GIP and a sad story

Now, I'd like to take this opportunity to share with you all a very sad story.

*ahem*

Once upon a time, not too long ago (when I was young and innocent), I had a cat. Yes, I have kept many cats. But she was a special cat. She was a gorgeous white kitty with a beautiful, beautiful orange tail (she had the best tail I've ever seen). She was not the smartest of cats, because she had very little practical sense. But she was also a darling - she would sit on top of the television and look down as if she were watching; she would wake me up in the middle of the night with a slap on my face because she wanted to sleep on my pillow; she would grab my pen while I was writing and insist upon sitting on the very book I was reading... And one day, she was gone! We looked everywhere, did everything we could - but she was never found. Maybe she lost her way somewhere (remember, she wasn't a very practical kitty), maybe someone took her away. I have never been able to get over losing her. *sigh*

Sad story, isn't it?

There is a point to this story. scribbulus_ink asked a question on her journal about a story that you'd like to see written. My favourite story that no one has dared to write so far is a LFN/HP cross-over with Snape/Nikita (or Snape/Michael, if you prefer slash), involving love potions, the giant squid, Moaning Myrtle, and a number of fiascos. I have a feeling that if some kind soul writes this story for me, I may finally be able to get over losing my cat.

That will be all.



Harry Potter:

Hmmm. The one that immediately comes to my mind is a long, dark, angsty story featuring Snape and/or Hermione doing a Dr. Faustus (Faust). Snape/Hermione is optional. AU, because I doubt this can actually be fitted in canon.

LFN:

Post S5. Michael and Nikita in Section - dark, angsty and looong. No fluff, *absolutely* no happily ever after. Everyone trying to keep secrets from each other, everyone playing games and betraying each other - for proper reasons, of course. Bitter/bittersweet ending. Presence of Paul and Madeline is optional.



I can think of a few more, but I'll just post this one for now. *g*

So, what are your favourite unwritten stories?

Hmm...now that you ask..

..I'll second the more mission/more evil badies requests. Plus, I won't be shocking anyone by saying I'm a Michael fan, so I never get sick of him as the central character. But enough of the sickly sweet romances, I'd like to see more of him out of his comfort zone...a challenging mission, a profile that goes wrong, some sort of cover he finds uncomfortable. I see him as smart, resourceful and utterly ruthless..seeing how he handles one of those would be very entertaining.

Plus I know I'm a mutant fan here, but I'd really like to see a well-written look at Michael and Simone and how they managed to exist in Section. I liked her character (the little we saw of it) and I think the two of them together would be interesting. :)

I'd give anything for a juicy mission-based story that has Michael the man and not Super!Michael fighting the baddies. I want to know what Michael how that brain of his works. What does he do when he sits in his office working things out? How does he manage to put everything together? How does he overcome the difficulties? What does he feel like when he's doing this? How does he take the last minute decisions on field?

Any takers? *g*

I'd like to read a Simone fic too. Partly because I like Simone, and partly because I want to know what Michael was like back then. I *do* not want a sugary sweet romance, however (yuck!). And I'd like to see a human Simone for a change - not an uber-bitch or a sweet angel of mercy.
