otw_onlinecon is hosting a series of challenges, today's being "Blast from Your Fannish Past," in which participants are encouraged to "Write/vid/create art for your first ever fandom"--or, alternatively, "Crossover your First Fandom with your Current Fandom."

This started me thinking nostalgically about Twin Peaks, which I could make the case for being my first fandom--at least, the first show about which I was obsessional--and then about due South (in the "current" category, for lo, I am a stick-in-the-mud). I started thinking, "Hmmmm -- somebody really needs to write that story where Agent Cooper, in following up his investigations of One Eyed Jacks, runs into one Constable Benton Fraser, who is also investigating related evil weirdness, and stuff ensues."

And then I thought, "But you know -- aren't Cooper and Fraser really kind of the same person, sort of, in some respects?"

And then I thought, "No, here's the deal, Cooper is what you'd get if you smooshed Fraser and Mulder together in some kind of unholy brain-meld. Kind of, sort of. Yeah."

Yeah. The thought pleases me, anyway. Just as it pleases me to be posting, even if briefly and inanely, on matters fannish and entirely unrelated to moving, unpacking, household chaos, and other tediosities.

I long ago decided that Cooper, Fraser, The Tick, and Corporal Carrot are all the same exact person on different medications.

*cracks up* This is absolutely brilliant!

Dorothy Marley wrote a due South/Twin Peaks crossover back in1999, and it's good.

"Cold Heart" by Dorothy Marley
PAIRING: Fraser/Dale Cooper, Fraser/Vecchio. Twin Peaks Crossover.

It's archived at both Ex-Wood and the due Slash Archive. Worth reading.

And a quick shout out that I'm delighted about your new job and new apt and that you're getting a chance to settle down in your own space. And equally delighted to see you post again!

Hi, if you're wondering who I am, treewishes recommended you as one of the fun fandom folks she knows in Seattle. I am moving there next month for a new job and know absolutely no one (other than a friend of my husband's) so I thought I would drop in and say hello.
