MY BRAIN IS BROKEN

So I must pass on to you all how [livejournal.com profile] octopedingenue is TORTURING ME with the mere idea of a Princess Tutu/Blade of the Immortal crossover.

I have not yet watched Princess Tutu but I have read magicnoire's posts and listened to calixa's play-by-play account, and all I can say is:

OH!

MY!

GOD!

*goes to read post*

She doesn't have to say much, and the idea worms its way in and KILLS YOU.

TIGHTS!

ANOTSU IN TIGHTS!

MY BRAIN WENT TO BAD PLACES!

It's very possible that there is no fandom that _Princess Tutu_ wouldn't cross over with.

I did that icon-pairing meme and found Drosselmeyer/Delirium, for instance, which was the most sensible thing on it.

But then, I'm on a bit of a meta kick and am now imagining Duck dancing with Harold Crick.

Darn straight. You could even cross Princess Tutu and RPF, though the world would explode afterward.

Tutu/Sandman=brain.happy.place. Does it count as being conceived in the Dreaming if you're the progeny of a dead deus ex machina and a living cultural archetype*?

*acceptable happybrain alternative to Delirium in order of preference: Scheherazade; Mother Goose; Seven Characters In Search Of An Author And Apparently An Orgy; etc.

And now I'm picturing Tutu/original Star Wars fic.

Which would be totally whack, and if someone actually pulled it off, would also make me really, really irrationally happy.

"Pay no attention to my boorish colleague, Miss Edel. I'm afraid our little excursions into some of the rougher planets have given R2D2 the refined vocabulary of a Vislarkian guttermutt."

"There is no need for apologies. Words alone are only sounds; it falls to a raven to assemble them into a writing desk."

"Of course. Yes. So good to be back in intelligible company again."

See? This makes me very happy. :-)

No need for details. Just the idea of Ahiru in the same room as a guy whose limbs regularly gets chopped off is quite a special vision to boggle the mind.

I feel I'm missing out by having not seen Blade of the Immortal.

[identity profile] telophase.livejournal.com 2007-11-20 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
It's an awesome, awesome manga with most excellent art (http://meganbmoore.livejournal.com/376336.html) set in 17th/18th century Japan. I'll point you towards [livejournal.com profile] chomiji's BotI posts (http://chomiji.livejournal.com/tag/blade+of+the+immortal) - you can click the cut tags and read the spoilers if you want or not. :)

It's my #1 favorite manga.
