I love crossovers. I love things that hint at strong connections between crossovers characters especially when the BtVS character is Buffy - regardless of the nature of the connection, though hopefully positive in some way. And I've had a soft spot for Buffy/Norrington since I found a fic of that pairing last year. (Not that I actually know if you're actually intending to go there.)
I really enjoyed these - perhaps not the Riley one so much - but the rest are very good and very strong and I do hope you flesh them out... or at least write more drabbles. *G*
...You found a Buffy/Norrington last year? (Are you able to direct me to it, will you please if you can? *puppy-dog eyes*)
I love crossovers too--though I haven't writtened a lot yet--think they really do have a lot of potential. (And when I think about it, an answer to Mary-Sue, Gary-Stu, even just general OC if you're looking real hard for a lover for a character, but in their 'verse there's no one--always figured just look in a different fandom for their ideal match. XP)
I do want to flesh these out later--I've had an idea of a long-term fic of these things...it's just difficult, and it'll probably take a while. (But maybe continue with drabble-form, who knows?)
Thank you so much for the comments, talk more? (I really do want to know about the Buffy/Norrington you found, and just some more of your Buffy, crossover, Pirates/Norrington opinions...and sorry if it took me a while to respond, just returned to lj. ^^;)
If that doesn't work, just go to tthfanfic.com and click the Movies category, then Pirates and Buffy pairings.
I'd be happy to chat more on the subject but I've got work tomorrow and really need to get some sleep. I just wanted to get you the fic link.
Also? I completely agree on crossover pairings. Even if the matches aren't ones others would necessarily find ideal, my current favourite Buffy pairings are definitely crossovers. *g*
THANK YOU! ^_______________^greedyslayerSeptember 20 2006, 00:54:22 UTC
Oh, thank you so much! ^_____________________________________________^ (Already took a peek at the first part through your wonderful link: sounds great, will continue it later.)
Totally understand, little relieved that you have things to occupy your time away from lj as I do too. ^^;
Crossover pairings can completely hold their own, there's...yeah, like I said before, there's a lot of potential.
(In the wake of Buffy/Norrington, Spike/Jack is my crossover rebound ship; and then they offer foursome. XP And, and...oh, there are many BtVs(Ats)/Pirates ships out there, huh? XP)
Other than that ... yeah! Btvs/Potc crossover. I love how Dawn has a crush on him (who wouldn't, in my opinion). I love the relatedness, but unrelatedness of the drabbles. And I love how Norrington is scared of planes and cars! OH, oh, also love the name Spike assigns Norrington at the hospital - hehe. Could it possible to collide another fandom in here!? Oh, well. Good job; well-written!
Ah, thanks, didn't catch it before. ^_^ (That's what I get for writing at manic speed, but it DID get some creative juices flowing, as I hoped, or at least calm me down a bit.)
Relatedness and unrelatedness...'cause it's rough, that's why it's there, but on the other hand, I was thinking of it as a nifty style for the moment.
Honestly, that's one of my favorite bits too, making Norrington frightened by today's cars and planes. (It's just...I keeping getting these cute images. ^^;)
*smirk* So glad someone caught that--yes, Spike randomly giving the doctors the name "Steve" is a direct reference to Coupling. (But wait...are you saying just completely cross it over? ^^; Maybe another time, another concept. Of course, this makes me think of a BtVS "Tabula Rasa" redux w/ mind-wiped Norrington acting suspiciously likes..."Steve...." XP)

Maybe I should've mentioned that I remembered seeing that icon before somewhere else; the image seems pretty, uh, wide-spread.
