For the "fannish top five" meme,
st_aurafina asked for "five superheroes who could make a life in Twin Peaks." Which is...possibly the greatest prompt in the history of prompts. I daydreamed about this the entire time I was writing the not-a-thesis OF DOOM.
1. Smax (Top Ten)
Smax would do just great in Twin Peaks. It's pastoral, like his home world, and pretty strange, like his home world. The residents don't pry into each others' sex lives, so his relationship with his sister would be no big deal. And Smax is a good cop - Harry would have him deputized pretty much immediately. People would probably talk about the fact that he's blue at first, but I think they'd get over it quickly enough.
2. Huntress (Birds of Prey - TV)
I could see Helena escaping New Gotham after something particularly bad went down, and ending up in a place like Twin Peaks. She would work at the Double R or maybe tending bar at the Great Northern, because she has bartending experience. She would pretty much hate Twin Peaks at first - she's very much an urban dweller. I think that once she figured out there were always French Canadians who are up to no good to beat up on, though, she'd be fine.
3. Squirrel Girl (Marvel)
This is pretty much a gimme - woods=squirrels=armies to help Squirrel Girl in her campaign for goodness. We know that she is happiest away from big cities like New York, and I could see her coming to Twin Peaks after hearing about the plight of the Pine Weasel. Squirrel Girl vs. the Packards!
4. Mina Murray (League of Extraordinary Gentlemen)
OK, so it's canon that Mina has been to Twin Peaks, which is where this comes from. In discussing this with the boy, however, this got expanded into a personal fanon in which Mina Murray is the founder of the Bookhouse Boys (The other day we watched the episode in which Harry tells Cooper about the Bookhouse Boys and he keeps referring to all past and future members as men, which rubbed me the wrong way. So, I now believe that Mina founded them, and they changed the name and retroactively purged all feminine influence later. Don't judge!).
5. Scott Summers (X-Men)
When things go down the tube in his life, Scott tends to run. Sometimes to a place where nobody knows him and he can perform physical labor (like a fishing boat). I envision Scott running to Twin Peaks to work at the mill some time. (I know they burned down the mill, but it or something similar has to get rebuilt eventually, because 90% of the town worked there. Why do we not see a major recession after the mill burns down? This has always bothered me.) This will work very well until his life catches up with him, as it always does, and he goes back to the X-Men. He will always have pleasant memories of that pie, though. Everyone does.
