Talk About A Creator/Someone Who Inspired You - Snowflake Challenge #10

One of the things I really enjoy doing is crossovers, setting a McShep love story against the backdrop of an indie video game. I've posted two crossover fics: (Subnautica and The Long Dark), and I have a rough plan of another (Firewatch). I probably wouldn't have posted them online if I hadn't read respoftw's A Region of Space, an SGA crossover with The Cube (one of my favourite David Hewlett films). It plunges John, Rodney, Teyla and Ronon into the cube and roughly follows the film's plot. It's epic and creepy and totally captures the essence of the film while flipping it on its head, instead of the "every man for himself" feel of the film it focusses on team dynamics and how that aids their survival. All of respoftw's fics are excellent, but this work in particular inspired me greatly to get my own crossover ideas written and shared. She's one of the first fanfic writers that I got into and subscribed to cause I know whatever she writes I'm going to enjoy.

I also *adore* crossovers. Merging two or more canons is such a delight.

Glad you found inspiration to bring your own crossovers to life!

Me too. There's something special about merging two awesome things into something greater.

I'm so glad you found someone to inspire you in your own fanwork. What a lovely post.

Thank you! I hope she doesn't mind being singled out...
