Five AUs I promise never, ever to write. (Lymond, HP, SPN, House/ every fandom ever, PotC/ Lymond

[ishafel]

1. The one where the Crawfords are, like, the Kennedys. Because how awesome would that be? Maybe Francis was the former Ambassador to the Court of St. James, and Gavin was the former, slightly shady, governor of New York, and Richard was the senator with presidential aspirations who was working against the war with Iraq from within the Republican Party, and Lymond was head of a sort of fanatic, militant version of the Red Cross, and Philippa was a junior senator and daughter of a well-known feminist. And the terrorists, led by Gabriel, kidnapped Lymond's son and dumped him in a refugee camp in western Africa, and Lymond and Philippa had to get him back. Only with less run-on sentences. And possibly Sybilla would turn out to bet he head of the CIA.


2. The one where Snape and Lucius join the French Foreign Legion. Oops, too late. Okay--the one where Lucius Malfoy fights against the foxhunting ban in England, and there is a lot of prancing around in pink (scarlet) coats and striking PETA members with his hunting crop, and in the end storming Parliament.


The one where John Winchester is the singer in a not very successful band, and Dean plays guitar (also, probably Bobby and Caleb are in the band) and there's a lot of driving around the country playing crap bars and sleeping with loose women, and drugs and alcohol, and Sam leaves to join a boy band. But then the rest of the boy band--including Sam's boyfriend, Jesse--is killed in a fire, and for some reason John loses his voice, so Sam comes back and sings and they are suddenly really successful. I may actually have already read this story, in which case my apologies.


This would be kind of a serial fic, set at PPTH and with the House characters doing what they always do, except House hires a new fellow who turns out to be Adam Pierson/ Methos, and the new pharmacist is Severus Snape, and Draco Malfoy is an intern, and Dean Winchester is an EMT, and I could keep going like this forever but I'm sure you would rather I didn't, Carter and Luka from ER, Izzie and Christina from Grey's Anatomy, Roland, Eddie and Susannah from The Dark Tower, Simon from 7th Heaven, Logan from Veronica Mars, and stopping, now.


The one where Lymond and Jack Sparrow end up in the galleys together, and yes, I did start to write this but I thought better of it, which should count for something. Yes, I know that Lymond was about a hundred years before Jack's time. It was called "Gentlemen of Fortune," btw.

Have a nice Monday, flist!

Don`t ant to be a pain in the ass, but wanted to tell you that there are still people out there (at least me! ;-))hoping for a new installment to "Promises to Keep". Please, please, please, pretty please with a cherry on top, write some more of that story!

I know! I'm sorry. I do have a large portion of it written, so I'll try to at least put a cookie up tonight.

Sorry for being pushy again! I`m so happy that yu are still working nit because I liked it from the start. I even put it up on my rec list, although it is only 9 pages long at the moment and no real H/D slash has taken place yet! And when I saw your post I was reminded of the next chapter I was still waiting for, hping you would rather consider continue writing that story than the fox hunt one ;-)

Waiting eagerly for the cookie now. Ummh, yummy, cookies...
