The Basic Premise Is 'Cardiff Is Silent Hill'.

I have a vague idea for a Torchwood/Silent Hill/Top Gear/Doctor Who/The Real Hustle/Sherlock Holmes/Life on Mars/Stargate SG-1/Final Fantasy XII crossover formulating in the back of my mind. This is almost certainly [livejournal.com profile] draegonhawke's fault. And there's every chance that more fandoms may come into it, as the TARDIS and the Stargate are involved. I am obviously doomed.

Great Big Plotfics really aren't my area of expertise, so it'll be interesting to see whether I'm actually capable of, y'know, writing something with a plot, and of making sure that I give characters an actual Significant Role instead of just including them for the sake of getting another fandom in (I admire [livejournal.com profile] draegonhawke so much for her ability to do this). It'll be especially interesting to see whether I'm capable of writing it without totally ripping off [livejournal.com profile] draegonhawke's Amazing Nine-Way Crossover-In-Progress, especially the two fics would have seven fandoms in common.

Of course, I'm making the token effort to resist the utterly ridiculous idea, but I appear to have failed even more than usual, as I already seem to have written a tiny snippet of the Doctor inviting Sam Tyler into the TARDIS and sent [livejournal.com profile] dracothelizard several e-mails of ideas for the fic IN ENTHUSED ALLCAPS. Oh, dear.

(Also, this is a plea for The Real Hustle fanfiction, because, um, there's almost none! When I say 'almost none', I mean 'there are exactly two people in the entire world who have actually written any'. Come on; you know making up bizarre scams to write about would be fun, don't you? At this stage, I'd be happy with even a quick cameo, to be honest. Write about Balthier, Jack and Fran running across Jess, Paul and Alex, an unexpected rival team of sky pirates (much more efficient than the Clarkson/Hammond/May sky-pirating trio, obviously, and oh dear I find this idea worryingly appealing and I really don't need two absurd too-many-fandom crossovers on my mind right now). Have them nick Jeremy's car in your next Top Gear fic. You know you want to. TOGETHER, WE CAN CREATE A FANDOM FROM SCRATCH.)
