Oh, It Hasn't Happened Yet.

I really have come to like Ashes to Ashes rather a lot over the past few weeks. It's certainly more unashamedly fun than Life on Mars, and Alex's initially-grating insanity has gradually become really rather endearing. I AM SORRY FOR DISLIKING YOU AT FIRST, ALEX. I WANT ONLY GOOD THINGS FOR YOU NOW. No, hang on, possibly Gene doesn't actually count as a good thing. MOSTLY GOOD THINGS. MOSTLY GOOD THINGS, ALEX.

Speaking of giant mechanical spiders, did I mention that 'A Very Supernatural Christmas' means that I now feel as if my heart is going to burst out of my chest with love whenever I see Dean wearing his amulet? As he wears it all the time - seriously, this isn't even an exaggeration, which is half the reason for my uncontrollable love - this means that I am fairly likely to actually fall unconscious from too much Winchester-adoration before long.

Two days ago, my brother threw salt in my face and shouted 'Back, you demon!' I wish my siblings shared my fandoms more often! (Hang on, that makes it sound as if I like having salt thrown in my face. I, er, am not a particular fan of being - oh, dear, there's an opportunity for a truly horrendous pun here and I'm not sure I can resist - as-sa(u)lt-ed (I'm so sorry). I just love it when people around me are fannish.)

I feel that an entry about Ashes to Ashes and Supernatural should really end with an attempt to cross them over in some way (THESE ARE THE RULES OF RIONA'S LIVEJOURNAL), but in all honesty I'm not sure sending the Winchesters back to 1981 would make any difference whatsoever. I suppose Sam would be quite annoyed not to have his laptop, and some (certainly not much) of Dean's music wouldn't be around, but that's about it.

A post-'Devil's Trap' Life on Mars crossover would be perfect! The idea did fleetingly cross my mind when I saw the episode, but at the time I was too busy going 'OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD' to consider it for long. Sam Tyler and Sam Winchester could get on far too well.

I HAVE A TRULY APPALLING LOVE OF TERRIBLE PUNS. WHEN I SEE AN OPPORTUNITY, I CANNOT LET IT PASS BY. Even if it means going out of my way, apparently.

That's why my brain keeps trying to do Dean/Gene! Because Sam and Sam would be all chattering away, getting homesick for their laptops, and complaining about the downsides of fighting crime/demons with macho skirt-chasers who wouldn't talk about their problems if they were bleeding from the eyes. Dean and Gene would totally roll their eyes, go off for a beer, and talk about manly things like guns, hitting things, and their incredibly intense love for their cars.

And part of my brain is insisting that this would somehow lead to sex.

OF COURSE IT WOULD LEAD TO SEX.

And Dean and Gene rhyme, so clearly they are meant to be together - although I think the level of violence between them might be rather unhealthy.

Sam/Sam would be a lot more sensible about the whole thing, but I'm a bit worried about the emo.

That's why Sam/Sam and Dean/Gene work far better as flings than long term relationships. A few days of constant scuffles or wallowing in emo aren't likely to do any real harm, but in the long run, they're both better off with a counterbalance (in Sam and Dean's case, in a completely platonic way, of course).

As usual, you get no disagreement from me (except perhaps about the platonic part, because I am good at denying the consequences)

Dean and Gene bonding over cars and mocking their less manly sidekicks? Oh, yes. I would very much like to see the development of this glorious friendship.

"And he's always whining, 'I want to go back to school! I don't belong here! I want to finish what I came here to do, then go back where it's all normal!' Like he doesn't love it with me."

"Mine's the same way with that Hyde rubbish. To hear it, you'd think he'd been kidnapped. Does yours look at you like you're something he scraped off his shoe every time you get near a bit of skirt, then fall into bed with the first tart he sees?"

"God, yes. I thought he was just jealous, but he finally managed to get laid, and that didn't help. Does yours think he should be allowed to drive?"

"Daft, innit? Like I'm letting him drive my car."

"Exactly! The Impala's my baby! I'm good to her, she's good to me. If I hand her over to someone else, she's not gonna be there when I need her."
