Oh goody - I'm first again - Let's see. I've already done LnC/Superman Returns
So this time I choose....
Insert drumroll here....
Stargate SG1 (SG1) with Trask.
(Sheriff Rachel will be there too, along with Wayne Irig. Hey, Smallville's a very small town.) :rolleyes:
I just remembered all my X-files stuff went missing along with some other stuff while cleaning the bookshelves.

Well, there is a bunch of them I'd love to see, but I'll volunteer for Star Trek: Voyager with Captain Janeway (at least) guest starring with Lois, Clark, and Rachel Harris. (Expect it to be short...)

Here is what you need to indicate when you sign-up: 1. Series you are crossing over with. 2. Character(s) from #1 that you are picking. 3. Featured guest LnC character(s) you are going to pair #2 with. I'll do an Inspector Gadget/Curious George crossover with the main characters from each show and Agent Call-me-Dan Scardino. BTW, Coolgirl, one thing I learned from Nanowrimo is that you really don't need more time. Just try to write for a half hour to an hour and a half a day without missing and you can put out a phenomenally long story. Don't edit until you're done or you end up spending so much time rewriting that you never finish. Regards, Elisabeth

Okay, I call Sesame street. Not sure which SS characters I'll use, though, but let me go ahead and reserve the basic muppets and kids. Most likely Big Bird, since...it just isn't sesame street without Big Bird! LnC characters: Superman. Lois and Clark might get a mention, but Superman will be doing most of the interacting. Am I limited to who I name here?

Was asked a few questions offline that deserve to be answered online as they are really good questions. 1.Why do I have to name the characters which I want to pair up (sometimes, a story just develops and you don't know who will end up being part of it or not) instead of just naming the show I want to crossover with?If you are going to do a general crossover between shows without specifically pairing up individual characters from both fandoms, then that is ok. I realize I said in an earlier thread that I was looking for specific pair ups, but as I listened to the wisdom of my wife, I realized that some people just aren't wired that way and so this has developed into an anything goes (please keep this PG or PG13!)In that case just say various characters with various characters. 2. By "pairing them up", do you just mean that they all have to appear in the story, i.e. is it not important, who is more of a lead and more of a supporting character, or should I really set them up in pairs? (This is probably the most stupid question, but I'm just making sure)The only stupid question is the un-asked one. Doesn't really matter who is the lead and who is the support. In one crossover pairing that I read, Dawn from Buffy and Draco Malfory form HP were the main leads in the story. They can be however you want. Does this work on a "first come, first served" basis or could I also write a crossover with a show already "taken" by another author?As you can see from my example, I decided to take Stargate, just like Dandello (heck, I'm even using Trask!) All really good questions. Glad that they were asked. My New Year's Resolution is to be an easy taskmaster...NOW GET TO WRITING!!! James

Ok, I'm going to try, but don't get mad at me if I can't finish!
1. Series you are crossing over with. -Frasier 2. Character(s) from #1 that you are picking. -Frasier and Roz 3. Featured guest LnC character(s) you are going to pair #2 with. -Lois for sure and um, I'm thinking about another shrink, Dr. Friskin from the series, but we'll see. Possibly Dr. Maxwell Deter, DR. McCORKLE... Can anyone help my tired brain out? Were there ANY other Shrinks I'm forgetting? I'd like to use them all if I can.

I think you got my muse dwelling on Firefly. I bet I could pull it off if it's just a earthbound ocean going boat as compared to a spaceship. Okay I call the crossover with Firefly.

And didn't Martha take some psychology courses at some point (maybe Dr Frasier Crane gave a guest lecture at Smallville community college ). I think I vaguely remember a quip by Jonathan about that, but I could be wrong ... Looking forward to your story, Eva

Oh heck, I'll give it a go I drove two hours in the back seat today and since the engine was too loud to talk, I now have a story outline for a crossover fic in my head. 1. Series you are crossing over with. Men in Trees 2. Character(s) from #1 that you are picking. Patrick, Annie, Jerome, probably Buzz, Ben, Chief Celia, uh, and yeah, maybe I should include Marin and Jack, too 3. Featured guest LnC character(s) you are going to pair #2 with. Lois, Clark, Perry, guest appearances by other newsroom staff Special guest star: the KING Btw, I have posted a Poll about this crossover fic-a-thon over in Fun With Polls, it would be great if you took the time: This Poll Will Change Your Life Thanks and looking forward to the fic-a-thon experience, Eva

I wish I could have a go, but I'm lousy at writing fanfic to request and I have to give my games writing priority at the moment, so I'll have to sit this one out.
