First world problem of the day: when you have something to do later on, so you try to think of ways to pass the time between now and then, but end up screwing around doing nothing until you run out of time to do anything. Great job, self.

ETA: So this is basically Wimbeldon with John and Sherlock.

Yes! Adaptation fics are crazy, but fun. I remember enjoying the Shrek fusion a lot, though I'm not sure if I finished it. I'll have to go back and reread it. I'm currently writing my first fusion 'verse, Toy Story scenes with the Avengers, so I totally agree with your sentiments about how making the characters fit that situation while still being at least semi-IC is fun.

Thanks, Bad Reputation's not going anywhere, if you want to dip into it again. Oooh, Captain America and Iron Man as Woody and Buzz is adora-brilliant!
