giant Discworld futurefic about Young Sam, wherein he finds with laser accuracy the single girl in all the world his father will disapprove of most, and romances her: Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Esmerelda Margaret Note Spelling of Lancre. Of course, he doesn't exactly mention that his dad's a duke, and *she* doesn't exactly mention that her dad's a king (she does tell him her mother's a witch, though. He thinks it's neat). So Sam and Meg, each thinking the other is perfectly ordinary, get to know and like each other-- foiling a plot against Lord Vetinari in the process-- until Sam's mother insists that he has to escort some stupid princess to a stupid ball and wear his stupid stupid fancy clothes. Poor Sam.
Other highlights: the Police Academy (founded because Vimes would send his son to the Assassin's Guild school over a whole *heap* of dead bodies), Igors, choosing a new Patrician, and Penny Ironfoundersson.
( Policemen have their own walk. )
Okay, that was fun. Now, back to the stuff I'm *supposed* to be writing.
