Two for One 2022 (aka The Crossover Challenge)

Reposting [personal profile] regency's post from last year, with permission.

Two for One is an annual sub-challenge to help people who like crossovers and/or fusions find one another's requests.

To participate, simply copy-paste the following into a comment:
AO3 Name:
Letter Link:
Crossover Type: (ie. crossover, fusion, or either)
Potential Fandom Combinations: (list all combinations you're interested in, ex. James Bond/Ted Lasso, Succession/Squid Game)
Prompts!: (as many and as detailed as you like)

One of the fandoms in each pairing must be one you are requesting for Yuletide; however, the other doesn’t have to be. It doesn’t even have to be in the tagset at all!

Some clarification about crossover types:
Crossovers tend to involve Fandom A's characters interacting with Fandom B's characters or worldbuilding, with everyone retaining their canon backgrounds. Ex. Harley Quinn and The X-Men team up to defeat a villain, or Enola Holmes falls into a portal that takes her to Westeros.

Fusions tend to be AUs in which Fandom A's characters have always existed in Fandom B's setting instead of their own, often replacing Fandom B's characters. Ex. Bucky Barnes as a contestant in the Hunger Games, where Fury and Howard Stark are referees. (A fic like this in which Hunger Games characters also appear would be a hybrid between a fusion and crossover.)

- https://www.delish.com/food/news/a37288/history-of-the-christmas-goose/
According to Dumas, a French chemist "saw a goose turning a spit on which a turkey was roasting. She was holding the end of the spit in her beak; and by sticking out and pulling back her neck, produced the same effect as the use of an arm. All she needed was to be given a drink from time to time."
- The terrible goose's Batman-like origin story
- Goose (and Goose 2) vs Ebenezer Scrooge
- Did one lead an ill-fated Braveheart-style rebellion?
- Having heard tell of the infamous TurDucken: Goose in America, rallying their colonial feathered brethren to save them from this fate before Thanksgiving
-
Get Smart (TV) & The Avengers (TV 1961):
- An unholy, but potentially hilarious, campy alliance of wry Brit humour and Mel Brooksian silliness
- The Avengers in America helping combat KAOS or KAOS making its way to the UK and the CONTROL team sent over to London to aid the Ministry
- Steed partnered with Agent 99 and Emma stuck with Maxwell Smart, and their impressions of each other
- Emma driving Max's 1965 Sunbeam Tiger, impressed by all the gadgets/features; or Max driving the her Lotus Elan, assuming the existence of similar gadgets, only to find none
- The Control agents shocked/feeling sorry for the Ministry ones not having hidden phones everywhere
- Trying to convince Steed and Peel to get into the Cone of Silence
- Steed and Peel too graceful/savvy to walk into Max's invisible, bulletproof wall in his apartment
- 99 bonding with Emma over clothing, but Max surprised by Steed's low-tech accoutrements while Steed appalled by the idea of ruining a perfectly weighted pair of shoes by putting a telephone in them
