There are major possible spoilers for Liberty! to be found under the cut... There are also some significant spoilers for Cucumber. As for Numb3rs and Queer as Folk US, this post is pretty much spoiler-free.
(And yeah, in case you were curious, that icon is a manga version of me, the author. :D)
I've had an idea to start what may well become a rather large-scale fanfic. It'll be a crossover between Numb3rs, Queer as Folk US and Cucumber/Banana/Tofu (although mostly Cucumber, the material on the two sibling shows probably won't be particularly relevant) and set, at least initially, in the QaF world.
I was lying in bed last night thinking what if... What if I dumped Don's team from the FBI from Numb3rs in Pittsburgh on a special case involving a travelling serial killer? But not just any old Pittsburgh. I'm talking about the Pittsburgh from Queer as Folk US where Liberty Avenue, Babylon and Debbie's diner are.
And what if a bi-curious Colby of all people ends up in the nightclub Babylon and ends up meeting, or more likely being hit on by, Brian and Justin?
And then... how about I get Freddie Baxter from Cucumber/Banana/Tofu involved as well? I mean I can totally see him falling for any and all of Don's team too ;)
I have some plans that have got plenty of spunk (and by that I mean plenty of smut, both het and slash) involving a lot of different characters. I mean, I can soooo imagine some of those FBI boys being prime quality fresh meat for the likes of Brian Kinney. I can also picture some of them getting involved in Henry Best's world, and possibly moving into the collective from the last episode of Cucumber. It's not all just PWP.
I guess by making this post I'm giving myself a not-too-gentle kick up the butt to actually write this thing, because there are plenty of strong but pliable characters here that I can really picture interacting. I've been imagining various scenarios in my head all day involving this lot ;)
I have absolutely no idea whether anyone would actually be interested in reading a crossover between Queer as Folk (US), Numb3rs and Cucumber/Banana/Tofu (mostly Cucumber though, the story/world material from Banana and certainly from Tofu is probably not going to be too relevant). Although even if you haven't seen all of these shows then I guess this whole thing just becomes a Numb3rs AU set in a gay village xD
Comments are welcome if I've piqued anyone's interest! :)
