Two for One (aka the Crossover Challenge)
(copy-pasting from last year's post)
Optional details are optional, and crossover requests are even more optional than the rest. The likelihood of anyone knowing both fandoms is small, but Yuletide is a time of unexpected delights. You never know!
To play, 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. Stranger Things/Dark Tower, Persuasion/Black Sails)
Prompts!: (as many and as detailed as you like)
One of the fandoms in each pairing must be one you requested for Yuletide, but the other doesn’t have to be. It doesn’t even have to be in the tagset at all!
Some clarification about crossover types, using non-Yuletide examples (this is meant to be broadly directional, since these terms are somewhat fluid, and there are always hybrids):
• Crossovers often involve both sets of characters interacting. For example, a story in which James Bond and Batman team up to defeat a villain would be a crossover. A story in which James Bond travels to Middle Earth would also be a crossover.
• Fusions are often AUs in which Fandom A's characters have always existed in Fandom B's setting instead of their own. For example, a fic in which Merlin was born in a galaxy far, far away, discovers that he has the Force, and befriends a dashing smuggler named Gwaine would be a fusion, especially if none of the actual “Star Wars” characters appear. (A fic where they did appear would be an example of a hybrid.)

Letter Link: https://amyfortuna.dreamwidth.org/586014.html (Exit Sherlock Holmes, Lo, Michael, Marcia Schuyler, Farmer Giles of Ham, The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth Beorhthelm’s Son, and Smith of Wootton Major)
Crossover Type: Either crossovers or fusions!
Potential Fandom Combinations: Any fandom with Middle-earth, especially any of the Tolkien fandoms. Smith of Wootton Major with Stardust. Exit Sherlock Holmes with The Time Machine. Any fandom with Warehouse 13 or Doctor Who. Anything else you can think of, if you look at the fandoms I've written in before and something occurs to you.
Prompts!: Oh, just go wild! I'd be excited for anything you come up with. One where Wootton Major and Wall are the same place, just separated in time, and so is the Faeryland Smith and Tristran both encounter, in a sense? Michael from Lo, Michael encounters Captain Jack Harkness? There are a few more in my letter.
