And you know what that means...

So please comment below with a fandom (that I'm familiar with) and a book/author/book series (depending on how charitable you're feeling towards me) and I'll give you the parallels. (And, hopefully, will be funny with it...)

Phooey. Now I want a crossover where the fandom is Life on Mars and the books are molesworth (Down with Skool!).

Or, failing molesworth: Biggles.

Sort of "this is me sam tyler the curse of manchester polise which is the forse i am in. it was uterly wet and weedy but i had a accident and wen i woke up and now i get to kick crims with ma grate frend hunt. this is chris skeleton he is a gurl and sissy. he skips around the plase and sais hullo clouds hullo sky."?

What I would need is someone to do me the drawings of sam et al in the style of Ronald Searle...

Yes, that's it exactly.

What I would need is someone to do me the drawings of sam et al in the style of Ronald Searle...

*thinks about the pile of unfinished fic on the computer*

*is still nonetheless seriously tempted*

cautiously How many drawings would we be talking about, then?

[m31andy.livejournal.com]

At least one each of the principals, but, of course, Searles drawings are rather endearingly rough.

Hmm, let me see:

Sam = nigel
Gene = peason
Chris = fotherington-tomas
Rathbone or Morgan? = Headmaster, can't remember his name.
Ray = grabber

Annie would have to be a generic pupil. Let me see. Annie would be "a gurl and a swot".

Ha, and Phyllis is so definitely Matron!!!

So at the minimum - five. One for each of CID. Any more is a bonus. What do you reckon?

Oh God, the possibility of another collaboration? I really am the fandom bike...

Annie is a gurl and a swot chiz chiz chiz.

Tell you what. Let me work on this over the weekend (will involve my picking up a copy of Skool from the local library, since my own copy is fugitive) and see what I can do. I'd like to try my hand at Sam!nigel and Gene!peason at least, but it will require careful study of the canon first.

If you're happy with the outcome, we can proceed. If my pastiche is completely FAIL, then of course you have veto rights as any fule kno.

This is making me ridiculously happy ♥ ♥ ♥

I'll get to re-reading our copy then. Better to know the canon you are pastiching!

Or, of course, "my name is nigel molesworth i had an acident and i woak up at st custards. am i mad in a coma or bak at skool? Whatevers happened its like i've landed on a diferunt planet. now maybe if i can work out the reason i can give up latin."

Aww...

This is the first time I've ever wanted to cuddle nigel molesworth ♥
