As seen on yahtzee63's lj --

The Hypothetical AU Meme: Take any one of the fandoms you know I write AND give me another time period (Ancient Rome, Regency England, etc.). I will then explain what story from that fandom I would AU in that era.

It looks like fun, and I am here all afternoon -- meme me!

It's really just the thought of Jack Bristow as a cowboy, isn't it?

[timesink]

I think it's Irina as a secret Mexican bandit.

Oh, okay, Jack in a big long duster, too. Victor Garber could rock that.

That's awesome. I'm willing to admit to being shallow: cowboy hats are hot.

(For some plot related reason, at some point, Sydney must absolutely crossdress.)
