Two for One 2022 (aka The Crossover Challenge)

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.)

Potential Fandom Combinations: Crying Suns/FTL: Faster Than Light
Prompts!: These two roguelike games have very similar mechanics. You're moving from sector to sector in outer space, and you have limited resources like fuel (which you use to make FTL jumps from star to star) and scrap/money (which you use to upgrade your ship). Along the way, you will meet enemy ships and need to fight. If you lose, you have to start a new run, but there's a potential to unlock different styles of ships or supporting officers that you can use in the future. FTL came first, and Crying Suns is sort of a homage/successor. However, in FTL, there's little in-character connection between different runs, other than the mechanics you've unlocked. In Crying Suns, your player character is a clone, so each run is a new cloned body, and in some sense you "know" you're in a roguelike game. I would be interested in anything that compares/contrasts/lampshades these parallels!
