Et de douze

12 – Have you ever attempted an "adaptation" fic of a favorite book or movie but set in a different fandom?

Not that I remember. (It's late.) This is a Borgesian thing for me: no way am I writing 10K words when I can get a cheaper laugh by describing the idea. Which I do, constantly, because my mind works like this. Remember Trapped In Rukia's Closet? Or Everybody Loves Johan? Or Dude, Where's My Zanpakutou? In the past week lazulisong kindly reblogged Sherlock x The Hobbit x Temeraire crossover fanart so I didn't even have to talk it out. I'm waiting for someone to do this with X-Men and Jane Eyre.

*considers your words* I don't get what's fun about X-men and Jane; perhaps it would make sense to me if you wrote it out. XD

I watched the two movies back to back and my brain has more or less mixed up the two (the fandom is all: BUT LOVE! BUT MORAL CONVICTION! THE ANGST!), although the Jane role is really split between the two Xavier siblings, one of whom is the teenaged girl and the other one who has the inconvenient principles. To make a properly confusing trifecta of Michael Fassbender movies I suspect I should have started with a rewatch of Inglorious Basterds, which was about Nazi-hunting.

Also, it's not like the Internet is in lack of gifs of James McAvoy in period costume.

I remember that 20 Blatant Lies About Jotaro was, like, three lies. ಠ_ಠ
