I totally don't get crossover fic.

With respect to...? :-P

Any of it, really. I mean, I can get Doctor Who/Torchwood or Buffy/Angel, but when people start mixing Firefly and Harry Potter...I don't understand how you'd make that work.

More power to the people that write it. I just don't get it. :p

hehehe!

I once read and oddly fascinating HP/Boondock Saints crossover! Very interesting, to say the least.

I don't mind it if you somehow make it fit and not just have them know each other since they were children or something! :-P

*jumps in*

Have you ever read any Boondocks Saints/Supernatural fics? OMG, yes, two fandoms with brothers that are totally doing it? WORD.

Do have that HP/BS link? I'm intrigued.

Ohhh, gotta go check crack_broom now. It was a bit far back in the crossover category. Really good things you find there.

One of my other fave H/D fics was found there. It was a HP/Anita Blake crossover fic.

Mmm, werewolves...

Gah me either! They are so strange to me. Worlds just cannot collide like that. They can't!

But but... I have Woodgreen and that's a massive crossover XD (granted AU).

It depends on the worlds crossing over, imo. As long as the writer can make sense out of how the hell those two worlds manage to cross, and give me this 3rd world in which those 2 exist in a seamless thread, I'm all over it.

Case in point, my secret obsession to Heero/Usagi XD was and will likely always be the pairing people will question my sanity for.

Give in to the glory that is Edward Cullen/Tom Riddle.

I totally agree. What's the point? I don't like it but then...to each their own. ^__^

All of the Super Smash Bros. titles from Nintendo are considered "crossover fiction" on Wikipedia, I've learned. I never suspected video games could be considered fiction.

I love Doctor Who/anything, because you can just about do anything thanks to the TARDIS, lol.

Oh, and I'm a sucker for Supernatural crossovers. I've actually read some pretty decent ones where they spilled over into the HP 'verse. I wish had my old links, because there was this one where Dean is a squib, but hangs around because Sam is super good, and instead teaches a car class with the Impala that's magickal.

Well, it's better than my mangles summary, I swear. :D Oh, and Dean's a Hufflepuff and Sam's a Slytherin, I think. XD

Well, I wrote a fic for Animaniacs, but used characters from another series. Of course, it wasn't by any means, serious.

I don't really get the crossovers either, unless both series take place in the same area. Still...
