Things have been slow on the boards lately. No one seems to write anything. Even the FFMB has been slow. I suppose I could always post something to get people to talk, but I've not been feeling much like posting things either. Why am I complaining?

So anyway, I've been cruising the net in search of something amusing, and I came across this: The Pottersues Crossover Challenge. Now I'm imagining what it would be like to have Michael and Nikita in Hogwarts. Or Harry Potter in Section One. *cackle*

Operations: (storms in) What do you mean you won't handle guns, Mr. Potter?

Harry: This. Stupefy!

Or maybe:

Operations: Michael, there is something I want you to handle.

Michael: (blank stare)

Operations: My old friend, Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has asked for our assistance regarding something.

Michael: *blink* Witchcraft and wizardry?

Operations: That's right. There's this boy, Harry Potter. (presses the remote, and holo-screen with Harry's image comes up) He needs someone to protect him from his enemy, Lord Voldemort. For that, I want you and Nikita to go to Hogwarts and act as his bodyguards. Mr. Birkoff is working on the intel - I want you to prepare the mission profile. Remember, it is ab-so-lutely necessary that we protect the boy. Is that clear?

Michael: Of course. (Starts to walk away)

Operations: Michael? (Michael stops, turns around) Make sure Nikita keeps her mind on the mission. Be careful of the Potions Master.

Michael: Of course.

We need a glossary like this in the LFN fandom.

I'm sooo glad to know I'm not the only one who has been staring disappointedly at the computer screen, whining "Amuuuuuuuuuse meeeeeeee!" Apparently it is a worldwide phenomenon. Must be sunspots or something.

I *love* the crossover. *Snort*

Wait till you hear the next part. *eg*

And then, Michael and Nikita go to Hogwarts to protect poor Harry. Dumbledore reveals that Michael and Nikita are actually really, really powerful wizards, and Michael is really the Heir of Godric Gryffindor. Everyone steps in to teach them magic, because it's now upto Michael and Nikita to save Harry from Voldemort. Unbeknownst to everyone, Voldemort recruits Red Cell to foil Dumbledore's plans. Meanwhile, all the girls are in love with Michael, and Malfoy has a crush on Nikita. Snape falls madly in love with Nikita (or Michael) and tries to feed her (or him) a love potion...

Nice one!

but on the subject of movie cross-overs, I was whining about historical accuracy in fanfics to Jen the other day, and then I drifted into imagining an LFN/Gone With the Wind crossover.

Now that would be something to see, wouldn't it? Because if there was ever a man to give Michael Samuelle a run of his money it would be CG's Rhett Buttler - I'm going all starry-eye again just thinking about it.

Personally, my money would be on Rhett. ;)

IMHO, the historical fanfics are usually inaccurate due to simple lack of research on the author's part. Most authors also make the mistake of trying to use strange archaic words and phrases, which makes the conversations sound very stilted.

Now that would be something. But I refuse to comment on that last part.

Yep. Me, too.

No new chapter or any contribution whatsoever of any kind from me, and yet I'm cranky that there's nothing to read. Heh. Contrary bunch, ain't we?
