So, because I'm insane, I signed up for genprompt_bingo again. Not sure about this card - there were loads of great prompts in the categories I picked for my opt-in card, and I only got a couple of them. Some of the ones I've got I'm rather Meh about, and one I had on my last card, probably should have asked for that to be excluded, but... Well,

I'm sure it'll happen. All you need is the right idea that speaks to both fandoms. You're being more open-minded about it than me, though, so that's good (helps that you've written other crossovers before); I was determined to never write a crossover of any kind...until I wrote one, lol. *blushes*
Hardware and Software sounds like it'd be a good one for Tosh, since both terms can apply to computers and technology. Scapegoat...maybe Jack got into Ianto's food stash again, and is trying to blame Nosy? The Tradesman prompt...huh. Maybe aliens using Earth as a slaughterhouse, because human flesh is a delicacy on some other world?
Heirs...I'm glad I didn't get that one; that really sounds hard. How UNIT got Jack's vortex manipulator? Kate did say they acquired it after one of his deaths--presumably something that happened to him after Miracle Day, since he's still got it then.
Water and Water Sprites. Okay, lol; nothing like a bit of repetition. What were the odds? I don't remember which category Water was in, so I don't know which one I got that was different in that one; but I got Energy Beings.
Water...the precinct having to deal with a flood, or Dee has to fix leaky pipes at the orphanage? Or perhaps Bikky trying to help Ryo with a leaky pipe at the apartment, and just causing total disaster?
Let's see...water sprites...there are a lot to work with. Undine, Melusine, nixies, kelpies/selkies; I first thought of sylphs, but I think those are air beings. The Naiad, the vila, the rusalka...there's also Ceratopteris thalictroides, but that's a plant that seems to have "water sprite" as a colloquial name. Jenny Greenteeth/Peg Powler?
OMG, why don't I just make this easier for both of us? Here: Water Spirit Wikipedia category.

Thanks for the link, that should help =)
Cardiff is by the sea, so I might do something with that. The Heirs one, I could do something with either Ryo or Bikky, left something by parents.
I like making Nosy a scapegoat, lol!
I think I'm going to look at other trades, see what else I could go for. I don't want to do another gory one if I can help it. Hardware/Software would be great for Tosh, I just don't have much computer knowledge so it could be tricky.
I don't like writing crossovers, except when I do, lol!

You're welcome; I sure hope it sparks something. :D
*giggles* Nosy does seem like he'd be perfect for that sort of thing. Sounds like he gets into so much mischief on his own that blaming him for something would just seem the obvious out for anyone with a thing or two to hide, lol!
Any ideas for the Wild Card?

I like the opt-in idea - you can still exclude prompts and it narrows the number of categories the prompts you get can come from. I was hoping to give myself a better selection of prompts, but I probably should have excluded more...
Nosy's an ideal scapegoat because no one can stay mad at it for long anyway *pets the Fluff*
