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.)

Letter Link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/183mX86C-3VkUHU10_9aPq-6BsVbGJeAYVWb9Ypn1Bm0/edit?usp=sharing (Asking For It, Turner Series, Twin Peaks, Utopia Avenue)
Crossover Type: crossover, fusion
Prompts:
Inception/Turners. I love the idea of any group of characters with various talents--ranging from street smarts to knowledge of chemistry--working as a team to pull off something with PASIV technology, and the Turners definitely has that type of group. It wouldn't have to be some majorly plotted dream heist though; something using the sci-fi to delve into the psychology of any of the characters would be cool.
The Magicians/any. Brakebills students! You could go the fusion route of implanting a magic school into the time and setting of a canon or still make it in New York.
Penny Dreadful/Twin Peaks. Maybe Laura Palmer is brought back to life by Victor Frankenstein? I'm also just fascinated by the potential parallels between her and Vanessa, being similarly gifted/cursed/doomed, how they might affect each other's stories if Laura was folded in with the PD gang. (I would prefer minimal use of Dorian Gray).
David Mitchell novels/any. This is already built into Utopia Avenue but I've read everything in the "Mitchellverse" and any reference to his recurring reincarnation theme is what I'm about. I love the idea of an Anchorite or more likely a Horologist (if you're not changing the manner of death) taking over the body of a character who canonically dies, or just appearing as an antagonist or a source of help in some strange way. In any case I'm always glad to see Marinus, wherever they may appear, whether characters around them know about their immortality or not.
