*head in hands*

If a purely hypothetical someone were to have a vague and equally hypothetical desire to write a Sherlock Holmes/White Collar crossover...

...what would you want them to include?

handflap handflap, now I am even more excited about the White Collar marathon I have planned for this Thursday. YOU WIN SOMETHING I GUESS. A medal in persuasion? Better believe I will be hurling thoughts at you as soon as I've seen it.

Basically I have no idea what to suggest, being currently familiar with only one of these fandoms, but from what I know about the one I don't know, I-I am super excited anyway. Oh wait! MORIARTY OBVIOUSLY. Lots of meta about knowing your best enemy as well as you know yourself.

Costumes! Neal with an Irish accent (real or not)!

[identity profile] the-grynne.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
And class issues, of course... Background to Neal and Peter, did they go to Oxbridge, how did they get so knowledgeable about art, etc.

Ridiculous amounts of gay!

...I have seen neither.

I just kind of want that on principle.

:D?

WATCH THEM BOTH. Once you have done so you will realise that no crossover of this sort could possibly avoid being full of ridiculous amounts of gay.

*g* Just think of that episode of Bone where they were in London.

Oh pish tish, who needs THAT.

I imagine you'll be moving the White Collar characters to Victorian London rather than the Holmes characters to 21st century America? Is Irene Adler going to be in it? This is just Loz Asks Questions O'Clock now, I don't even know.

I'm not even lugging in my external to answer this so my resonse will have none of the letter that starts the word izza. Or carriage returns. BUT. OMG. FAHYE. BEST IDEA EVER. BEST. IDEA. EVER. I DEMAND JOKES ABOUT HOLMES' RELATIVE VERMEER (YES THIS IS CANON WHATEVER OH ALSO I DON'T HAVE A CLOSE ARENTHESIS. HAVE A BRACKET.] I love this. I LOVE THIS. Can we just erase canon Kate and relace her with Irene Adler also I don't have a question mark. BARTER SYSTEMS. ALSO NEAL AND HOLMES GEEK OUT ABOUT FORGERY. MUST OCCUR.

[identity profile] polaris-starz.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
I think that not only would Peter and Watson bond, but Peter would get on unexpectedly well with Lestrade.

It would also be funny if Holmes and Neal got into a "friendly" competition over which of them was better at various criminal skills, like lockpicking and smooth-talking.

In conclusion this idea is A+++ AWESOME.

Irene is definitely going to be in it!

[identity profile] lo0o0ony-lauren.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
\o/ film canon Irene or book canon Irene?

Can we just erase canon Kate and relace her with Irene Adler -- I WAS ACTUALLY PLANNING ON JUST THAT. (Holmes: Oh, she's calling herself what now?)

Hahahahah tell me about Vermeer! I wish I had copies of the Conan Doyle stories, I have only read a tiny little bit of actual Holmes canon and it would be nice to know more.

Hahah and Neal is convinced he should win by default because he is ACTUALLY A CRIMINAL.

Haha, I'm catching up on my flist after a day of being away from my computer - thus I was working backwards in time and saw this post before encountering that one XD

But um, now I have seen it and it only intensifies the need to be watching it right nowww. (Could that promo pic be dripping with any more OT3 vibes?!!?)

The answer to that is ONLY IF SOMEONE WAS NAKED.

It'll have to be film, I've never read any of the book canon involving Irene.

I read The Hound of the Baskervilles when I was a kid and had nightmares for weeks of huge dogs outside my window.
