Oh god of all the questions to be asked. XD

I've had countless crossover ideas in the course of my many years of fandom shenanigans; some are still brewing in docs, others have died out with time, and a few cling to my consciousness but never end up going anywhere or are ever written out on a doc because of the sheer absurdity of them. It doesn't help that the ideas have more or less exploded as of recently. SO MANY CROSSOVERS TOO LITTLE TIME

Most of the time I stick with writing oneshots centered around a direct crossover between two universes or finding some kind of neutral ground, where Character A from Universe 1 interacts with Character B from Universe 2, and usually, any sort of novella fic I'll (sometimes) write are usually orientated around crossover ships.

In terms of crack, the most epic thus far came from a chat with my partner in crime. She said that Soul was a likely candidate for being the ectobiological paradox child of Dave Strider and Karkat Vantas. Cue me coming up with all kinds of crazy shenanigans involving slime, ectobabies, fluffy Veilstuck, and shared custody within the timespan of five minutes. Bounced the idea of some kind of fic around during an English class, played with the notion, but never ended up doing it because seriously, where the fuck would I go with that?

Most crossovers I entertain with these days normally revolve around the two (soon to be three, hopefully) Team ICO titles or the Legend of Zelda series, but the most recent fic idea that I've been BURNING to write but somehow never got around to getting down was a Portal/Soul Eater crossover, with Chrona as the silent Chell, Medusa as the dripping-with-sarcasm-and-neurotoxin GLaDOS, Stein as the slowly-descending-into-madness and poisoned-to-death-by-moon-rocks Cave Johnson, and Noah as the bumbling personality core Wheatley.

Of course I would just be copy-pasting the Portal 2 plot in terms of a storyline so I scrapped the idea after two weeks of brewing up scenes and dialogue, and still kinda regret it to this day.

Sorry this got lengthy fast.
