Cliches are my Kryptonite

I was looking at [livejournal.com profile] morgandawn’s fan fiction tropes and my first thought was, well, I haven’t done all of them. Like, I haven’t done amnesia. And then I thought: no, actually. Twice is almost exactly like never, right? I’m pretty sure I never had Mulder & Scully bake cookies, though they did do home maintenance (gotta patch those bullet holes somehow). And now that I think about it, I did have Clark bake cookies for Lex. He was bodyswapped with Lex at the time. Is that a Double Fandom Word Score?

Anyway, I could still use some prompts for Eight Crazy Nights, getting closer than ever. If you want to suggest cliches, I’m obviously game. And, um, if someone wanted to beta an XF story, I wouldn’t say no. Fair warning: this story is mostly so old that the filename is in all caps, because I apparently began it on a computer that didn’t even use Windows. But by God I was asked for a sequel to Deny Nothing and there it was on my computer, so I’m going to give it the college (or, more accurately, law school) try.

random prompt four eight crazy nights (this only works if you're familiar with both fandoms, but it's random and I'm sleepy and I figure it won't hurt you to read the weird ideas in my head....?)

Sam and Dean end up in the Firefly dimension. Dean meets Mal. Life is awesome. Bonus points for any angels that tag along (Castiel, Uriel).

the something else: I have no idea. Uh, Mal as a (very disgruntled) damsel in distress who must be saved by Dean? (Only, not actually a damsel. But in a sticky situation.)

I wonder what the Winchester brothers would think of Reavers. I think Sam and River could get along like two brilliant, tormented, psychic peas in a pod. (And Simon and his crazyface overprotective brother syndrome would maybe see kin in the Winchester craziness)

I think that Miranda would be very full of haunted people, actually. Hmm. That's Serenity, though, not firefly, and I'm dubious about serenity because -- WASH. Yeah.

Anyway, I hope that maybe some of this spawns evil plotbunnies to proliferate and frolic within your writerly brainspace. No matter what you end up writing, I'm sure it'll be awesome!

I will think about it! I'm not sure how good I'd be at crossing over a rationalist, sf universe with a fantasy one but I love them both to pieces.

**happy wiggle** even that you would consider it makes me happy! Whee :D
