I seem to have an obsession with ridiculous crossovers.
From my misspent youth, we have that Glee/Virals fic and its M*A*S*H/Virals successor, neither of which were very good. These were followed by Virals/Welcome To Night Vale, which was at least slightly less terrible, Mary Sueism aside.
These were the only ones I ever actually wrote (and you may have noticed a theme in them)
But it didn't stop there.
Additional concepts included a crossover between Lockwood & Co. and Runemarks, and a three-way Hogwarts AU crossover featuring characters and adapted plotlines from Runemarks, Lockwood & Co., and The Order of the Stick. Fortunately for all of you, the former has been put on the backburner indefinitely due to being heavily Jossed, and the latter was a sleep-deprived mess that was abandoned within the week.
Even my current projects seem to end up as crossovers.
On my WordPress, I have a great number of posts about an AU known as the Kelvin Expansion, in which I reimagine Star Trek as if the whole franchise took place in the timeline created by the 2009 reboot. Now, this was intended as 100% Star Trek. Then Loki - to be precise, the fourth iteration of Loki as introduced in the final issues of Loki: Agent of Asgard - turned up, and brought Verity Willis with them. And then the SCP Foundation got involved. And then Greg and Mila and their colleagues from the Planet Rescue (aka Petz) games showed up. It's still mostly Star Trek, but, well...
Lokiverse may also end up low-key crossing over with Planet Rescue, and that AU is itself a fusion of a whole bunch of Marvel-based continuities, but somehow UFO AU managed to escape unscathed.
And then one day I thought to myself 'hey, you know what Star Trek really needs? Godzilla.' And so there is now a neatly labelled Google Doc in which I outline what Star Trek's Prime Timeline might have looked like had the first three movies from Legendary's MonsterVerse been pre-First Contact historical events.
Perhaps I need help.
