You, the reading list, give me two characters you know I'm familiar
with from different fandoms, and I'll give you a dialogue between them,
without justifying how the crossover would work, how their worlds
clashed, or how they could even meet each other -- just a silly
crossover conversation for fun with no backstory
Crossover away! And multiple requests are fine.

Date: 2011-08-28 09:42 pm (UTC)“Riff is overprotective. Pay it no mind.”
“Protectiveness can be a valuable trait in a butler.” A pause. “That vial, it is arsenic, is it not?”
“…yes. I’m impressed you recognize it.”
A smile. “What sort of butler would I be, if I could not do even that?”
“Is your master regularly the victim of such things?”
“No, but I must always be aware. May I?”
“I’d rather not. You might drop it.” A thin smile. “There would be an awful fuss if you poisoned yourself.”
“I have survived arsenic poisoning before, but if you insist.”
“Oh?” Another smile. “You are an interesting man to be a butler. Is there any chance I would be able to convince you to come to my estates?”
“Is your butler less than satisfactory?”
“Not at all. He is most capable. Merely somewhat fussy. And you intrigue me.”
A polite smile and a bow. “I am flattered, but I fear I must refuse. I feel I am best suited to my current position.”
“Ah, a pity. Nevertheless, I may be calling on your master soon. A man who keeps you by his side must live a fascinating life.”
“I will inform him. If I may?”
“Of course. Send your master my regards.”
Sort of sequel to the last one
Date: 2011-08-28 10:08 pm (UTC)“…” A disbelieving stare. “No. I am waiting on my butler. He will be here soon.”
“…I see. Until he returns I will accompany you.”
A sharp glare. “That will not be necessary.”
“I’m sure your parents would prefer that you were accompanied-”
Another glare. “I am the head of the family. I am capable of looking after myself.”
“…ah. My apologies. I did not realize.”
A long pause. “You’re not leaving, are you.”
“With your permission, I would like to remain.”
“…fine. Assuming you have nothing better to be doing.”
“My own responsibilities are fulfilled.” A pause. “Your sign – you are the Earl Phantomhive?”
A sharp nod. “You should have checked that before you offered unnecessary assistance.”
“My apologies again, sir.”
“…you’re still not leaving.”
“My master would be displeased if I allowed you to come to harm by my lack of attention.”
“And who is your master that he has any business concerning himself with my fate?”
A faint smile. “I am in the employ of Count Cain Hargreaves. He encountered your butler and was quite impressed. He intends to introduce himself soon.” A faint chuckle. “The letter expressing his invitation should arrive at your estate tomorrow.”
“I see. I will... consider his invitation. Ah, Sebastian. You’re late.” The butler emerges. “Thank you for accompanying me, but I must be going. Send you master my regards.”
Sorry this took a few days...

4. Light Yagami and Malcolm Frink.
Edward Cullen and Alucard
Date: 2011-08-29 11:31 pm (UTC)"I am a monster -"
"Out of my head, sparkle boy. You can't handle what you'll find."
"You can tell - what are you?"
"You call yourself a monster, boy." A grin with too many teeth, smoke curling in the corners of the room. "You know nothing of monsters."
"I am a soulless creature who lives off murder-"
"Let me show you."
"...oh sh-"
Light and Malcolm
Date: 2011-08-29 11:35 pm (UTC)"Kilokahn. He's from outer space."
"...right. And you draw viruses and he... animates them and they cause trouble in the internet."
"Yes. Brilliant, isn't it?"
"....that's not how programming viruses works."
"What are you talking ab-"
"That's not actually how anything works."
"Clearly you're just too inferior to understand. Shoo, while I design something the syber squad will never defeat!"
"Somehow, I can *hear* you misspell that."
"Hmm? Why are you still here?"
"...nothing. How do you spell your name again?"
"...why?"
"No reason."
Grell + Captain Planet
Date: 2011-09-02 01:22 am (UTC)"Go away. I'm working." A sideways glance. "And you're not on my list."
"Your work is destroying the planet!"
"Pff, do you know what these things would do if uncontrolled?"
"They'd make oxygen and help ecosystems to thrive!"
A long silence.
"...what are you."
"I'm Captian Planet! I will protect Mother Gaia - Hey!"
"You're quick. I wonder what color your blood is?"
"...you're not a logger."
"....do I look like one? Do you have any idea what flannel feels like?"
".....nevermind, misunderstanding, carry on...."
Olivier + Eddie
Date: 2011-09-05 12:24 am (UTC)"...you."
"You've heard of me? I'm flattered -" Catches sight of her rank, "....and I've heard of you, ice queen. Need some help warming up?"
"I have more important things to do. Excuse me."
"What, leaving the party so soon? Need to go rescue your brother again?"
"My brother survived Ishval -"
"Yeah, I've heard stories about that."
"I'm certain you have. I've heard plenty about you as well. The only reason you haven't been shot by your commanders is because you're too useful."
"Hah! Fair enough. Hey, you free?"
"No. Unlike you, I have useful things to be doing. Go freeze to death, if you would."
"It'd take more than the blizzards to kill me, cutie."
"Is that a challenge?"
"...ha! I like you. You need some firepower around here?"
".... we'll see. I'll make use of you somehow."
"I'm lookin' forward to it."

Emoboys confuse Arshad.
Date: 2011-08-31 04:23 am (UTC)"....I'm straight."
"...shit, are you a guy? Damn, you fucking emo kids..."
*dour look* "Yes. There are girls over there, since you apparently can't tell."
*snort* "Your fault for being so damned girly. And I've already bought you a drink, so suck it up."
*stares at it, then turns away* "No thanks."
"Bitch."
"Whore."
"...if you're not gonna drink that..."
"Go for it. Drunken whore."
"Pff." *downs it* "'m Arshad, by the way. You?"
"Yagmur. I'm in the band."
"Cool. The one with the really perky lead?"
"Heh. Yeah." Yagmur watches Ferman talk with fans across the room.
"'s he always like that? What's he on?"
"Mostly, and nothing as far as I know."
"Damn." Arshad watches Yagmur smile as he watches Ferman. "...thought you said you were straight."
A glare. "Go throw up in a ditch."
"Fine. I can see where I'm not wanted... bitch."
These two are hard.
Date: 2011-09-05 12:10 am (UTC)"...thank you. Yours is as well, miss...?"
"Oh, I'm sorry! I'm Elizabeth. And you are?"
"Merryweather. My brother is hosting this party."
"Oh, really? That's marvelous! He is quite handsome... but not as much as my fiance." A smile.
"The earl, yes? He is... cute. My brother likes him." Or just his butler, she doesn't say.
"Come with me, I'll introduce you!" She grabs Merry's arm - Merry pulls back. "Hmm?"
"...nothing, I'm sorry. I just, um, need to find my brother..."
"It's okay. The earl isn't as scary as people say. And they're probably talking, anyway."
"...okay."

Date: 2011-08-30 02:38 am (UTC)Roy + Kaiba
Date: 2011-09-02 01:24 am (UTC)"Alchemy is bullshit."
A stare. "...look. Who cares how I did it. Just get out of the way so that I can light the campfire."
"I'll light it myself."
"You know how? Aren't you a businessman?"
He lights it easily. "Do you know how to do anything other than parlor tricks?"
"...of course."
"Good. Maybe you won't be entirely useless."
"...just hand me the food."
"Fine. I'll take first watch."
"Fine."
Kaiba + Aoshi (Not particularly exciting, perhaps, but....)
Date: 2011-09-02 01:29 am (UTC)"..."
"Would you like some tea?"
"Fine."
"Here."
"...Thank you."
A nod. "I will go train. Would you like to join me?"
Kaiba gathers up his own kodachi. "Will you be willing to spar?"
"Of course. Come with me."
Roy + Aoshi
Date: 2011-09-02 01:47 am (UTC)A glare. Roy notices the gravestones.
"...oh. I'm terribly sorry. I didn't realize."
"Hmph."
"...friends of yours?"
Another glare. "My men." Roy's eyes widen. "They died protecting me."
A long silence. Roy glances to the gravestones, worrying his lip in his teeth. Then he turns to them and salutes sharply before turning back.
"I hope they have found peace."
"...I'm working on it."
"Good."
"...the town's to west."
"Thank you."
Re: Roy + Aoshi
Date: 2011-09-02 10:24 pm (UTC)I like how Roy and Kaiba have a challenging feel to their conversation. And I love the hint of facing an outside menace in the “Do you know how to do anything other than parlor tricks/…of course/Good” and it’s acceptance of doing whatever it takes.
In contrast, there’s a really peaceful feel to Kaiba and Aoshi, the sense that they’re not talking because they don’t need to, there’s an odd restfulness to them, and the sense that sparring is all the communication they need. (Insert obligatory fangirl squeezing over Kaiba having dual koachi).
And I like the way you highlighted the bond Roy and Aoshi share as soldiers – and as officers who haven’t always used their talents well.
Re: Roy + Aoshi
Date: 2011-09-04 11:36 pm (UTC)Aoshi is a warrior, and Kaiba can accept that. They'd make sense to each other on that level, I think - comfortable with the distance and the silence.
Like I said - Roy and Aoshi were my favorite, and I still feel like I didn't do it justice. Then again, that might just be Roy - he definitely has a sense of "Is this all I can do?" to him, there.

Date: 2011-09-04 11:51 pm (UTC)"My....what are you talking about."
"Oh, playing ignorant eh?" *grin* "Don't worry, I won't tell you've got a God over your shoulder. I've got one of my own."
"...you have a notebook?"
"Ha! No, I don't need one of those. I've killed too many gods for them to just *give* me their tools."
"Interesting. What's your name?"
"...really think I would fall for that one, boy?" A sigh. "I know how that fancy notebook of yours works." A slim smile. "Not that it would. I have no name but vengeance and no identity but power. The tools of those parasites have no danger to me."
"I'm sure. What do you want with me then?"
"Hah, nothing. You can chase your dreams with your god. I have my own goals." He leaves. Light blinks, and then checks his pockets.
"....bastard stole my wallet."

Date: 2011-09-07 11:53 pm (UTC)And I spent like five minutes trying to figure out if the Notebook would work on Atemu what with the whole Lost Name thing. Then I decided that Bakura wouldn't bother because it would be cheating.
