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.)

I'm not much of a crossover person, but I like fusions, and my gymnastics RPF request lends itself really well to that sort of treat. You can check my 2015 letter too for additional ideas, but basically (in addition to my main request, which is a canon-setting f/f story) I asked for team gen involving heists or murder mysteries, and in that other year's letter I mentioned two teen books with silly plot points I like, so there's a lot you can do there, I think. I'm also real fond of Leverage, and could see a crossover with Tomb Raider there.
