Big Bang waffling

A whole bunch of Big Bangs sign-ups are coming up, and I am at a bit of a loss. I have several story ideas which could work for the [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang, but I'm floundering a bit for the rest.

The one which is causing me the most angst is the [livejournal.com profile] sncross_bigbang. I've written one crossover in the past, which was my Burn Notice crossover for [livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen, so I know I can do it, but I'm still being all waffly about it, because I don't know which show to cross SPN with.

Oh, what the hell. Let's have some polls!

[Poll #1663730]

Sorry, but I couldn't choose between silent!verse, faeries, and Season 6 Sam because they all sound awesome to me.

NCIS, Burn Notice, and House MD because they are all set on Earth in a modern setting and can be crossed over without too many canonical changes in either one. Some other fandoms I can think of, but may have to involve some time travel, fusioning, or something else to work, are Star Trek Reboot, Sanctuary, and Firefly/Serenity.

Yeah, Burn Notice worked well when I did it last year, I'm just not sure about, y'know, a plot that would work with it this time around.

I'm not a huge fan of House, but I've seen crossovers done really well with that. :)

I kind of like the idea of Sanctuary... I wonder if they'd consider Sam an 'abnormal?'

Well, you don't have use Burn Notice...unless you want to.

House has interesting unlikable characters and awesome banter, that's why I watch it.

Hmmm... Maybe they would.

I can see Magnus and Will going after Sam in the earlier seasons... maybe they've got a small collection of psychic kids?

[identity profile] ianthe-echo.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Ones they've picked up over the years.

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... that could work.

So they pick up Sam, and maybe that leads to Dean trying to break into the Sanctuary to rescue him... unless I set it in later seasons? That way we introduce the Sanctuary to the very freaky notion of angels... :D

Either way it could work, though I think setting it the later seasons would make it interesting.

Just imagine Magnus meeting Cas. *grins*

EPIC.

And also meeting up with Tesla.

"You're totally not a vampire."

"Look, who is the genius, here? You or me?"

"Actually, that'd be Sam."

"Why am I even arguing about this?"

"I don't know. Why are you friends with Jack the Ripper?"

:D

[identity profile] ianthe-echo.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
*laughs* It could totally work.

And since Christopher Heyerdahl plays both Alistair and John Druitt (aka Jack the Ripper) it could get interesting fast.

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Damn, I totally forgot about that! Which is saying something because I kept seeing Alastair every time I saw Druitt...

*ponders*

It's okay. Heyerdahl has been in multiple shows and movies, http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0382216/.

Oh god, could you imagine Dean and House getting into it. *gryns* That would be a show I'd buy tickets to watch!! >:)

I can. *smiles* Oh the banter would be amazing.
